But shouldn’t the doll be one of the NPCs in the copy?
She also thought that she would almost finish pushing the branch line later, and Sethia would become one of the bosses.
The Carter doll kept moving forward. Xiao Zhimiao hesitated for a moment, looked at Sethia with her eyes tightly closed, and reached out to touch her cheek.
As soon as her hand touched Sethia, a system voice sounded in her head:
"Congratulations to player Xiao Zhimiao for getting his own [Stand-in Doll]. When in danger, he can use the Stand-in Doll to die on his behalf. Note that [Stand-in Doll] can only be used once."
As soon as the system finished speaking, the Sethia doll turned into a palm-sized shape. The Carter doll put the Sethia doll in Xiao Zhimiao's hand with a slightly stiff movement, then stretched out his hand and patted her head.
Pointing to the magic circle behind her, she turned around and limped into the moonlight again.
Xu Zhilan was surprised when he saw the doll in Xiao Zhimiao's hand: "It gave you a doll?"
Xiao Zhimiao turned to look at Xu Zhilan, "Yes, it's not an ordinary doll, it's a [substitute doll]."
After that, Xiao Zhimiao looked in the direction of the hotel. At this time, the hotel was shrouded in a red light magic circle, which was Mo Ke's skill.
Xiao Zhimiao glanced at the health-detecting bracelet on his hand. The blue light belonging to Mu Yuan's health was still strong.
"walk into."
No matter what this magic circle has brought them to in the past, it has now reached this point and they must go on.
Xiao Zhimiao no longer hesitated and pulled Xu Zhilan towards the retrospective magic circle.
A burst of white light flashed through the magic circle, and the two figures disappeared into the magic circle.
Xiao Zhimiao's eyes fell into darkness for a while. After a few seconds, her eyes gradually brightened. She heard a noisy sound coming from her ears. When the scene in front of her gradually became clear, a doll suddenly appeared in front of her.
When Xiao Zhimiao saw the puppet hit in the face, he kicked it directly.
"Oh, pretty sister, why did you kick my doll?"
Xiao Zhimiao followed the sound and saw a boy of thirteen or fourteen lifting the doll up from the ground and patting the dust off it.
When the young man saw Xiao Zhimiao suddenly appearing, he asked with confusion: "Sister, are you also a tourist from outside?"
Hearing the boy's inquiry, Xiao Zhimiao glanced around the surrounding environment. Looking at the colorful houses and familiar streets, she was sure that she was still in Doll Town.
Xiao Zhimiao turned around and saw Xu Zhilan watching a puppet chopping wood.
The puppet was wearing some dirty work clothes and raised the ax high. Just when it was about to chop down, Xu Zhilan kicked away the wood where the puppet had been placed.
The puppet saw that the wood had been kicked away, so he put down the ax, placed the wood on the wooden pier again, raised the ax and prepared to split the wood, and then Xu Zhilan kicked it away again.
Xiao Zhimiao: "...What are you doing?"
Xu Zhilan grinned and said, "Tease it."
"Are you three?"
After Xu Zhilan kicked down the wooden pillar of the puppet for the third time, the puppet slowly turned around and struck Xu Zhilan with the ax directly.
Xiao Zhimiao pulled Xu Zhilan aside with quick eyes and hands. Xu Zhilan whipped out the whip in his hand and cut off the puppet's hands. Suddenly, cotton wool flew all over the sky.
The puppet had broken hands and still rushed towards Xu Zhilan. Xiao Zhimiao saw a ray of red light coming from the puppet's sewn eyes.
The puppet had no arms, so it could only hit Xu Zhilan with its head. Xu Zhilan kicked it to the ground and stepped on its back, while the puppet struggled under his feet.
"You...you broke my work doll! I'm going to tell my parents!"
The young man glared at Xu Zhilan and ran home.
Xu Zhilan asked Xiao Zhimiao: "What was he talking about?"
Xu Zhilan couldn't understand what the young man said at all, but Xiao Zhimiao understood it, just like she could understand the words in the diary, she could understand it naturally.
Xiao Zhimiao: "You broke his doll, and he went back to his parents to complain."
Xu Zhilan knew that Xiao Zhimiao could understand the words of this world, so he didn't find it strange that she could understand the language of this world.
Xu Zhilan said "tsk" and squatted down to check the dolls, "It seems that this is the strange predecessor of those dolls."
As he spoke, Xu Zhilan stretched out his hand to pull off the cotton wool on the doll, as if a naughty child had destroyed the doll beyond recognition.
Xiao Zhimiao looked around the town. At this time, the two of them were no longer at the location where they had entered the retrospect magic circle before, but under a grass shed on a small hillside. There was a lot of wood piled inside, and there was also a stable with two horses.
and a donkey.
Xiao Zhimiao didn't know when she could go back to that time. As soon as the thought of knowing the time crossed her mind, the system panel popped up.
In front of her is a traceback magic circle pattern with the date written on it and a countdown beating, and there are only 10 minutes left.
Xiao Zhimiao roughly calculated the time they had just arrived, and it was only about five minutes. Based on this time, the time limit for backtracking the magic circle was fifteen minutes.
In other words, after fifteen minutes, they will return to the original time point.
Xiao Zhimiao looked at the date on the magic circle, which read August 12, 6217, the year God came.
August 12th......
Xiao Zhimiao took out the diary and flipped through it quickly, and turned to this date. This is the evil puppet master Bunian recorded, and it was on this day that the residents of the puppet town were turned into puppets.
Later, Bunian awakened the puppet Sethia to fight the evil puppet master.
At this time, Scythia was still enshrined in the church, and her heart had not yet been taken away.
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhimiao's thoughts were all cleared up. She knew the significance of this retrospective magic circle in this copy.
Xiao Zhimiao grabbed Xu Zhilan from the ground.
"I understand, Xu Zhilan."
Xu Zhilan patted the cotton wool on his body and asked, "What do you know?"
Xiao Zhimiao: "This retrospective magic circle is placed here to tell us that the stand-in dolls and soul beads are in the doll town in the past. If we want these two things, we must go there to get them. The cursed nail may also be there."
in the past."
Xu Zhilan: "It's all in the past? Didn't you just get a [Stand-in Doll]?"
Xiao Zhimiao: "I still don't quite understand what the connection is between me and this doll, or the original owner of this doll, but I now know that each player has an exclusive [Stand-in Doll], and players must
Go back in time and find the puppet master Bunian to make it, because my [Stand-in Doll] was made by Bunian, and the soul bead is the heart of this doll. Her heart was taken away by someone unknown.
We can only go back to the past to get it."
After that, Xiao Zhimiao pulled Xu Zhilan and ran towards the church, "Hurry up, time is running out. This retrospective magic circle only lasts for fifteen minutes!"
Xiao Zhimiao had used up Mu Yuan's skills and could only run to the church with all her strength. She must get the soul beads.
Xu Zhilan looked at Xiao Zhimiao while running. He saw desire in her eyes for the first time, a strong desire to get something, and even felt some anxiety in her for the first time.
Xiao Zhimiao was running, and Xu Zhilan's hand was held behind her back, turning into Xu Zhilan running with her in front.
Without Mu Yuan's acceleration skills, Xu Zhilan, whose attribute panel is already at full level, can run much faster than Xiao Zhimiao. Contact with him can also continuously restore various attributes from his passive skills.
His skin is always cold, but his hands are always warm when he activates his skills.
The direction of the church was quite close to them, and they met many residents of Doll Town along the way. Most of them looked a little dull. Xiao Zhimiao and Xu Zhilan also felt a huge pressure of magic, which gradually made them breathless.
Come.
When they arrived at the door of the church, they looked up into the sky and saw a looming magic circle.
Seeing this magic circle, Xu Zhilan finally put away his careless expression and said with a slightly solemn expression: "This magic circle is very powerful. It seems that this dungeon boss is not ordinary difficult."
After looking at the magic circle, the two entered the church. At this time, there was no magic circle set up at the door of the church. The church was bright and clean, and there was only one person praying inside.
The man sat at the front and prayed to the red-haired doll in the middle of the church. He turned his head when he heard the movement, revealing a young and handsome face.
After seeing Xiao Zhimiao, the young man suddenly stood up from his seat and looked at Xiao Zhimiao in shock.
"Sesia?!"
The man was shocked for a moment and then ran towards Xiao Zhimiao with great excitement. Xu Zhilan kicked him away, whipped the whip in his hand towards the witch doll on the high platform, entangled the witch doll and pulled it in front of them.
"What are you doing?!" The man saw Xu Zhilan pulling the witch doll to the ground, and rushed over to snatch the doll back, "Don't touch my Sethia!"
After saying that, the man was startled. He looked at the doll and then at Xiao Zhimiao, not knowing which one to care about.
Xiao Zhimiao looked at this man and asked, "Are you... Bunian?"
When Bunian heard Xiao Zhimiao calling his name, he knelt down at her feet and said, "Sesia, I am Bunian! I am your most devout believer!"
Xu Zhilan glanced at Bunian in surprise, and in just a moment, he took out a dagger and prepared to take out the heart of the witch doll.
Before Xu Zhilan's dagger fell, a thick whip with thorns whipped towards him and Xiao Zhimiao from behind.
Xu Zhilan was unable to dodge and received a strong whip. He was whipped directly into the stone wall of the high platform in the middle.
Xiao Zhimiao was jumped by Bunian and hugged her to avoid the whip and rolled to the side.
Xu Zhilan propped up his body and saw two tall SM doll sisters walking towards them slowly from the door of the church, and said, "Damn!"
He was almost at odds with this whip-wielding puppet.
