Bunian saw the black shadow standing in the middle of the puppets, and protected Xiao Zhimiao behind him in horror and disgust, "It's him...it's the evil puppet master!"
Seeing that the countdown was down to the last minute, Xiao Zhimiao took out a short knife from the system backpack and quickly ran towards the witch doll, preparing to take out her heart.
As soon as she raised the knife, the thorn whip was whipped at her. Bunian threw himself behind Xiao Zhimiao to block the whip for her, and he was whipped away and hit the wall.
Another whip fell towards Xiao Zhimiao immediately. Xiao Zhimiao gritted his teeth and received the whip forcefully. The short knife cut open the chest of the doll, revealing the heart with a faint red light inside.
Xiao Zhimiao put his hand into the witch's chest and pulled out the heart.
panel:
[Congratulations to the player for obtaining [Doll Heart], a soul bead condensed from the hearts of the Night tribesmen, which will give you a chance to resurrect from the dead. 】
Xiao Zhimiao put the heart into the system backpack, endured the pain in his body and rolled to the bench next to him, blocking the Punisher Puppet's sight, waiting for the countdown to reach zero, and bringing the two of them back to the original time point.
Xiao Zhimiao could see Xu Zhilan hiding behind the high platform through the gap in the chair. He had already used healing skills to recover from his injuries. He was looking towards her and threw a healing spell at her.
Xiao Zhimiao's injuries were recovering quickly. He looked at the countdown in front of him, 31, 30, 29...
Two thick whips fell behind her with fierce wind, and the chair behind her instantly turned into pieces and scattered.
Xu Zhilan swung the whip towards Xiao Zhimiao and wrapped it around her waist. With a strong hand, the golden whip pulled Xiao Zhimiao towards him.
Only halfway through, the thorn whip behind her was thrown towards Xiao Zhimiao and wrapped around her waist. The thorn whip pulled Xiao Zhimiao in their direction with a huge force.
Xu Zhilan tightly grasped the whip in his hand and was also carried away.
In the midst of lightning and flint, a long bow appeared in Xiao Zhimiao's hand. He turned around in the air and fired directly at the puppet monster in front of him.
Crimson magic power exploded in front of them, knocking Xiao Zhimiao away again. However, just as she shot the magic arrow, another puppet monster whipped out a thorn whip at her.
Xu Zhilan pulled his whip hard, pulled Xiao Zhimiao in front of him, turned around, held her in his arms, and turned around to block the whip for her.
The whip was so powerful that Xiao Zhimiao saw blood bursting out in front of his eyes. The two of them were whipped to the ground. Xu Zhilan was knocked out of breath by the whip and fell into her arms not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
"Xu Zhilan!"
Xiao Zhimiao hugged Xu Zhilan and looked at his back, which was a bloody mess. Part of the flesh and blood had been removed from the back down to the thighs, and the bones were exposed.
“The outsiders are so bold that they dare to steal things from God’s hand.”
Xiao Zhimiao looked at the black shadow between the two dolls and spoke. It called itself a god.
When Xiao Zhimiao saw the last two seconds of the countdown, she coldly uttered: "Bullshit god!"
When the black shadow flashed in front of her, a burst of red light struck, and Xiao Zhimiao's eyes fell into darkness again. After a few seconds, the scene became clear again, and she returned to the original time and place.
"Xu Zhilan!"
Xiao Zhimiao's body was almost soaked with the blood from Xu Zhilan's body. His passive skills were slowly recovering his injuries. He gradually woke up and groaned in pain from the injuries on his body.
"Fuck it! It hurts so much!"
Xu Zhilan cursed as soon as she woke up, hugged Xiao Zhimiao's waist and moaned.
"Xiao Zhi, it's a good thing you didn't get this whipping, otherwise you would have been scolded in pain."
Xiao Zhimiao looked at Xu Zhilan who was buried in her arms, reached out and pushed his big head that was arched hard, "Get up."
Xu Zhilan let out a long "hiss", "I blocked such a fierce whip for you, and I was beaten to death, and you still pushed me away!"
Xiao Zhimiao twitched the corner of his mouth and grabbed Xu Zhilan out of his arms unceremoniously, "What is your profession? Has your brain been taken out too?"
Xu Zhilan's little thoughts were exposed, he grinned, and cast a healing spell on himself, and the injuries on his body healed quickly.
"Now that you have the heart, what are you going to do next?"
Xiao Zhimiao stood there and watched as the retroactive magic circle on the platform beneath his feet had disappeared. It seemed that this magic circle could only be used once.
But now she is the only one with a stand-in doll. If according to the instructions in Bunian's diary, the way to kill the boss must be to enter the death state, then Xu Zhilan and the others will definitely die.
Xiao Zhimiao looked at the time on the system interface. Seventeen minutes had passed since they entered the magic circle, and the time on both sides was passing at the same speed.
Xiao Zhimiao looked towards the direction of the hotel. The magic circle with red light still hung above the hotel, and the blue light showing Mu Yuan's health on the bracelet dimmed a little.
"Let's go back to the hotel first."
Now that she has obtained the soul beads and the stand-in doll, she only needs a curse to kill her.
If the cursed nail is not used against the boss, it would be enough to have these two things in her hand.
But according to the clues she has now, this thing is most likely used to deal with the boss.
Now that there is no traceback magic circle, they can no longer go back in time to get the curse. They can only see if there is any other way to pass the level.
Xiao Zhimiao and Xu Zhilan walked all the way down from the top of the church without any obstruction. When they ran to the alley outside the hotel, they were shocked by the sight in front of them and stopped in their tracks.
There were corpses of puppets everywhere outside the alley, and the alley was blocked by all kinds of puppets. They were all squeezing into the hotel, as if they were protecting something.
The hotel was already half-collapsed. A burst of white light flashed, and many puppets were ejected.
The two saw several sharp swords passing through the puppet monsters, piercing them and cutting them into pieces.
Suddenly, a large area of puppets fell down.
"This skill is really good!"
Even Xu Zhilan couldn't help but admire this extremely practical flying sword skill.
Someone unexpectedly rushed out of the darkness, and the sharp blade in his hand shone coldly under the light of the light and slashed at the two of them.
Xu Zhilan swung out the whip in his hand, defeating all the puppets and monsters around them, and the sharp crackle of the whip resounded through the night sky.
Xiao Zhimiao saw that Mu Yuan's blue health light was getting darker and darker, and he quickly ran towards the hotel.
Xiao Zhimiao drew her bow and shot arrows while running. The puppets and monsters that blocked her were all exploded by red arrows condensed with magic elements, and the dark alley was filled with red light.
Xu Zhilan swung his whip behind her. His attack range was wider. He could clean a large area with one whip.
Of course, it would be fine if there were just some mobs with not particularly high attack power, but when encountering a single elite monster with particularly strong abilities, Xu Zhilan's attack would be very difficult.
Fortunately, the target of these dolls was not on them, so they went in smoothly.
When Xiao Zhimiao entered the hotel, she was almost accidentally injured by Shen Mi's flying sword. She hurriedly hid aside and saw Shen Mi retracting the skill in his hand.
"Is it you?"
Shen Mi was shocked for a moment when she saw Xiao Zhimiao and Xu Zhilan. She was distracted and was stabbed into the chest by a long sword with a golden light behind her.
Shen Mi endured the pain and controlled the sword to attack backwards. He staggered forward and fell to his knees, holding the sword in his hand and inserting it into the ground to support his body.
Shen Mi looked up and saw Shangguan Yun holding a shield to block her flying sword and looking at her indifferently.
Shen Mi laughed self-deprecatingly and spat out a mouthful of blood, "I thought you would at least not attack me."
At this time, Shangguan Yun no longer looked as gentle and easy to get along with as before, and said to Shen Mi in a cold voice: "Do you think you are very noble? Since you want to be a kind fool, then you and I are enemies."
Xu Zhilan saw Shen Mi being stabbed in the back by Shangguan Yun, and looked at the two rebelling people with interest, "Hey, is this an internal fight?"
Xiao Zhimiao charged up and shot another arrow at the elite monsters outside. After temporarily knocking them away, he patted Xu Zhilan and said, "Stop watching the show and go help Mu Yuan."
At this time, Mu Yuan was walking among more than a dozen puppet elite monsters. He was also connected to two ropes condensed with magic elements. One end of the rope was connected to Mo Ke and Wendel. The two of them were tied up by the rope and could not Although they move, the magic circle under them can isolate those monsters and prevent them from being harmed.
When Xiao Zhimiao and Xu Zhilan ran out of the hotel, Mo Ke and Wendel instantly lowered their mental levels to the lowest level, and then dispelled the magic circle at the safety point.
As soon as the safety point of the magic circle was released, all the monsters in Doll Town were attracted.
Mo Ke was tightly bound by this magic rope, looking at Mu Yuan and Shen Mi with such hatred that he wanted to bite his teeth into pieces.
Originally, they only needed to drag the monster that NPC Yuna turned into to go to the basement below to find the [God's Flesh Doll] and pass the level.
But they didn't expect to be held back by Mu Yuan. They thought that even if Mu Yuan could reach 1v4, what about the puppet monsters in the entire town? Can he resist so many monsters?
Unexpectedly, Shen Mi, a wallflower, would not help them, but would still side with the assassin. With Shen Mi's ability, the four of them could definitely kill the max-level assassin if they joined forces.
Xu Zhilan waved her whip and joined Mu Yuan's battle. Xiao Zhimiao was about to step forward to help them, but when she passed by Shen Mi, she grabbed her by the corner of her clothes.
"Xiao Zhimiao..."
Shen Mi was seriously injured, but her hands were still strong, and the look she looked at Xiao Zhimiao showed a strong will to survive.
"I know you must have other ways to pass the level. Don't let Mo Ke and the others pass the level. If they find the flesh puppet of the god and pray for the god to come, only one person will survive."
As soon as Shen Mi finished speaking, Shangguan Yun, who was about to join the battle over there, saw Xiao Zhimiao, who was staying with Shen Mi, and swung several long spikes of holy magic power in his hands towards them.
Xiao Zhimiao grabbed Shen Mi and rolled her to the side. Using the cover of a collapsed wall, he quickly drew his bow and shot at Shangguan Yun.
