Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 97: Growth-oriented choices
When Lin Sanjiu recalled that day afterwards, she often couldn't help but wonder: If she had taken advantage of the puppet master's hand to stop and bumped her head forward, wouldn't it have been wrong? Will there be a future version of myself? Or...she, Lin Sanjiu, had been destined to take such a path since the day when the extreme temperature **** descended?
——But she also knew that the idea of butting her head with her hands was to oversimplify the matter.
Because when Lin Sanjiu's forehead was pointed, she couldn't even move.
It’s not that someone held her down or restricted her movements, but when facing the puppet master, the meaning that was inadvertently revealed from the other party made people feel as if they were facing an unpredictable abyss. The monster, in the dark mist, can only be seen as a vague outline - just like this, it is already frightening and makes the legs weak.
Lin Sanjiu didn’t have the courage to move.
The puppet master who gave her this impression had a nonchalant expression. Judging from his appearance, I am afraid that most of his attention was not on Lin Sanjiu at all.
[Wusu Poison] This little episode only stopped him for a few dozen seconds; when the puppet master retracted his hand, Lin Sanjiu noticed a red ring on his finger—— The puppeteer took off the ring, avoiding her skin, and pressed the ring on her forehead. Then he put it on and sighed: "You are not a visa officer. I originally hid my treasure." It’s on you..."
It seemed that when Lin Sanjiu looked out of the container, he had already memorized her face.
The ring should be a detection instrument that can identify who is the visa officer. It is indeed much more convenient to have this - Lin Sanjiu glanced at it and then plucked up the courage to say: "Man, puppet master... …My lord…”
She also followed Shen Lianqi's call.
The puppet master walked past her without looking back, just said "huh?" and pressed the ring on Hu Changzai's forehead in the same manner. A plastic mannequin that he had never seen before immediately took a step forward and stood close to Lin Sanjiu's face.
"The visa officer in this area is dead..." Lin Sanjiu's mind flashed back to Fang Dan sitting on the ground with a knife hilt exposed in his stomach. She took a deep breath, deliberately ignored the dummy beside her, and smiled: "I saw it with my own eyes."
The puppet master paused.
"Is that so?" His tone was still calm and polite, and his golden eyes slowly turned to Lin Sanjiu. "Then why didn't you tell me when I asked you just now?"
She felt a thump in her heart, but she didn't think it was serious. She was about to open her mouth to explain--suddenly she glanced out of the corner of her eye and realized that Shen Lianqi's face was ten times uglier than before. She was stunned and kept the words in her mouth without saying them.
"Since you know how to call me "sir", you should also know my preferences." The puppet master's expression did not change significantly, "Let me wait on the stage stupidly, but you are holding the answer in your belly. Are you talking to make fun of me?"
"This...is not..."
Things don't look good.
Just when Lin Sanjiu was filled with regret and tensed up, unexpectedly, the puppet master turned around and walked towards the next person - not paying attention to her at all.
From this point of view, this person's personality does not seem to be too violent - this idea just came to her mind, and she suddenly heard a low, crying sentence from beside her: "Oops... …”
It's Shen Lianqi.
"What's wrong?" Lin Sanjiu asked hurriedly.
Shen Lianqi looked at her with a complicated look - "Based on the puppet master's temper, he just let you go, don't you understand what this means?"
How could Lin Sanjiu understand.
Looking at her still confused look, Shen Lianqi stamped his feet and sighed: "You look smart, but why are you so stupid! In the eyes of the puppet master, we are all just pieces of dead flesh. , that’s why he doesn’t bother to take action against you..."
He turned pale and murmured to himself: "It seems that the rumor is very likely to be true... We can't go on like this..."
Perhaps seeing something wrong with him, the plastic mannequin standing next to Shen Lianqi raised his hand with a wooden face. Only then did Lin Sanjiu realize that none of the dummies standing next to them had anything in their hands. Gun - the model reached out to grab Shen Lianqi's arm, but the latter suddenly waved his arm, and a sharp bone spur appeared from his elbow. The bone spur was wrapped in the wind and sliced off a piece of the model's arm without any sound. Only palm.
The palm that originally looked like human skin and flesh turned into a plastic product as it detached from the arm and fell down, making a "snap" sound when it landed on the ground.
The puppet master who had walked dozens of meters stopped.
"Are you looking for death?" Before Lin Sanjiu could say anything, Hu Changzai behind her became anxious: "...He is coming!"
Shen Lianqi reluctantly smiled at Lin Sanjiu: "Sorry, I can't help you anymore. Didn't I say that? Let's each escape according to our own abilities..."
The puppet master's steps were very leisurely, as if he was not in a hurry. However, in a few steps, he was already behind Hu Changzai.
"Three hundred kilometers south..." Shen Lianqi tried not to look at him, the cold sweat rolling down his face like raindrops: "directional jump!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he soared into the sky like a rocket, overturning the plastic mannequin that jumped on him. In an instant, he was flying towards the south - and soon even his shadow was gone. It was no longer visible, leaving only the billowing smoke and dust in place.
"Ah...it turns out to be a product of the 'Arsenal'..." The puppet master came a step too late and stood beside Lin Sanjiu, with his hands on his hips. "I didn't expect that in such a remote D-level world that has just begun, there are also residents of the twelve central realms. I was careless. Forget it, one more person is not more, one less person is not a lot..."
He turned around, and Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but take a step back.
Unexpectedly, the puppet master pretended that she did not exist. He just waved and called the plastic mannequin on the ground over. He asked with a smile: "Did anyone see that guy's face just now?"
This is a plastic model wearing women's clothing - she (?) raised her dull face, and pointed her arms slowly and stiffly at Lin Sanjiu.
It’s not good—this was the first thought that came to Lin Sanjiu’s mind. In an almost instant subconscious reaction, she kicked off her legs, jumped backwards, and rolled the whip-like mouthpart in her hand towards the plastic mannequin that was following her.
When the model's head fell to the ground, her boots also fell heavily and she slid back a few meters before she stabilized. Lin Sanjiu looked up and found the puppet master standing in front of him, looking at her with a smile. The two of them still maintained the same distance as before, as if she had never moved.
"Don't run, I just need your eyes..."
Cold sweat ran down his back. Lin Sanjiu swallowed hard and felt a little of Shen Lianqi's fear: the person in front of her was not on the same level as her.
Just when the puppet master was about to lift his feet, a small brown shadow suddenly shot out from nowhere and hit his chest; at the same time, Hu Chang was They rushed over from behind the puppet master, clenched their fists and swung at his exposed neck - their goal was simple, as long as there was skin contact with the puppet master, they were done.
Hai Tianqing on the other side opened the plastic mannequin in front of him, strode forward, grabbed Lin Sanjiu's clothes, and blocked her who was still stunned behind him.
After all, these people have been working together for a while. These few movements were quick and neat, blocking the surrounding space for dodge. The second person would have been hit - but when the rabbit fell back to the ground, Hu Chang was there. When the momentum stopped, the puppet master was still standing in the center unscathed, with a relaxed expression.
Countless noises resounded all around - as soon as someone escaped or someone resisted, the movement in this corner spread like a tide, and soon the other two hundred or so people also started to commotion.
"Really, you are just causing trouble for me." The puppet master sighed and whispered: "Forget it, kill the rest of them, open the mouth on the neck, don't hurt your body."
Obviously he was just muttering to himself in a low voice, but all the plastic models, dummies, and dolls present seemed to have received instructions at the same time, and rushed towards people in a violent rush - before Lin Sanjiu could react. Come over, there are already dozens of bright red blood pillars in the sky far and near, shooting out dozens of meters high.
I don’t know how many people had their aorta in their necks cut open.
"No, we can't defeat him, we still have to escape..." Lin Sanjiu murmured, it was only a matter of time before the puppet master would attack them.
"But how to escape? We are already surrounded by those fake people!" The rabbit's anxious voice came from his ears.
Under the impact of the black sea of dummies, the team of more than two hundred people could not hold on for long, and a large part of it was quickly eaten away. Blood flowers splashed out one after another in the sky, exploding in the air like fireworks. A few small drops of blood fell on the puppet master's face, and he stretched out his purple-red tongue to lick it off.
Looking at Lin Sanjiu with his head exposed, the puppet master frowned, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he laughed and said, "So you are a growth type!"
Growth type, this is the word again, she has heard it several times - Lin Sanjiu walked out from behind Hai Tianqing, motioning to his companions to stay away from the puppet master, and then asked with the mentality of stalling for time. Said: "...What is growth type?"
As he asked questions, he did not expect the other party to answer - several people were in a posture of preparing for war.
Unexpectedly, the puppet master seemed to be very leisurely. He smiled and said in a casual tone like chatting: "It's not interesting to fight and kill all the time. I might as well have a chat with you, a kid today."
"Just like evolved humans are superior to ordinary people, we growth types are the best among evolved humans. Although our initial abilities are very weak, the real power is ultimately in the hands of growth types . We are few in number, but we are born to rule..." His pale skin flushed with excitement.
"Are you also... a growth type?" Lin Sanjiu looked at him in surprise.
"That's right." Amidst the cries and screams of humans dying, the puppeteer nodded with great satisfaction and smiled, "Speaking of which, your companion should be me, not these low-level evolutions. Human beings...as long as you are willing to follow me, I can guarantee you a path to becoming a strong person that no one will dare to disobey you."
After a pause~IndoMTL.com~ he showed a row of teeth: "However, in order to show your determination to move closer to your compatriots, you must take action to get rid of these people."
Lin Sanjiu's face was tense, and her lower lip was bitten until it turned white.
"Lori, that verbose old man, talks a lot of nonsense. Will he always be like this when he gets older?" Rabbit sneered.
After hearing this, half of the puppet master's face wrinkled up, and he gave a sullen smile: "I only talk to the growth type. Cats and dogs like you are really an eyesore. ”
He just raised a hand, but was interrupted by a slightly trembling female voice: "Wait, let me do it!"
Hai Tianqing and others were stunned, and looked back at Lin Sanjiu as if they were a little stupid.
The puppeteer stared at her with squinted eyes.
Lin Sanjiu avoided the eyes of his companions, whispered "I'm sorry", and then kicked the rabbit. r1152
