Looking directly at the ancient gods for a whole year

Chapter 2560 Group of Children
Lord Needle Witch's prop is truly malevolent; it seems as if no scenes of the mortal world have ever appeared.

Seeing that the second burlap doll was even more outrageous, appearing instantly and riding on the researcher's head as a driver, Fu Qian was also reminded of many memories.

Chief Yuan once mentioned that the second-tier cultivator was skilled in things like cursed puppet parasitism.

Although we haven't seen the person yet, we've already admired their methods.

Of course, we shouldn't judge people with prejudice.

Compared to discovering the traces in front of her and immediately thinking that Lady Needle Witch was also up to no good here, the probability that she, as a Night Watchman special envoy, had come to deal with the academy exploration team incident was obviously much higher.

As for why she was entrusted with such an important task, Fu Qian felt that he could completely understand it—she was one of the best at spatial traversal.

Not only are they already top-tier combat forces, but they would also be much more convenient for field operations in case of emergencies.

Many things can even be done by puppet dolls, which may have better resistance to various pollutants.

In short, the fact that this thing appeared here is quite normal in Fu Qian's view, and it also indirectly proves that the Night Watchers had taken emergency measures.

Of course, once one enters the realm of etching wisdom, the specific form of expression is no longer up to the individual.

Even someone as low-key as His Highness the Radiant Rainbow seems to have been forcibly given a follower, to the point that he has to use the sun as a disguise.

In comparison, scenes where puppets pull the strings on real people are not far removed from the original character.

What's rather unusual is that they probably bred a whole litter right here.

Ah Fei successfully broke the deadlock with a risky, desperate strike, killing one of the four, only to have a new one emerge and swagger around, while a bunch of children's voices could be heard ahead.

It's easy to imagine that this thing has become like cockroaches, rampant on the remains of numerous researchers in this place.

In summary, the situation remains severe, and Afei is far from being finished.

Ding--

He couldn't even take a breath longer. Amidst the strange sounds, the manipulated researcher bent down and pulled out two incredibly long weapons from the pile of rubble.

……

It was clearly experimental equipment. Apart from being a little sharp at the top, those two things had nothing to do with spears or guns, and there was no question of adjusting the center of gravity.

However, it is simply too long.

With his already imposing physique and a length comparable to a clothesline pole, the range of his attacks can only be described as shameless.

hiss--

Even their movements are swift.

The manipulated flesh and blood body seemed oblivious to the risks of injury, taking two steps with an extremely inhuman movement before eagerly thrusting out the weapon in its hand.

Got it, the Stardust Spear is still not as good as the Physical Spear.

Naturally, she kept her distance and continued to be an audience member, while Fu Qian tried to understand the second doll's choice.

It is as swift as the wind.

There seems to be a reason for deliberately giving up the advantage of ranged attacks; even in terms of physical combat alone, the puppet doesn't seem to be at a disadvantage.

Not to mention that he had already been hit by a bullet, and the strange marks on the wound were now quite obvious.

Judging from Afei's reaction, it was clearly not just a visual effect; he remained silent, and even the twitching at his wound seemed to have become sluggish—he was sleepy.

Indeed, even though the face is completely different, Fu Qian still feels a strong sense of déjà vu regarding the combined effect of various physical manifestations on that body.

Ah Fei was clearly about to fall asleep and was struggling to fight the feeling.

Dozing off at a critical moment is of course a major taboo. In this respect, a sneak attack that pierces the back is even more insidious than one that is poisoned.

Furthermore, as is well known, the difficulty of resisting sleepiness increases exponentially over time.

laugh--

Soon, Ah Fei was wounded again.

Even though he wasn't asleep, he became sluggish and couldn't completely dodge the attack.

Even attempts to close the distance and circumvent the opponent's long reach were unsuccessful. The opponent's inhumane movements continued; seemingly clumsy and brutish, the two weapons wielded with impenetrable force left the opponent with virtually no choice but to flee.

The situation suddenly reached a stalemate, and Afei's movements were slowing down, which looked really bad.

Even this isn't the worst-case scenario—

Amidst the familiar sound of hinges turning, Fu Qian's gaze shifted from the battlefield to a more distant view, where he discovered more than one door slowly opening.

As I just mentioned, there might be a group of these things.

whee--

Hee hee hee--

Sure enough, there was a group.

It was almost as if it had been rehearsed; behind every open door, that familiar laughter followed.

……

They really are like cockroaches; this number is already in double digits.

In the blink of an eye, this dark place transformed into a sea of ​​joy.

The air was filled with childlike laughter, rising and falling like a crowd watching a juggling act.

As for their mounts, each with its own unique posture, they only added to the lively atmosphere.

While enjoying the joyful and peaceful atmosphere, Fu Qian casually counted the quantity.

It turned out that their reproductive capacity was astonishing; there were more than a dozen identical burlap dolls, and their laughter was exactly the same.

This was clearly not good news for Afei.

Because that would mean that the hostility towards him was probably no different, and the reason he didn't act rashly earlier was simply because he was far away.

Of course, one should always look on the bright side; Ah Fei seems to have no time to worry about this problem for the time being.

laugh--

A faint but strange sound came from the fact that blood was already splattering all over his body again.

However, only a small portion of these cases were due to being stabbed; the vast majority came from old wounds.

And it wasn't that the wound burst open due to strenuous exercise, but rather that the hand that had turned into an iron clamp voluntarily loosened its grip.

The result was that the flesh that had been barely managed to be squeezed into a lump was instantly disfigured, and blood even splattered onto the opponent.

In this gruesome scene, A-Fei's actions were completely out of character; he showed no intention of dodging whatsoever.

Wounds, sieges, curses... everything was ignored.

Once again, the man followed the blade, slashing at the doll on the puppet's head.

……

Good, very decisive.

It carries a sense of resolute determination, disregarding the consequences, and embodies a desperate gamble.

But as an evil god observing from close range, Fu Qian certainly wouldn't understand it so superficially.

That strike was indeed very fast. Objectively speaking, even for Afei, who had maxed out his agility, it was almost a top-tier performance.

Therefore, it is not easy to do under the curse.

This is probably why they deliberately gave up maintaining the wound; it seems they used the stimulation to slightly combat the dullness.

Of course, thinking of this or doing this is not considered too exaggerated.

The real challenge here lies in making the decision, in taking that decisive step at that moment.

Undeterred by the consequences, he delivered the fatal blow that severed the second doll's head.
