Mystery: Survival from the Secret Doll

Chapter 18 Another Miracle

That is an extraordinary ability belonging to the monster path.

"system."

'Mission: Circus magic show.'

"Your friend seems to be in a little trouble. Please help him escape from danger as much as possible."

'Status: Completed.'

'Task Reward: This is a phased task, and the rewards will be accumulated. Please note: If you spend the task reward in advance, the quality of the task reward you finally receive will be reduced.'

'New tasks updated.'

'Tasks: Fortune Teller, Clown, Magician.'

"You seem to have arrived in a dimension that doesn't belong to the real world. Here, countless people are rising and shouting miracles, but what is a miracle? Is it just a funny performance by actors?"

'Attention, this mission is extremely dangerous, please choose carefully.'

'Current progress: Phase 2.'

The lady who passed by the monster eventually died under the clown's countless flying knives.

The miracle did not happen. The female Beyonder, covered in blood and holes, soon stopped breathing amid the cheers of countless spectators and became a corpse. Like countless losers before her, her figure slowly disappeared.

Tang looked sideways and saw a tall lady in a classical robe appear silently beside him.

Her expression was surprisingly consistent with that of the surrounding marionettes. Countless spiritual threads intertwined and coiled, rising towards the infinitely high dome, captured by some force.

"System, identification."

'Appraisal in progress. One appraisal attempt has been automatically consumed. The remaining appraisal attempts are: 141.'

'Gladys Byrne.'

"Monster Path Sequence Seven, Lucky One."

Status: Secret Marionette (*—*&…￥#)

"What are those garbled characters at the back..."

"There's a high-order power at work. It's strange, it's not just a marionette." The system was also quite curious, "Is this a miracle worker's miracle?"

"Resurrection from the dead is a miracle." Tang lowered his eyes. "However, even a miracle worker only has four chances of this kind of miracle. The more likely possibility is that they died and became a pore in history, remaining here for a long time. Or perhaps those who were killed were not dead in the first place, and were instantly healed and turned into secret dolls at the moment of death."

"And becoming a puppet is also due to their own wishes."

As for what the wish is, it is naturally the wish to survive.

Their wishes were fulfilled, but in a very distorted form.

Becoming a secret puppet, becoming a part of the pores of history and surviving, who says it is not living?
And they became part of the miracle.

This place was much more dangerous than he thought.

Tang glanced around. Only a very small number of people in the crowd seemed to still be rational, and the number of this group was decreasing.

Every minute someone's name is called, every minute someone dies.

In this huge theater, miracles are constantly unfolding.

Before entering here, Tang had already sculpted a new face for himself, so he was not afraid of being recognized by others.

As he surveyed the others, some noticed him. However, since everyone was struggling, there was no point in embarrassing others, so they just sat back and thought about how to escape. A certain power in this place was growing stronger. If it truly erupted, the entire Tingen would be reduced to a dead city in an instant.

And only a small number of people discovered a problem in this panic environment.

The Beyonder who had been asked to perform a magic show never appeared again.

"Did he leave? Or was he killed while preparing for a magic show?"

The extraordinary person who noticed this, when his name was called by the magician who had returned to normal, mustered up the courage to also ask for a "magic show". The magician also attracted the attention of all the audience in another way and took him away from here.

However, before the clown in the circus could finish his acrobatic performance, a corpse covered in blood and with holes all over its body fell from a great height, and brilliant blood flowers burst out in front of the clown.

The magician appeared at the right moment and bowed to all the audience.

"I'm very sorry to interrupt your fun. It seems this guest's performance doesn't meet the circus's standards."

Although his words revealed regret, the corners of his mouth were raised high, and his pale makeup set off his terrifying face.

It seems to be the former.

The extraordinary people who noticed this thought about it and tried to think about what miracles they could perform.

"Tell me, what is the method for sealing this out-of-control seal?"

Tang asked in his heart.

"Mystical artifacts above the second level cannot be analyzed in depth, but based on this system's speculation, they are likely related to the miracles that satisfy them."

By performing miracles that are impossible in the eyes of clowns and magicians, they can leave. If they are not satisfied, they will realize their desire to "live" and fulfill the miracles of others. They will also become secret puppets and stay forever as a cheering audience.

"So, perhaps there is such a method in the sealing method." Tang laughed, "It prevents him from satisfying my miracle."

Before the system could respond, a different voice suddenly appeared on the stage.

That's a demigod.

That's the Black Knight.

'Appraisal in progress. One appraisal attempt has been automatically consumed. The remaining appraisal attempts are: 141.'

"Secret Prayer Path Sequence Four, Black Knight."

The magician chose an animal show for him.

When that extraordinary person came on the stage, he exuded an evil and corrupt aura all over his body. His body suddenly expanded and turned into a giant of two meters thirty-four meters tall.

He was wearing black armor, holding a straight sword, and took a step forward.

A painful scream came from the monster made up of countless animal shells. Its shadow also stood up at this time and wrapped around the monster, and the stench of corrosion immediately spread.

With a "puff" sound, the monster on the stage that had killed countless extraordinary people was cut into countless pieces with blood dripping all over its body. Its body was covered with an extremely sticky black substance, which prevented the wriggling pieces of flesh from wanting to gather together.

Tang lowered his eyes and instructed the system to alert him immediately if his condition was abnormal.

"A Sequence 4 of the Hanged Man's Path. I don't know, no, it must have been contaminated by the True Creator."

This blatant cultist actually appeared in Tingen openly. It was unknown whether they happened to pass by or came with a purpose, but they were all pulled in by the seal composed of the extraordinary characteristics of this out-of-control Miracle Worker.

"But, can this be considered a miracle?"

The question in Tang's mind was also the question in the minds of everyone present. No one knew what the specific rules were, and whether defeating and killing that stitched monster could be considered a "miracle."
