Mystery: Survival from the Secret Doll

Chapter 22 022 Battle

'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 shouting about miracles. But, what is a miracle? Is it just a funny performance by actors?"

'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.'

'Mission: The theater never ends.'

'Mystery, history, miracle.'

'Divination, performance, weird.'

'Tear down, build up, and sew together.'

"The dome seems to hide the miracle itself. Be careful, the power of miracles should not be underestimated... ah, of course, the audience should not be underestimated either."

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

'Current progress: Final stage.'

The flames shot up into the sky, and the scorching temperature even made Tang feel that his skin would be roasted in the next moment.

The sudden appearance of the demigod-level reality-enhancing law did indeed cause this huge theater master to suffer a great loss, but this could not shake its foundation.

Once it reacts, these effects will be quickly repaired by the power of miracles.

but……

"There's a gap."

Tang Wusheng let out a breath.

The medium it resided in was breached by the explosion, amplified by the laws of augmented reality and the power of science. The marionettes suffered the first and most violent blast. The laws of augmented reality bound them, forcing them to watch helplessly as the flames consumed them and the audience fled in panic.

A corner of the theater was completely blown to pieces, and the bright sunlight outside gave many desperate Beyonders a sense of hope for life.

The ordinary people who were made into puppets disappeared with the crazy rising heat wave and headed to the kingdom of the gods they believed in. The remaining puppets were either missing limbs or had extensive burns and no longer had much fighting power.

Of course, this refers to those who are affected, and... those below demigods.

The spiritual threads gathered and entangled madly. Tang rolled on the ground with the force and quickly looked up.

Countless intertwined and entwined spiritual threads converged with each other, and shadows were rapidly growing, trying to cover up the corner connected to reality again.

Countless secret dolls walked out from the corners and shadows. Their expressions were calm, revealing an eerie and dead silence.

Some of them spontaneously and quickly chased after the fleeing Extraordinary People, but more of them looked at the instigator of all this.

There are many extraordinary people with deformed bodies among them, and among them is a devil with huge body, double horns on his head, and emitting the smell of sulfur.

The sudden explosion had killed many of them, but there were still many more marionettes hiding in the shadows. Now they appeared, slowly walking forward, toward the perpetrators, like pilgrims.

Not far from where Tang rolled down, an old lady holding a crystal ball was looking at him coldly.

She held up the crystal ball in her hand, but Tang didn't wait for the other party to make any move. He called the system while the golden hammer's strengthening time on the iron chain had not yet passed.

'The Craftsman module has been preheated.'

'Loading complete.'

The chains wrapped around Tang's body, which had torn open a corner of the theater and were used to enhance reality, disappeared instantly. At the same time, an ancient bronze bell appeared behind him.

Forcibly change the extraordinary power that remains constant in already crafted magical items.

He wants constant extraordinary power for——

"die."

The golden hammer struck the bronze bell again.

The bronze bell, which had already been enhanced once and possessed the power of the demigod-level death law, was strengthened again at the demigod level!

This time, he was going to fight against the spiritual threads of the secret marionettes! He wanted to make all the spiritual threads of the secret marionettes fall into a state of 'death'!
In other words, 'Operation of the Marionette is prohibited here'.

thump—

thump—

The melodious sound of the bell resonated among countless marionettes. The spiritual threads that were cast from the dome and controlled countless marionettes were rapidly falling apart.

The secret idol closest to him suddenly lost control of his body and collapsed.

The melodious bell sounds spread throughout the theater with the wind.

If the Death Law was used against the Spirit Thread at the beginning, it would most likely only affect the puppets sitting in the theater at that time, and many more hidden things would not be affected.

Facing a Sequence Two, Tang, who was on the same path, couldn't possibly be unaware of how powerful a seal of this level would be.

He didn't expect the explosion just now to destroy the entire theater.

If the remaining marionettes are not dealt with, the worst outcome will be being beaten to death by countless marionettes.

The golden hammer in his hand disappeared, and Tang swung the match above his head while the Death Order lasted.

The match burned violently, and Tang's figure suddenly appeared in mid-air.

We must take advantage of the fact that most of the power of the miracle has been consumed and the seal is fully focused on the closed environment to seal it up in one fell swoop.

And he has something that can seal this seal 100%.

The remaining laws of reality enhancement and the rapidly growing spiritual laws of death spread under this seemingly endless dome.

As the matches slid one by one, Tang's figure kept approaching the dome.

At the deepest point where the spiritual lines converge, there is a dark gem carved from crystal, like a heart, gorgeous and sparkling with hazy colors.

The dark heart-like gem seemed to have sensed Tang's intentions. As he approached the dome, he seemed to be affected by some strange power and flew away rapidly.

The distance is getting longer and longer.

This is a miracle.

A hammer appeared in Tang's hand again.

It was a silver hammer that shone with a dull hue.

'Five hundred knowledge fragments have been consumed. This weakening will elevate you to demigod status!'

'Remaining knowledge fragments: 6315.'

He slammed it in front of him.

The power of miracles suddenly weakened.

The space returned to normal, and with the help of the rising flames, Tang got closer to the dark gem again.

But at this moment, above his body, under the light source blocked by the clothes, some strange color was flowing.

Those shadows came alive.

Countless shadows came to life, grabbing Tang, restraining his neck, and pulling him downwards.

At the same time, a figure that Tang had never seen before appeared beside him. It was a middle-aged man who he had not noticed. He used his flame and also appeared by stepping on matches.

"Black Knight, Trickster."

The system's appraisal followed, and Tang's body turned into a rusty paper figure.

"A master of secret puppets." The middle-aged man wore a tall top hat and looked elegant and gentlemanly.

He laughed at the right moment while staring at Tang's face, as if mocking that everything he did became someone else's wedding dress.

"It's a shame, but your magical item has made my secret doll just a decoration."
