Jiang Liyue, on the day she became a shadow queen, was pulled into an infinite-loop novel and turned into the fake heiress who starved to death because she refused to enter the game. Good news: she...
Chapter 360 The Dolls' Mobilization
Jiang Liyue had no choice but to painstakingly find a chair and push it to the door.
The tiny doll was pushing a chair that was huge for her, which looked both funny and cute in the live stream.
The comments section was full of people laughing at her for being so stubborn.
Once the chair was pushed to the door, Jiang Liyue grabbed the chair leg and climbed up, then jumped onto the doorknob and clung to it with all her might.
The weight of the body pressed down on the door handle, and the door opened successfully.
Jiang Liyue felt as if she had opened the door to a new world.
Like a bird that has been freed, it ran out without hesitation.
As for what to do when Chu Li returns and finds the room empty? We'll deal with that later.
What can he do to her? At most, he can serve her in bed.
When Chu Li carried her back, Jiang Liyue had made a point of memorizing the route, and she roughly knew the direction back to Pella's room.
However, her two short, doll-like legs were no match for Chu Li's straight, long legs.
So what Chu Li had already traveled for a long time was an insurmountable obstacle for Jiang Liyue.
The first part of the walk was quiet, and there seemed to be no sound from the rooms on both sides of the corridor. But as we walked further in, it suddenly became noisy.
Jiang Liyue could hear the clanging and tinkling sounds in the darkness, so she walked more carefully, mostly staying close to the edge of the corridor to avoid any danger.
Then, the next moment, she suddenly heard a faint sound of a window opening, and when she looked up, a huge shadow crashed down on her.
Jiang Liyue reacted quickly and dodged to the side, and a loud bang came from where she had been standing.
She turned her head and saw that it was actually a golden retriever-shaped rag doll twice her size.
On top of it rode a small ceramic doll with a rosy face, somewhat resembling a Russian nesting doll.
The ceramic doll was the first to complain in a low voice: "Oh my god, I almost broke. If this is how I die, I'll be eliminated from the game. I'll probably be the most shameful player."
"Don't worry, with me here, you can't possibly break me. After all, I'm all cotton now, soft as can be." The golden retriever looked exceptionally confident, his tone carrying a hint of smugness and optimism.
In this instance, he's large and a durable rag doll; he's certainly lucky.
The two of them were talking to themselves and didn't notice Jiang Liyue standing next to them.
Until she coughed softly.
The two dolls who were just talking were startled and tried to run away, but then they met Jiang Liyue's eyes.
My first thought was, "Where did this pretty doll come from?"
And then there's this: why are they so good-looking while they're not even humanoid? This dungeon is so unfair!
Jiang Liyue watched them quietly.
Judging from her position and movements, the porcelain doll was the first to realize something: "Um, did we almost hit you just now? Sorry."
"It's nothing." Jiang Liyue smiled, seemingly quite interested in their current appearance. "How did you end up coming out of this room?"
"Well, that's because we were in the dungeon right here. You wouldn't believe it, we were trapped inside the doll and couldn't move at all. We were so anxious! Luckily, we were able to move again after nightfall, and we just managed to climb out the window." The golden retriever was such a chatterbox, he rattled off the whole story of what had happened to them that day.
There wasn't much to say to begin with.
"Weren't you in Pera's room?" Although it was a question, Jiang Liyue thought back and realized that she hadn't seen the two of them in Pera's room today.
However, recalling the terrible state of Miss Pera's room during the day, Jiang Liyue thought that it might be a good thing that the initial location wasn't there.
Speaking of this, Ceramics also started to complain: "Yeah, this is really unlucky. We can't even figure out the dungeon quest, but it's okay, we're going to just find the exit."
The two tasks are to find the exit and to find Lilith.
Players can exit the instance by completing just one task, so most players choose to do only one.
Finding the exit should mean finding the exit of the manor and escaping from here. At least the goal is clear, which is obviously easier than finding Lilith, who only knows her name.
It's perfectly normal for these two players to choose this mission.
"Would you like to come with us to find the exit?" The two children enthusiastically invited Jiang Liyue to join them.
Jiang Liyue shook her head: "Thank you for your kindness."
She was clearly refusing.
Jiang Liyue didn't think finding the exit was such a simple task. Although it literally meant finding a way out, they were currently puppets.
Can the doll leave the manor directly? Jiang Liyue wondered to herself.
Jiang Liyue felt that the players turning into dolls was not just a setting in the dungeon, but had a deeper reason.
This is the experience Jiang Liyue has accumulated by clearing so many dungeons.
The task should not be interpreted literally, but rather in terms of its purpose.
Just like taking an exam, the most important thing is to think about the question setter's intention. Jiang Liyue is a good student, and she has always been good at this kind of thing.
Porcelain and Golden Retriever understood Jiang Liyue's choice and didn't force her. That's how it is in dungeons; if you can team up, then team up, and if you can't, it's best not to make enemies.
"Alright then," Tao said regretfully. "We'll be going now."
As he spoke, the Golden Retriever carried the ceramic away. The Golden Retriever had four legs, but its proportions were not as balanced as those of a real Golden Retriever. Instead, it was made to be a cute plush toy, so it was chubby overall and had short legs.
When it runs fast, it looks a bit like a ball rolling on the road.
Their figures disappeared at the end of the corridor, and Jiang Liyue continued on her way to Miss Pera's room.
There were only faint noises along the way, but when they arrived at Miss Pera's room, Jiang Liyue witnessed what real liveliness was.
It wasn't that it was noisy; in fact, Miss Pera's room was very quiet.
Her door was half open, and you could see many dolls jumping around inside, trying not to make a sound while everything was so orderly.
The dolls rummaged through the bookshelves and desks, while several others worked together to open Miss Pera's window. A rope, which they had somehow found, was hanging from the windowsill, and they slid down along it.
Plush toys like the Golden Retriever are easier to handle; as long as you have the courage, you can just jump right down.
Not all the dolls that were torn by the naughty kids during the day have completely lost their lives. After they recover, they can run around even with broken arms and legs.
In short, the whole room was in this lively atmosphere.
For a moment, Jiang Liyue felt as if she had stepped into a scene from an animated movie.
No, this game is way too unweird!
