Chapter 33
"There's no point in arguing. You're also one of the costs. It's just a matter of whether the sacrifice is willing or not."
Seeing that he could not shake the attitude of the master of the secret realm, the puppet stopped talking.
She waved her hand gently, and the countless four-legged beasts guarding the wellhead let out terrible growls.
If there were someone at the well now, they would be able to find that the fiery color, like a curse, began to spread on the paint applied to the outside of all the four-legged beasts, and the edges even showed the charred color that only appeared after burning.
Those four-legged beasts were actually puppets left behind by the girl before she passed away. They were designed based on the true identity of the owner of the secret realm.
That was a surprise that was never delivered.
The puppeteer who named himself Sha originally wanted to cooperate with the owner of the secret realm to accomplish the great task of bringing the girl back from death in the future.
But unfortunately, this river god did not repent and was trapped in the well by the CPA for a hundred years, still insisting on the indifferent morality of mankind.
The girl clearly used its image as her most commonly used puppet image, but it was so disappointing.
Then there was no need to tell him about this "surprise".
Because the owner of the secret realm will soon die along with the entire secret realm.
The puppet's thinking is very simple. Apart from Koizumi, who is her obsession and the most important person to her, she does not care about the life and death of other people.
Including the owner of this secret realm.
In her eyes, she only tried to persuade this senior who was sealed by CPA for the sake of her master. Since the other party did not bear any grudge against CPA at all and even stood on CPA's side to oppose her like a brainwashed person, there was no need for Nasha to keep him.
He Bo was already powerless and so weak that his secret realm was taken over by an outsider like her with the help of the wooden model of He Shu Town. The mystery that was useless and powerless was decided to die along with his secret realm and the humans who believed in him here.
The owner of the secret realm, together with his secret realm, will become part of the cost of the new body she will create for him.
In Sha's hands, the piled up wooden blocks gradually took shape, and in front of the eyes of several people, they were gradually pieced together into a familiar model.
That was the exquisite model of Heshu Town on the stall that both Gu Qingming and Luo Dong stopped to look at.
Countless thin silk threads for controlling puppets seemed to spread out from between his fingers. The power of the silk threads came from the four-legged beasts that were being burned at the wellhead as a source of energy.
An ominous red color spread across the model in her hand. "When I activate the formation in your heart and the model turns completely red, all life in the secret realm will cease to exist."
In a flat and hoarse voice, she pronounced the death sentence on the entire Heshu town.
"Their vitality will become part of the body I reshape for you."
The puppet, which usually had no expression, showed for the first time an extremely vivid and somewhat crazy emotion of joy.
She came here to use the power of the secret realm of Heshu Town to complete the first step of resurrecting her master - first use the vitality of a certain number of people to reshape her master's body.
"You are crazy."
The master of the secret realm couldn't bear it any longer, and a water blade appeared in his hand. It was his weapon as the river god.
Shuhe Hebo's water blade and the carving knife between Sha's fingers collided with each other. The former tried to snatch the model from the latter, while the latter was waiting for all the puppets on the well to melt and become the power for her to open the formation.
Both of them were very good at physical skills, and the battle was almost dazzling. Gu Qingming, who witnessed everything, frowned and said softly: "We can't just watch, we must stop that guy from continuing to control the model."
"You have to go even if you don't."
Ayi gritted his teeth, and Zheng Qiuji was also ready.
The responsibility of CPA was on their shoulders. In the face of such a critical moment, waiting for help had become a fantasy. By the time other CPAs arrived and opened the entrance to the secret realm, the ashes of the five of them and other innocent ordinary people would probably have been scattered all over the place.
As the CPA closest to the scene, there is no time to worry about them.
Gu Qingming, Ayi and Chu Zhongyuan quickly worked out a plan that was in line with the current urgent situation, yet simple and practical.
Gu Qingming calmed down. Having made up his mind, he would no longer hesitate. He aimed at Sha and He Bo who were moving at high speed, condensed the wind blade in his hand, and waited for the opportunity.
Ayi also pulled out the Five Poisonous Silk from between her fingers. The puppet strings are strings, and the Five Poisonous Silk are also strings. Who can say for sure that the puppet that can be controlled by the puppet strings cannot be controlled by her Five Poisonous Silk?
Although Sha's body is made of wood and is hard enough to resist poison, the Five Poisonous Silk wrapped around it can somewhat restrict the puppet's movements and buy Chu Zhongyuan more time.
Chu Zhongyuan, who was entrusted with the heaviest task, looked relaxed, as if he was not fighting a life-and-death battle but playing an interesting game.
It is worthy of being called a cow cat.
Gu Qingming couldn't help thinking.
“Three…one!”
Gu Qingming had the best eyesight. When he saw the two people fighting approach an excellent position at the entrance of the corridor, he ended the countdown instantly.
Several wind blades flew out and rotated towards each other. He Bo was also very powerful. The moment he saw the wind blades, he understood what they wanted to do. He firmly restrained Sha's main attention and prevented her from noticing the wind blades flying towards her from the side.
The five people and one mystery should have been in opposing positions, but at this moment they were like teammates who had rehearsed many times and cooperated closely.
After all, their purpose is the same - to stop the puppet who has gone crazy because of losing his master.
By the time Sha's pair of glazed eyes saw the wind blade, it was too late.
The time was too short for Sha to even react. She wanted to move her arms to avoid the wind blade, but her arms were tightly tied by lavender silk threads that came from nowhere.
Those lavender threads were not just threads, they were even decorated with smoke of the same color - those were the Five Poisons of the thousands of Gu Masters in Guizhou.
Although Sha was just a puppet and not a living being with a complete structure, the intense poison still affected her in some way, and her movements paused.
Although it was only a moment, it was enough for Gu Qingming who was blessed with the speed of Cretaceous Storm.
The wind blade that really played a decisive role was released by Gu Qingming, chasing among those wind blades that served as distractions, and quickly flew towards Sha's hand.
In just a moment, the building model in Sha's hand was knocked down by the wind blade. He Bo quickly transformed a water blade into his other hand, which not only picked up the town model but also blocked the movement of Sha's hand that had lost the town model.
A deep blue fluorescent water tide rose at this moment, and Chu Zhongyuan's fearless figure appeared on the side of the town model and caught the town model accurately.
Sha frowned, she almost forgot that in the secret realm there was not only the strange cheongsam girl who passed by and was not to be feared, but also several young psychics who were hiding in the dark and dared not move.
She tilted her head slightly, holding a carving knife in her mouth, and threw it towards Chu Zhongyuan's position, but it was too late.
By the time the carving knife slid through that space following the laws of physics, the fluorescent water tide had reappeared at the entrance of the corridor, and Chu Zhongyuan's figure was quickly hidden by the power of the Word Spirit.
run!
Zheng Qiuji did not say anything, he just made a gesture to leave. For CPA, the lives of ordinary people trapped in the secret realm were more important. They must take this model away from the moody Sha, the farther the better.
Sha's indifferent gaze turned to the corridor without warning. She used the hard body of the puppet to knock He Bo back, buying a few seconds of space. She threw a woodworking knife with a little sawdust on it expressionlessly. The knife went straight to the word spirits on the five people who were moving outward. They wanted to dodge, but because the corridor was too narrow, it was too late.
The bronze fragments of the Word Spirit fell to the ground, and the five people were forced out of the corridor by the carving knife that automatically rotated and drifted in the air, and piled up on the ground.
"What a disgusting puppet existence... Members of the CPA, take the first step to bring her back, the lives she needs... Let's start with the five of you."
In the blood-red eyes made of Sha Liuli, there was a complete indifference to life and a vague hatred.
She knows nothing and is just a puppet who wants to avenge her creator.
Sha pulled out a large carving knife and walked towards the five high school students step by step.
"Two honorable gods! Find a way to destroy the model!"
At this time, He Bo, with the appearance of "Qin Zhen", shouted, raised the water blade, and rushed towards Sha again, trying to stop the opponent and buy time for Gu Qingming and Chu Zhongyuan.
Although their identities have been exposed, whether because it is a casual remark or for other reasons, He Bo still calls Gu Qingming and Chu Zhongyuan "gods" as a joke.
This made Gu Qingming feel a little bit of intimacy at the moment of life and death.
He raised the bronze spear and used force on the blade, trying to cause damage to the model, but found that the model was harder than he had imagined.
Even when he was fighting with the man in black robe before, the feeling of cutting his opponent's body was not so hard.
It seems that in order to complete the ritual and become powerful, Sha really spent all his money.
"dream."
Sha snorted coldly. It was a bit too presumptuous for an ordinary high school student CPA to want to break through the multiple layers of protection she had set up.
She turned the carving knife in her hand around and attacked the rune chains hanging around her.
Runes, like formations, are mysterious skills that can be acquired after birth. The principles behind them are similar to formations, both of which are based on the arrangement of unit rune blocks to form rune chains with certain functions.
In a sense, the character chain that Zheng Qiuji used to realize the word spirit skill, the principles, runes, and formations are similar.
The rune chain hit by the carving knife flashed a bright emergency light. These emergency equipment used to restrict He Bo's movements began to work instantly after sensing the mysterious breath.
On Qin Zhen's wrist, a bright light flashed in the shape of a chain, which was straightened and tightened, controlling his every move.
It is somewhat ironic that the shackles that the river god put on himself to prevent himself from harming the people in his madness have now become an obstacle for him to save the unconscious people in the secret realm who have had their vitality drained away.
Without He Bo's restraint, Ayi's Five Poisonous Silk alone was unable to control Sha. The carving knife flew between Sha's fingers and cut those tough Five Poisonous Silk threads in an instant.
"You little Gu Master, dare you become my puppet?"
Sha said coldly with contempt.
Except for the master who has come back to life, no one else can hold a thread for her.
She casually threw a carving knife towards Ayi. Seeing this, Luo Dong didn't bother to aim and shot at it, but the carving knife was off target.
The next second, Chu Zhongyuan had already brought Ayi to a safe place.
Thanks to Chu Zhongyuan's teleportation skill.
Luo Dong breathed a sigh of relief.
The strongest of the five is still battling wits and courage with the model.
Gu Qingming could feel that there was a layer of mysterious protection on the outer layer of the town model, which connected the model to the secret realm. Perhaps it was in this way, through some unknown method, that Sha used this town model to infiltrate He Bo's secret realm.
But, but how to destroy it?
Sha's footsteps were getting closer and closer. Gu Qingming pressed harder and harder. His fingers pressing on the bronze spear had turned white. The bronze spear and the mysterious protective layer were deadlocked like a contradiction in a paradoxical fable. If this continued, they would not have time to destroy this thing after Sha made a move.
