Chapter 12: Night of the Blood Moon (XII)
"I've figured out how to arrange them in order," Nan Huan said when he looked up again, his eyes already flashing with a sharp light.
She didn't bother to explain to Cui Zhongming, "Go over there and look at the first doll behind the blank space. Is there anything different?"
The countdown is still moving towards zero, second by second, step by step.
"Now that I've thought of it, why not just arrange it directly?"
Cui Zhongming's heart was in his throat. He complained but his feet were very quick. Before Nan Huan could check the last doll in front of the empty space, he had already walked behind the empty space as requested.
After his eyes swept over the doll, his expression paused, then he spoke.
"This doll is the player who died yesterday."
"I know the order of these dolls, but I am not sure about the order from left to right."
The two of them spoke at the same time.
At this critical moment, Nanhuan still heard Cui Zhongming's voice.
"Quick, line up in the order of me, you, Xiaoxue, Li Shuai, Bai Wei, and Liang Yu. Hurry up."
Time was running out. Of the six dolls, the two of them quickly took three and hung them on the wall in the order that Nan Huan had just called out.
Soon, several people's dolls were hung up, leaving only Bai Wei's doll.
Nan Huan took a deep breath. With one minute left, she reached out and hung Bai Wei's doll on the wall.
But the moment her hand touched the doll, she suddenly felt a slightly cool touch spreading along her fingers into her body.
In the blink of an eye, she felt as if there was something extra on her body, so heavy that she couldn't open her eyes.
The heartbeat that originally sounded on the doll seemed to suddenly jump to my own body, shaking my internal organs and causing unbearable pain.
"I'm so lonely, do you want to come and keep me company?"
In a trance, Nan Huan seemed to hear Bai Wei's voice, the sorrow that could not be concealed in her coaxing tone.
Nan Huan realized that something was wrong with her body. She began to have tinnitus, her neck felt tight, and she couldn't utter a word. All she could see were distorted red numbers.
59, 58, 57...
No, she can't die. She hasn't found the person she's looking for yet, and she can't just die in the game like this.
Nan Huan struggled to recite to himself, trying not to be affected by the voice, and tried hard to open his eyes.
She felt as if she had stepped into a swamp and was sinking lower and lower. The rest of her body seemed to have lost all feeling.
48, 47, 46...
Feeling himself gradually sinking, Nan Huan clenched his fists and pinched his palms with his fingernails, trying to wake himself up.
The palm of her hand felt sticky and she seemed to smell blood.
Suddenly, all the weight on his body disappeared. When Nan Huan came to his senses, he found that his hands were pinching his neck. The palm of one hand was burning with pain, probably from the scratch he had just made.
The doll that was originally in my hand was thrown to the ground at some point.
She hurriedly picked up the doll and hung it on the wall. When she stood up, she found that Cui Zhongming was also strangling her neck with both hands not far away, and a doll of a player who died yesterday fell to the ground.
10, 9, 8...
Nan Huan didn't have time to help Cui Zhongming, so he had to grab the doll and hang it on the wall one second before the countdown ended.
After the doll was hung on the wall, Cui Zhongming stopped his action of killing it.
Nan Huan finally felt relieved, fell to the ground, and started coughing violently.
【bite--
Congratulations to the player for completing the side mission 2
Mission Reward: 150 points (Tip: This round of side missions will be awarded a total of 200 points based on player contribution)]
With the system's prompt sound, the clearance rewards have been distributed.
Nanhuan is still indignant.
This dog game, she finally thought of it, the only behavior of the doctor related to order was related to treating them.
During the treatment process, the doctor is chosen by yourself, but she keeps saying some scary words to the players while treating, so it is difficult for everyone to notice this.
Moreover, the doctor said that his blood smelled very good, and the dead player's doll happened to be the first one after the blank space, so Nan Huan was able to determine the order of everything.
Following the system's announcement, things in the room changed again.
Look, when the doctor saw the blood on Liang Yu’s gauze this morning, his eyes widened. Plus, there were all these babies in the room and the beating heart.
This is not a neat or clean order at all, it is clearly the priority order of doctors' food rations.
Pooh--
What a bullshit doctor! She's more like a witch.
Nan Huan's throat felt as if it was being pierced by dense needles. She didn't want to speak, but she was cursing in her heart.
As a result, the scene that was halfway through disappearing seemed to be stuck suddenly.
The flowing liquid flashed twice as if there was a bad contact.
Then the next second, Nan Huan felt that his field of vision was getting smaller and smaller, and the things around him became taller in his eyes.
【bite--
Warning, Warning
The player discovered the secret that the doctor is actually a witch. The witch hates it most when someone knows her secret, so she loses trust in you and curses you, turning you into a voodoo doll.
The witch loves playing hide-and-seek with her voodoo doll the most, so please enjoy it.
Tip: Survive at least one hour in the voodoo doll hide-and-seek game, otherwise you will become the witch's voodoo doll forever. 】
Nan Huan finally took a breath, but in the end he hadn't even caught his breath yet.
I felt an external force pulling me up and squeezing me into something soft without any explanation.
As her field of vision gradually became lower, her limbs became less flexible, and after receiving prompts from the system, Nan Huan felt that she seemed to have guessed where she was stuffed.
Before Nan Huan could start to curse, Cui Zhongming on the side started yelling first.
"Fuck ￥$#@***, when did I discover the witch's secret..."
Cui Zhongming first heard the player who died yesterday asking him to die together, and then he lost consciousness. When he woke up again, he found himself strangling his own neck to death.
He finally heard the system announce that the mission was successful. He had no time to argue. He had been busy for a long time, but only earned 50 points.
Just as I was sitting on the ground and about to take a breath, I heard the system prompt again.
Just say that you have discovered the witch's secret and force him to play hide-and-seek without any explanation. It would be strange if he is not angry.
[Two people who participate in the same side quest are temporarily considered teammates by the system. If one person knows about it, it is considered that both of them know about it. ]
Maybe his curse was too sincere, so the system had to come forward to explain.
At the end he added mercilessly.
【Besides, you already know it now. 】
The subtext is that no matter what, you are bound to play this game of hide-and-seek.
Perhaps the matter involving Nanhuan was too unbelievable, and Cui Zhongming was unable to recover for a long time.
On the other hand, Nan Huan, who was standing aside, was also feeling very aggrieved.
I was just complaining in my mind, how can you take it seriously?
Are your system requirements too strict?
And you have a room full of voodoo dolls, with their hearts beating so obviously that even a blind person can tell that she is not a doctor.
You just want the players to be killed.
The grievances she had before she had the chance to complain were choked back by Cui Zhongming's dirty words.
After all, she was a pampered young lady, and had never heard such bold dirty words, and it was not her intention. When she knew that Cui Zhongming was implicated by her, she immediately felt relieved.
And as the system broadcasted, she could already feel the dolls on the wall getting ready to move.
The doll that was originally hanging steadily on the wall seemed to have heard some command in an instant.
His dull eyes stared straight in the direction of Nan Huan and Cui Zhongming, with a sinister smile on his face.
"It's already late, hurry up and run, stop talking nonsense."
Nan Huan felt somewhat guilty, and before Cui Zhongming could pursue the matter, he yelled at the other party, then ran forward without saying a word on his short legs.
Yes, at the moment of the prompt, Nan Huan and Cui Zhongming were stuffed into the voodoo doll that looked very similar to themselves and was hung on the wall.
Nan Huan was not yet proficient in controlling this new body and always felt a little top-heavy.
The bedroom door had been opened wide to facilitate hide-and-seek.
The room was not very big, and even if all the dolls on the wall fell down, there would not be enough space to hold them all. Moreover, when Nan Huan was running, he caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye that the half-human-height doll that was originally standing began to move.
This is definitely not a good place to play hide-and-seek, so the best option is to run away.
but--
With a snap.
Before Nan Huan could run two steps, he tripped over his left foot and fell to the ground.
Fortunately, the doll's body was soft and the fall didn't hurt much, so she had to get up quickly.
He caught a glimpse of Cui Zhongming out of the corner of his eye and accidentally fell to the ground.
See, it's definitely not a problem with her balance.
She said that the doll was top-heavy and couldn't walk steadily, let alone run.
But Nan Huan couldn't care less about all this now. When she looked up, she saw the half-human-height doll walking towards her.
The other person didn't have the problem of being top-heavy, and she had long legs and took big steps.
The door was clearly just a few steps away, but Nan Huan ran there at great risk of his life.
Is this how you play hide and seek at home?
Start looking for it before you even hide it.
The warning sound had only been gone for a few minutes when the dolls on the wall started falling down like dumplings.
Nan Huan didn't want to know what the consequences would be if he was caught, so he had to dodge left and right and slip through the crack in the door.
Fortunately, these dolls that fell from the wall were similar to Nanhuan in terms of mobility issues.
Because there were too many dolls in the house, there was a traffic jam for a while.
Seeing that the half-human-height doll was blocked by something short under its feet, he raised his leg and kicked it impatiently.
This gave Nanhuan an opportunity to take advantage of.
"Fuck, flying items are disabled."
Cui Zhongming's shouting and cursing came from behind.
This idiot hasn’t learned his lesson from what happened just now. It would be strange if he could use flying props at this time.
The game says that you are playing hide-and-seek, and they want you to be chased like a dog. How can you be allowed to be sneaky?
"Just because you can't fly doesn't mean you can't fight. It's already this late, why don't you use your skills?"
As Nanhuan ran forward, he did not forget to remind Cui Zhongming.
It wasn't that she had a change of heart or was kind-hearted, but she felt that the distance between her and the voodoo doll behind her was getting closer.
Moreover, with such a short distance, she was already out of breath, and it was only a matter of time before she was caught up.
So they had no choice but to add fuel to the fire and let Cui Zhongming use his skills or props.
It’s not that she felt sorry for her points and not using her skills, but she just took a quick look and found that the trust of those voodoo dolls in her was -100.
She hadn't understood what the system meant by the witch having lost trust in her. Now it seemed that these voodoo dolls were all made by the witch, so naturally she didn't have much trust in her.
In other words, the current situation is extremely urgent, otherwise Nan Huan would definitely have to argue with the system. Why would it be fine if the system didn't trust him, but why would it take so much responsibility?
Also, if you don't keep things in your room clean and someone sees them, how can you blame them?
Nan Huan ran forward speechlessly, and felt a strong wind blowing from behind.
She instinctively lowered her head and felt as if something was sweeping over her head.
When he looked up again, he saw a golden whip-like object retracting behind him, and a large number of voodoo dolls behind him fell down, as if they had been hit at the same time.
Not far away, Cui Zhongming's face turned ugly after he retracted the whip. He took out a dagger from somewhere and started moving it.
The voodoo dolls could not be completely eliminated. After a whole area was swept down, more of them came out again.
If you fight alone, you will die of exhaustion but still not be able to solve all the problems.
Cui Zhongming’s whip is good, like a weapon of mass destruction, but judging from the opponent’s appearance, it may consume a lot of physical strength to use it once, and it cannot be used all the time, not to mention a short dagger.
While thinking of a countermeasure, Nan Huan ran towards the stairs. He accidentally bumped his arm into the voodoo doll thrown by Cui Zhongming.
【bite--
It was detected that the player was caught by the voodoo doll once, and the touched parts have been contaminated.
Tip: When the player's body becomes completely stiff, it is considered that the player has lost all vital signs. 】
I wasn't caught.
It was all knocked away, it was just an accidental touch.
This is fraud, this is naked fraud.
Nan Huan shouted in his heart, but the system kept pretending to be dead and didn't respond at all.
"Don't touch those dolls."
Nan Huan didn't care about being angry and could only shout to the back.
It’s not that Nan Huan cares about him that much, but mainly because she is impressed by Cui Zhongming’s fighting ability. Now that he is holding her back, Nan Huan has the upper hand. There are no kids surrounding her, so she is safe for the time being.
"My poisonous insects don't work on these dolls, and other lethal weapons and props have a cooling time. Do you have any other ideas?"
At this time, Cui Zhongming no longer cared about hiding his skills and yelled at Nan Huan.
His voice had already begun to tremble, and he probably wouldn't be able to hold out for much longer.
Nan Huan also knew that this was not a solution. If Cui Zhongming could not hold on, it would only be a matter of time before she was caught. She rolled her eyes, as if she had thought of something.
"I have an idea. When I run to the stairs, you put some dolls to follow me and I will go get help."
