Chapter 300: The One-Eyed Blood Doll
Then, the gaze of the giggling doll in her arms fell upon the figure wearing the plague doctor mask—Lynn.
Instantly, the smile on its face froze in place, coming to an abrupt halt.
[Ding! The Doll's fear of you +30]
Meanwhile, the little girl in the red dress still wore a wicked, malicious smile. Hugging her doll, she took small, skipping steps toward Lynn and the others with an air of innocence and brimming appetite.
The bronze bell jingled.
In this scene covered in blood and gore, the little girl gave off a sense of jarring dissonance.
And instantly, a status panel for the little girl appeared before Lynn's eyes.
[One-Eyed Blood Doll]
[Level]: 10
[Race: Flesh Wraith][Alignment: Chaotic Neutral]
[Combat Ability]: You can mess with her however you like.
[Introduction]: A Blood Doll who has grown powerful through rigorous training, her confidence is sky-high. Because one of her eyes was gouged out by a wicked, unscrupulous doctor, she has been working hard to earn money. Of course, becoming powerful and then seizing the chance to steal when that unscrupulous doctor isn't around is also a pretty good option...
Lynn: "..."
Still not recognizing Lynn, the Blood Doll continued to approach them with her malicious smile, her footsteps making light pattering sounds.
"Dolly, he looks so weird, is he some kind of bird-man? And I can smell the scent from down below, he probably tastes pretty good too~"
She licked her lips, her appetite overflowing.
Clearly.
She also didn't recognize this as the attire of a Night Doctor.
Lynn: "..."
But the doll in her arms was already clutching her chest tightly, wearing a (ΩДΩ) expression, its whole body trembling uncontrollably.
[Ding! The Doll's fear of you +20]
Finally, the Blood Doll noticed the strangeness of the doll in her arms. Puzzled, she hugged the doll and asked:
"Huh? What's wrong, Dolly? Are you just too happy?"
The doll (ΩДΩ) gestured wildly, shaking its head desperately. Then it stretched out a hand, pointed at Lynn wearing the plague doctor mask, then pointed at itself. It pulled at its mouth, stretching it into an extremely terrifying expression, then frantically pointed at the blood-red magic circle behind her, its two legs kicking and flailing.
"Wah-dah-dah-dah-dah!!"
It was as if it was trying to describe some utterly horrifying scenario to her. But seeing the Blood Doll's confused, uncomprehending expression, it grew frantic.
Then it pulled at its own nose, pointed at the plague doctor mask, then quickly pointed at its own belly. It rapidly made a motion of pulling something apart to both sides, then (ΩДΩ) drew a line across its own neck, tilted its head to show a (x﹏x) expression, then swiftly switched back to (ΩДΩ), then drew the line again, repeating this several times.
"Wah-dah!! Wah-dah!!"
It spread its arms wide, staring in terror and screaming, trying to depict a state worse than death.
The Blood Doll was taken aback. She looked up at the plague doctor-masked freak, then glanced back at the doll in confusion, widening her eyes and saying:
"Dolly, are you saying people dressed like that are scary?"
Lynn: "..."
The doll nodded its head up and down vigorously and desperately, then widened its eyes and quickly wrote two characters so ugly they were almost unrecognizable on its little hand, stretching it out toward the Blood Doll.
"Ah-dah!"
The Blood Doll looked at it, puzzled.
On its palm were written two utterly terrifying characters.
[Night Doctor]!
The Blood Doll's eyes widened.
The doll (ΩДΩ) pointed in Lynn's direction, then swiftly pointed toward the magic circle. It made a gesture with two fingers, rapidly wiggling them up and down, looking like it was about to lose its mind from anxiety.
The Blood Doll said blankly, "Run away?"
The doll nodded its head up and down fearfully and urgently, non-stop.
A brief silence fell.
The Blood Doll immediately laughed so hard tears were about to come out. Then, brimming with confidence, she raised her head, looked in Lynn's direction with a malicious smile, licked her lips, and said:
"Dolly is so funny! Dolly, don't be scared! Mommy is super strong now! Even though I don't know what a Night Doctor is, if I eat one, they'll definitely scream really loud, right?"
"And besides, Dolly really, really hates doctors!"
Lynn: "..."
The doll hugged its head in terror, shaking it desperately.
No! No!!
You're too young, too naive!!
...
Beside Lynn, the spiritual medium stared blankly at the ghostly doll who had suddenly stopped and was speaking some incomprehensible language. She then turned her head to look at Lynn, who didn't seem to plan on taking action immediately.
"Mr. Lynn, can you handle this evil spirit? She seems to be from hell too, just like you..."
Lynn didn't speak, but beneath his mask, the corners of his mouth were already uncontrollably threatening to curl up.
...
On the distant high-rise building, Kress wore a face twisted with a crazed, fanatical, terrifying smile. His gaze was fixed intently on the little girl and the plague doctor-masked figure he had taken a fancy to, who were now facing off in the square.
A black-robed figure beside him rasped, "Master, do you think Gluttony can deal with that plague doctor-masked freak?"
Kress said fervently, "Maybe a bit lacking, but I don't think she'll be far off! Gluttony is incredibly powerful! Even though this one isn't the previous [Gluttony], I've personally witnessed this one's terror!"
It can devour everything, consume everything.
Back when ten exorcists were no match for it, a few years ago, if not for the time limit of the summoning, it could have easily devoured all the living beings in a small town without breaking a sweat.
And most importantly.
This one is the most easily summonable powerful existence for our Flesh and Blood Cult.
As long as you provide enough blood offerings to satisfy her appetite, she's very willing to help you kill, because for such an existence, killing *is* eating!
...
In the square.
A thick, bloody aura permeated the air.
Watching the Blood Doll, who was hugging her doll, smiling mysteriously and bloodily, and skipping toward him, Lynn stretched out a hand. Straining his expression, he changed his voice to a forced, raspy tone and said:
"Everyone, fall back. Leave this to me."
The spiritual medium and the surrounding exorcists all jolted, then nodded gravely and quickly retreated. They could also sense Mr. Lynn's grave seriousness, as if facing a formidable enemy.
And his voice had grown hoarse, clearly indicating Mr. Lynn was now taking this seriously.
This further convinced them of just how terrifying the little girl summoned from hell must be. Never mind the overwhelming ghost energy surging from her body;
the fact that she could make an existence like Mr. Lynn treat her seriously spoke volumes about her power!
They quickly retreated several dozen meters, all holding their breath, staring intently ahead.
A fierce wind swept through.
The Blood Doll, still giggling, finally skipped to a spot about two meters away from Lynn and stopped. Hugging the doll in her arms, which was (ΩДΩ) clutching its head, she looked up and said:
"Big Brother, you're from the Dark World too!"
