Oh no! I'm surrounded by female ghosts!

After discussing Xu Qinghe's matter with Bai Xinglan.

Su Ming confidently opened the game scene, selected the dollhouse, and clicked "interact".

In a dizzying moment, he appeared in the dollhouse.

Xu Qinghe sat alone on the edge of the bed, neither speaking nor moving.

Although it looks no different from a human, it is like a soulless walking corpse.

Su Ming walked up to her.

He cut to the chase and asked, "Do you want to leave here?"

She remained silent and unresponsive, but a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes for a moment.

Su Ming then realized that she actually wanted to leave.

Just as Bai Xinglan had analyzed.

A desire to escape had long been growing within her, but she dared not ask for it and could only passively endure it.

Therefore, Su Ming needs to take the initiative to guide her and break her rigid and closed state.

Su Ming leaned down slightly, looking directly into her empty eyes, his tone firm.

"If you want to leave, raise my favorability rating to the maximum."

Xu Qinghe remained silent.

However, the level of favorability has begun to steadily increase.

[Affection +1, Current (Cursed Doll): Awakening (11/200)]

[Affection +1, Current (Cursed Doll): Awakening (12/200)]

...

Su Ming waited patiently.

In about fifteen minutes, Xu Qinghe's favorability rating reached its maximum.

[Affection +1, Current (Cursed Doll): Awakening (200/200)]

[The cursed doll's affinity level has reached its maximum.]

[Activate Favorability Upgrade Quests]

[Affection Level Up Quest: Please Take Me Away]

Su Ming's eyes flickered slightly, revealing an expression that said, "I knew it."

He had already obtained the key prop for Xu Qinghe.

It was a rusty little knife.

At the same time, her backstory ① was also unlocked: her closed-off self.

Now, in addition to the newly triggered favorability upgrade quest.

It's certain that Xu Qinghe really wants to leave this place.

But she dared not speak out, and simply endured it all.

"Wait for me here."

"I'll take you away when I get back."

Su Ming waved his hand dismissively and turned to walk towards the door.

The door to the dollhouse opened with a gentle push because it wasn't locked.

Once Su Ming had completely disappeared from the room.

Xu Qinghe, who had been listless and numb, suddenly raised her head and stared straight at the door, the faint light in her eyes flickering like candlelight.

the other side.

A game page appeared in front of Su Ming's eyes.

Anjuyuan

[Game Requirements: Doll Battle]

[Game Rules: Duel to the Death]

"duel?"

Before he could even figure out how to play the game, a giant blue virtual screen suddenly appeared in front of him.

The screen displays thousands of individual avatar frames arranged neatly.

The character that Su Ming can control is located in the upper left corner of the page.

That's the frame for the cursed doll's head.

Looking down again, a handle appeared out of thin air in his hand.

"What's going on?"

Su Ming looked at the controller with a blank expression, then looked at the screen with a blank expression again.

His lips twitched slightly; it felt like he was playing a video game.

"Do we defeat all of these characters?"

I'm not entirely sure, but I'll find out once I try.

He immediately selected a character at random.

Once the characters were determined, the screen instantly switched, and the battleground became a simply decorated residential living room.

On the left side of the living room is the cursed doll controlled by Su Ming.

It was a doll sitting blankly on the ground, like a broken doll, with several strings connecting its joints.

On the right is the character Su Ming just confirmed to take on: an obese, fierce-looking middle-aged woman.

At the top of the screen, two red and blue health bars are arranged on either side, clearly indicating the health of both sides.

The three-second countdown ended.

A large "PK" sign appeared in the center of the screen.

The woman across the way raised her hand, grabbed a metal pot lid, and smashed it directly at the cursed doll.

boom!

The pot lid struck the doll squarely in the face.

Before Su Ming could even control his character to get up and fight back...

The woman had already rushed forward, her round belly slamming the cursed doll to the ground with a series of thuds.

Then, she lifted the cursed doll with one hand and started hammering it with the other, finishing with a headbutt.

The entire combo was executed flawlessly, leaving Su Ming dumbfounded.

At this moment, Su Ming, who had finally come to his senses, frantically pressed the controller.

He was so anxious he almost crushed the handle.

"Move it! Just move it!"

"Hit her! Throw a punch, throw a punch now!"

It can be said that those who shout the loudest receive the most severe beatings.

As the woman squatted down in front of the cursed doll and began to violently punch it with both hands, the scene gradually slowed down, and two large words appeared in the middle: "KO!"

The cursed doll's health bar is empty.

In contrast, the older woman's health bar was almost full.

Su Ming slammed the controller to the ground: "Damn, who's this auntie? She's so fierce, what did she eat to grow up like that?"

"The movements are wide and sweeping, full of violent aesthetics, holy crap!"

He wished he could jump into the screen and help the cursed doll play the game.

Take a deep breath, take a deep breath.

Victory and defeat are common occurrences in warfare.

I was just not very familiar with the technique and was careless.

Su Ming nodded fiercely, picked up the controller again, his eyes sharp and murderous.

He challenged the fierce auntie once again.

"Up, down, down; left, right, left, right; ABABA; Go! Go!"

"Where's the ultimate move?"

Where is your flower of evil?

"Hurry up!"

"Go for it!"

Su Ming's hands flew, his fingers frantically tapping the buttons on the controller, while he roared like a lion.

In the midst of the chaos, the cursed doll seized an opportunity and threw a flying knife.

This throwing knife looks very familiar.

Isn't this just a rusty knife?

Unexpectedly, the woman actually knew how to block. After blocking with a frying pan, she swung the frying pan backhand and sent the cursed doll flying into the sky.

Then came a dazzling barrage of aerial punches.

A prominent notification pops up on the side of the screen: 103-hit combo.

As the slow motion ended, another large "KO!" appeared on the screen.

Su Ming smoothed his hair, chuckled twice, and said, "This is interesting. Looks like I need to get serious."

One minute later.

"Hehehe." Su Ming rubbed his forehead, his shoulders trembling slightly uncontrollably. "I didn't expect you could force me to use my true strength."

One minute later.

"I really underestimated you. It seems that using only three-tenths of my strength is not enough to defeat you."

One minute later.

"Very good, you are the first woman to force me to use four-tenths of my strength."

One minute later.

"No one has ever seen me use even five-tenths of my strength. I, Su Ming, am willing to call you the strongest auntie."

"Destroying the heavens and the earth."

Death is like the wind.

"die."

"die."

"Die, you bastard!"

Inside the dollhouse, Xu Qinghe immediately lowered her head when she saw Su Ming appear.

Not right.

Something is very wrong.

The air pressure emanating from Su Ming was so low that even space itself seemed to be distorted.

With every step, the entire dollhouse trembled.

Until a large hand suddenly grabbed Xu Qinghe's head and slowly pried it up.

What appeared before Xu Qinghe was a handsome face with a bright smile, but his eyes were so red they looked frightening.

His eyes still held lingering resentment and brutality.

"Sweetie, tell me, how do you unleash your ultimate move?"

Her voice was gentle, but every word seemed to be forced out of her throat.

"You're not going to tell me you only know how to throw knives, are you?"

Xu Qinghe looked completely bewildered.

What ultimate move?

She didn't understand.

Where is your flower of evil?

"And the ability to control the puppets?"

"What about the mutation curse?"

"Is the move button ABAB or BABA?"

Su Ming's smile grew even wider.

But that smile made Xu Qinghe feel an unprecedented sense of suffocation.

She suddenly broke free from Su Ming's grasp and quickly retreated.

He curled up in the corner of the room, facing the wall, trembling, not daring to even turn his head back.

How terrifying.

This man is terrifying.

Is he going to eat himself?

Until she heard the footsteps gradually disappear.

Su Ming left.

Xu Qinghe was terrified.

Her heart, which had long since stopped beating, was now pounding wildly like a drum.

On the other side, Su Ming was taking a deep breath.

It's okay, it's okay.

We have many other options.

Since we can't beat this old lady, we can choose to challenge other characters first; there's no need to fight one opponent to the death.

Once I've mastered the skills, I'll come back and kill her~~~~~~~.

"Okay, you're the one."

Screen display switching.

A three-year-old child, eating a lollipop, stares blankly at the cursed doll.

A minute later, he met a tragic end, even his lollipop was crushed by the cursed doll.

I heard the three-year-old child wailing loudly.

Su Ming clenched his fist and grinned, "Yes, a mere three-year-old child, easily handled."

"Next."

He began to choose a challenge from among thousands of characters.

Good guy.

Anjuyuan must be the name of a residential community.

From eighty-year-old men to three-year-old children.

Even stray dogs in the neighborhood have been added to the battle list.

What kind of mentality is this?

In the entire neighborhood, even the dogs get slapped twice.

It seems Xu Qinghe has been suppressing her emotions for too long; once she's let go, she might become a lawless demon king.

For several days in a row.

During the day, Su Ming went to the first level of the abyss to collect materials for upgrading the scene.

I spend my evenings squatting in the doll room playing a doll battle game.

I'm so busy all day, I'm like a spinning top.

As Su Ming defeats more and more characters, Xu Qinghe also undergoes subtle changes.

She no longer sits stiffly on the edge of the bed all day.

Occasionally she would look out the window, or sit at her desk in a daze, and sometimes she would secretly manipulate a few dolls.

Seeing the changes in Xu Qinghe, Su Ming understood.

He didn't defeat the character, but rather the inner demons and hatred weighing on Xu Qinghe's heart.

With each character she defeats, one of her inner demons disappears.

Until this day, Su Ming had just entered the doll room.

A slender figure quickly stepped forward and gently tugged at the hem of his clothes with her fingertips.

It is Xu Qinghe.

She spoke for the first time, saying, "Brother."

"Take me away from here."

"I don't like it here."

For the first time, she took the initiative to express what she wanted.

Su Ming immediately patted Xu Qinghe's head: "Wait for me."

After saying that, he pushed open the door and went out.

Watching Su Ming's disappearing figure, Xu Qinghe suddenly let out a strange laugh.

She looked around, and the next second she frantically ripped down all the hidden cameras in the room, then let out a sharp, piercing scream.

Those colorful eyes, which seemed to hold countless stars, shattered like a piece of stained glass.

A pair of bright, colorful eyes stared intently at the doorway.

It was filled with extreme hatred and madness.

It's like a tiger about to escape its cage, revealing its most ferocious true face.
