Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 98 Puppet Master

"Hello everyone, first meeting, I'm a puppet master."

This was the first sentence that a man in a strange costume said after stepping onto the high platform.

What he stepped on was a shipping container that had been knocked down by the berets.Just now, this man who claimed to be a puppeteer was respectfully greeted by teams of puppets and models on the high stage—without a microphone, every word he said was clearly transmitted to the ears of the nine people present. inside.

The people who came out of the two containers were forcibly arranged in a neat line by the plastic models, and surrounded in the center - originally there were more than 210 nine people.

The few dozen people, after trying to resist and escape, had their thighs separated from their bodies at this time; Teacher look over.After the man touched everyone's forehead once, he shook his head lightly, and the plastic mannequins threw their arms into the dry sea, life and death.

At this moment, not far from Lin Sanjiu, lay a pair of thighs wrapped in jeans.

"If you don't want to be hurt, I suggest you cooperate with me. My request to everyone is very simple, there is no need to get hurt because of this." The puppet master smiled slightly, sounding polite.

There was a faint commotion in the crowd, but the commotion, like the last bit of the north wind in spring, quickly disappeared under the watchful eyes of the strange people around.

The puppet master turned his eyes, although his face was still smiling, his eyes were still heavy.

This is a man of indistinguishable age - he occasionally raised his hands and gestures like a teenager; when he put his hands together and stood firm, he grew sullenly old again, as if to say that he was old enough.

From the clothes, it is impossible to tell who he is: because the attire is too strange - the upper body is wrapped in strips of black leather, revealing the pale and thin skin, which looks like a It was as if a leather jacket had been scratched and then put on.

There was also a huge bright red ornament that looked a bit like a cockscomb behind his back, and swayed with his steps; his lower body was a pair of black leather boots that reached his thighs.

"I have a question."

His voice was calm, but it grabbed everyone's attention at once.

"Among the 219 of you, who is a visa officer?"

The crowd fell silent.Those who look confused, as if they want to get answers from others, are probably people who have just evolved - extremely warm hell is the first new world they have experienced, and they still don't know about the visa officer; The look on his face suddenly seemed to be from another world.

After waiting for half an hour, still no one made a sound.

"Oh - as expected, the base of 219 people is still too small." The puppet master sighed a little dissatisfied, and asked for the next best thing: "Okay, then who has the news about the visa officer? "

Lin Sanjiu's heart trembled, and he thought of Fang Dan - he exchanged a glance with Hu Changzai beside him, knowing that the puppeteer was unlikely to find himself among the more than 200 people, he still couldn't help but lowered his head as if trying to hide it go.

It didn't matter when she lowered her head, she suddenly realized that the short man standing in front of her was shaking violently.

She was puzzled.

The current situation doesn't seem to be so scary--

However, the short man seemed to be unable to even stand up, as if he was about to fall down in the next second; but he did not expect that he had the courage to speak, and his voice spread tremblingly: "Man, The puppet master..."

In the silence, although his voice was not loud, he was still captured by the puppet master on the high platform.

Puppet master...sir?
Is this guy too dog-legged?
An inexplicable smile appeared on the face of the man who claimed to be a puppet master: "You said."

"Yes, yes... I spent four or five months looking for the visa officer in this area, but there are rumors that he went to the north... You may not find it here if you look for it." replied.

Lin Sanjiu noticed that he said the words "this area" - think about it, the world is so big, if there is only one visa officer, then the chance of encountering a visa officer is too low.

The puppet master's smile faded, and with a "uh" sound, he turned his head and asked, "Does anyone else have news about the visa officer?"

The crowd was silent.

"Oh, okay. It's not that I don't trust you, but I always have to check one by one to know that the visa officer is not hiding it."A team of plastic models immediately followed him, like bodyguards.

He walked over to the person at the head of the first row, and the young man was a little defensive: "...what are you doing?"

"Don't be nervous," the puppet master said softly, as if coaxing a child, but still told everyone present to hear it clearly. "I'm just checking to see if you're a visa officer. It doesn't hurt to check."

As he spoke, he had already touched the young man's forehead like lightning.

Looking at the young man's appearance, he wanted to resist, but he didn't expect that he had not taken out his weapon, the other party was already done, and it really didn't hurt or itchy - he suddenly stood there awkwardly and didn't know what to do. .The puppet master looked a little disappointed and ignored him. When he continued to walk to the second person, the young man shouted, "I'm not a visa officer, so I can go now?"

The puppet master didn't look back: "Of course, but you have to wait."

As soon as he finished speaking, a plastic model took a step, blocking the young man's way, and the young man did not move with suspicion.

At this moment, the short man standing in front cleared his throat and cursed "idiot" to himself - he grabbed his pants with both hands restlessly, looking very nervous.

Lin Sanjiu's heart moved, and he lowered his voice and asked, "Hey, which world are you from?"

The short man was stunned for a moment, and turned his face back halfway, as if he didn't expect someone to talk to him at this time.Although he was born with an unremarkable appearance, his eyes were very flexible. His eyes stayed on Lin Sanjiu's face for a second before answering: "Ice Snowstorm. You too...?"

Lin Sanjiu nodded and said to the code, "Black Death City."

——This is the name I saw on Ren Nan's visa.

The short man said "oh": "I've been there, and the city of the black death is now gradually stabilized... Well, this time I was sent to the country place of extreme temperature hell, it's inconvenient not to say anything, I didn't expect... …”

Before he finished speaking, he shuddered and swallowed the second half of the sentence.

Lin Sanjiu sighed down the short man's words: "That is to say, I didn't expect to be so unlucky this time, I actually met a puppet master..."

The short man sighed: "So you know him too."

Lin Sanjiu didn't let the confusion in his heart reveal the slightest, and only answered yes.

"It's rare, it's rare, it turns out that you have been to the 'Central Twelve Realms'... Well, looking at you, you probably haven't heard the latest rumors about the puppet master?" The short man suddenly remembered something. Similar: "Oh, yes, my name is Shen Lianqi, let's make friends, maybe we will meet in the center twelve circles..."

Resisting that he didn't ask what the "Central Twelve Realms" were, Lin Sanjiu reported his name, and then asked impatiently, "What's the latest rumor?"

This sentence reminded Shen Lianqi, and his face turned pale again. "It is said that the ability of the puppet master has been upgraded, and it is quite evil... The few people who have been fighting against the puppet master have recently avoided his limelight and teleported to other new worlds. After all, it is those big men. After our level, it is too difficult to upgrade one level! No one can say what will happen in the future, everyone is watching the situation. Cough, what does such a big event have to do with our little shrimp? I am I never thought that he would come to this backcountry..."

Although there were a lot of things he didn't understand, Lin Sanjiu quickly wrote down every word he said.After careful consideration for a while, she chose a question that was most likely to make Shen Lianqi speak: "You say, what does the puppet master want to do today?"

"Oh, I guessed it too." Shen Lianqi's eyes have been closely following the figure of the puppet master-every time the puppet master touched a person's forehead, a plastic model stood beside that person go.He moved uncomfortably and said, "I heard that the few followers around him disappeared for a while, and when they reappeared, they had become dummies, and they couldn't take the initiative to laugh, but their abilities were not. still remain."

"As you know, these dolls do not have the ability to evolve. If it weren't for the 'arsenal', they would be just vegetables. Rumors say that his current ability can already turn living people into dolls, so he wants to gather more Some living people, come to get rid of the arsenal. But in places like the central twelve worlds, it is not easy to start casually, so why not come to these newly formed apocalyptic worlds?"

As soon as Shen Lianqi talked about the big events and gossip he was keen on, he started talking nonstop. He didn't notice that Lin Sanjiu and his companions who were listening with bated breath suddenly turned pale.

"You mean, he wants to turn these 219 people into his puppets?"

Shen Lianqi didn't say a word, and after a while he muttered, "Oh, let's see the situation... It's really not good, let's all escape according to our ability."

Lin Sanjiu looked at the puppet master not far away in surprise, and exchanged glances with his companions.This Shen Lianqi seems to have experienced a lot of worlds, and he must have a few trump cards, but how can he escape?
The puppet master moved very quickly. In such a short time, he had already checked nearly a hundred people, not far from Lin Sanjiu and his group. The creaking sound was clearly audible.

"Xiaojiu, I suddenly remembered something," a rabbit's voice suddenly came from his ears, "Isn't he going to touch everyone's forehead?"

Lin Sanjiu was stunned for a moment, and then understood.

"Your Wusu poison can kill him in a few seconds, what are we afraid of?"

The voice of the rabbit entered the ears of the three people at the same time, and their expressions suddenly relaxed.Just now I was occupied by the names of the puppet master and the central twelve realms, and I almost forgot the Wusu poison on them... Since the plastic models are the ability of the puppet master, as long as he dies, these models will die. Not enough to be afraid of.

With this confidence, when the puppet master took his fingers off Shen Lianqi's forehead, Lin Sanjiu even hoped that he would reach out quickly.

The puppet master took a step forward, came to Lin Sanjiu, and squinted at her.

At such a close distance, the puppeteer's face was astonishingly intriguing—a circle of gold dust around his slender eyes, gleaming in the setting sun; although he was tall, he was pale and thin due to his stature. , but it made him seem not at all deterrent.

The puppet master smiled softly and raised a finger.

Lin Sanjiu held his breath.

The fingers reached all the way to her forehead, stopping just a few millimeters from the skin.

"Oh, you have Wusu poison on you."
