Chapter 171 Puppet Master
The third continent, Xindu.

In a secluded underground facility, two men groped forward along the edge.

Judging from the half-round stone roof that looks like a tunnel and the dirty water flowing along the main trunk, this is a sewer somewhere in the new capital.

The sewers in Xindu have been greatly repaired, and there is a concrete path with a width of one person built on both sides, which is usually reserved for maintenance personnel.

But the clothes of the two men were clearly not maintenance workers.

They were wearing rubber gloves and tattered work clothes, with baskets tied behind their backs, and the baskets were full of plastic bottles filled with yellow liquid.

Only part of the bottle was full, and there were many empty bottles that were not full. It looked like they were all "goods" they had just found.

Even in summer, the sewers are still bone-chillingly cold, and the smell and turbid cool air make people very uncomfortable.The man walking behind looked at the darkness in front of him, and shuddered fiercely.

"Brother...Brother, why don't we just go here, you see the oil is everywhere, it doesn't matter where you pour it?"

His voice was not loud, but the echo traveled far along the water in the tunnel.

"You know what a fart!" The elder brother scolded from the front: "The further you go in, the clearer the color is, the harder it is to be seen, you know?"

"It doesn't matter if it's deep or clear, don't you have to process it in the end..."

"What are you mumbling about? Don't want to do it anymore?"

"Do it, do it, don't say no!"

The man sighed, and took a step to follow his elder brother closely.It's just that the more I walked, the more I muttered in my heart.

He arched his nose vigorously: "Brother, do you smell a bloody smell..."

"Is it normal to smell blood in the sewer? I said, Sixth, it's not the first day you've been down the well with me. Why are there so many things today?"

"No, brother, smell it, it really smells like blood."

"Big brother" stopped, put his hips on his hips and sniffed vigorously a few times: "Well... don't tell me, the smell is really strong. I guess some restaurant slaughtered a few more animals?"

Afterwards, the eldest brother pointed to a dead bone floating along the current not far away as if to prove his point of view: "Look, it's probably a cow or a pig."

The little brother named Lao Liu became more and more frightened the more he looked at it, the smell didn't look like animal blood...

"Okay, okay, look at your frightened look, you are really useless." The elder brother looked at the sixth child with disdain, "Then let's go here today, you are here, I will go there."

Lao Liu breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly put the basket behind him on the ground, pinched his nose and poured the oil foam on the edge of the water with an empty bottle.

He tried his best not to pay attention to the half bone on the water, his hands and feet were exceptionally nimble.

The remaining empty bottles were quickly filled.The sixth child put them together: "Brother, I've got it done here. You..."

The sixth child raised his head, and the remaining half of the words stopped on his lips.

The eldest brother's basket was still placed by the water not far away, but the person was gone.

"You, don't scare me! Big brother, big brother!"

Lao Liu bravely shouted a few words, but there was no reply, and there was an echo in the hollow of the huge tunnel.

In the left basket, more than half of the empty bottles were left.

Lao Liu's heart trembled, his body trembled a few times, and he was about to turn around and leave when the scene in front of him made him too scared to speak.

A shadow emerged from the darkness. This shadow was unkempt and looked like a human being, but it crawled on the ground.

Its whole body was covered in a loose robe, its face was covered by its messy hair, and its whole body was covered in blood.

What frightened Lao Liu the most was that this "thing" had a severed hand dangling from its mouth.

"Hee hee." Shadow let out a shrill grin.

"Ah! Ghost, ghost!!"

The sixth child was so frightened that he didn't want the oil he had just stolen. He threw the basket on his back and ran away.

It's a pity that the speed of the shadow was faster than him, and a strong force came from behind him, and he was dragged into the darkness while screaming.

The dark sewer became quiet again.

Then, an abrupt male voice broke the tranquility here:

"You really aren't picky eaters."

Where the sixth child had just disappeared, a man suddenly appeared on the spot.

His appearance was so abrupt, his neat formal attire was incompatible with the filth in the sewer.

The man's voice was mature and steady, with the arrogance of a superior.

On his face is a mask, on which is drawn a hand pulling a puppet with a string.

A rustling sound came from the depths of the darkness. "Shadow" walked slowly with his broken body, stretched out his hand and brushed the messy hair on his head, revealing a small blood-stained face.

She is "doll".

It seems that she did not die under Chu Yao's sword.

But what method she used to escape from birth is unknown.

"I want to be picky, and I have to be picky." Doll said nonchalantly with that weird accent: "Why are you here, 'Puppet Master'?"

"I'm here to inform you." The puppeteer replied indifferently: "The Lord has ordered that all internal members dispatched to Kukai return immediately."

"Return? It's interesting." The doll tilted her head, and a blood scab fell from the top of her head. "This is really a once-in-a-century event. Let me guess, maybe the old ghosts above have completely broken up with the Alliance of Heaven and Man gone?"

"I just came to inform you."

"Don't be so indifferent. We are colleagues after all, and we remember our old relationship. Can my dear colleague tell me the truth?" Wawan winked at each other.

"..." The puppet master remained silent.

"Okay, okay, what a disappointment." The baby puffed up her face angrily, "What else? You came all the way here just to inform me of this?"

"Also, organize your punishment."

The doll's heart skipped a beat, and she was about to step back when her eyes suddenly blurred.

The puppeteer took out an exquisite instrument shaped like a round mirror at some point in his hand, and a cone of blue light radiated from the mirror, covering the doll's body in an instant.

"Ah! Damn it, how could you have such a thing! My spiritual power!"

A piercing scream erupted from the doll's throat, and under the influence of the blue light, her body stood still, and all her movements were under the seal.

The puppeteer stretched out a finger, and against the blue light, an extremely thin silver thread loomed in midair.

"Puppeteer! Why do you have the right to punish me! We are equal! Even if it is punishment, it will not be your turn!"

"No, I just got promoted. Just yesterday."

The puppeteer hooked his fingers, and with the blood and the howling of the doll, one of her arms was chopped off, and after spinning around in the air several times, it landed on the wet ground with a snap.

"Don't forget our commandments. 'Exposing' is a felony."

The puppeteer casually withdrew the silver thread weapon in his hand, his indifferent voice without any emotional ups and downs.

"My hand... Do you know how much blood I used to repair it? You have to pay me..."

"If there is a next time, it will not only need your hand. This is a warning from the Lord."

The puppeteer took back the instrument in his hand, and the doll fell to the ground with a painful face.

After speaking, his figure disappeared in place.His departure was as abrupt as his arrival.

"Huh...huh..."

The baby was panting heavily, with a distorted and hideous expression, and hurriedly took back his severed hand.

"You all bully me, you all bully me... just wait and see, you all have to pay the price!"
