Mystery: Survival from the Secret Doll

Chapter 90 Secret Puppet Master
The Abyss is a place independent of the real world. Its entrance is in the Sea of ​​Fog. It is the source of all evil, the land of corruption, the abode of demons, the filthiest, most corrupt, chaotic, and most polluting place.

The original novel doesn't dwell on this concept, only that anything approaching it will be corrupted and degraded, even gods unable to escape. It's unclear to what extent the demon king, Farbti, and the dark side of the universe can exploit this object, or whether they can recreate the abyss in the real world.

"We still underestimated this ancient god who survived from the Second Age."

Even if He suffered some unspeakable terrible influence, He could use some means to feed back this influence to the whole world in an even more terrifying way.

This is a typical 'If I don't have a good life, then no one else can have a good life' mentality.

"I wonder if the essence corresponding to the two paths of desire still has any residual power in that abyss."

The River of Eternal Darkness and the Wilderness of Knowledge both have power seeping out from the Western Continent, so it makes no sense that other source substances wouldn't move.

Tang's eyes darkened, and just as the system was about to say something, all the candles in the room went out after a snap of his fingers.

"Turn off the lights and go to sleep."

I can think about these messy things late at night without worrying about having nightmares.

System: "...Host, you are so eccentric."

Tang gave the system a pillow and said, "Shut down and go to sleep."

-

Saga Castle, a manor in the northwest.

In the simply decorated study, Whislek Bernstein was looking at the documents on the table.

This is a middle-aged man wearing light armor, looking old-fashioned, with a serious face, but he seems to be introverted and meticulous.

Anyone who got close to him would feel a sense of oppression from his intimidating presence, which was why he was the only one left in the study. No servants or guards stayed close to Colonel Rune.

Looking through the intelligence sent from the front this morning, Whislek Bernstein looked up at the sun outside the floor-to-ceiling window.

Today was excellent weather. While the rest of Rhun was still only beginning to cool, the Orkney Highlands had already entered the cold season. The warm sunshine made one want to touch this hard-earned warmth. Colonel Bernstein, who hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long time, had been distracted by various things these days.

There was a person standing silently on the windowsill outside the floor-to-ceiling window, but Colonel Whislek Bernstein was unaware of it. After taking another look at the scenery outside the window, he immediately withdrew his gaze and returned to his work.

“You can paint a person’s skin but not his bones; you can know a person’s face but not his heart.”

After entering the Euclidean space, Tang, who was standing in front of the window sill observing the internal situation, held the sun scepter in one hand, injected spirituality into it, and made the sun symbol begin to be filled with corrupted, twisted, weird and crazy sun beams.

"I look like a peeping Tom clinging to the window."

He muttered something to the air and then held out his hand.

"The Sequence 6 Judge is indeed a Beyonder of the Loen military, but..." After saying this, Tang began to infuse spirituality. By borrowing the system's alchemist's divinity and the high status of his own spiritual body, he began to 'downgrade' the Beyonder abilities of the Puppet Master.

He 'grabbed' the opponent's spiritual thread with one hand.

The Master of Secret Dolls possesses the most uncontrollable extraordinary ability among demigods, and he wants to make Colonel Rune into his own secret doll.

To this end, Tang temporarily gave up the control of Owen's traveler marionette named Angel, and used the autonomy of the "bionic marionette" module to support the marionette so that it would not be immediately de-marionized and die.

Black light burst forth from the Sun Scepter, shrouding the manor's servants, maids, guards, housekeepers, and cooks in the black sunlight. At this moment, a large, dark cloud drifted across the sky, obscuring a corner of the sun.

The bright sunshine outside the window dimmed.

Whistlek Bernstein suddenly raised his head, as if he had discovered something, and his expression turned extremely ugly in an instant.

His body became stiff, as if it was equipped with puppet strings, and there was a sense of sluggishness.

Someone has initially taken control of his spiritual body!

"Master of Secret Puppetry?!"

Whistlek Bernstein didn't hesitate at all. The next moment, his figure disappeared from the spot.

Accompanied by the sound of tumbling, Whislek Bernstein appeared in the garden and immediately threw out the paper man in his pocket. The paper man had turned yellow and black, as if it would come alive in the next moment and attack the holder.

He used some kind of disposable extraordinary item to escape from the area he had just been in over a long distance, hoping to interrupt the thread that allowed the Puppet Master to control his spirit.

But Whisleck Bernstein didn't bother to think about it. He found that his condition didn't improve at all by being away from his office area.

He was sure that his subconscious reaction was correct, but the other party's difficulty was obviously beyond his expectations.

When did a puppet master appear in the city of Saga?

His thoughts began to slow down, and he finally understood that the person he was facing was not a master of secret puppets, but more likely a fortune teller on the path to the demigod realm, or a person holding some kind of seal that could be controlled by spiritual threads.

"The Puppet Master cannot control me from such a distance, but judging by my mastery of the Spiritual Thread and the extent of my Puppetization, the controller is not in the demigod realm, but rather possesses a certain degree of mobility and possesses a magical item with extraordinary properties left by the Puppet Master."

Where is he? Why is he attacking me?
No, I can't think about so many things. I have to buy time.

You must choose one of the three options: escape on your own, attract the attention of others and be rescued, or kill the invader.

His face darkened as he quickly made a choice and spoke out with an indescribable sense of menace in his voice.

"No hiding allowed here!"

"It is forbidden to escape from this place!"

The two prohibitions swept around with a strong and overwhelming force. Whistlek Bernstein looked around frantically, but did not see even a piece of the enemy's clothes or a trace.

How can this be? !
He could feel the control of his spiritual body becoming more and more solid. The invader was definitely nearby!
The invisible giant hand tightly grasped the opponent's spiritual body, but there was no trace of the extraordinary person, as if he was a ghost that did not exist in this world.

Weird and terrifying, an indescribable panic made Whistlek Bernstein's face turn pale.
He couldn't detect the enemy's location, so he could only plan to rush out and seek help from other extraordinary people belonging to the Loen military.

Yes, I am in Sakya Fortress.

I'm never alone!

"Huh." An ambiguous voice sounded in Whislek Bernstein's ears. His pupils constricted violently, and he saw a distorted sun symbol appear in front of him, and a three-meter-long scepter came towards him!
