Crossing the Other World: Slave Loli will not be covered by the veil

Xiaer came to Ye Xi with great concern. Although she knew that the wound had healed, she still wanted to check the injury.

But Ye Xi acted as if she didn't care. The blow that was fatal to an ordinary person didn't seem to cause her much harm.

“It’s just too much!”

"You really scared me to death just now, you know that!"

Xiaer shouted at Ye Xi angrily. On the surface, she seemed to be cursing, but in fact, she was crying with joy in her heart.

If it were an ordinary person, even Charles himself, he would not be able to withstand the attack of the claw that directly penetrated his entire chest, heart, lungs, and ribs. His survival rate would be infinitely close to zero.

But it was Ye Xi who bumped into it himself, creating a shocking scene on the scene. It was truly an extreme one-for-one exchange.

"Are you worried about me?"

"Isn't this nonsense! Their target is you!"

"You could have just abandoned me and escaped on your own, so why did you keep doing these unbelievable things to save me?"

A drop of water appeared on Ye Xi's face. She looked up and found that Xiaer was crying and his voice became choked with sobs. He was extremely sad and angry.

"Are you crying?"

When Charles heard this, she suddenly realized that she couldn't stop crying, and quickly let go of her hands to wipe away her tears.

Ye Xi was also surprised. It was not normal for an elf to cry. This meant that her emotions were shaken by something important, and she was afraid of losing it, which led to her tears.

Ye Xi smiled, then became serious again.

The surroundings were not completely safe at this time, because a pair of cunning eyes were staring at the two of them, and they could faintly hear strange laughter echoing in their ears.

"It's too early to relax now. I'll explain it to you later."

Ye Xi returned to combat mode, and the doll that was kicked away suddenly reappeared, slowly emerging from behind him with a sinister laugh.

"Hehe~ Very good, amazing!"

"Just now, you completely overturned my understanding of the concept of judge."

"What a perfect creature it is... Material that will never be within my reach in my lifetime."

The mysterious man in the black robe suddenly appeared from somewhere, muttering something that neither of them could understand.

The "material" she was talking about was probably related to the "doll" of the doll.

"If you need materials to make dolls, go find a store. This place is just a wasteland, and there is no such material as you mentioned."

The mysterious man chuckled and said, "No, what I need is far away and right before my eyes."

"That troublesome fellow is finally dead. Although he's nowhere near as strong as an orc, he's still good enough to be used as cannon fodder."

Ye Xi listened in a daze. Although he was more than capable of perception and analysis, he was completely confused by the metaphor of the riddle.

After all, in the past, dolls were just everyday items used to entertain children.

But Charles immediately understood what it meant.

The "material" that the mysterious man mentioned is a combat weapon made from the body of a living creature.

"Ye Xi, this woman in front of me is very tricky."

"She is a puppeteer who likes to turn other people's bodies into puppets for her own use."

The mysterious man was a little surprised that someone would remember this profession that no longer existed.

The profession of puppeteer is very unpopular in this world, even less popular than that of puppeteer.

Not to mention whether this profession can win the favor of children, just the hideous-looking puppets are enough to make people feel scared.

Moreover, the movements are very stiff, which is regarded as an ominous symbol of arrogance, evil, etc., especially in some dim places, which fully displays the overall horror of the puppet.

Twisted, stiff, and eerie are the stereotypes that puppets give people.

Ye Xi looked carefully at the lifelike doll and felt a little familiar for some reason.

"In that case, I will take both of your bodies as well."

As soon as he finished speaking, the doll began to move.

The claw that was broken off by Ye Xi miraculously flew back into its hand and was welded back seamlessly.

The mysterious man quietly came to the doll's side, leaned close to its ear and whispered: "Your dolls are here, go and hold them in your arms~"

Ye Xi and Xia immediately felt that something was wrong. The doll's blood-red eyes suddenly lit up, and its mouth cracked into a cut that touched its ear, revealing an extremely terrifying smile.

"Hey hey ~ I found you ~"

The doll let out a creepy laugh, and not only did its appearance become more hideous and terrifying, but even its body began to emit a gray mist.

The mysterious man quietly stepped aside and stood there, watching the two of them silently.

The doll showed its sharp claws, and its image became less and less like a doll. The threat of death that was coming towards him made Charles lose his sight.

"This feeling...why..."

Charles was trembling all over. The body of the doll in front of him was torn apart, with its upper body spread out to both sides, revealing bloody fangs and minced flesh.

It seemed as if it would pounce on Charles and swallow him up at any moment.

"Wake up, Ciel!"

Ye Xi shouted, and Xiaer came back to his senses in an instant, realizing that the doll had not changed at all, and everything was just an imagination caused by fear.

"So that's how it is. This place has a mysterious power that interferes with the thoughts of living beings, causing them to hallucinate and intimidate them to the extreme."

"It's the uncanny valley effect, Ciel. Don't look directly at the creatures around you, not even me."

"Isn't this Death Valley? When did it become the Valley of Terror?"

From the beginning, it was just Ciel's idea, and the doll never turned into that horrible appearance.

It still maintains a certain form, but the claws are reattached and it looks real.

The mysterious man also didn't know why Ye Xi was not affected by the uncanny valley effect.

Later I realized that Ye Xi had never looked directly at anything, and his sight was adaptable, so he didn't fall into that uncomfortable reverie.

"This doll looks very similar to a human, which makes us feel uncomfortable and accidentally triggers the uncanny valley effect."

"I guess it's related to this place. The combined torture of the environment and the panic will greatly weaken a person's sanity, leading to madness."

Suddenly, the mysterious man came to the doll again and said a few words silently. It then retracted its claws, relaxed its body, and its aggressiveness gradually disappeared.

Ye Xi tilted his head when he saw this. It seemed that the other party did not intend to fight anymore.

"What a wonderful body... not only has extraordinary strength, but also outstanding intelligence."

"You are the most perfect doll I have ever seen. I really want you to be my only treasure."

"But let's forget about this one. Two against one is too unfair. But I will enjoy our next meeting. What will you choose then?"

The mysterious man finished speaking, then waved his hand, and the doll quickly lit up its claws and rushed towards Charles.

But Charles reacted quickly and immediately moved aside to let the doll pass between the two of them.

Ye Xi suddenly realized something was wrong. When he reacted, the mysterious man had already escaped and the doll was also called back.

"You're actually using dolls to attract our attention?"

"She knew she had no chance of winning, so she chose to retreat."

Ye Xi also discovered one thing. The body of the strong man whose head was separated from the body had disappeared, leaving only a pool of dried blood.
