Girls' Frontline: My Apocalypse with Dolls

Damn it...!

"Hmm? What... ugh!"

AA12 looked at Luo Fan's furrowed brows, which were so deep they could trap a fly, and was about to ask a question when Mrs. Grey covered her mouth.

Luo Fan growled, "Get down there now, quick!"

Afterwards, Mrs. Grey dragged AA12, whose mouth was still covered, back to the second floor with the Dreamer.

Sure enough, heavy breathing and footsteps sounded again, echoing above the crowd.

But as they sped away, the sound of their footsteps naturally followed...

So much so that after they had only taken a few steps, their breathing immediately became rapid... followed by an even faster pace of footsteps.

The Dreamer growled, "No, it's too late to move to the second floor!"

Luo Fan looked around in alarm, and there were several lockers next to the stairs.

He immediately rushed to the locker and opened the door: "There's no other choice, hurry up!"

Mrs. Grey dragged AA12 along, quickly opened a cabinet door, stuffed AA12 inside, and hid herself in a nearby storage cabinet.

The Dreamer was relatively small, so he hid with Luo Fan.

Thankfully, the hospital had completely lost power; otherwise, it would have been terrible if light had shone through the cracks in the cabinet doors...

No one dared to breathe loudly, because the heavy breathing could no longer be felt in their ears.

AA12 is really having a tough time right now. It has three mobile shields, and now it has to fold them all up just to barely hide in the cabinet. And if it moves even slightly, it might make noise from friction.

Now, following the clues it had sensed, the monster had come before them...

And Luo Fan, through the small crack, finally glimpsed the monster's full form...

It was entirely white, and its body was covered in horrifying wounds.

It's clearly a human head, but it lacks facial features... Instead, there's a crack that spreads from top to bottom.

There were also sharp teeth inside the crack; perhaps that was his mouth...

However, there were still two cuts on his face, and teeth were visible in those cuts.

The monster's shoulders were wrapped in a black cloth, and there seemed to be several cross-like objects behind him. Spikes below the crosses pierced through his chest.

Lofan couldn't be sure if the spikes would cause him pain, but judging from the monster's actions, they didn't seem to have any effect whatsoever...

The cracks on the monster's face trembled from time to time, like a human breathing...

Does the absence of eyes mean he is blind?

The monster stopped in front of Luo Fan and the others' lockers and looked around.

The heavy breathing, carrying a strong stench, irritated Luo Fan's nasal cavity.

"vomit......"

Luo Fan couldn't help but gag.

Almost instantly, the monster looked toward the locker.

! ! ! ! !

When Luo Fan came to his senses, he found that his mouth had been covered by the Dreamer below.

The other person looked at me with obvious nervousness in their eyes.

When he looked up again, the monster tilted its head, and the crack continued to tremble.

Then...

The monster slowly walked towards the locker.

Luo Fan's pupils dilated wildly, and sweat poured out like rain.

Did he hear himself?

This was what Luo Fan was thinking, and he dared not make any further moves.

Even so, the monster showed no sign of stopping...

Then, he stopped in front of the cabinet where Luo Fan and the Dreamer were, and stared at Luo Fan inside the cabinet.

And extended his hand...

Luo Fan felt like he was about to die.

Just before the monster's hand touched the cabinet, the sound of something falling and rolling on the ground came from not far away on the second floor...

The monster was immediately drawn to the sound and looked toward its source.

Lofan's nerves relaxed slightly as the monster's attention shifted, but he still dared not take another breath.

Then, the monster lowered its hand and walked towards the source of the sound.

It seems he truly is blind; any sound he hears becomes his primary source of information and the destination of his next action...

Or perhaps he has no evidence that "there are people" in this place.

Anyway, at least the monster is gone...

After the breathing and footsteps faded away, Luo Fan quickly pushed open the cabinet and sat down on the floor, breathing heavily.

The stench emanating from the monster's mouth and the near-deadly oppressive feeling filled him with fear.

The girls left the closet one by one and relaxed.

"Look at you, you were so close."

"That's what the dreamer said."

Luo Fan didn't refute it, after all, it was indeed because of him that he almost got discovered.

AA12 wiped the sweat from her brow, took out another lollipop, unwrapped it, and popped it into her mouth: "That was close! I thought the Commander was going to kick the bucket..."

......

Luo Fan stared at the other person speechlessly.

The good news is that the monster will likely be patrolling the second floor for a while longer.

"Let's go, now's the time..."

Even after standing up, Luo Fan's legs were still trembling slightly.

But time didn't allow him to rest any longer.

The group disappeared around the corner of the stairs, but the terrifying breathing and footsteps echoed continuously within the hospital...

91 Domain Nightmare

The fourth floor of Raccoon City Hospital

Luo Fan truly felt like he was playing a horror game. He had minimized almost every step of the way, and the hospital was so dark that only the area illuminated by a flashlight was within his field of vision.

With entrails, corpses, and blood scattered all over the ground, it's a classic horror game scene.

The slippery, sticky feeling made Luo Fan feel sorry for his boots, and Mrs. Grey's face turned extremely ugly.

She was wearing high heels...

Luo Fan had no other thoughts besides sympathy.

Although Mrs. Grey's steps remained steady, Lovan could always feel an invisible killing intent emanating from her.

It's also possible that it was caused by that monster...

By the way, maybe we shouldn't call him a monster anymore.

Luo Fan checked the enemy unit encyclopedia on the tablet and found information about this monster.

These monsters are called "Nightmare of the Realm," and they are creatures that only move within specific environments.

They have lost their sight, but in their place have gained extraordinary hearing and perception; almost any faint sound can attract their attention.

The physical strength of the Nightmare is extremely absurd, making it almost impossible to be harmed by conventional bullets and explosives, and it can drag a car with one hand.

It can be said that this creature has almost no weaknesses!

However, in order to avoid attracting attention, Luo Fan did not use the Dreamers' weapons to deal with the Nightmare Domain.

Another consideration is that if they don't make too much noise, they might not be detected by the Nightmare Domain.

Therefore, if we are as careful as possible, perhaps the Nightmare Realm poses no threat...

Regardless, Luo Fan still didn't want to encounter this kind of monster, since the girls might not be as strong as such creatures in terms of raw power.

Moreover, this monster has no origin; that is, he has no clue how it came into being.

Nightmare Domain, Nightmare Domain, a nightmare within a region, truly lives up to its name.

In any case, I have to be careful...

Luo Fan and the girls wandered through the corridor on the fourth floor, still searching for clues about the medicine storage room.

It was obvious that the Nightmare Domain had been active in this hospital for some time. The fourth floor was also in a state of devastation, with so many corpses that it was impossible to even step inside.

However, having a smaller foothold isn't without its advantages; at least the noise from each step you take is forced to be smaller.

……

"Be careful."

Lady Grey's hand guided the other person to step steadily over the corpses scattered on the ground.

Even though Mrs. Grey was wearing high heels, it did not affect her control of her steps and her stability.

But since the other party has extended a hand to me, why shouldn't I accept it?

Luo Fan had no idea that he had worried for nothing.

But both of them were happy with what they had.

AA12 would occasionally turn around, looking at the two with envy, but there was nothing she could do.

They used to be mortal enemies, how come they're holding hands now?

Although Ironblood Works seems to have been like that too...

The dreamer stared coldly at the tall woman in front of him, unsure of what to think.

Now, almost everyone is ignoring all the consultation rooms, since there's practically no point in searching these small offices.

but……

"Wait a mininute."

Mrs. Grey suddenly let go of her hand and walked towards a consultation room.

Luo Fan didn't understand what the other person meant, but he still followed them inside.

In the consultation room, Mrs. Grey picked up the stethoscope from the lectern and handed it to Lovan.

Luo Fan took the stethoscope with some doubt.

Lady Grey said, "Please take this with you, Commander. I might need it later."

Without needing to ask why, Luo Fan naturally placed the stethoscope into the tablet.

Since Mrs. Grey believes there is a need, it is highly likely that she is not wrong.

At this moment, AA12 and Dreamer also entered the consultation room, found a few chairs, and rested there briefly.

But just as everyone sat down, some unusual noises interrupted their thoughts...

"Knock knock knock knock knock..."

It's very rhythmic, and it seems to be below them...?

Luo Fan exchanged glances with the girls.

"What's going on?"

Luo Fan asked.

But the girls just shook their heads.

It seems that even those on the 4th floor couldn't accurately detect the sound.
