Today, I Have Yet to Become a Doll

She couldn't use the rabbit!

The rabbit's charge was insufficient to harm the Duke, and what's more, the Duke was holding Zhu Zhu. Once the current coursed through Zhu Zhu's body, she would die before the Duke even had a chance to be affected!

So, she threw out the four beads.

In the dollhouse, she had been allotted twelve beads, used eight, and had four remaining. These were her last remaining beads!

Also the only offensive items that could take effect immediately!

The beads smashed into the Duke, and she opened her eyes wide, finally seeing the hoped-for thunderous explosion!

With a boom!

But the Duke's body only swayed, and he didn't release Zhu Zhu.

The beads blasted a bloody, red hole in the already charred skin of his back. The Duke glanced back at Bai Youwei, his eyes filled with venom.

Bai Youwei bit her lip tightly, supporting herself with her crutch as she walked forward.

The Duke looked at her leg, smiled mockingly, and turned his gaze away, dragging the struggling Zhu Zhu towards the torture chamber.

Bai Youwei's face was pale, and her steps became more frantic. She couldn't catch up to him!

Suddenly, two figures rushed out from behind her, heading straight for the Duke and Zhu Zhu!

It was Su Man and Yu Yaqing!

They raised their swords, hacking fiercely at the Duke! Even knowing that he was invulnerable, knowing that he was immortal, as long as they could force him to loosen his grip even a little, and save Zhu Zhu, their efforts would not be in vain!

They stabbed his back, stabbed his ankles.

They chopped at his wrists, chopped at his head.

No matter how they attacked, the Duke seemed to know their purpose. He held Zhu Zhu tightly in his hand, never letting go.

He slapped Yu Yaqing against the wall with one hand, and then swung the other at the persistently entangling Su Man! Su Man was knocked back by the force, falling to the ground and twisting her previously injured right hand, letting out a painful groan.

At this moment, the Duke finally arrived outside the torture chamber!

The walls rotated in parallel, revealing a passage. Just as the Duke was about to drag Zhu Zhu inside, the struggling Zhu Zhu suddenly threw something out!

A snowflake!

[Snowflake: Only snowflakes can invite winter's guests; the guest leaves when the snowflake melts.]

The effect of this item had always been unclear, so no one who came out of the dollhouse had ever used it. But now that Zhu Zhu's life was on the line, she couldn't care about anything else and risked using her last life-saving item!

The Duke froze, stopping in his tracks.

In just one second, a blizzard suddenly raged indoors! The temperature plummeted!

A giant snowman, nearly three meters tall, walked out of the accumulated snow. It was completely white, covered in ice and snow, but it had red eyes and sharp claws. When it raised its head and roared, it was like the chilling howl of the north wind passing through the land.

The snowman roared and charged straight at the Duke, suddenly pouncing on him and dragging him into the torture chamber!

Yu Yaqing and Su Man quickly pulled Zhu Zhu out!

One of them carried Zhu Zhu on her back, and the other carried Bai Youwei, running away with all their might.

Unexpectedly, as they passed the room near the stairs, Hu Ya ran out of it in a panic, colliding with them!

This time, Hu Ya really didn't do it on purpose. She had originally wanted to hide properly and wait for everyone to die before trying the key, but the temperature suddenly dropped, and she heard the snowman's roar, feeling uneasy. So, she wanted to leave the third floor and find a safer place to hide.

Bai Youwei and Zhu Zhu, of course, knew exactly what Hu Ya had done, but now was not the time to settle personal grudges. The beast behind them could catch up at any moment!

Everyone hurried downstairs.

Hu Ya saw the fight at the end of the corridor and followed them downstairs in a panic.

Su Man gasped and asked, "How long can the snowman hold out?"

"Not long," Zhu Zhu said, feeling lost. "The guest leaves when the snowflake melts. If it were winter now, this item could last a long time, but in the torture chamber… there's a brazier…"

The snowman would melt soon.

And they had nowhere to hide.
