Today, I Have Yet to Become a Doll

The scene before her was too horrific. Zhu Zhu couldn't help but cover her mouth, feeling a physiological urge to vomit.

Everyone's face was unsightly.

Only by witnessing such bloody sacrifices firsthand would they realize just how gentle a death it was to become a doll.

"Why did Zhao Lanfen's body disappear, but Cheng Qian's is here?" Su Man couldn't understand. "Could there be something special about it?"

Bai Youwei looked around, her expression grim. "Perhaps… Zhao Lanfen hasn't disappeared; we just can't see her."

"You're saying… Zhao Lanfen is also in this room?" Su Man felt a little panicked.

Even though she was brave, just the thought of a corpse being right there, and them not even realizing it, caused her extreme psychological discomfort!

Zhu Zhu followed Bai Youwei's gaze, her eyes landing on a piece of torture equipment by the wall, her pale face turning even paler.

“…Iron, maiden.”

Su Man's scalp tingled. "Can you two speak clearly!"

Zhu Zhu tried to regulate her breathing, attempting to remain calm, and slowly said:

"This is an ancient torture device, made according to the shape of the human body. It's like a large iron coffin, with a movable door. The inside of the door is fitted with sharp nails. Once the door is closed, the nails will pierce the person inside, and these nails are specially designed to avoid vital organs, so the person won't die immediately, but will suffer torture in darkness and pain… slowly dying…"

Zhao Lanfen was very likely inside that iron maiden.

Su Man gritted her teeth, her voice trembling slightly. "There are seven pieces of torture equipment here…"

Seven pieces of torture equipment.

Seven brides.

The room fell into a deathly silence.

The thought of these inhumane instruments of torture possibly being used on them made everyone's hair stand on end, their faces pale, unable to speak.

It was as if… they had reached the edge of their psychological endurance, and fear was about to drive them crazy!

Bai Youwei tried to regain her focus.

"The gardener…" She closed her eyes, then opened them and asked, "Is the gardener awake?"

In the middle of the torture chamber floor, a man was lying.

Yu Yaqing went over to check and replied, "No, he's still unconscious, just like yesterday."

Bai Youwei looked at them and said, "Let's do it."

Kill him, and end all of this!

The fairy tale itself only ended with Bluebeard's death, so let the game end that way too!

Su Man raised the iron sword towards the man on the ground, but her face showed reluctance. The more she looked at the gardener, the more he resembled Li Li. After hesitating several times, she couldn't bring herself to do it.

"I'll do it." Yu Yaqing took a deep breath and raised her sword. “…I will stab him in the heart. If we still can't clear the game, don't worry about me, just run for your lives.”

Hu Ya subconsciously took two steps back towards the door.

Bai Youwei and Zhu Zhu stared at the downward-pointing blade.

Yu Yaqing could hear her own heartbeat, thump, thump… thump…

Her heart was beating rapidly, nervous, uneasy.

She gritted her teeth, and suddenly exerted force!

The blade pierced deeply into the gardener's chest!

The gardener woke up in an instant!

He seemed unable to believe it, looking at Yu Yaqing in shock! At the sword! Then at his pierced chest!

“Aaaaaah!!!”

He roared madly, suddenly struggling to get up! He flung Yu Yaqing away with extraordinary force! Then he stood and roared like a furious werewolf!

His handsome features became twisted!

Thick mane grew on his neck!

And his body! His body was changing rapidly, becoming taller and stronger, like a mountain blocking their path, his eyes bloodshot!

Yu Yaqing shouted, "Run!!!—"
