"Epic weapons! This is the 'sniper' who killed the boss-level monster, I guess I'm really lucky. ”

Killing players in the Atlas has a chance to get their equipment, or it can disappear outright, and it does take a bit of luck to keep this weapon from being recovered by the Atlas.

Lin You unceremoniously put all the equipment into his bag.

Get rid of these three eyesores, and it's time to get down to business.

He turned his head to look at Ashley, a red doll not far away, holding a bow and crossbow, staring motionlessly at his red doll.

[It is a little wary of you now, and your act of helping has undoubtedly increased its favorability.]

But it is cursed, and there is an aura with a "silence" effect within a radius of ten meters around it, and you will not be able to cast skills when you enter it, so don't try to get close to it.

You can stay away and talk to it, after all, its soul is a human being. 】

“……”

The doll has no expression, and Lin You can't see its joy and anger, but the fact that the three-star monster can survive under the siege of the contestants for so long shows that it still has a certain strength.

"Ashley," Lin You called out its name first, "don't worry, I'm not your enemy. ”

"You know me?"

The puppet spoke, and the voice was actually a slightly immature girlish tone.

With the appearance of this blood-red puppet, not to mention how disobedient it is.

"No, I don't know you, but I know something about you."

"Know some of my ...... Affair? The puppet hesitated for a moment, then immediately became alert, "No! How do you goddamn monsters know about me? ”

"Huh?" Lin You asked a lot of question marks, "Who of the two of us looks more like a monster?" ”

"Of course it's you!"

The puppet replied undoubtedly, not like it was lifting the bar, which also made Lin You seem to understand something in his heart.

But there is no point in arguing about these now.

"Okay, I'm indeed a monster, but I'm a good monster who doesn't eat human flesh and goes up every day, I'm here to help you, you can lay down your weapons, let's talk?"

Lin You smiled, and his tone was sincere.

He believed that Ashley was not very old, lived on the island as a witch by profession, did not communicate with people much, and certainly did not have a lot of social experience.

Fooling this kind of innocent and ignorant little girl, Lin You feels nine out of ten.

"I don't have much to say to you!"

The puppets are quite stubborn.

That being said, it relaxed a little, after all, the other party did help it kill the enemy.

That's easy to do.

So, Lin You first made up his own situation to let the other party relax his vigilance, and then tried to ask a few irrelevant questions for it to answer, and quickly brought the relationship between the two parties closer.

After chatting slowly, Ashley found that Lin You seemed to be a "good monster".

So the more the two chatted, the more speculative they became, and it finally let down its guard, threw its weapon aside, sat directly on the ground, and began to spit bitterness with Lin You.

From it, Lin You learned more information.

It turns out that it has been here as a puppet to kill monsters in the swamp for fifty years.

It had always been human in its mind, and it was lucky enough to escape in the final showdown between the witch and the shadow.

And then it stayed here, keeping the shadow creatures of the island from escaping and preventing outsiders from entering.

In order to prevent the swamp from spreading, it killed countless swamp creepers over the course of fifty years, so much so that the puppet's body was eventually stained red with blood.

When asked why it didn't leave here, or go out to find someone to help, it was hard to answer.

Lin You knew in his heart that this was definitely not something he did voluntarily.

As for the story of fifty years ago, its telling also verified the information that Lin You saw on the stone wall of the hall.

"I'm so tired...... the puppet covered his head to show his pain, "There are so many monsters here, and I feel like I can't hold on anymore if no one comes to help......

"Why are there so many swamp creepers?" Lin You asked.

"Hey, this is actually all our mistake, after killing the High Priest Roland, we threw him into the swamp, but who would have thought that Roland turned himself into nourishment for the swamp creepers before he died, giving them the power of shadows, allowing them to breed wildly, and finally turning the entire lake into a swamp."

"What is his purpose in doing this?"

"For the resurrection, God's prophecy says that the godly will be resurrected at midnight on a certain day, when all the shadows will return to the Lord, and the godly will receive the gift of God."

“…… Well, resurrection ......" Lin You faintly felt that something was wrong, "Isn't this the final boss's forced style?" Could it be that Roland is the leader? ”

If this is the case, then he must do something, otherwise the "Shadow Returns to the Lord", the power of the swamp creepers of this lake will be concentrated, and Roland's strength will be beyond imagination.

"Another important piece of information has been obtained."

Lin You thought about it seriously and asked the last question.

"You were a voodoo priestess's assistant before, so you should know her ability to curse others, right?"

"Knowing that her curse must be activated through one of the other party's objects, she can seal the soul of a person in a voodoo doll she makes, and then follow her instructions."

"So is there any way to crack it?"

The puppet shook his head, "No, you can only forcibly destroy the doll, but the soul needs a carrier, even if the doll is destroyed, the person's soul will soon disappear, which is equivalent to complete death." ”

"Oh! I understand. ”

Lin You suddenly realized, and then pulled out the crystal crab sword.

"What are you doing?" The puppet asked curiously.

Lin You smiled, "I suddenly remembered that I might be a bad person." ”

“？？？”

The puppet stretched out his arm in confusion and rubbed his round head.

A gust of wind swept by.

In the next second, the puppet's head flew out along with half of its arms.

Lin You then swung a few knives and dismantled the puppet's body into eight pieces, especially the three steel nails behind it, all of which had to be removed without leaving a trace.

In the face of this unexpected attack, the puppet did not react at all, and it did not fight back until its body was completely destroyed, which shows that Lin You's deception plan was very successful.
