Even at this moment.

"sorry."

Luo Ling said softly.

It wasn't her fault, but she felt she owed an apology.

The woman's expression was a little surprised, as if she had not expected that the "Lord" would say such a thing when he appeared.

But then she smiled and said,

"It's ok."

The next moment, consciousness dissipated and all memories came flooding back.

"Alyssa."

This is her name.

Now, it is her rebirth.

"The effect of the 'Forbidden Magic Doll' this time doesn't seem to be very good." At this time, a man in black said helplessly, "The message sent back from the religious master, the feedback was almost zero."

"Well, after all, it has been used for sacrifices several times before. Now it's just the remaining part. Even if it is cut into pieces, it won't yield much for sacrifice." Another man in black continued, "But anyway, it's considered a job well done. At this time, it's not easy to find someone with the qualifications of a 'Forbidden Doll'."

As they chatted, it seemed as if what they had just handled was not a life but just an insignificant item.

The so-called "forbidden dolls" are the "price" they use to sacrifice to the weird in exchange for power.

However, what these men in black did not see was that behind them, a thin hand stretched out slightly and grabbed the edge of the coffin.

When they noticed the movement, they looked back and were almost scared to death.

I saw a body barely held together by white mycelium, picking up the head placed at the head of the coffin and comparing it to its own body.

"Ghost!"

This was the first time that Luo Ling tried to dominate others. The overflowing white mycelium replaced all the flesh and blood in this body, weaving a hazy veil that turned into clothes, and stood up.

But...I didn't stand firm.

With a thud, Luo Ling fell back into the coffin.

It’s not that Luo Ling is clumsy, but there are other reasons.

"I didn't expect that two sacrifices had been made before this one..."

Luo Ling sensed the condition of this body and looked through the memories of the original owner. A chill went straight to his bones and his hatred for these men in black increased a little more.

Before this sacrifice to the "White Witch", Alisa had been used in two strange sacrifices. The first sacrifice took away her eyes, and the second sacrifice took away her legs.

All I got in return was two extra pieces of barbecue.

This is not just ordinary gouging out of eyes and chopping off legs, but being taken away from the concept.

Just like the artist sacrificed one of his fingers during his first battle with Luo Ling, that finger disappeared forever and could not be regenerated by any means.

Unless the sacrifice can be taken back from the weird side where it was sacrificed.

Luo Ling has returned the flesh and blood to Alyssa, but unfortunately, Alyssa's eyes and legs have nothing to do with her.

Even with the help of Puppet Rumor's power, he cannot be reborn.

So now what Luo Ling cannot see with his eyes can only be replaced by the vision of spores.

It is also unable to walk on its own legs, but can use the growing white hyphae to support its body and move.

So, when the men in black were in doubt, what they saw was the next even more terrifying scene.

The white mycelium emanating from the coffin spread out, supporting the blind saint, and gradually approached them.

Although these men in black are awakened, their strength is not even at the middle level. Even though Luo Ling can only display a few abilities with the help of this body, he still defeated them instantly when they met.

The white mycelium condensed into a solid entity, piercing through the hearts of several people in an instant, and then activated "reading" to extract all their memories.

Following the memories of these people, Luo Ling found the "religious figure" they mentioned.

However, the "religious man" was obviously prepared for this, and before Luo Ling could take any action, he severed his connection with these memories at a "price".

"Sure enough, it's the evil pioneer..."

Luo Ling suddenly understood why the apostle forces had become enemies with the evil pioneers who were also on the weird side. They were indeed a group of annoying guys.

Just as she was thinking about it, one of the men in black who had just been stabbed to death by her suddenly came back to life, as if he had some kind of ability.

Without any hesitation, he ran out of the church.

He ran and shouted, trying to attract his companions.

But he had just left the dilapidated church not far away when Luo Ling, transformed into Alyssa, slowly appeared behind him.

Another mycelium pierced out, and this time Luo Ling did not leave any chance and directly tore the entire corpse apart.

"Want to escape?"

In front of a dangerous and strange incarnation, there is no option of escape.

Alyssa's last smile appeared in his mind, and Luo Ling couldn't help but feel heartbroken, and said softly,

"I can only help you get a small revenge first. Next, it will be the turn of all the evil pioneers."

After completing all this, Luo Ling planned to disperse her power so that the deceased Alyssa could rest in peace.

But at this moment, a frightened and timid voice sounded.

"Sister, sister?"

Luo Ling stopped moving, and the spores’ sight fell.

A girl with short flaxen hair and freckles on her face was clinging to the corner of the wall, peeking at him tremblingly.

The girl was about the same age as Luo Ling herself, and looked somewhat similar to Alyssa, with the same hair color and pupils.

Luo Ling found Alyssa's memory and was silent.

The girl is Alyssa's biological sister, named Stasha. The barbecue obtained from the previous sacrifice and the bread she usually gets as a "saint" are basically given to her sister.

"elder sister?"

Stacie tried to speak again, but her frail body shrank back a little.

In the dim vision, she couldn't see her sister's figure clearly, but she felt that they were similar for some reason, so she boldly called out to her.

Stasha did not see the body that fell beside Luo Ling. Although there was a strong smell of blood, it did not seem particularly noticeable in this slum filled with all kinds of smells.

Looking at the girl's figure, Luo Ling inexplicably thought of himself and his sister.

Her relationship with her sister is very similar to that of Stasha and Alisa...

Luo Ling had experienced how heavy a blow her sister's death was to her.

Therefore, Alyssa’s death must have been a big blow to Stasha.

"That's all."

Just be a sister for once.

Luo Ling gathered his strength and retracted all the mycelium. His legs instantly went limp and he leaned against the wall.

Stasha only saw the shadow in front of her tremble, and the familiar feeling came back instantly. She didn't care whether it was her sister or not, and rushed over to support the figure.

"I'm... fine."

Luo Ling tried her best to speak in Alyssa's tone.

It seemed to be the characteristic of the puppet, she was so good at imitating others that she was no different from Alisa herself.

When Stasha heard this voice and tone, she hugged Luo Ling and sobbed slightly.

"Woo, sister... It's great that you're still alive... They all said you were dead, I didn't believe it, and they even threw stones at our house..."

It was because she didn't believe that her sister was dead that Stasha ventured to the church to look for her sister.

You know, even in the urban area of ​​Victoria, it is still very dangerous for a young girl to go out in the middle of the night, let alone in the chaotic slums.

Stasha wiped her tears and looked up at Luo Ling, with some snot hanging on the tip of her nose.

Luo Ling felt inexplicably sad.

Stasha didn't know that her sister was indeed dead, and died in the most tragic way.

From Alyssa's memory, Luo Ling could learn that she was dismembered alive.

Only when the breath of life faded away did they finally cut off the head and hang it above the coffin.

Because what was sacrificed was "flesh and blood", not the corpse.

The pain of being in the darkness with no one to turn to, the powerless struggle, Luo Ling, who was reading the memory, seemed to feel the same way.

"Sister is fine." Luo Ling gently touched Stasha's hair and whispered, "Let's go home."

Somehow, she felt a bit like a sister.

When the elder sister realized her identity as a puppet, did she feel as complicated as she does now?

"All right!"

Stasha nodded vigorously, then bent down and carried her sister on her back as usual, then carefully held onto the wall, supporting her sister with her thin body, and walked towards home.

but...

Stasha was a little surprised.

The burden on my back seemed to be a lot lighter than usual.

"Sister, you seem to be a little lighter?"

"Is it? lol."

This is a little life trick for making good use of puppet songs.

Chapter 5: "Acting on Behalf" at Midnight, Watching from the Sky (k)

The house where Alyssa and Stasha lived was considered relatively good in the slums, although it was also shabby, drafty, and covered in various patches.

But at least there is a place to shelter from the wind and rain.

However, when Stasha carried Luo Ling back to the house, Luo Ling saw that the house had been beaten to pieces by some thugs, and the few daily necessities in the house had been looted.

From Alyssa's memory, we can learn that this house was obtained because Alyssa became a "saint".

Even bread, which is usually considered a luxury in the slums, can be enjoyed by her younger sister Stasha almost every day, thanks to her role as the "Saint".

However, not everyone can take on the role of "Saint".

Alyssa herself didn't remember it, but the man in black remembered it very clearly.

Only those who possess the qualifications of a "forbidden doll" can serve as a saint.

The so-called "forbidden magic puppets" are actually just ordinary people, but they possess some strange qualifications.

If you are lucky enough to successfully awaken your ability, you will become an awakener on the weird side.

Of course, the possibility of this... is quite low.

In addition to her relatively affluent life compared to other poor people, Alyssa's duty as a saint is to offer part of herself as a sacrifice to the "Lord" when the "Church of Light" composed of men in black needs to make a sacrifice to the "Lord" in exchange for the authority being handed over to the church.

When there is no sacrificial ceremony, the saint does not need to do any work, nor is she allowed to do any work. She can only stay in the church...that is, the shabby little church, for fear that an accident would destroy the qualifications of this "forbidden doll".

Alyssa was only allowed to go home one day a month, and this was an opportunity she got only after threatening to commit suicide. Otherwise, she would not even be able to confirm the safety of her sister.

Outsiders do not know the pain of being imprisoned and sacrificed.

But this price only guarantees bread for survival and a house that barely provides shelter from the wind and rain...

But in the eyes of others, the so-called saint is someone who does nothing but is supported by others. Even her family members can rise to heaven with them, and her younger sister Stasha can even have the luxury of going to school.

However, because of the Church of Light, even if he was jealous, he could only hide it in his heart.

However, everything changed instantly after the news of the saint's death came out.
