I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today - Chapter 429: 429: Button Eyes

Chapter 429: Chapter 429: Button Eyes

The big mouth of the plush cat opened, blocking Shen Mo’s escape route!

Shen Mo quickly changed his direction, slashing at the cat’s eyes with his sword!

Thump, thump, thump!

A huge plastic button fell to the ground, bounced twice, rolled to the side of the road, and fell over.

Only a piece of black thread remains where the cat’s left eye was.

Mary shouted angrily, “You horrible people! I will kill you all! Kill you all!!!”

The doll cat meowed, almost standing straight up, and then pounced on Shen Mo ferociously!

“Brother!” Shen Fei, with his eyes red in anxiety, raised his axe and charged!

Bai Youwei was horrified, thinking that he was going to his death, but Shen Fei’s nimble movements surprised her. With Shen Mo and Yan Qingwen’s help, he managed to slash the doll cat several times!

However, regardless of whether its limbs were cut off, its belly was slashed open, or its eyes were gouged out, the doll cat remained a doll cat, its relentless attacks overwhelming everyone.

Robin fell injured against a wall.

Shen Mo, Yan Qingwen, Lun Ang, Yu Yaqing, and Shen Fei gradually shifted from aggressively attacking to passively defending.

If it were not for their experience in the maze, they might have collapsed from exhaustion long ago.

As for Tan Xiao and Jiang Hao, they had been missing all this time.

Bai Youwei was very worried.

She was worried about the situation at hand, but also about Tan Xiao. He was like an open book, transparent in all his actions. If Jiang Hao had malicious intentions, Tan Xiao was likely to fall into his trap.

It was as if her brain wanted to split in several directions, worried on one side and anxious on the other.

Bai Youwei bit her lip tightly, finding herself engulfed in anxiety.

The night lasted a full six hours, and not even an hour had passed. They could not afford to continue grappling with Mary and the cat here!

Should she let the rabbit out now? …No, she couldn’t!

The rabbit could be used for surprise attacks, but it wouldn’t last in a protracted fight! If it frequently released lightning, its electrical energy would quickly run out!

The most pressing matter was to get everyone to retreat entirely!

…But where to retreat?

No matter where they might hide, they would be found by Mary and the cat. What would be the point of such a retreat?!

The others gradually retreated from view while still fighting, leaving Bai Youwei’s line of sight. She noticed the button eyes the doll cat had left on the road.

The Button eyes…

Eyes?

Bai Youwei’s mind went blank as she vaguely felt that she had overlooked something. On closer thought, didn’t this situation seem familiar?

Back at the dollhouse, the Nail Tooth Monster seemed to have X-ray vision, heading straight for her as soon as she entered the house!

It was the same now!

What was the commonality between the dollhouse and this game of hide and seek?

She desperately scanned her surroundings.

What was the commonality…

Where was the commonality?

Both were full of childlike fun?

Why were both full of childlike fun?

Because…

Because…

…Dolls?

Bai Youwei paused.

As her thoughts connected, she suddenly became incredibly lucid and looked around again—

Indeed…there were so many, countless dolls!

Whether it was at the previous gift shop or the subsequent candy house, there were countless dolls on display, fluffy ones, rubber ones, ceramic ones, wooden ones, clay ones, fabric ones, felt ones…

All sorts of dolls.

Mary was watching them through the eyes of these dolls!

“It’s the dolls!” An idea sparked in Bai Youwei’s mind. She rushed out of the treehouse and threw the rabbit at Mary, shouting at the same time, “Scatter!!!”

Everyone fighting with the doll cat retreated instantly. Shen Fei was a beat slow, but Shen Mo pulled him away!

Before he could figure out the situation, the cat in front of him suddenly collapsed to the ground! Electricity snaked across its body!

Bai Youwei shouted from the doorway of the treehouse, “All the dolls here are observers! Find a place without dolls to hide! Don’t let the dolls see you!!!”
