Chapter 176: Book of Gods (2)

Jin Cheng wondered when Tang Cuo would find his boyfriend was gone.
He was still wondering why it was always him who triggered the side mission every time. The first time he was sucked into the painting, the second time he was forced to jump off the cliff. This time, he fell into the book again.
Side mission: welcome to the puppet kingdom
"Ding!"
In the crisp bells, Jin Cheng was sucked into the book. The instant weightlessness made him see a flower, and when he regained his sight, the wind screamed in his ears, and the clouds passed him by.
There was a clear sky in front of him, and he was falling fast with his back to the ground.
"Hi!" A cheerful hello came from the side. Jin Cheng turned his head and saw a cloth figure of life waiting with him descending across the clouds. He wore a black tuxedo, a high hat and white gloves, and a centipede-like stitch pattern crossed the bridge of the nose from the eyebrow to the back of the left ear.
The corners of his mouth widened, revealing two rows of teeth made of small white pearls.
The system's announcement sounded at the right time: "Robbery! Robbery! Doll master Herodotus' toy house was robbed! Herodotus was mad! No way, the angry Master Herodotus had to pay a reward, target -The thief who grabbed the pearl teeth!"
Pearl teeth?
This is not right here.
Jin Cheng reacted very quickly, and immediately found out the prop rope, but the thief, who was ten meters away, suddenly took off his hat and waved with him. Then the two of them fell into a huge cloud, and their eyes were blocked.
It only takes one second to travel through the clouds.
In addition to Jin Cheng's body, there were lively cheers and the gathering of crisp bells.
"Dingling, Jingle, Jingle..."
In celebration-like cheering, Jin Cheng fell into the sea of ​​bells. No, it's an ocean of puppets. Jin Cheng smashed heavily into the pile of puppets, and countless body puppets raised his hands to hold him up, and each of their wrists was tied with golden bells with red ribbons.
They cheered and cheered, and the ribbons in the sky floated down like dreams.
Jin Cheng turned around to find the thief for the first time, thinking that it must be missing, but did not expect the thief to stand in a puppet group more than ten meters away and smile at him.
He grinned and saluted Jin Cheng. He put a high hat on his head, and the whole person seemed to get in, and disappeared in a blink of an eye from head to toe.
Still want to run.
Jin Cheng raised his hand to support the head of a puppet, and flexed flexibly. He jumped from this head to that shoulder, and a few ups and downs came to the thief's side.
He shot like a power, throwing out hooks and hooking the brim, but he could look at it—there was a thief under the hat.
The cheering continues, and the puppets all have a strange face, showing different skin tones depending on the fabric. The color and shape of the button eyes are also different, but almost all of them have exactly the same smile.
Looking around, the puppet kingdom finally unveiled the mysterious veil in front of Jin Cheng.
Windmills in the style of sewing machines, chimneys in spindles, colorful coil towers, arches in scissors legs, similar traces are everywhere in the kingdom, and velvet ribbons are flying on flagpoles everywhere, paved on every road Red carpet.
Seeing this wonderful scene, Jin Cheng blew a whistle and put a bowler hat on his head. He couldn't help but want to say "Thank you".
But he hadn't done anything yet, and the puppet army burst into a warmer cheer than before. Jin Cheng looked high and saw two puppet soldiers coming out of the castle carrying a tray with a length of ten meters. On the tray were stacked white dresses and a pair of shiny leather boots.
This suit, in terms of size, is afraid that it can only be worn by giants.
"go ahead!"
"go ahead!"
The puppets shouted loudly, guarding the tray and swarming along the red carpet.
Jin Cheng couldn't find the thief, so he temporarily followed the team, and met the puppet who lived in the wooden castle halfway. They carried a black umbrella made of wood more than ten meters high, and walked on the road like an old tracker.
The two sides joined together and came to a square together. Far away, Jin Cheng saw that there were still many puppets on the square. This time it was not made of cloth or carved from wood, but a more humanoid porcelain puppet.
They have the most perfect posture, the closest to the face of mankind, the only shortcoming is probably no eyes, only two black holes. At this moment, they were struggling to pull the rope, shouting slogans, trying to erect a huge porcelain on the square.
That is also a puppet.
Jin Cheng almost instantly understood who the puppet's clothes and puppet's black umbrella were for, and they used to decorate this largest puppet.
"Go forward!!!" The puppets are still rushing forward.
The puppets still held up their black umbrellas.
The porcelain figurines were all in a city, and in a cheer, the huge doll was finally erected, revealing its full picture.
The puppets all moved. He was dressed on a long ladder, and the whole square was filled with grand joy, and even the porcelain puppets without eyeballs seemed full of fanaticism in their empty eyes.
Jin Cheng stood on the roof on the side of the square and looked at it, inexplicably thinking that this doll was familiar.
He hadn't put on his eyeballs yet, and his complexion was pale due to the texture of porcelain. Several puppets climbed onto his shoulders, dragging heavy hats to wear them.
In The Book of Herodotus Aesop, Jin Cheng looked at it and remembered the book mentioned by Polly. If you guessed right, this Herodotus may be the puppet master Herodotos mentioned in the side quest, but is this Aesop related to the rebel Aesop?
It's also a coincidence.
He now feels that this puppet looks like Aesop.
And when this doll with a height of more than 20 meters was dressed neatly and more and more resembled Aesop, the little puppets underneath were commotion.
"eye!"
"No!"
"eye!"
"No!"
...
They shouted, and the scene suddenly started to get out of control.
The smile on his face was gone, and all the dolls were like headless flies, anxious and flustered. The two porcelain puppets collided together in a panic, their bodies shattered, and the wolla-la tiles scattered all over the place, even their heads were split, and their insides were empty.
"Ah!" The puppets scattered around, the noise seemed to be pressed the pause button, they formed a circle, looked down at the scattered pieces of porcelain puppets, motionless.
The scene is a bit weird.
"Slap", God pressed the switch again at this time.
A puppet pointed to a black gem in the fragment and shouted cheerfully: "Eye! Eye! Eye!"
The puppets found the gem and shouted. Happiness is like a viral infection, and the entire square has restored its previous celebration in a flash.
Jin Cheng stood at a high place and saw that the black gemstone was the heart of the porcelain doll, perhaps like a magic crystal providing energy. Such a small piece is still too small for the giant Aesop.
So the porcelain dolls began a happy suicide.
They took a brisk pace and even danced. When the chests collided with each other, the cracking sound of "click" and "click" rang in every corner of the square.
The other puppets set up human ladders on "Aesop", jewels passed quickly in their hands, and threw them into the empty eyes of "Aesop".
They sang happily with no lyrics, but the melody was full of joy of labor.
"La La La,
La la la,
La la la la la,
..."
Before the song was finished, the square was filled with fragments of porcelain dolls. Seeing that "Aesop's" eye socket was about to be filled, the nearest puppet on the eye socket continued to reach down happily, but received nothing.
"eye!"
"Gone!"
"eye!"
"Gone!"
"..."
The puppets went crazy again, yelling like crazy on a square full of fragments of porcelain puppets. But no matter how they found it, they couldn't find a black gem again.
Jin Cheng looked at it with complete leisure, like an unrelated visitor, and even sat down on the glazed tile roof. But I never imagined that in a second, those puppets suddenly looked over in unison.
Thousands of puppets, button eyes, wood eyes, no matter what kind of eyes, staring at him without blinking. As if the pause button was pressed, all expressions were frozen and all breathing was stagnant-
Oh, yes, the puppet didn't breathe.
"eye!"
"catch him!"
"eye!"
"catch him!"
With a click, God pressed the switch again.
The puppets swarmed and grabbed the debris under their feet and threw it at Jin Cheng. Jin Cheng evacuated quickly, and a rain of debris began to fall behind him. "Dang Dang Dang Dang" shattered the glazed tiles.
But the puppets didn't let him go easily. They overwhelmed them from all directions, and they didn't even know where to move the huge slingshot. Two puppets pulled the elastic rope, and one puppet was bounced into the sky.
He picked up the wooden sword and cut his head to Jin Cheng.
"Lao Zi hasn't done anything yet." Jin Cheng mumbled as he ran.
In this puppet kingdom, perhaps he is also accompanied by default. Those porcelain figurines were killed in battle, so he, who looks most like porcelain figurines, would naturally have to be dug into the eyeballs.
But he just came to catch a thief.
Jin Cheng tumbling to the ground and turned around with a sonic attack. The sound blade is like a knife, and the joints of the puppets are unloaded.
But there are too many puppets, and the puppets took a shuttle-style boat and outwrote it from the small river. At that speed, the word-the time is like a shuttle.
Rocket-like.
"Ahhhhhh!" A breathing kung fu, they were killed by holding the embroidery needle.
Jin Cheng raised an eyebrow, turned and ran. Through an arch, the scissor-like door frame suddenly closed and almost cut Jin Cheng in half.
He turned around, and the two puppets stood above the handle of the scissors, giggling.
Jin Cheng also laughed angrily, and threw a pop-up egg (Magic Modified Version) in his backhand.
At the same time, Tang Cuo, who has discovered that his boyfriend is gone, is also in a fierce battle and is overwhelmed.
Puppet Polly holds his book, the magic light flashes on the pages, and the pages automatically show the names of several books. These books are scattered throughout the library, and even if they are called out, their titles have the same word-wave.
The next moment, the book opened, and monstrous waves surged from the pages. A roaring dragon rushed from all directions to try to engulf Tangcuo.
Tang Cuo called this "search keywords".
"Wow!" The Holy Light shield blocked the water dragon, but it could block one side, but not the other. Tang Cuo Lingji moved, the wrist holding the shield flipped, the water dragon hitting the shield was refracted to another water dragon because of the change of angle.
The two sides collided violently, and Tangcuo used the force of the water dragon to hit the shield, and a light backflip fell firmly on the railing on the second floor.
He gasped slightly and turned to look at Polly.
What is the key to breaking the game?
Is it just that?
Tang Cuo wondered whether it was the night's arrival that triggered Polly's runaway, or whether he mentioned the book "Sicily's Fairy Tales".
The former may have to wait until the sun rises, and the latter needs further investigation.
Of course, the quickest way to break the game is always-a bottom draw.
Tang Cuo pointed down and stared at Polly, so he had to try how powerful the full version of the adjudicating sword was. Killing Polly or snatching the book in his hand, the game is understandable.
The next second, Tang Cuo moved.
His [Sprint] skill has increased by 60%, which allows him to pull out the afterimage when he runs with all his strength. At this time Polly summoned several books, this time the keyword is-sword.
Twelve books appeared throughout the library, and there was even a book hanging above Tang Cuo's head.
The golden light appeared.
The book opened and Wan Jian struck.
Tang Cuo leaped from the railing on the second floor, with magic in one hand [flame thorns] and sword in adjudication. The moment the hands were combined to hold the sword handle, the sword energy surged to 6.6 meters, and the sword energy was not straight, crimson like fire, soft as a whip, but covered with spikes.
In the middle of the air, Tangcuo swept with a sword, and in the metal clash of "Dang Dang Dang Dang Dang", a handle sword was cut off by the waist and turned into a sword rain.
At the same time, the flame's thorns rolled more swords like a long whip. Tang Cuo turned around and took advantage of the column of the library.
Seeing it, Polly quickly jumped off the railing to escape. But he was a personal doll, his joints rattled when he fled, his limbs were stiff, and he was particularly funny.
Tang Cuo fell on the suspended stairs, looked up to see his back, and immediately caught up. He ran from the end of the stairs to the higher end, and his momentum was not reduced, as if he jumped out of the same cheetah, instantaneous skills-[Star Fall]
Jump kill skills. When jumping down from a height, it can stimulate 200% of the usual energy to reach the maximum crit.
"Click--"
The railing in front was cut off with a sword, and the bookshelf on the wall was cracked, and all the books fell down and tripped Polly.
Tang Cuo's attack was not over yet. He was almost forcibly carried by this overbearing sword trick and stab Polly with a sword. Polly held up the book to resist, the lancet pierced the cover, and finally stopped.
But the book blocked the sword, but not the sword wind. Polly's body was crushed by a powerful shock, the skin on his cheeks was cracked, and his body was so broken that the gears at the joints were exposed.
"Po... what?... don't know, Polly is just... Polly." He looked at Tang Cuo, still repeating what he had just said. Then he tilted his head and his eyes fell out.
