The puppy curled up its body and barked at them several times before it sat down on the ground.
"Professor, is there something wrong with it?" Angor carefully asked through their Spirit Bond, "It's strange that the parasites here aren't trying to latch onto it."
Angor quickly noticed the strange look in Sunders' eyes and realized something.
However, when he asked his question, Sunders became hesitant. "It looks like an ordinary dog, but for it to be here … Something is wrong."
Even if the puppy was just an ordinary dog in the Eye of Truth, how could an ordinary dog move freely in the darkness?
A ball of dancing flame suddenly appeared in Sunders' hand.
Without warning, the flame opened its eyes and transformed into a fire sprite that rushed at the puppy.
Let's see if we can find out.
Sunders' eyes glowed as he carefully observed the energy waves coming from the puppy. Before the fire sprite could reach the puppy, a shadow suddenly appeared in front of the puppy and shielded it from the incoming fire sprite.
Sparks flew and scattered in all directions.
Following a muffled sound, a figure as white as jade appeared in front of them.
It was a woman who stood on tiptoe like a ballerina. She was wearing a beautiful dress with golden patterns on a black background. Her exposed hands and feet were as white and tender as lotus roots.
However, her face … looked like that of a wooden puppet. His eyes were wide open, and there were obvious signs of assembly from the corners of his mouth downwards. One could faintly see that there was a piece of wood in between the cracks.
The puppet woman stood in front of the puppy and slapped the fire sprite into pieces.
"She's …" Angor looked at the puppet in confusion. "Professor, is she Yorkshire?"
Sunders considered and shook his head. "The shadow that attacked me wasn't a human."
The puppet woman squeaked, lifted her skirt, and half-knelt down. She opened her mouth and spoke in a soft voice, "Greetings, Lady Shava."
Every syllable was accompanied by a "ka ka" sound.
Angor still didn't know the truth about "Shava". He didn't even know if the puppy was a man or a woman. However, it was obvious that the "Shava" that the other party was referring to was him.
What should he say? He frowned. Was he going to embarrass himself like last time when he faced Olga?
The puppy on the woman's back suddenly barked at him. "Hey, Miss. You're right.
"Woof! Woof!" The little dog barked at the puppet woman and even pounced on her, biting her little foot.
The puppet woman lowered her head and looked at the dog beside her feet with a puzzled expression.
Angor and Sunders looked at each other. What's with the dog? The fact that the puppet woman had blocked the flames for it was obvious that there was something wrong with the dog.
But why would the dog, who had been proven to be problematic, suddenly attack the puppet girl who seemed to have saved it?
The puppet woman didn't attack the puppy either. She just watched it bite. As a puppet, no matter how it bit, it would not feel any pain.
After biting for a long time, the puppy finally let go. Angor could see a circle of teeth marks on the puppy's foot.
Next, the puppy wagged its tail at Angor as if saying "I'm awesome, please compliment me".
"I think it's a stupid dog," Angor said.
Sunders nodded in agreement. "Yes, it's a stupid dog."
Due to the dog's interruption, Angor forgot about replying to the woman and focused on the puppy. The puppet woman suddenly opened her mouth again. "Mister Watcher, are you here to stop the queen's plan again?"
Again? Sunders was a little confused. "What? Did Fox, that little fox, tell you? "
"How rude. Mister Watcher, you have no right to call the wielder by her name! "
"Not only can I call her name, but I'll also kill her." Sunders narrowed his eyes and released several ripples from his body.
The ripples quickly reached the puppet woman's body.
The puppet girl was instantly drowned by the ripples. The ripples immediately turned corporeal, like ropes that bound her limbs completely.
Just as the puppet girl was about to fall into a passive position, a strange golden line flashed across every joint on her body. The golden line connected to the void, and it was as though someone was controlling her from the void. With a gentle tug, she flew into the air, completely out of the range of the ripples.
While in the air, the puppet woman also released a large number of golden strings to attack Sunders. However, the strings seemed to be avoiding Angor on purpose.
Sunders appeared behind the puppet woman in a flash and slapped her body into hundreds of pieces.
However, the hundreds of parts were quickly reassembled into a complete puppet on the other side by the golden threads in the void.
Angor was surprised to see this. Did he just start a fight because of a disagreement?
This was not a battle he could get involved in. He quickly told Toby to back off. "Professor, I'll leave now. I'll keep looking for the others." Sunders nodded.
"Yeah," Sunders replied.
Angor didn't notice that the spotted puppy had suddenly appeared beside him and was rubbing its head against his leg.
Angor patted the dog's head. "Get out of here, you silly puppy. If they get you killed, you won't know how to explain it to anyone."
With that, Angor turned to leave.
Behind Angor's back, Spotted Puppy suddenly showed a confused look.
Angor only ran for a few dozen meters when he suddenly saw the sky turning dark. He then heard Sunders yelling, "Watch out, Angor!"
Angor turned around and widened his eyes in shock.
The spotted puppy suddenly opened its mouth. Its head, which was about the size of Angor's palm, suddenly grew hundreds of times bigger. The pitch-black mouth was about to bite Angor.
Angor tried to react, but it was already too late.
His vision went dark as he was swallowed into the puppy's stomach.
Sunders did not miss the whole scene. He was fighting the puppet, but he was still paying attention to Angor. When the puppy approached Angor, he kept an eye on it.
But as Angor said, the puppy was just a silly puppy. It only came to Angor to ask for a pet.
When Sunders relaxed a little, Angor said something to the puppy and left. The puppy stayed where it was for a while before it suddenly dashed toward Angor. Its head expanded as it ran, and in the end, it swallowed Angor whole like a dog swallowing the sun.
The puppy suddenly became as fast as Angor when he fully activated the sequence of gravity.
He wanted to warn Sunders, but it was already too late.
Sunders' eyes were filled with anger. He dashed toward the puppy.
After swallowing Angor, the puppy turned back into a cute puppy again and barked innocently. When it saw Sunders coming, it panicked and ran into the darkness.
The puppy was even faster than a Bloodline wizard who specialized in agility.
Sunders had to keep the puppet busy while chasing the puppy, but he could not catch it. The puppet woman was not strong, but the golden strings were strange. They were almost as strong as Fox's white strings. The puppy was also faster than Sunders expected. When he finally got rid of the puppet woman, the puppy had already disappeared into the darkness.
Sunders gave the dog a cold glare. Instead of chasing after the dog, he turned around and began to fight the puppet woman.
He kept asking questions while fighting. He wanted to know where Fox was and who the puppy was.
However, the puppet woman did not seem to want to answer. She kept making cracking noises. "Mister Watcher, don't be so stubborn."
A moment later, the puppet woman was reduced to dust and wood shavings, while the golden thread slowly retracted into the void.
"Crackle crackle …" A series of strange noises came from the void.
"A living Watcher is a valuable resource. Too bad the queen can't use it. It's just a burden."
A sharp voice came from the void and reached Sunders' ears.
"Who are you? Yorkshire? "
Sunders stayed in the air for a while and slowly landed on the ground when no one answered him.
As soon as he landed, he sensed the drop of blood on Angor's body. Soon, he looked to the northwest.
His bloodline told him that the blood was coming from that direction.
It was the center of the outer city, which was also where the vortex in the sky was located.
Sunders already went there, but he sensed something strange in the center of the vortex. When he tried to go inside, he sensed danger looming over his head. When he heard the loud noise coming from the teleportation hall, he gave up on exploring the area.
But where did the puppy go after eating Angor? Just in time. Sunders planned to check it out anyway.
With that in mind, he stomped on the ground and dashed toward the center of the vortex.
He did not know how Angor was doing, but he left a warning function in the blood. If the blood was attacked with too much energy, it would automatically explode.
Since the blood did not do anything, Sunders believed Angor should be fine.
The dog had been trying to please Angor all the time. Why did it suddenly eat him?
Sunders was also curious about the puppy. Why didn't he sense any energy ripples from it? Also, he could tell that the puppy was just an ordinary dog. Still, the puppet woman, the puppy's incredible speed, and the sudden enlargement of its head indicated that there was something wrong with the puppy.
If the one controlling the golden threads was Yorkshire, the puppeteer, who was hiding in the void.
Then what was this puppy?
Could it be that there were other nightmare monsters coming out from the tunnel other than Yorkshire?
