The four of them temporarily forgot the danger they were in because of the appearance of the Instance, and felt incredibly relaxed.
They teased the doll in front of them, and the doll cooperated perfectly, with laughter frequently echoing through the room.
This is indeed a doll that can bring joy.
After twenty or thirty minutes, everyone finally realized that it wasn't time to relax yet; they were still in the Instance.
But they still didn't suspect the doll, because their minds completely filtered out that thought.
"Alright, let's get down to business first," Tang Yun was the first to realize, saying, "We're still inside the Instance."
"Yes, yes, the appearance of this doll almost made me forget about it," Xu Chao quickly said.
Li Xingyu asked, "Where did this doll come from? Why is it in the Instance?"
Tang Yun said, "I think she might have been created by a Soul-type Ability User, and there must be a soul sealed inside the doll."
That's why it can move and has its own consciousness.
This person is quite impressive; to be able to create such a doll, they must be extraordinary.
I'm also Soul-type Ability User, and while I can create similar dolls, none of them are as cute as this one.
Wei Changping exclaimed, "Yes, this doll is simply a masterpiece. It would be wonderful if we could take it out of the Instance."
Xu Chao looked at him with an unfriendly gaze, "Take it out of the Instance? If it's taken out of the Instance, whose property is it?"
Wei Changping was taken aback for a moment, then retorted sharply, "Of course, whoever can take this doll out belongs to it."
If I'm the one who takes her out of the Instance, then of course she's mine.
"Why you?" Xu Chao looked at Wei Changping with some hostility.
At that moment, he felt that this doll should be his, and no one could take it away from him!
Even just saying it isn't enough.
Li Xingyu said, "I don't care about the rewards from this Instance. All I want now is this doll. I'm determined to bring her back!"
Tang Yun joined them, saying, "Of the three of you, I'm the only one with Soul-type Ability User here. If the puppet has any problems later, only I can fix it."
Therefore, without a doubt, this doll should be mine!
"Why should it be yours?" Xu Chao retorted, "I was the first to see it, so it should be mine!"
"Nonsense, I was clearly the first one to see it!"
"Who can prove you were the first to see it?"
"If I hadn't gone to the bookshelf to get a book, the doll wouldn't have come out at all, so it should be mine!"
The four people got into an endless argument, their faces flushed, arguing incessantly, and almost came to blows.
Looking at them, no one would imagine that they were just very united.
Now, the four of them have developed a fanatical love for this doll.
They all wanted to possess this doll and make it their own private property.
Because love at its extreme becomes possession.
"I don't care, this doll is mine!"
Xu Chao's eyes were bloodshot as he looked at the other three. At this moment, he had decided that he would do anything to get this doll.
He would kill everyone for this doll.
But the other three thought the same thing.
Just as they were about to start fighting, Tang Yun suddenly spoke up.
"Why don't we ask it what it wants? It's an intelligent doll; we should respect it. I believe it will make its own choice!"
This suggestion immediately extinguished the tension between the four people.
Yes, they can let the puppets make the choices.
Because she is a sentient being, she naturally has likes and dislikes.
At this moment, all four of them looked at the doll with a mixture of anticipation and worry.
What if the doll doesn't choose itself?
But if you are chosen by the doll, then you become the doll's rightful owner.
No one will be able to say anything then.
Tang Yun bent down, bringing her gaze level with the doll's. Her smile held a hint of ingratiation, an expression rarely seen on her usually haughty demeanor.
"Little doll sister, if you had to choose, which one of us would you pick?"
You'll definitely choose the older sister, right? Because she's more considerate and treats you better than the others.
Xu Chao shoved Tang Yun away and said, "Your question is too suggestive. I should be the one asking it!"
"It's my turn!" Wei Changping and Li Xingyu squeezed through, trying to push Xu Chao aside.
Just as they were arguing, the doll suddenly jumped out of the window and landed on the street outside.
At this moment, the four of them immediately stopped arguing and rushed to the window. Seeing that the doll was unharmed, they were relieved.
Tang Yun was the first to jump down, landing next to the doll.
The others followed suit; they couldn't let Tang Yun steal their thunder.
At that moment, the doll suddenly ran towards a house diagonally opposite, and the four hurriedly followed behind. Their love for the doll had almost reached the point of madness.
They absolutely would not allow this doll to disappear from their sight.
The four people frantically followed behind the doll, afraid that if they ran too slowly, they would lose it.
This is something they absolutely cannot accept.
At that moment, they even felt that this doll was more important than their own lives.
Because when love reaches its extreme, one is willing to die for it!
The crowd rushed into the house without regard for anything else. They stood in the empty room, their faces filled with urgency!
Because they didn't see the doll.
"Where's the doll? Where did it go?"
"It's all your fault! You scared it away! If we can't find it, I'll kill you all!"
"It's because you guys kept arguing and didn't respect its thoughts at all that it ran away!"
It's all your fault!
The four of them started arguing again, and this time, their argument was even more intense.
Just as everyone was about to start fighting, Tang Yun suddenly exclaimed, "Wait, wake up! We've been tricked!"
This is very unusual, because they are currently inside Instance and have not yet escaped danger.
How stupid must they be to argue to the point of physical violence over a doll?
This is absolutely abnormal!
Her words also jolted the other three awake. In that instant, they broke out in a cold sweat and felt a wave of fear wash over them.
What seemed like nothing was actually extremely dangerous; a single misstep could have resulted in their complete annihilation!
That doll was too eerie; they were controlled without even realizing it.
Looking back now, they were affected from the very first moment they saw the doll.
Because in that situation, if such a doll appeared, they should be on alert immediately.
But they didn't do that; instead, they developed an unusual fondness for the doll.
This fondness grew stronger over time, even reaching a fever pitch.
Just now, they even considered dying for the puppet.
Anyone with a sound mind would find this extremely abnormal.
But just now, they didn't seem to notice anything unusual at all.
"My Mental Attributes have dropped a lot," Tang Yun said anxiously.
"Mine too, it's dropped by more than half," Wei Changping said.
The other two were in the same situation; their Mental Attributes had just plummeted, and if this continued, who knew what might happen?
"We need to leave here immediately," Tang Yun said. "It brought us here with ill intentions."
The four realized what was happening and turned to leave, but then the scenery around them changed.
A chill swept over them, causing them to shiver involuntarily.
