Mono only spared a glance before continuing to run forward.
After running a short distance, Mono discovered that the doors to the rooms ahead were actually unlocked. This instantly put him on high alert.
Every one of these rooms had countless dolls hidden inside; he knew this from the hands that had reached out from behind the doors just now.
To
Now that the doors were unlocked, if he walked past like this, the dolls inside the rooms would definitely be disturbed by him.
Mono found that there was more than one room with an unlocked door.
"Clatter!!"
Bang?
As his footsteps reached the outside of the first room's door...
"Clatter!"
Ssh?
A burst of noise instantly came from inside the room.
And then, countless doll figures appeared at the doorway.
They all seemed to sense Mono's presence; in the middle...
...unceasingly, they squeezed outward frantically, causing dust to fall from the door cracks in waves.
Mono hurriedly shone his flashlight over,
they struggled with all their might, wanting to...
...but they all squeezed together in the small space,
then he rushed straight past.
When he reached the next room, the same scene occurred again.
However, this time a doll successfully rushed out of the door and lunged toward Mono from the path ahead.
Zhen lunged.
Mono turned the light directly onto it, and the doll froze in place.
Immediately after, with a sliding tackle, he passed right under the doll's feet. Without the slightest hesitation, Mono continued to run.
"Click, click, click?"
Every time he passed a room, a large group of dolls would rush out from behind the unlocked doors.
Mono maintained full concentration and was not caught.
By the time Mono reached the end of this hallway again, the area behind him...
...was already filled with a dense mass of doll shadows.
Once they lost the light's illumination, they would start moving toward his position.
position.
Mono ran while keeping the light on them.
They chased while he moved, and stopped when he shone the light.
Finally, Mono successfully passed through the main door again and then slammed it shut.
The dolls that were hot on his heels crashed directly into the door, making a series of booming sounds.
Mono quickly moved away from the door.
The slightly deformed door only gradually became quiet again.
These dolls would only act when they sensed someone nearby. He had successfully evaded the pursuit of the dolls in the hallway.
ooo
Seeing that the tightly closed door had gone silent, Mono re-checked his direction. He had now crossed a hall, crossed a corridor full of ghostly hands, and walked eastward for a distance.
He had already covered more than half of the journey.
Now, as long as he continued to walk east, he should be able to successfully reach the second room where the fuse was placed.
Although the running just now was thrilling, in fact, Mono wasn't very afraid.
Because he still held the flashlight in his hand.
The facts also proved that his intuition was correct.
As long as he was cautious, these dolls posed no threat to him while he held the flashlight.
ooo
After walking east for a short while, Mono arrived at another hall.
This hall was just like the one he had first stepped into in this ghostly place—dark, gloomy, and filled with eerie dolls of all shapes and sizes.
Mono had already experienced this; seeing this scene, he didn't feel much fear.
He also set off and walked forward.
Coming close to the first doll again, Mono stopped. This doll looked a bit different from the previous ones, quite distinctive; its head was gone, but...
Mono looked at the large red teeth hanging from its neck and took a few extra glances. This doll's teeth were really huge.
The massive incisors were neatly arranged, glinting with a cold white light under the flashlight's beam.
If one were bitten by this mouthful of large teeth...
