Once in the deserted alley, Lin Dong came to a halt.
It was secluded here, without even a street lamp, just a dirty trash bin amidst the alley.
Above the trash bin, a few rats rummaged and gnawed at food, emitting piercing 'squeak squeak' sounds.
Lin Dong coldly called out into the darkness, "Who's there, come out!"
No sooner had he spoken than mechanical laughter emerged from the shadows.
Subsequently, two exceptionally creepy puppets appeared from the darkness.
The puppets had eerily realistic faces, twisted with evil smiles—the mechanical laughter had just then come from their mouths.
Seeing these two evil puppets, Lin Dong's complexion instantly changed.
Having received the Legacy of the Sovereign Witch, he recognized the spell used to control these evil puppets—it was a type of evil witchcraft known as Black Witchcraft.
They turned living people into evil puppets, sealed their souls inside, condemning them never to find peace in death.
