The place where Su Gao was staying seemed to be the interior of a Tower.

A row of Chairs sat sparsely arranged within the modest space, and Su Gao occupied one of them.

Through the nearby glass window, one could see it was night outside.

The bright, full moon shone through the window onto Su Gao, making her radiate like a moonlit elf.

Creak!

Stepping onto the dilapidated floorboards, Fu Qian walked forward to meet Su Gao’s gaze. She didn’t make a single sound the entire time.

From such a close distance, he could see that Su Gao’s flawless, pure white face was rigid, as if she were wearing a mask. Sitting there, she possessed almost no trace of a living person.

Looking closer, one could even spot countless hidden cracks across her skin, as if she might crumble and dissipate at any moment.

Something was definitely wrong!

Fu Qian didn’t rush to speak, only examining her carefully from head to toe.”Mr. Fu?”

After a long while, a glimmer of vitality finally returned to Su Gao’s eyes, her tone sounding like a mixture of joy and a sigh.

”Long time no see.”

Fu Qian nodded, giving a casual greeting.

Hearing his voice, Su Gao blanked for a moment, as if doubting whether she was dreaming.

”Long time no see.”

Then, as if life had poured back into her body, Su Gao stood up while looking at Fu Qian and offered an elegant curtsy.

”You look to be in excellent condition, Mr. Fu.”

Of course I am!

Fu Qian thought to himself.

The moment he emerged, he realized his strength had already recovered.

This confirmed his theory: the places he had been in earlier—whether helping Violeta find her mother or the five sisters’ cage—were likely her Consciousness Space, rather than the Real World.

On one hand, this explained why the five sisters inside had all looked exactly like Su Gao.

On the other hand, it perfectly explained why he had been naturally suppressed after entering the mental world in his special state.

”Are you... already at the Demigod Realm?”

As he pondered, Su Gao looked him up and down, surprise coloring her voice.

She was truly perceptive to notice so quickly, even in her current state.

”You could say that.”

Fu Qian didn’t hide it, admitting it frankly.

”Congratulations... I’m truly happy for you.”

Although she remained expressionless, Su Gao’s heartfelt joy was still evident in her voice.

”Thank you. You seem to have improved quite a bit yourself.”

Fu Qian wasn’t just being polite.

As someone at the Demigod Realm, he could clearly sense that despite Su Gao’s strange condition, her aura was even sharper than when they last met.

Standing there right now, she felt like a cold, translucent blade, sharp enough to make one’s scalp tingle.

”I...”

Unfortunately, faced with his praise, Su Gao seemed at a loss for words. In the end, she couldn’t say anything.

”What are you doing here?”

Fu Qian didn’t mind. He casually sat down nearby and surveyed the surroundings.

Through the nearby window, he could confirm they were indeed inside a high Tower.

And under the moonlight, the serene, deep waters of The Lake stretched far into the distance outside.

”I’m executing a task.”

”A task for the Yama Enforcer Squad?”

Fu Qian wasn’t surprised by this answer.

Every time he met her, she seemed to be on a mission. She was a true paragon of professional dedication.

”Mm.”

[Current task updated: Prevent Su Gao’s Dollification]

Right at that moment, a new task prompt rang out beside his ear.

Dollification?

He had to admit, this new task objective gave Fu Qian a slight start.

Was she turning into a real Doll? Did their last encounter really leave behind hidden dangers?

Looking at Su Gao’s face, Fu Qian recalled the Perfect Doll that had fused with her.

If he remembered correctly, wasn’t her name Lady Madeline?

No wonder the White Porcelain seemed to cover more of her every time they met.

”How is your task going? You don’t look so well.”

Fu Qian asked impassively.

”I’m fine.”

”Though the task really hasn’t been going smoothly. The target is incredibly cunning.”

Su Gao shook her head.

She was an honest kid and didn’t try to sugarcoat her progress.

”I almost caught him earlier, but unfortunately, he still got away. I’ve been chasing him all the way here.”

”I see.”

Fu Qian stroked his chin, his mind racing as he calculated.

If the mark of Dollification was her entire body turning into White Porcelain, then Su Gao’s condition was undoubtedly worrying. He probably didn’t have much time left.

Right now, the top priority was figuring out the cause behind this Dollification.

Was it purely an unstable condition, or were there other factors at play?

Fu Qian thought of the five sisters in the cage, feeling that they were inextricably linked to this.

Unfortunately, he had already checked his surroundings the moment he emerged, and there was absolutely no sign of any door.

Obviously, that passageway had only existed in a symbolic sense, representing his exit from the mental world. Going back the way he came seemed impossible.

Of course, there was a ready-made solution right in front of him: if the person died, the Dollification would naturally stop.

Though Su Gao was strong, she hadn’t reached the Demigod Realm. As long as he stood up and slapped her to death, there was a high probability that this task would be completed...

Fu Qian stood up.

”Which way did he go? I’ll lend a hand.”

”Mm.”

Su Gao naturally agreed, pointing upward.

”He should be right above us.”

”But you must be careful. This place is very strange. After escaping here, the target suddenly became much harder to deal with.”

”Understood.”

Fu Qian nodded and glanced at the spot where Su Gao had been sitting.

”So you were just taking a halftime break?”

...

Faced with Fu Qian’s question, Su Gao fell silent once more.

It really wasn’t that simple!

Sensing her predicament, Fu Qian smiled and didn’t press the matter.

Clearly, it wasn’t just her body; this girl’s mental state was also abnormal.

When he offered to help just now, she had agreed without hesitation. That could be understood as her not treating him like an outsider.

However, in such a perilous environment, he had appeared out of nowhere, and she hadn’t even asked why he was here. Explaining that away as merely not wanting to pry into his privacy was a stretch.

The greater possibility was that her mind had been affected, and she couldn’t even realize this discrepancy.

”Shall we set off? You’ve rested enough, right?”

Fu Qian looked at the stairs leading up.

”Okay.”

Su Gao’s answer was even more terse. She picked up her weapon resting nearby and took the lead, walking in front.

Did she still not want to trouble others, only having him hold the line for her?

Watching Su Gao’s back, Fu Qian shook his head and followed right behind her.

Upon entering a combat state, Su Gao became even sharper. She didn’t say a word the whole time, and there wasn’t a trace of hesitation in her movements.

What a reliable Hunter!

With a vanguard like her, Fu Qian only needed to leisurely trail behind.

This Tower was taller than expected. After climbing up nearly ten floors consecutively, a sudden sense of alertness rose in Fu Qian’s mind.

Looking up, he saw a figure with an extraordinary bone structure scurrying away like a bird startled by the twang of a bow, quickly vanishing into the gaps of the staircase.

”That’s him!”

Ahead, Su Gao let out a low growl, her figure suddenly accelerating.
