Villain MMORPG: Almighty Devil Emperor and His Seven Demonic Wives-Chapter 783: Lost Girl
Villain Ch 783. Lost Girl
The group stood rooted to the spot. Their eyes fixed on the approaching silhouette, the eerie laughter of the girl grew louder, punctuated by the occasional sound of her humming. With each step she took, the figure drew closer, her form becoming clearer through the mist-shrouded trees.
From a distance, she appeared to be nothing more than a child, her silhouette small and delicate against the backdrop of the forest. She moved with an air of innocence, her movements light and carefree as she skipped along, clutching a doll to her chest.
Despite the unsettling atmosphere of the forest and the ominous aura surrounding the girl, there was something strangely enchanting about her presence. She seemed oblivious to the fear and unease that gripped them, lost in her own world of make-believe and childish whimsy.
But beneath the facade of innocence lurked an undeniable sense of danger. Though she appeared harmless, there was something about the girl’s demeanor that set off alarm bells in their minds.
Their hearts raced with anticipation. The group braced themselves for the appearance of the ghost girl, a type of monster known for its deceptive and often infuriating characteristics. This particular type of creature was widely despised among players for its ability to trick and manipulate its prey, often leading unsuspecting travelers to their doom.
However, as the silhouette drew closer and the mist began to clear, they were met with a sight that defied their expectations. Instead of a sinister apparition, they were greeted by the sight of a sweet little girl, her appearance reminiscent of an innocent NPC.

Arcana and the others couldn’t help but cringe inwardly at the sight before them, their minds racing with thoughts of potential danger.
Allen, in particular, felt a sense of dread creeping over him as he recalled a similar encounter in the emperor’s tomb. He knew all too well that appearances could be deceiving, and what seemed like an innocent NPC could very well be a cunning adversary in disguise. Despite his apprehension, he couldn’t help but wonder if this place held a similar dark story to the tomb of the emperor.
Greatest Healer’s voice broke through the tense silence, his words betraying a hint of uncertainty as he voiced his observation. "It’s just a girl," he remarked, though his tone failed to dispel the group’s lingering unease.
Father^Alex chimed in with a question, his voice tinged with curiosity. "Is she an NPC?" he wondered aloud, his eyes scanning the girl’s form for any signs of deception.
Bored Hunter suggested a more direct approach. "Should I shoot her?" he asked, his hand instinctively reaching for his bow.
Arcana, however, quickly dismissed the idea, his tone firm as he cautioned against provoking the girl. "No, that will trigger her," he warned, his gaze fixed on the seemingly innocent figure before them. "We better be careful. If she doesn’t attack, we won’t attack her either."
Azura, always quick to consider their options, posed a question to the group. "So are you planning to just pass her by or talk to her?" she inquired, her eyes flicking between her companions.
Red_King weighed in with his own assessment, his voice thoughtful as he considered their next move. "Talking to her might also trigger her," he reasoned. "So passing her is the best choice."
The girl stopped in front of them, her smile innocent and inviting. "Hey, wanna play with me?" she asked cheerfully, her voice carrying a playful lilt.
Azura exchanged a puzzled glance with her companions, uncertainty flickering in her eyes. "What now?" she whispered, her voice tinged with confusion.
Arcana wasted no time in formulating a plan. "Let’s ignore her," he suggested, his tone firm and decisive. He knew all too well the dangers of engaging with unknown entities in the haunted forest, and he was not willing to take any unnecessary risks.
Red_King nodded in agreement, his expression wary as he kept a vigilant eye on the girl before them. "Agreed," he stated.
They walked past the girl’s side and maintained a cautious distance, their eyes trained on her intently. Each step was deliberate, their senses heightened, wary of any sudden movements or signs of danger. Despite their efforts to ignore her, a lingering unease lingered in the air, a nagging feeling that something was amiss.
After a few tense moments, they finally passed by the girl’s side, relief washing over them momentarily. But as they turned around to ensure their safety, Allen’s sharp intuition alerted him to something amiss. His gaze snapped back to the girl, and his heart sank as he witnessed the transformation before his eyes.
The girl’s once sweet demeanor had vanished, replaced by a sinister grin. Her innocent facade had been nothing more than a clever ruse, concealing the true nature of the threat she posed. Her eyes gleamed with malice.
Allen’s instincts screamed at him to prepare for battle, knowing that they were now facing a formidable adversary.
With a sense of urgency, Allen alerted his team to the danger, his voice low but urgent. "Watch out," he warned, his tone brimming with apprehension.
Allen’s instincts kicked into overdrive, prompting him to leap aside in a desperate attempt to evade the impending danger. However, before he could react, Father^Alex sprang into action with remarkable swiftness, summoning his skill.
"Barrier!"
[A barrier has been formed!]
The barrier materialized just in time, forming a protective barrier that enveloped them all in a translucent cocoon of safety.
At the same time, the air was rent with a deafening roar as a torrent of flames erupted from the doll’s mouth, engulfing the surrounding area in a searing inferno. The intensity of the flames was staggering, forcing them to raise their arms defensively to shield their faces from the scorching heat.
