Chapter 22: A Strange Legend

"I found a truth." Xiao Lei, who was already standing on the side, caught Wu Yun who fell down. "As long as this kid is a little bit of a danger."

"Prevention, one catch, one accurate." He slowly helped Wu Yun up. Said with a serious face.

Speaking of which, Xiao Lei has saved Wu Yun several times. But it still didn't eliminate Wu Yun's idea of kicking him. Provided, of course, that he can lift his legs.

"Everyone put out the fire." Kasan did not respond to Ray's remarks. "Let's go back quickly, Uncle Kanu asked me to pick you up in the morning." ”

Xiao Lei slowly carried Wu Yun to the door. The fat man also walked over from the door panel.

"What's wrong? Are you hurt?" Kasan looked anxious. "Did you encounter a monster?"

"No, that's all we saw him in the morning." Xiao Lei saw the fat man take over the burden of supporting Wu Yun and let out a long breath. "I haven't had time to ask yet."

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ Walked too much yesterday... Under the girl's concerned gaze, Wu Yun replied a little shyly.

"Can it hurt too?" Ray looked at the fat man and Kasan with a puzzled expression. The two shook their heads gently in imperceptible gestures. The girl pulled out the metal tube from before and poured out some ginseng pill powder. lifted one of Wu Yun's trousers.

"There are no wounds." She stopped, a little surprised.

"Can you still go?" The fat man found that Wu Yun's body was completely pressed against his shoulder.

Seeing that Wu Yun's face was flushed and he didn't say a word, the fat man didn't ask much, he bent down and attached himself. "Come, I'll carry you back."

Wu Yun got on the fat man's back with the help of Xiao Lei and Kashan. Several people discussed Wu Yun's "condition" while heading in the direction of the village.

After a short walk, we arrived in front of the jungle where everyone encountered monsters yesterday. Last night's fire has long since been extinguished. The grass and trees were all scorched black all around, and from a distance I could see a group of people gathered there, and Kanu's burly figure was the most conspicuous in it. A few people glanced at each other and walked over to that side.

Kanu and a few people gathered around. There are people Wu Yun knows, and there are also a few strangers. Looks like everyone is talking about something. Several pitch-black circles of ash powder scattered on the ground indicate that this was the epicenter of the explosion. And in the midst of them was a large, deep hole in the ground, which looked at them like the open mouth of an ancient monster.

"What kind of monster is this? Dido" Kanu looked at a heavily armed young man. The other party shook his head slightly.

"You're the only mid-level hunter we have here." Kanu looked incredulous. "Don't you even know?"

"All I can say is that this must not be a monster on our side." The hunter, known as Dido, replied, "Such a large size, and such a powerful ability to burrow into the ground... Even in the Hunter Center, I've never heard of it. ”

"Of course, I know everything about the vicinity of Mado Village." Kanu said anxiously, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have called you here." ”

"You're mistaken." Di Duo said slowly, word by word: "I'm not talking about Maduo Village. ”

"You're talking about... Kanu's face changed as if he thought of something, "Could it beβ€”"

"Barth's Wallβ€”the Wall of Mirrors?" As soon as this sentence was said, everyone was in a hurry, and Wu Yun was like entering a vegetable market, and the noisy sound was endless.

"What did Kanu just say? Why do you have this reaction? Seeing this scene, Wu Yun's curiosity began to be unbearable again. Asked in a whisper.

Seeing the three of them with incredulous expressions. Wu Yun found that he seemed to have made a huge mistake. Asked a well-known thing.

"I don't have any outsiders at home. My family never told me anything about the outside world... He quickly rounded himself.

Several people suddenly realized, and under their sympathetic gaze, Wu Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then I'll tell you about it, that's a long story." Xiao Lei looked well-informed, "Then it has to start from many years before the Great Destruction." Of course, these are all legends left behind, and many of them have no real evidence. ”

"In the far west of the continent, there is a huge wall that completely separates us from the world over there." Ray looked into the distance, it was said to have been built hundreds of years before the Great Destruction erupted. ”

"The purpose of the construction is said to be to defend against foreign enemies. As for who built it, what the specific enemy is. Now it is unknown. Little Ray pouted. The various sources left behind are also not mentioned. ”

"Then came the great destruction." Xiao Lei's face darkened. "It destroyed so much that the wall was hugely damaged, with gaps in some places. One day people suddenly noticed that a large group of monsters were coming through from that side. They were absolutely terrifying to humans who had just experienced a catastrophe at that time. ”

"And then?" Wu Yun was fascinated by what he heard and hurriedly asked.

"People can only gather strength. The independent forces were also united. "Little Thunder's voice is getting louder and louder" And in this all-human cooperation, a scientist named Bart stepped forward, and he led his team to invent a variety of powerful weapons and equipment to help people resist monsters. By chance, he discovered a material that was rapidly prototyping and extremely difficult to destroy. ”

So he led the people to recapture the gaps and used the material to fill them as quickly as possible. Xiao Lei looked admiring. "And so the crisis was resolved."

"And then?" Wu Yun knew very well that things would not be so simple. He was desperate to know why people had that weird look on their faces.

"In order to prevent the recurrence of the disaster, the entire wall was re-covered. Then he placed two giant cannons, which were the most high-tech at the time, on the city wall! Xiao Lei saw that his words obviously completely attracted Wu Yun. I couldn't help but be a little excited. "In honor of Dr. Bart's exploits. The reconstructed wall is known as the "Bart Wall". And that kind of material is very reflective when molded, and can reflect people nearby almost as clearly as a mirror. Therefore, everyone wants to save trouble, and also calls it "mirror wall." ”

"And the name of those two cannons is the Giant Cannon of Light~" Kassan's eyes were full of stars, and she interjected excitedly, "I really wish I could have a chance to touch them!" ”

Wu Yun glanced at her a little curiously. This girl seems to be particularly interested in weapons.

"About a few decades after that catastrophe. The Wall of Bart and the Cannons of Light fulfilled their mission perfectly. Xiao Lei was a little dissatisfied with Wu Yun's distraction. Deliberately said in an eerie tone: "The facts that happened after that are very strange, but there is indeed an accurate record.

"That is, one day more than a hundred years ago ... The army and scientists who were supposed to be guarding the mirror wall suddenly fled there en masse... ”

"Why?" Wu Yun immediately interrupted Xiao Lei's narration.

"I don't know. Not a monster attack anyway. Xiao Lei looked calm, "If it was that reason, the whole thing wouldn't be called an unsolved case." ”

"People fled and marched to the nearest city. But halfway through, cannibalism began. Xiao Lei looked puzzled.

"Wait until the receiving troops arrive. Few people have survived. ”

"Did you turn into a zombie?" As an American drama fan who has chased "The Walking Dead" for many seasons. Wu Yun immediately thought of this possibility.

"Zombies?" Now it was Lei Lei's turn to ask him. "What's that?"

"It's also a legendary monster." Seeing Xiao Lei's reaction, Wu Yun didn't dare to say nonsense. "I heard that it was transformed by a human being who had lost his mind. Become bloodthirsty and eat each other. ”

"Uh... What you say is disgusting... All three looked disgusted.

Because they were too young or unqualified, no one noticed them from the beginning, and the hunter named Dido next to Kanu had a cigarette in his mouth and listened quietly to the discussion. It looks like it's nothing to do with itself. Hearing Wu Yun's description of zombies, he was suddenly shocked. So much so that the cigarette butt in his mouth almost fell. He took a step forward. I opened my mouth slightly to ask something. But then he retreated. Revert back to the same indifferent look you used to be. But he apparently focused on the conversation of several young people. There was a hint of awe in his azure eyes.

"We don't have the kind of thing you said here... Xiao Lei waved his hand. It seems that he wants to erase what Wu Yungang said from his memory. "Those people are normal. At least it doesn't look like a problem. The troops also brought back a few survivors. Unfortunately, he committed suicide for unknown reasons that night. ”

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚β€ Seeing Wu Yun's face surprised. Xiao Lei was very satisfied with the dramatic effect. He continued, "The mirror wall lost control, and the people on the mainland were terrified. But it didn't take long for them to discover that the uncontrolled walls were still meticulously carrying out their previous orders: to destroy the monsters that tried to get close to the walls. ”

"People were relieved and organized troops to reoccupy the mirror wall. But when they reached the mirror wall, they were surprised to find that they were enjoying the same treatment as the monster - the bombardment of the giant cannon. In the face of this super-powerful weapon, people had to give up their intention to get close to the mirror wall. In the end, it was decided to ignore it. Just left a defense force far away. And so it continues to this day. ”

"Do you see that red glow?" Little Thunder pointed to the distant sky. Wu Yun had already noticed that point of light, so he naturally nodded again and again.

"That's the observation point set by the leader." Wu Yun wanted to ask what the leader was. But what happened before made him feel that it was better not to continue to expose his ignorance of some basic common sense.

"Impossible!!" A man's voice interrupted the conversation between the men. Wu Yun saw that a thin man looked excited, it was Lei Duo from the prop shop. "Needless to say, the silver wall is so strong that it can pass through it. The movement caused was enough to shatter the Radiant Cannon. And the leader's defense force is not vegetarian either. Not to mention that no news leaked out. ”

Looking at everyone's expressions, it shows that everyone still supports his point of view.

"That's it, Dido." Kanu looked at the man beside him and said slowly, "I'll go to McGee with you, and we'll go to the Hunters' Guild to see if there's any information." ”

The man had been observing Wu Yun before. At this time, Kanu called out to take his attention back. He paused for a moment and nodded.

"Let's go back to the village first, and get our goods ready," Kanu said as he turned to the crowd, "I guess this will be the last train after winter." If you have anything you need, I should think about it. If you miss this time, it's gone. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd entered noisy mode again.

"Uncle Kanu is going to McGee, so we can prepare our stuff as well." Kashan said happily.

Stuff? What to prepare? Listen to them, is Kanu going to the market? Wu Yun looked at the excited three people in confusion.
