Chapter 198: The Mother of Science Fiction (10)
Mary Shelley had changed, she had become like a different person, but she had to do the same thing as she had done before the change - resurrect her dead child.
The change came too suddenly and completely, Zhou Yu thought of the changes before and after Tracy's subconscious awakening, but Shelley denied that she was subconscious, always controlled the surrounding environment, but became very cold, without any mood fluctuations, not like a person.
If she is really a subconscious who wants to disguise herself as the main consciousness, then this acting is too lame, and if she is subconscious, there is no need to act, killing everyone will save worry and trouble, and acting will be more tiring.
Therefore, Zhou Yu decided to believe her, but stay vigilant and observe her, if you have the opportunity to test her, you will always get an answer, anyway, the task is not "updated" now, just continue to help Shelley.
When they came to the kitchen where they had discussed the plan, Zhou Yu took out a small cloth bag tied with a linen towel from behind his waist, handed it to Shelley, and said, "This is a leaf, seven pieces should be enough, right?" ”
"That's enough, thank you." Shelley took the bag and nodded.
"You'll take care of the rest, right? What to do? Zhou Yu sat on the kitchen counter and picked up the knife again and played with it.
"The Dream Hunter's injuries will recover quickly." Shelley said without a word.
"You mean you'll be able to come out and hunt me down soon?" Zhou Yu guessed what she meant.
"It's chasing us, but it's not the time to leave, there's one last thing left, now that the materials are complete, it's only one last step, I need you to help me protect one thing." Shelley said as he walked to the window.
"Of course, I'll do my best." Zhou Yu nodded and jumped off the kitchen counter.
The two came directly to Shelley's house, Shelley's child was already here, and it is estimated that they received Shelley's notice and ran back while they were in the chaos of treating the wounded before.
Shelley closed the door, walked into the living room, moved the sofa, opened a secret door on the ground, let her child go down first, got up and said to Zhou Yu: "I will raise the lightning rod on the roof in a while, you help me guard it, don't let the other dream hunters destroy it." ”
Zhou Yu walked to the window and glanced outside, and asked, "Will someone come?" ”
Shelley nodded: "In the process of resurrection, the dark clouds will make this place very conspicuous, everyone can see it, the dream hunters will definitely come to inspect when they enter the house, I will completely seal this room, they can't get in, but the lightning rod must be exposed, it is likely to be destroyed, I need you to help me keep it." ”
Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, scratched his head and said: "I thank you for thinking so highly of me, but I really can't deal with many people, and I will hang up if there are two people who can transform." ”
Shelley thought for a moment and asked, "What dream talismans do you have left to transform?" ”
Zhou Yu counted with his fingers, slapped his thigh violently, and said, "By the way, I only need [Winding] to transform into [Blood Nightmare]." ”
"Very good, I have [Winding] that I can lend you." Shelley said lightly.
"Lend it to me? Can you still borrow a dream talisman? Zhou Yu's eyes widened.
"Others can't, I can, you can use it all the time until you leave, you have to pay attention to one thing, [Blood Nightmare] can grow, which means that it is not strong at the beginning, and you have to be careful when fighting." Shelley walked up to Zhou Yu and tapped his forehead with his finger.
There was no lightning, and there was no burning sensation, except for the door of his head being touched, Zhou Yu couldn't feel anything, but there was indeed an unfamiliar dream talisman in his mind.
I only listened to Shelley's explanation: "[Winding] can't be used now, there shouldn't be any chance to stay for a while, so you don't have to try, the specific role will be understood when you get it later, the lightning rod is on the roof, the house doesn't care, just protect the lightning rod and don't let them destroy it, please, you can go to other residences and wait, see the dark clouds come out again, I'm not sure when it will be, maybe it won't start until morning." ”
Zhou Yu nodded and said: "Then I'll go to the roof to guard, I wish you success, besides, I have a lot of questions I want to ask you, and you have to answer me when you come out." ”
Shelley didn't promise him, but said, "There are some things you can't know now, and I will try my best to answer if I can answer you, so you can get out." ”
Zhou Yu nodded, walked out of the villa, and when he turned around, he found that the door of the villa was gone, it had become a wall, and the windows were the same, all the entrances had disappeared, and the villa had become a fully enclosed box.
"This ...... Isn't it just about controlling the environment? He looked at the villa dumbfounded, first opened [blind], and couldn't see the scene in the house at all, and then stabbed a few times with his sword, which was completely unable to pierce the wall, just like the door of a restaurant.
Being able to change the door into nothing, indicating that it can affect the environment, this is the ability of the subconscious, but what about the dream charm? She has a dream talisman, and being able to lend him the dream talisman she has means that she can also control herself, which is the ability of the main consciousness.
Zhou Yu thought of the pattern he saw before entering the dream, the half-black and half-white human form, the half-black and half-white humanoid that he couldn't understand, could it be that he was referring to Shelley's situation?
"It shouldn't be so coincidental, how can I meet it in a dream when I first saw it, this is not writing a novel." He shook his head and climbed onto the roof.
Last night, he was watching from the roof of the villa next to him, but he didn't expect to change to the roof of this villa today.
Anyway, you don't have to sleep, you can lie down wherever you hide.
Shelley was full of suspicions, and he couldn't think of the result, and his blind guess was unreliable, so he simply didn't think about it.
Zhou Yu used [Winding], and sure enough, it was the same as Shelley said, and it had no effect, and then he tried to combine the Dream Talisman [Blood Nightmare], and there was an immediate change.
The body is as light as a swallow, as if a gust of wind can blow him away; The root of the tooth is a little itchy, and there is an urge to bite someone's throat; The speed becomes very fast - both in terms of movement and movement speed, so fast that you can barely feel the [sluggish], but the force is significantly smaller, and you need to absorb zero force to increase it.
[Blood Nightmare] is composed of eight dream runes: [Tooth Marks], [Blind], [Backwalking], [Rock], [Qingmang], [Blank], [Sluggish] and [Winding], and after the transformation, you can still use the abilities granted by these eight dream runes, and the speed advantage makes up for the lack of strength, and Zhou Yu at this time is several times stronger than before the transformation.
However, he immediately canceled the dream talisman combination, and the eight dream talismans did not include [branding], so the consumption of zero power was very large, and the zero power absorbed could only heal and become stronger for himself, and could not replenish the consumed zero power, so he had to cancel it immediately if he tried it.
The night seemed extraordinarily long.
I lay on the roof for most of the night, and in the early morning it was just dawning, and immediately it was dark again.
The dark clouds came, moving at an astonishing speed, and soon covered the top of Moon City, and even parts of London were affected, the first lightning strikes, and the first thunder sounds, which is deafening, and makes Zhou Yu jump in fright.
The lightning rod had been raised, more than two meters long, about the thickness of a wrist, and at the very top was a fist-sized metal ball.
The torrential rain poured, Zhou Yu was drenched in an instant, and finally found some feeling of Yuecheng, he didn't know whether it was better for him to lie next to the lightning rod or stay away, so he simply jumped down and sat on the ground and watched the sky.
The clouds rolled like waves, which was very scary, and gradually divided into layers, forming a huge vortex, and Shelley's house was in the center of the vortex.
Zhou Yu remembered the palace he saw in Grimm's dream, and the clouds in the sky were like this at that time, but fortunately they didn't go to the palace, otherwise that dream would have become very difficult.
The rain came so suddenly that the people in the moon pillar sensed that something was wrong, and sent someone out to take a look, and when they looked up, they saw a strange shape of dark clouds.
The lightning scurried through the clouds, gradually approaching the center, and when the first lightning struck the lightning rod, several dream hunters came out of the moon pillar and quickly ran towards it.
Zhou Yu used [Dimm], hid in the corner of the room, and waited patiently, the zero force absorbed by [Blood Nightmare] can accumulate and enhance his strength, but once the dream talisman combination is canceled, the zero force absorbed is gone, and he has to start again, and he doesn't need to transform to deal with these people, unless the other party has someone who can transform.
The leader Zhou Yu had seen William Thackeray, a great writer on the same level as Dickens at the time, and a good friend of Goethe, and the administrators in Moon City sent him out, obviously because of too much turmoil yesterday, and was frightened.
Thackeray came to the villa, looked at the strange building with no doors and windows, walked over and knocked on where it was supposed to be, and all he heard was the sound of his fingers tapping on the wall.
"Verlaine, go back immediately and report that there is something wrong with Shelley's house, and she may be at home." He said to a very young man beside him.
"Okay." Wei Erlun immediately turned around and ran towards the moon pillar, but he didn't run too long before he fell, and he was slashed on the back of the neck by Zhou Yu, who suddenly appeared beside him, and his neck made a "click" and fell to the ground.
When he fell, he did not make defensive movements, and he was completely unconscious, and his nose and face were swollen, and he did not move.
Thackeray frowned and winked at the two men beside him, who immediately went up to inspect the situation, not expecting that he would be unlucky next.
Sensing the enemy's attack, he turned around and stabbed his sword in the back, but the stab was empty, and the opponent dodged his attack, and another punch came at him, and the fist was imprinted on his nose.
It was too fast, so fast that it didn't have time to dodge, the bridge of his nose was broken, but Thackeray didn't panic at all, retreated as fast as he could, and turned on [Blind] to look around.
He didn't find anyone, a mixture of nosebleeds and rain dripping down his chin and on his chest, and his white shirt was dyed pink.
"Come out!" Thackeray shouted, full of momentum, but the only answer to him was the word "be careful" from behind him, and he immediately turned around, and he only saw a flash of silver light, and the right side of his neck was sturdy with a strong arm-
