Chapter 193: The Mother of Science Fiction (5)

The gate of the outer moon is guarded, there are high walls around it, and there are people patrolling above the city walls.

The alarm will only sound if the other party may break in, and when the alarm sounds, everyone in the city will gather in the tetrahedral moon pillar, which is protected by the moon pillar, which is also a device to protect the "moon god".

Zhou Yu happened to be in the corridor at the edge of the moon pillar, and followed the people who poured in from various rooms into the moon pillar, the space in the moon pillar was very large, and there was a lot of chaos inside, people came in one after another, and the dream hunters in the moon pillar stood next to the door, like people waiting to get on the train next to the tram.

In the crowd, Shelley was waving to Zhou Yu, and there were several noble and heroic ladies standing beside her, and Zhou Yu hurriedly walked over.

"We'll all have to go out and guard the moon pillar when everyone comes in, and the alarm won't stop until then." Shelley said.

"Oh, good." Zhou Yu nodded, he thought at first that it was the three demons who took Xiao Hei to break into the city, but it was unlikely to think about it, if the three demons came, how could there be time to sound the alarm for everyone Yuezhu? It was razed to the ground in minutes.

The ladies were not "strangers", the oldest was Jane Austen, the youngest was Ezell Voynich, and the next few were Elizabeth Gaskell and George Sand, and the famous BrontΓ« sisters.

Yuecheng is not full, there are still many empty houses, the number of people may add up to one or two thousand, the place where they live is relatively close to the moon pillar, and they immediately go to the moon pillar when they hear the alarm, basically it is the first time to encounter such a situation, and everyone has an uneasy and curious look on their faces.

After everyone had entered, the Dream Hunters went out in line through the nine doors and came to the outside of the Pillar of the Moon.

The Moon City was already empty, and everyone lined up in a long row, surrounding the Moon Pillar in the middle, looking into the distance, from here you could see the city wall, but there was no movement in sight.

Not long after, a soldier in a cartridge cap and a blue uniform rode up, carrying a breech gun and a saber at his waist.

A man from the Dream Hunter's team greeted him, came to the cavalry and talked a few words, then returned to the group and began to speak to both ends.

Zhou Yu soon heard the content that came over: "There are some monsters like corpses that can't be killed into the city, only dismemberment can hinder the progress of the monsters, and the threat is not high, but the soldiers are too busy, and they need the dream hunters to go to the city gate and dismember all the monsters along the way, completely voluntarily, and the rest of the people continue to stay outside the moon pillar, so as not to let the missing monsters enter the moon pillar, and they are not allowed to enter the moon pillar after cleaning up, only those who have been disinfected and cleaned can go back." ”

The speed of the word was fast, and it didn't take long for hundreds of Dream Hunters to learn the news, and the door of the Moon Pillar was closed.

Zhou Yu looked at Shelley beside him, Shelley's face was pale and he looked like he couldn't give up.

"Did I really guess wrong?" Zhou Yu asked her in a low voice.

Shelley didn't answer, and walked briskly forward, one of the few women who volunteered to dismember the monster.

As a partner, Zhou Yu had enough reasons to act with her, he didn't continue to press her, just walked forward together, and some clues should be found in the immortal, and with evidence, see how she denies it.

The undead move very quickly, similar to adults, there is no concept of zombies moving slowly in this era, and not long after Zhou Yu and Shelley left, they saw the first undead.

Frankenstein is made of corpse fragments, but these undead are not, they are similar to the zombies of later generations, they look terrifying, and they can't be killed, ordinary people should end up miserable when they encounter them, they have to face dream hunters.

With Zhou Yu's strength at this time, fighting zombies was a very boring thing, so he didn't rush to do it, and handed over the first ones to Shelley.

Shelley's weapon is an unpretentious straight sword, the body of the sword is connected to the hilt as a whole, like smashing a metal stick flat, leaving only the last small piece of the handle, and then flattening the flattened part, the edge is just sharpened, of course, the sharpness is no different from other [Qingmang] weapons.

Dismembered the first immortal with an expressionless face, Shelley glanced at Zhou Yu, and ran to the second one, there were three in this vicinity, and she killed them all in less than a minute, each of them had their heads and limbs cut off, and the limbs that left the body would still twitch, and the arms tried to grasp things, and the feet kicked one by one, as if they were running.

Continuing to walk forward, I encountered a few soldiers who were chasing and cutting down the undead, and after entering the city, the undead dispersed, and the soldiers had to disperse with them, so there was a shortage of manpower.

Zhou Yu helped them clean up the undead, grabbed a soldier, and asked curiously: "You have been chasing and chopping, and they don't attack you?" ”

The soldier nodded: "If they fight us, it will be impossible to enter the city, it is because they turn a blind eye to us and desperately rush into the city, we can't prevent it, and no soldiers have been attacked so far." ”

"Good work." Zhou Yu patted the soldier on the shoulder and continued to move forward.

Along the way, I met countless undead and soldiers, the undead were running, the soldiers were chasing, most of the soldiers were chasing on foot, and a few rode horses, specializing in cutting off the heads of the undead, but it was useless, after the head was cut off, the undead would still continue to run forward, but it was easy to hit things.

Arriving at the city gate, Zhou Yu saw a mountain of broken corpses, a large amount of black blood, and the vomit of the soldiers.

The stench was overwhelming, the smell of corpses and feces was mixed together, and everyone burst into tears, and the contents of their stomachs were vomited, and some of the soldiers were still retching, and none of the soldiers were attacked by the undead, but they still fell down a lot because they were unwell.

The reinforced soldiers had already come outside the city, dismembering the undead, the city gate had been blocked by the soldiers, and after looking at it for a while, Zhou Yu and Shelley began to walk back again.

"There's no desire to attack, just rushing into the city, they seem to be attracted to something, like seeing a dream hunter's nightmare, it's weird." Zhou Yu said to Shelley.

Shelley, pale, did not speak, and walked back for a while, where they met the duo of Edgar Allan Poe and Tolstoy, who followed closely behind an undead man without moving a hand.

"They seem to be attracted to something." Edgar Allan Poe said to Zhou Yu and Shelley, "Follow them, find what attracts them, and you can lure them out alive." ”

However, as soon as his words fell, Shelley cut off the leg of the undead, quickly dismembered it, and said: "The task is to dismember them, not to track them, the moment they enter the city, Moon City has already been polluted, it is the same wherever they are killed, it is easy to kill now, in case they change again in the future, it will not be easy to kill." ”

Poe was obviously dissatisfied with Shelley's actions, but had to admit that there was some truth in her words, after all, it was unknown, and it was impossible that there would be new changes, and he left with Tolstoy.

After the two left, Zhou Yu turned his head to look at Shelley and asked, "How long do you think you can hide it?" There are a lot of people who think the same way, and maybe others are doing the same, and I bet you'll be able to find something that attracts zombies. ”

Shelley was just about to take a step, but he stopped again, turned his head to look at Zhou Yu, and hesitated for a while before saying, "I'm sorry......"

"Excuse me?" Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, this was not the answer he was expecting.

"The appearance of the undead is indeed related to me, and their entry into the city is also related to me, what attracts them...... I'm hiding in your house, you've been in a coma, so I've put things in your house, because other vacant houses may be moved in at any time, but your house will always be kept, yesterday you woke up suddenly, I didn't have time to get things back, I thought about finding a chance to get it these days, but I didn't expect this to happen today. Shelley said apologetically.

"Oh, so I'll have to take the blame for you when I find it." Zhou Yu nodded, and said: "It's nothing, just carry the pot, I said it a long time ago, I am willing to help you no matter what, but you have to give me a reason to carry the pot, there is a good reason, this pot is more comfortable to carry." ”

"You don't blame me?" Shelley was surprised by Zhou Yu's calmness, such a big thing happened, and he was so wronged, he didn't even blink an eye.

"It's not strange at all, let's say, what the hell?" Zhou Yu waved his hand and said very simply, the task has finally progressed a little.

"It's the leaves of the Luna Tree, which I stole from the 'Luna' device." This time Shelley did not hesitate, and said it very simply.

"Leaves? What do you want that leaf to do? Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, in the real Moon City, the Moon God Tree is not deciduous and no one is interested in the Moon God Tree Leaves, the people who just arrived in the Moon City more than 20 years ago have experimented with it, the leaves are useless, they will disappear soon when they are picked, and new leaves will grow on the trees.

"I've seen an ancient source that the leaves of the moon god have the effect of restoring people's sanity, and the resurrected people are attracted to the leaves, just like these immortals." Shelley looked in the direction of Zhou Yu's residence and said, "You're right, there must be someone who will use the undead to find something to attract them, let's go to your house as soon as possible and transfer the things away." ”

"So your purpose is to resurrect the dead, but not Percy, I'm half right." Zhou Yu and Shelley ran to his house together.

Shelley nodded: "I want to resurrect my dead child." ”

"I said it earlier, I said I was willing to help you." Zhou Yu finally knew the purpose of the mission.

"You've been helping me before, but since you've forgotten, I don't want to involve you anymore, and after resurrecting the three children, I'll take them to quietly leave Moon City and live in seclusion somewhere else." Shelley knew that she couldn't hide it at this time, and told Zhou Yu her secret-
