Chapter 8: The Resurrection Heart

With Anna screaming, the two men fell from the ground into a large pit underground.

In the dust, Anna looked around in horror.

This is an underground cave, and there is a water spring in the cave. The water flows from other tunnels underground, and the entire underground tunnel leads in all directions, making it look like an underground labyrinth.

Ding Dong's dripping sound sounded, and the pit was quiet and lonely.

"What is this place?" asked Anna, shocked.

She turned to look at Shen Yi: "Where did you take me?"

Shen Yi dusted off the dirt on his body, then carefully observed the pit, and replied as he looked at it: "This should be an underground cave in Transylvania." Millions of years ago, this area was volcanically active. A massive volcanic eruption is enough to bury thousands of miles of land. However, in the process of cold and solidification of volcanic lava, some special underground karst caves are sometimes formed due to the infiltration of air. These underground caves are often large-scale, stretching for hundreds of miles, and this should be such a cave. ”

"I'm not asking you how it was generated, I'm asking why you brought me here! and how do you know there's a cave?" Anna didn't understand.

"It doesn't matter, it's important that there's a friend here. ”

Anna was shocked: "Friend?"

Shen Yi didn't answer, just looked at the ground.

In the soft, damp earth, there were several large footprints about half a foot long, leading to some dark corner of the cave.

Looking into the darkness following the footprints, Anna could even feel something tall there.

"There's someone there!" Anna cried, raising her sword in her hand.

"Don't be nervous, I'm not a bad person!" a dull voice suddenly sounded.

"Come out and let me see your face!" Anna said in a deep voice.

The man in the darkness walked out slowly.

Through the light shining from the top of the cave, you can clearly see that it is an extremely hideous and terrifying monster.

It has a stature of nearly two meters tall, but it is severely deformed, and the left and right sides of the body are obviously out of proportion.

There were stitches all over the body, and each part had a grayish sheen characteristic of dead flesh, but it was different. It's like being put together by someone with countless pieces of corpse flesh.

In the head, heart, and other key parts, special devices that glow green light replace the functions of the brain and heart.

Anna finally couldn't help but cry out, "Oh my God!

Yes, this monster is the Frankenstein created by Dr. Frankenstein himself in the Van Helsing plot - it is made up of seven people who have completed a god-like feat and created man!

At the beginning of the episode, Dr. Frankistan is besieged by the townsfolk for his insane behavior, and eventually dies under the fangs of his investor, Count Dracula. And this artificial life created by the doctor has reflected the desire for father's love from the moment of birth.

Heartbroken by the death of his fatherly Franconstein, it escapes from the castle with his corpse and is reduced to ashes along with the Doctor under siege by the townspeople.

Who would have thought that this guy wasn't actually dead, but hid in an underground cave?

Purely instinctively, Anna drew the long sword at her waist.

"No, don't hurt it! It's not bad, it's just ugly. Shen Yi hurriedly pressed Anna's hand holding the sword.

"What are you looking for it for?" asked Anna, a little puzzled and a little angry.

Shen Yi took a deep look at this stitched monster with a terrifying appearance and a good heart, and said slowly: "It is the key to killing the vampire count, and it is the key to your family's door to heaven." ”

―――――――――――

By the time I got back to town, it was late.

Shen Yi and Anna tossed in the middle of the night, and they were already a little sleepy with each other.

Shen Yi was somewhat better because of the doubling attribute support, but Anna was already extremely tired.

When she returned to the room, she blinked her bright eyes and looked at Shen Yi and said, "I don't know why you did that, but I believe that you must have your own reasons for doing things." ”

"Thank you for your support. Shen Yi kissed her lightly on the forehead and left.

Looking at Shen Yi's back, there was a hint of loss in the girl's eyes.

Anna had come to sense that something was wrong.

She knew that she had fallen for Shen Yi.

This guy definitely deliberately ran to that ruin with himself.

The question is, how does he know there's Frankenstein down there?

Anna felt that the man was full of mystery.

He appeared out of nowhere, killed the dreaded Silver Wolf Leader, then took out the townsfolk in an hour, and now killed the Dwarf Devil Leader. Then he took himself to find Frankenstein.

What he did was mysterious and incredible.

She didn't know what Shen Yi said to the Frankenstein.

Anyway, after seeing the guy in the cave, he kept talking to the weirdo. The strange man nodded silently from the initial resistance to the later, and then Shen Yi left with himself.

He never gave himself any explanation

This made her quite unhappy.

As the lady of the Villaris family, Anna felt that things were getting out of her handsβ€”she was being led by the nose by this man.

But for some reason, she enjoyed it.

It's too tiring to have to do everything on your shoulders.

Lying on the bed, Anna couldn't sleep, tossing and turning, her mind was full of the shadow of the person, and she didn't fall into a deep sleep until it was getting dark.

――――――――

In the morning, Anna was awakened by the noise of the town.

There was a loud noise in the town like a frying pan.

Anna quickly ran to the window and looked out, only to see Shen Yi standing in the square in the center of the town, holding the head from the dwarf demon leader aloof, and shouting at the large number of townspeople below:

"Keep your eyes open and see clearly! This is the horrible monster that has terrified you and enslaved you for hundreds of years! Look at its face, look at its eyes, and tell me, what do you see?!"

The townspeople stared at the head of the dwarf demon leader with wide eyes, and someone shouted, "It seems to be scared." ”

There was laughter from the crowd.

Shen Yi shouted: "That's right! It's fear! Look at this guy's eyes, it's fear! They will also be afraid and retreat, they are not invincible!"

Someone shouted, "But Count Dracula is much more powerful than it." ”

Shen Yi's face sank: "Three days ago, if someone told you that the damn silver wolf could be killed, and the leader of the dwarf demons could also be killed, would any of you believe it?"

The townspeople were silent.

"Nobody believes it, does it? Yes, no one does, just as there are still many who believe that Count Dracula is powerful and terrifying. I do not deny that Count Dracula is indeed powerful, and I can tell from the strength of his men how terrible he is. In fact, I am not standing here to deceive you with empty promises and frivolous lies. I don't think I'm stronger than that guy either. ”

The townspeople wondered for a while, what Shen Yi meant by this.

Shen Yi continued: "But I hope you can understand one thingβ€”that is, whether it is the silver wolf, the dwarf demon leader, or even Dracula himself, they may be powerful, but they are not invincible, they are not invincible, they are not invincible. They have survived until now because no one has ever tried to challenge that powerful evil force. ”

"I can understand your feelings, and in order to survive, you have to endure this oppression. But I want you to think about it, is that meaningful endurance? You can not care about the lives of your neighbors, or even your own, but what about your children? Do you want them to grow up to have the same fate as you, to live under the shadow of vampires every day? Can you accept watching your children being snatched alive by those vampires, sucking their blood and watching them die while you do nothing?"

"If I'm right, at least half of you here have had your family taken captive! Do you really want to be the pigs and sheep in captivity? Even if they are slaughtered, they know how to resist! Are humans inferior to livestock?"

Anna behind the window looked at Shen Yi in a daze.

The man was giving a passionate speech loudly on the high platform in the center, and every townsman was shedding bitter tears.

He was like a natural leader, and he was quickly assimilating himself into the extremely xenophobic town of Transylvania, not only to make the people here accept him, but also to obey his leadership.

He is reuniting the scattered town of Tran into a new power......

In the square, Shen Yi said loudly: "I came in response to the call of the Lord, but the task given to me by the Lord is not for me to cleanse myself of the sins in this world, but to awaken your dead hearts! If you do not have the faith and energy to fight evil, then even if I help you destroy Dracula today, you will still have to wait for help from the outside world when new evil forces arise in the future. That's unrealistic......"

"I'm not here to be a savior!I'm just a guide!Citizens!Rekindle the cold blood in your bodies!Awaken your wrath, ignite your energy, and resurrect dead hearts! When Count Dracula arrives with his men, they will find that we are no longer a herd of lambs, but a herd of angry hounds! We may die in battle, but at the moment we die, we can say to our children that we are worthy of our conscience in our hearts! worthy of our responsibilities as parents! worthy of the heroic blood of the Tranians flowing in our bodies! We will fight for justice and survival, and we will not hesitate to die! At the moment of our death, we will be called by the Lord instead of being a humble soul wandering the world!"

"This is a war! In this war, everybody has two choices. Or shrink your head and linger for a long time, and die cowardly and inactively, or you can puff up your chest, take up arms, and die a heroic death! Which one do you choose?"

"Heroic death!" all the townspeople shouted in unison, and at this moment, the passion in everyone's hearts had been ignited by Shen Yi.

They finally realized that hundreds of years of insensitivity could not change their tragic fate, and only fighting with anger was their last and only way out.

"Take up arms! Build defenses!" shouted Shen Yi.

The townsfolk took action.
