Chapter 8 The Heart of Resurrection
With Anna's scream, the two fell from the ground into a large pothole in the ground.
In a cloud of dust, Anna looked around in horror.
This place turned out to be an underground cave, and there was a spring of water in the cave. The water flows from other underground tunnels, and the entire underground tunnels extend in all directions, looking like an underground labyrinth.
Ding Dong's dripping water sounded, and the pothole was quiet and lonely.
"What is this place?" Anna asked in amazement.
She turned around and looked at Shen Yi: "Where did you bring me?"
Shen Yi dusted off the dirt on his body, then carefully observed the pothole, and answered while looking: "This should be an underground cave in Transylvania. Millions of years ago, this area used to be Volcanic active area. A large-scale volcanic eruption is enough to bury thousands of miles of land. However, during the cooling and solidification of volcanic lava, sometimes some special underground caves are formed due to the infiltration of air. These underground caves are often large-scale It is huge and stretches for hundreds of miles, this should be such a cave.”
"I'm not asking you how it was formed, I'm asking why you brought me here! And how do you know there are caves here?" Anna didn't understand.
"That doesn't matter, what matters is that there is a friend here."
Anna was shocked: "Friend?"
Shen Yi didn't answer, but just looked at the ground.
On the soft and damp ground, there were several large footprints about half a foot long, leading to a dark corner in the cave.
Looking into the darkness along the footprints, Anna could even feel that there was something tall there.
"There are people there!" Anna cried, raising the long sword in her hand.
"Don't be nervous, I'm not a bad person!" A dull voice suddenly sounded.
"Come out, let me see your face clearly!" Anna said in a deep voice.
The people in the darkness walked out slowly.
With the light from the top of the cave, one could clearly see that it was a monster with an extremely ferocious and terrifying image.
It has a figure nearly two meters high, but it is severely deformed, and the left and right sides of the body are obviously out of proportion.
There are stitches all over the body, and every part has the unique grayish-white luster of dead flesh, but they are different from each other. It's like an existence assembled by people with countless corpses.
As for the key parts such as the head and heart, special devices shining with green light replaced the functions of the brain and heart.
Anna finally couldn't help but yelled out: "Oh, my God! It's that monster!"
Yes, this monster is the Frankenstein created by Dr. Frankenstein himself in the Van Helsing plot—it is composed of seven people, and it has completed a god-like creation, creating man!
At the beginning of the plot, Dr. Frankenstein was besieged by the townspeople because of his crazy behavior, and finally died under the fangs of his investor, Count Dracula. However, this artificial life created by the doctor has shown the desire for fatherly love from the moment of birth.
It was extremely saddened by the death of Frankenstein, who was like a father, and escaped from the castle with his body, and was reduced to ashes together with the doctor under the siege of the townspeople.
Who would have thought that this guy didn't actually die, but hid in an underground cave?
Completely out of instinct, Anna drew the long sword at her waist.
"No, don't hurt it! It's not bad, it's just a bit ugly." Shen Yi quickly pressed Anna's hand holding the sword.
"What are you looking for?" Anna asked with some confusion and anger.
Shen Yi took a deep look at this suture monster with a terrifying appearance and a kind heart, and said slowly: "It is the key to killing the vampire count, and it is the key to allow your family to enter the gate of heaven."
———————————
By the time we got back to the town, it was already very late.
Shen Yi and Anna had been tossing around for half the night, and they were already a little bit sleepy.
It's better for Shen Yi to have double attribute support,
Anna was very tired.
When returning 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 you must have your own reasons for doing things."
"Thank you for your support." Shen Yi kissed her lightly on the forehead, and then left.
Looking at Shen Yi's back, a look of disappointment appeared in the girl's eyes.
Anna has gradually felt that the problem is wrong.
She knew that she had been fooled by Shen Yi.
This guy definitely ran to that ruin with himself on purpose.
The question is how does he know that Frankenstein exists down there?
Anna felt that this man was full of mystery.
He appeared inexplicably, killed the terrifying leader of the silver wolf, and then took down the townspeople within an hour, and now he killed the leader of the dwarves. Then he found Frankenstein with himself.
What he did was mysterious and incredible.
She didn't know what Shen Yi said to that Frankenstein.
Anyway, after seeing the guy in the hole, he was whispering non-stop to the weirdo. From the initial resistance, the strange man nodded and silently agreed to something, and then Shen Yi took him away.
He never gave himself any explanation
This made her quite dissatisfied.
As the heavenly daughter of the Villaris family, Anna felt that things were getting out of her control—she was being led by the nose by this man.
But for some reason, she enjoyed this feeling very much.
It's exhausting to feel like you have to do everything on your own.
Lying on the bed, Anna couldn't fall asleep, tossing and turning, her mind was full of the shadow of that person, and she didn't fall into a deep sleep until it was getting brighter.
———————
In the morning Anna was awakened by the noisy noise in the town.
There was a huge noise in the town like a frying pan.
Anna quickly ran to the window and looked out, only to see Shen Yi standing on the square in the center of the town, holding up the head of the dwarf leader, and shouting at the crowd of townspeople below:
"Open your eyes and see clearly! This is the terrifying monster that once made you fearful and enslaved you for hundreds of years! Look at its face, look at its eyes, and tell me, what did you see?!"
The people in the town stared at the head of the dwarf leader with wide eyes, and someone shouted: "It seems to be very scared."
There was a giggle from the crowd.
Shen Yi shouted: "That's right! It's fear! Look at this guy's eyes, it's afraid! They're also afraid, and they'll shrink back. They're not invincible!"
Someone shouted: "But Count Dracula is much stronger than it."
Shen Yi's face darkened: "Three days ago, if someone told you that the damn silver wolf could be killed, and the leader of the dwarf could be killed, would any of you believe it?"
The townspeople fell silent for a while.
"No one believes it, right? Yes, no one believes it, just like many people still believe that Count Dracula is powerful and terrifying. I don't deny that Count Dracula is indeed powerful. In terms of strength, I can see how terrible he is. In fact, I am not here to deceive you with empty promises and boring lies. I don’t think I am stronger than that guy.”
The townspeople wondered what Shen Yi meant by saying that.
Shen Yi continued: "But I hope you can understand one thing - that is, whether it is the silver wolf, the dwarf leader, or even Dracula himself, they may be powerful, but they are not invincible, and they are not invincible. .The reason why they have survived until now is because no one has ever tried to challenge the powerful evil force."
"I can understand your feelings. In order to survive, you must endure this kind of oppression. But I want you to think about it, is that meaningful endurance? You may not care about the lives of your neighbors, or even your own life, but you What about your children? Do you hope that they will have the same fate as you when they grow up in the future, living under the shadow of vampires every day? Can you accept watching your children being snatched alive by those vampires and sucking their blood like this? Watching them die while doing nothing?"
"If I'm right, at least half of you here have had their family members taken away! Do you really want to be the pigs and sheep that were raised in captivity? Even pigs and sheep are slaughtered. Know how to resist! Are humans not as good as livestock?"
Anna behind the window stared blankly at Shen Yi.
This man is delivering a passionate speech loudly on the high platform in the center, and every townsman is shedding bitter tears.
He is like a natural leader, and he is quickly integrating himself into this extremely xenophobic town in Transylvania, not only to let the people here accept him, but also to obey his leadership.
He is reuniting the once disorganized Tran Town into a new powerful force...
On the square, Shen Yi said loudly: "I came here in response to the call of the Lord, but the task the Lord entrusted to me is not to let me cleanse the sins of this world, but to wake up your dead hearts! Sin is like darkness. , come back again. If you don’t have the confidence and energy to fight against evil, then even if I help you eliminate Dracula today, when new evil forces emerge in the future, you will still have to wait for help from the outside world. That’s not true. realistic……"
"I'm not here to be a savior! I'm just a guide! Citizens! Re-burn the blood that has gone cold in your body! Awaken your anger, ignite your energy, and resurrect your dead heart! When Deku When Count La and his men come, they will find us no longer a flock of lambs, but a flock of angry hounds! We will fight them to the death! We may die in battle, but the moment we die, We can say to our children that we are not ashamed of the conscience in our hearts! We are not ashamed of our responsibilities as parents! We are not ashamed of the heroic blood of the Tranians flowing in our bodies! We fight for justice and survival, and we do not hesitate to die ! At the moment of our death, we will be called by the Lord, instead of being a humble soul wandering in the world!"
"This is a war! In this war, everyone has two choices. Either shrink your head, linger on, and die cowardly and inaction, or puff up your chest, take up your arms, and die bravely! You guys Which one to choose?"
"Fight bravely and die!" All the townspeople uttered a strong call at the same time. At this moment, the passion in everyone's hearts had been ignited by Shen Yi.
They finally realized that hundreds of years of insensitivity cannot change their tragic fate, and only fighting with anger is their last and only way out.
"Take up weapons! Build defensive facilities!" Shen Yi shouted.
The townspeople jumped into action.
