disaster strikes

Chapter 574 Blood Moon Era

Tom is an ordinary peddler on Dunkel Street in St. Granville.

He learned the craft from his father. As a cheese seller, Tom has become accustomed to the life of a street vendor who works every day at sunrise and returns at sunset.

This rickshaw full of cheese is his livelihood tool.

As the sun gradually sets.

After checking the time, Tom smiled and said hello to the vendor friend next to him, then pulled the four-wheeler and walked towards his home in the suburbs.

While on the road, he did not forget to buy a small jar of honey as a birthday gift for his little daughter.

Although he is only 27 years old this year, he is already the father of four children. The youngest daughter just turns three years old today, and the oldest child is already 11 years old. He is able to milk cows proficiently. an unborn child.

Move forward steadily.

unconsciously.

By the time Tom got home there was nothing but the last rays of the setting sun in the sky.

Today's Huoshaoyun seems to be extraordinarily beautiful, revealing a coquettish scarlet, just like the moment before the midnight rose withers.

"father!"

"dad……"

The children happily surrounded him, acting like a baby around him.

Tom smiled happily.

While dealing with the children, he handed over the money he earned today to his wife. In ordinary life, the two only made eye contact, but they were also full of love.

"How's business today?"

"There's about one-tenth left. Today is Hua'er's birthday, so I came back early."

soon.

Everyone entered the house, the wife had already prepared meals in advance, and the family gathered around a table that was not a sumptuous dinner, praying devoutly.

"thank God……"

When the children opened their eyes, Tom smiled mysteriously.

He took out a small jar of honey from his clothes and gently placed it on the table.

"Wow!"

The children cried out in surprise, and the joyful laughter spread throughout the room. Tom looked at this scene and felt his heart was about to melt. He was so happy.

Amidst the happy laughter of the children, the family enjoyed today's dinner happily.

"Tom, Tom?"

The voice of the neighbor Bob outside the window made Tom frown slightly.

But the other party kept urging him, so he got up reluctantly and walked out of the room.

Only then did he realize that all the neighbors in the farm had already walked out of the room, standing together in twos and threes, pointing to the sky and discussing something.

Tom couldn't help looking at the rising blood-red moon in the sky.

Some seemed frightened and fell to their knees to pray.

Bob said in a low voice: "Tom, this is not a good sign. I feel terrified. The Day of Extinction described in "Bright Festival" is a bloody moon. Should we do something?"

"I do not know."

Tom also didn't like this feeling very much, he felt a little creepy.

Bathed in the blood-colored moonlight, he felt that his skin was about to get goosebumps in that terrified atmosphere.

Moo!
The cows in the cowshed in the distance also began to make uneasy calls.

"dad?"

The children ran out of the room and also saw the bloody moon in the sky, showing a look of confusion.

"Take them back quickly!"

Distraught, Tom hurriedly motioned for his wife to take the children back to the room.

The wife nodded, and was about to take the four children back to the room. The eldest son, who was usually the most active and active, suddenly pointed into the distance and made a panicked sound.

"Look, what is that!"

Hearing this, Tom looked in the direction the eldest son pointed.

The pupils of his eyes suddenly shrank to the size of a pinprick, and his face instantly turned pale.

On the earth shrouded in the bloody moonlight, some strange phantoms gradually appeared in the midair. Their shapes were extremely hideous and ugly, like demons who had been sleeping for hundreds of millions of years and gradually awakened, gradually opening their bloody eyes.

They look very large.

But the miraculous thing is that they only have the part in the air, and they can faintly see indistinct shapes, and the part close to the ground has nothing.

Followed by.

Some of the monsters who opened their blood-colored eyes slowly raised their heads and looked at the blood-colored moon in the sky.

They looked up to the sky and howled, but no sound could be heard.

"what……"

The terrified screams of the farmers seemed to attract the attention of some monsters.

Some of these monsters stretched out their big hands with sharp nails, and grabbed the restless cows, but when their ferocious giant claws fell on the ground, they were affected by unknown influences, and turned from corpses into monsters again. nothingness.

A strange scene appeared.

The cows were not affected in the slightest.

Seeing this, the monster seemed to be angry. He opened his bloody mouth, and a dark red demon light gushed out, covering most of the farm.

The terrified women came to their senses and planned to go back to the room.

However, as the monster's mouth sucked fiercely, the bodies of these women suddenly froze in place, and then fell straight down. After their souls were forcibly taken away, they floated into the bloody mouth of the sky.

"Come into the room quickly, don't stand under the light of the blood moon."

Tom, with a dull expression, was awakened by an elf that looked like a dragonfly. Fear made his breathing heavy, and his body was covered in cold sweat.

The elf looked into the distance with an anxious expression on his face.

"These blood moon creatures have just woken up. They are very hungry. If they enter the room and avoid the light of the blood moon, they will be able to effectively avoid being discovered by the blood moon creatures."

After Tom reacted, he hurried back to the room.

……

the other side.

Chen Mo and Yanying from St. Granville, like tourists, are sitting by the window in their house, looking at the bloody full moon in the sky.

The bustling and bustling streets in the past have completely turned into chaos.

There were sounds of panic, wailing, and screams everywhere.

Some blood moon monsters similar to gnomes, mud monsters, rotten toads, and eye worms are wreaking havoc on the streets.

However, their strength is generally not strong, only the evaluation of ordinary creatures.

further afield.

In the direction of the high tower of the Gran Academy of Natural Sciences, there were bursts of thunderous explosions and shocks.

Two huge half-length creatures faintly appeared in midair.

One of them is like a unicorn, with a huge sharp horn on the top of its head, and hideous spikes all over its body, trying to get close to the tower, but is forced back again and again by the defense facilities on the tower.

The other is like a three-headed snake. The three heads are sometimes visible and sometimes hidden in nothingness. They are in a state of disappearing and appearing. They launch long-range attacks in the direction of the tower, but are blocked by the tower's energy shield.

The upper half of these two huge creatures seem to appear high in the sky.

The lower body is in a state of complete nothingness, which looks very strange.

After Chen Mo took a deep breath, he looked at Nianying.

"These two blood moon creatures should already have the strength level of a disaster lord."

"Ah."

Ensign sighed and said, "You will spend the next three years in this kind of world, so you must be careful."

Chen Mo smiled softly.

"Don't worry, if you want to go back, I can go back at any time, but I have already planned the mission goals for this time, and these two little guys are not independent yet, I want to take care of them here."

Bed.

Maddy and Linda leaned together tremblingly, looking at the horrible scene outside the window in disbelief.

This is simply a scene from a nightmare.

"do not worry."

Chen Mo said to the two: "This is the normal natural law of this world. People will soon adapt to everything in the blood moon era. Although the process will be accompanied by some deaths, this is a necessary price. People have joys and sorrows, and the moon has clouds." You have to learn to adapt to the ups and downs.”

After turning on the phonograph, Ningying came to Linda's side and sat next to her.

Nelina's voice came from the gramophone.

"As long as we don't go outside the house when the blood moon rises, those advanced blood moon creatures can't find us, just like we can't see the ants in the ant nest, and as long as we go to sleep, even those The low-level blood moon creatures that occasionally break into the room will also lose our track, you have to learn to survive in the following dark and turbulent era, and learn to overcome fear."

Say it.

Ningying took out a bottle of sleeping potion.

The smell of mother made Linda relax a little.

"Aunt Ningying, are you really leaving?"

Ningying embraced Linda in his arms and kissed her forehead.

"Tomorrow night, we are one. When you miss me, you can ask Uncle Traveler, and then you can call me over. Have you forgotten what I taught you?"

"No."

time flies.

Unknowingly, it was late at night, and the streets gradually became quiet after experiencing the initial chaos.

Chen Mo could occasionally see some figures running quickly.

The crying of the baby came from the neighbor's house, but it quickly quieted down again. Obviously, the bewildered adults were afraid of being exposed, so they covered the baby's mouth or hid him.

But Chen Mo is not worried about this.

As long as you don't take the initiative to expose yourself to the light of the blood moon, it is only a small probability that those low-level blood moon monsters break into the room.

And even if there are monsters that break into the room, they are only the weakest monsters.

They are the only ones who can operate at the edge of the surface world and the blood moon world, and the probability is very low, almost equivalent to the weeds on the grassland, worrying about being trampled by wild horses.

The connection between the representational world and the blood moon world is not the integration that ordinary people understand.

Although the high-altitude areas of the two sides have been basically connected together and become a unified existence, on the ground, they are just entangled. Only the area shrouded in the light of the blood moon will form the "I am in you and I am in you" formation. Your fringe area, but only blood moon monsters below the second level can move.

But unless they are really hungry, they will not come to this dirty and crowded area.

As for those shadow areas that are not shrouded by the light of the blood moon, only the weakest blood moon monsters can barely reach them.

And magically.

As long as human beings living in the appearance world hide and sleep in places not illuminated by the light of the blood moon, they will be in an absolutely safe state, and they will not be able to be spied on by blood moon creatures. See elves like.

This is probably the so-called balance.
