The seagulls that could be seen even in the coldest years disappeared from the sky above Belfast, and deathly silence enveloped the entire ruins.
Anna flew along the coastline, avoiding the unknown port of Rodeste, and returning home to the warm and cozy clifftop.
Back at the refuge, Lu Li took out the notebook and pen from the drawer, turned to a blank page, took off the cap of the pen and wrote the content. Without looking back, he said: "Call Adang Fuya, if Jimmy can write, bring him too."
.”
"My brother is illiterate." Remi said helplessly, curious about what Lu Li was doing.
"Can you copy?"
"Well... it should be okay. I'll call him." Remi suppressed her confusion and left the cave to call someone.
"You told him there was a way to deal with them...what are you going to do?" Anna, who was left behind, asked.
Lu Li didn't answer. She tilted her head slightly and looked over Lu Li's shoulder as he wrote paragraphs on the paper, vaguely guessing his plan.
"Get me four pens and notes." Lu Li said.
A few days ago, Anna brought back a lot of supplies, including pens. Three boxes of fifteen brand-new pens in total are enough to last a long time.
Anna took the pen and continued to stand beside Lu Li. Soon, Remi came back with her brother and Adang Fuya.
After writing the entire page, Lu Li tore up the page of notes, pushed it to the corner of the desk, and put it together with the piled notebooks and pens.
"Please copy the content into dozens of copies."
Remy walked into the refuge and picked up the torn paper.
【We are believers in Him】
[In His name, in the city of old glory, Belfast declares:]
[My Lord will be called upon to come here soon, and this place belongs to Him]
[Evil spirits, evil spirits, weird ones, evil gods, and those with malicious intentions will be brutally sacrificed and expelled]
[But we also welcome new brothers and sisters to join]
[If you want to become a loyal servant of my lord, come to the southern oak forest]
[Follow the traces of distortion and distortion to find our nest]
[My Lord awaits your arrival]
After reading it once, Remi read the contents on the paper to Jimmy and Adangfuya.
"You want to drive away the weirdness in Belfast and deal with the heretics?" Remy put down the paper. "It's a very smart way, so you said at the time that you couldn't guarantee the safety of old Miklos."
"But how do you ensure that the weirdos will be encouraged by the content here and obediently go find trouble with the heretics?"
"A group of rude thieves plan to steal the property next door." Lu Li pushed the ink bottle next to the pile of notes and pens. "The person involved will be more concerned than us neighbors."
They in Elm Forest were just worried that the infidels occupying Belfast would spread their tentacles around, and the weirdos in Belfast would obviously suffer disaster.
Weirdness is never the same thing.
"So what happened?" Jimmy felt like he couldn't understand what they were saying, and the content on the paper also made him confused.
"I'll tell you while I'm copying." Remi picked up the notebook pen, took an oil lamp, and came to the desk next to the bookshelf in the cave.
Lu Li lowered his head and prepared to continue copying, but Anna gently covered the back of his hand: "Leave it to us to write, you don't want to leave any traces."
"Anna is right." Remi's voice came from outside the refuge. "Some weird things have the power of curses, and curses have some particularly weird abilities. For example, they may be traced back to the original source, making the writer cursed."
Jimmy, who was imitating Remi's pen-holding movements, paused: "Curse?"
"We are weird and not afraid of curses." Remi disliked her brother's timidity.
This is too absolute. Monsters will also be cursed, but they are more resistant than humans and can resist vicious and terrifying curses.
Just like the disparity in power between adults and children.
Click.
Lu Li capped his pen and raised his hand to close the notebook.
The moment the pages of the book fell, a piece of paper caught in it fell out.
Written on it were the reminders Lu Li had given himself when he first came here, such as "understand where you are", "accumulate enough shillings" and "find a new place to live".
Most of the reminders have been crossed out, leaving only a single line.
【Find a way to get out of here】
Lu Li put it back into his notebook and put it in the drawer.
The above content no longer makes sense.
Lu Li gave up his desk position to Anna, and she and Remi and others in the cave outside were like students, immersed in copying.
More than an hour later, there were already more than thirty pieces of transcription paper torn out.
Jimmy had to stop rubbing his sore wrist, and there was a patch of ink on the side of his little finger. His body had been weak for too long, and he would feel strenuous with any strenuous or long-term activities.
Anna and the others wrote for another half an hour and barely managed to make up fifty transcribed leaflets.
It's ten o'clock in the morning, plenty of time for them to post them all over Belfast for the literate weirdos to see.
This kind of thing can only be done by Anna. Adang Fuya is just a ghost, Remi is not good at hiding herself, and after posting the flyers, she still needs to lurk to observe the effect of the flyers - whether there is anyone weird who notices the flyers, go to the oak forest.
Carrying flyers that will cause strange cannibalism, Anna leaves the Elm Forest.
The number of flyers was limited, and Anna did not waste them in the neighborhoods around Elm Forest or other neighborhoods. She sneaked to the southern ruins of Belfast, on the Oak Forest side, and posted the flyers in as conspicuous places as possible.
For example, at an intersection or on a carriage blocking the street.
But fifty copies were still too few, and Anna only posted five or six blocks before she used up all the flyers.
Anna retreated to the oak block leading to the oak forest, hid on the second floor of a residential building, and observed silently.
She waited for an hour, but nothing happened. The streets below were silent and empty.
Is it not strange to find these flyers, or are the flyers useless...?
After waiting for another ten minutes, Anna left here and went straight back to the top of the cliff to tell Lu Li the situation: "It may be useful, but the leaflets are too few, not even one-twentieth of those in Belfast."
Apparently there was not enough time for them to copy hundreds of leaflets.
Lu Li thought for a moment, took out the map of Belfast, unfolded it, searched for and pressed his finger on one of the places: [Belfast Today News]
If the newspaper office had not been burned down, there should be relatively complete machinery and a large amount of blank newspapers and ink.
Those that meet publicity needs.
Based on the technological level of this world, newspaper printing technology should be somewhere between letterpress printing presses or early offset printing presses.
No matter which one, I hope that the machine will not use electricity, or can print by hand.
However, after Lu Li asked to go to the newspaper office, Anna had a dispute with him.
Anna could allow Lu Li to go to the Ghost Prison because Remi was following her and because the road was relatively safe.
Belfast is different, there are weird things everywhere. Under the ruins, in the houses, and even in the sewers, and the 12 bits of human nature are their most important food every second.
Lu Li's answer was simple: "Can you use a printing machine?"
