Chapter 224 Fox Town

Fox Town.

Located in the deep mountains and valleys on the west side of the Olympic Mountains, it is dominated by the logging industry, with abundant rainfall and heavy fog all year round. However, later the logging industry declined, the lumber mills closed down, the number of unemployed increased, business activities stagnated, some high schools closed, and some

Small town residents even began to move out.

The town is beautifully landscaped, surrounded by towering Douglas firs, hemlocks, spruces and rare red cedars.

It's just that due to the continuous gloom, there is no bright moon here all year round.

"Bumblebee has entered this so-called Fox Town. Have you sensed who is coming?" Murphy asked leisurely while driving the car with one hand and holding a cigarette in one hand.

The reason why Murphy and Mindy came to Fox Town now is because Bumblebee sensed that someone from the Autobots was coming to Earth, so he asked Murphy to let him find the team members.

Murphy asked the Red Queen to check the information and found that a meteorite had indeed fallen in a small town called Forks.

Of course, it was impossible for Murphy to refuse Bumblebee when it came to such a trivial matter as finding team members. After all, Bumblebee had made a lot of contributions to his happy pretense.

You can easily turn into a Lamborghini. Are you afraid?

And Murphy didn't want Bumblebee to go out alone, what if he ran away?

Where can he find such good labor?

So Murphy took Mindy to the so-called Fox Town.

The closer they got to the town of Fox, the more Murphy felt that something was wrong.

"Well, maybe it's an illusion." Murphy shook his head to get rid of the strange feeling in his mind.

"I know Arcee" Bumblebee said brokenly.

Arcee is a gentle and beautiful female Autobot warrior. She is kind-hearted and always thinks a lot about others. She also takes care of the new Autobots like a big sister.

She is astute and formidable in battle, passionate towards her friends but as cold as ice towards her enemies. Her superb skills and ruthlessness in battle can't help but shock people, even Hot Rod is no exception.

She is also a close combat expert and sharpshooter. In car form, she is equipped with many lethal weapons, such as shrapnel launchers and tire spikes. In robot form, although her strength is mediocre, her speed is very fast.

Arcee's intelligence, adaptability, and calmness in the face of fire make her an extremely valuable asset to the Autobots in their journey to realize their ideals. The Decepticons always underestimate Arcee's abilities, because in their eyes, she is just like them

The Decepticons always excluded women from Earth, whom they had always looked down upon, from their plans. It was this that became the most effective weapon Arcee could use.

"Arcee" Murphy's eyes lit up, "Is it Arcee alone, or are all three Arcee sisters here?"

Of course Murphy knew that Arcee, a pink motorcycle, was one of the few female characters among the hormone-filled Transformers.

Female Transformer, Murphy felt a bold idea arise in his heart

Moreover, the three sisters Arcee on the pink motorcycle, Claudia on the blue motorcycle and Alita on the purple motorcycle have always been inseparable. Are all three girls here?

Bumblebee""

I always feel like people on this earth know too much.

And Murphy doesn't care about the special things that sometimes show up in front of Mindy's eyes. It's okay to just blame it all on the silly dog ​​system.

"No one else but Arcee"

"Oh." Murphy flicked the ashes from his cigarette. It doesn't matter. It's good to have one.

He wanted to try what it felt like to ride Arcee today.

Isabella.

A seventeen-year-old female middle school student, her father is a policeman who focuses on work all day, and her mother is an impulsive and even a bit neurotic woman. They divorced when Bella was very young.

When her mother remarried, Bella came to the remote town of Forks, which was rainy all year round, to live with her father Charlie.

but

But because of this, Bella gained extraordinary experiences that ordinary people could not imagine.

Carrying her schoolbag, she came out of the house and looked back at her father's old house. There was a lot of sadness in her eyes.

Because in a few months, she might lose the chance to be with her parents forever.

By then she will become a vampire.

Love comes so fast, like a tornado, and she has no choice but to follow the vampire she loves and gain eternal life.

Eternal life or something is not important to her, what is important is that only in this way can she be with Edward forever.

In the early morning, the trees that were still misty and misty from last night's rain were gently swaying with their green leaves. Washed by the remaining raindrops, the branches were swaying up and down, showing a bit of desolation and desolation in the coldness.

Bella stepped on the rain-stained ground and came to her car.

Well, it was an old orange pickup truck. It was so powerful that it looked intimidating. The paint was faded, and the iron sheet was rusted and stained with copper stains in many places. Bella felt that it might be older than herself.

Still big.

This was the first gift her father gave her after she returned to Forks Town.

Obviously, her father doesn't understand a girl's heart at all. A car older than her

However, Officer Charlie has no choice. As the sheriff of a small town, he may look majestic on the surface and can maintain income despite droughts and floods, but his actual income is not enough to support him in buying a new car for his daughter.

So I can only feel wronged to her.

Fortunately, Bailey was quite sensible and didn't make a fuss and accepted it calmly. It was really embarrassing when people outside the school parking lot looked at her in surprise.

Bella got into the car, turned the key, and the car started. Bella breathed a sigh of relief.

The car was so old that when she used it several times in the past few days, it took a long time to start.

Fortunately this time, I didn’t have to waste so much time.

The car's engine started to roar.

Bella was about to drive when she seemed to have a premonition of something. She turned her head suddenly and looked to the right. There was an extra person.

Boyfriend, Edward Cullen.

Edward is fit, handsome and charming. He is actually a member of the Cullen family, a "vegetarian" vampire family.

Bella heard Edward talk about their vampire origins.

Legend has it that in ancient Europe, a plague broke out on the continent and people died one after another. Only a young man named Alexander Corvinus survived in the village.

There are three descendants of Alexander Corvinus. Unfortunately, one of the three was bitten by a bat infected with the virus, and the other was bitten by a wolf infected with the virus. Only one of them is intact as a human.

The form survived, but his two brothers mutated due to being infected with the virus. The one bitten by the bat became the ancestor of vampires, and the one bitten by the wolf became the ancestor of werewolves.

Vampires do not need to eat or sleep, but they need to continuously suck blood. When vampires feel hungry, they will have an extremely strong desire for blood.

Members of the Cullen family can restrain this. They generally only drink the blood of animals and do not attack humans, so they are called "vegetarians".

Unlike other vampires, Edward can also see what others are thinking, but he alone cannot see through Bella's thoughts. This is also the mystery of Bella that attracts him deeply.

"You scared me," Bella said angrily, patting her flat chest, "You're so elusive all day long, it's easy to scare others, okay?"

"Because we are not humans, but ghosts, vampires." Edward smiled slightly and said, "You have to try to get used to it, you will become like this in the future."

"Even if I become like you in the future, I won't suddenly appear around other people like you," Bella hummed.

"You'll know when the time comes." Edward said helplessly.

Bella drove a pickup truck and drove on the road.

The town of Fox is really not big, with only a few thousand people. It also contains a large number of Indian reservations, has a lack of roads, and is economically underdeveloped.

This used to be a forestry area, and the logging industry was developed. The economy was pretty good, and it was lively after all. But after the logging industry stopped, the whole town immediately became depressed.

If it weren't for meeting Edward, Bella would have wanted to live in big cities like New York and Los Angeles after graduating from high school.

"Bella, have you really thought about it?" Sitting in the car, Edward pursed his lips, hesitated for a long time, and finally said, "Choose to give up your father who is not good at talking but loves you, and give up your mother who is a little sloppy but loves you very much."

, and then made a blood-sucking monster that can only live in dark corners and loses its sense of taste, pain, etc."

Having been a vampire for more than a hundred years, Edward felt that the pain was far greater than the joy.

The pains of birth, old age, and illness that ordinary people can experience no longer need to be experienced, but vampires can no longer experience pleasures such as eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling.

Very painful

If it weren't for the Cullens who were always by his side, Edward would have committed suicide long ago.

He didn't really want Bella to become like this, he was also afraid that Bella would regret becoming a vampire and then resent him.

And if Bella doesn't become a vampire, then the two of them can't be together forever, which is also a great pain in Edward's heart.

When the two painful contradictions became entangled, Edward's idea of ​​​​not wanting Bella to become a vampire took over.

but

Everything must be decided by Bella herself. If Bella insists on doing so, no one can change Bella's decision.

"Edward, I am 17 years old and can choose my own life." Bella took a deep breath and said, "I believe that if my father and mother knew the truth, they would definitely support me."

"Okay." Edward sighed and said no more.

The two of them walked towards the school.

A Chevrolet Camaro drives on the road in the small town of Forks.

When going out like this, driving a Lamborghini would be too arrogant. It is better to drive a Chevrolet and be more low-key.

According to the signs communicated by Bumblebee and Arcee, they kept approaching a location.

"According to the display, the final location is the parking lot of Fox Town High School." The Red Queen released a projection, showing a pink motorcycle on it.

"Correct Arcee is there" said Bumblebee.

"Got it." Murphy flicked the ashes from his cigarette and scanned the vast tracts of land.

Indian reservation

Pretty big.

Fox Town is one of the small towns where Indians gather. A large piece of land is privately owned by Indians. It is common for a family to control hundreds of acres of land. However, due to the extremely backward economy, these lands are not very valuable.

"The Indians are a bit interesting." Murphy chuckled. There are quite a lot of extraordinary atmospheres in this town, especially the Indian reservation and another place.

In his previous life, Murphy had heard some information about the Indians. It seemed that what caused the greatest death to the Indians was not the massacre by Europeans, but disease.

The disease was mainly smallpox.

Smallpox is a terrible disease even in Asia and Europe. Once contracted, the mortality rate is very high.

Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty died of smallpox.

When smallpox entered the American continent with white people, it was a disease that the Indians had never had, and they did not have any antibodies in their bodies.

As a result, smallpox raged across the American continent like the god of death, killing entire tribes of Indians in large swaths.

In a short period of time, almost 90% of the population was lost.

A missionary at the time once described it this way: "In some places, every house was wiped out, and there were so many dead that it was impossible to bury them all."

But the Indians also retaliated against the white Europeans by passing on syphilis, a disease that they could not resist.

Almost everyone in the Indians has syphilis, but to them, syphilis is just like a fever and a cold. It is not a big harm. However, when syphilis crossed the ocean and reached Europe,

At the time of the Great Geographical Discovery, white Europeans noticed that syphilis was extremely invasive. It ate away a man's life bit by bit, and then ate his face, making all the pleasure-seeking prostitutes look disgusting.

It was unbearable to see, and it caused pain all over the body. The pain was so severe that people could not get out of bed and could not find a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.

Therefore, syphilis became the number one killer in Europe during the Renaissance. It was described as "endless rot" in Shakespeare's writings. Before the emergence of AIDS, it could be said to be the "number one killer" in the field of venereal diseases. Many political circles and literary and artistic celebrities seemed to be unable to

Escape from its vicious hands.

Schubert died six years after contracting syphilis at the age of 31. Schubert was born in a Catholic family in Vienna and studied violin and piano. He had a sweet singing voice and entered the "Royal Theological Seminary" to study. Schubert was infected when he was about 25 years old.

Got syphilis.

Maupassant's syphilis came openly, and he never denied it. At the age of 20, the bohemian Maupassant was infected by a rowing companion, and he did not know it at the time. Later, Maupassant began to lose all his body hair, and the doctor told his family that it was syphilis.

There are also many people such as Nietzsche, Beethoven, Mozart, Flaubert, His Excellency the Führer, etc.

Of course, with today's advanced medical technology, syphilis is no longer an incurable disease.

But that's it, many white people also hate Indians very much, after all

Therefore, very few white people marry Indians.
