Alien Hotel.

Chapter 324: The hotel still has a strong population

There was one more person in the hotel - a steel doll named "Luna".

The amazing thing is that the population of No. 66 Wutong Road did not increase much after the new members joined.

However, Yu Sheng was quite open-minded about this matter. Considering that the first "one of our own" he met in this world was made of clay and wire, he had never set high standards for the members of his organization. Basically, they just had to be "alive, look like a human, and be able to speak human language." Luna subtly met all three of these requirements...

After that, the first thing Yu Sheng asked Luna to do was to familiarize herself with the name of every member of the hostel.

"Yu-Sheng." She first learned to call Yu Sheng's name with some effort.

Then, she pointed at the fox girl and stuttered out Hu Li's name: "Hu, Hu...Li."

Finally, there was the little doll standing on the coffee table with its arms folded and a proud look on its face. Luna pointed at the little doll and uttered a stuttering and vague sound from within her body: "Ai, Ai, Ai, Ai, Ai..."

Hu Li couldn't help laughing out loud halfway through listening.

Irene stared at the fox girl and was about to ask her what she was laughing at when Luna finally said her name: "Irene."

The little doll still stared with her eyes wide open, always feeling that something was wrong, but after thinking for a while and failing to figure it out, she stopped thinking about it.

The next step is to help the new member get familiar with the home environment and arrange accommodation for her.

Yu Sheng took "Luna" for a walk around No. 66 Wutong Road, and after returning to the living room, he said to her: "This is roughly the situation. There is currently an empty room on the first floor of this house, and the conditions are pretty good. Although there is also an empty room on the second floor, it is a bit strange and is not recommended for living. The other rooms are the basement and attic... Although they are clean and spacious, I think you should still live on the first floor. In addition, your usual, um..."

He stopped talking, looked at the iron doll in front of him with a subtle expression, and began to think wildly.

A two-meter-tall iron doll... What daily necessities do you need? How does she take a bath? Does she need new clothes? What are her requirements for bedding? Judging from her appearance, she probably doesn't need to eat... So what does she need? WD-40?

Seeing Yu Sheng suddenly standing there motionless, Luna tilted her head in confusion, looked at the fox girl beside her, and after a long pause, she blurted out a few words: "Yu Sheng, not moving, thinking?"

"My benefactor often does this," Hu Li was used to it. He was holding a half-eaten chicken leg in his hand and chewing it while saying, "He should be thinking about what you need to arrange for living here. When I first moved in, my benefactor often took the trouble to take care of me."

Luna understood, and after a moment, she suddenly reached out and touched Yu Sheng's shoulder.

"Holy coffin." She said vaguely.

Yu Sheng didn’t hear it clearly the first time: “Ah, what?”

"The Holy Coffin," Luna repeated, this time more clearly than before.

It took Yu Sheng a few seconds to realize what the other party meant: "You mean, you want to sleep in that iron coffin?!"

Luna nodded slowly, and then, probably worried that the other party might misunderstand her, she added two more words with great effort: "Must."

Yu Sheng blinked, and this time he completely understood.

"You mean, you have to rest in that 'holy coffin'? So there's no need to arrange a room for you here?"

"Ah."

Yu Sheng scratched his hair. This situation was different from what he had originally planned.

But he thought carefully about Hu Li who could shoot out his tail and Irene who could divide the troops into four groups by himself, and suddenly he felt relieved.

The Junction was a place with many talented people, so it was normal for the members of his inn to have some problems. Compared to Snow White's seven thunder titans, his new members just needed to sleep in a coffin, which was nothing to be surprised about - he was also planning to make a few small boxes for Irene...

"Okay then, you can continue to sleep in the 'Holy Coffin Room'. Anyway, the ship is now part of the hotel, and the cultists on the ship have been cleared out," Yu Sheng touched his chin and said to Luna, "But this will be quite inconvenient for you... I'll open another door in the basement and it will lead directly to the Holy Coffin Room."

The matter was thus settled.

And at this moment, Yu Sheng suddenly thought of another thing.

He looked up and down at the iron doll in front of him.

"Luna, do you still remember...what happened in that 'wilderness'?"

Luna didn't respond for a moment, but a low humming sound came from her body.

Irene was surprised when she heard the noise: "Ah? It crashed again?!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Luna turned her eyes to the direction of the doll, then raised her hand and made a sword-raising gesture in the air, as if she was using this method to call up an unreliable memory fragment, and then nodded: "Remember." Irene stood there in a daze for a while, and finally flew into a rage after she reacted: "I have tolerated you for a long time, C-shaped buckle! I think you did it on purpose!"

The next second, she leaped up and rushed towards the iron doll in front of her in a rage, and her tortoise fist left an afterimage in the air - but she was easily caught in the air by the latter. Even if she tried her best, she couldn't even reach the other person's elbow even if she stretched her arms straight...

But Irene's advantage was that she had more people than others. Once one of them was grabbed, the other three would pounce on her right away. They had no martial ethics at all and used sneak attacks and sieges to kill Luna on the spot. It was a pity that no matter how hard they kicked and kicked, they couldn't break her defense.

Luna didn't even resist. After she found that she didn't feel anything with these short guys hanging on her body, she simply put down Irene in her hand. Then she thought seriously for a few seconds and added to her son, "I thought, you're dreaming."

Yu Sheng had originally wanted to control the situation and prevent Irene from making too much noise, but after seeing this situation, he was too lazy to care. At the same time, after hearing Luna's answer, he thought for a moment: "You mean, from your perspective, you thought you were dreaming?"

Luna nodded slightly.

Yu Sheng frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.

Luna hesitated for a moment before breaking the silence and asked curiously, "So, it's not a dream? What is it?"

It took her several tries before she could pronounce the words clearly.

"A shelter," answered Hu Li, who was standing next to her. She had finally finished eating the chicken leg and took out a bun from her tail. "A shelter for the soul. I've been there before!"

"There are two situations for people who come into contact with my blood," Yu Shengze further explained, "For enemies, I will erode and control them, and for my own people, I will open the door for them and grant them various permissions and protection.

"In the final battle in the Holy Coffin Chamber, in order to repair your body, I performed the final step of 'blood giving' on you in my own way. While repairing your body, I also gave you permission to enter the Sanctuary Wasteland.

"But your condition was very bad at that time. I suspect that this process may have even exacerbated the tearing of your mind. As a result, part of your mind entered the Sanctuary Wasteland in a daze, while the other part remained in the Holy Coffin..."

Luna listened very carefully, and seemed to be trying hard to think and understand what Yu Sheng said. She also remembered her several encounters and battles with the other party, and the feeling when her body was first stained with blood: panic, anger, and even fear.

At that time, the cognitive mask was still in effect. Her perception and understanding of the entire world were shrouded in a layer of lies. She felt the indescribable horror of the pollution seeping through her limbs and piercing into her soul inch by inch. She remembered that she even cut off one of her arms at that time. However, the corrosive force continued to spread in her body, and even spread to the knights who were connected with her mind...

It was not until the moment the veil was broken, until she was pushed into the holy coffin by Yu Sheng and the coffin lid closed, that she felt the peace and tranquility behind the erosion.

And after that, she had a dream.

She dreamed that she was standing in an endless wilderness, with a magnificent torrent of souls surging in the vast sky, a towering mountain standing at the end of the wilderness and the torrent, and a heavy and solemn door standing on the mountain.

She also dreamed of a grand bonfire, which was fueled by suffering and emitted a fire called "hope". It burned brightly in the wilderness. She and her knights guarded the bonfire and discussed and planned their future journey in the wilderness.

She also dreamed of a great voice that could not be described in words talking to her. The voice was gentle and friendly...it seemed to be Yu Sheng? But she was in a daze at the time and could not hear clearly.

Oh, and she also dreamed of a little dwarf who was jumping up and down next to the great voice as it spoke.

Very noisy.

So she patted the other person at that time - just a light pat, and the dwarf was patted directly to the ground.

Luna suddenly woke up from her memories and saw four dwarfs hanging on her arms, shoulders, neck and thighs.

Three are dead and one is alive, but it seems like all of them are dead, or all of them are alive.

What a strange life form, it doesn't seem like a normal creature that should appear in this world.

But it doesn’t matter, don’t think too much, the dwarf is a friend and the new family in the “hostel”.

Luna laughed, took Irene off her arm, held it in front of her eyes, looked at the other person very seriously, and then tried to speak clearly: "Don't fight, fighting is not good."

Irene was suddenly stunned. She was lifted up in the air by the "artificial saint" in front of her. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she suddenly felt that the other person's always smiling, empty and cold pale face seemed to have some warmth. Even the smile was changing slightly, becoming a real and vivid expression.

"Uh," Irene scratched her hair as the other three bodies climbed down from Luna. "It was such a satisfying battle - since you admit defeat, we won't fight anymore. Well, I'll let you go, C-shaped buckle!"

Luna nodded slowly and placed Erin carefully on the ground.

"Okay, shorty."

Two seconds later, the little puppet's angry roar was heard from No. 66 Wutong Road:

“…C-shaped buckle! You did this on purpose!!”
