Durin's Diary

Chapter 205 To the Moon

When they reached the top floor, Alyssa was already there. After hearing Anta say that Dulin needed her, the girl came over resolutely.

Durin really needed her, because there was a piece of music that required her to collaborate with the choir of the Twin Mothers stationed in the Temple of Eternal Fortress to provide the music for Durin's short film.

As for music?

Am I Real.

Daju chose it for Du Lin, and Du Lin was very impressed after hearing it - because it was so suitable for the whole short film.

The song is 2 minutes and 34 seconds long. The music is relatively soothing at the beginning, and gradually becomes passionate with the drum beats and vocals until the final chorus.

For this purpose, Du Lin also needs to adjust a completely new order of pictures.

But there is no need to rush for this, as Du Lin still has several locations to collect information.

The first thing was the town bonfire dance in the afternoon. At three o'clock, Du Lin took the girls on the old Miski and headed towards the town where they had already prepared for the field trip.

Alyssa looked around on the pack animal's back, full of curiosity.

The Great Wasteland was too strange for the Savoys, and Alyssa had never been to the Great Wasteland - after all, it was really a chaotic place with green-skinned orcs, human pirates, and even the Sun Banshees could be seen with one's own eyes next to the deserted village beside the road.

When this ghost came out, Daju's voice changed.

Is this a fucking ghost? My CPU is really going to burn out. This energy field is so fucking evil!
The girls were also scared - after all, the ultimate ghost, the Sun Banshee, suddenly appeared in the wasteland beside the road, and opened its red lips to the people on the pack animals. The rotten head, empty eye sockets and half of the toothless mandible, and the tongue really stretched out more than one meter.

Alyssa screamed the loudest, Anta and Lina hugged each other, and only Melinda was busy loading the double-barreled shotgun with bullets specifically for ghosts and spirits.

Then she was directly blown away by Durin's divine instruction - Durin stretched out his hand, and the banshee who was hit by the ray turned into ashes.

The girls stopped screaming halfway when they found that the sun banshee had died without a sound, and the ground was covered with ashes.

Finally, Melinda, who was very professional in dealing with this kind of thing, got off the pack animal. She put on gloves and pulled a stone from the ashes. She put it in a black bag and said, "I'm rich."

"What do you mean?" Du Lin reached out and pulled the little rabbit onto the pack animal's back.

"This gem is a valuable item many alchemists need and can fetch a considerable sum. Many people died in this area in recent years, but the Church should have cleansed it. How could the Sun Banshee still be here?" Melinda said, drawing a cross on the map. "Clearly, there's something wrong here. I need to mark it and tell the Church when I get back."

Du Lin was happy with Melinda's attentiveness.

The three girls began to chatter. They all expressed awe at the appearance of the Sun Banshee, but after listening to Melinda's story, they expressed a certain sympathy for the reasons for the formation of the Sun Banshee.

When the pack animals arrived at the town, the townspeople were building a bonfire.

A pastor from the Church of the Twin Mothers was present, and when Dulin said he was looking for a deacon, he pointed to the center of the town.

After finding an empty spot to park the pack animal and paying the fee, Dulin brought the girls to the square and met the deacon who was discussing something with someone.

Du Lin walked over and took the bag and map handed to him by Melinda.

The deacon greeted Du Lin with a smile, but the middle-aged man who was chatting with him seemed a little unhappy.

However, when they saw Du Lin open the bag of stones, they immediately exclaimed.

"We encountered a Sun Banshee here. I used divine instruction to kill it. This is proof of my slaying." "Only a Sun Banshee can drop this. Damn it, I didn't expect it to be so close to the fortress and town. I'll send a carrier pigeon to notify the Temple." The deacon was a grassland elf. He wrote a report and had his subordinates release the carrier pigeon. Then he looked at the location on the map. "This place was dealt with half a year ago. There were only a few zombie remains then. How could a Sun Banshee appear six months later?"

"Yes, the Sun Banshees will be trapped where they died, but that deserted village hasn't been put on the list for revival yet, and no one has lived there recently, so how could there be Sun Banshees?" The man muttered, and then seemed to think of something. He stretched out his hand: "Hello, child, I'm the mayor here."

"Durin Elsh is currently producing a short film for the Twin Mothers." He then turned to the deacon and said, "Sir, is there a possibility that a missing girl fell into the well in the deserted village, or was buried nearby?"

"It's possible, but has anyone in the nearby villages or towns recently reported missing family members or children?" asked the deacon.

The mayor shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it. At least, we haven't heard of any family members or children missing in our town." The mayor and the deacon couldn't come to a conclusion. Considering that it was getting dark, they could only temporarily dispatch griffins to drop warning signs on the roads near the deserted street.

They also thanked Durin for his warning, and even the mayor was amazed when he heard that Durin used divine instructions to purify the pitiful sun banshee.

There is no reluctance at all as before.

Du Lin didn't care - it was a great honor for the mayor of the small town to be able to speak in front of the deacon, so he was unhappy when Du Lin showed up.

But after he understood Du Lin's identity, he changed his facial expression in time, which was enough to make Du Lin let him go.

Thinking of this, Du Lin and the girls came to the campfire.

After the experience of encountering the Sun Banshees in the afternoon, the girls had just brought guns - they and Du Lin both had proof of working for the Twin Mothers, so they could naturally carry guns legally.

Although they had no mood to dance, the townspeople were still very happy. The young people among them, who had just had a good harvest, were starting to dance around the bonfire.

Du Lin was sketching with a drawing board, while Daju was responsible for recording the video.

Melinda sat down next to Du Lin, holding a carrot in her hand. "Mr. Du Lin, you really like the hustle and bustle, don't you?"

"Yes, because it makes me feel like this is a real world, and I'm not a lonely soul living in a dream." Du Lin said this and glanced at Melinda: "What about you? Why didn't you bring your sister here today?"

"She can't come." The little rabbit sighed. "She's married and is no longer a member of the Connery family. Her husband doesn't like her appearing in short films. She won't come back."

Having said that, Melinda looked at Du Lin and said, "Mr. Du Lin, what do you think?"

"I won't force you to do anything you don't like, but I can understand that gentleman's conservatism and persistence, just like I would refuse and stop you from shooting those inexplicable short films." Du Lin said with a smile.

"Mr. Du Lin, what you shot wasn't some weird short film," Melinda said angrily. "He just doesn't understand your greatness, Mr. Du Lin."

"It was precisely because that gentleman didn't know that he stopped his wife." At this point, Du Lin looked at Melinda and said, "I think we have a pretty good perspective right now."

After Du Lin finished speaking, he changed a new piece of paper.

Melinda watched Du Lin's pen leaping on the paper. Soon, a young boy and a girl appeared on the paper. He and she were sitting on a bench. In front of them, there were young people dancing around a bonfire, and in the black sky, there was a round moon.

Melinda's eyes sparkled as she recognized herself in the painting.

And Du Lin's fingers were beating rhythm on his legs.

He was thinking about the song "For River".

Piano version.
