The City Of The Dead
Chapter 9 Teo vs Crawler
Teo dodged the attack from the Crawler that leaped towards him. He rolled his body to the right and got back up, then five meters away from Crawler. While the three of them retreated even further about 20 meters back.
Teo took his cruising knife and held it in his right hand, while Clara's spear, he finished it with his left hand.
"Come on baby!" Shouted Teo so excitedly.
Crawler approached Teo by running very fast. He took a swing and attacked Crawler while running towards him.
As Crawler leapt towards him, Teo dropped his body on his back while pulling the spear towards Crawler's lower abdomen.
Teo immediately kept his distance back. Clara's spear was stuck in Crawler's stomach. He groaned in pain and kept trying to pull the spear out of his stomach.
"Sorry, man. But what the spear has been pierced, will continue to imprint for a very long time." Teo took another cruising knife and held it with his left hand.
"Do you think that Teo really enjoyed his duel against Crawler?" Ask Clara curiously.
"You think that too? I thought, yes," answered Agasa.
"What do you think of Alwi?" Ask Clara.
"Alwi doesn't know, but what Alwi saw, Kak Teo really enjoyed it," thought Alwi.
"Does he have a tendency to have mental illnesses like psycho?" Ask Clara.
"You mean he's like a psychopath?" Agasa.
"More or less," Clara answered glancing at Agasa.
Crawler managed to pluck the spear out of his stomach. He threw the spear away from him. Quickly, Crawler again ran towards Teo with black blood splattered all the way while he was running.
Teo prepared a swing, he stayed in place while waiting for Crawler to approach him.
"Come on!!!" Shouted Teo.
He evaded the Crawler by rolling to the front left over the zombie. Then he immediately turned around and ran towards Crawler who had not had time to turn around.
Teo immediately threw out two knives at once by jumping towards the Crawler and stabbing his skull.
One knife he pulled from Crawler's skull and he said in Crawler's neck until it almost broke.
The rotten black blood came out very profusely. The sound of screams constantly whimpering resounded loudly echoing. Teo pulled both knives away from the Crawler.
He held his breath repeatedly. Teo looks so breathless, but he smiles happy with his actions. Crawler continued to hold his neck until he bled out and started to move.
Teo immediately wiped Crawler's rotten black blood marks off his knife. He approached the three of them while walking leisurely.
"Sister, lookout!" Shouted Alwi.
The arrow from Agasa's Crossbow shot towards the zombie forehead which suddenly ran towards Teo.
WHOA!!!
JEREB!!!
Surprisingly, the zombie burned and became ashes like a vampire exposed to sunlight.
"What did you shoot?" Teo asked as he looked towards the zombies that were slowly burning and turning into ashes.
I was confused when I witnessed that incident. He, Clara and Alwi immediately approached the zombie.
"How is that possible?" Ask Agasa confused.
"Professor, did you fire a bullet covered in holy water?" Asked Clara dumbfounded.
"Professor, what might–," thought Alwi. his speech was truncated.
"What!?" Tanya Teo was curious.
"Professor Agasa's Crossbow Arrow is made of pure silver, isn't it?" Thought Alwi.
"Wait a minute. You mean that zombie was burned to ashes by Agasa's Crossbow bullet?" Tanya Teo was astonished.
"Maybe we should try it again to the body of Crawler who died there," Agasa said approaching Crawler's corpse.
As the bullet pierced through Crawler's skin, the zombie began to burn like a piece of wood, where a small fire slowly burned the body to ashes.
Witnessing that, the four of them were convinced by the efficacy of silver metal to burn the Unknown people, especially the zombies in the city.
"Professor, how many arrow bullets are you carrying?" Ask Teo.
"One place an arrow bullet about 50 rods. I'm carrying 5 bullet spots, which means there are about 250 arrow bullets. Coupled with the one still installed in the Crossbow, here there are still 48 more rods," explained Agasa.
"Don't just rely on Professor's Crossbow bullets, we also have to coat all our weapons with silver" Clara said.
"There was one more problem, as the silver arrow shot through The Unknown's body, it also shattered into ashes. This means that it takes the right mix by adding other metals as a mixture to increase resistance to the reactions produced by the body of The Unknown," explained Agasa.
He took the remains of Crawler's ashes for research. Using a small chemical tube, he acted like a forensic team in the CTF.
"First, where can we get a lot of silver? Then what kind of metal should be used as a suitable mixture?" Ask Alwi who is confused.
"Well, you're getting smarter as it turns out" Teo praised.
He stroked Alwi's hair while smiling.
"Gold! We need gold for the mixture, and plus some adhesive metals to mix. And high-grade steel of course," explained Clara.
"Why did you conclude that gold should be the mixture?" Ask Agasa.
"Gold includes precious metals that have the advantage of not rusting and are said to be perfect. I learned from a chemistry lecture in Germany" explains Clara.
"It turns out you're a college boy, I'm surprised" Agasa said.
"Okay, then we go on. If there is a building or a place for us to get gold and steel, we can stop by to take it" Teo said.
"Again" replied Clara, who still faithfully stroked Garfield's head.
"I'm sorry to interrupt, but you need a place to mix things up. Can you make all that?" Ask Teo.
He returned to drive the road.
"There's a University building ahead!" Shouted Alwi while pointing towards the building.
"Unbelievable, it seems like God is still on our side" Clara said.
"Unfortunately we do not know whether God is also on this parallel earth or not" Teo said in doubt.
"Do you doubt it or don't you want to believe it?" Ask Agasa.
"Many things that God snatches from me, forget it, that's just my reason for resisting Him." Teo guided them to the University building.
They entered the University building which had blue paint on the building. The modern building style is six to seven floors and has several additional buildings around the building area. Teo remained vigilant. He pulled Clara's spear forward.
"What should we look for first?" Ask Clara.
"gold, steel and machine workshops to upgrade weapons" Agasa said.
"That means we will stay here for a while" said Teo.
"When here there's a material for the reactor, maybe we don't have to go all the way to BATAN's lab." Agasa and others surrounded the building to find information on the location of the chemical laboratory and the machine faculty workshop.
"We need uranium to make the reactor, which we can probably get from this University building" Teo thought.
"You are right, we should also look for information about the existence of Uranium" Agasa said.
"To the knowledge of Alwi, in Indonesia there is rarely Uranium placed in one place as arbitrary as in the city area. Most likely they are in the NPP," thought Alwi.
"PLTNS? What'sthat?" Ask Agasa confused.
"Nuclear Power Plant. If not the closest one is in the Bandung area," replied Teo.
"That means we have to go there? How far is Bandung?" Ask Clara.
"It is very far when taken by foot," said Teo.
The four of them finally found the directorate building. Teo and the others immediately went inside.
