Chapter 249 Savior

The carriage outside the window went away, and the heavy hoofs gradually faded until it disappeared into the cold and silent night, and Arthur's thoughts were also leaving with him. He woke up from the memory, lowered his head, and couldn't help but find the black and white one. The photo has been crushed by him.

Anthony brought a very important message that night, Lorenzo was not stable, but thinking of all the behaviors in the previous battle, Arthur couldn't think of how evil he would be, or the demon hunter didn't realize it at all. Own madness.

  Of course, Arthur would not believe Anthony so easily. After all, this is Anthony’s side of the word. Even if there are those documents, it may be forged. Arthur would not directly doubt Lorenzo in this way.

  Although Arthur was annoyed by this **** demon hunter, he was still a comrade-in-arms who was born and died. Trust is the cornerstone of building a group. After bidding farewell to Anthony, Arthur did not fully believe what he said.

  The weirdness of things like monsters, Arthur fully understands that the comrades who have just fought side by side with you may fall in the erosion of whispering in the next second. They open their teeth and claws, turn back in an instant, and swing their swords at you.

  Arthur trusted Lorenzo, but in the same way, Anthony’s words undoubtedly brought a rift in the solid trust. As a leader, Arthur could not allow this kind of risk.

Therefore, while contacting the exiles, he asked Galahad to bring these documents to Shermans to verify that the cardinal of the exiles did not know what he had said with Anthony, nor did he know the relationship between the cleansing agencies and the Gospel Church. He will give the most true answer to the struggle between the two.

But the answer is that Shermans recognized the person in the photo at a glance. Although the exiled cardinal is old, he still remembers him. His number is 047 and he is named after Medanzo. The strongest among the Danzo Demon Hunters.

  They guarded outside the Cathedral of Saint Nalo, protecting the pope, and sometimes the cardinals. It can be said that they are the closest demon hunters to the cardinals, and Shermans will not remember it wrong.

   Such a comparison directly confirms that Anthony's words are not lie, or that he has not lied about Lorenzo's identity.

  The one who lied then was Lorenzo, but why did he lie? He weaves his past into another story and misleads everyone... Or is he also wary of himself?

  The product that originated from the night of Holy Prophet, the mysterious product called the pseudo-Holy Grail, no one knows its nature at all, and no one knows how far it can be...

Lan Jade looked at Arthur with some worry, and saw Arthur lowered and stared at the crumpled black and white photo. Sweat dripped from his cheeks. Nothing happened, but he It's like facing some weird pressure.

So, think about it this way, Lorenzo is hiding himself because he knows this. He deceived everyone just to hide the secret he brought out from the night of the Holy Prophet. But at that time, Lorenzo was right Is there any place he made up for everything about the night of the Holy Prophet?

  With great exhaustion in his heart, he made a decision amid constant worries.

   "Everyone has an ulterior secret..."

   Arthur said and looked at Lan Jade, his concealment of Eve, Lan Jade's past, and Lorenzo's evil spirit.

   "Did Lorenzo lie to you again? And it was very serious."

   Although she doesn’t know exactly what happened, she has also roughly analyzed what has just happened.

   "Well, I don't know the position of that bastard."

  Arthur lowered his head, entangled in his heart.

   "Should I..."

  If Lorenzo really had any intentions, how could he be so desperate to assassinate Lawrence? That is not desperate, it is simply death. If there is no subsequent mutation, Lorenzo will really die, and there will be no corpses in the bombing.

  He will die, and the secrets he concealed will die together.

  "Do you think Lorenzo is trustworthy?"

  Blue Jade was taken aback, she thought for a few minutes, but just about to speak, Arthur said suddenly.

   "What does he want to do?"

"do what?"

  Lan Jade thought for a while, she didn't have a long time in contact with Lorenzo, and even said she hadn't seen a few times, but she couldn't think of whether Lorenzo was impressed.

  Although he is neurotic, he has a strong personal touch as a demon hunter, she replied.

   "Hunt and kill demons, I can only think of these, like a diligent worker, his job is to hunt demons, he will kill all the time from Fei Lengcui to Jiu Dunling, never stop."

   "But what if he is a terrible monster himself?"

   "Isn't that the case with the Demon Hunter?"

  Blue Jade's words were like awakening Arthur. She did not understand Arthur's distress.

   "Like the original sin armor or the secret blood, we are all using the power of the monster to fight against the monster. We are all monsters, but we are rational in the madness."

  She said and pointed to her head, the place where reason is maintained.

   "Yes... Lorenzo is not crazy at least now, or he has been crazy for too long, so long as he is crazy like a normal person."

Just like those patients in the Black Mountain Hospital, they can live a normal life, talk to you, and some people are even more intelligent than you, but they are not normal people, they are lunatics, but in that madness they learned to pretend Myself, waiting for the day to escape from that hospital.

   Arthur rearranged his thoughts, thinking of Anthony's words and deeds, he went on to say.

   "I need to talk to him, where is he?"

  In such a complicated situation, Arthur hopes to end this in a way that can't see the blood.

  ……

   "It's been a long time since I saw you, Mr. Holmes."

  Out of the strictly sealed conference room, in the gray corridor, the familiar alchemist waved to Lorenzo, Merlin still wore the somewhat tattered gray robe, it seemed that he was wearing these all year round.

   "Yeah, long time no see."

Seeing Merlin, Lorenzo's mood slightly improved. He didn't quite understand why Gawain was so indifferent to the information of the exiles, but what he didn't know was that the decontamination agency had actually cooperated with the exiles. But to ensure safety, this news is now strictly blocked.

   "You seem to be recovering pretty well, there is nothing unusual about your body, right?"

Compared to the meeting of friends... If they are considered friends, Merlin is more concerned about Lorenzo's body. In the view of the alchemist, Lorenzo is a very perfect experimental subject, if it weren't for Lorenzo. Zo didn't agree. He estimated that there would be many weird things, and he wanted to try Lorenzo.

   "It's okay, nothing else."

  This sudden concern made Lorenzo very uncomfortable, although he knew that Merlin's question was only to study his body.

   "It looks like the flesh and blood are perfectly blended with you, it's incredible."

  Merlin looked at Lorenzo from start to finish. He was not there when Lawrence was assassinated, but according to those thrilling text reports, he could also think of the thrills at that time.

According to Seleuc’s dictation in the report, Lorenzo was already dead...probably half-dead. In short, it was almost impossible to survive, but he finally survived. The black angel fell out of control and killed the man who was dominated by the Holy Grail. After Lawrence, it swallowed Lorenzo again, and then the demon hunter came back to the ground like a fire.

  As for the black angel’s loss of control, no results have been investigated so far, and the armor of original sin named the black angel has been sealed in the depths of the perpetual pump since then.

"follow me."

  Merlin glanced at it and motioned directly to Lorenzo to follow him.

  Lorenzo, the pump of perpetual motion, did not come frequently, and he did not move freely every time he came. He has never had a specific concept of size for this research institution built on the backbone of the Pillar of the Furnace.

  With the leadership of Merlin, the land under his feet continues to extend. The more he advances, the more Lorenzo can feel the vastness of this place.

Lorenzo remembered the description of the old Dunling by those people. They said that the Mechanical Yard hollowed out the underground of the old Dunling and built a huge mechanical system there. At first Lorenzo only thought that was an exaggerated description, but As he gradually understood the underground world, he felt that this was not a boast.

I can’t remember who said it to him. He said that this place is like a towering tree, the mechanical courtyard, the pillar of the furnace and the pump of perpetual motion, they are built vertically together, running through the piece called Jiudun Ling soil of.

   "This reminds me of the Temple of Silence."

  Lorenzo said suddenly.

   "The location of the Demon Hunter?"

  Merlin heard Lorenzo's voice and asked curiously.

  Lorenzo nodded, then continued.

   "The Temple of Silence is like this, built under the Cathedral of San Nalo, like the shadow after the glory."

   "I really want to go and see if I have a chance, the place where the Demon Hunting Order originated."

  Merlin’s voice reveals her yearning.

   "That's not a good place... Instead, I don't want to go back. If I can, I don't want to be near Feilengcui for the rest of my life."

  Lorenzo made no secret of his disgust for his hometown.

   "Why? It's where you were born anyway." Merlin asked.

   "Do you think that simple thing can restrain me? It's just pure annoyance."

  Lorenzo thought for a while, and then said, "It's a sad place, I don't like it."

   "Wait, why should I tell you this? Where are you taking me?"

  Lorenzo suddenly recovered, maybe out of trust in the alchemist, he let himself follow, and he followed. After walking for so long, Lorenzo still didn't know where his destination was.

   "Soon, I just want you to cooperate and do some research. Of course, there is also a check on you."

   Merlin said worriedly.

"You know it yourself, yes, your resurrection from the dead is not a miracle, but the flesh and blood of the Holy Grail saved you. The terrible vitality cannot be killed even by the bombardment of artillery and the burning of crude oil. It is losing After being restrained by Lawrence's will, it grows savagely like weeds..."

  Merlin's footsteps suddenly stopped, her tone full of fear.

   "If there are no subsequent events, the brutal growth of the Holy Grail flesh and blood, it will multiply and change wildly like the monsters we have encountered, but it will finally be fused into your body."

   He pointed to Lorenzo's chest and warned.

"Lorenzo, don't look at you now, but in fact, you are as good as Lawrence, successfully fusing the flesh and blood of the Holy Grail, and the difference between you and Lawrence is that the flesh and blood of the Holy Grail are completely mixed with your body. In terms of flesh and blood ratio, you far exceed Lawrence."

   These words made Lorenzo himself unconsciously worried. He didn't think much about this, but he didn't expect it to be so terrible in Merlin's mouth.

  "Fortunately, you are far younger than Lawrence, and your will can maintain reason. Unlike him, you are controlled by the original Holy Grail flesh and blood."

  Merlin stopped in front of a lift, and as the steel door slowly opened, a small space was exposed in front of the two of them.

"come in."

  He walked in and shouted at Lorenzo outside the door.

  Lorenzo did not move, but looked at the elevator with some suspiciousness. He was already in the pump of perpetual motion, so what's below?

In fact, what he never said was that on his way to follow Merlin, there was a strange feeling that was hard to ignore and a kind of lingering around Lorenzo. Merlin’s conversation occupied his attention. He didn’t care much, but now The sense of weirdness became even worse.

After hesitating for a while, Lorenzo walked in, shaking slightly in the small space, and both of them were silent until Lorenzo couldn't help asking.

   "What's below?"

   "Um...probably your savior."

   "Savior?"

  Lorenzo was startled, and then the door opened, and a dazzling light shone down.

He squinted his eyes, resisting the discomfort and walked out of the elevator. After adapting, he realized that he was in a huge underground space. It looked similar to the workshop, but the difference from the workshop was that it didn’t. The strong defense of the workshop is like a temporary establishment.

  The steel frame supports this space, and people are walking in it. The guide rails and cables are staggered in it. With the rotation of the winch, one heavy object is lifted.

  The smell of rust mixed with the stench of blood, rushing into Lorenzo’s nasal cavity, the unknown red liquid overflowed his shoes, and then poured into the drain hole, flowing in an unknown direction.

  "After that incident, we have been studying the reasons for its out-of-control, but nothing was achieved. At that time, it was not only you who were fused with the Holy Grail, but also it."

Listening to Merlin's words, Lorenzo couldn't help but raised his head and looked into the mid-air. The countless chains and strange metal machinery bound it, and the dark iron feathers were intertwined, tightly closed to protect the core. Get up, under the strong light, it is like a finely crafted black egg.

   "Really a savior..."

  Lorenzo looked up at the black angel, it remained absolutely silent, like a sculpture.
