Chapter 30: The Holy Flame

It seemed that the whole world had lost its light, and there was only unrecognizable darkness in her vision, and Eve walked in the dark corridors, still waiting for the light to come, as Lorenzo said, when those who have lived in darkness for a long time see the light, it will be a kind of hysterical madness.

Lorenzo and Eve were going deeper at the moment, and they hadn't stopped moving since they were freed from their restraints until they got here.

The detective didn't know where the two of them were, and it was so dark that they couldn't tell the direction at all, and at this time, crazy voices kept ringing out.

It was a sound from behind the wall, eerie and creepy, as if there were thousands of steel needles rubbing against the wall slightly, and as if there were countless poisonous snakes curling their scales and making that rattling sound.

"It's the stomach chewing grass, it's a mass of flesh and tentacles, and calling it a grass is just a plant-like characteristic, but its essence is still a demon, and now it's out of trouble. ”

Lorenzo's voice came from the darkness, but Eve couldn't see him, and it was a really bad feeling.

"What are we supposed to do?"

"Going up, we need to find our way out, and sooner or later we will be eaten clean by the stomach grass. ”

A hand reached out in the darkness and grabbed Eve, it was Lorenzo, and he lit another cigarette so that Eve could confirm his location.

The corridor extends in all directions, and the route is also very good to confirm that it can go all the way up, but with the two of them going up, the corridor began to shake violently, and this phenomenon occurred in the hall, it seems that someone is shelling towards the underground palace.

"Could it be the one who saved us?"

Eve had forgotten about Lorenzo's use of her in this terrible situation, and she just wanted to escape from this nightmarish place now.

"It shouldn't be, it stands to reason that Su Yalan Hall will not have such heavy firepower as artillery, but tonight I know that we are only in Su Yalan Hall, and if he wants to mobilize this firepower weapon, he needs to apply to the military department, but even if he applies, there is no reason to arrive so quickly. ”

Dust fell from the walls of the corridor, one after another, as if it was going to collapse in the next second.

"Unless...... Unless there is another group of people ......"

The whole thing seemed clear, and Lorenzo struggled forward, trying to find an exit.

Tonight has nothing to do with Lorenzo, this is a game between Sabo and another force, those demons are not for themselves, but those who attack here, Lorenzo and Eve are just little sheep who strayed into this battle.

"Do you smell anything?"

Eve sniffed the air and seemed to sense something.

Lorenzo took the cigarette, and the smell of the tobacco interfered with his judgment to a certain extent.

His clear breath was heard in the darkness, and the silence lasted for a few moments, before Lorenzo's voice rang out again.

"Good news, bad news. ”

Pulling Eve, Lorenzo ran directly in the corridor, not caring about the sound of the stomach chewing grass, the two of them were in a hurry to die.

"The good news is that there is a group of more professional people who have come to our rescue, and they know that sealing the dungeon with this thing is fire oil, and the demons are afraid of the flames, which can weaken them to a great extent. ”

Lorenzo shouted.

"The bad news is that we are also in the dungeon, and they will burn us to death together!"

The thick smell of smoke could already be clearly smelled in the darkness, and it was already felt at such a deep depth, it was hard to imagine what it was like to burn above.

"Shall we continue to go up, then?"

Eve also panicked suddenly, if she continued to go up, she would inevitably collide with the sea of fire, but if she kept going down, she would have no way out.

"The dungeon is so deep and there are so many people, it must have its own discharge system, we need to find that. ”

Lorenzo quickly thought of a new route, and he was fully prepared before coming to the dungeon.

"The underground drainage system of Old Dunling is for the whole steam system, and it is found in every corner of the city, and huge steam gushes out of the steam engines underground, and the accumulated rainwater falls again, and it all ends up in the River Thames. ”

Having been in the old Dunling for so long, Lorenzo had already taken everything he knew about the old Dunling in his head.

"There must be a culvert in this dungeon that discharges sewage, as long as we find one, we can go straight down the channel back to the Thames!"

The detective showed incredible reliability in terms of escape, and he didn't do much to hide at the moment, he directly swung his staff and sword to cut open the iron door at the end of his vision, and after running for so long, this was the first door Lorenzo had seen, and he had to go in and see whatever was inside.

The iron door cracked, and then a thick cloud of smoke poured into the corridor, and the two of them felt a rush of heat as soon as they stepped inside.

It seemed to be beneath the hall, and at the end of the darkness there was a fire that was rapidly approaching.

It was on fire, whimpering and wailing as it advanced, its tentacles scraping against the walls with a scaly grinding sound.

"I guess that's the companion demon of the stomach grass. ”

Lorenzo's expression was a little ugly, just like the flowers in nature, the stomach grass can provide shelter for the demon, but in the same way, the seeds of the stomach grass will also parasitize the demon's body, and the iron branch red grass will grow on the hideous body.

Raising the shotgun in his hand, Lorenzo pulled the trigger directly, and then countless projectiles slammed into the flesh with great force, blood splattered, but then more tentacles grew out of the wound, and the intense pain and lust for flesh drove the deformed demon forward.

"When you run, you see something like a canal and you hold your breath and jump down!"

Lorenzo didn't back down, just said coldly to Eve.

"What about you?"

Eve was a little confused, could it be that Lorenzo wanted to deal with that demon alone?

"Run! You're only getting in the way if you stay here!"

The demon began to run with all her might, Lorenzo shouted angrily, and then pushed Eve away, and the girl staggered a few steps, looked at the figure in front of the firelight, as if she had made up her mind, turned back and ran hard, shouting at the same time.

"I'll be waiting for you in the back!"

In this kind of terrible situation, someone actually said that he would wait for you, if in the past, Lorenzo could have been moved to cry, but now it is different, and the criticality of the situation does not have time for him to think of anything else.

Hunting demons is essentially a very dangerous job, and everything about demons is corroding the human spirit, let alone fighting them at close range, bathing in the blood of enemies.

Even Lorenzo couldn't guarantee that he would be able to keep his sanity in this situation, so Eve had to leave, and of course there were other factors, such as the next thing that would never be known to others.

Handle the sharp staff sword, just at the moment when the demon was about to hit Lorenzo, the detective's figure twisted strangely, with the flexibility of ordinary people, this is an action that can never be done, but he just achieved it, found a dead angle from the huge figure, and then used his strength to cross the past, and at the same time the staff sword cut the body, bringing up a large area of blood.

The demons let out a hoarse scream, and then the tentacles on their bodies seemed to wake up, and they flocked strangely like snakes, rushing towards Lorenzo, but they were greeted only by a sharp white light.

Lorenzo was on his staff, and a faint white gas rose from under his clothes, like steam.

The gray-blue pupils began to constrict, and finally turned into vertical pupils like the beast, as if something was wriggling under his body, but because of the presence of the clothes, he could only see a faint bulge, and slowly raised the sword, the tip of the sword was slightly pointing downward, and he was still on the edge of reason.

In the next second, the demon roared forward, its tentacles were like wielding a sharp sword, as long as it touched the flesh, the tiny mouthparts on it would bite and eat everything, but the sword light fell like thunder, like a knife cutting everything.

The figure rolled rapidly, and after entering that strange state, Lorenzo's physical functions were constantly strengthened, running faster, and the sword was faster, and it was even said that he could directly jump over the huge body of the demon just by jumping on the spot.

After that, the shotgun attacked from above, and the dense projectiles hit the demon's head with precision, opening a bowl-sized gap there, and Lorenzo simply abandoned the shotgun, allowing it to fall at will.

This fatal thing happened in a matter of seconds, and Lorenzo's body remained in mid-air, his legs slamming against the wall, and he stabbed with lightning speed with his sword in both hands.

It was the falling thunderbolt, the sword of fire that judged the demons.

The sharp staff sword stabbed directly along the gap made by the shotgun, piercing through the demon's head, but at this time, the stomach chewing grass also caught Lorenzo, and countless mouthparts bit his body tightly, like a swarming pack of wolves, with the eating speed seen in the deep pit, Lorenzo will be eaten up in ten seconds, even if he gets out now, his body will be parasitic on the stomach chewing grass, waiting for him only death.

Endless blood gushed out of the body, and in the end, only a jagged white bone was left on the demon's body, which was supposed to be the next plot, but none of this happened.

It was something hard to eat, at least for the stomach chewing grass, and the mouthparts bit through Lorenzo's skin, greedily sucking the warm blood, but soon the demon's small IQ realized something.

It was unappetizing blood, and Lorenzo's body exuded the same aura as their demons, as if the human had become a demon in this short period of time, and it was confused, but then the intense pain overtook everything.

Blood-red tentacles enveloped Lorenzo, but in the cracks of the tentacles, endless white flames rose from them, scorching every part of the demon.

"It hurts, doesn't it?"

In the white fireworks, Lorenzo's expression was crazy, his blood was burning, like some kind of chemical agent, it was ineffective when it was outside the body, but when it touched the demon's flesh, it began to burn wildly.

Dead on the sword, blood stretched down the lines of the blade to the flesh, and then an even more violent flame ignited, and every inch of the demon's flesh burned to ashes under the flame, but it could not hurt Lorenzo himself.

The massive body went on a rampage, and it tried to throw Lorenzo off, but the detective just stayed there, nailed to its skull like a nail, and the stomach swelled heavily, but the result was that it was engulfed in a larger fire.

The roaring impact lasted for a long time, like a battle between trapped beasts, until finally the demon slowly stopped, and it died.

The holy white flames burned through its shell, and the huge corpse contained only unburned flesh and ashes, and Lorenzo paused for a long time before slowly getting up with his staff and sword, his face pale and even a little untenable.

He usually prepares a lot to fight demons, but the life of Old Dunling has made him forget everything in the past, and he thinks that the demons are dead, but today they still find them.

The demon was burned alive by Lorenzo's blood, but Lorenzo was also in a trance due to excessive blood loss, picked up his shotgun, and used his staff and sword as a crutch to move forward slowly.

His hand gently stroked the back of his body, which was Lorenzo's spine, but unlike a normal person's spine, he had a very obvious bulge there.

"The Bolt of Silver is still intact......

He let out a long sigh, not knowing what he was glad about.

But just as Lorenzo was about to let down his guard, the instinctive warning rose again, from the front of Lorenzo, the direction in which Eve had left.
