Chapter 156: Seductive

This world is a hazy chaos, human beings live on the only remaining land in the chaos, and use all their strength to push the [boundary] of chaos backwards, striving for more living space and more understanding of the unknown.

"Lorenzo, this is a new discovery, and perhaps in this direction, we will finally discover the nature of demons. Merlin looked excited at the moment.

"No, Merlin...... Wait a minute, this knowledge is cursed, and you were right about what you felt before. Lorenzo interrupted him.

"What did you say?" Merlin was a little puzzled.

"Knowledge is cursed, and it seems that there is a certain [boundary] in human cognition of this world, and once we touch [boundary] or even cross [boundary], we will suffer disaster. ”

Lorenzo did not mention the existence of the Silencer, he could not judge the specific concept of Boundary, and could only embellish it verbally as much as possible.

Looking at Lorenzo's serious eyes, Merlin was silent for a moment, and then he asked.

"You really remembered what it was, didn't you?"

Lorenzo nodded.

"You still remember a lot of things, a lot of things that can refresh our perception of demons, but because of the so-called [border], you can't tell me, because once you say it, I can be attacked by some kind of unknown, right?"

Lorenzo nodded again, knowing the hidden secret, but now he could only play dumb riddles with Merlin.

"I'm not sure the exact extent of [the boundary]...... Too many people have died because of this kind of thing. ”

In retrospect, Shermans' death was already predestined, just like a dark fate, if he hadn't died of Canterella's toxin, would there have been another Silencer who appeared out of thin air and wielded a spike to kill Shermans?

"So...... Advent Night is because of that kind of thing, isn't it? I thought something wasn't right, but you're the only survivor, and we're going to have to believe the information you're talking about. ”

Merlin had a sudden sense of enlightenment for a while, before the night of the Holy Presence, the Demon Hunting Order was an organization far more powerful than the Purification Mechanism, how could they have fought against demons for thousands of years and be completely wiped out due to an experimental accident?

"On that night of Adventism, the Demon Hunters' research on the Holy Grail touched the border, and a calamity struck and destroyed all ......"

This was Merlin's speculation, and it was the right one, and as Merlin spoke, Lorenzo's mind couldn't help but return to the burning night, and suddenly he realized that it seemed to be all Lorenzo Medici's conspiracy.

In his old age, he could no longer control the Church, so he deliberately leaked the Holy Grail to his enemies, and while they were studying, he also sublimated in the dry well.

A deep chill welled up in his heart, not by accident, but by premeditation, and that night Lorenzo Medici was being sublimated and the ritual of sublimation was being carried out in the Sanctuary of Stillness, both of which attracted the attention of the Silencer, who wanted to relieve the pressure on his side in dealing with the Silencer.

No...... Not only that, the only person in the church who had a certain understanding of the silent ones at that time was Lorenzo Medici, he did not give up the [Holy Grail], the [Holy Grail] itself was a part of his counterattack, Lorenzo could already think of the shock and fear in the eyes of those people when the countless silent ones in the Silent Temple appeared out of thin air.

Lorenzo Medici wanted to destroy the war faction of the Evangelical Church directly with the Silent Ones, and when they were all dead, he would return to the Evangelical Church in a new shell, and after a night of complete reshuffling, he would regain all of this.

It was a deep chill, Lorenzo Medici had been dead for so long, but looking back now, Lorenzo could only feel the fear, and his stubborn obsession, his attachment to the golden age.

"Probably...... Perhaps this is the truth of Advent night, or perhaps part of it. ”

Lorenzo clutched his head and thought again about what had already happened, like falling into the cobwebs of conspiracy, countless threads enveloping him.

I couldn't help but think of the old man again, he was a very interesting and peculiar man, obviously so persistent in the golden age, so persistent that he could set up such a terrible scheme to drag everyone into his deception, but when he knew that he had failed, this guy did not go crazy and cry.

Lorenzo Medici chose himself, and in the face of defeat, he barely hesitated, as if he had rehearsed it countless times in his head, and he handed over the fireworks to himself......

"Merlin, what's going on now?"

Lorenzo's hand brushed the water on the ground and wiped it vigorously on his face to sober himself up.

There's no time to think about that, and the main goal is to solve the terrible situation first.

"Demons, the invasion of demons, we suspect the remnants of Lawrence, they are the only ones who have the power to create this mass of demons...... Those demons are all patients of the Black Mountain Hospital. ”

Merlin said immediately.

And Arthur also suspected that under such circumstances, the Protestant Order would not let go of this opportunity, and perhaps they would do it...... The goal is you. ”

"Is that so...... Where are the railroad tracks leaving the Black Mountain Hospital?" asked Lorenzo suddenly.

"Rails?"

"Yes, I arrived here in the Iron Serpent, so where are the rails, I'm going to get out of here. Lorenzo said.

"You need to get out of here now, you can't let the Protestant Order capture you, but the Iron Serpent is not safe, and now that the entire Old Dunling traffic has come to a halt due to the storm, you will be very conspicuous. "Merlin is a good guy for Lorenzo.

"You don't have to worry about that, Merlin. ”

Merlin was silent, then raised his knife and pointed in one direction after the rainstorm.

"Keep going on, there is the main entrance of the Black Mountain Hospital, the way you came...... But, Lorenzo, you're going to run away, aren't you? ”

Merlin asked hesitantly, if he was Lorenzo, he would make such a decision, now the purification mechanism and the new order are not friendly to Lorenzo, all Lorenzo can do is to escape far away, but with the ability of this detective, Merlin doesn't have to worry about anything.

But what made him hesitate was that if Lorenzo wanted to hide, it would be difficult for the purifier to find him, Merlin didn't miss the great detective, what he longed for was the secrets that Lorenzo carried, those knowledge about the back of [Boundary].

"I don't know, but if I do leave Old Dunling, I have some things to do before I do. ”

Lorenzo stood up, his eyes looking in the direction Merlin was pointing.

"What are you going to do?"

"Counterattack, it's a bit bad right now, but for me, the game has just begun, and didn't you say that? Their goal is me, and if I get out of here, I can share the firepower with you, after all, you guys are looking a little bad right now. ”

You could clearly feel a palpitating eruption of erosion on the other side of the rainstorm, not one, but several, fierce gunfire, and the massive body of the original sin armor flickering.

The battle in the Black Mountain Hospital has started in full swing, and the cold rain curtain reveals the unbearable smell of blood.

"So can you do it alone? Merlin. ”

Lorenzo then asked that he was going to do something very risky, that he couldn't take Merlin with him, and that it was too dangerous for him to stay here.

"No problem. ”

Merlin waved the folding knife in his hand, which was still stained with blood, and no one knew how many secret secrets this mysterious alchemist had.

"But, Lorenzo, if you don't come back......"

"If I don't come back, I'll write to you about that cursed passage, but I hope you'll be prepared, Merlin, for if you do continue to explore, there's a good chance you'll make another ...... in the Old Dun Spirit The night of Advent. ”

Lorenzo also struggled with this, and in dealing with the [Border], he also fell into the predicament of the ancestors, the truth is in front of him, but once he fails, it will drag all this into that burning nightmare.

"Is that so...... I see, but if it's a terrible nightmare behind this door, will you continue to explore? Merlin asked.

"Of course. ”

Lorenzo said without thinking.

The two looked at each other and said no more, Lorenzo turned and rushed into the rain, as the secret blood was stirred, the boiling fireworks burned as he went, the fiery heat evaporated the icy rain, and the surging steam enveloped him and entangled him.

The secret blood continues to awaken until it reaches a critical point.

Critical breakthroughs.

For a moment, it was as if a boulder had fallen into the calm lake, stirring up a huge wave.

The breakthrough of the Secret Blood's ascension lasted only a breath, and then it calmed down again, but for a short time, the surging erosion continued to spread, sweeping over most of the surrounding area, transmitting that palpitating power to everyone affected by Lorenzo.

Like fireworks burning in the night, Lorenzo was completely exposed to the eyes of those who peep, and as expected, those guys should have turned around and headed here, although he didn't know how much firepower he could share with the purifier, but Lorenzo knew that that guy would definitely not let go of this opportunity.

"Moriarty ......"

This is no longer a war between witchers and demons, this is Lorenzo's fight to the death with him, it is simple to kill a person, but what Lorenzo wants to do is defeat him, where he is most proud.

Everything in sight became chaotic under the rainstorm, as if Lorenzo had arrived in another world, a huge ocean had been turned upside down by the power of the gods, thousands of waters were falling, and at the end of the sight, the man waited by the railroad tracks with an umbrella for a long time.

......

"Ah...... It's tempting......"

Looking at the figure that gradually disappeared behind the rain curtain, Merlin said with a somewhat envious tone.

Truth.

The truth that all alchemists have been chasing all their lives, Merlin can now feel that he is getting closer and closer to him, so close at hand, that he has a hunch that the door to the truth is behind the so-called [border], as long as he uses it to step forward, as long as he dares to face the threat of death.

In a trance, he also figured out a lot of things, and the alchemists were also brilliant, but as time went by, the alchemists became fewer and fewer, and the so-called truth was always obscured by the hazy veil.

If you say...... In fact, there was an alchemist who touched the truth a long time ago, and he also crossed the [boundary], so the moment he realized the truth, he also died.

In this way, all the knowledge disconnections and the lack of technology seem to have a reasonable explanation, and there are people in this world who are deliberately influencing the direction of the world.

Merlin couldn't help but tremble, and on the cliff in his heart, countless Merlin stood on the edge of the cliff.

They are afraid, but also rejoicing, the truth they have been chasing is in front of them, they don't want to continue to be for the sake of human sanity and continuity, at this moment a somewhat "selfish" idea is slowly rising.

It's better to take a look, to see the beautiful truth, even if it comes at the cost of your own death.

No, he can't die yet, the war between humans and demons is not over yet, Merlin can't die so selfishly.

On the cliff, Merlin was agitated, but suddenly there was a sound of heavy footsteps, and before Merlin knew what was happening, he was slashed by the sword, and they cried and screamed, but it could not prevent it from happening, and Merlin was killed, thrown under the cliff, and fell on the solid rock, and his flesh was blurred.

It was the sane Merlin, who held the blade of his sword and continued to slash wildly until he had killed all the bad thoughts, selfish thoughts, and would interfere with his own thoughts, until finally there was only a sane Merlin left on the cliff, and he looked down the cliff, and countless corpses were piled up into an ocean.

"No, I can't do that yet. ”

Merlin muttered softly, holding back his desires, dispelling the thoughts in his heart, he couldn't be so selfish yet, the Perpetual Pump still needed him, and the Purifier still needed him.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps sounded again behind the rain curtain, and strange creatures came with blood that could not be washed away by the rain, Merlin's gaze slowly shifted to its body, and then clenched the folding knife.

"Demon ......"

Merlin looked at the monster that followed the breath of the living, and almost at the same time that Merlin saw it, the demon attacked, and it was at this moment that steel cut through the rain curtain, and the burst glow resounded with a metallic moan.

Blood and bones cracked, large, hideous wounds exploded along the demon's chest and abdomen, the heart and the spine that connected the skull were shattered, and steaming internal organs were scattered in the icy water.

Merlin slowly put away the folding knife, his face expressionless, many people have never seen the era of alchemists, at that time, in order to study truth and miracles, many materials needed to be done by alchemists themselves, such as hunting demons.
