Chapter Seventy-Six: The Invincible Mr. Holmes Has Fallen

042 does not exist.

In an instant, Lorenzo's bones seemed to be pulled clean, and he lost the support of the frame, and sat back in his seat weakly.

He was Medanzo, 047, all that Lorenzo had held on to since that Night of Arrival, all his anger, all his sorrows, all the unforgivable, and even Lorenzo Holmes himself......

Suddenly there was an inexplicable sense of sadness, Lorenzo gave everything he had to eradicate the demons, but now he was a fictional existence.

It's all just a wild imagination.

Meaningless conjectures.

There was pity in everyone's eyes at the moment, and they seemed to pity this sad soul.

"I know this may be hard to accept, but Mr. Holmes, according to the information, you have become a detective in your new life in Old Dunling. ”

Anthony seems to have won this game, Lorenzo is a crazy guy, he will do anything for the end, even if he loses his hands, he will bite the throat of his enemy hard, but at this moment Anthony destroyed everything for him.

"As a detective, you should be aware of the importance of evidence, and now all the evidence proves that 042 does not exist, and your real identity is 047, the witcher who was given the name of Medanzo. ”

Lorenzo lowered his head, as if looking at the pictures of himself.

Lorenzo had long thought he looked similar to Medanzo, but now the threshold of resemblance had been broken, and the two faces overlapped each other, turning into a crazy look.

"There have been similar cases in Montenegro hospitals......"

Merlin said suddenly, his tone devoid of emotion.

"A knight was eroded, and the erosion was so severe that his memory was misplaced, he forgot who he was, and then he lived in a sanatorium for many years, except for amnesia, he was no different from ordinary people, but in the long life he had new friends, a new social circle......"

The empty eyes reflected the lost fellow, like a wild dog with a broken back.

"He had a new life, but suddenly one day he woke up, and he remembered everything......"

The calm voice was mournful, as if the man in the story was sitting here at the moment, and the other one woke up, and his hands tore his chest, and another bloody head stretched out.

"He has become a completely different person from the past, the present and the past have become blurred, he can't even tell who he is at the moment, the woman he loved before the amnesia has a family, and after the amnesia, he is living with a familiar and strange woman, his life has collapsed, but the murderer is himself......"

"Mr. Holmes, you have been contaminated by the False Holy Grail, and even a witcher as strong as you cannot feel the contamination going on, and you have been swallowed up by a little bit of corrosion in this long time. ”

Anthony concluded.

Everyone looked at the man with his head bowed, he used to be like an unruly flame, neither the wind nor the torrential rain could extinguish him, but now the fire was like melting snow, withering little by little, turning into a small mass that could not even illuminate himself.

"The invincible Mr. Holmes has fallen~"

The hell's voice sounded, very slightly, but it was so clear in the quiet conference room, and the man repeated it over and over again, with the melody of a nursery rhyme.

"The invincible Mr. Holmes has fallen~"

Lorenzo slowly raised his head and looked at everyone in the room with a dejected gaze.

It was a pitiful face, like a puppy drenched in heavy rain, and you couldn't help but want to pick it up, but suddenly there was a smile on that sad face, and then it became hideous, and the broken steel was put back together and became stronger and stronger.

The flickering flames in the wind began to tumble and burst into a blazing sea of fire.

Damn aside, just as Mr. Holmes, whom everyone thought was invincible, fell, Lorenzo hardened again, looking at everyone present with a strange smile and mockery.

"Who am I, where am I from, where am I going?"

Lorenzo whispered, but the madness of the voice touched everyone.

Anthony was also vigilant at the moment, everything had gone according to his expectations until the current sudden situation.

Arthur suddenly laughed with Lorenzo at this point, clapping his hands as he laughed.

The invincible Mr. Holmes is up again, he is a monster who wants to kill the demons, and no one can defeat him before that.

Anthony never figured out a single point, according to him, Lorenzo was a man who lived in madness, and in this long period of madness, this absurd and strange world had become the norm for him.

Lorenzo Holmes himself is an extreme madman, a madman who will do anything to eradicate demons, and a normal person who thinks he is sane will never guess the madman's steps.

"I'm from Fei Leng Cui, and I'm going to eradicate demons, but who am I...... Does it matter?"

Lorenzo reversed his previous stubbornness, but at the moment he didn't care who he was, he stared at Anthony closely, as if he would draw a Winchester from somewhere and shoot at him in the next second.

"No, no, no...... It doesn't matter where I'm from, it's all in the past, and the only thing I think is useful of these three hellish questions is where I'm going. ”

Lorenzo regained his composure and sat down in his chair with his hands through his short pale blonde hair.

"Yes, I can come from Fei Leng Cui, I can come from the old Dunling, or even from that distant Nine Summers, I can also be 047, or 042, of course I don't mind calling me Arthur, anyway, the name is just a name for a thing, isn't it?

The only thing that matters is what I do. ”

Lorenzo looked at Anthony with a smile and calmly spoke of his long-cherished wish.

"I'm a ...... A weapon temporarily named Lorenzo Holmes, I'm going to eradicate all demons.

So, what about you, Father Anthony. ”

Lorenzo crossed his legs and folded his hands on them.

"With all that said, what do you want to do? Father Anthony?"

Anthony was stunned, and after a long time he laughed helplessly.

"It's you. ”

A witcher who has carried the pseudo-chalice for several years and can continue to fight in the midst of madness, he will not fall so easily, and even if he falls, he will take the demons into hell with him.

Anthony restrained his smile and rekindled his respect for the witcher, unlike the new generation of witchers, he had had the privilege of catching a glimpse of the horn, and he knew very well what the witcher had faced...... Not only did he face it, but he was alive to get out of that forbidden madness.

"We want to recycle the false chalice you carried with you. ”

Anthony continued.

"The False Grail was born on the night of Arrival, and due to the loss of control at the time, we only knew that it was dangerous, and knew nothing about it. ”

"You want to recover and test the power of the Pseudo-Holy Grail?" Lorenzo glanced at what they were trying to do, and then he laughed boredly.

"That's the property of the Evangelical Church. ”

"But I'm now in the purification agency. Lorenzo replied mercilessly.

Lorenzo then continued.

"Anthony, I know what you are here for, and I even say that you still have ......"

His eyes fell on the silent purifiers on the side.

Lorenzo stood up suddenly, and he walked slowly around the round table of the meeting, like a deer of joy, turning and kicking his legs from time to time, as if he were doing a dance.

He's calm, but he's on the edge of a runaway red line.

"The Evangelical Church, Purifying the Organs...... It's a pity, after all, you are only trying to obtain the forbidden power under the banner of fighting demons.

That's not something mere mortals should touch. ”

Lorenzo put his hands on Arthur's shoulders.

"Don't be in a hurry to contradict me, ladies and gentlemen, isn't that what it is, when we are weaker than demons, we try to destroy them with all our might, but when we are equal to them, or even slightly superior, the inferiority of human beings appears.

You have also begun to crave the forbidden power, yes, the power to satisfy your greed, and it is only fitting that it can be used. ”

There was a bit of loneliness in the gray and blue eyes.

"I really miss the moment of the Eastern Crusade in history, there are no distractions, everyone just wants to destroy the demons, so pure. ”

Lorenzo then looked at Anthony on the side and said emotionlessly.

"Father, give up, neither you nor the purification mechanism, the power of the pseudo-Holy Grail is not something you can touch, it is the same as the Holy Grail, it belongs to the [Messiah] level containment, it has a memetic effect, if I say its real name here, maybe you will be eroded and infected in the next second......"

With a threat in his words, Lorenzo glanced around.

"You don't want that, do you? ”

Lorenzo threatens everyone that if he pronounces the forbidden name, he may start another night of Presence in the Old Dun Spirit.

Of course, this is only a prediction, as Anthony said, no one knows about the abilities of the False Grail, maybe there are those who know, but they all died on the night of Adventing.

"No, Lorenzo, you're not going to do that. ”

Arthur said suddenly.

"You're a madman, but at least you're a madman with a bottom line, and you're going to eradicate the demon, so you're going to be a cage and you're trapped forever in that demon.

This act of dying with everyone is contrary to your purpose. ”

Lorenzo seemed a little surprised, he didn't expect this guy who always pointed a gun at him to know him so well, but he said immediately.

"But never test the bottom line of a madman, maybe I'll die with everyone on a whim?"

Lorenzo's demeanor was so relaxed that it was hard to guess if he was talking bad or if he had seriously considered the decision.

He walked to the door of the conference room and looked back at you one last time.

Then the conclusion is...... I refuse, Father Anthony, that all searches for the false Holy Grail should not be touched by humanity, especially the greed of those from your superiors. ”

His voice was filled with rage, rebuking everyone present.

"You don't know the cost of all this, and I've seen the witchers killed, devoured, mutilated and entrailed all over the ground, and all that you have today is bloody.

I will never compromise on that!"

Lorenzo opened his hand calmly and asked.

And then ...... Are you going to fight? Can you give me two swords first, after all, you guys look like a lot of people. ”

Lorenzo was talking nonsense, and he could hear the heavy breathing behind the door, the gentle rubbing of his fingers against the metal, the slow running steam engine hidden in the corner, and the whale chirping overhead.

The invincible Mr. Holmes will not fall, but the invincible Mr. Holmes may be killed here, not at the hands of demons, but by the inferiority of humans.

But just as Lorenzo was holding on to his death, Arthur spoke again.

"Then you can go, Lorenzo. ”

Anthony looked at Arthur with awe-inspiring eyes, not understanding why he had made such a decision.

"I agree with you, Lorenzo, someone needs to guard the red lines of humanity, just as a scavenger guards the purification mechanism, and it could not be more fitting that you should take care of that false chalice.

As for the dangers you are talking about. ”

Arthur looked at Anthony, Anthony never thought that his impotence would become like this, according to his script, Lorenzo, whose identity was revealed, would fall into hysterical madness, coupled with the threat of the pseudo-chalice, there is a high probability that the evangelical church can re-contain the pseudo-chalice, although this may have to share the fruit with the purification mechanism.

"According to you, Lorenzo has been carrying the False Grail for many years, and during that time he has been stable and safe, and of course, we can't confirm whether the False Grail is on him or not, can we?"

Everyone is aware of the existence of the False Grail, but it is unknown what it looks like, what its properties are, and so on.

"We in the Evangelical Church will not give up the false chalice. Anthony said toughly.

"Lorenzo is now part of the Purification Agency, and here is Old Dunling, Invig. ”

Arthur strapped Lorenzo to the chariot of the Purifier, and the closed door slowly opened.

Lorenzo took one last look at Anthony and then left without looking back.

The corridor was not long, on one side stood the knights of the Purifier, and on the other side were the Demon Hunters of the Demon Hunting Order, everyone looked at Lorenzo's expression with some surprise, it seemed that according to their thoughts, it should be an order in the conference room, and they rushed in and chopped Lorenzo to pieces.

But Lorenzo came out alive, his eyes swept over the faces of the witchers, remembering them in his mind, and Anthony would not stop there, maybe Lorenzo would reunite with them in some dark alley.

The figure disappeared at the end of the corridor, strolling through the deserted alley, the hideous madness on his face dissipated, his expression was like that of a vagabond after a hangover, he could no longer remember how he had left the heavily guarded building, and finally he could no longer hold on, he staggered, and fell down little by little against the wall.

Like a vicious monster, but at the moment his body is full of arrow feathers, Lorenzo's fraud is a good trick after all, and this time is no exception, he deceived Anthony and Arthur, but this time he couldn't fool himself.

Beyond the gloomy alley was the bustling street, and Lorenzo's strong will finally crumbled, his gray-blue eyes hollow, his head clutched, his face in agony reflected in the muddy water, until the moment the invincible Mr. Holmes fell.

042 doesn't exist, and neither does Lorenzo Holmes, all of this is just his own crazy imagination, and everything he insists on is a delusion.

Lorenzo curled up in a corner, like a lost dog.
