Chapter 52: Thermite

The melodious whistle interrupted the conversation between the shrike and the blue jade, and looking at the stunning side face, the shrike lowered his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking.

The woman in front of you is so mysterious, you think you know her, but it's just a beautiful disguise, just like her code name, Blue Emerald, the gorgeous kingfisher that soars through the forest, it will not be caught by anyone, it is free, like the wind.

"Looks like our guests have arrived. ”

Shrike looked out the window, in the direction the whistle was coming from.

"Guest?"

Blue Jade didn't know who would be a guest in this damn place, cold and dilapidated with tons of weapons and soldiers, even criminals wouldn't want to touch it.

"It's my good detective, Lorenzo Holmes, who was in the car before the kestrel radioed. ”

Looking back at the blue jade, the shrike said.

"Is that Lorenzo Holmes I learned?" asked Emerald Blue.

Shrike nodded, affirming Blue Jade's words.

The thought of this detective shrike gave him a headache, and he didn't want to reveal his identity other than that of the "gang boss", after all, Lorenzo was too smart, and that alone was enough for him to guess a lot.

The task that followed was so important, Lorenzo was a dangerous uncontrollable creature for the Shrike, a sharp double-edged sword that would cut himself if he didn't use it well.

"So what are you going to do with him next?"

Blue Jade looked behind the shrike, in the direction the Radiance was coming from.

"I'll leave it to you, my advice is to catch him and knock him unconscious immediately, and then wrap the rope around and throw it wherever you want, although you can't kill him, you can toss him for a while. ”

He has a deep understanding of Lorenzo's difficult shrike, and since he quietly infiltrated the shrike after learning to act, he has been extremely wary of Lorenzo.

"Why me?"

Blue Emerald didn't understand.

"Quite simply, I don't want to see that neurotic. The shrike looked disgusted.

"Hmm...... Actually, I think you kind of have to meet him. ”

Looking out the window behind Shrike, Blue Jade raised her hand and pointed in the direction of the darkness.

As if he realized something, he turned his head and saw a burning python galloping along the railroad tracks in the darkness of the night, and the blazing white fireworks were dragged by the wind for an incomparably long time, like a burning brush on the earth.

What's even more hellish than that is that the burning train is still honking its whistle, like a merry Thomas.

"Everybody's moving!"

As the shrike roared in the communication channel, all the soldiers on the abandoned platform moved, and as the Radiance approached, the Geiger counter began to rattle and the distance between the two narrowed, and the sound became more and more furious, and finally turned into a long scream.

......

"Looks like we're in place. ”

Looking at the glimmer of light in the darkness, the electric lights on the iron helmets of the soldiers, the kestrel was right, there was indeed a mysterious force here, and now they were ready to attack.

"No...... We have to go back!"

Looking at the burning carriage, the demons that kept pouring up and then died, the kestrel remembered something, and looked a little panicked.

"What's the matter? With me, they can't get any better. ”

Lorenzo raised his blade and pointed at the burning carriage in front of him, confident, but it was clear that the kestrel was not talking about that, he shouted.

"I'm referring to them! they're carrying the new weapons of the Mechanics, and we'll be beaten into a sieve if we stand on the roof of the car!"

The words did not fall, as the light of the day hit the train, it was a strong light from the highest part of the platform, and under the light, the twisted demon could not be hidden.

Everyone had a slight sense of suffocation at that moment, it was a dense group of ants, white flames still burning on their bodies, and they let out a greedy roar towards the warm flesh creatures.

"Fire!"

It was an order from the commander Shrike.

So all the soldiers raised their new weapons, to be precise, against demons.

Wherever the stars rose, there was a dense burst of gunfire, and hundreds of crimson projectiles carried a blazing trail under the night sky, coming directly towards this place after a short flight.

Lorenzo barely had time to think, he grabbed the kestrel and the two of them jumped out of the carriage, by which time a large number of projectiles had already arrived.

It was a flaming bullet that burned violently when it hit the demon's body, and unlike Lorenzo's mysterious pure flame, it seemed to be a simple flame, but it could reach extreme heat in an instant.

The people in the carriage also realized the danger, the door opened, and the two of them climbed in without the slightest pause, and then the barrage of bullets poured out like a rain of fire, falling like acid rain, and then leaving a molten red crater on the solid steel.

Eve in the carriage gripped the handrail on the side, and all she could hear was a shrill whistling, followed by countless crashes from beyond the iron plates of the carriage, one after the other, as if countless craftsmen were pounding the carriage.

Suddenly, the temperature in the carriage began to heat up, and everyone noticed the heat.

On the platform not far away, heavily armed soldiers opened fire on the train, and after the attack on the carriages was useless, the demons shifted their targets to the soldiers on the platform, who roared along the railroad but died on the road under the dense rain of fire, and even if one was lucky enough to cross the line, they would be killed by the shriek's silver-white spear.

The roars of demons mingled with the sound of gunfire, like a battlefield in hell.

Everywhere the fiery projectile went, whether it was steel or a body, it dissolved in the extreme heat.

This is the power of technology, and if there are all the gods of technology, the soldiers are praying to him every time they pull the trigger.

"So what kind of weapon is that?"

In the carriage, Lorenzo wiped the sweat from his forehead, and the whole person felt like he was in the aftermath of the catastrophe, the burning bullet could even melt steel, and the consequences would be unimaginable once it was hit.

"A work from the Mechanics Institute, thermite rifles. ”

The kestrel also gasped, the air in the carriage was more hot than ever, the already confined space, and the burning body of the car had already begun to coma.

"You can understand it as a thermite that can be fired, the muzzle is equipped with a trigger, and the thermite reaction is completed during the firing, and a large amount of heat energy can be released directly when hitting the target, even heavy armor can melt through. ”

The history of human science and technology is a history of the evolution of weapons, which has been continuously improved and iterated in terms of lethality.

"Damn, is that why you won the Glorious War?"

What a hell weapon, Lorenzo didn't know what to say for a while, he knew that the pressure of war would force a country to progress, but he didn't expect it to progress so quickly.

"No, we only use it to kill demons. ”

In the darkness, the sound of a kestrel sounded, and a metal object pressed against Lorenzo's chest.

"Mr. Holmes, I hope you will cooperate in the future. ”

The brothers, who were born and died together just now, jumped back at such a moment, or he was ready to do it from the beginning.

"It's so ruthless, you'd die without me. ”

"One yard to one yard, I'll intercede for you...... At least it will make you feel more comfortable when you are supervised. ”

The situation is changing rapidly.

"So what are you going to do? Do you think a normal weapon can kill me?"

He no longer hid anything from the time Lorenzo ignited the Pure Flame, and the Witcher's glow was released in the night, banishing the demon from all else, his identity had been revealed, but there was nothing left to hide.

"I know, but you're also too confident, is it because of the Demon Hunter Order's secret blood technology?"

The kestrel stared at Lorenzo's reaction in the dark, he thought Lorenzo would have some emotional fluctuations, anger or shock, but nothing, he kept his absolute sanity.

"Looks like you know a lot. ”

He didn't care about the revealing of his identity in the slightest.

"Yes, unlike the Order, we don't have the miraculous secret blood technology, so we can only work hard to develop the technology, and this is our product, even without the secret blood, we can still fight the demons. ”

"Are you showing off?"

"No, I just want you to be honest. ”

Lorenzo did not resist, he remained subtle silent, as if thinking about something, until the girl stood up with the revolver in her hand.

"Looks like we've got a dangerous balance. ”

Eve combed her sweat-soaked hair back to her head and lifted her silver-white revolver against the back of the kestrel's head.

In her opinion, the car was full of inexplicable people, without the emblem of Invig's army, but with deadly munitions, and they also had a connection to demons, which made Eve wary.

After that crazy night, she was like a young deer in the forest, constantly being hunted down by a group of hunters from the darkness. Except for Lorenzo, Eve won't trust anyone for a short time.

"So can we put our guns down and have a good talk?"

At this time, Lorenzo said helplessly, the temperature in the carriage had not yet dropped, and every word felt exhausting.

"You can actually go outside and talk. ”

Another voice rang out, and the heavy iron door opened from the outside, and the icy wind poured in from it, making the sweaty people shiver.

The man was unmasked, his expression was grim, and he stood outside the gate with a weapon in hand, and behind him was the burning battlefield.

Lorenzo paused for a moment, then said with some scorn.

"I always thought you were wearing a mask because you were too ugly, so it's okay to look at it!"

Shrike didn't seem in the mood to talk to Lorenzo, and he whispered through gritted teeth.

"I really don't want to see you here, Lorenzo Holmes. ”
