It's a terrifying answer, and I'm afraid no one expected it to be like this.

"I've learned about the Sacred Coffin, it's a big problem. ”

Arthur sighed, feeling stressed.

Lorenzo pushed his wheelchair and walked with Arthur through the massive underground tunnel, and after the hard work of the ventilation fan, the air here was much better, and although it had all kinds of strange and complicated smells, at least it was the gas that humans could breathe at the moment.

Overhead, there were dim lights that stretched along the railroad tracks to the end of the view, juxtaposed with intricate steam pipes, probably in disrepair, with condensation dripping down and wetting a large expanse of dirt.

"It's not just trouble, Arthur, and now the whole of Old Dunling is in danger. ”

Lorenzo remained as calm as he could.

Once the demon's erosion erupted in Chengnai, with the densely populated old Dunling, conventional firepower would not be able to suppress the demon's flood at all, or detonate the Furnace Pillar and send the entire old Dunling underground to solve the crisis of that magnitude.

"Hmm...... Do you know what is in that sacred coffin?"

After a long silence, Arthur asked slowly.

At this moment, he showed the ability of a leader, and all kinds of ideas and plans were rushing in his mind, and at the same time, he was constantly annoyed, why there was so much trouble in his own office.

"The demon, the last demon, according to Medanzo, is the demon with the concept of 'demon', you can understand that as long as you kill it, the concept of the demon no longer exists in the world, and the demon no longer exists. ”

Lorenzo replied that this was what Medanzo had said to him on the night of the Coming, and that the man who had been named an angel had always been so reliable and reassuring.

"So what exactly does it look like? Mr. Holmes, whether it's a human, or an object, or a demon, a thing should have its shape, right? ”

Arthur was not surprised by the theorem of the concept, as if he had expected it, and continued to ask.

Lorenzo was stunned, and then he realized that he had never thought about it.

"I don't know, the ritual that dealt with it was on God's Birthday, and only those witchers who took the name of angels were eligible to participate in that ceremony, and I was only guarding outside the church. ”

It was a grand execution, and the cold winter nights were scorched by the boiling churches.

"So, even you don't know what's in there, do you? ”

Lorenzo nodded silently.

"Then Mr. Holmes, why are you sure...... Why is the evangelical church sure that as long as the demon is killed, the chalice, the concept of the demon will disappear?"

"As far as I know, all the knowledge of demons in the Evangelical Church comes from and, right, that is, is it recorded in these two books?"

Arthur suddenly asked the question from a different angle, and he kept his absolute sanity as if he knew something.

Lorenzo didn't know how to answer for a moment, but Arthur continued.

"Mr. Holmes, in fact, the mysteries that the purifiers come into contact with are far more than you can imagine, and we will do a lot of experiments and controls to fight the demons, and even one of our goals is to make everything understandable. ”

"It's like erosion, it's like a demon, and we explain it with understandable technology and formulas, like a Geiger counter, a prefrontal lobectomy...... So to change the subject, Mr. Holmes, what do you think is the most important thing for the maintenance of a religion?"

Arthur looked directly at Lorenzo, obviously a man who was wounded and almost died, but his eyes were as sharp as a sword, as if he wanted to split all Lorenzo's confusion.

"...... of Faith"

"No, it's ignorance, only the ignorance at the bottom can support the myth full of loopholes, Mr. Holmes, think about it, remove those mysterious religious words, and you will find that the essence of all secret blood technology is science, pure science. ”

Arthur coughed hard, the pain on his body still tormenting him, but the lightning-like gaze grasped Lorenzo again, and Lorenzo didn't even have the courage to look away from him, so he could only look at him tightly.

"So what do we need to fight demons?"

"It's sanity, isn't it? ”

Arthur spoke quickly, his voice flat, but like a rapid thunderclap.

"But Mr. Holmes, believe in that ethereal god...... Is it really sanity?"

What a heretic word, Arthur was no longer burned at the stake by the Witcher Michael, hundreds of years ago he would have been escorted to the Cathedral of St. Narro, where the Pope himself would have lit the fire of punishment.

"Actually, Mr. Holmes, I can see that you are not a believer, and those pedantic beliefs have not suppressed your thoughts, which is why I am telling you this...... After all, those fanatics are really troublesome, and when Invig first popularized the steam engine, those people thought it was an artifact from the devil that sealed the poor soul to work for us. ”

Arthur laughed disdainfully.

"That's why we've never been in harmony with the Evangelical Church, and why the continuation of a religion requires the ignorance of the bottom, while we in Invig want to let the brilliance of technology envelop every land. ”

Arthur had already seen everything, Lorenzo was a soldier, and he was the general who controlled the whole situation.

"The old era has passed, the new era is unstoppable, and the Holy Evangelical Papal States can only defeat Invig as soon as possible if they want to regain control of the Western world, otherwise the progress of steam technology will only continue to defeat ignorance. ”

"Sometimes we have to thank Advent Night, if it wasn't for this event that hit the Evangelical Church hard, we would have gone to war with it in the last few years, war is inevitable. ”

"A World War...... Right?"

Lorenzo felt a little depressed.

"Don't think about it so much, Mr. Holmes, that's not your concern, now our primary purpose is to find out what Imam Lawrence is going to do, and where he is?"

Arthur motioned for Lorenzo to stop, and the two men stood inside the dimly lit tunnel, looking forward and backward in an endless amount of ash.

"The only thing that can fully support you now is the Purifier, Mr. Holmes, I think you have enough trust before, right? ”

He looked at Lorenzo and revealed his purpose.

"It's a win-win partnership, but only if I know what happened on Advent Night, can I? ”

There is a limit to the strength of one person, and without the assistance of the Purification Agency, Lorenzo would have been killed by Imam Lawrence, and he could not fight alone forever.

"But it has to do with the Holy Grail, which is extremely corrosive......"

Lorenzo shook his head, he was still a little reluctant to accept it, he refused.

It was Lorenzo's inner night, his revenge.

"It's possible for it to spread through 'words', right?"

Arthur directly interrupted Lorenzo's words, as the person in charge of the purification agency, Arthur knew no less about demons than Lorenzo.

"Then please sort out the sentence, Mr. Holmes, and omit the part that we are not allowed to hear. ”

Arthur stared at Lorenzo, they were of the same kind, everyone here was considered an outlaw, and lone wolves could become a pack of wolves when they came together.

At the end of the tunnel there was a whistling sound of iron, and the beast of steel was heading towards it, so the rails trembled slightly, and finally came to a slow stop with a raging howling wind.

The door of the steam subway opened, and after the steam dissipated, the gray-robed face was slowly revealed.

"Merlin is the greatest alchemist I've ever met, and you don't mind having an extra audience. ”

Arthur's voice flowed, and Merlin lifted his hood and smiled slightly at Lorenzo.
