Ember Gun

  Chapter 331 Wildness

Accompanied by a sharp pain in his mind, the dusty door in the memory palace flashed in front of Lorenzo's eyes. In a daze, Lorenzo heard the sound of the rubbing of the stone, and the old dust fell, and there was a dazzling light behind the gap. The light came on.

   was almost here, Lorenzo stretched out his hand, he was about to touch the open door, but in a moment everything was calm again, sweat flowed across his cheeks, he sat on the chair, his hands firmly grasped the armrest.

  The machine is still roaring, but from the constantly flashing red light and the humming Geiger counter in the ear, the result of this test looks a bit bad.

  "It's really interesting. According to the test results, you are now in the third stage of erosion, the third stage that is irreversible. According to this, you should become a demon now." Abigail said.

  The medical staff removed the electrodes from the back of Lorenzo's head and disinfected his wounds.

   "What kind of existence are you demon hunters? It's so peculiar. Sometimes I even have a strange guess."

Abigail watched Lorenzo carefully. At this moment, the man was divided into countless pieces of flesh in his eyes. His eyes seemed to pass through the skin and he could see the organs hidden behind the bones. .

  "Are you interested in speaking?"

   Lorenzo asked, he was still wary of all this, but he also believed that these people might really help him find the answer.

   "You are no longer a human being, to be more precise than a human being, or... evolution."

   "Evolution?"

"Yes, I can think of this, and I still think of it from one of our enemies. He is called an epidemic doctor. The specific name is not clear and his whereabouts are strange. But every appearance is accompanied by the death of large-scale personnel, and those people basically It was used by him to do experiments... He seems to be studying demons too.

The   purification agency almost captured him, but still let him escape, but we searched for some of his experimental notes. This theory is based on his notes. "

  Abigail recalled those, and then said to Lorenzo.

   "He believes that demons are a kind of evolution. They are so powerful and superior to human beings, and they are also the inevitable evolution of human beings in the next stage."

   "Lost reason? Evolve into a monster?" Lorenzo couldn't believe it.

  "Who knows? Even now, we still don't know the whole picture of the monster, don't we? Who can guarantee that such a strange creature is really irrational? Or maybe the monster is also sensible, but we have not discovered all this yet."

  Listening to Abigail's words, Watson's face flashed in Lorenzo's mind.

   "The sensible... the monster."

   "And Mr. Lorenzo Holmes, in what form does the false Holy Grail exist on your body?" Abigail asked again.

  "Come on, try to think about it. The so-called scientific research is the coexistence of thinking and action. Please think about it carefully. In what form does the unknown pseudo-Holy Grail exist in your body?"

   "The form of existence, what do you think the pseudo-Holy Grail will be?" Lorenzo asked.

   "It's up to you. Obviously, there are no ‘extra’ parts in your body." Abigail walked around Lorenzo and looked at him carefully.

  "Is the pseudo-Holy Grail an artifact? Or is it some kind of alchemy matrix, or something more special?"

  "It...may be a concept...a memetic pollution, but as long as I don’t pass it on, it will remain trapped in my consciousness..."

  Lorenzo tried to think about those, but all that was a vain blank, he forgot.

"In other words, the pseudo-Holy Grail does not have a specific physical form, right? Let's assume it as a kind of nihility, something invisible and inaccessible," Abigail said. "But it has always been by your side, closely following..."

   "Like a ghost..."

  Lorenzo said in a ghostly manner, and then he raised his head, with a little astonishment in his eyes.

   "Perhaps, this is another way of existence for demons, ghosts...or so called spirit bodies."

   "The spirit body that carries the will."

  Lorenzo repeated it again, what he touched faintly, but he couldn't think of it, too much information rushed through his mind, as if to tear his brain apart.

  Like a cognitohazard, he realized too much in a short time and his will was unable to maintain.

  Yes... But what kind of information is this? It's just a new understanding of demons.

   "Spirit body?"

  Abigail said uncertainly.

   "Spirit body, spirit, will, after all, these things all seem to represent the same thing."

  As a rational scholar, she never believes in the theory of ghosts and gods, but at this moment, she seems to have thought of something about the form of doubting the existence of the pseudo-Holy Grail.

   "Perhaps... do humans really have souls? They are like ghosts in the flesh and blood."

  ……

   "Arthur, you need to come here."

  Someone is knocking on the door. It is a woman's voice, which sounds like blue jade. Now she is temporarily Arthur's deputy and is responsible for assisting Arthur.

   "Wait for a moment."

   Arthur heard Lan Jade’s voice and was about to leave, but before leaving he glanced at Ovis and asked him.

   "I have no problem, it is safe here, at least for now." Ovis said.

  Arthur is still a little worried. Although the research area is heavily guarded, they are dealing with demons after all, and anything **** can happen.

   "Well, wait for me."

   Arthur said that he stuffed the pistol into the gap of the wheelchair, then opened the door and left.

  In the gap between the closed door, the blue jade outside the door saw Ovis inside this room. He was like a glass doll sitting in a wheelchair.

  "Who is he?" Lan Jade asked curiously.

  Blue Jade knows the information blockade inside the cleansing agency. She wouldn't know if she knew it, but she was still a little curious that the child who looked so poor was here.

This is the scientific research area of ​​the Black Mountain Hospital. Few patients who can come here can leave alive, and most of these people are knights who cleanse institutions. They will be sent here only when the erosion cannot be reversed. For the final contribution to the study of monsters, this is also regarded as a cemetery by the knights.

  Joy was fortunate to be here. After experiencing hellish treatment, he left, but returned here after many years. Lan Jade was curious about what happened to this boy that led him to come here.

  Not only that, although there is only one side, Lan Jade is faintly familiar with it, as if he has seen this boy.

  "You don't have the right to know now, Blue Jade." Arthur said, "Go ahead, what happened."

   "You know when you see her." Lan Jade said.

   "Um... well, I probably guessed it."

   Arthur sighed helplessly and rubbed his temples vigorously. This busy feeling was really uncomfortable.

  ……

   "We caught her at the elevator on the ground. She seems to be trying to sneak into the research area." Lan Jade said to Arthur.

  According to the rules of cleansing organs, someone who does this will definitely inevitably be served by the criminal law, but it is a pity that the girl in the room is Eve Phoenix.

  Although on the surface she appeared to be very calm, but Arthur knew what his daughter was. At this moment, she must be thinking of some strange countermeasures.

  This girl is born with a wild nature, and Arthur tries his best to tame all this in the acquired education, but with the encounter with the monster, the wild nature cannot be suppressed.

   "You violated our agreement, Eve, if you don't continue to investigate these, I will let you be a detective." Arthur said.

  "Encounters such things as monsters are beyond my control, and I am locked here because of your orders?"

  Eve didn't feel like doing anything wrong. In fact, she was not wrong at all in her eyes. She just wanted to know the secrets hidden by Arthur.

  As humans devour the forbidden fruit brought about by snakes, humans have an uncontrollable desire, just like a stubborn thirst for knowledge.

In the days at the Black Mountain Hospital, Eve felt like she was approaching something. It was an indescribable feeling. Under this unfamiliar hospital, Eve actually vaguely felt like when she had been here before, and Strange dreams became more frequent.

  In the vague picture, there is a woman wailing and crying, she is in pain, and when the pain reaches its extreme, sharp claws penetrated through her abdomen, and blood was spread everywhere.

  Eve felt very upset, but she was also inexplicably happy. It seemed that before she knew it, she was about to find the answer to all of this.

  "Your observation period is still a few days away. After it is over, you can leave." Arthur said, "and then I will send you out of here."

   "Where to go?" Eve felt something was wrong.

   "A place without demons, probably."

  Arthur didn't want to say anything more. With a series of monsters' incidents, their unkind father-daughter relationship became worse. He stood up and motioned to the doctors to take Eve back.

The girl’s face changed. She knew very well what Arthur was going to do. He was going to send himself to a damned island, learn the hapless etiquette, marry a man he didn’t know, and give birth to a few with Phoenix. The **** little devil, being dominated by others for a lifetime... Although he thinks this is good for him.

   "You bastard!"

  She wanted to beat Arthur angrily, but was stopped by Lan Jade in time.

  Closed the iron door to isolate the girl's curse. Arthur's eyes were full of exhaustion, and his head was slightly lowered but soon the gray robe came into view.

  The alchemist looked at the embarrassed Arthur, his stiff face pulled out a seemingly smiling arc.

  "This is the file you need, the last record of the Ranger plan."

   "To be honest, if I can, I really don't want to see these again."

   Arthur took the file and pulled out a few pages at will. Familiar information came into view.

  He is regarded as the final product of the Ranger plan. He has witnessed the plan from its inception to being sealed in the filing cabinet. It can be said that Arthur is one of the few people who are most familiar with this thing, and now it has been re-unblocked in order to solve the king's curse.

  Looking at the somewhat yellowed paper, there is a line of familiar names on it.

   "I thought she would spend her life ordinary."

  He muttered the name softly, a familiar and warm name.

   "Eve Phoenix."
