Ember Gun

  Chapter 470 The Progress of the World

  "Start the first wake-up attempt."

Merlin’s voice rang from the communicator. At the top of the dome, behind the thick explosion-proof glass, Galahad was watching these quietly. Since driving the black angel out of control, he died in the memory of many people. However, in fact, Galahad not only did not die, but because of his own state, he became the shadow of the cleansing organ.

   "This time we may find out the root of the monster, are you excited?"

  Galahad asked, a calm voice in the dimness behind him.

   "How can I not be excited, if it weren't for fear of losing my mind, I would like to shout out excitedly now."

As Arthur said, he came to Galahad and sat on a chair beside him. The scenery here was good. It was the highest point of the workshop, enough to overlook the whole situation, but because it was too high, they couldn’t see the details below. Clear, but this is enough, they don't care about the process, and now they only long for the result of all this.

   "I am not young anymore, otherwise, you will find that I am now driving the original sin armor and become one of them."

   Arthur folded his hands on his chest, frowning.

  There was a burst of electric noise in the communicator. Soon after, another voice connected to the channel and the voice sounded.

  "Arthur, an order from the Platinum Palace, the queen asked us to stop the'questioning'."

  The sound came from the Broken Dome. Without the Broken Dome, Knight Commander Gareth was responsible for everything.

   "The experiment has already started, Gareth, we can't stop." Arthur responded coldly.

   "But...what about the queen?"

Gareth made a difficult time for a while. The cleansing agency directly belonged to the Victorian royal family, and the Victorian royal family only had the voice of Queen Victoria. Her order was absolute for everyone, but now Arthur's behavior is undoubtedly in Disobey the order.

   "Just say it started, the workshop is completely locked, unless the experiment is over, otherwise no one can interfere with the experiment... Don't be so nervous, Gareth, the queen is not a monster, she can't even get out of the platinum palace."

  Arthur has always respected the Queen, but now his attitude is extremely contemptuous.

   "Well, see you in the Broken Dome, Gareth."

   Arthur pressed the switch as he spoke, and Gareth’s voice disappeared into the noisy electric current.

   "What are you doing, Arthur, it's not like something you can do."

  Galahad didn't speak slowly until now. He looked at Arthur's profile. The old guy's eyes were introverted, and no one could guess what he was thinking.

   "Queen...something is hiding from us, Galahad."

   Arthur said suddenly in the silence, he turned his head, his expression serious.

  "Do you know? Actually I was cheated by the queen."

   "What are you talking about?" Galahad couldn't understand him.

"Ivar’s rescue plan, indeed, this action was mixed with the goals of many people, such as I secretly dispatched Lorenzo to eradicate the choir, but our goals are smoke bombs and let Ivar die in Gallunalo. , Detonating the war is the real goal, and I am completely unaware of these, and I only learned of these after the incident."

  Arthur only felt a cloud covering the sky above the old Dunling.

  "The queen kept the secret of all of us, and united the Viking nations to start the war."

  "Is there any problem with this?" Galahad couldn't understand.

"There is really no problem. While suppressing enemy countries and assisting in the raids of the Viking countries, it can also open the route to the north for us, but...I don't know how to describe this, Galahad, I feel there is something invisible. Things are entrenched around us, they are affecting the direction of the world little by little, and the queen is one of them."

   Arthur threw out a document as he spoke.

   "What is this?" Galahad asked, taking the file.

"The record of the experiment application of the last permanent pump technology chief. Because of the red news incident, we searched through the archives and found this document from the dusty corner. It is not important, and it is not the same as other experiment application records. Putting it together, it may be this unimportant characteristic of itself that allowed this document to survive instead of being destroyed by an unknown force."

  Arthur took a deep breath. Knowing too much is a burden for a person. You will enjoy this secret exclusively, and you will be afraid of knowing it.

  "William has applied for more in-depth research on monsters. According to the report, he has obtained a lot of useful information. It can be said that the current understanding of monsters by the decontamination agency is largely based on his research.

  But these applications were all rejected. It can be seen from the seal that these applications were approved within the cleaning agency, but they were rejected by higher powers. "

  Galahad looked through the document with dignified eyes. He saw the familiar seal. The red paint on it had become dim due to the erosion of the years, but the figure drawn by it was still clearly visible.

  "This is the seal of the Victorian royal family...the Queen rejected these applications."

"Yes, there is and only she has this kind of power. You must know that William is not a lunatic, he is a sane scholar, he must have found something, but was rejected by the queen... The queen is hiding something and not letting him continue Follow up, which led to the experiment that was not allowed."

  Arthur sighed.

   "If I changed to me, I would probably do the same."

  "Have you shaken your loyalty to the queen?" Galahad asked.

  Arthur smiled and shook his head.

  "I have never been loyal to the queen, I am just loyal to this country. Galahad, in fact, I have found more than that. Let's talk about conspiracy theories. These are things we can find. What about the things we haven't found?"

  Galahad was taken aback, his heart was cold. In this rigorous and complicated mechanical city, there are too many places that cannot be illuminated, just like the furnace pillar system rooted in the ground.

Under the long renewal and iteration, the Pillar of the Furnace is like a tree root spreading underground, and the steel body is constantly advancing deeper. The drawings accumulated over the years are as large as a library, and it is like a shadow. There are too many secrets in the maze below.

"According to the Dunling plan, the old Dunling will fully enter the electrical age a few years ago, but now it is still only implemented in some areas, and even the research and development of technology is restricted. You know, Galahad, At the time, it was not the nobles and merchants who really stopped this plan. As long as the queen was willing, the entire country was a machine in her hands. She wanted to implement this power, no one would refuse, but in the end it disappeared like this..."

  "Do you think the queen is leading the course of this world?"

  Galahad still remembers the idea of ​​the Dunling Plan. Once it succeeds, electricity will replace steam, and the whole world will enter a new era.

"To be precise, it is'them'. From the perspective of absolute interests, compared with suppressing our hostile countries, opening up the technological gap, continuing to carry out the project of survivorship, and maintaining the status quo of peace is the best solution, but she does not have such a solution. Do."

   Arthur looked down at the experimental field, from which the workshop looked like a huge deep well.

   "Did someone say something to you?"

"Well, Lorenzo came to me not long ago. He felt that he had been tricked by the Queen and vowed to relieve her. I comforted him, and there was news from the Queen. She said she would explain this. But only Lorenzo can go. I became suspicious at that time. Obviously, the incident is already very clear. What kind of reason will the queen give to justify?"

   "Why does she control the process?"

"maybe."

  There are only Galahad and Arthur in this dim observation room, and there is no third party. The communication channel was previously closed by Arthur, and the conversation between them will not be known to a third party.

  In the loneliness, Galahad's eyes changed slightly.

   "Whether what you say is true or false, you are against the Queen's order by doing so."

  "I know, but don’t worry, the war is coming. As the Duke of the Meritorious Family, Arthur who cleans up the institution, in this case no one can replace me. She needs me."

  Arthur said his reliance.

   "I never thought you were so suspicious."

   "This is the vigilance, Galahad, never forget what we are fighting against."

  Arthur looked at him seriously.

  "We are fighting demons. These evil and unknowable nightmares, even the extremely powerful Demon Hunting Order will collapse overnight, let alone us?"

   "Then if you are wrong, or even say you are lying to me, what will separate me?" Galahad asked.

   "Then you should stand up."

   Arthur said calmly, without a trace of emotion.

  "Be cruel to the enemy, but also cruel to yourself.

The reason why I told you is because of your identity, Galahad, you are now a member of the scavenger force, as a backup plan when the cleansing organs collapse, you are a sharp sword hanging above the cleansing organs, if I If it is wrong, it is up to you to solve and replace us, but if it is the error of the Platinum Palace, I hope that at the critical moment, you can be in a critical position. "

   Galahad was stunned. He didn't expect Arthur to say that this was just for this, he needed to let it continue, and it was not a platinum palace nor a cleansing mechanism, but a struggle with demons.

  After experiencing these things, Arthur suspected the Platinum Palace, and now what he has to do is to alert the scavengers.

   "The scavengers will pay attention to this, and we will try our best to avoid the'Holy Night' incident from happening within us."

   "Look at the experiment then, they have started."

   cast his eyes to the bottom of the workshop. During the time the two were talking, the first awakening attempt had begun. Lorenzo stood in front of William, his hands hanging uncomfortably beside him.

  "Are you sure you want to do this?"

  Lorenzo was still a little at a loss. He looked at Merlin on the side and responded with those hollow eyes.

   "OK, hurry up, Lorenzo, don't dawdle, don't you want to know what William has discovered?"

   "I...Of course I did."

  Lorenzo did not go on, he turned to look at William, the old guy was drooling and looking at himself with dementia.

To be honest, this should be the first time Lorenzo has taken the initiative to alienate others and turn others into that abominable monster. It is difficult for him to describe his current mood, as if he has become a part of evil, its sharp claws and teeth. .

  【Secret Blood Awakens 7%】

  Without much words, a blazing flame rose under the calm eyes like the sea, just like a burst of flame, which made the entire sea surface burn and boil, and finally turned into pure daylight.

  This firework is not warm, on the contrary, it is extremely cold, like ice that cannot be melted, and the cold chill fills everyone's heart in an instant.

  The light reflected on William's face, attracting his gaze like a rare gemstone, and his turbid eyes met Lorenzo little by little.

  "Do you want to invade his [Gap]?"

  Lorenzo looked at William and couldn't help but think.

   "As long as he invades his [Gap], those so-called secrets will be revealed in front of my eyes, but...do I really want to do this?"

  Watson’s warning flashed before his eyes, and the scarlet handwriting revealed great fear and worry.

  The pure white flames continued to rise, condensing into solid light.

   "The Geiger Index is beginning to rise."

   "The erosion is gradually spreading, open the sluice."

  "The sluice is opened and the neutralization liquid is started to be poured."

  The sound traveled through the channel, and the sword dancers and lancers above the dome became vigilant. They both detected the index change. Lorenzo below was rising up the secret blood little by little, causing the erosion to spread out from the body.

  At the same time, the light rain above the head also became violent, and the neutralizing liquid was poured down the channel of the well wall, and they finally gathered in the groove on the ground, like a shrinking river.

  "How is William's status?"

   asked Merlin, who was standing not far away.

  "Heart rate fluctuates greatly...He is now being affected by erosion. He is afraid, afraid..."

  The note spit out from the machine by the medical staff responded to Merlin.

   "Ah! Ah!"

  William made a meaningless panic. He was like a child who was still learning. He could not say a complete word, but his old face was now completely twisted together, like a hideous evil spirit.

The cold sweat slipped from his neck, and he struggled hard, but his body was firmly locked on the electric chair by the leather. These resistances were useless, and not far in front of him, the evil spirit-like guy was standing up. Leaning towards him little by little.

  It was like the oncoming scorching sun. He was burning and setting off a suffocating heat wave. As Lorenzo approached, William felt that he could barely catch his breath, followed by the phantom pain from his body.

  He felt that he was burning, being scorched by the scorching sun, and pain came from every part of his body, wherever the light was shining, it burned miserably until it turned into ashes.

   "It's time to wake up, William."

  Lorenzo approached his face and said to the horrified eyes.

  The next moment the secret blood broke through the threshold, and almost solidified erosion swept the entire workshop.
