Ember Gun

  Chapter 41 The Mystery of Blood

  It is a long history, hidden in the dark side of the world. Everyone who understands its meaning will remain silent, and this secret will only be passed on when they leave.

  "The Gospel Church was the first to fight against demons. To be precise, it was a secret organization under the Gospel Church."

  Lorenzo began to tell about the history that should have been forgotten, his eyes trembled, and he vaguely saw the people who raised torches to expose themselves to the night.

"In the beginning, human beings could not fight against demons. The only way to defeat them was to rely on human lives. That was the darkest and most difficult era. We could only shiver behind the fortress, or sacrifice our kind to quell the aggression of demons. This is a **** age, until one day someone said that he had received the will of God."

  Eve was attracted by Lorenzo's story.

"God's will?"

  Lorenzo nodded and continued, like all myths and grotesques, there is always one person who pioneered everything.

"He said he got the will of God, saying that there is a sacredness that can get rid of demons in the north, so he called a group of people who believed his words. Those people should be the first believers in the world. They passed through the dark land. I left the kingdom by boat, and after an unknown number of years, I went to the north covered by frost and set foot on the deserted ice field."

"Many years later, everyone forgot about them, and the only people who remembered thought they were dead on the road, but suddenly those people came back one day, and they carried the bronze jars sealed with gold and holy silver on them. The craftsmanship far surpassed that of the technology at that time, as if the gods and ghosts were all imprisoned on the metal, they were hideous and guarded the knowledge in it.

It contains books written in ancient languages. Except for the person who is under the will of God, only those believers who are advancing with him can understand those books. After many years, they finally translated the book. . "

  With Lorenzo’s whisper, the connection with the weird became deeper and deeper, and Eve had a very strange feeling, as if she had come to a new world.

There was a melodious piano sound from the street, and low prayers echoed in this room. At this time, the two realized that there was an urban church nearby. It seemed that there was some activity today. The pipe organ played a brilliant repertoire, the disciples. Muttering prayers.

"They named the book "The Gospel", and the gospel church appeared. It was built on seven hills. The place of the seven hills rose from the barren land. Then came the expansion of faith, the holy gospel. The Papal State appears on the territory of that world."

  This is the cause of the emergence of the ancient group, with the color of mythology and epic, for a while, Eve has forgotten his abnormality.

"Of course I don’t believe this. It’s just a story, anyone can make up, but it’s certain that the "Gospel" is not that simple, and there are actually two books. The first is the "Gospel" that everyone knows. It preaches God and faith, while the other book is only circulated within the church."

   picked up a cigarette, Lorenzo smoked it hard, and the smoke rose. This is where the secrets are really involved.

"The other book's name is "Revelation", just as "The Gospel" established the gospel church, and in the dark, "Revelation" founded the hunting sect. There is no **** or belief. What is in that book is only about demons. knowledge."

That is the most secretive knowledge involving the depths of the world, but now it is so casually spoken by Lorenzo. It is clearly the wealth obtained by countless people with blood, but it seems worthless in Lorenzo's mouth. .

"After having faith, the gospel church integrated most of the people at that time and established a kingdom of God belonging to people in the dark world, but this was not enough, and it was not enough to fight against demons. So the believers at that time believed in God’s The title opened the "Revelation" and established the Demon Hunting Order."

  "In the face of the threat of death, human beings are far more terrifying than we perceive."

  Lorenzo said and laughed again, with a hint of irony.

   "Abandoned ethics and morality, there is no bottom line, just to live."

   "...what did you do?"

  Eve felt a little bit bad, her body was very cold, it seemed that there were snakes entwining her, and the cold scales were scratching her skin.

   "If you want to kill a demon, you must first become a demon."

It was a bell-like speech hitting Eve’s heart. She felt the feeling of deepening the connection, the unexplainable but clearly visible weird feeling, what is more for her in this world, like A **** machine, she was just an ordinary operator before, but now more functions are open to it.

"The monsters are very weird. Their vitality is surprisingly stubborn. They don’t need too much food. They can easily tear off the armor. They also have the ability to erode our will. We can’t kill them even if we burn them with a sword. Compared with them, human beings are so fragile..."

  Eve stared at Lorenzo, her breathing hurried uncontrollably, and her heartbeat echoed clearly in her ears.

  The door opened, the dark door.

   "You...you..."

  Eve guessed something, but she didn't dare to say it. An emotion called fear rose from the bottom of her heart, like a word. She felt that when she said that terrible fact, that fact would become a reality.

  Lorenzo smiled slightly, as if he didn't expect Eve to react so quickly, he said.

  "This technique is called ‘secret blood’."

"We kill those demons, extract blood from them through a series of complex processes called alchemy, and then consume it. It can make us as powerful as demons, but full of uncontrollability. According to the records of the Order At first, the people who consumed secret blood were disposable items, and their sanity could only be maintained for a few minutes, and then they fell completely into darkness and became a member of the demons."

"Although the side effects are huge, at least we won one time from the hands of the demon. The next is the long experimental phase. The subject was locked in an iron cage. Dozens of people pointed at him with iron spears. Will be killed immediately..."

   "This...it's crazy!"

  Just listening to Lorenzo's story, Eve can feel the dark despair, she is like a frightened little animal lying on the sofa.

   "Can you accept this?"

   "Compared with the fact that humans can no longer live in fear, these costs are really too cheap."

  Lorenzo said lightly, that no one can judge the dark history at will.

"This kind of experiment lasted for hundreds of years, until the first generation of stable bodies appeared. They were able to control the power of demons but they were able to maintain their sense. They were qualified for blood secretion and were the first group of demons hunters. They were humans. For the first time, he has the power to fight head-on with monsters."

   Raising his hand, the wound on Lorenzo's arm was slowly healing, and he looked at Eve with a smile.

  "Sabo died only because he was not a qualified person. His body could not bear the pressure of secret blood. Unlike you, Eve, I guess you became a qualified person a long time ago, but you don't even know it."

  This is the reason Lorenzo believes that Eve is also a qualified person with secret blood, but she has never realized this after living so long.

"how is this possible!"

   Eve screamed, she didn't know how she could get involved with this kind of thing. The memories of the past kept looking back in front of her eyes. It was so familiar with the past, but at this moment it was covered with a layer of illusion.

"This is the only result, just like a mathematical formula. No matter how outrageous the result is, the formula will not deceive. It is the only correct result. Just like you, you have secret blood. You are still alive and healthy. For so long, if it weren't for everything tonight, your secret blood might be immersed in your body forever, and you wouldn't wake up until the day you die."

  The great detective talked about his reasoning, like a cruel destiny.

  "You must have been in contact with it at some point in the past, and since then you have established a connection with the darkness..."

He said, but suddenly stopped. The cold sweat was flowing slowly. Lorenzo raised his head and looked at the patterned ceiling. His eyes seemed to penetrate the substance. When he reached the sky, he tried to see it. Man, the one who controls fate.

It seems that there is some unknown existence. It may be a **** or something else. It controls the thin lines of fate in the dark. Eve has established a connection with the darkness long ago, and the darkness has never let her go. It's just that the time has been postponed to now.

To some extent, it is not that Lorenzo found Eve and started this crazy night, but that long-term connection made Eve be found by him, just like the destined Kungunil, how many years ago he did not know it. It has been thrown out with Eve's fate, and it runs through this crazy night today.

  This is a destiny.

  　 went out for an interview. There will be two more changes. I will try my best.
