Joey looked at Lorenzo in surprise. For a moment, he seemed to feel the wind blowing in the cold room, and the coldness penetrated his body like a sharp sword, spreading to his muscles and blood vessels.
"Yes, Demon Hunter, you don't know because you don't have enough authority. In fact, in essence, we Demon Hunters are rational demons."
Lorenzo said and stretched out his hand, the blue blood vessels looming under the skin.
"To put it bluntly, the secret blood technology of the cult is to transplant the power of demons to humans. However, regardless of whether the brain or internal organs are transplanted, there will be a rejection reaction. If the experimenter is lucky, he will die in pain. If he is unlucky, he will become the food of the demon's flesh and blood and become more alienated.
Horrible monster."
"Finally, the cult discovered a way to purify blood in "Revelations" and transplanted the demon's blood into the human body. This was much more stable than the previous experiment, and then developed the secret blood technology."
Lorenzo said simply.
"Essentially, demon hunters are demons that have not yet lost control. We are called qualified ones. We can tolerate the existence of secret blood to a certain extent and maintain a delicate balance with it, without conflicting with the original body or being eroded by the secret blood.
.”
This is the reason for the warning from the Silver Bolt. Under the secret blood technology, the secret blood in the demon hunter's body remains silent for a long time. It will only awaken when the demon hunter activates it. However, depending on the intensity of the awakening, it will
It will bring strength but also huge erosion.
The secret blood awakening level of 30% is a critical value for a demon hunter. Once this level is exceeded, the balance between human will and the erosion of demons will be broken. At that time, Ed's secret blood awakening exceeded 60
%. After crossing that critical value, the witcher has already entered the abyss.
The silver bolt will begin to melt completely at that moment, and the secret blood will drag the human will and completely demonize it, just like a meteor, the most brilliant moment is also the moment of destruction.
Joey tried his best to keep his calm, remembering every word Lorenzo said.
"The demons we just talked about that remain rational are the degraded versions of demon hunters. They may have been corroded or became demons for other reasons, but they cannot maintain a balance with...the demon part.
.”
"The balance between humanity and demons."
"They may still be able to maintain their sanity and act as monsters, but their erosion continues, and it is only a matter of time before they become completely crazy monsters."
"Although it is labeled with various mythological beliefs, this thing makes sense biologically to a certain extent."
Lorenzo also gradually understood these things after taking a few university classes in Old Dunling. Demon hunters are all orphans. They were adopted and trained by the Evangelical Church since childhood and finally joined the Demon Hunting Order. Every child has a certain knowledge before becoming a demon hunter.
There is one hurdle, which is the [Baptism of Divine Favor] and some complicated special training, as well as the final implantation of secret blood.
Lorenzo doesn't have much memory about the mysterious [Baptism of God's Favor]. Anyway, after that, Lorenzo's memory was filled with many strange memories for no apparent reason. Other people who experienced the ceremony also had the same reaction.
Implanting the secret blood and becoming a demon hunter will be their coming-of-age ceremony at the age of seventeen. They have received the theological education of the church from childhood to adulthood. Those priests attribute everything that cannot be explained to the children to faith, even after implanting the secret blood.
The same is true for death. If you ask, it means that your faith in God is not enough and you are unfaithful to the church.
At that time, Lorenzo survived after being implanted with the secret blood, and he was still complacent about it, thinking that his loyalty to God was indeed a lesson to the world, but after the Night of Holy Advent, it all seemed so ridiculous.
"It's incredible."
After a long time, Joey could only say this. He looked very tired, just like a student who has received a lot of knowledge in an instant and can't think about it at all.
Joey once thought that the Original Sin Armor was already a forbidden power, binding the demon's power with steel and controlling it. However, after truly understanding the Demon Hunter, he felt that the Original Sin Armor was nothing.
This group of lunatics usurped a power that did not belong to them, a power that was truly forbidden.
"There are still many incredible things. The Demon Hunting Order is far more complicated than you think, and I heard from Arthur that the new pope has already begun to rebuild the Demon Hunting Order."
Thinking of this, Lorenzo couldn't help but feel a little pressure. The reconstruction of the Demon Hunting Order was real, and the Temple of Stasis, which had been dormant for six years and came back online, was the best proof.
"Now, back to the present, demons who maintain their sanity are very dangerous, but the monitoring capabilities and support speed of your purification agency are very fast, so you don't have to worry too much."
Thinking of Lancelot who came with the Iron Snake, Lorenzo truly felt the power of this industrial country. One system after another was interconnected, and finally served an ultimate goal.
This is not what the city looks like when it is operating at full capacity. It is difficult for Lorenzo to imagine the scene where the roar of machinery pierces his eardrums.
"That's true, but there is a problem with our monitoring. We can only detect the demon when it moves, and sometimes we can't even detect it."
"How is it possible? That large Geiger counter array is much stronger than the metaphysical instructions of the Demon Hunting Order."
After yesterday's handling of the case, Joey roughly explained to Lorenzo what the Peeper system was. At that time, Lorenzo was shocked by this. The Demon Hunter Order's method of dealing with this was the Demon Hunter.
Those highly perceptive demon hunters serve as investigators, such as the demon hunters of the Shang Da Feng branch who have certain precognitive abilities.
"But here's the problem. It's difficult for the demon to cause the reform index to change before it attacks, which makes it impossible for us to track it. If it weren't for this reason, we could have hunted it down long ago. It..."
Joey thought for a while and saw that Lorenzo suddenly understood how to explain him, and said quickly.
"Just like you, the Geiger Indexer cannot detect your reaction before you activate the secret blood."
Lorenzo nodded as he listened, stretched out his hand and was about to pick up the bottle and take another sip to warm himself, but suddenly stopped in mid-air, with a solemn look on his face.
"Wait a minute, you said you're like me."
"Yes, the reform index did not change at all before taking action..."
Joey continued, but as if he realized something, he and Lorenzo looked at each other. From each other's cold eyes, the two of them could be sure that the other's thoughts were the same as their own.
Lorenzo said nothing, got up and put on his clothes. Winchester filled the ammunition and stuck it under his windbreaker. Then he picked up the cane next to the door. It was a new custom-made one by someone, but this
Once the staff and sword were plated with a layer of holy silver.
"I think your purification agency should be open 24 hours a day, right?"
Opening the door, Lorenzo signaled to Joey that this case was far from over.
