Chapter 40 Tranquility

The gloomy cold rain continued, with thick clouds and fog covering this icy city. Pedestrians raised their heads and looked in the direction of Dunling Tower. They could see several iron whales circling slowly there, and there were

The red light was dimmed by the clouds and fog, and it was unclear what was happening on it.

In fact, pedestrians don't pay much attention to this. If they are not deliberately reminded, few people realize that there is such a forgotten tower in this city. If they continue to think about it, they will be surprised to find that this tower seems to have always been there.

Hidden in the clouds and mist, the true appearance has never been seen.

The world in the shadows and the world of ordinary people overlap in this city. Maybe you only need to walk into a dark alley at a bad moment to see a corner of another world and feel the ferocity and terror in it.

evil.

They exclude each other and overlap with each other.

Buscaro was holding an umbrella. Like other pedestrians, he looked up and then looked away.

This anomaly has not affected anyone and has no interference in the ordinary world, but to put it bluntly, there are still some.

"Damn crow!"

Something black fell on the umbrella, and Buscaro cursed angrily.

Crows of crows fled Dunling Tower, and like messengers of death, wandered around the city, making harsh noises, calling more people. Unfortunately, humans could not understand their words and only found them annoying.

Buscaro quickened his pace, walked onto the street, and merged with the crowd, becoming one of the slim ones.



The elevator slowly rose among the burning ruins. As an emergency passage, it was set up in the corner of the Broken Dome and had sufficient protection. Therefore, it also survived the fierce battle and became the path for those who came after.

"It's so bad. I never thought that this would be the first place to fall."

The fence door opened, and Kestrel walked out of it holding a weapon, followed by Eve and others.

Lorenzo's actions were indeed beyond everyone's expectations. No one expected that this guy would use such an amazing way to arrive at the battlefield. It was indeed very fast, but in this case, compared with Lorenzo, the Kestrel was almost

People's movements appear extremely slow.

Kestrel was already trying his best to reach the battlefield. After seeing Lorenzo ascend into the sky, he hijacked a carriage, kicked off the unlucky guy on it, and rushed here with a few people, but Kestrel

What was not clear was that as they cautiously advanced, the battle was already over.

"Heavy casualties."

Eve's face was heavy and she lowered her breathing. The two anonymous people behind her also entered the state. Sa Liangxi raised the gun, and Sa Liangxi pulled out the folding knife. Only Rhodes looked at a loss and was protected.

In the middle.

Rhodes was embarrassed. In fact, he didn't know why he was here.

The first time he confronted Roger, it was an unexpected situation and he had no chance to escape. But this time, Rhodes was supposed to stay in the office and watch the departure of several people, but he was so inexplicably captured.

Pulled into the car.

Of course, Rhodes also tried to jump out of the car in the middle, but he was pinned down by Sa Liangxi. What she said was, "In Jiuxia, we are called to share the blessings and share the hardships!"

He felt that it was difficult for him to understand the thoughts of this foreigner. Maybe this was the difference caused by different civilizations... or maybe his personality was like this.

Picking up the pistol tremblingly, Rhodes swallowed.

The high-ranking knight of the purification mechanism, the mysterious anonymous person from Jiuxia, seems to be the only mortal here, witnessing the remnants of this place.

"It looks like Lorenzo and Roger were having a great time playing each other."

After walking a few steps, Kestrel sighed. There were no corpses, and there were burned ashes everywhere, piled up in a thick layer, like an ancient house covered in dust.

"Are there any survivors?" Eve asked.

"Those who failed to evacuate probably didn't survive." Kestrel murmured.

Suddenly he stopped, looked behind him, and said to several people.

"Do you feel it?"

"Well, the intensity of erosion is intensifying," Shao Liangye nodded, took out the holy silver crown from his backpack and put it on his head.

Others also made the same move. Under the urgent efforts of the Mechanical Institute, the first batch of holy silver equipment had already been released and distributed. They were equipped with holy silver protection, followed by the injection of Flordelen potion.

.

While Rhodes was hesitating, Sa Liangxi gave him a shot. He thought that the girl was teasing him again, but she turned out to have a serious look on her face. It seemed that she could still distinguish the occasion.

"Someone activated the emergency gate. We were originally planning to isolate the demons with this thing, but it turned out to be really vulnerable."

The kestrel moved forward. This road should have been isolated by a heavy gate, but now there was a huge hole on it. There was still metal on the edge that had not yet cooled down, which could resist the protection of demons. It was so easily penetrated through the hole.

From the looks of it, the scene after that was even more tragic.

"They're tearing down the Broken Dome."

Eve whispered, and suddenly they all heard the commotion from above.

"What's going on? Is anyone alive?" Eve looked at Kestrel, who shook his head uncertainly. He dug through the ruins and found a path that could barely go up.

"Walk."

Kestrel gave the order and climbed up along the broken and collapsed stone slabs. The gap was very narrow and was caused by the aftermath of the battle. During the climb, the surroundings were shaking slightly.

Eve couldn't help but sigh that the impregnable broken dome had turned into a dangerous building in such a short period of time.

The cold wind rushed in and swept several people away, dissipating the residual heat below, revealing the withered and ruined dome.

"Arthur will cry..."

Kestrel murmured to himself.

This is the round table conference room. Shao Liangye and the others still have some impressions of this place. They held a meeting here a while ago, and now it has become part of the ruins. The tall dome is completely broken, and glass is scattered all over the floor.

Only a few burnt blackened and bent brackets were left, pointing straight to the sky.

The most heartbreaking thing is the huge round table standing among the ruins. It has already withstood the baptism of time and is full of scratches and holes, but now it is covered with a layer of scorch.

One-third of it has been burned into black coals, with a slight glimmer of light still remaining on it. Things that once commemorated glory have become dilapidated.

The roaring wind passed by, and a dark shadow passed over everyone's heads. Kestrel raised its head, and it was the familiar iron whale. When Kestrel and the others arrived at the Broken Dome, it also arrived here.

"It looks like we're a lot late."

Kestrel said, looking for the way up, looking for a passage in the twisted jungle.



The iron whale hovered above the dome, with ropes hanging down one after another. The soldiers slid to the ground, raised their guns, and controlled the scene. They were not the only ones. The hatch in the belly of the iron whale opened, and the steel rope pulled the rioters.

, drop them one by one.

"It looks completely destroyed."

Zuo Zhen looked down at the soldiers below. Their division of labor was very clear. Some were guarding the fallen Lorenzo, while others were guarding Roger's dead body.

This was just a corpse, but it still deserved their full vigilance.

"What did you just use? [Wangchuan]?"

Gawain asked from the side. He witnessed Zuo Zhen's shooting with his own eyes. Special bullets were fired from special firearms. Just one shot had a huge impact.

"No, no, no, [Wangchuan] is much more powerful than this," Zuo Zhen waved his hand and explained, "This is just a very ordinary antimemetic weapon, but its carrier is somewhat special, so it can carry more

More 'information' to achieve greater power."

Zuo Zhen said, flicking the handle of the gun and saying helplessly.

"It's a pity that this thing is very difficult to make. It requires special manual production and special weapons for shooting."

Gawain remained silent. His eyes were attracted by the bullet bag on Zuo Zhen's waist. It was filled with bullets with complicated workmanship. The writing on it was so small that he didn't know how many characters were engraved on it.

"Don't worry too much. It's not too bad now. Anyway, the moment of decisive battle is coming. If we lose, there will be no use in keeping these facilities."

Zuo Zhen said easily, and then continued, "Let the airship get closer, I want to confirm it myself."

"Yeah." Gawain nodded.

Zuo Zhen carried the slender falling star on his back, pulled up the rope, and jumped down after the iron whale got close to the dome.

This is an old guy who is even older than Arthur, but it seems that only his body is aging. Whether it is his mentality or actions, he looks extremely young, as if his soul has never changed.

Amidst the strong wind, Zuo Zhen accurately landed in a safe zone. He looked around and saw that there were blazing afterflames everywhere. Fortunately, it was cold enough here and it was raining lightly, which could contain the fire to a certain extent.

increase.

The old face frowned, and the remaining erosion made him feel uneasy. Even though his body was protected by several antimemes, he still picked up a Florund potion, injected it into his neck, and then injected it into the others.

people said.

"Process the scene quickly and then evacuate. You cannot stay here for a long time."

Zuo Zhen finally put away the smile on his face, became slightly serious, and his cloudy eyes became bright, like the eyes of an eagle.

After killing Roger, Lorenzo stopped with his big sword and half-knelt on the spot. The armor on his body fell off one by one as the secret blood subsided, and piled up next to him, with sharp edges and corners, as if

Blooming flowers.

The corruption of erosion, the scars of battle, and the baptism of antimemes.

The multiple pressures made Lorenzo unable to hold on any longer after finishing Roger. He seemed to have fainted and stood erect on the spot.

Zuo Zhen walked to his side and could clearly feel the remnants of corrosion on Lorenzo's body. It was simply terrifying. And with such power, he could only barely kill Roger's carrier with the help of Zuo Zhen. It was difficult to

Imagine how far Roger would go with all his strength.

"You have reached the edge of the abyss, Mr. Holmes."

Zuo Zhen whispered, not sure if Lorenzo could hear him.

Lorenzo's body has been stripped of its armor, but traces of alienation can still be seen on the body. The blood vessels are red. Even with the cover of the skin, they are still very clear, as if they are scarlet tattoos, all over Lorenzo.

body of.

Zuo Zhen picked off the falling star and loaded the bullet. He didn't know what he was thinking. He put the muzzle of the gun at the back of Lorenzo's head. As long as he touched the trigger lightly, the cold metal would penetrate his skull and beat his brain into pieces.

If the blood is stained, the consciousness will also be affected by powerful antimemes, and it may collapse.

Probably coming from Jiuxia's philosophy, in Jiuxia, the Anonymous people completely eliminated the existence of erosion and rejected any force related to erosion. Unlike the purification agencies that were learned and controlled, in Jiuxia, they really killed everyone.

.

"Don't you think it's a good choice to leave the future of the world to a monster like you?"

Zuo Zhen muttered to himself, and the cold wind lifted his gray hair, dancing wildly.

"Just like the story you told, the Keepers handed over the future to Roger and Adren, but now they have to become the terminators of the future."

With his finger flicking the trigger, Zuo Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Lorenzo's figure.

The Anonymous Nine Summers possess a large amount of [Forgotten River], and from their own shootings, it can be proved that the antimeme is indeed effective against Roger, plus the [Final Echo] carried by Lorenzo...

Maybe, maybe this can end without Lorenzo.

"After you killed Roger and Edlon, who will kill you?"

There was a noise while he was thinking. Zuo Zhen looked keenly in the direction of the sound, raised the muzzle of his gun, and accurately aimed at a slightly panicked face.

Kestrel, covered in ashes, climbed up from under the dome. Before he could see clearly, he suddenly noticed that Zuo Zhen was pointing the gun at him.

He had thought about dying at the hands of the enemy, but he had never thought about being killed by his own people. Kestrel immediately raised his hands and shouted.

"It's me! Kestrel!"

In the face of life and death, what kind of face do you want?

Zuo Zhen glanced at Kestrel, and then saw Shao Liangye, Shao Liangxi, coming out from behind him. He sighed helplessly, put away his firearm, and looked at Lorenzo with confusion.

"Maybe... we really need a demon."

He said and kicked Lorenzo, but Lorenzo didn't react at all. Zuo Zhen lowered his body, forcefully opened the surrounding hard material, and dragged Lorenzo out of the hard package with great effort.

"Come and help!"

Zuo Zhen shouted.

Seeing this scene, Kestrel thought that the battle must have been over. He couldn't help but feel glad that he didn't have to face a monster like Roger. Then he ran over all the way and assisted Zuo Zhen in carrying Lorenzo.

This guy had a lot of injuries on his body, some of which would have been fatal to a normal person, so there was no need for treatment. But Lorenzo was different, his flesh and blood slowly squirmed and healed on its own.

"So strong!"

Kestrel took Lorenzo from Zuo Zhen's shoulders and lifted him up. Looking at Zuo Zhen who was breathing steadily, he couldn't help praising the old guy for his good physique.

Zuo Zhen didn't say much. He turned to deal with Roger's body with a serious expression, as if facing a formidable enemy.
