As the erosion continued to rise, the antimemes covering the entire city finally could no longer hold up and collapsed one after another. The overflowing madness began to spread. They crawled out of the darkness and transformed into hateful monsters one after another.
The world of common sense and the world of madness overlapped. The monsters shouted and marched forward. While killing, they continued to spread the erosion and watched the mortals grow fangs and claws in grief.
Fortunately, all of this is still under control. With multiple preparations from the Purification Agency and Anonymous, the rioters and Ufo Tu easily dealt with the rising demons, and so far have not been able to allow them to form a terrifying demon tide.
They use outposts everywhere as strongholds to fight against demons and protect citizens. Currently, the Geiger counter is still stable, and even the antimemetic weapons have not been activated. Everything does not look that bad.
In the Winchester office, Lorenzo sat expressionlessly on the sofa. He could easily feel the surging erosion and could clearly distinguish the roar coming from the wind.
But he didn't seem to have any intention of taking action. He just picked up a nail sword casually and gently rubbed its edge with his fingers, feeling the sharpness.
"What are you waiting for? Lorenzo!"
Shao Liangye seemed a little anxious. The demon had appeared in the city, and he wanted to go out immediately to fight against the powerful enemy.
Lorenzo didn't respond, his eyes were lowered, thinking about something.
The storm was getting stronger and stronger, and just when Shao Liangye couldn't help but want to leave, Lorenzo stopped him.
"Now is not the time to take action, Shao Liangye." Lorenzo's voice was cold, with a chill.
"When was that?"
Shao Liangye asked back, his anonymous identity prevented him from sitting idly by and ignoring this.
"The ones wandering the streets now are just ordinary demons. Even if they are in groups, they are just ordinary demons. Unless there are demons who can show their power, we can just leave these to them for now."
Lorenzo tried hard to calm down his restlessness. In fact, he was more eager to go out and fight than Shao Liangye. After all, this was an instinct derived from the blood of a demon hunter.
"You must learn to wait, Shao Liangye, and wait for the big fish to appear."
"Then you are going to stay here and wait for Roger Cruz to show up?" Shao Liangye asked.
"No, I'm actually waiting for news from Zuo Zhen."
Lorenzo picked up the communicator and waved it in front of Shao Liangye's eyes.
"What we are facing is an enemy who is almost omniscient. No matter what the secret is, there is no possibility of it being hidden in front of him... The death row plan will be exposed sooner or later, no, maybe it has already been exposed."
Lorenzo continued to talk according to his own thoughts.
"Maybe Roger Cruz is running there non-stop right now."
"That……"
Shao Liangye felt panic in his heart. The death row was their core and the last refuge. Once it was captured, no one would survive.
"Then what are we waiting for? Waiting for the death row to be attacked?" Shao Liangye asked.
Lorenzo did not respond, but narrowed his eyes slightly. Soon he took out the black cube and played with it in his hands.
"I always feel something is wrong, Shao Liangye."
His eyes were blurred, like a sleeping fox in the grass in the afternoon.
"Our plan will be exposed sooner or later. With Roger's ability, the Holy Silver Crown and Antimeme can only slightly hinder him, so sooner or later the death row will appear in front of him. He will find that refuge and run all the way.
past."
"What do you want to say?" Shao Liangye asked.
"Haven't you noticed the weirdness in it? Why did we build such a shelter on this battlefield? Is it really just to lure Roger there and make him relax his vigilance?"
Lorenzo tightened his grip on the black cube.
"Besides, compared to these baits, I think the one that is truly worthy of his desperate efforts should be the [Final Echo] in my hand. This is the only weapon that can threaten the Unspeakable."
Shao Liangye held his breath. After the restlessness, he calmed down. As Lorenzo told, the details that had not been noticed, or in other words, were deliberately forgotten, were revealed one by one, and he also discovered these loopholes.
But why didn’t I think of this before? Or...
"Under the [Gap] invasion, the death row will be exposed sooner or later, it's just a matter of time. We know this, and Roger will also know this. In other words, everything we do now is in vain."
Lorenzo raised his eyebrows suddenly and continued.
"As the planners, it is impossible for us not to be aware of this, unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless we do this on purpose, deliberately execute this plan that is full of loopholes, and execute it blindly and stubbornly, in order to make Roger 100% convinced that what we are doing is our real plan.
"
Lorenzo's eyes fell on Shao Liangye. As time went by and the incident progressed, the strange uneasiness in Lorenzo's heart became more and more intense, as if the tide covering his consciousness receded, causing more people to be affected.
Buried things come to light again.
"Shao Liangye, you said there is no such possibility. What we really execute is not death row. Death row is just a disguise."
Shao Liangye froze in place. He understood what Lorenzo meant, but he was not sure. This was really...
"You're not sure, are you? After all, this all seems so illusory... So why do you anonymous people dare to believe in the creed unconditionally? Obviously it is something that is difficult to falsify."
Lorenzo slowly raised the black cube and spoke out his astonishing hypothesis.
"We are all experts, experts in hunting monsters. Experts will not make mistakes unless we do it on purpose.
Yes, that's it. Roger is a nearly omniscient enemy. We can't hide the secret. All we can do is misinterpret the secret, twist its original appearance and turn it into the so-called 'death row'. And for the perfection of the plan, we
Maybe even use antimemetics to erase everyone's memories.
None of us, all of us, can stay aloof."
The more Lorenzo told the story, the brighter his eyes became. He found that everything made a lot more sense when viewed this way.
Everything they did was to protect the real plan. What they seemed to be desperately protecting now was just a bait deliberately placed for Roger.
Like a perfect scam, they not only deceived Roger, but even themselves.
"But this is just your assumption, Lorenzo." Shao Liangye said.
"Yes, suppose there is another premise for this plan, which is that even if we notice these loopholes after losing our memory, we must still persist in executing it, otherwise all our efforts will be in vain.
So why did we when we made this plan believe that we would still stubbornly and blindly carry out all this after losing our memory?"
Lorenzo asked rhetorically.
Shao Liangye's voice was hoarse. Although he didn't want to think in this direction, he still spoke with difficulty.
"Creed, we are all tools and gears, we just need to execute them unconditionally."
The anonymous creed and the regulations for purging the agency are what support them to believe wholeheartedly and execute blindly and stubbornly. Relying on all of this, they have carried out this plan full of loopholes until now.
"not only that."
Lorenzo said, he held the sharp nail sword in front of him and whispered.
"Remember? Who proposed the death row plan?"
Shao Liangye was stunned for a few seconds, and then said slowly.
"It's you, Lorenzo Holmes."
Lorenzo nodded in agreement, raised his nail sword, and looked at the face reflected on the shiny mirror. That was himself, Lorenzo Holmes.
"Yes, I am the maker, I am the expert, I will not make mistakes unless it is intentional."
Lorenzo showed a strange smile, if he had made such a plan by himself...
Shao Liangye completely lost his emotions and his mind went blank. If it was what Lorenzo said, he only felt confused and scared.
All the plans are smoke bombs, old Dun Ling, death row, all-out war against purge agencies... All of these are smoke bombs, just to make Roger believe that this is the last counterattack of mankind. For this reason, not only
He deceived Roger, and also deceived mankind himself.
That's why they worked so hard to build Old Dunling into a strong fortress to prepare for the final decisive battle.
But this is all fake, just one of various disguises.
"No, this is still your one-sided statement, Lorenzo. If the death row plan is fake, what is the real plan?" Shao Liangye asked.
"I have no idea."
Lorenzo shook his head calmly.
"you do not know!"
"Yes, I don't know, and no one will know. Deceive the enemy and deceive yourself. Only in this way can we avoid Roger's prying eyes."
Lorenzo tried not to let himself think any more, lest he think of more possibilities.
"Don't be anxious, Shao Liangye, just wait until the moment the trigger clicks."
Lorenzo said meaningfully. He put the communicator aside and was ready to receive orders at all times. There were nail swords around him.
The word trigger was of great significance to Shao Liangye. Under Lorenzo's words, he began to tremble slightly. He, who had always been firm, also felt vaguely suspicious.
"Why...are you so confident? Lorenzo, even if what you said is well-founded, we are facing Roger Cruz. If we are not careful, we will lose everything."
Shao Liangye's voice was hoarse. It wasn't that he didn't want to believe what Lorenzo said, but the pressure brought by Roger was too heavy. He didn't dare to gamble, and he didn't have the courage to gamble.
"Because I have faced similar enemies. At that time, I was not so powerful. I didn't even know how to control the [Gap]. But my enemy is much stronger than me. He can not only use the [Gap], but also control the [Gap]."
His skills are also a hundred times stronger than mine."
Lorenzo recalled with a wry smile on his face.
"I can't beat him in a head-on confrontation, and I can't hide his conspiracy from him, just like Roger."
"And after that?"
Shao Liangye was a little curious. If the enemy was really so powerful, then Lorenzo would have died long ago. But he was still alive now, right in front of his eyes, so the outcome was self-evident.
"After that? I killed him. I guess I killed him."
Lorenzo seemed a little confused. Many times he was not sure whether Lawrence was dead or alive. He was different from himself. That guy had turned into a complete monster. Even Lorenzo had difficulty understanding his existence.
"It's the same invincible enemy. If I can kill him, I can also kill Roger Cruz."
Lorenzo stood up and walked to Shao Liangye. There was a strange aura surrounding him that Shao Liangye couldn't place.
"If you don't dare to gamble, then you might as well believe me and put all your chips on me."
"Do you win the bet?" Shao Liangye asked.
"Of course, I will win and I must win."
Lorenzo looked out the window at the chaotic white light. He was thinking about conspiracies and tricks, holding the [Final Echo] tightly in his pocket. No matter whether his guess was correct or wrong, Lorenzo had a comeback.
Ability.
Overturn this gambling table.
"But you need to warm up before the decisive battle," Lorenzo added, "Are you interested in hunting down some monsters with me that they can't kill?"
A blazing storm rolled up in his eyes. Lorenzo could sense that more and more demons were emerging in this city. Most of them were ordinary demons. For Lorenzo, there were almost no demons.
Any threat, but among them, some more bizarre existences gradually appeared.
The riot suppressor fired wildly at the end of the rain and fog. With its firepower, the flesh and blood body should have been easily torn apart. Even if the demon had a strong self-healing ability, the end would be the same.
But after the rain and fog, there were bursts of iron cries, as if the projectiles were bombarded on some solid armor, and the splashing fire kept getting closer, until a sharp giant blade cut through the rain curtain.
There was only a sound of metal tearing, and the giant blade left a deep dent in the armor of the riot suppressor. The riot suppressor was pushed back several meters, and he reluctantly raised his head. The demon in iron armor
Get out of the rain and fog.
"You are fully prepared, everyone in the purge agency."
The man stepped on the riot suppressor, walked up his armor, and stepped on its visor, hiding his sight.
"Let's make the party more lively."
Roger raised his hand as he spoke, and bits of blood flowed down his palm and dripped into the armor at his feet.
You can feel the vibration coming from under your feet, like an iron coffin. The deceased imprisoned in it is struggling hard, trying to resist the arrival of death.
But soon his struggle stopped, and faint fireworks ignited, overflowing from the gaps in the armor. The fire gradually became more intense, and the riot suppressor stood up again, but this time its armor was burning with fireworks, like a cannon.
Terrible ghost.
Roger stretched out his hand and waved it vigorously, as if he was conducting a grand piece of music. Blood continuously overflowed from his body and merged into the water under his feet, followed by erosion.
He is on the edge of the end of sublimation, and the purest secret blood is rolling in his body.
The demons made harsh noises, and they were tempted by it. They rushed around Roger in groups, licking the red water with bloodthirsty. As the erosion intensified, they also moved towards more.
The evil direction is alienating.
Amidst the scarlet blood, the demon army stood upright under the rain and fog.
