Chapter 538 Monsters
"Pioneer, what exactly do you want to do?"
Lorenzo stood there, thinking about the figure who had just left.
I thought that the pioneer was going to prevent Lorenzo from leaving, but after attracting Lorenzo to stop, he left silently. It seemed that his actions were to promote this situation.
The scene where Lorenzo meets the epidemic doctor.
Gently shaking the staff sword, after several rounds of fighting and high temperature attack, even if it is made of cypress iron, this slender staff sword already looks full of scars. Lorenzo does not know how to deal with the high-intensity fight. Let's see how long it can last.
There is still a lot of ammunition under the coat, but Lorenzo doesn't think these things can kill the plague doctor. He once learned about the existence of the plague doctor in the purification agency. He is a mysterious scholar who is engaged in medicine against demons. Research.
It sounds like he is a pretty good guy, and he can even apply to join the purification agency and sing and dance in the ward with the crazy people at Black Mountain Hospital. But the problem is that as a scholar, the epidemic doctor has no bottom line.
He conducted cruel human experiments. After each experiment, he produced many experimental failures, and most of those failures became extremely dangerous monsters. He said that he was pursuing the truth, and these were just necessary sacrifices. , but the aftermath of each of his experiments threatens the survival of mankind.
"The flesh and blood of the Holy Grail, the legions of the Secret Blood...you must have made these, right? Lawrence doesn't have such ability."
Lorenzo watched his surroundings vigilantly. Maybe Lawrence also came here, hiding in a certain shadow, preparing to give himself a fatal blow.
"So, of course, mainly thanks to the Demon Hunting Order's "Revelation". Without the knowledge in it, it would take at least several decades for me to do this," the voice under the beak mask said briskly, "Oh, By the way, I have to thank Lawrence for his dedication to truth, most of my experiments were conducted on him."
Bursts of shuddering laughter sounded from under the bird's beak mask, as if there was a twisted, deformed and crazy soul hidden under the mask.
"He is really a perfect experiment. His will is always clear and he can share his feelings with me all the time. The most important thing is that it doesn't matter if it gets broken. He can just change to another body anyway."
The epidemic doctor was extremely excited at this moment. He came to this northern land with the purpose of pursuing the truth, but in fact he didn't know where the so-called truth actually existed until he met Zeou and heard the legend of Lonely Sea. He came here and saw Lorenzo.
Lorenzo's appearance here is the most powerful proof that the truth exists here.
"Plague doctor..."
Lorenzo did not act rashly. He could see a squirming bulge under the doctor's coat, as if something was crawling on his body. Lorenzo didn't know what it was, and with the doctor's current " Judging from "merits", this must be some kind of evil and abnormal thing.
He has never fought against the Plague Doctor and has no idea what the Plague Doctor's abilities are, but judging from his research results, it seems that the Plague Doctor has at least some power to awaken from the secret blood.
So have the epidemic doctors been sublimated?
This point is extremely critical at this moment. If the epidemic doctor also holds the power Gabriel, then he will be as difficult a guy as Lawrence. Not only is it difficult for Lorenzo to kill him, but there is also a Plural powers give everyone enough threats.
"You're here, I suppose Lawrence is here too? Interesting, what are you guys trying to do?"
The restlessness of the secret blood caused Lorenzo's body temperature to rise a lot, and his body was like a red-hot furnace with blazing fireworks rolling inside.
"Compared to me, what do you want to do here?"
The epidemic doctor did not answer Lorenzo's question, but asked him. The situation at the moment was very tense, and the two of them were tense, as if they would swing weapons at each other in the next second.
Judging from Lorenzo's vigilance towards Lawrence, the epidemic doctor can use the existence of Lawrence to intimidate Lorenzo. Until the existence of Lawrence is determined, Lorenzo's hands and feet will be restrained in the fight.
"On the eve of this world war, the top combat power of the purification organization did not prepare for the war, but came to such a remote place with such an excellent army."
As the doctor's words rang out, Lorenzo couldn't help but feel a little nervous, but on the surface he remained calm.
Sure enough, all the clues were connected together, and the origins of different forces also overlapped. Lorenzo didn't know where the epidemic doctor got the information, but what is certain is that he also realized that There is something at the end of this northern land.
Now in Journey to the Silent Sea, Lorenzo has a rival.
"Lawrence is not with you, is he?" Lorenzo said coldly.
"Why do you think so?"
The epidemic doctor approached slowly, his beak mask covering his expression. Under the mask, his scarlet face was not crazy. He was very rational and thinking about the next countermeasures.
"Lawrence is preparing for war. That's what he wants. In this situation, he dare not leave Gaulnaro." Lorenzo suddenly realized that he still knew Lawrence well. This feeling made him sick, "What's more important What’s more, if Lawrence were here, his style has always been ruthless, and I would probably have started a fight with him by now, and the entire Lingbing Bay would have been turned into a sea of ​​fire.”
"So, you came here alone."
The doctor stopped. Unexpectedly, Lorenzo saw through his bluff so quickly, and he smiled.
"What do you want? Epidemic doctor, the 'truth' hidden at the end of the north?"
Lorenzo suddenly put away his staff and sword, and the blazing white light in his eyes also faded a lot.
"I know what you want? We can work together."
A sudden silence enveloped the two of them, and it seemed that only Lorenzo and the plague doctor were left here. It was also at this time that Lorenzo was surprised to find that with the departure of the pioneer, the madmen of the Final Society also left.
The silence didn't last long, and a hoarse laugh sounded from under the beak mask.
"Cooperation?"
"Yes, cooperation, I need your abilities, and I have the information you need, it's a win-win situation."
Lorenzo took steps and walked slowly towards the doctor. His clear eyes looked directly at the doctor. No one knew what Lorenzo was thinking at this moment.
The distance between the two is getting closer and closer, so close that Lorenzo is fully capable of cutting off the head of the plague doctor with one sword, and so close that the plague doctor can also cut open Lorenzo's chest with his claws.
They all remained calm, but their hearts beat more and more fiercely, like an engine on the verge of running out of control, running rampant on the railroad tracks.
"You... still don't understand 'scholars' well enough, Mr. Holmes."
The movement of the epidemic doctor's body stopped, and he said without emotion.
Lorenzo didn't respond. He got close enough, his muscles tensed, and the staff and sword twisted into a dazzling pure white light due to the high-speed slashing. This light was so sharp that even if you looked directly at it, you would feel cut. .
There is no cooperation at all. Since a long time ago, the two of them have been in an endless confrontation.
"That's the truth! How could I possibly share its beauty with others!"
The epidemic doctor looked directly at the shuddering sword light, and his pupils turned into a ball of dirty blood as he looked directly at the brilliance.
The metal screamed loudly.
The slash twisted the plague doctor's body, and ferocious wounds exploded along his chest. Bones and scarlet muscles flew, but they froze in mid-air and failed to fall. Countless red threads could be seen pulling them. The broken fragments were pulled back into the distorted body in the next second.
Power Yanar.
In the surgical transformation of himself, the epidemic doctor used the biological "evolution" he understood to achieve the "sublimation" of the demon hunters, and obtained the almost immortal power from the secret blood, which was called Yanar the power of.
They are all homologous, whether it is evolution or sublimation, they all serve the same ultimate goal.
upgrade.
Time seems to have slowed down at this moment, everything has become so clear, every detail is displayed in front of your eyes, outlining a charming and strange picture.
The stick sword fell deeply into the body of the plague doctor, and countless dancing red threads gushed out along the deep part of the stick sword. They were entwined with metal and grew wantonly, but in the next instant the red thread danced wildly. It stagnated, and then the soft threads began to harden, and sharp spikes protruded on the surface.
It danced wildly again, turning into red thorns all over the sky, beating Lorenzo wildly, wrapping around his body, twisting hard, cutting flesh and flesh, crushing bones, until Lorenzo was wrapped in layers and squeezed. A foul-smelling mess of blood.
Behind the endless thorns, a blazing white fire rose in the cold pupils.
The thorns were restless. They tried to wrap up the day and isolate the sacred flame forever, but they couldn't do it. The thorns one after another were carbonized into pitch-black bodies and shattered into dust with residual warmth. Each time they collapsed, Cut off a thorn, and a beam of light penetrates the darkness until nothing can hinder it.
Day came.
The epidemic doctor let out a piercing cry, as if millions of people were wailing along with him. The sounds overlapped and made the ashes in the sky tremble.
The monster wrapped in thorns pushed Lorenzo away hard, and it rolled on the ground, trying to extinguish the fireworks on its body, but they seemed to be immortal, following its flesh and blood until the sharp claws flashed and killed it. The flesh and blood stained by the fire were cut off, and they were scattered on the ground. After being separated from the body, they were still struggling and squirming, until the fireworks completely devoured them and turned them into a pile of silent ashes.
The crisis is not over yet. Every time the epidemic doctor takes a breath, he can feel the pain in his chest that goes deep into the bone marrow. He sees a piece of red-hot metal broken into the injury in his chest. It nails all the thorns here, and the radiating The remaining heat continued to burn the immortal flesh and blood.
"Mr. Holmes, I really underestimated you."
The plague doctor coughed, and he never thought that he would be defeated just after the confrontation, but after thinking about it, Lorenzo is a guy who can slash with Lawrence, and a scholar like himself still can't stand shoulder to shoulder with these monsters.
It's just...it's just that Lorenzo has changed a little horribly.
Raising his head, Lorenzo held the broken sword and walked towards the doctor step by step. He also had injuries on his body, but they were not caused by the doctor, but what Lorenzo suffered when he detonated Power Michael in an instant. The backlash.
Whatever you ask for, there must be a price.
This powerful burning order, when it cannot be controlled, will also affect the releaser himself.
Half of Lorenzo's clothes were burned away, leaving only some tattered strips wrapped around his body. There were also burn marks on his arms, but under the rising of secret blood, the dead flesh and blood was gradually peeling off and reborn. The skin is covered with naked scarlet.
The broken staff and sword also burned red. It was precisely because of the out-of-control detonation of Power Michael that no matter how strong the metal was, it could not withstand such destruction.
As for the wooden hilts, Lorenzo applied a gentle force and they collapsed into ashes, and the red-hot metal fell to the ground.
Lorenzo's power at this moment was beyond the knowledge of the doctor. The doctor's hand reached into the hideous wound, and with great effort he pulled out the broken metal and threw it aside.
"You've become stronger again, Mr. Holmes, and what's the price?"
The epidemic doctor stood up staggeringly, scarlet blood streaks wrapped around him, and he soon recovered. Under the torn clothes was scarlet flesh exposed to the air.
Lorenzo did not respond. He raised the Winchester and fired at the Plague Doctor. Facing Mighty Yanar, Lorenzo needed to completely burn the Plague Doctor to ashes to prevent his regeneration.
Shooting is not very effective, but it can indeed interfere with the self-healing of epidemic doctors and worsen the wound.
"What kind of guys did the old order train?"
The heavy projectile hit the epidemic doctor like a heavy punch. He stumbled and tried hard to stabilize his balance and prevent himself from falling.
Blood blurred his vision, and the Lorenzo in front of him gradually overlapped with another figure, cold and depressing, as if he was a weird thing that shouldn't exist in this world.
"Lawrence..."
The epidemic doctor called softly, and then laughed wildly.
"The secret blood has begun to erode you, Mr. Holmes. I have seen such signs on Lawrence."
The epidemic doctor has seen such a scene, and Lawrence was also like this at the beginning. He obtained the certificate of sublimation, and thus lost the foundation of being a human being.
"You are sliding into an abyss, Mr. Holmes, and there is no turning back."
Lorenzo's pace finally stopped. He looked at the epidemic doctor, pondered for a while, and then spoke slowly.
"I've been thinking about what I'm sticking to, Epidemic Doctor."
The distance was close enough. As long as Lorenzo wanted to, he could mobilize the terrifying temperature again and drag the Plague Doctor into the blazing sea of ​​​​fire, but he was not in a hurry. Lorenzo knew very well that this would not kill the Plague Doctor.
“Then I had a rude awakening in Maruri.”
Lorenzo's voice was very soft, as if he was telling an ulterior secret.
"Becoming a monster for what I want... This price is too cheap."
In an instant, dense sparks enveloped the plague doctor, and all the substances that could be ignited were burning. They wailed and turned into flying ashes. Foehn winds arose, pushing everything around them sideways.
