The night was shrouded in Old Turin again, and the moonlight could only reveal its faint brightness in the gloom, lightening the heavy lead ash slightly, and the huge steel whale in the icy cold wind swam through the clouds in the night sky, dazzling The turbid mist was stirred by the strong light.
Higgs walks on the misty streets. When it comes to winter, the weather in Old Turin is extremely humid and cold. Huge steam gushes from underground pipes. The warm gas that has not yet cooled brings a thin mist of water. The cold is nowhere to be avoided. .
His cheeks were a little thin, swaying like a lost soul.
In fact, this was not his way home. Higgs couldn’t stand the restlessness under the watch of the street lamp, and there seemed to be another voice whispering in his ear, urging him into the abyss of sin.
“Damn! Damn!”
Higgs suddenly scolded, and his pale and sick face showed an intolerable ferociousness. Angrily kicked the street lamp aside and made waves of iron screams. Then Higgs seemed to calm down, and he was reflected in the shallow sewage under his feet. That ugly face.
Then for a moment he was stunned. Some could not believe that the person in the water would be himself, and then a painful cry came from his throat. He stumbled to the corner of the street, sat directly beside the garbage dump, and grasped harder. The hair curled up.
Pedestrians passing by did not look at it, because there are many people like Higgs. Every day in Old Turin, many people fall under the pressure. Some people choose to leave this suffocating city, and some choose to fall, lower city The district became their new home.
Higgs slowly raised his head in the darkness, his eyes full of exhaustion, like a dying person.
He was in pain, very painful.
In fact, unlike Lorenzo’s idea, Higgs not at all has worked overtime in the factory during this period of time. He was fired from the factory a long time ago because he was found by the Boss to smoke hallucinogen.
The factory is trying to win the production of the new steam tram, and there are several other factories competing with it. In order to securely win this list, these factories have engaged in several secret battles, and many of them sent reporters to sneak into the factory to check. The working environment of workers, as well as some other aspects, were subsequently suppressed in public opinion.
Boss was obviously scared. In order not to be caught, he directly fired Higgs. After all, the official attitude towards hallucinogen was very bad. He didn’t want to lose such a large amount of business because of this trivial matter.
So Higgs was unemployed, just because he smoked hallucinogen, it was obvious that every mechanic in the factory was using it.
Those mechanics feel that this thing will allow them to step into the paradise environment inside, and it is the best relief product in the high temperature depression of the factory.
He couldn’t believe all this at first. Higgs tried to stay, but he was ruthlessly driven out by the security guards. He spent a long time on the street and finally returned to Cork Street muddleheaded.
This is a big gap. He was still a magnificent mechanic at the moment, but he fell on the street at the next moment. Higgs also tried to apply for employment elsewhere, but no one needs a mechanic who sucks hallucinogen, let alone This is Old Turin, where the first steam engine in the world was born. The rare mechanic in the outside world can be seen everywhere.
This is really a bad day.
Higgs came from a bad background. He was born into a family that is not wealthy. In order to satisfy his mechanical dream, Higgs worked in a bakery for a long time and used all his savings to exchange for a train ticket to Old Turin.
He still remembers the feeling at that time. Higgs stuck his head out of the car window and looked at the scenery that was constantly swept behind him. There was no sadness of leaving home in his heart, but uncontrollable ecstasy.
Higgs left. At that time, in his opinion, the world was only divided into two parts. One was the town where he had lived since childhood, and New World was outside the train tracks. Wild dogs happily ran to the inexplicable unknown, for all the rest He didn’t care.
There is nothing to be sad about. Although Higgs had been on the train for several days at the time, he did not seem to be tired because he knew that the distance between him and Old Turin was constantly changing every second in the past. Close.
It’s coming soon, where I am fascinated.
The hazy fog condensed on the window bars above his head, and the unsolidified water droplets fell. The cold touch made Higgs awake a bit, but when he was sober, he remembered Mrs. Van Lude’s face again.
Whenever I think of that fierce and kind face, Higgs has never experienced pain.
He was like a wild dog ramming in 4 places. Mrs. Van Lude took him in when he was freezing and shaking in the alley. At that time, she was not as irritable as she is now, so he became the earliest tenant of 121A Cork Street.
Mrs. Van Lude is like a family to Higgs. Although she is not very kind, she has made Higgs. Without her, Higgs would have frozen to death in one night.
Therefore, every time he faces Mrs. Van Lude, Higgs has an unspeakable sense of guilt, just like he has let her down. He doesn’t want Mrs. Van Lude to discover this, he even thinks about whether to move away from Cork. Street, goodbye is better than standing in front of her in shame.
Slowly standing up, Higgs continued to walk, suddenly looking up into the strange street scene, it seems that Higgs came to a strange place in the muddleheaded, but he has lived in Old Turin for a long time, he also I didn’t expect that one day I would feel strange to this city.
The tall buildings stand in great numbers, the dark night looks like countless monster minions, and the street lights on the streets are different from what you are familiar with. Under the deformed development of Old Turin, there are actually many areas that are not connected to electricity. Here too, all the gas lamps, in the mist not far away, there are lighters walking forward, and then one after another light comes on as he walks by.
The night is getting dark, but he still doesn’t want to go home. He hates Mrs. Van Lude’s stern kindness. He seldom feels the tenderness of others. Compared with the parents who drove him out of the house, she is in Higgs’ heart. Of light.
But he didn’t want this light because he was disappointed, walking in confusion, huge buildings protruding from the mist inside, and little rays of light flickering in it, Higgs was slightly startled, and then heard the faint hymn.
This is a church.
Irvine also acknowledged allegiance to the powerful sacred Papal State a few hundred years ago. Through the white-robed missionaries and the knights wielding swords, Evangelion Church also entered the world of Irvine, although in recent times Over the years, Irvine has forgotten its existence in a targeted manner, but there are still many churches in Old Turin today, but they are only hidden by the late-built buildings. You can only hear the faint hymns and prayers, but you cannot find the building. The presence.
What surprised Higgs was that the church was not hidden in the slightest. It just appeared between the streets so generously. Behind the steel door rail is the illuminated door of the church with countless gargoyles. Guarding this sacred place.
Higgs seems to remember what this place is. This is the Saint Mary cathedral. In the eastern district, it used to be the place where the believer of the Evangelion Church gathered. However, as the believer gradually decreased, the place became lonely, and even the name was lost. Forget, Higgs also read about this story in the book.
The whole church is built with white stone, the pure color is pure, even in the dark, it is not contaminated with the slightest filth, many people have forgotten its name, but instead call it this remarkable feature.
The white church.
As Higgs was thinking about it, the iron door suddenly opened. A man who seemed to be a priest was standing not far away looking at him with a smile. His hair was gray and his face was full of wrinkles. It was clear that in the middle of the winter night, Higgs He actually felt a little warmth under his gaze, just like sunshine.
“Excuse me…”
“You must be very confused, right, do you need me to listen for you?”
Without waiting for Higgs to say anything, the priest said first, then he turned sideways, as if inviting Higgs, the door of the White Church slowly opened.
Higgs wanted to refuse. He did not believe in any so-called gods. As a mechanic, he believed in absolute reason and reality. He believed that machinery was omnipotent to the extreme, so omnipotent machinery and gods also had What’s the difference?
He thought so, but for a moment he didn’t refuse to come out, as if he had been given some instructions, he was nodded in a ghostly manner, and then stepped into the white church inside.
……
“So where are we going?”
Lorenzo was sitting on the carriage, and the scenery outside the window flew away. At this moment, they were galloping on the streets of Old Turin. The galloping wind stirred up the mist, like a ghost running wild.
“Cleansing agency headquarters, Mr. Holmes, if your speculation is true, Old Turin will now face a threat that has never been seen before.”
Compared to Lorenzo, Joey’s expression at the moment is undoubtedly much more serious. He is like a cold weapon, waiting for the enemy to appear.
“But this is just a guess.”
“But your so-called conjecture is a kind of probability. Within the cleansing agency, we have deduced several plans for the collapse of the Kingdom and split the Kingdom, and proposed different solutions to this plan. The final result is that some plans really happened. , And the situation has been well controlled and resolved under our foresight.”
Joey said looking towards outside the window to determine the location. It seemed that this guy was really anxious.
“In other words, according to the normal historical process, your cleansing agency and even Irvine have been destroyed several times?”
Lorenzo was a little surprised. What Joey said is like the prophecies inside Demon Hunter Order. Those Demon Hunter people of Shondarfin branch are always anticipating the death of others. They are almost the same, but what Joey said is true. A lot.
“To be precise, we have avoided the possibility of destruction. Since the history of destruction has been avoided, it simply does not exist.”
“Like a branch?”
Lorenzo said, choosing one road after another, but these people already knew what the road would usher in next and responded accordingly.
“Probably that.”
He answered.
The carriage ran wildly inside the street, like a galloping war chariot. It finally stopped after running wildly for an unknown amount of time. At this moment, there were countless soldiers who appeared in front of Lorenzo. They pointed their weapons directly at the carriage. Since Lorenzo and the cleansing agency “cooperated” for so long, the understanding of its equipment is that it is a Thermite rifle, and one round of fire is enough to melt everything.
“This is your cleansing agency headquarters?”
Although Lorenzo didn’t show anger on his mouth, the secret blood had already started, and he didn’t trust these people very much.
“Please calm down, Mr. Holmes.”
The soldiers dispersed, and Red Eagle walked out of it. Lorenzo didn’t expect it would be him.
“How do you know I’m not calm enough?”
Lorenzo thought that his emotions were well controlled and there was no possibility of being discovered, but Red Eagle raised his hand. On top of it was a Geiger counter. At this moment, its index was rising slightly.
“Didn’t expect that ghost is very sensitive.”
Lorenzo said coldly, but the index was still rising, he didn’t intend to give anyone face.
“This is just for safety. After all, you also know that we are just a group of mortals, but we are fighting against Demon. The next thing you are going to is the headquarters of the cleansing agency. We have done a lot to prevent the high-level from being corroded by Demon. , These are just security forces.”
The cleansing agency is different from Demon Hunter Order. They do not have the black technology blessing in “Revelation”. The only armor technology is also exchanged for precious steam technology from Nine Summers.
The noble great characters in the Demon Hunter Order are guarded by the Demon Hunter of the Medanzo branch. They are the guards of paradise. Lorenzo’s power is obvious to all. However, among these sacred guards, he is still not the strongest, even just a position. Column midstream.
In the history of Order, there was an example of Demon successfully invading Seven Hills, but under the protection of those powerful Medanzo branch Demon Hunter people, Saint Naluo cathedral lasted all night in the flood of Demon, soaked with blood. The entire Seven Hills, and the only thing they can do is to stain the door of the church with blood.
After the dawn came the door opened and the pope knelt unharmed before the holy cross. The red-clothed bishops followed behind him, whispering prayers as loud as a bell.
But such deeds will never happen again, Lorenzo said lightly in his heart.
Finally, Red Eagle took out a pair of blindfolds and handed it to Lorenzo.
“that’s it?”
“Yes, the location of the cleansing agency that we don’t want is exposed. These soldiers are just guarding here. I will take you there next.”
Lorenzo looked at him suspiciously, but finally took the blindfold. If the cleansing agency had thoughts about themselves, they would have done it a long time ago. There is no need to worry about them. Of course, it may be that they didn’t know how to deal with them before. , And now they have found a way.
But Lorenzo not at all made any statement, obediently and honestly put on the blindfold, in his opinion, he was also a little curious about what the mysterious cleansing agency would look like.
