At the corner of the night at night, the dim light came down, and the inner Qi atmosphere of the tavern was very calm, with only strong alcohol reverberating in the meantime.

This is a newly opened tavern, probably because there is not much publicity, coupled with the remote location, there are few guests in the tavern, and there is no sound of conversation. Everyone sits in their own shadow and tastes Strong wine, walk into the wind and rain inside after a good rest.

Lorenzo sits on the edge of the bar, and the sword bag full of Nail sword is hung aside, revealing a cold corner, which makes those who notice it feel terrified.

I didn’t seem to have done anything today, but I feel like I have experienced a lot of things.

Lorenzo stared at the drink in the glass, his face reflected on the surface of the deep sky.

After drinking it, Lorenzo doesn’t have much drunkenness. The physique of the Demon Hunter makes this numbness only lasting for a short time, and he can’t even completely indulge himself.

“You look troubled.”

The bartender leaned in, now there are no guests, he is also very leisurely.

“It’s okay, but I always feel something is wrong, just like losing myself at the time.”

Lorenzo responded lazily, lifts the head, and smiled at the bartender.

“The new store is not bad, Hercule.”

“I think it’s not bad. Although it’s a bit remote, it’s at least far from the lower city district.” Hercule looked at her new store with her arms akimbo.

“lower city district fish and dragons mixed in together, it’s easy to make money, but there are many things. Those guys fight in the tavern from time to time, and sometimes they die. It’s really annoying.” [19459002 ]

Feeling the harmony in the tavern, soft songs are being played slowly on the phonograph, Hercule is enjoying the beauty of peace.

“Where is the old store?” Lorenzo asked.

“Sold to someone else.”

Hercule said that he picked up several wine bottles and poured them back and forth. The wines of different colors were mixed together and packed in a glass, with fine bubbles constantly floating on the top. The color was dark green, just like some kind of monster’s saliva. .

After doing all this, Hercule pushed the glass towards Lorenzo, and Lorenzo glanced at it. Although he didn’t want to, he still took the cup of “recklessness” for Hercule’s account deduction.

“So Mr. Holmes came here, isn’t it just to rub me a few drinks?”

Hercule inquired, it was also at this time that the sound of fine footsteps sounded, very slight, but could not escape Lorenzo’s ears.

Bolo took off and jumped onto the bar. Lorenzo tried to reach out to grab it, but it jumped again and jumped onto Hercule’s head.

The sound of zhi zhi is like laughing at Lorenzo.

“Dead mouse.”

Lorenzo cursed secretly, then looked towards Hercule and said uncertainly.

“I always feel… I seem to have forgotten something.”

“Memory Palace, I taught you.” Hercule said.

It was a magical palace with countless corridors and doors. The bookshelves in the room were full of books, recording all the things in life in detail, waiting for the owner of the palace to check it out.

It was with the help of Hercule that Lorenzo retrieved the lost memory.

“No, it’s a bit different. I encountered antimeme at the end of the world. At that time, I was also trying to use the memory palace to avoid these…”

Lorenzo’s words gradually fell, thinking of the illusory scene in his mind.

The splendid palace collapsed and collapsed continuously under the influence of antimemetic. Lorenzo ran along the path of memory. He found the room related to Frocky Wilgderson, but the walls there were blank , The door to advance has long been wiped out.

“Antimeme can erase even the memory palace, it is a complete erasure.”

Lorenzo’s words contained a little bit of fear. This power has no hideous entity, nor can it bring torture, but its deceitful nature is enough to make anyone awake at night.

“Like you, Hercule, if you are erased, my memory about you will disappear, and things that can prove your existence will also be distorted, just like an author with a stroke of a book One of the characters is completely eliminated.”

Hercule’s face became cold. From these short sentences inside, he could already know the terrifying of this power, but the most important thing was Lorenzo’s reaction.

“At first I thought I was not affected by antimemetic effects, but the longer I spent in Old Turin, the more I could feel the slightest difference. It seems…my life is not like this, I seem to be missing something , But I remember does not raise. “

Lorenzo said to himself, his expression slightly painful.

He has forgotten something, it is very important, extremely important, but Lorenzo does not raise anyway.

“Are you sure you are not affected by antimeme?” Hercule asked.

“I…I was not affected.”

Lorenzo hesitated for a moment, and then became firm. At the end of the world, he has been continuously injecting Florent potion in large quantities. In order to avoid forgetting anything, he is always vigilant.

Recalling the past again, the picture is flying in front of my eyes.

“Could it be you who made yourself forget these?” Hercule doubted.

“I…make myself forget these?”

Listening to Hercule’s words, Lorenzo’s expression was slightly ecstatic.

“Yeah, I don’t know what happened to you, but it’s possible, isn’t it? Besides, it’s not the first time you have done this.”

Hercule wiped the glasses, cleaned them, and hung them on the cup holder above.

“Those dim memories are deliberately forgotten by you, sealed behind the gate, maybe this is the same thing you forgot this time.”

“Then there should be traces of it in the memory palace.”

Lorenzo said, but in the middle of speaking he suddenly realized the problem.

Seeing his funny expression, Hercule smiled. Regarding memory, Hercule is more familiar with this thing than anyone else. Under that past experience, he can easily remember his every day.

“Look, it might be like this. You used antimeme to make yourself forget something.”

Lorenzo was silent for a while, his pupils tightened slightly, his thoughts fluttered.

“So… why should I forget these?”

……

It is often said that after you know Old Turin enough, you will realize that Old Turin is a very bloated city, not only the complex system wrapped in this city, but also because of its huge and complex construction.

The most troublesome thing in this city is not the endless water vapor, but the steam pipes deep underground. Under the vigorous construction of the mechanical academy, Pillar of Forge is like the roots of trees that are deeply rooted in the ground. Down, it continuously spread all around, filling the land with machinery and steel.

With the blessing of the years, Pillar of Forge’s design drawings have been iterated from generation to generation, personnel replacement, mechanical expansion, Old Turin’s Underground World has completely turned into another huge and dark maze, filled with rats and Poison insect, even perpetual motion pump, has no confidence to say that he fully understands this inverted Underground City.

The river water of River Thames was poured into Pillar of Forge, and the rising fireworks released a large amount of steam, which rushed through the pipes, driving all kinds of machinery.

Inside the entrenched steel roots, the perpetual motion pump is located in the middle section of Pillar of Forge, below it, which is the deepest part of Pillar of Forge, where there is a high-temperature furnace, and the burning residue is dumped in the darkness inside, forgotten.

There is no need, almost no one will come here, in fact, there is no way to reach this depth directly.

Under the cooperation of perpetual motion pump and mechanical academy, the functions of Pillar of Forge were distinguished many years ago. The upper section near the surface will control all the operations of Pillar of Forge, while the lower section of Pillar of Forge only Just need to check and maintain from time to time, no personnel is required to be stationed at all.

Therefore, the perpetual motion pump is the deepest point that can be reached. Below it is the burning fire sea, which provides continuous power for Old Turin.

Driven by these reasons, in the cleansing agency, most people have forgotten that there is such a dark land, and no one will think about what the roots of Pillar of Forge are.

But now, this is regarded as the depths of the wasteland residue, but it is full of dazzling white light, which reflects the huge underground building, and on the top of it is the complex pipeline, which sounds continuously The roar of the movement.

black clothed person lifts the head, looking at the dark red light source above the head, that is Pillar of Forge, behind the heavy metal, is the burning fire sea, accompanied by the roar, hot steam overflows between the cracks in the pipe , Cooling on the cold metal, leaving a slightly cool drop of water.

This is the deepest part of Pillar of Forge, but it is different from the dark wasteland that people are familiar with. It has a huge building complex that is not inferior to the perpetual motion pump. The black clothed person looks under the high platform and can see the armed Silent soldiers, they marched silently, and were sent to the ground by a lift amidst the harsh sound.

That is a secret passage directly to the surface of Old Turin. Even the cleansing agency is not aware of the existence of these secret passages.

black clothed person extend the hand, pick up a cigarette and light it.

Smoking is not a pleasant thing for him. His body is deformed. Under the stimulation of tobacco, he can only feel a piercing pain, but he still inhales stubbornly, letting the pain make himself sober .

“A new round of antimemetic influence is ready and ready to be released.”

The broadcast echoed in Underground World, the machine could be heard twisting, and there was another roar in the furnace.

“Start to release.”

Carriers carrying antimemetic information are placed inside the furnace, and they will be wrapped with rising steam, turning them into new carriers, overflowing the streets of Old Turin, rising into the cumulus inside, turning into cold rain Falling down, continue to baptism the city.

No one knows what they don’t know yet. This is the case with the cleansing agency, and the same is the case with the country builder.

In this forgotten darkness, they influenced Old Turin’s cognition and kept secrets that could not be revealed for the time being.

With the sound of footsteps, the black clothed person turned around and saw another guy wearing a silver mask appeared in front of him.

From the appearance, this should be a woman, but her whole body is wrapped in a robe, and you can vaguely see under the robe, there is a metal of the same material as the mask, which seems to be a close-fitting armor, which completely protects her .

“How is it going?”

The woman asked, her voice cold, without the slightest emotion.

“All preparations have been completed, the record of scavenger was completely erased, the list of personnel was also destroyed, plus the antimemetic influence that was carried out since the establishment of the scavenger department, now no one knows our existence , Even Mr. Holmes.”

The black clothed person said, as the most mysterious department in the cleansing agency, he is very confident about this.

“Don’t underestimate him, I guess Mr. Holmes has already noticed the strangeness. If he delays for a while, he might find us.” The woman said.

The black clothed person thought for a while, he thought it was indeed possible for Lorenzo to do such a thing, but he was not worried about what women were worried about.

“Don’t worry, the actors are already in place, and the curtain will rise.”

“Is that so…” The woman groaned, and she turned to look at each other with the black clothed person. The darkness under the mask was scrolling with a faint flame.

“You have traces of erosion, and many people here have such traces.”

“Yes,” the black clothed person confessed, “In scavenger, people like us are called the dead.”

“It sounds like a good title can’t be considered.”

“Just get used to it,” the black clothed person overlooked the underground world, “Anyone who can appear here is ready.”

“Go to death?”

“Not only to die, but to obey the regulations, absolutely obey, even if someone survives, before leaving the scavenger department, he will be affected by antimemetics and forget everything related to this.” [19459002 ]

“No one knows,” the woman wears a mask, and the silver mask is covered with delicate patterns. No one can see her expression. “It sounds really sad.”

The black clothed person laughed, he didn’t feel sad about it, and then said his name.

“Galahad.”

“Sounds like a code name,” the woman hesitated, but did not refuse, “Watson.”

“You sound too, what about your name?” Galahad asked.

“It will be forgotten after all, this thing is not important, so are you, right?”

Galahad did not deny or answer. Watson stood with him and watched the scavengers running at full speed. In the distance, heavy footsteps echoed, as if a giant was marching in the dark.

Galahad’s emotions have not been mobilized like this for a long time, and he is a little hard to keep calm, exclaiming.

“We have detached from the story, free of the ‘author’’s pen.”

Galahad continued.

“We will be dispatched at critical moments to change the direction of the whole story, just like the most abrupt turning point in the story.”

Listening to what he said, Watson seemed to be thinking of something, and there was a smile under the mask, she said.

“It’s like a mechanical surrender.”

Galahad nodded approvingly, he repeats it.

“Mechanical descent.”
