The patter of light rain gradually intensified, and they became heavier and heavier, until the heavy rain that turned into a crash-bang fell and slapped the city intensively.

Arthur sits by the window. From this position, you can just see the Dunling Pagoda in the rain and mist. The tower stands tall, turning into a gray and blue silhouette.

“What a tough winter.”

Arthur murmured, the rain was getting heavier and heavier for several days, and after this was the harsh winter, he could imagine the whole city being frozen.

After living in Old Turin for so long, Arthur has become accustomed to this. The steam pipes burst, the streets were filled with water and fog, and the maintenance workers rushed to and from the metal. The sound of beating metal was endless, even in the middle of the night. Endless.

Just thinking of what will happen next, the current severe cold undoubtedly adds more haze to all of this.

“The evacuation has begun, Arthur.”

Zuojin’s voice sounded inside the communicator. Hearing these Arthur relaxed, at least the death row was still proceeding in an orderly manner.

“I know, wait for the evacuation to end, we can prepare for the war wholeheartedly.”

“So…isn’t there any changes to the list?” Zuojin asked.

“What’s the matter?” Arthur puzzled.

“Eve is not on the list, I remember she is your daughter.”

Hearing this, Arthur’s eyes were slightly lost, but soon he was very ruthless again.

“Hmm, so what?”

“I thought…”

“Nothing to think, she is now a member of the cleansing agency, I think, if I do this, she will not accept it herself, what do you think?”

Arthur said blankly, “Isn’t Zuo Tang also your nephew? Now we are bound by duty, not family affection.”

There was no sound on the other end, and after a long time, Zuojin said slowly.

“Okay, I see.”

Arthur’s eyes are low. In fact, he and Eve talked about it once, but in the current situation, the ending is obvious. Instead of rushing for his life, it is better to go to the end together.

“So…bye? Arthur, you are a good leader.”

Zuojin suddenly talked about something else, and after a short electric current, his voice disappeared completely.

Arthur’s expression is a little unnatural, he doesn’t know why, he always feels Zuojin’s final farewell, which seems to have a different emotion.

He hates these strangers a bit. They come from afar, with stories covered in dust and blood energy. Lorenzo is like this, so is Zuojin.

Whenever he thinks of Zuojin’s face, Arthur feels that it is the face of a dead person. The skin is dry and shriveled like a dead tree, superimposed on each other. In the heavy shadows are the grayness of the pupils. The deepest part of the darkness, there is no rays of light exists.

It’s really disturbing.

Arthur got up, picked up the communicator and the pistol, it was time for him to act.

Before he and Zuojin made a decision, in order to avoid being beheaded by Roger, he will not appear at the same place as Zuojin. In fact, there is another rule. In order to preserve vitality as much as possible, Zuojin will be in the sun. Next, carrying out most of the orders, Arthur needs to act in the shadows temporarily to avoid being noticed by Roger.

It was also because of these decisions that Arthur appeared here, not in the Broken Dome. I have to say that this decision was correct. Otherwise, according to Arthur’s original plan, he might have died inside the Broken Dome.

Pushing the door open, Arthur stopped suddenly. At the end of the corridor, someone was slowly moving towards here. Behind him, there were more people following.

“Who are you?”

With his old eyes full of alert, Arthur raised his pistol.

For a moment Arthur realized a lot of these people he was not familiar with, and the soldiers here would not allow them to come.

The layers of protection they have crossed now almost reach Arthur.

[Goodbye, Arthur. ]

Zuojin’s words echoed in his mind, and horrified fireworks burst in Arthur’s mind. Before waiting for the answer from the other party, when he was about to fire, he only felt a pain behind him. In just a few seconds, Arthur was lost. The sensation of the arm, the muscles are stiff, it is difficult to move, even simple things like pulling the trigger can’t be done.

Then came a heavy blow. Arthur was knocked to the ground and his vision became blurred. He saw someone coming from behind him, squatting beside him, seeming to be checking something.

“Does this count as using public office to avenge private wrongs? I wanted to do it a long time ago.”

The man said, his voice was very fuzzy, but Arthur could still hear a sense of familiarity, but his consciousness became confused, and Arthur couldn’t remember who he was.

Familiar and unfamiliar faces slowly approached, and the man lowered his body to observe Arthur, while Arthur was also watching him.

“It’s…you…”

At the end of his consciousness, Arthur remembered the person in front of him, and along with it, there was the memory that was deliberately concealed.

They swallowed Arthur like a torrent.

……

“Well, the last person on the death row was successfully contained. The next step is to pack the car.”

Robin tied Arthur firmly, and then put him on the crown of Holy Silver.

Old Guy was so dizzy, Robin kicked him a few times, but there was no response.

“It’s so sweet to sleep.”

Robin laughed, he looked towards the front and asked, “Joey, are you going to make up for your feet? There are not many opportunities like this.”

“No.”

Joey is not as happy as Robin. He shook the head and looked at the thick clouds outside the window.

“The weather is getting worse.”

“Well, heavy rain is coming, and I don’t know if River Thames will flood the streets.”

Robin picked up Arthur and recalled, “I don’t remember that many times, but every time it brings huge losses.”

“This storm is different from the past.”

As Joey was talking, he followed Robin out the door. In a slightly cold breeze, Robin threw Arthur into the car and then locked it from the outside.

Robin was not in a hurry to leave. He leaned against the car and lit a cigarette. It was just that the warm gas could hardly dispel the cold. He fought the cold war from time to time.

“Is something going to happen?”

Robin looked at the sky. It was almost noon now, but the sky was only visible blue from the clouds. Apart from this was full of lead-gray clouds, as if not long ago, these clouds would solidify. Swallow all the sunlight.

“It’s really bad weather.”

Robin whispered.

“It can’t be explained by ‘bad’,” Joey said.

After a brief silence, both of them realized the problem, and the same vocabulary rose up in their hearts.

Erosion.

Erosion, there is only erosion. This weird force makes people crazy, shaping evil, and the invisible force spreads and affects the surrounding things.

In the records of cleansing agency and Demon Hunter Order, there are such examples. Excessive erosion can cause weird weather and anomalies, such as disrupted communication, such as the thundercloud storm that swallows everything on the sea of ​​silence. , For example, when the Black Mountain Hospital, the almost endless rainstorm.

Now they once again ushered in this battlefield, and this is not the end, just the beginning.

“You should go now, Robin.”

Joey has gloomy eyes and awe-inspiring expression.

“Aren’t you together?”

Robin asked, he thought Joey would leave with him.

“No, I am different from you, you are a retirement recall, and I am a deceased, at first we are different.”

Robin is slightly lost, he understands the meaning of the dead.

People like Joey and Galahad have already suffered from Demon’s erosion, but they just keep a delicate balance. They won’t be crazy, but they won’t get rid of the curse.

No one knows when they will completely collapse, but what can be understood is that they will be fearless in this way.

They are “dead”, “dead” with nothing, “dead” has nothing to fear.

“So… I am very happy to work with you, Joey.”

Robin sat on the carriage and picked up the reins. His voice seemed hesitant, but he still said it.

“Me too, I am glad to remember you again, Robin.”

Joey waved his hand to him and said no more, watching the carriage driving into the rain, disappeared, while he turned around and looked towards the scattered people walking out of the street.

The Cai Gongs wore black raincoats, and their faces were also covered under their hoods, like Nether Soul wandering in the wilderness one after another.

“It’s going to start…”

Joey sighed softly.

……

“It’s so tragic, it turned out to be like this, is this a blow to all the accumulation of your cleansing agency?”

Watson and Galahad wandered on the ruins of the Broken Dome. Everything they were once familiar with became ruins and ashes. The rain engulfed them and turned into dark water, which penetrated into the deep layers below.

“Fortunately, only the top command system was destroyed by the battle, and the communication system in the middle section is still working normally.”

Galahad looked down, dense cables entangled all around the Dun Ling Pagoda, like a dense cobweb, these woven lairs connect the people of Old Turin without cutting off communication .

“How long do you think this can last? Once the battle breaks out, communication will be disrupted and interrupted under high-intensity erosion.” Watson asked.

“Who knows?”

Galahad extend the hand, feeling the cool rain.

“It depends on how long the battle can be controlled. We invested a lot of antimeme in Pillar of Forge, and they turned into rising rain, which has permeated the city since the beginning of the plan.” [ 19459002]

Contrary to what Joey thought, the abnormal weather in Old Turin this time is not only caused by erosion, but also driven by scavengers.

Pillar of Forge boils day and night, putting endless antimemes evenly inside the city, and over time, the intensity of antimemes is gradually increasing.

“We have created an antimemetic battlefield, and the expansion of erosion will be suppressed, which may help us resist interference,” Galahad said, “and suppress any Demon that appears in Old Turin.” [19459002 ]

“Is that so… Actually, I also have an idea, which can unite us all.”

Watson looked at the city below. This is the highest point of Old Turin. Standing here, Watson felt like a god, looking down at all beings.

“[Gap]?”

Galahad walked up to her and asked slightly disturbed.

After so many days of getting along, Galahad knows exactly what kind of monster he is walking with.

Watson, like Roger and Ed Lun, is a formidable evil, but the biggest difference between her and other monsters is that Watson stands firmly on the side of humans.

“Use erosion to spread to the whole city, connect everyone together, and use [Gap] to communicate?”

Galahad said that this is very possible, and from Lorenzo’s actions in Silent Sea, we can see the feasibility of this power.

It’s just that the risk is great.

Once Watson has an accident, these united consciousnesses will become a tunnel for the spread of disasters, and everyone will not be spared.

Looking at the cold mask, Watson didn’t respond, and there was just silence. She seemed to merge with the sky and wind and rain, with a solemn chill.

Watson did not answer Galahad’s question, but talked about something else.

“Erosion… is rising.”

“What did you say?”

Watson stared at the hazy city in the rain and fog, she told calmly.

“Old Turin is being surrounded by erosion, an incredibly powerful erosion, they are eating away at the city little by little…”

Watson closed her eyes, and as the erosion spread, her silhouette appeared in every corner of Old Turin.

A pair of blazing white eyes appeared on different people. The walking pedestrian stopped. He looked towards the dark alley beside the street. The tramp beside the trash can opened his sleepy eyes. The pupils were faintly white, looking at the opened manhole cover, there was a burst of heat rising in it, and there was the sound of hammer beating.

The maintenance worker was struggling to plug the breakage of the pipe. He didn’t wait for more to breathe and rest. He got up in a ghostly manner, and under the incomprehensible gaze of other workers, moved towards the dark depths.

He stood on the edge of the huge shaft, his eyes drooping, and fell into deeper darkness.

At the end of the darkness, a small sound can be heard, something seems to be squirming in the depths of the darkness, it seems to be a group of rats, or it may be a poison insect.

They are slowly fermenting, giving birth to the most evil power.

It seems to have noticed that someone was prying, and a hundred vague eyes were opened in the darkness, but just before they noticed the visitor, the whiteness in the eyes of the maintenance worker disappeared, and he stood in the original with a confused look. place, not knowing what to do, look all around.

He didn’t understand why he appeared here, and after thinking about it, he was about to leave, but the moment he turned around, the dark and weird palm grabbed his ankle.

There were husky laughter in the dark.

At the top of Dunling Tower, Watson opened his eyes again, and his gentle voice finally trembles, not sure if it is fear or joy.

“It’s started, Galahad.”

Watson looked at this peaceful city under the rain. Soon, fiery fireworks will rush in every street.

“Erosion will reach a critical point, and heavy rain will no longer be able to contain its runaway.”

She lightly said.

“The Demons are coming.”
