The warm ash and snow drifted with the wind, Plague doctor extend the hand gently caught the fleeting ashes, it fell on the palm of the palm of the hand, lightly rubbed and then dispersed into dust and disappeared into the air.

This is the end of an era and the arrival of a new era.

The turbulent white flame is still clearly visible even after such a distance, the pitch-black skeleton seems to be struggling, swaying slightly inside the white flame, a faint wailing sound comes from my ears.

“It looks like it’s over.”

Plague doctor lowered his head and looked at the boat swallowed by the waves. The sea was furious. If the steamship hadn’t saved him, then he should have been sleeping with the iron coffin under the sea at this moment.

Under the dark blue sea, there are the faces of Demons. They are still creatures in essence, but these incompletely alienated Demons are completely restrained by the waves, sinking little by little, and die in seabed.

“This is not the end, it is just a new beginning.”

The man walked over in a dark yellow raincoat, and the ship was swaying violently in the rough waves inside, but he was walking flat on the ground, maintaining a delicate balance, pulling the rope in his hand and dragging the heavy iron coffin on the deck.

“You seem to be at a loss. That should be your last Demon. It’s not easy to make such a large batch.”

Plague doctor turned his head and said to the man, these Demons were released by men. If it weren’t for Demon’s obstruction, the steamship would not be able to travel such a long distance to avoid the search of sail towards the dawn, which is the giant eye floating in the sky. , There is no chance to escape on the unobstructed sea.

“Compared to the gains, the losses are only a little bit.”

The man chuckled, unimaginable power erupted from under his body. The iron coffin that the cultivator of painstaking cultivation took up with all their strength was extremely light in his hand, and it was dragged directly between him and the Plague doctor, and followed the strong wind. , The rags that covered it went with the wind, and the mottled old body was directly exposed in front of the two people.

“Hu…this feels really bad.”

Plague doctor took a deep breath, his voice was tired and stressed, he moved his eyes to the other side, avoiding his eyes as much as possible.

“You still don’t seem to be able to adapt to it. In fact, it is very good, as long as there is a little honey, it will obey.”

The man gently stroked the bumpy surface, the metal cold poured into his body, and everything psychedelic began to appear before his eyes.

Memories still have hallucinations and that weird whisper, all of which swept through his brain, but he didn’t seem to be affected, calmly raised his hand, and drew out a sharp blade to cut a fatal wound on his wrist, blood dripping.

The blood moved along the cracks of the iron coffin, like a picture scroll, filling every texture, and finally building a strange appearance on the ancient metal surface.

Plague doctor saw all this from the corner of his sight, the weird feeling that had eroded his sanity disappeared, but something more weird appeared, and the sour beating sounded, it seemed that the snakes were entangled and rubbed together. The scales, the blood seemed to have been sucked out by an iron coffin, without a drop falling out.

It seemed to be a creature, and the food just now made it peaceful.

“So this is the way to contain it? Blood.”

Plague doctor thought it was a bit weird. It seemed that he didn’t expect such a weird thing to rely on blood for food.

The man shook the head, covering the wound on his wrist, looking at it with some fascination.

“Accurately speaking, it feeds on secret blood. Of course, this thing can only satisfy it for a moment. It will become more and more greedy until it needs a cruel sacrifice.”

“But it can be quiet now. After all, the Demon Hunter person is there. I don’t want to be out of touch.”

Plague doctor slightly nodded, as the blood was sucked, the corrosive properties of the iron coffin seemed to disappear for a short time. It was like an ordinary coffin, and it stopped here quietly.

“So, may I know what this thing is?”

After a long time, Plague doctor asked.

The man laughed.

“It’s not good to know too much.”

“But it’s also part of my reward, isn’t it? I am a doctor, a Scholar, and I have an infinite passion for knowledge.”

“Even if you die for it?”

Plague doctor was silent for a moment, firmly nodded.

“of course.”

A heavy voice came from under the mask of the beak, Plague doctor slowly said.

“that’s nice……”

The man stared at the darkness under the mask, and he said happily.

“I like people like you, who have ideals. Everyone is an ideal ideologyist. For ideals, even death is fearless. It feels great.”

“So what is it?”

Plague doctor asked again.

“I have been pursuing the essence of life all my life, and even Demon I dissection a lot… In fact, Demon is essentially a kind of creature, but it transcends ordinary people’s understanding of the concept of biology.

I have been trying to figure out the essence of Demon for so many years, but I have found nothing. You said that this thing will help my breakthrough research. I hope you don’t break your promise. “

The trench coat inside the flesh is creeping strangely, bringing up one bulge after another on the surface of the cloth. For a moment, Plague doctor seems to have lost his human form, or he is a kind of monster himself, hiding himself in the thick The clothes inside, barely maintain a human shape,

The man is nodded, he replied.

“I never break my word, but before that, do you want to hear its story? There are not many people who know it exists in this world.”

He let out a hoarse laugh. It was a temptation, an invitation from a devil. The Plague doctor was very clear about some of the rules of these madmen. For example, if you understood something, you are connected with the weird darkness.

He was firmly nodded, and then this dusty story resurfaced.

“That was a long time ago. After the eastern campaign a few hundred years ago, we destroyed most of the heretics. On the surface, the Knight regiment started the war. The Demon Hunter Order secretly carried out the beheading operation. The Kingdom and the army were not us. The opponent of the Church, that was the glorious moment of the Church, and the entire Western world was shaking under our feet.”

Reminiscing about that glorious moment, the man’s eyes were gleaming.

“After that, the so-called Demon was once extinct in the world, and the hunt continued for several hundred years. Until a few years ago, we killed the last Demon.”

“The last Demon?”

Plague doctor asked unbelievably.

“This thing can really kill you all?”

“Of course, it’s like ripples on a calm water surface. Those ripples are Demon, but as long as the source of the earthquake is not destroyed, endless Demons will be born.”

“We caught the’seismic source’, that thing with the’concept’ of Demon.”

The man thought about it carefully, and found that even after so long, it is difficult for him to describe the weird existence with the existing human vocabulary.

“The church called it Holy Grail, but I’m more comfortable calling it Demon.”

He said casually, the steamship released a large amount of white fog, riding the wind and waves towards the end of the sea.

“It was an epoch-making scene, and I am glad I experienced it myself.

Its execution took place in the Saint Naluo cathedral in Seven Hills, where the coronation of every pope was and their remains were buried there.

The missionaries first bathed the Demon with blessed holy water. Sharp nails penetrated its 4 limbs. The holy orchestra sang loudly and the organ was magnificent.

This execution almost exhausted the Holy Silver stored by the church. That thing was essentially a metal that was highly toxic to Demon, but it was only used as a coating due to its low output.

But this time we took a bath for it with Holy Silver, and its body was cast into the boiling Holy Silver inside. The most skilled blacksmith of Florence beat the unsolidified silver ingot and made it in its wailing sound. It became the appearance of an iron coffin, and then in the pope’s prayers, the words of the holy words were engraved on it. “

Gently brushing those carved marks that look like words, I don’t know what has gone through this iron coffin for so many years. Those holy words have been fuzzy.

“This is the essence of Sacred Coffin. It is the tomb of the Demon concept.”

That was the secret of astonishment. For a moment, the voice was lost in the world. Plague doctor could only perceive something approaching. In the weird silence inside, he stifled his throat, and the flesh and blood became cold, frozen, and cold. The frost spreads from within the body and continues to flow to the heart and brain.

At the time of life and death, the bloody and distorted severed limbs shattered, and Plague doctor covered his broken arm and gasped for breath.

“This is the entrance fee. Knowing that someone noble is always presenting a gift, isn’t it?”

The man slowly put away the Nail sword, and the bright sword was stained with blood.

Plague doctor’s arm fell on the iron coffin, and then it was as if time was accelerating. The blood dried up and left a gray and black mark, flesh and skeleton were shrinking, and the remaining fabric dissipated completely in the next time. Become a small pile of dust.

“But I hope you can tell me in advance.”

Plague doctor endured the severe pain and said, but the wound that broke between his words began to squirm strangely, first a white skeleton protruded from it, and then the fine muscles connected to it, heavy covering, the newborn arm Appeared in a flash.

“In other words, the last Demon is being placed in the iron coffin now?”

This is really a terrifying fact. The Plague doctor feels a chill at the thought of spending so long with such a dangerous thing.

“Almost, but don’t worry, now there are only its remains.”

“remains?”

“You can understand it as a corpse, but it hasn’t completely died yet. This thing is usually hard to die. After all, to a certain extent it represents the’concept’ of Demon.

We don’t know how many more things have “concepts”, but they should be extremely difficult to kill, just like light. To destroy the concept of “light” not only destroys all the things that can shine in the world, but also There are literary songs, everything that reminds people of light. “

The man said to the Plague doctor.

“In order to clarify this knowledge, we can have a pope…perhaps more than one.”

Take a deep breath, Plague doctor wants to keep a certain distance from this hell thing, but behind him is the sea, there is nowhere to hide.

“Don’t worry, it’s still controllable now. After all, it’s just a corpse. It can only act on instinct. The trickiest part has escaped. It’s very docile now.”

“Escaped, you mean this hell thing has been out of the control of the church?”

Plague doctor realized his mistake in the middle of speaking, and even the remains were placed in front of him. It was inevitable that this thing would be out of the control of the church.

“Yes, human beings still overestimate their own abilities. We are not qualified to control this miraculous power.”

The flicking hand touched a gap on the metal surface. The gap was so small, almost fuse together with the complicated lines. If it hadn’t been for a man to see how it left, he wouldn’t be able to find this position. .

“I have lost track of that thing since Night of Advent, and the church has also suffered from Night of Advent strength great injury. After so many years, even the recovery of secret blood has not been completed, but I am also grateful for it, otherwise I would have been taught. Caught and executed.”

“Now no one knows where that ghost has escaped…maybe it is now inside your and my consciousness.”

The man hehe smiles, but this really makes Plague doctor happy does not raise.

“Yes, this is your reward.”

It was 5 milliliters of blood, sealed inside delicate quartz, like a slender red thread, through the dim light, the blood reflected it like a ruby.

“5 ml of Holy Grail blood.”

Plague doctor accepted the Holy Grail blood, his voice was suspicious.

“In other words, this thing is its blood?”

As the name of Holy Grail, Plague doctor has to pay attention to it.

“Yes, or not. After all, that thing is very weird. It is an indescribable thing. The so-called blood is still a body. It is just a manifestation of the incomprehensible thing, but it is certain This is the secret blood with the highest purity in the history of the church, and it is infinitely close to the pure secret blood.

It was a liquid miracle. Plague doctor was holding back the excitement in his heart, but the man’s voice sounded again.

“So what are you going to do next? One of the most precious things in this world is already in your hands.”

Putting away the blood of Holy Grail, Plague doctor’s voice returned to calm, he said.

“Of course I continue my research, and my book is almost finished. Of course thanks to your help.”

“Oh, what are you going to call it.”

The man looked towards the end of the sea level, and a dim light rose, driving away the darkness and bringing warm hope.

At dawn, this desperate night is finally coming to an end.

“I haven’t figured it out yet. My research is about people and Demon. Demon has too many weird characteristics, just like the gastric grass and the illusion of the night, it is not only a weird power, it has its own” Species’.

And one of the characteristics is extremely attractive. Gills evolve from fear of sea water. Membrane wings grow between limbs when they are unable to fly. Even if the limbs are broken, they can recover quickly. No matter how harsh the environment, as long as the pollution of Demon is high enough, It can be adapted to evolve. “

The mask of the beak looked towards the man, he said.

“Would you like to give me a name? It depends on your generous reward.”

The man thought about it.

“Um… how about calling it “Theory of Evolution”?”

Plague doctor was silent for a long time, then said.

“not bad.”

A loud siren sounded from afar, and the boat welcoming the man appeared at the end of the sea. He carried the iron coffin, and the heavy metal was shining in the morning light.

“Then it’s time for goodbye. I hope we will have opportunities to cooperate in the future.”

Plague doctor nodded, said.

“Goodbye then, Reverend Lawrence.”

With a kind smile, Lawrence nodded stepped into the morning light inside.

“You too, Mr. Charles Darwin, may we meet in the sinner’s hell.”
