  Chapter 135 The Age of Ignorance

   is really a terrifying answer, I am afraid that no one would have expected such a result.

   "About the divine coffin, I understand, it's a big trouble."

   Arthur sighed, feeling very stressed.

Lorenzo pushed the wheelchair and walked with Arthur in the huge underground tunnel. After the hard work of the ventilation fan, the air here is much better. Although there are all kinds of strange and complicated smells, at least that is what humans can currently do. The gas to breathe out.

  There are dim lights above the head. They extend along the railroad tracks to the end of the field of vision. There are complicated steam pipes juxtaposed with them. They may be in disrepair for a long time. Condensed water droplets have fallen and wet a large piece of soil.

   "It's not just trouble, Arthur, now the whole Old Dunling is in danger."

  Lorenzo kept as calm as possible.

Once the erosion of the demon erupts in Cheng, with the population density of the old Dunling, conventional firepower cannot suppress the flood of the demon at all, or detonate the pillar of the furnace, and send the entire old Dunling underground to solve that degree. Crisis.

   "Hmm... do you know what is in the sacred coffin?"

  After a long silence, Arthur asked slowly.

  At this moment, he showed the ability of a leader. Various ideas and plans rushed in his mind quickly, and at the same time, he was constantly annoyed by why he was in so much trouble when he came to his office.

"The demon, the last demon, according to Medanzo, it is a demon with the concept of a "demon". You can understand that as long as you kill it, the concept of a demon will no longer exist in the world, and the demon will no longer exist. ."

  Lorenzo replied, this is what Medanzo said to him on the night of the Holy Advent. The man named as an angel has always been so reliable, which makes people feel at ease.

  "So what exactly does it look like? Mr. Holmes, is it a human, an object, or a monster, something should always have its shape, right."

   Arthur was not surprised by the theorem of the concept, as if he had expected it, he continued to ask instead.

  Lorenzo was startled, only then did he realize that he had never thought about it.

  "I don’t know. The ritual to deal with it is on the birthday of God. Only those demon hunters who are named angels are eligible to participate in that ritual. I am only guarding outside the church."

  It was a grand execution. The cold winter night was warmed by the boiling church.

   "So, even you don’t know what is there, right."

  Lorenzo nodded silently.

  "Then Mr. Holmes, why are you sure again...Why is the evangelical church so sure that as long as the demon and the holy grail are killed, the concept of the demon will disappear?"

  "As far as I know, all the knowledge of the gospel church about demons originates from the Gospel and Revelation, right, that is to say, is it recorded in these two books?"

   Arthur suddenly asked the question from another angle. He seemed to know something, maintaining absolute sanity.

  Lorenzo didn't know how to answer for a while, but Arthur said immediately.

"Mr. Holmes, in fact, it is far beyond your imagination to eliminate the mysterious things that the agency has contact with. We will make a lot of experiments and adjustments to fight against demons. We even say that one of our purposes is to make everything understandable. ."

"It's like erosion, like a demon, we will explain it with understandable technology and formulas, like Geiger counter, frontal lobe resection... Then another topic, Mr. Holmes, do you think it is a religion? What is the most important thing to maintain?"

   Arthur looked directly at Lorenzo. He was obviously a wounded man who almost died, but his eyes were as sharp as a sword, as if he was about to split all of Lorenzo's confusion.

"Belief……"

"No, it's ignorance. Only the low-level ignorance can support the mythology that is full of loopholes. Mr. Holmes, think about it. If you remove those mysterious and mysterious religious vocabulary, you will find that the essence of all secret blood technology is science and pure. Science."

Arthur coughed vigorously a few times, and the pain on his body was still tormenting him, but the electric gaze grabbed Lorenzo again, and Lorenzo didn’t even have the courage to look away from him, so he could only hold him tightly. Look at each other.

  "Then what do we need to fight with the demons?"

   "It's reason, right."

   Arthur said quickly, his voice was flat, but it was like a rapid thunder.

   "But Mr. Holmes, believing in that kind of illusory god... is it really reasonable?"

  True heretical words. Arthur was no longer burned by Michael the Demon Hunter. A few hundred years ago, he would be escorted to St. Nalo Cathedral, where the Pope would personally light the fire of punishment.

"Mr. Holmes, in fact, I can see that you are not a believer. Those pedantic beliefs have not suppressed your thoughts, so I will tell you this... After all, those fanatics are really troublesome. When Inervig first promoted the steam engine, those people thought it was artifacts from the devil, in which poor souls were sealed to work for us."

   said that Arthur smiled disdainfully.

  "This is why we have always been unable to get along with the gospel church. The continuation of a religion requires the ignorance of the bottom, but we in Inervig want the brilliance of technology to cover every land."

  Arthur had already seen everything. Lorenzo was a soldier, and he was a general in control of the situation.

  "The old era has passed, and the new era is unstoppable. The Holy Gospel Papal State wants to regain control of the Western world only to defeat Inervig as soon as possible, otherwise the progress of steam technology will only continue to defeat ignorance."

  “Sometimes I have to thank Holy Night. If this incident hadn’t hit the gospel church severely, otherwise we would have gone to war with it in recent years, and war is inevitable.”

   "A world war...right?"

  Lorenzo felt a little depressed.

  "Don’t think so much, Mr. Holmes, that’s not what you worry about. Now our primary purpose is to figure out what the Master Lawrence is going to do, and where is he?"

   Arthur motioned Lorenzo to stop, and the two stood in the dim tunnel. Whether they looked forward or backward, it was endless gray.

  "The only thing that can fully support you now is to eliminate the organs, Mr. Holmes, I think we have enough trust before, right."

  He looked at Lorenzo, revealing his purpose.

  "This is a win-win cooperation, but I need to know what happened on the night of Holy Prophet, can it? I only have to know the full picture of the incident, and this machine called the cleansing mechanism can roar."

  A person’s power is limited. If Lorenzo had not been killed by Master Lawrence without the aid of the cleansing agency, he would not be able to fight alone forever.

  "But this is related to the Holy Grail, it is extremely corrosive..."

  Lorenzo shook his head, he was still a little unwilling to accept, he refused.

  This is a night that Lorenzo hid in his heart, and his revenge belongs only to him.

   "It is possible to spread through ‘verbal’, right?"

  Arthur interrupted Lorenzo directly. As the person in charge of the decontamination agency, Arthur knew no less about the knowledge of demons than Lorenzo.

   "Then please sort out the sentence, Mr. Holmes, just omit the part that we cannot listen to."

   Arthur stared at Lorenzo closely. They are of the same kind. Everyone here can be regarded as desperadoes, and lone wolves can become a pack of wolves if they gather together.

  The sound of iron whistling came from the end of the tunnel, and the beast of steel was moving towards here, so the railroad track trembled slightly, and finally came to a halt slowly with the surging wind.

  The door of the steam subway opened. After the steam ran out, the gray robe's face slowly appeared.

   "Merlin is the greatest alchemist I have ever seen. Do you mind having an additional audience?"

  Arthur's voice flowed through, and Merlin lifted his hood and smiled at Lorenzo.
