Ember Gun

  Chapter 164 Brain Death

  Many times, the right choice will not bring good results, but sometimes bad decisions can win a glimmer of hope.

  Lorenzo opened his eyes leisurely, and after leaving the [gap], the Demon Hunter had never had a depressed state at this moment, but as if he had made some major decision, he clenched his fist.

   is really an interesting description.

  Recalling Watson’s words, Lorenzo felt like he knew the demons again.

As an ant, Lorenzo wanted to call for human help, so he piled up a pile of insect corpses... That is food that can survive the winter for ants, but it is a pile of rot and disgusting for the summoned humans. Rubbish.

  Humans and monsters are different, and there are barriers that are difficult to overcome between thinking.

  It is even possible to say that the brutal behavior of demons is just an interesting game in their own eyes?

   "Mr. Holmes?"

  Kestrel pushed the door, just to see Lorenzo, he interrupted Lorenzo's thoughts and shouted.

  Lorenzo raised his head to look at the Kestrel, got up and put the weapon on his side.

   "Have things arrived?"

   "It's all here. This is the old Dunling. It's okay for us to remove the organs and bring some things."

  Kestrel said, handing over a silver suitcase with ouroboros biting its tail printed on it. This thing comes from the perpetual pump.

  This is what Lorenzo needs after the arrival of the decontamination agency. With the previous cooperation, the decontamination agency’s material assistance is also fast.

   "Where are the identities of those people?"

  Lorenzo took the box, and then asked.

  "I have found out, but there are some problems, you need to look at them."

  Kestrel said that his brows were slightly frowned here, and it seemed that something had happened.

   "Okay, I see, wait for me a moment."

  Lorenzo said as he looked at Seleu on the bed, he said.

   "Seleu, we should go."

   "Where to go?"

  The girl raised her head, her eyes filled with fatigue and sleepiness.

   "You'll know in a moment...you can't stay here anymore."

  Lorenzo said lightly, Stuart’s mansion is so obvious that you can find it directly on some detailed maps.

  Now the enemy is in the dark, with the strange and unknown power of the monsters, no one knows how they will appear.

   "Of course, there is one more thing before this."

  Lorenzo opened the suitcase as he said, and from his point of view, he could see exactly what was inside. Those were rows of Florund's potions, which were called overnight from the pump of perpetual motion.

  But Lorenzo did not take out the medicine, but picked up another needle on the side, hid it under the back of his hand, and walked towards Seleu.

"what are you up to?"

  Seleu looked at Lorenzo who came by and felt something was wrong.

   "You need to rest Seleucid."

He said that after quickly injecting a small amount of tranquilizer into Seleu's body, the woman should be surprised at first, and then fiercely resisted, but before she could do more struggles, she swallowed her with a tide of sleepiness. , She closed her eyes weakly and fell asleep.

  The tight face loosened, a soft look.

   patted Seleu's face, and after confirming that the girl was really asleep, Lorenzo picked her up and saw Yawei who came in and gave it to Yawei directly.

  "If she has any unusual reaction, give her this injection."

  While speaking, he threw a Florund potion to Yawei.

  Human willpower is limited. Judging from the physique of the ordinary Selenium, under long-term fatigue, she will only become more vulnerable and unable to face the attack from the spirit.

   "What's wrong with her?"

  Looking at the lethargic Seleu, Yawei didn’t know the cause and effect, and became angry for a while.

   "Sleep, just sleep, we need to change place, I also need to prepare something."

  Lorenzo's expression became very cold, like a calm hunter, he wiped the blades and crossbows, and arranged the hunting traps.

The cold look scared Yawei a bit. In his eyes, this detective was dangerous, but he was always full of relaxing neuroticism, but now that some happy neuroticism is gone, there is only one demon hunter who concentrates on hunting. .

   "Yawei, you are actually the real backing of Upper Seleu."

  Lorenzo looked at the old housekeeper. Seleu was still young. She still had a lot to learn, so Yawei was responsible for the regulation of other families and the management of the Stuart’s property.

  What's more, in Lorenzo's view, it has been so long, and no one knows whether the remaining thirty-two families will still fulfill their original vows. After all, people will change.

"what happened."

Yawei was slightly taken aback, not sure why he said this, Lorenzo had no emotion in his eyes.

   "It's just that there are some things you should know. I hope you will not be surprised what you see next. Of course, you have to take care of your master."

  Everything about demons, if there is a battle, Lorenzo is likely to have no time to take care of Seleu, and then this old housekeeper will play his role.

  Lorenzo said, he crossed Yawei, opened the door and walked out. The carriage that cleared the organs was already waiting at the door.

  ……

   "Mr. Holmes, is this what is called ‘connection’? You always look like you are in constant trouble."

   Very unexpected, it was Merlin who was waiting for Lorenzo in the carriage.

   "Just treat me like you are complimenting me."

  Lorenzo answered casually, and got into the carriage.

  Under the **** of the Kestrel, Yawei also took Seleu and boarded the carriage at the rear. After the preparation, the dark convoy began to walk through the streets of Old Dunling.

   "I didn't expect you to be there in person."

   "This matter involves a future duke, and it cannot be overstated how strict it is."

  "Who are those people?"

   Lorenzo asked directly.

  Those mysterious invaders, although it is not clear who is using whom, it is clear that those people are related to demons.

   "We have investigated it, but there is good news and bad news."

  Merlin rarely sold it, but before Lorenzo asked him, he said it all. It seems that he also knows that the demon hunter is not in a good mood at the moment.

  "The good news is that under the control of our decontamination agency, we found out their identities overnight."

  This is indeed very efficient execution efficiency, Lorenzo nodded.

  "They are all survivors, survivors of the Glorious War."

  "Remains?"

  Lorenzo did not understand how this had something to do with the survivors.

   "Yes, survivors, because of historical reasons, although they live on the land of Inervig, in reality, we can't get along with them. Even if the policy advocates equal treatment, there are always people who hold hateful eyes."

  This reminded Lorenzo of the baron. In the eyes of some Inervigans, oppressing the survivors is a normal thing.

  "Under this kind of conflict, it gives many restless people an opportunity to take advantage of."

  Merlin told.

"This is not the part that is responsible for the elimination of agencies. We only fight against demons. There are other departments in this respect. But because of work, we have also learned a lot. Recently, the survivors in the south have integrated together, and the radicals have been established. The terrorist organization targeting Inervig."

   "It must have been made by those Gallunaro people."

  Lorenzo said that with the survivors’ social status and poor economic resources, they cannot achieve this level unless someone is behind them to help them.

   "In other words, these intruders are also members of the survivors terrorist organization?"

  Merlin nodded.

   "Yes, they have launched several attacks on the nobles in the south. This has attracted our attention, but I didn't expect them to touch the old Dunling."

  Lorenzo shook his head, he corrected.

   "Compared with the fact that they would arrive at Old Dunling, what really surprised us was that they got along with Master Lawrence."

   "Master Lawrence?"

  Merlin's expression became serious for an instant, and he began to understand why Lorenzo was so cold, which had something to do with Master Lawrence.

  "This has something to do with Master Lawrence?"

  The threat of Imam Lawrence in the decontamination agency is very high, and even the countermeasure team has made several plans for the possible harm that Imam Lawrence may bring.

"Um."

  Lorenzo nodded, he said.

   "If my inference is correct, Master Lawrence is instructing all this... His purpose is Seleuc."

   "Miss Stuart? What does he want to do?"

  Merlin also seemed very confused. If Master Lawrence attacked the Phoenix home, he could still understand a bit, but now he can't figure it out at all.

   "I don't know, if I know, we won't be so passive."

  Lorenzo looked at Merlin with full vigilance. If Master Lawrence can use erosion as a medium to invade the will of others at will, then those who are pursuing institutions and fighting against demons are likely to be invaded.

  In other words, Master Lawrence may invade at any time, and even that Merlin in front of him may have been invaded. Now it is Master Lawrence who is talking to him.

  This is the toughest enemy Lorenzo has ever encountered.

  "Compared to Master Lawrence, what's the other bad news for Merlin?"

  Lorenzo looked at Merlin's hollow eyes, and said that there was really no bad news that could touch Lorenzo.

   "The bad news is that the two are already in a state of brain death."

   Merlin replied.

"brain death?"

  This is a new term for Lorenzo.

  Because of the evangelical church’s preaching, dissecting a corpse was an act of blasphemy, which greatly hindered the progress of modern medicine at the time. Lorenzo remembers that when he was in the Wangli Medical College, there was a teacher who talked about this section of history.

  In order to find out the truth about the human body, the profession of gravediggers was born in the environment of the time. They dug up the dead who had just been buried, clearly marked them, and sold them to the hospital to advance the progress of anatomy.

  But even so, the exploration of the human brain is still pitiful. This requires not only corpses, but sometimes a lot of living experiments.

  Thinking of the various experimental conditions of the perpetual pump, Lorenzo seemed to understand something.

  "One of the words that we define death. This was discovered during the study of prefrontal lobe resection, which happens when the brain damage is too high.

   Severe coma, loss of spontaneous breathing ability and brainstem reflex. "

  Merlin tried to explain with words that Lorenzo could understand.

   "Under the action of external force, the body can still live healthy, but it is only a piece of meat that can breathe, and the soul in the body is dead."

   "Consciousness is completely annihilated."

  Lorenzo's eyes drooped slightly, thinking about this new knowledge.

   Consciousness annihilated...Brain death...

  The two intruders looked terrifying at the last moment.

Hello……

The hoarse voice reverberated in his ears, and Lorenzo had a new idea. Perhaps at that moment the two people were already dead, their minds were completely destroyed, so a new will stepped into it, separated by the distant Distance, say hello to yourself with someone else’s body.

  Master Lawrence.

  All the spearheads were directed at the mysterious apostate. He carries the Holy Grail. Lorenzo will not be surprised no matter what strange abilities the Master Lawrence possesses.

  After all, that is the source of the concept of monsters, the starting point of everything.

  Take a deep breath, and after a huge sense of powerlessness, there is the anger of vengeance, which is burning blazingly, driving Lorenzo to make the dead soul of this holy night continue to move forward.

   "So, what information can't be dug out?"

   "This is not possible, we will investigate how they entered the old Dunling, there will always be some clues for us, but it will definitely take a long time."

  Merlin was full of confidence in the execution of the cleansing mechanism, but looking at Lorenzo, the demon hunter seemed even more silent.

  "Then Mr. Holmes, can you explain the specific situation for me? The survivor, Master Lawrence, and Stuart’s heir, how did all this come together?"

  Lorenzo raised his head and looked at Merlin, he said lightly.

   "This will be a somewhat complicated story."

   "It doesn't matter, we still have a long time to have fun."

  Merlin opened the curtains and looked through the gap to the world outside the carriage. The huge industrial area was gradually approaching, like a jungle of steel. Only he knew where they were about to arrive now.

   Seeing this, Lorenzo hesitated slightly, but after hesitating, he made a decision. Now is not the time to hide the secret, he asked.

   "Merlin, do you know [Gap]?"

  Mysterious and strange things, it connects everyone.

  Maybe this master alchemist can answer for himself.

   Merlin shook his head, the mysterious alchemist said slowly.

"Mr. Holmes, compared to'words', I hope you can describe for me what the so-called "gap" is. After all, different countries have different cultures. Hunters who hunt demons also have different terms. ."

  Merlin leaned on the back of his chair and guided Lorenzo. He was an excellent scholar and an occult scholar.

  "Perhaps I know what [Gap] is, but in my knowledge, this thing is not called [Gap]."

   "Just like in the eyes of some lunatics, monsters that hate are not called demons, they see them as... gods."

  The alchemist said deeply, as if he was suggesting something.

  　After the hand is disabled, it is very hard to wipe the butt
