Many times, the right choice doesn't lead to a good result, but sometimes a bad decision can win a glimmer of hope.
Lorenzo slowly opened his eyes, emerging from the [Gap], the demon hunter now in a state of unprecedented disarray, but as if he had made some significant decision, he clenched his fist.
What an interesting description.
Recalling Watson's words, Lorenzo felt as if he was reacquainting himself with the demons.
As an ant, Lorenzo wanted to call for human help, so he piled up a heap of insect corpses... which for ants was winter food, but for the summoned humans was just a pile of rotten, disgusting trash.
Humans and demons are fundamentally different beings, with a barrier between their thoughts that's hard to cross.
One might even say, the demons' savage actions, in their eyes, are merely an interesting game?
Red Falcon pushed the door open and saw Lorenzo, interrupting his thoughts, and called out.
Lorenzo looked up at Red Falcon, rising and placing his weapon at his side.
"It's all here, this is Old Dunling, so we can ship things over from the Purification Mechanism."
Red Falcon said, handing over a silver case, marked with the Ouroboros, this item came from the Perpetual Motion Pump.
These were things Lorenzo requested when the Purification Mechanism arrived, thanks to their previous cooperation, the aid of supplies from the Purification Mechanism was swift.
"What about the identities of those people?"
Lorenzo took the box, then asked.
"They've been found out, but there are some problems, you need to take a look."
Red Falcon said with a slight frown, it seemed something had happened.
"Alright, I got it, hold on a moment."
Lorenzo said, his gaze turning to Selyu on the bed, he said.
"Selyu, we need to go."
The girl looked up, her eyes filled with tiredness and drowsiness.
"You'll know soon enough... we can't stay here anymore."
Lorenzo said mildly, Stuart's manor was so conspicuous, on some detailed maps, you could directly locate it.
Now the enemy is in the shadows, with the demons' eerie unknown power, no one knows how they will manifest.
"Of course, there's one more thing before that."
Lorenzo said, opening the case, from his angle he could clearly see the contents, which were rows of Florun Potion, hurriedly deployed from the Perpetual Motion Pump overnight.
But Lorenzo didn't take out those potions, instead, he grabbed another syringe nearby, hiding it under his hand, and walked towards Selyu.
"What are you going to do?"
Selyu looked at Lorenzo approaching and felt something was amiss.
"You need rest, Selyu."
He said, swiftly injecting a small amount of sedative into Selyu's body, the girl was first startled, then resisted fiercely, but before she could struggle any longer, a tidal wave of drowsiness engulfed her, and she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
The tension on her face relaxed, rendering her soft and gentle.
After patting Selyu's face to confirm the girl was truly asleep, Lorenzo picked her up and handed her to Yawei who had entered.
"If she has any unusual reactions, give her an injection of this."
He said, tossing a Florun Potion to Yawei.
The human will is limited; with Selyu's ordinary physical condition, prolonged fatigue would only make her increasingly fragile, unable to face the mental attacks.
"What happened to her?"
Looking at the sleeping Selyu, Yawei was unaware of the backstory and grew angry for a moment.
"Sleeping, just sleeping, we need to change places, and I need to prepare some things." Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on novel fire.net
Lorenzo's expression turned cold, like a calm hunter, he wiped the sword and crossbow, setting up the hunting traps.
His stern demeanor somewhat scared Yawei; in his eyes, despite being dangerous, this detective always exuded a neurotic vibe that relaxed others, but now that playful eccentricity was gone, leaving only a focused demon hunter.
"Yawei, you're actually Selyu's true support."
Lorenzo looked at the old housekeeper, Selyu was still young, she had a lot to learn, so the management of other families and the Stuart family's business fell to Yawei.
Moreover, as Lorenzo saw it, it had been so long no one knew if the remaining thirty-two families would honor their original vows, after all, humans change.
Yawei was slightly dazed, not understanding why he said that, no emotion was in Lorenzo's gaze.
"Just some things you should know, hope you don't get surprised by whatever happens next, of course, also take good care of your master."
All regarding demons, if a battle occurs, Lorenzo will likely be too occupied to care for Selyu, then this old housekeeper will assume his role.
With those words, Lorenzo bypassed Yawei, pushed the door open, and went out, the Purification Mechanism's carriage already waiting at the door.
"Mr. Holmes, is this what you call 'connection'? You're always a magnet for trouble."
Surprisingly, it was Merlin waiting for Lorenzo in the carriage.
"Just consider it a compliment."
Lorenzo replied casually, taking a seat in the carriage.
