Chapter 56: Chit chat time

Views:

Under the pitch-black night, the strong lights casually scanned the earth. The dazzling light was like the eyes of a giant, examining the wonders lurking in the darkness.

It was already late at night and the temperature was obviously very low, but the machines all around were roaring and running, huge amounts of steam were released from the engines, slightly burning the skin.

Because of Lorenzo's powerful attack, the ordinary carriages of the entire Glory train were basically burned into black frames, but fortunately they were of no use in the first place, so the several-meter-high heavy crane appeared, and the heavy iron hooks smashed down, dragging them off the tracks one by one, and then placed the armored carriages that had been prepared in the dark one by one.

“So many people died, what should we do?”

Eve felt a little sad looking at the charred corpses on the ground. Although they were all demons, they were all living humans a few hours ago, with their own lives, their own families, and their own wishes.

But now none of this matters. They are dead, and maybe no one will even remember them anymore. They just left silently.

"We have a department dedicated to handling follow-up incidents, just leave it to them."

Red Falcon refers to the secret department called the Scavengers. After every battle against demons, they are the ones who clean up the battlefield and eradicate any possible pollution, etc.

Most of them are people who retired from the Purge Agency, retained their knowledge about demons, and retired in a department that does not require direct combat.

It is truly a "conscientious" company that doesn't let people go even after they retire.

The girl squatted on the edge of the platform with her head down, and it was unclear what she was thinking.

After Lorenzo's conversation with Shrike, she began to understand that this group of people were from a secret anti-demon organization called the Purification Agency, which directly served Queen Victoria.

The internal levels are divided according to the myth of Ingwig and the Knights of the Round Table, including the Grand Knight, the Upper Knight, the Lower Knight, and the Apprentice Knight. The Red Falcon and others that Eve sees now are the Upper Knights. They have resistance to the erosion of demons and are the backbone of the team.

"In other words, you also need to go to that Ende Town?" Lorenzo looked at the busy crowd and Eve squatting in a corner.

"Yes."

Shrike was not willing to say much and just gave a brief reply.

Lorenzo found this somewhat amusing, and he looked at the Shrike and said.

"We need to exchange information, and wasn't it you who entrusted me with this task in the first place?"

Without Shrike's commission, Lorenzo would not have been so deeply involved in this incident. It can be said that it was Shrike who caused all this.

"I found a clue. That thing is called the Holy Coffin, right? It is lying in a small town called Ende, waiting for us to retrieve it."

"I didn't expect you to find out so much."

Shrike did not show too much surprise at this, but was merely amazed. He had always had a high opinion of Lorenzo, and it would be unlike him if he could not find this more secret information.

"I am a detective after all am I not?"

"Part-time demon hunter?"

"A former demon hunter to be exact. I'm retired."
