Today’s Old Turin looks dull again. A faint mist overflows from the ground. The chimney rises with gray and black plumes of smoke, one after another, propping up the distance between Heaven and Earth. The machine runs slowly, pushing the miraculous creation. In between, the airship, like a giant whale, swims during the period, like an illusion in another world.

For people like Lorenzo who have lived in Old Turin for a long time, all this has indeed become accustomed. This is the forefront of steam technology. Everyday all new things are born, but for those from afar, everything here is incomparable. Novelty.

The street lights are already covered with banners, dyeing this gray world a bit of color. Many strange strangers can be seen on the streets. They are walking excitedly on the streets of Old Turin, looking at the sky in the clouds. Of the shadows.

Because of the visits of missions, tourists have also increased. Most of them visit factories. Such a large-scale mechanical assembly line is extremely rare in their country. In this case, it has become a scenic spot.

In order to maintain law and order, the mounted police have also increased. The roads seem a bit crowded and lively, but these have nothing to do with Lorenzo. Under his coat is the weapon that Joey brought. He is very busy, busy to solve the case, go kill.

The cleansing agency was busy searching for the whereabouts of “Revelation”, and for this reason the remaining Knight Commanders were transferred back to Old Turin, so those Illegal immigrants could only rely on Lorenzo himself.

Just like the connection inside, Lorenzo always has a strange feeling. It seems that this unremarkable case will lead him to some grand vortex inside.

You can clearly see that the area bordering the lower city district has a lot of police force. By bypassing the sight of the mounted police, Lorenzo sneaked into the lower city district again. He needs to find the rat king. That guy must know something.

Lorenzo was searching for the trails of the bad rats. As usual, these homeless people are very common. They wander in 4 places, sometimes not only in the lower city district, but I don’t know why Lorenzo walked here for a long time, and he was a stray. Han didn’t even see it, as if they had disappeared overnight.

His gaze was somewhat wary, he lowered the brim of his hat, completely concealed his face in the shadows, and put his hands in his pockets. Just like before, his pockets were torn, and his hands could be reached directly under the coat and held tight. Gun handle.

Something happened… In the lower city district, the atmosphere is not right.

Although the lower city district was chaotic and dirty, it had never been so lifeless. As Lorenzo went deeper, he couldn’t see other people until a mouse flashed past his eyes.

This thing about mice is too common, but there are not many mice with chains tied to their tails, and they are the yellow chains that Lorenzo has seen.

He watched for 4 weeks, seeming to want to find the guy who was secretly manipulating everything, but he found nothing, and the mouse almost disappeared from sight.

Lorenzo did not even think about it and followed along, combined with his previous pursuit in the rat’s nest, this warning yellow is to indicate the position, the mysterious rat king wants to let himself go somewhere.

It may be a trap or a clue. Lorenzo doesn’t care about this anymore. His clothes are full of weapons. At this moment, the detective is fully armed.

The mouse finally led Lorenzo to a distorted building, just like other houses in the lower city district. It was a properly dilapidated house. The door was open and the inside was dark. Lorenzo walked in and found that it was basically a vacant house. There was nothing but the disgusting smell.

“I’m really more and more curious about who you are…”

Lorenzo looked at the empty room, paused for a while and suddenly thought of something. He walked to the corner, threw away the folding knife, and thrust it into the ground forcefully. The sharp blade with no difficulty penetrated the hidden wooden cover. .

Just like when Lorenzo went to the Rat’s Nest for the first time, Rat King seemed to have anticipated all Lorenzo’s actions, and the prompts were just right.

Slashing open the hidden wooden cover forcefully, a dark hole appeared in front of Lorenzo.

“No…”

Sniffing the stench, Lorenzo knew exactly where the hole led, but he had to leave for the truth of all this.

Leaping down, there was a fragile sound from the darkness. The mouse was waiting for Lorenzo. Seeing Lorenzo coming down, it set off again, guiding Lorenzo forward in this complicated tunnel.

Lorenzo didn’t know how long he had been going forward, and when he lost track of the mouse, a light appeared at the end of the tunnel.

But before Lorenzo leaned out to observe the outside world, the turbulent steam poured in from the outside, and the moist high-temperature gas steamed Lorenzo for a while. Fortunately, the gas seemed to have overflowed for a long time, and the temperature dropped a lot, otherwise the transient high temperature could easily Burn and steam people.

Wiping off the water stains on his face, Lorenzo breathed heavily, and moved towards the entrance of the cave again. He seemed to know where he was.

Sticking out his head, the outside world was dim, only the faint light above his head, but also due to disrepair for a long time, the light was not strong, and it flashed out from time to time.

The steel creation breathed steadily, as if falling asleep inside, and from time to time there was a mechanical turning sound, like its dream.

It slept peacefully. In the dark, I don’t know how long it’s been silent like this. Lorenzo saw it breathe out again in the dimness. Hot steam overflowed from the cracks in the machinery, surging out like a wave of a dam, filling up instantly. The whole space.

Lorenzo directly hid in the cave, and ran a few steps vigorously, as far as possible from the entrance of the cave, but the rush of air still caught up with him, he staggered and fell to the ground, followed by the hot steam The waves passed over his body, and after the high temperature, it became cold.

Lorenzo couldn’t help sneezing from cold to hot.

The outside world is Pillar of Forge. To be precise, it is a certain exhaust part of Pillar of Forge. It must be the place where steam overflows every day. It is released from here, guided by pipes, and returned to the ground.

It’s just that Lorenzo didn’t expect it to be so huge and so deadly.

Just like its name, the main structure of Pillar of Forge is columnar, like a stone pillar inserted deep into the ground, but no one knows how deep it is, even its creator. The same is true. It is said that Pillar of Forge has 1000 design drawings, which weigh more than 20 tons.

Of course, this is only the initial scale of Pillar of Forge. After so many years of technological updates and the whimsical ideas of those researchers, more and more new features are placed on it. Pillar of Forge follows The expansion of Old Turin grew savagely together, to the present look.

Lorenzo stood at the entrance of the cave. The dimness did not affect him. He could see the steel barrier spreading to the end of his line of sight. There were countless exhaust holes on the rusty surface. The whole air was humid and warm. Of stagnant water.

It seemed that the exhaust was temporarily over, and Lorenzo jumped down the hole vigilantly and stepped on the wet ground.

There are still a few corpses from where he came down. It looks like they have been dead for a long time. The flesh is rotted and entangled with the clothes. It looks disgusting. The arms are raised with difficulty. This is the last posture of the deceased. Up.

Lorenzo can easily guess their identity and cause of death. They should be bad rats. The winter in Old Turin can be extremely difficult. They tried to keep warm here, but they were suffocated and steamed instantly by the hot steam.

Looking away, Lorenzo knew very well that there must be something with rat king guiding him here. He moved forward in the dark, looking a little anxiously.

He didn’t dare to get too far away from the entrance of the cave. Although he was a Demon Hunter and had encountered any critical situation, Lorenzo had not been steamed yet, he was still a little panicked.

Not knowing when the next exhaust will be, Lorenzo is worried that he is too far away from the hole, but there is no shelter.

After a violent walk, the sound of the machine’s turning sounded, and the hot gas was about to be released. At this time, Lorenzo also saw the way out. On the other side of the wall, there was a ladder extending to the faint light above. Maintenance access.

With almost no time to think, Lorenzo moved towards the pit lane and ran over, he was confident to get there before the steam swallowed himself.

The so-called stamina is probably like this. He jumped up and stepped back and forth on the rusty iron ladder. At the same time, the high-temperature gas began to release, and there was a whistling wind in the darkness.

Suddenly Lorenzo stomped down. The iron ladder was eroded by damp day and night, and it was already fragile. Under Lorenzo’s pedaling, it could no longer bear it, and it broke apart.

Lorenzo directly swung the folding knife, just as he did in the rat’s nest, cutting into the wall and using force to advance again. The door lock was already rusty, but fortunately, Lorenzo, a physique, was very suitable for violent unlocking. The handle hit the door lock. In the sour scream, Lorenzo opened the door, closing it forcefully when the hot gas hit.

He was inside a safe space, and the air was muddy and hot, just like inside a steamer.

Lorenzo became more curious about what would be waiting for him next. Of course, if he had time in the future, he would also like to explore this mysterious Underground World. No one knows what kind of strangeness lies in these shadows that cannot be illuminated. Things.

The passage was very long and there were traces of someone coming inside. Lorenzo kept moving towards a deeper place, and after an unknown amount of time, he came back to the outside world, but this time it was different from what he thought.

It is a huge underground space. At the end of the passage is the machinery of Pillar of Forge, but I don’t know who renovated it. You can see many buildings that did not originally belong to these machinery. Go, Lorenzo can still see some silhouettes walking in it.

The sound of crash-bang came from it, and Lorenzo fell on his knees. His position was higher, and the iron ladder leading to it seemed to be damaged long ago. Those people didn’t realize there was such a hidden intersection here.

After Lorenzo hid in the pipe, because the space was located in the dark underground, only a few searchlights at the top maintained the lighting, but also because of its limitations, it could not light up the whole situation, and Lorenzo hid in the dark without being found.

“Are these people… looking for trash?”

Lorenzo looked at it intently. This seems to be a certain water inlet of Pillar of Forge. Because the boiler needs water, River Thames is diverted and introduced into Pillar of Forge. This should be one of several water inlets, but this group of people is at the water inlet. A barrier was built on the channel to filter out the debris in the water.

No… it’s not just filtering the debris, they purposefully find what they want from the debris, one after another, boxes wrapped in tarps.

“smuggling?”

Lorenzo was a little surprised. Although smuggling is very common in lower city districts, for example, in order to smuggle small objects, some people swallow the objects in their abdomen, or hide them in buckets, and then fix the buckets on the bottom of the boat. It’s been so long, and Lorenzo hasn’t seen anything like this.

They throw items directly into a certain fixed section of River Thames, and then those items will arrive here with the current.

Although it’s not a genius, but this can be considered is a strange idea.

So what did rat king do to guide himself here?

Lorenzo approached a little curiously. He was hiding in the shadows, approaching the underground dock a little bit, his hands were already clenched with the jackknife, his eyes were cold.

“Is this all the goods?”

Someone asked.

“Yes, the last box.” Someone replied.

The man pried the box open, and even though the water was released, some water still got inside, but this didn’t affect much. He looked down at the potion soaked in the water, with a blurry color on it. .

“The investigation is getting more and more stringent now. The Dao Foundation of hallucinogen was blocked. Now only we have the stock. This is a big opportunity.” Someone said.

“Great fortune has nothing to do with us, but just a little soup is enough.”

The man said, put his hand into the box, and took one out.

“This shipment is complete, there is nothing damaged…but there is a damage standard on it.”

He looked towards the four-week-old guys. Everyone had a smirk on their faces. After all, this kind of transportation will inevitably cause some damage to the goods. This batch of goods is so complete, but it also needs to be “damaged” artificially. Only them are here. , No one will find out.

The man gave out the hallucinogen, and someone impatient injected directly here, showing the beauty of going to paradise on his face.

The pace swayed, and then fell down, causing everyone to laugh, but these people hadn’t realized the danger lurking in the darkness.

Lorenzo hid in the shadows and approached slowly, his face was cold, and he suddenly understood everything.

Despite the distance, despite the darkness here, when the person injected the hallucinogen, Lorenzo still clearly noticed the disturbing breath.

Demon’s breath.

The man who fell to the ground got up, the illusion had already worked in his mind, his gaze drifted in chaos, but suddenly something caught his gaze, and he looked towards the darkness.

The burning blazing white slowly rose in the darkness. It may be that dreamlike illusion was at work. He rubbed his eyes, and as expected, the blazing white disappeared. He smiled stupidly and relaxed heartily.
