Carrying the dark box on his back, Lorenzo returned home slowly after sunset. The fog rose on the road, and the light reflected by the 5 colors of light through the fine water droplets was psychedelic and frustrating.

After a brief greeting to Mrs. Van Lude, Lorenzo returned to his room and locked the door tightly.

Lorenzo took out the only information he had obtained at Earth Palace that night, a bill. One of the reasons Lorenzo rescued Eve at that time was this bill. At that time, it left Earth Palace with Eve and the boat, so it is well preserved. The writing is clearly visible.

Human memory is unreliable. No matter how hard you try to remember it, you may forget it in the end, and you won’t even realize that the forgetting happened.

So no matter what organization it is, it needs a bill, a bill that records expenses in detail, even if it is the Saab gang.

Swiping your finger on the account, looking back and forth, the things described above are very messy, it seems that the person in charge of the account is not very professional, and their expenditures are messy and written together irregularly. Some transactions may be more important. Use strange symbols instead.

Lorenzo looked for a long time without finding a clue. After thinking for a while, he calmly took out a cigarette with Parsnip wrapped in it. Presumably the weird Spirit Vision might be able to help him, but Lorenzo was also hesitating, his connection with the darkness. It has undoubtedly deepened a lot, and now he consumes this herb, he doesn’t know what will happen.

But…what about him? It’s just a cigarette in case of trouble.

Thinking of Lorenzo, he lit the fire and opened the box brought back from the tomb. There were more things in it than expected, besides the sword, there were many bottles and jars.

Picking up the rest assured blade, it feels like holding a cold frost, inhaling strongly, sucking the Spiritist’s herbs into the lungs, staring at the bill, and then the entire world is plunged into darkness.

The familiar sound of sea tide sounded again, and the damp wind carried the smell of the ocean, and the angry waves slapped the shore and smashed into white flowers on the rocks.

Lorenzo lowered his head, his expression was rare and solemn.

There is soft ground underfoot, and withered grass dies on it.

This is such a clear and real environment, if it weren’t for Lorenzo’s sober consciousness, he would even think he had come to this unknown place in person.

The advantage is that he can see more clues through Spirit Vision, but the disadvantage is that he has a deeper connection with the darkness.

The faint green rays of light lit up not far in front of him, like a burning green sun, and it seemed that some kind of huge pupils were staring at the world.

Looking up, that is the lighthouse Lorenzo keeps seeing. At this moment, he is right in front of him. The moist entity is covered with moss and vines. The top of the tower emits an unknown light. If nothing else, the mysterious Sacred Coffin at this moment It should be stored in it.

This is the source of everything.

After a brief surprise, Lorenzo calmed down. He needed more clues. Irvine was everywhere on the coast. There were at least 100 such lighthouses. He had to find characteristics that could distinguish them.

But when he looked around four times, a hoarse voice sounded, so the pitch black shadow enveloped him, the weird back was facing the green light, and the warm air like a giant bear gushed out of the bloody mouth.

Lorenzo is not afraid. He has Spirit Vision many times. Although the things he sees are part of the reality, most of it is still illusory. It is only the herbs and the unknown power.

So it can be said that everything in front of him is illusory, only the clue is real, but just when he thought so, the shadow in front of him launched an attack, like a temptation, to drive away the flies in the air at will, and simply wave Down, smashed at Lorenzo.

Instinctively warning Lorenzo, without even thinking that Lorenzo directly raised the blade in his hand to cut down the illusory shadow, so the warm blood sprinkled on Lorenzo’s face.

The feeling was so real, it was true that every fluff of Lorenzo could perceive the sensation of blood flowing across his cheeks, and every nerve was surging with electricity.

This is true?

The shadow roared, and the huge force hit the blade. The sharp claw left a blood mark on Lorenzo’s arm. There was no time for Lorenzo to judge the truth. He immediately waved the blade again, but the illusory shadow was there. His sword was blown away like ink, and the entire dark world collapsed, and the familiar room reappeared in front of him.

Still keeping the action of swinging the sword, there was nothing in front of him.

Unconsciously tobacco has burned out halfway, Spirit Vision is over.

Lorenzo slumped on the chair in a cold sweat, slowly placing the blade on the table, and after a long pause, pain came from his arm.

It was a shallow wound, and the ghost wiped his face, but there was scarlet blood on his palm.

That is…real.

Everything that Spirit Vision saw was real, and at that moment Lorenzo fought against the monster inside Spirit Vision.

This did not happen by accident, and it had never happened before.

Taking a deep breath, a terrifying conjecture arises in Lorenzo’s heart.

His connection with the darkness is deeper, so deep that Lorenzo can briefly and truly stop in that world inside in Spirit Vision.

This is not good news, as he said to Eve, you and the dark creature live in a world, but the two cannot see each other, and now Lorenzo can see them, and they can see too It’s Lorenzo.

“Damn it…”

Lorenzo cursed casually, thinking about putting the sword beside him, trying to increase some sense of security.

That is the standard weapon of the Demon Hunter Order. It is made of alloy and plated with Holy Silver. It is a deadly weapon for Demon. Because it looks like a long nail, it is called the Nail sword.

At first Lorenzo used the sword to a large extent because it looks like this weapon, except for its weight and much less lethality to Demon.

“Lorenzo! What are you doing!”

The sharp voice of Mrs. Van Lude rang downstairs, and Lorenzo realized that his agitated sword knocked over the bookcase just now, and the sound caught Mrs. Van Lude’s attention.

“I fell and it’s okay!”

Lorenzo answered loudly. Mrs. Van Lude is so old, so don’t have anything to do with Demon.

He lifted the bookcase up and looked at the books scattered on the floor. Lorenzo was not in the mood to clean it up. He sat back in his seat, his eyes suddenly caught on the bill, and the thick pages turned to a new page, bright red blood. Dyed on it.

Lorenzo seemed to have discovered something, so he saw the blood stain one of the deals red.

That was an address. Lorenzo turned up his map directly, but after searching for it for a long time, he could not find the address in the transaction.

Frozen, Lorenzo remembered that with Irvine’s amazing expansion speed, the city-states in the territory were changing every day, and his maps were not timely enough.

As if thinking of something, Lorenzo strode out of her room with the bill and came downstairs. Mrs. Van Lude was sitting on the sofa and reading the newspaper. Seeing Lorenzo was so flustered, she took off the thick reading glasses. .

“Are you stupid?”

“No, I want to find something.”

Lorenzo answered, and then stood in the center of the living room. It was a huge map. The mountains and cities were painted with ink on yellowed kraft paper, and all the information of the entire Irvine territory was drawn in detail. Even some hidden things would Replace the mark on it with a symbol.

It was a military map from the time of Glorious War. Compared to Lorenzo’s map, it recorded more details. As for timeliness, you can even find spare resources buried underground by the Irvine Army at that time, even the city that no longer exists. All have records.

This thing was supposed to be sealed in the military warehouse, but when Mrs. Van Lude retired, she didn’t know how she did it. She smuggled out this big map and hung it carefree in the living room. on.

She said that this thing commemorates her military career more than a medal of honor. Sometimes sitting in the living room with her, Mrs. Van Lude always points to the land on the map, and said to Lorenzo in a majestic manner, “I see From here to here on the map, I shot it all down.”

“What are you looking for?”

“An address.”

Lorenzo’s line of sight looked back and forth along the Sea Territory on the map.

It was a transportation deal. Saab delivered a large amount of food to a small town called Ender. There were countless towns in Irvine, but in Spirit Vision, Lorenzo saw the lighthouse, so he narrowed it down to the coastal town. But he still couldn’t find it even though.

“No…”

After watching for a long time, Lorenzo didn’t find the town on the map, and at this moment Mrs. Van Lude came over.

“Ender?”

Wearing those thick reading glasses, Mrs. Van Lude squinted slightly.

“Are you looking for this town?”

“Yes, a coastal town, but there is no on the map…”

“Coastal? Of course not.”

Mrs. Van Lude heard the two words coastal and immediately gave the answer.

“No? Why?”

Lorenzo turned his head, he didn’t understand why Mrs. Van Lude said that.

“Because of the Glorious War, there is a White Tide Strait between us and Galunalo. In the 100-year war, the fleets of both sides fought many times. Coastal towns have long been transformed into military bases or moved into the interior. It was not until the end of the Glorious War more than a decade ago that there was a gradual return of population in coastal areas.”

Mrs. Van Lude is a person who has experienced war, and she knows more about this than Lorenzo.

She slid her dry fingers across the map, she said.

“Military maps should be viewed in conjunction with symbol books. We usually use symbols and numbers to represent a place, so that even if the map falls in the hands of the enemy, they can’t understand them without a symbol book. Look at the three-corner symbols, they represent that The place of the town.”

Without the name of the city, there are only rows of three-corner symbols suffixed with numbers along the coast.

Looking at Mrs. Van Lude, Lorenzo thought for a while and said tentatively.

“Madam, which town do you think needs food from the outside world?”

“You mean the supply line?”

“Probably yes…”

According to that transaction record, Saab invested a lot of money to deliver food to the mysterious Ender town, and mobilized directly from the port of Rendona to the unknown town of Ender.

“Um… probably here.”

Mrs. Van Lude pointed his finger to the extreme edge of the map, which is the western side of Irvine Island. The western side of Irvine has not yet been developed, and there are not even many railways.

“Because of war issues, Irvine has very strict control over the places where he communicates with neighboring countries, except for the North and the West. Our North is the Northern Sea Territory. The enemy has to endure the ice floes if they want to attack and have to go a long way. With the group of Viking pirates, there is an endless ocean to the west, and our main city is concentrated in the center, where they can only eat hay when they land.”

“So there is only this direction, far away from major cities, no ports, even fishing boats will not pass, food cannot be self-sufficient, and external supplies are needed.”

“Then why not the north?”

Lorenzo is still a little uncertain.

Mrs. Van Lude gave Lorenzo a blank look and then said.

“It’s a child who lives in the new era. It really hasn’t suffered. The northern part of Irvine is covered with snow and ice for many years. Before the emergence of the new steam engine, the frozen soil there could not be developed, let alone the establishment of towns. In recent years, the port of Rendona The expansion of the North has no development value.”

Listening to Mrs. Van Lude’s words, Lorenzo nodded and focused his eyes on the west of Irvine, where the three-corner symbols are not dense. As Mrs. Van Lude said, Irvine’s not at all development in the West, the symbol The west became thinner and thinner until it disappeared.

Suddenly a symbol jumped into Lorenzo’s eyes. It was a symbol that appeared outside the land, a small town built in the sea.

“Madam, do you understand what is here?”

Obviously there is a three-point symbol representing a small town, but it is on the sea. This is a military map, and Lorenzo doesn’t think this is caused by a drawing trial and error.

“Well… it’s probably a small town swallowed by seawater. This is very common. Sometimes the water level will rise along the coast, submerging the low land, but it will show up when the tide is low, so the symbol will be there. Right.”

“So?”

It was a weird feeling. Lorenzo was obviously unable to determine the location of Ender Town before, but after listening to Mrs. Van Lude all this, he was definitely there.

Suddenly remembered what Burlau said to him at first.

intuition……

Then Sacred Coffin was tempting him forward, pulling his instinct to pursue it.

“By the way, are you planning to travel?” Mrs. Van Lude looked at Lorenzo curiously. The west is considered a no-man’s land.

“Okay.”

Lorenzo answered.

“Um… Then I recommend you take this line.”

Mrs. Van Lude pointed to a dashed line running through the west, which was a railway.

“This is a military route. At first, everyone felt that they could not win the Glorious War, so they prepared to evacuate to the west after the southern coast to continue to resist. But as you know, we drove the enemy out of Old Turin and won. After the war, the railway was stopped.

But in recent years, someone developed a tourism project to the west and restarted this route. I think you should use it. “

Mrs. Van Lude sat back on the sofa and continued to read the newspaper. After thinking about it, she said again.

“Lorenzo, there are a lot of weapons in the basement. If you don’t get wet, you can use them. They are all military supplies. The quality is definitely better than those sold by profiteers in the lower city district.”

Lorenzo was just about to go up the stairs when he staggered when he heard this sentence.

“What are you talking about?”

“En? Do you think I will believe your nonsense?”

Mrs. Van Lude raised his head and looked at Lorenzo, his turbid eyes seemed to penetrate people’s hearts.

“Travel? You will travel? Who believes it! It was Burlau who introduced you to live here! Compared to traveling, you are going to kill people!”

Lorenzo always thought he was hiding well in front of Mrs. Van Lude, who would have thought that this shrewd old lady would have seen it through.

“No… compared to this… military supplies?”

Lorenzo was a little dazed, meaning that he lived in an arsenal for 6 years and then didn’t know it.

The scene was a bit awkward, Mrs. Van Lude was foul-mouthed.

“What’s the matter? The medals I’ve received can cover the entire wall, but the pension is only a little bit per month. What happened to the few boxes of munitions I gave it to sell?”

This old lady is no longer as simple as hell… I have seen Nina Wool, and Lorenzo has not seen Nina so bold with just reasons and confident.

“I thought I could make a lot of money, but it sounded like military supplies. The aggressive bulls, ghosts, and snakes in the lower city district didn’t dare to take over, so I put it now.”

Turning his eyes, Mrs. Van Lude said finally.

“By the way, Lorenzo, I said in advance, if you die, I will sell the things in that room for rent.”

Lorenzo’s face went dark, this damn old lady…
