Exorcist’s Self-Cultivation

At the staircase entrance.

Du Wei reached out directly to grab its face, intending to pull it into his hold.

Yet, it seemed as if it was startled and immediately retreated, disappearing into the shadows.

However, it had not vanished.

Because Du Wei could clearly feel an extremely greedy and desirous evil gaze within the darkness, staring unwaveringly at him, not faltering in the slightest.

This gaze belonged to the Evil Spirit Mary Shaw.

It seemed that in this instant, it developed a certain desire for him.

Was it because of Evil Spirit Transformation? Or something else?

Du Wei narrowed his eyes, clenched his pistol in his right hand, and fired a shot at the original owner of the hotel who rushed up to the top of the staircase and whose name was also Mary Shaw, an old woman.

A direct headshot.

Then he rushed into the other side of the corridor without looking back.

When he entered the hotel, he had found a path for a safe evacuation.

Crash…

Du Wei smashed the second floor’s glass with the butt of his gun, while the puppets rushed towards him like mad.

But it was useless.

Du Wei didn’t hesitate for a moment, directly jumped out of the second floor with a black umbrella on his back, a bag in possession, and his right hand still tied to a red balloon.

The distance to the ground was about four meters.

The rain was pouring down outside.

Before Du Wei even touched the ground, his body was already drenched by the rain, and due to the extreme cold, his body uncontrollably shivered for a moment.

Bang…

As his body hit the ground, Du Wei dove forward to dissipate most of the force, but since he wasn’t a professional, he inevitably sustained some minor injuries.

His right arm was grazed by the ground, creating a large cut that immediately started to bleed.

But this had no effect on Du Wei.

Because there was already something wrong with his Evil Spirit Transformation, and after coming into contact with Annabelle, it had even undergone aberration, resulting in the loss of all tactile sensation.

Even if he were chopped, he would not feel any pain.

Du Wei took a deep breath, and with a swift turn, he looked back.

Amidst the night, he immediately saw every window in the second floor of the hotel had a person standing in front of it.

Among them was Allen, whom he had seen during the day.

At this moment, Allen’s face was expressionless, his entire demeanour stiff and rigid.

He was another puppet, but far more terrifying than his own imitations.

A crazy idea inevitably crossed Du Wei’s mind.

After the Evil Spirit Mary Shaw killed these people, she turned them into puppets.

Everything seemed normal during the day, but at night, they became horror puppets driven by the Evil Spirit Mary Shaw.

And those puppets made to imitate him were clearly defective products.

Only by killing him and infusing his soul into them could they become ‘normal’ puppets.

Du Wei turned his head and glanced at the red balloon tied to his right hand.

Under the state of Spirit Vision, his sight was fixed on the Pennywise Clown within the balloon.

The two completely distinct Evil Spirits both shared some astonishing similarities.

It was as if they were both insulated from him, or rather, he suppressed them in certain ways.

The Clown represented fear, but what about the Evil Spirit Mary Shaw?

Du Wei couldn’t think of an answer and could only categorize it under fear as well…

But in a sense, the Evil Spirit Mary Shaw was more threatening than the Clown; it just couldn’t kill him directly, yet it could control puppets to indirectly harm him.

At that moment.

Du Wei’s pupils suddenly constricted.

Something’s not right…

There are too few puppets…

The Evil Spirit Mary Shaw couldn’t possibly have only recently appeared, the church is well aware of the terrifying legends about it, it should have been around for a long time.

But now, the dolls I’m seeing number only about twenty or so.

Suddenly, everything went white around me.

With a thunderous boom, thunder exploded above the sky, a lightning bolt streaking across the gloomy heavens.

Du Wei stood outside the inn, with Tulip Community right behind him.

At that moment,

Inside Tulip Community, all the doors of the rooms had already been opened, and the mechanical and regular footsteps began to echo, one by one, as people with lifeless, hollow eyes walked to their doorways.

Outside the community, more than a dozen men in police uniforms also gathered together.

Du Wei turned his stiff neck around, and reflected in his calm eyes was a dense crowd of hundreds of dolls of different genders and ages, walking towards him.

Moreover, in Spirit Vision, every doll had black strings on their bodies, just like those used to control puppets.

Those black threads converged together, extending and joining up into the sky.

Following these threads with his eyes, Du Wei’s gaze fell on an apartment building in a secluded corner of the community.

At the same time,

A woman with rotting skin, silver-white withered hair, and pitch-black eyes stood at the window on the fifth floor, revealing a greedy smile.

In this situation, the smile seemed exceedingly terrifying and sinister.

Du Wei took a deep breath and said with a grim look in his eyes, “It seems that the Evil Spirit from just now was only your perfect puppet; no wonder the Black Umbrella had no effect on it, because you are the real entity.”

"But why do I get the feeling that you really want to turn me into a doll… Is it because I can undergo Evil Spirit Transformation, or is there another reason?”

As he spoke, Du Wei didn’t hesitate to run towards the parking spot near the inn.

This Evil Spirit incident in Yard City had already gone beyond his control.

Originally, dealing with the Evil Spirit Mary Shaw would have been extremely simple for him, because such fright-related spirits have no effect on him.

Du Wei was their nemesis.

It was the same with Pennywise, and with Mary Shaw as well.

But from the beginning, Mary Shaw hid in the shadows, never coming into direct contact with Du Wei, controlling the things turned into dolls to kill him.

One or two dolls might be manageable, but hundreds of them, even if they stood still, he’d have to fight until dawn with just a gun and a knife.

Moreover, Du Wei was never good at fighting with Evil Spirits to begin with.

He could hit the dolls with every shot, also because they were very close.

The easiest Evil Spirit to deal with turned out to be the most dangerous one…

…

Du Wei pulled open the car door and immediately started the vehicle.

And those dolls, they all revealed a sinister smile in unison, watching as Du Wei sped away.

The torrential rain grew heavier, soon obscuring the dolls, making them appear blurry and indistinct.

Suddenly…

Several hundred dolls suddenly cleared some space, and some dolls disappeared directly.

Inside the car,

Du Wei floored the accelerator while taking out his phone to call Bishop Slivka.

Previously when they met, he and the two bishops had exchanged phone numbers, and now was the perfect time to make use of them.

The reason he didn’t call Father Tony was that the distance was too far…

Whereas Slivka and Bishop Jon were in Esselgreen, and the two cities were right next to each other.

He needed support now.

Just as Du Wei was making the call, an incredibly terrifying scene was unfolding throughout Yard City.

In the houses near Tulip Community, some people who were deep in sleep suddenly opened their eyes.

With a vacant and lifeless gaze.

On their bodies, there was a presence of black strings…

Just as Du Wei figured, there weren’t that few dolls; in fact, there were frighteningly more…

In a sense, the Evil Spirit Mary Shaw incident in itself was transforming into something as bizarre as the haunted highway in Massas City.

But Du Wei’s arrival, combined with his own special attributes, had a very strong attraction to the Evil Spirit Mary Shaw, causing this incomplete transformation to erupt prematurely.
