Fear renders one senseless.
Goliath Viktor was completely engulfed in fear at this moment. She didn’t receive a response; instead, she drew a terrifying voice.
She knew it was the Evil Spirit that was after her life.
If regrets were useful, Goliath Viktor would certainly be the most regretful of all.
She felt utterly innocent, having just joined the Veda Sect. She hadn’t even had the chance to take revenge on Du Wei yet, but somehow, she found herself inexplicably targeted by the Evil Spirit.
What in the world was going on?
Goliath Viktor had no idea what was happening; all she could do was run forward mechanically.
But in the darkness, her vision was hindered. Without realizing it, she stepped into emptiness.
Goliath Viktor only felt her body lose balance before tumbling into a pool of blood. The foul-smelling blood from all around forced its way into her ears, mouth, and nose.
She coughed violently, flailing one hand to grab the edge of the blood pool to steady herself, and managed to lift her head above the surface, gasping for a deep breath of air.As she inhaled, she coughed out the blood.
The agony of near-asphyxiation drove her further toward breakdown.
Not everyone can maintain extreme sanity and calmness like Du Wei.
The despair that the Evil Spirit brought to ordinary people was just too overwhelming.
Goliath Viktor completely lost her senses, desperately trying to climb out of the blood pool, unbothered by the cuts she received from the pool’s sharp edges.
But as soon as she got most of her body out…
She froze in her tracks…
Her scalp felt an icy chill, a sharp dagger pressed against her head.
“No… please don’t…”
Pleading was useless.
The dagger, with an irresistible force, pierced straight through her scalp and into her skull.
Brother Shadow’s previous method of killing, mockingly referred to as ‘twisting a wet towel’ by Tom, seemed to have changed since it acquired the dagger. It appeared to prefer using the dagger to kill rather than simply twisting off heads.
However, its fondness for heads had not changed.
Even if the method of killing had altered, its affinity for heads remained.
With a splash,
Goliath Viktor’s corpse sank into the blood pool.
In the darkness, the remaining three bishops, along with the cultists, heard none of these sounds.
They could only hear the sounds of their own footsteps as they ran.
Brother Shadow, after receiving the dagger from Du Wei, had become somewhat different. It seemed able to affect one’s hearing, or more precisely, to isolate sound.
The slaughter was continuing…
Within this hall, whether evil corpses or humans, all were the prey of Brother Shadow.
It would grow more terrifying, and its efficiency in reaping lives would become faster.
…
Elsewhere.
Outside Goliath Winery.
Du Wei, holding a Black Umbrella, emerged from the small woods. He looked calmly at the winery in the rain and took out his cell phone to call the Yard City police.
“I’m Tom’s friend, Du Wei, it has been confirmed that people from the Veda Sect and Goliath Viktor have conspired together; right now, they are all inside the winery. There’s been a terrifying incident involving an Evil Spirit here, and I need your support.”
On the other end of the line, someone asked in shock, “Mr. Du Wei, your claim is incredibly hard to believe. How could the heir of the Viktor family possibly collude with the Veda Sect?”
Du Wei spoke evenly, “That is indeed a problem, but I can’t explain it to you. In any case, you’d better come quickly, otherwise, the situation might become very serious.”
He didn’t want Brother Shadow to kill all the members of the Veda Sect, but he also didn’t want to let them get away.
Therefore, he needed the Yard City police to handle the aftermath.
To send all those remaining cultists to jail.
Whether they faced life imprisonment or execution was not his concern anymore.
The hands of the Veda Sect’s cultists were drenched in blood; not a single one of them was innocent.
The church and the officials will punish them most severely…
Nothing else matters, these are the rules.
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone before someone continued, “Mr. Du Wei, you need to know, all of New York’s police are stationed on the streets. If we send a large number of people, someone definitely has to back us up.”
Du Wei calmly said, “If your boss Tom was with you, he would probably have you relieved from your post by now. Start the operation, and let Tom bear all the consequences.”
The person on the other end then said firmly, “Yes, sir.”
Tom is currently the head of the New York police, and even if he went to Yard City on duty, it was just a gold-plated assignment.
The New York police still follow his orders.
Of course…
Du Wei hadn’t mentioned this matter to Tom because he was worried that Tom would tell Father Tony he had acted against the Veda Sect, leading to unnecessary suspicion.
In public, he always maintained the image of a psychologist and an exorcist.
To launch a slaughter against the Veda Sect, and even use an Evil Spirit… it seemed extremely extreme no matter how you looked at it.
Therefore, concealment was always better.
However, Du Wei wasn’t setting Tom up, because he always had control over the situation.
Every time he brought Tom in to take the fall, Tom always ended up profiting.
Otherwise, his recent rapid promotions wouldn’t have happened.
“Solving a vicious cultist case should add a significant mark on Tom’s promotion path.”
Du Wei wasn’t very familiar with the police promotion system.
But he knew that this time Tom might strike it rich.
Suddenly…
Du Wei glanced at his right hand and stayed his gaze on the pattern that looked like three pointers for a while.
“Besides building up Evil Spirit forces, I also need to give my friend a hand. Only then can I make better use of my connections.”
But as soon as he finished speaking,
Du Wei raised his eyebrows and turned to look towards the entrance of the winery.
In the rain, an older woman stumbled frantically towards the door.
Her left shoulder had been chopped off, and blood wouldn’t stop flowing.
With disheveled hair, she looked like a ghost…
The woman noticed Du Wei standing in the rain with an umbrella. With bloodshot eyes, as if she had seen her nemesis, she screamed and sped up.
“It’s you… it was all your doing. You damned exorcist, you’re definitely going to hell…”
She gnashed her teeth and bellowed out the name that almost drove her to madness: “Du Wei…”
“You devil, I will make you pay!”
As she said this, the only hand she had left held a dagger and stabbed at Du Wei.
The distance between the two was no more than five meters.
Just as she said, she wanted to make Du Wei pay.
But…
Du Wei, expressionless, took out a pistol from his pocket, unlocked the safety, and without hesitation, squeezed the trigger.
Tom had secured him a concealed carry permit before.
Legitimate self-defense isn’t a crime…
With a bang, the gunshot rang out.
The bullet went straight through the woman’s thigh.
She screamed and fell to the ground, mud and water splashing everywhere.
Du Wei’s tone was somewhat complicated, “I meant to hit your stomach…”
But it didn’t matter, because he sensed the presence of Brother Shadow.
Splurt…
A dagger emerged from the muddy puddle, with a light swing, it slashed across the woman’s head…
