American Exorcism Male God

Chapter 83 In order to prevent the client's death, I decided...



The car was driving in the suburbs, and Xu Yi sat in the passenger seat, feeling as if a fly was constantly buzzing by his ear.

He shouldn't have been in the passenger seat, no, he shouldn't have gotten in the car at all.

The driver was a priest, his hair white as snow, his face full of wrinkles, but he was still full of energy.

"Father Bonne, do you need to take a break?" Xu Yi "kindly" reminded him.

Ever since he got in the car, Father Bonne hadn't stopped talking. It was like a machine gun, rattling on without end.

One moment he was boasting about his old qualifications in the Holy Court, and how many famous people he knew; the next, he subtly inquired about Xu Yi's situation, just like the aunts who crowded around you during the New Year's homecoming.

Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of it, he began to complain, saying he couldn't understand what Ed was thinking, why he would send a young man over.

Between the lines, there was mistrust of Xu Yi.

"No need, I am not tired," Father Bonne casually replied, and then continued his "rap tour."

"Xu Yi, you are young and inexperienced, exorcism is not so simple. Back in the day, I..."

"If you were so formidable, why didn't you become an exorcist? Why did you still seek help from Mr. Warren?" Xu Yi finally couldn't take it anymore and retorted indifferently.

Father Bonne's pupils shook, his hands unconsciously gripped the steering wheel tighter, his mouth agape but no sound came out, like a soggy chicken being strangled by the neck.

The world suddenly became quiet, and Xu Yi took a deep breath, feeling indescribably relieved.

Not all priests are exorcists; in fact, most of the priests in the church are common people, used to support the operation of the vast church.

Father Bonne in front of him was just such a common man.

For the rest of the journey, Father Bonne completely quieted down, Xu Yi had hit a sore spot, and he shut himself off completely.

The car stopped in front of an apartment building adorned with many elements of the church, which Xu Yi had expected.

The church treats its devout believers differently from common people.

If not for a devout church follower, Ed wouldn't have specifically asked him to come over and help.

As soon as Xu Yi got out of the car, he smelled a foul odor, like burning sulfur mixed with the iron stench of blood.

He covered his nose and looked around; this was a luxury apartment with someone to clean regularly, the entrance was very clean, not looking like there was rotten garbage.

Xu Yi suddenly realized something and looked up sharply.

The smell was coming from above, and it wasn't a real smell, but his Psychic Perception at work, the scent belonging to an evil spirit.

Father Bonne's curiosity was piqued, he looked up along with Xu Yi's gaze, and then his pupils suddenly constricted.

A woman stood wavering at the window, her eyes lifeless, and most terrifyingly, she was trying to climb over the windowsill.

The window was four stories above the ground, and a direct fall could likely lead to immediate death.

"Mia! Mia!" Father Bonne shouted loudly, trying to wake her up,

Unfortunately, she turned a deaf ear, with one foot already over the sill.

Mia? Xu Yi paused for a moment. Wasn't this the client for this assignment?

If she fell to her death, wouldn't that mean the mission had failed? Was the situation going to end before it even started?

It was too late to rush up the stairs and pull her back; in the time it would take to reach the fourth floor, she could have jumped several times.

Even if he tried to run downstairs to catch her, it wouldn't be possible, as the iron gate was locked tight, and by the time he climbed over, her body would probably be cold.

Xu Yi took out the Alchemical Revolver Messiah, swiftly ejected the bullets inside, and then loaded new ones.

He aimed at Mia. With the enhancement of the Marksmanship entry, he already had pretty good shooting skills, especially with his preferred weapon, the revolver.

The trigger was pulled, and amidst the muffled gunshots, the bullet left the chamber—the first shot hit the window ledge, the second shot hit Mia squarely in the chest.

Mia screamed in pain, her body falling backward, tumbling back into the room.

Bonne was completely stunned, staring agape at Xu Yi.

What was this, to prevent the client from being killed by a demon, I killed the client first?

"Don't just stand there, quickly figure out how to open the door," Xu Yi urged.

He glanced at the priest, still standing there stupefied, and explained, "I was using rubber bullets just now. They can't kill anyone."

The so-called rubber bullets are essentially riot control rounds, designed to calm people down without killing them.

Two days ago, Xu Yi had a sudden idea, if "Messiah" could bless all bullets, why not rubber bullets?

Many times, the target of an exorcism isn't the entity itself, but a human possessed by an evil spirit or demon.

In such cases, you can't exactly solve everything in one fell swoop, right?

So, he thought of these rubber bullets, but ordinary rubber bullets are used in shotguns or riot guns, seldom in revolvers.

However, with enough "financial power," nothing is a problem.

Father Bonne's dead heart began to revive after hearing the explanation, and without hesitation, he opened the trunk of the car, rummaging for tools.

"You truly are an experienced old priest!" exclaimed Xu Yi, upon seeing what Father Bonne was holding in his hands.

The old priest was holding a huge pair of bolt cutters, capable of snipping through not only a mere iron lock but even steel bars.

"What are you doing?"

The apartment security guard came over upon hearing the noise, and Father Bonne handed him a bright red booklet – an Exorcist License.

The security guard immediately fell silent and was even kept by the old priest to act as forced labor.

Xu Yi looked at the red booklet with envy, the Exorcist License seemed even more useful than a police badge, and thankfully, he would soon have one too.

With the bolt cutters in hand, the security guard snipped the lock at the entrance, then fled like a scared rabbit.

Even if the people of this world haven't seen ghosts or evil spirits with their own eyes, through stories and observation, they know the terror of evil spirits.

The more they know, the more they revere.

Whenever there is an exorcism, people around instinctively keep their distance. Watching a scene might be satisfying, but life is more important.

Pushing open the gate, crossing the front garden, the entrance door on the first floor was unlocked, Xu Yi and his companion made their way straight to the fourth floor via the stairs.

The closer they got to their destination, the more intense the foul smell became.

As they stepped onto the fourth-floor corridor, the paintings on both sides of the hall began to shake violently, as if the figures within had come to life, glaring angrily at Xu Yi and his companion.

The sound of the paintings hitting the walls resembled the roars of wild beasts.

Xu Yi suddenly remembered a saying, "Such insignificant tricks, daring to show off in the craftsman's doorway!"

It seemed that all evil spirits, or demons, knew this trick, controlling the surrounding objects to create a great sense of oppression.

Pity, this trick only worked on ordinary people. Xu Yi strode confidently into the corridor.

"Wait for me!" Father Bonne took out a cross from his pocket, a cross clearly blessed by the church, possessing considerable exorcism power.

Following Xu Yi step by step, Father Bonne was no longer as arrogant as he had been on arrival.

Xu Yi almost forgot that the Father Bonne beside him was a mere mortal.

At the end of the hallway, a door was blown open by the wind, creating a slit through which they could see a small figure standing there, seemingly only three or four years old, dressed in a white princess dress.

"Does Mia have children?" Xu Yi suddenly asked.

"Yes, Mia has a daughter," Father Bonne replied promptly after a moment's hesitation.

Xu Yi's brow furrowed involuntarily.

The figure behind the door was clearly not a living person, lacking "human warmth," but oddly, there was no hint of an evil spirit either, more like an ordinary wandering soul.

Could it be that Mia's daughter had already been murdered?

The room from which Mia had jumped to her death was at the end of the hallway. They walked towards the corridor, and the white ghostly figure also moved towards them.

They came to a standstill in front of the corridor door as the ghostly figure suddenly accelerated, running faster and faster.

In the moment the door burst open, the three- or four-year-old girl transformed into an eighteen- or nineteen-year-old young woman, wielding a bloody dagger, her face twisted with rage as she lunged at the two men.

In that instant, Xu Yi's perception changed.

An icy chill surged towards him, the figure was no ordinary wandering soul but an evil spirit.

But how had it managed to elude his psychic perception?n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
