Exorcist's Self-Cultivation

Chapter 225 224, can't run away any longer

2:30 in the morning.

The downpour continued.

Bishop Slivka and Bishop Jon, accompanied by ten Exorcists, drove to the farm located near the Southern highway of Yard City.

Gazing into the darkness, a vast wheat field lay before them.

At this time of the year, the wheat should have been harvested long ago. However, it remained untouched, subjected to the relentless rain that washed the grains into the soil, rendering the field utterly desolate.

"Be extremely careful, there's an Evil Spirit in this wheat field that resembles a Scarecrow."

Bishop Slivka rolled down the window, instructing everyone with a sharp and resolute gaze.

Bishop Jon nodded silently in agreement.

The rest of the Exorcists, each carrying Bone Powder and gasoline, dispersed and proceeded into the wheat field.

Their task was straightforward.

They were to spread gasoline around the perimeter of the wheat field and mix in the Bone Powder.

Each person drove a car loaded with a considerable amount of gasoline.

They knew what Du Wei intended to do and were willing to risk cooperating.

Bishop Slivka was the first to act, getting out of the car with a canister of gasoline mixed with Bone Powder and rushing into the wheat field.

Gasoline is highly flammable and often cannot be extinguished even with water.

Of course, with the torrential rain pouring down, even if it were to ignite, the fire would gradually be suppressed by the rainwater and a large blaze wouldn't be possible.

Bone Powder, however, is designed specifically to counter Evil Spirits and would not be extinguished unless it burned completely.

Coupled with Du Wei's special lighter, Bishop Slivka felt there was a high chance of success.

But one problem loomed as a shadow in his heart.

He couldn't understand why Du Wei, acting as bait to lure the Evil Spirit into the wheat field, would have to wait until the fire ignited, because if he left halfway, the Evil Spirit would also flee.

In other words,

this was tantamount to suicide.

"I hope you really have a way to come out alive and won't die here; otherwise, this will be the church's greatest loss in recent times."

Bishop Slivka prayed silently.

But suddenly, a piercing buzzing sound rang in his ears.

Ordinary Exorcists all operate at the first stage of Spirit Vision.

At the level of a bishop, most have reached the second stage.

At this stage, the Evil Spirits they see are more palpable, and it's easier to enter Spirit Vision.

Under the state of Spirit Vision,

Bishop Slivka saw a humanoid shadow silhouette appearing in the wheat field, approximately ten meters away from himself, seemingly out of nowhere.

Moreover, an extremely strong malicious intent surrounded him.

"Damn, it's the Scarecrow-like Evil Spirit Du Wei mentioned..."

Bishop Slivka's expression turned very ugly.

Du Wei even had the eerie feeling that it could see through his body and gaze upon his consciousness or soul.

This was very important.

It reinforced Du Wei's thought all the more.

That was, Evil Spirit Mary Shaw did not want him to die for any other reason; it wanted him to get out of the car safely and be indirectly killed by the dolls.

On this,

Du Wei was very calm. He didn't confront the spooky evil spirit in the car because his intuition told him that if he couldn't kill the evil spirit and all the dolls in one fell swoop...

Evil Spirit Mary Shaw would still reappear.

Because it now possessed some of the characteristics of that terrifying road within Massas City.

To put it simply, it was no longer just an evil spirit but had become a conceptual entity.

At that moment,

Du Wei noticed the silhouette of a wheat field up ahead, and around it, there were many vehicles with their headlights on.

"Time to get out!"

As the words fell,

Du Wei immediately began to slow down, while the dolls that kept appearing on both sides of the road crowded towards the car.

Behind him, that greedy and vicious gaze intensified suddenly.

Even with a Black Umbrella, Du Wei's back could not escape a sharp stinging pain.

He took a deep breath and looked at himself. Read latest stories on My Virtual Library Empire

The backpack was on his thighs, the Black Umbrella propped behind him, Pennywise tied to his Right Hand, and the mask that could be worn was held in his left hand.

Hiss...

Du Wei pumped the brakes, and the car jerked violently as he slowed down rapidly, which was extremely dangerous. Those dolls also scattered quickly, not daring to get too close.

With a bang,

the car door flew open, thrown by Du Wei, who then jumped out, clutching his backpack.

Upon landing,

the Cayenne plunged into the wheat field, tipped to one side, and flipped over.

Looking around, a dense crowd of dolls had surrounded him.

They bore the shapes of normal people, of every age group, each with black threads on their bodies, converging together.

But by that time, Du Wei could no longer determine where exactly Evil Spirit Mary Shaw was.

Because it was hiding among the dolls, waiting for his death.

Du Wei took a deep breath, slung the backpack over his shoulder, and looked coldly at the surrounding dolls closing in on him.

Underneath his feet was the wheat field, and a faint smell of gasoline tickled his nose.

But now was not the time to set the fire, and he had to make sure all of the dolls entered the wheat field with him.

With that thought, Du Wei immediately put on the featureless white mask and drew the wish-granting Joker Card with his Right Hand.

He said coldly, "You can't run away..."
