Exorcist's Self-Cultivation

Chapter 223 222, City of the Dead...(Owed updates)

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.

Thump...

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.

"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.
