Chapter 224 223, assembly point, wheat field!
On the highway between Yard City and Esselgreen City.
A Cayenne sped past, with large raindrops hitting the windows, producing a dull sound.
Inside the car.
Du Wei had already connected with Bishop Slivka.
His tone was serious as he said, "The Evil Spirit incident in Yard City has spiraled out of control. The Church's investigation has barely scratched the surface. I am now heading to Esselgreen, and I need backup!"
On the other end of the phone, Slivka's tone was very complicated, "Mr. Du Wei, based on the situation you've described, there are at least a thousand people in Yard City who have been turned into puppets, and now the Evil Spirit is targeting you. If you get to Esselgreen, it could lead to complete chaos."

Du Wei said calmly, "I understand what you mean. If I lead the Evil Spirit to Esselgreen, it would cause the incident to spread, leading to more deaths."
His voice was cold, devoid of any trace of emotion, like a dagger cutting directly to the heart of the matter.
Slivka fell silent for a moment.
But Du Wei continued calmly, "You must be in a dilemma right now, not wanting me to go to Esselgreen, nor wanting to send support because that might lead to your own deaths. I can understand that and I won't blame you, as your thoughts are not wrong at all. However, there's one thing you haven't considered."
"The Evil Spirit incident won't resolve itself whether I'm alive or dead, or whether I go to Esselgreen. And because the Church hasn't uncovered the truth, the situation has now completely erupted and no one can escape it."
On the phone, Slivka said with deep apology and guilt, "Mr. Du Wei, I apologize for my thoughts."
Du Wei replied coldly, "I don't need an apology, what I need now is your support."
Slivka gritted his teeth, "Aside from Jon, I only have ten exorcists here. We can't handle so many puppets. Should we mobilize the police force?"
Du Wei rejected the idea, "The Evil Spirit will just turn them into puppets, it's completely pointless."
"Then what do you plan to do?"
"In the south of Yard City, close to the highway leading to Esselgreen, there's an abandoned farm. I've encountered some Evil Spirits there that resembled scarecrows.
Bring all the Bone Powder you have, and get some gasoline into the wheat fields of the farm. I'm going to lure all the puppets including the Evil Spirit Mary Shaw there, and then set them ablaze."
Upon hearing this.
Slivka exclaimed in shock over the phone, "That's too dangerous. Moreover, it's raining outside, you won't be able to start a fire!"
Du Wei's tone was chillingly cold, "I have a special lighter that will keep burning as long as there are Evil Spirits nearby."@@@@
Slivka, through gritted teeth, "But how will you get out of the wheat field? You'll die in there!"
Du Wei stated coldly, "I absolutely won't die, Bishop Slivka. Right now, you shouldn't be discussing life and death with me, but rather doing what you need to do!"
"I'm sorry... I'll set off with my people right now."
With an expressionless face, Du Wei turned his head and looked out the window.
He saw a face without features pressed against the car window, staring at him with a dead gaze.
In his mind, the perfect idea surfaced...
The perfect doll.
But under the Spirit Vision,
Du Wei saw the vague contour of a woman attached to the back of the doll, her skin ulcerated, her eyes filled with intense longing and greed...
The next second.
Du Wei picked up the gun and pulled the trigger directly.
Thump...
The bullet shattered the glass, breaking the entire car window and piercing the head of the perfect doll pressed against the glass.
Suddenly,
The perfect doll's face cracked, and the force of the bullet sent it flying.
With a bang,
The perfect doll fell heavily to the ground, its face cracking like the most delicate porcelain, turning dense and webbed like a spider web in the blink of an eye.
But then...
Hehehe...
The eerie, mournful laughter of a woman came in from outside the car window, sounding as if it was coming from within his own heart.
But Du Wei was not affected.
He was in the midst of an Evil Spirit Transformation, all emotions stripped away, retaining only calm and rationality.
"That's useless against me and, since I said I would give you a chance, I won't go back on my word!"
The words were intended for the Evil Spirit.
But strangely, as soon as he finished speaking, the mournful laughter outside stopped.
Seeing this, Du Wei took a deep breath, reached into the backpack on his lap, and pulled out a white mask without features.
As long as he wore this mask, he could don a layer of the Evil Spirit's skin, making all Evil Spirits lose him as a target until he took it off.
Only now was not the time to put on the mask.
