Reborn Exorcist

Louis knew what the opening of the gates of hell meant: a terrible number of dark creatures poured into the world, seven monarchs came with hatred, and the church would have to fight another tragic war.

The last war had severely damaged the vitality of the light side, and Louis could hardly imagine the ending this time.Of course he believes in the light, but he does not expect to use war to verify the belief that "the light must win".Returning to the bell tower with Roland, Louis said hello to Grant, who was recovering from his injuries, and then went to find Tom.He wanted to persuade the other party to be more careful, but the other party didn't appreciate it.

"If you have time to tell me to be careful, you might as well take care of yourself first! We live so far away, but you come here on purpose, what a waste of time!" Tom complained loudly.He put his legs on the table, and the hard soles of his riding boots kept knocking against the table as he spoke.

Louis really wanted to punch him, but he held back. "Don't get me wrong, I don't care about you at all. I want to tear your face apart. But now, I'm afraid we are in a trap, and we don't know who is going to plot against us in what way. In this critical We have to take care of each other during this time.”

Tom was a little more serious.He put his legs down. "Do you think the Holy See, this institution that has hardly been in contact with the American continent since the independence of the United States, is trying to count us? Why? We are just a group of ordinary exorcists."

"You are..." Louis stopped in the middle of his words.He wanted to tell the other party about the half-angel, but he guessed that in this way, Tom would either not believe it, or he would be complacent. "Forget it, let's not talk about this. In short, we are in a bad situation now. The Holy See's transmission is very fast. Think about it, why this letter just arrived at the time when we all arrived in Fenglin Town and were exhausted physically and mentally. To? I think there's definitely something wrong with that."

Tom shrugged. "Perhaps what you say may be true. But this way, it's a bad situation, no matter what we are going to face. First, we are all too tired to move, and the bullets are almost used up. And It's not easy to find a place in the ruins, so we live quite a distance from each other. Do you think it's necessary for us to jostle with the girls? Their house is still intact, and quite big."

Louis flashed a smile. "Hopefully they won't object."

"By the way, I want to ask about your partner." Tom leaned forward with a look of great interest: "I heard from Mr. Grant that he is a gentle and kind gentleman who gets along with you Pleasant. I am amazed that he can bear your temper! How did you find such a man?"

How could that guy Roland be a nice man!Louis screamed in his heart. "So how did you find her? Your current partner and wife. Not only can she tolerate your bad temper, she is even willing to spend her life with you like this."

Tom's face darkened.He jumped up, trying to punch Louis.However, at this moment, the floor under their feet suddenly shook violently.The wooden boards that built the house rubbed against each other, making a creaking sound.The overhead lights were also faltering. "What happened?" he called.

"Probably an earthquake," Louis replied calmly.He was used to windstorms and earthquakes while living in Missouri.But then, the feet began to shake again, again and again.At this moment, the wooden house could no longer withstand such a violent tremor, and the planks on the wall were lifted up, making a fragile whine.The light bulb fell and shattered into pieces, and the room went dark for an instant.

"We have to get out, this place may be collapsing! By the way, go and see what happened!" Tom shouted urgently.

"Bring your luggage, you can't throw away your weapons." Louis picked up Tom's luggage.Tom nodded and ran out with Louis, onto the street.What they saw was an unimaginable scene: a huge monster stood in the middle of the road, and it walked all the way into Fenglin Town from the outside.It turned out to be a three-meter-high statue of a soldier, who looked like a cowboy wielding a long knife, with purple light shining in the empty eye sockets!

"I seem to have seen this thing when I came here." Louis frowned, searching for similar images in his memory. "This thing seems to commemorate an officer who died in the Revolutionary War?"

"True, but that's only one thing. As far as I know, a black exorcist passed by before the Civil War and he spent his life imprisoning a powerful evil spirit inside that statue. Well, I know What do you want to ask. He could have killed it, but at the time... you know, he resented the white man, so he made the evil spirit merge with the white cowboy."

"So, who—or what—brought it back to life?" Louis asked.

Tom's handsome face was full of worry: "I don't know. I only know that this is not good, our house will be trampled to the ground by it. I want to tell others not to waste weapons. To deal with this thing, we must directly destroy it Evil spirits; otherwise, smashing the statue into pieces won't work. Time is running out, and the luggage will trouble you!" After saying this, Tom rushed out, running fast.

Louis looked at the guy who didn't forget to put on his felt hat even when he was in a hurry, and even didn't even change his scarf.He came out unarmed, and at this moment took the exorcism cross from Tom's knapsack unceremoniously.

Already several edgy exorcists shot at the statue.The bullet hit the stone and bounced off with a loud snap.But one girl found the "trick". She climbed the windows, the eaves, and finally jumped to the top of the roof.Aiming at the statue's purple eyes, she fired.

Tom wanted to shout "Don't waste bullets", but when he opened his mouth, Louis strangled his neck from behind, and the words were blocked in his throat.

I heard the sound; something like glass was broken.Louis played the voice over and over in his head until he knew what it was.He let go, and jumped aside, lest Tom should sneak up in anger.But the other party didn't.Quite abnormally, this young man who was always full of energy just stood there in a daze, more like a stone than the tall statue in front who was visibly angry but whirled around.

Louis was a little worried.In his heart, he still regarded Tom as a companion—although they always had conflicts.Moreover, the other party is a half-angel like him, so that is his kind.Louis pushed the other party and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay! I'm fine." Tom forced a smile, then rushed to the front. "Everyone, don't waste bullets! Just do what you usually do to expel the possessing evil spirit!"

Others put away their guns and mechanical crossbows one after another, and took out the holy water and the cross.They believed in Tom, and when Grant was resting, he seemed to regard him as the new commander.

Louis also took out his own tools.At an angle that no one else could see, he pricked his finger and mixed the blood with the holy water.He knew this would make his exorcisms effective, and when the evil spirit was forced out, he was even able to kill it with a mixture of blood and holy water.

The exorcists displayed a sense of togetherness that can only be found at work.They stood together and chanted an exorcism in unison before leaping upwards, smearing holy water on the statue and holding the cross close to it.

Louis poured holy water mixed with his own blood over the statue's hollow eyes.Inside this hides an old and evil soul.As he did this, he noticed something special in the statue's eyes.It was a dark purple crystal, and when the demon's soul met it, it would emit a purple light.

There is only one kind of stone that can break God's spell and fight the demon for life.

Louis suddenly felt shuddering.He understood why Tom was nervous.Holding the stone in the palm of his hand, Louis jumped off the shoulder of the statue.

The young exorcists had done their job.But unfortunately, the statue lost the control of the evil spirit and fell heavily on the ground, crushing the only two remaining houses on the left side of the road into pieces of wood.This time, everyone had to get together first.

"Let's get out of here!" said a young woman excitedly. "We're serving God! Even if we're serving the church, it must be the church in America! Why care what people across the ocean think!"

"That's right!" The man beside her agreed: "We don't need to listen to their orders. After the teacher recovers from his injury, let's go back to the areas we guard respectively!"

Louis leaned on his chin and listened, a little worried.He has a hunch that a bigger crisis has not yet come, and whether they are scattered or concentrated, there are serious hidden dangers.

In addition, Tom's abnormality also worried Louis.Although he doesn't like the other party, he has to admit that this experienced and energetic senior can always become an "invisible leader", and everyone takes his words seriously.But now, this guy was as quiet as if his tongue had been cut, and his brows were tightly knit, restless.He asked Tom after everyone discussed the results, but he didn't get an answer from the other party.

"I just don't know what to do!" Louis returned to the clock tower a little annoyed.He lowered his voice when he realized that Grant was sleeping. "Roland, how is he?"

"I just changed his medicine. He's not recovering as quickly as you, but he'll be able to move around tomorrow morning."

Louis nodded and whispered guiltily, "Thank you. I'm so sorry that I asked you to help take care of the teacher."

Roland smiled and kissed Louis lightly on the lips. "Don't thank me, and don't apologize. But if you're really upset, then Louis, you can repay me in a way I prefer."

Louis rolled his eyes.He sent the stone in his hand to Roland. "You recognize this, right?"

"Of course. It's the Philosopher's Stone. I used to have a few friends who were alchemists in Europe, and they locked themselves in the house every day to refine this. What's the matter?"

"I have a conjecture. Suppose Edmund put the Philosopher's Stone in the eye socket of a statue without any injuries. A powerful evil spirit sleeps in the statue... It can release the evil spirit through certain rituals. Imprisonment, to 'resurrect' that evil spirit, right?"

"Yes, he's good at this," Roland said before he heard Louis curse. "Did I say something wrong?"

"No, I just learned a terrible truth." Louis took a few deep breaths. "Tom's partner and wife, a soon-to-be-successful alchemist, is probably in Edmund's hands now."
