"No!!!"

The voice roared, but the body couldn't move. Watching Jiali's black hair danced wildly, and the blue veins around her eyes bulged, extremely terrifying.

Even if Abam tried its best, it couldn't break free from the powerful invisible telekinesis, and could only use magic power to launch an attack on Cotton.

But at this moment.

Louis, who had already noticed Cotton's movements, had runes flashing in his eyes, and he had clearly seen Abam's invisible attack.

The huge Blood River Bead was like a giant dam spanning a great river, blocking all power and intercepting Abam's last hope.

All of this looked like a lot of action, but in reality, it only happened in an instant.

Puchi!

The dagger stabbed into Nuel's heart just like that.

Bright red blood flooded out from the wound, and Nuel's eyes stared fixedly at Cotton.

Cotton also looked at this girl, his eyes full of sorrow and pain, but he still stirred the dagger fiercely to ensure the death of the offering.

At the moment Nuel died.

The channel achieved through the sacrificial ritual was closed.

Abam could no longer feel its remaining power, and even, it couldn't go back along the channel.

You have to know, it was a true body now!

If it died, it was really dead.

Anger swept through its heart. Looking at Cotton, its eyes wished they could spit fire. In fact, it could indeed spit fire, but it couldn't move now.

It could only endure this scorching that reached its soul.

"Ah ah ah ah! Priest! Witch! You have no idea who you have provoked!"

What a third-rate villain speech~

Louis, who had always kept his distance from it, sighed in his heart. He didn't pick up the conversation, but took out a willow leaf. Under the infusion of half his magic power, he swung out four willow-leaf golden knives, shining with brilliant golden light.

All four knives stabbed into Abam, who was in the flame spiritual body state, forcibly cutting off its arms and thighs.

Louis's eyes suddenly brightened at this moment, and he opened his mouth wide.

A terrifying suction force was generated, and the still-burning arms and thighs were sucked into that abyss-like mouth just like that.

And Abam could only watch helplessly as Louis cut its body, slaughtering it just like slaughtering a pig, and even eating it raw on the spot!

Who the hell is the demon!

"Priest! What is your name?!"

Louis still didn't speak, just closed his eyes slightly, feeling the massive soul falling into his belly. I have to say, evil spiritual bodies like demons are truly wonderful. Besides being very difficult to digest, the quality and quantity they can provide are far beyond evil spirits!

One is a small bun, the other is a big cake.

It's just... tsk, the taste is weird, spicy, feels like eating Sichuan food.

First suppressing and grinding it in his belly with the Five Elements Qi, Louis focused his attention on Abam.

Accompanied by the burning of the poisonous fire, Abam's huge flame spiritual body became illusory. But even so, Abam was still extremely tough, not softening at all, just looking at Louis gloomily.

After Louis shattered twenty more dark green soul stones.

Finally, two minutes later, he burned Abam completely. The massive body eventually turned into a wisp of gray-white smoke and dissipated in the blink of an eye.

Louis still had his Spiritual Eye open. After looking left and right.

He made a gesture to Watching Jiali. Watching Jiali, who had been outputting continuously and could be called the best controller, stopped her movements and flew over. At this time, Watching Jiali's face was a bit pale, and sweat beads were flowing on her delicate skin.

Obviously, the all-out attack just now was also quite a consumption for her.

"Are you okay?"

Watching Jiali shook her head, "I'm fine, just a bit of a headache. A sleep should be enough."

"You go back to the car first and get some rest."

Watching Jiali shook her head and didn't speak.

Louis didn't persuade her further and turned to look at the stone platform. Father Cotton was sitting paralyzed on the ground, holding the cross tightly in his hand, as if drawing the strength from it that allowed him to persist.

And on the stone platform, Nuel's corpse was warm, the bright red blood had stained the platform, and her eyes were wide open. This was death in extreme pain and unwillingness, commonly known as—dying with eyes wide open.

"Hello?"

Father Cotton raised his head, looked at Louis, and hurriedly stood up, "Hello, I am Cotton. Thank you very much for eliminating the demon just now and saving me from my mistake."

Although the two had just met once, and Louis had used an illusion to get all the words out of the other party, Cotton himself didn't know. After introducing each other, Cotton honestly told the whole story from beginning to end.

When he reached the end, he was tearful.

"It would have been one thing if I didn't believe it, but I also rashly reached a contract with that demon and made that bet, without realizing it was the demon's trick."

"Letting it control this girl to escape, causing such heavy casualties."

When Cotton spoke, he looked around in a daze.

After the battle between Louis and Abam, this forest and open space had been completely destroyed. Everywhere were collapses and earth cracks, and there were towering flames burning wantonly.

Everywhere on the ground were corpses lying horizontally and vertically, black as charcoal—women, old people, teenagers, girls...

In that originally lush forest, all the animals were fleeing in terror, and the birds in the sky were struggling for survival.

This was the result of the battle between Louis and Abam.

It could already be called a micro-war.

Moreover, Louis only spent a few minutes solving Abam and didn't drag it out too long. If the time had dragged on, the damage caused would probably have been even greater.

"Fortunately, this is not the center of the town," Cotton sighed, looking at the devastation.

"Thank you for your contribution."

"Alright, you sit down first and drink this." Louis took the water bottle from his waist, burned a talisman paper, and handed the water over.

Cotton was a bit puzzled, but out of trust in this strange person, he drank the paper-ash water.

Not long after drinking it, he magically felt that the blood in his abdomen had stopped flowing. Although he could still feel the pain, it was obviously no longer fatal.

"This is only temporary. You'd better go to the hospital to treat the wound now."

"As for this place, I've already notified people to come and deal with it," Louis said.

Louis still felt quite good about this Father Cotton in front of him. Just by the courage he showed in rushing into the battlefield holding the cross, he was a warrior.

And he also possessed both mercy and decisiveness; he was a character.

Plus the fact that the other party cut off the channel at the end, which indeed helped Louis, so Louis returned the favor like this.

But Cotton shook his head, "I, I need to send Nuel's body back, and then confess to Switz. I killed his daughter."

"Stupid, do you really think Nuel, who was impregnated by a demon, is still Nuel?"

"What's more, isn't Switz himself hunting her down? What do you want to confess?"

"Instead of confessing here, you'd better think about what to do in the future."

Cotton was speechless.

Louis didn't bother with him anymore and started checking the sacrificial platform to ensure nothing was missed.

However, while checking, Louis gave Watching Jiali a look. Although Watching Jiali didn't understand why, she still paused and didn't use telekinesis to search on a large scale, assuming a posture of closing her eyes and resting.

After Louis finished searching, Cotton seemed to have made a choice.

He walked over and bowed deeply to Louis, "Thank you for your guidance. I have realized my mistake. Next, I will go to atone for my sins."

"I'll leave this book to you. I failed the expectations of my father and grandfather. This book will be more useful if left to someone capable like you."

Cotton handed a book with a dark red cover, three fingers thick, to Louis.

"This was passed down by our family. It records hundreds of demons and monsters that my grandfather and father experienced or heard about when they were priests. I hope it's useful to you."

Louis didn't stand on ceremony, took the book, and flipped through it roughly. He found that there was quite a lot recorded in it. Besides origins, characteristics, and abilities, it also wrote some handling methods, all of which were empirical talk.

It could be considered a treasure book.

After thinking about it, Louis asked Watching Jiali for a peach wood cross and threw it to Cotton.

There was no other way; his peach wood protective talismans had all been burned just now.

After Cotton took it, he walked toward the town.

He prepared to go to the town hospital first, and then go to the Vatican Exorcism Academy to sign up.

Since he knew the truth of this world, for the sins he had committed in the past, he must do his best on this path and move forward without hesitation!

Louis had already called the Bureau earlier.

After a rough check now, Louis stretched out his palm, mobilized the remaining small half of his magic power, and performed the Fire-Manipulation Art.

Whoosh!!

The overwhelming flames from all directions surged toward Louis like swallows returning to their nests, and even formed a strange sight in the sky. The patches of fire clouds looked beautiful.

A moment later, seeing that the fire was under control.

Louis looked at Watching Jiali, "Alright, let's go, it's time to go back. The harvest this time is not bad."

"This Abam was actually unlucky this time, encountering... but who told it to... be so meddlesome..."

The voice became fainter and fainter with distance, until it went far away.

Ten-plus minutes later.

From a path where the trees were burned black, a young white man rushed out. His eyes were fanatical, his face wrapped in gauze. It was Switz's eldest son, Nuel's brother—Caleb!

At this time, he seemed to be able to hear some sound, quickly ran to the vicinity of the stone platform, ignored the scorching pain of the flames, overturned the bonfire, and frantically searched for something in it.

He didn't stop even when his hands were burned with one blister after another.

Finally, he stopped and saw a mass of flesh and blood inside that was unscathed.

He respectfully held it up with both hands, then came to the place where Louis and Abam had fought earlier, looked at the wide crack, and jumped down without the slightest hesitation.

In the corner of the crack, there was actually a broken claw, dripping with magma-like blood.

He placed the two together.

The next instant, as if a chemical reaction had occurred.

That fetus-like mass of flesh and blood began to liquefy and flow toward the claw, and the claw also turned into a flame spiritual body in an instant. The two began to combine with each other.
