Chapter 216: Angels and Demons

Father Wei Ke Tu pretended to be calm as he put away the pendant.

And in his heart, he praised the Holy Lord as well as Saintess Teresa.

He knew very well that he was actually no different from the charlatans around him, and he was by no means a transcendent.

That he could now display miracle-like abilities to those before him who had been invaded by Evil.

Was merely because he had received a call in advance and knew how to borrow the power of Saintess Teresa to restrain the Evil.

Of course, Father Wei Ke Tu could probably rack his brains and never imagine that his borrowing of Divine Power was merely a setup by the mastermind behind the scenes.

"The Holy Lord is above!"

"Which church is this priest from? He actually has a way to deal with these patients!"

"It seems to be from the Huanxing Qu... it's a church certified by the Holy City!"

"The Holy City?"

In the monitoring room, the experts soon realized why this Father Wei Ke Tu was so special.

And from this, they deduced why the other priests could not do it.

In the lobby, the agents, the priests, and the psychics all stood behind Father Wei Ke Tu.

Regarding him as their backbone and leader for what was to come.

Father Wei Ke Tu had originally received the mission to control the Evil invasion, and regarding the fact that his teammates were all a burden, he just shook his head in feigned disappointment.

As for his heart, he was actually secretly delighted.

This feeling of manifesting holiness in front of others, making his peers stare in dumbstruck envy, jealousy, and hatred.

He had only ever felt it in his dreams before.

"Help them up and send them to the ward."

Father Wei Ke Tu looked at the psychics who had fainted and said calmly, keeping his tone as steady as possible.

Afterwards, he walked quickly along the corridor signs and entered the emergency observation room.

Here in the observation room, the howling was the loudest and most chaotic.

Patient after patient was tied to hospital beds, mouths wide and screaming.

The light emitted by the fluorescent lamps on the ceiling allowed one to vaguely see twisted black shadows.

Doctors and nurses were struggling to maintain Order, attempting to use various agents to subdue these patients.

It was just that, without harming the patients, those drugs had very little effect.

And in drug trials conducted on certain felons, special drugs did indeed make them quiet down.

But at the same time, examinations revealed that their bodies had been damaged by the drugs, and even if they eventually recovered, they would be left with severe sequelae.

Furthermore, as the degree of bodily damage worsened, the black Qi within these felons would often leave in large part, invading others and creating new patients.

This plan ultimately had to be regretfully halted.

"Doctor! The sedative has reached the maximum tolerable dose!"

"Doctor! The patient's heartbeat has suddenly accelerated, and the blood oxygen level is dropping rapidly; it's only at 60 now!"

In the chaotic emergency room, Father Wei Ke Tu appeared at the door with a group of followers, like a big shot inspecting operations.

After scanning the chaos in the emergency room, Father Wei Ke Tu took a deep breath, knocked hard on the door to make a loud sound, and after attracting the attention of the people in the emergency room:

Father Wei Ke Tu kissed the pendant on his chest and shouted:

"Hallelujah!"

"In the name of the angels and Saintess Teresa! Evil, begone!"

Father Wei Ke Tu shouted out loud.

The voice was loud and powerful, resounding throughout the entire emergency room.

Immediately, the doctors and patients discovered that those wailing patients had suddenly quieted down.

They could not help but turn their heads to look at the people at the door, and felt that Father Wei Ke Tu seemed to be wrapped in a touch of holy light from head to toe.

Appearing incomparably holy and mysterious.

Some doctors and nurses who believed in the Holy Lord could not help but kneel on the ground, praising the Holy Lord and the Shepherd before them with awe, like lambs.

After Father Wei Ke Tu saw that it was indeed effective against so many people, his heart was completely at ease.

He looked at the doctor who appeared to be the highest-ranking and said:

"I am Father Wei Ke Tu, sent by the Holy City to temporarily control the situation."

"Before Her Highness Saintess Teresa arrives, please gather all patients in one environmental space so that they may listen to my prayers."

"Ah? Okay, no problem!"

The doctor who was asked was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he nodded quickly.

As Father Wei Ke Tu continued to display miracles, the hospital's crisis was temporarily calmed.

While the doctors and nurses breathed a sigh of relief.

The agents who had brought Father Wei Ke Tu received new orders, telling them to head to the suburbs to help escort patients.

This order made the two agents worried.

They discovered that this strange illness, suspected to be demonic possession, seemed to be appearing in places further and further away.

And, from the complaints quietly revealed by their peers.

These agents suspected it was not just Xin Yue Ke Shi...

It was very likely that similar cases had appeared in other cities in other regions as well.

"Holy Lord, please do not let this become a nightmare for the entire Water Blue Star!"

The agent driving the car exclaimed.

Making the one in the passenger seat have to quickly offer comfort and remind them to pay attention to their own mental state.

According to current research.

Mental state is closely related to whether or not one will be contaminated.

It is heard that the expert group has already begun referring to various mysterious knowledge and scientific theories, preparing to compile a set of methods for rapidly restoring mental state to popularize.

Arriving at a high-rise building in the suburbs that had long been abandoned and then occupied by homeless people and immigrants.

As soon as the agents entered, they felt as if they had mistakenly walked onto a Resident Evil film set.

In the hallways and the garden inside the building, there were patients lying everywhere, dressed in rags, their black eyes wide open and trembling slightly.

On the other side, many people were clutching wounds on their arms and shoulders, nervously shouting about whether they would be infected.

"This is not a zombie virus, it will not spread through blood!"

The agent sighed, took out a special communication device and attached it to their shoulder, then turned on the loudspeaker function to start broadcasting to reduce panic.

Afterwards, they met with the spokesperson for the gang forces of this building complex to understand the situation and notify relevant units to prepare vehicles to transfer the injured personnel.

"Hey, our boss hopes you can come over and take a look at this."

While handling matters, a curly-haired boy trotted over.

"I'll go take a look."

The agent who had been driving said, then followed the curly-haired boy into the first-floor hallway and saw a broken-open room door.

"This is the room where those lunatics first appeared; you don't know, the scene before was truly crazy!"

"It's a good thing we had enough people, otherwise it would have been miserable."

The curly-haired boy said quickly, then pointed to a spot on the wall inside the room.

The agent looked over, and their pupils immediately constricted.

That was a warning written in ancient Hebrew.

The agent had studied it before, later as extraordinary events occurred frequently, especially after the Holy City exposed divine miracles.

These agents had all crammed this ancient Hebrew.

After whispering it a few times, they discovered that the warning written on the wall in blood was related to Saintess Teresa.

Coupled with the fact that Father Wei Ke Tu had repeatedly emphasized the importance of Saintess Teresa earlier.

After this agent cursed, they hurriedly dialed an emergency call:

"Chief! I have seen the warning left by the possessed!"

"They are very likely going to attack Saintess Teresa!"

While the agent was reporting in a rush.

The private plane carrying Teresa had also already entered the territory of Flower Flag Country.

A somewhat nervous Teresa, accompanied by two nuns and more than a dozen bishops and priests, looked at the white clouds below from time to time.

She was actually also a bit bewildered.

In the Secret Realm, she spent most of her time farming and growing flowers with cats and dogs.

Then it was meditation and cultivation, with occasional play in between.

Unexpectedly, two days ago, an angel suddenly appeared before her.

Yet it did not arrange a new task, but instead told her.

The human world had signs of a large-scale invasion by Evil forces.

It required her, this Shitai chosen by the Holy Lord, to go and resolve this dangerous event.

And it told her that the journey might have dangers, but with the help of the angel, she would always be able to turn danger into safety.

"Get off the plane, then go to the city cathedral, dispel the Evil as you usually do, and finally hold a Pixie Yishi for everyone."

Thinking of the ceremony, Teresa gripped her Storage Bag tightly.

Inside the bag were the Array Tool and related Dharma Artifacts given by the angel.

They could allow her to possess the ability to protect herself while completing the important ceremony.

Buzz buzz!

Suddenly, the private plane began to bump.

The captain had just spoken to comfort them that it was only strong turbulence and there was no big problem.

Bang bang bang!

The plane encountered a bird strike, and a series of bang-bang-bang sounds rang out.

"How is this possible!"

The experienced captain saw the crow that had died from the impact on the cockpit glass, full of disbelief.

"Holy Lord, am I having a hallucination?"

"How could one encounter crows at this flight altitude!"

"Where on earth did they come from?"

"Not good, they're coming again!"

Just after finishing the exclamation, the captain finally discovered this time that some black dots had suddenly appeared out of thin air in the sky not far away.

And then, after these black dots rapidly enlarged, they finally saw clearly that it was a flock of crows with blood-red eyes.

"Watch out!"

In the communication channel, the pilot of the escorting Flower Flag Country fighter jet exclaimed, and without caring about much else, used the machine cannon in an attempt to stop the crows from colliding.

It was just that everything developed too quickly.

Soon the flock of crows made intimate contact with the private plane again.

This time, one of the private plane's engines emitted fire, and soon an explosion and thick smoke appeared.

Then following that, the engine on the other side also similarly caught fire and exploded.

This forced the plane's speed to slow down, while its altitude also began to drop rapidly.

"What do we do!"

The investigators and experts in Xin Yue Ke Shi learned of this immediately, and were all at a loss, their faces pale.

Especially that investigator, who knew very well that if Saintess Teresa of the Holy City met with an accident because the plane crashed.

He would have to pack his bags and leave immediately.

And it was highly likely that after losing his protection, he would be torn apart by angry believers, and then appear in some tabloid as a suicide case after being stabbed dozens of times in the back...

"The plane is stalling, damn it... its landing zone is all urban area!"

"Quickly contact the flight crew, prioritize letting the clergy parachute no matter what!"

"Don't worry about how dangerous it is without training! Notify all flight team members to stand by, and head to the relevant airspace to prepare for an aerial rescue as much as possible!"

Although they knew the success rate was pitifully low, the experts immediately thought of some potentially useful methods.

Just when they were as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

The investigator received a communication from inside the plane.

Then, the office heard the gentle voice of that Saintess Teresa.

She told them not to worry, that nothing would go wrong.

They only needed to reassure the citizens not to panic too much.

"Huh?"

The investigator was slightly stunned, looking at the plane on the surveillance screen that had already fallen from the thick clouds.

He gritted his teeth and began to have people issue a broadcast.

The city center of Xin Yue Ke Shi.

The most prosperous section of this city.

It was still flourishing today, as if no one cared that an abnormal event was occurring.

The large screen on the plaza was constantly playing annoying advertisements from all over Water Blue Star.

Many video creators were also filming material here, or performing street shows.

A young man from the East was performing magic, and just after making a paper airplane disappear.

He discovered that the audience, including the shills he had arranged, were all looking up and shouting "airplane."

Just as he was thinking about changing his shill next time, he quickly heard a roar from the sky.

He hurriedly turned around and looked up.

Then he opened his mouth wide and uttered the same word as the crowd behind him.

Airplane... such a huge airplane, engulfed in flames, was about to fall!

"Mom!"

Someone had tears in their eyes and let out an instinctive cry.

More people began to run.

The chain collisions appearing on the street also soared to an all-time high at this moment.

However, just as this plane carrying the Saintess began to dive, almost reaching within a hundred meters of the tall buildings.

Scaring the white-collar workers in the office buildings so much that they could clearly see the pilot's twisted and exaggerated face through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and thus also began to pee their pants in fear.

A light suddenly enveloped the entire plane.

The diving plane paused miraculously, and then adjusted its posture.

It began to slowly pass over office building after office building, and the roofs of vehicle after vehicle.

After inadvertently tearing through a bit of an office building's curtain wall.

With a *puff*, it stopped in the large plaza that had been cleared due to the evacuation.

Boom, boom, boom!

The inertia after the plane landed caused it to move forward continuously, hitting many sundries in the plaza.

Even the wings on both sides were broken off to the side as a result.

The fuselage... however, finally came to a steady stop at the main entrance of a Shopping Mall.

Woo, woo, woo!

Rescue vehicles rushed over urgently.

A large number of agents rushed over fully armed to clear the scene.

As the plane door opened, Saintess Teresa walked off the plane from the ramp.

Seeing that the target was truly unharmed.

The investigator and the others finally breathed a real sigh of relief, and secretly marveled that the Saintess protected by angels was indeed worthy of her reputation.

However, according to the warning, this Saintess had been targeted by the Evil side.

Those crows at ten thousand meters in the sky were proof of that.

Now, they probably couldn't be careless!

Just as he was thinking this.

The investigator learned that a riot had broken out in the city's Sewer.

Countless large rats ran out from the Sewer and rushed toward the direction where Saintess Teresa was.

At the same time, from all directions, many crows that appeared out of thin air also attacked.

Clearly, the Evil forces would not give up until they achieved their goal!

"Oh, maiden chosen by the angels!"

"Get out of this city chosen by His Highness!"

"This is a land of Chaos and sin; it does not need the salvation of the hypocritical angels behind you!"

From within the swarming flock of crows, a sharp male voice let out a roar.

Above the city skyline, a phantom image emerged from the black Qi.

It was a phantom in the likeness of the Evil God Neil, showing only the upper body.

Naturally, this Evil God Neil was merely a fake whose likeness Su Ping had borrowed.

Under the projection's magnification, it possessed not a shred of Evil Qi or oppressive aura.

However, the visual impact brought by the appearance itself was enough to leave a deep impression on countless people, making it difficult for them to doubt its authenticity.

At the same time, swarms of rats also appeared all around the plaza.

This triggered waves of startled cries.

"Teresa, do not be afraid. You are a person blessed by angels; you have angelic protection, and everything will turn from danger to safety!"

Teresa naturally saw the phantom in the sky, and her heart jumped violently in fright.

Fortunately, the Storage Bag bestowed by the angels gave this young Saintess confidence.

With a flash of inspiration, she pressed her palms together, and with a flash of Golden Light—

A pure white robe appeared on her body.

At the same time, she wore a wreath that was primarily pure white on her head.

The moment these two holy artifacts appeared.

A light, drizzling rain began to fall from the sky.

Holy, sacred music began to play.

Under the sacred music.

A hole suddenly opened in the clouds, and sunlight pierced through the sky, shining upon the phantom of the Evil God Neil.

In an instant, it caused that terrifying phantom to dissipate into the sky.

"No!"

Within the flock of crows, the sharp male voice continued to scream:

"Damnable angels, damnable chosen one!"

"You..."

Before the voice could finish, the flock of crows burst into flames as the sunlight shone upon them, and they were quickly burned to nothing.

The swarms of rats on the ground, meanwhile, seemed to suddenly wake up.

They scattered in all directions like birds and beasts.

This left the city administrators lingering in fear, determined to put pest control on the agenda for tomorrow!

Hallelujah!

Praise the Holy Lord!

Saintess Teresa summoned sunlight to dispel the Evil, a scene that was like a miracle reappearing.

It was deeply imprinted in the eyes of those at the scene.

Many people bowed and saluted this Saintess sincerely.

At the same time, there were plenty of people hiding in shopping malls and office buildings who still did not forget to livestream and record videos.

They also allowed this scene to spread across the internet worldwide.

For a time, Teresa's reputation began to soar rapidly.

Soon, someone investigated the cause and effect, shouting that this world was truly too dangerous.

Because he discovered that it was not just in Flower Flag Country; similar cases had actually appeared in cities over in Ouluoba as well.

Fortunately, the Holy City had dispatched bishops there immediately.

Furthermore, they were also preparing some ceremonies, said to be conducting a Pixie Yishi for everyone in the affected areas!

According to his account, many wealthy people, even if they did not live in the affected areas, intended to take their families and run over to participate.

Just to have a little more peace of mind.

Then someone posted the news that had just been updated on the Holy City's official website.

It was strikingly a bishop popularizing the principles of the exorcism ceremony for everyone.

It was just like getting a vaccine; as long as one completed this ceremony, the probability of being invaded by Evil could be significantly reduced.

However, because they lacked sufficient manpower and resources, and only affected areas were likely to have large-scale Evil invasions.

The Holy City's official website also reminded everyone that there was no need to rush to participate.

This reminder... naturally had the opposite effect.

Although, looking at it currently, the affected areas were only a few cities in Ouluoba and Flower Flag Country.

But for something with such obvious benefits, who with the means would not fight to get it?

Never mind that the ceremony seemed to only require taking a few drops of blood.

Even if it meant drawing a vial of blood, there were plenty of people willing to pay their own way to go there!
