Chapter 78 - 0078: Rescue
He’s lost control!
This was Su Lu’s only thought when he saw the cloaked man screaming.
Despite the man’s extensive knowledge of the spiritual bodies and his manipulation of the beak monsters to harvest them.
Most of those spiritual bodies were common wandering souls, at most soon-to – become revenants.
This evil spirit was different!
Not only was it extremely cunning, but it also grew rapidly after possessing Kira. After tonight’s ‘blood sacrifice,’ there were signs of it breaking through to the third level!
Two common beak monsters couldn’t restrain it at all!
With ease, the werewolf gentleman tore apart the beak monsters, its crimson pupils fixed directly on the cloaked man.
At this moment, the cloaked man’s screams had subsided, and he hastily tore off his cloak.
“Gasp… What is this?”
After seeing the man’s appearance, Su Lu immediately sucked in a cold breath: “What’s going on?”
The face that this cloaked man was hiding was so pale that it lacked any color, covered with purplish bruises and decaying flesh, emitting the stench of death, and even showed signs of death spots!
This was an animated corpse!
Not only that…his eyes were also the bright red that represents an evil spirit’s possession!
At this time, the animated corpse revealed a ghastly smile: “Come…..let’s see who is stronger, you or my ‘ghost’!”
“A Ghost Trainer?”
Upon seeing the cloak man’s inhuman and unghostly appearance, the [Mystical Scholar]’s knowledge surfaced, allowing Su Lu to identify the man’s identity.
This cloaked man had surprisingly trained a second-tier evil spirit!
Not only that, he has crazily allowed the evil spirit to possess him willingly, creating a bizarrely symbiotic relationship.
Through this relationship, he can just barely control the evil spirit’s power, while his body gradually experiences decay, and ultimately…be swallowed by the evil spirit!
“Anyone who dares tread down this path is the scariest kind of madman.” Su Lu sucked in a cold breath.
If one says that [Spirit Medium} studies the spirit world and spiritual bodies, then they are relatively neutral.
The path tread by such Ghost Trainers was absolutely evil. Once discovered by the church, they must be surrounded and eradicated!
Because while living in symbiosis with the evil spirits, they are inevitably influenced by them, turning them into potentially mentally ill demons, outwardly displaying rage, easily irritated, bloodthirsty, and neurotic.
“On a whole…they pose a considerable threat to society….However, with him controlling a second-tier evil spirit, there’s a battle to be fought! ”
Su Lu curled his lips, took a roundabout way, and stealthily entered Kira’s room.
He hadn’t come specifically to watch the specter fight, once the authorities intervened, everyone would be done for!
His main goal tonight was to rescue Kira Gales!
Well, the evil spirit had already left his body, and at this moment, his body was just an unconscious shell, quite similar to the dead people lying around, and no one would purposely target it.
However, the wound on his leg was a bit troublesome. Su Lu wondered if he would bleed to death, or perhaps turn into a cripple later?
While silently grumbling in his mind, Su Lu quickly pulled out various instruments and carried out the ritual.
Kira Gales’ spirit had been banished to the outermost layer of the Spirit World by the evil spirit, so Su Lu couldn’t find it even if his soul traveled outside his body. The only way was through uncapsuling by conducting a certain ritual.
With his ability as a [Mystical Scholar] at this moment, this wasn’t a problem!
Su Lu took out a silver bowl, a silver knife, and a silver long-mouthed bottle, arranging them in a triangular shape.
Meanwhile, he recited in a low voice in Ancient Hebrew: “The wandering lost spirit in the Spirit World….”
Ancient Hebrew was the universal language of the Transcendent world, inherently possessing mysterious power.
Recited with the mysterious rhythm by Su Lu, it immediately quiets down the surroundings, as if attracting some weird phenomenon.
“In the name of Su Lu Pottery!”
Su Lu recites the second sentence, opening his spirit and infusing it into the ritual.
This was a necessary step. Without the participation of transcendent power, the ritual would hardly succeed — unless it was a kind of sacrifice directly to high-tier life forms.
However, Su Lu would clearly not do so; instead, he chose to propel it with his own strength. This was the safest method, as he had been startled by the influence of the moon last time.
At the same time, he extracted the processed, liquefied blood and poured it into a silver bowl and bottle.
“Summon the lost spirit… thy name is… Kira Gales!”
“May the fresh blood forge a path, heralding your arrival!”
In the final step, Su Lu sliced through the void with a silver knife, an indication of breaking the boundary between the spirit world and reality while sprinkling fresh blood.
Splash!
The fresh blood congealed, leaving a vivid red mark.
“Success!”
Upon completion of the ritual, Su Lu felt his inspiration extending, clearly sensing a convergence of the spirit world and reality.
Meanwhile, an abundance of spirits were attracted.
Unfortunately, due to the ritual’s specificity, they were repelled.
A trail of crimson became the pathway, inviting a vague spiritual body.
He appeared middle-aged, tall with a square face, blue eyes… It was undoubtedly Kira Gales!
“Thank you, my friend!”
Upon seeing Su Lu, he expressed thanks politely and asked, ‘Where is my physical body?”
“It’s outside… The evil spirit has emerged and is currently fighting another hostage of an evil spirit!” Su Lu hastily explained the situation.
Of course, he wouldn’t mention that he was the one who brought these people along.
“Is that so?”
A surprised delight surfaced on Kira’s face.
If the possessing evil spirit initiates to come out, it would save him a lot of trouble.
However, slight sensing of the chaotic outside scene made him frown, “How did it end up like this? We must leave at once! Follow me!”
Guided by his sensation, he floated outside the door and saw his physical body. Without any hesitation, he lunged towards it.
Su Lu deliberately slowed, keeping an eye on the state of the battlefield.
The battlefield was in shambles; Gerald’s subordinates had been nearly completely annihilated due to the residual impact.
As for the cloaked man possessed by an evil spirit, surprisingly, he was no match for the werewolf gentleman spirit!
“Because of the restraint of physical bodies, could they not perform at their fullest? Or is the werewolf gentleman just too powerful?”
Su Lu muttered to himself.
By this time, he had noticed the official forces who had begun to form a fencing circle around: “No, I must leave immediately!”
“Ah!”
Halfway through getting up, Kira Gales’ body shrieked and fell back to the ground: “Help me up, I think my leg is broken!”
“Let’s go!”
Su Lu effortlessly picked up Kira, as if he was holding a chicken.
“We have to return to my bedroom, there are some items inside!” Kira Gales quickly added: “They cannot be found!”
“That’s such a nuisance!”
Su Lu promptly turned around and rushed into the apartment.
At this moment, the evil spirit entangled with the cloaked man detected its body being taken and Kira Gales being released. It howled and disentangled from the cloaked man, turning to pounce towards Kira Gales
“Scram!!”
An enormous spirit oppression was released from Kira’s body. It wasn’t diffusive but concentrated in one direction.
Boom!
The evil spirit was brutally knocked back.
Upon witnessing this, the cloaked man also withdrew. Perhaps due to fear of the forces outside, he immediately blended into the darkness..
