Chen Zhao and David waited for Sienna at home. Half an hour later, Sienna and Chris returned.
However, Sienna seemed to be in a mess. Her face was covered in dirt and she seemed to have rolled on the ground. Chen Zhao had no idea what had happened to her.
"Sienna, what happened to you?"
"Don't talk about it. It's that old dormitory in UCLA. There's a small evil spirit group there. I can't get rid of it. Chen, I've helped you so many times. Shouldn't you help me once too?"
"How many times have you helped me?"
"That's not important. Shouldn't friends help each other?"
Chen Zhao thought about it. Putting their relationship aside, getting rid of the evil spirit would give him angelic crystals. It wasn't a loss.
"After I get Ken out of the police station, I'll go with you to the place you mentioned."
With Chen Zhao's promise, Sienna's face lit up. "Then hurry up. The reward isn't low. Tell me about your situation."
"We found a suspected witch in the town," David repeated Bant's words.
"It's not suspected. This old woman is definitely a witch." After hearing David's statement, Sienna replied firmly, "And I suspect that she's already dead."
"What? Dead? "
"This old woman should be a toxicologist. Her body is already dead, but she used Soul Binding to bind her soul to her body and turn it into a ghoul. She needs the blood of living things to maintain her body functions and not rot …" Sienna's expression was serious. "Chen, this old witch is definitely stronger than me. Can you handle her?"
"I'm not sure. If it was a pure evil spirit, I would have a 90% chance of winning. However, this is an old woman whose life or death is unknown. I really don't know how to deal with her. What's so special about voodoo masters? Like what I need to be on guard against? "
"She's a ghoul now. Just head-on attacks are more dangerous than the most ferocious beasts on land, not to mention magic. Guns are useless against her. Also, her soul has turned into an evil spirit."
"You said that if a witch turns into an evil spirit, it will be very dangerous, right?" David remembered.
When she'd protected Aisha for the third night, Sienna had said that if a witch turned into an evil spirit, it would be very terrifying. Even she wouldn't be able to control it.
"Yes." Sienna nodded. "Voodoo masters are also good at using magic poisons and curses. They're more dangerous than other witches, so this old witch has become the most dangerous monster."
Hearing that, David could not help but gulp. He turned to look at Chen Zhao.
"I have something that can deal great damage to evil spirits," Chen Zhao said. "It can even kill evil spirits directly, but I'm not sure if it'll work on ghouls."
"What is it?"
Chen Zhao placed the angelic crystal in his spatial ring on the table.
Everyone looked at the dozen white crystals of various sizes and looked at Chen Zhao in confusion. "What are these?"
"Don't worry about what this is. Anyway, this thing is very destructive to demons and evil spirits."
Sienna picked up an angelic crystal. "It's filled with a holy aura. I have an idea."
"What do you plan to do?"
"I'll take care of it, but it'll take some time."
"How long?"
"About a day or two, mainly because the materials are hard to find."
"What do you need? I might have it," Chen Zhao said.
"No need. I said I'd help you," Sienna interrupted. "Anyway, I can take care of this."
"Most importantly," Chen Zhao added. "Even if we know it's related to this old witch, how can we clear Ken's name?"
"But if we tell the police that Deppler was killed by an old woman over a hundred years old, they'll probably arrest us first, right?" Chris said.
"Unless we can get the key evidence," David said. "Chen, didn't you say it's related to the winery owner, Trede Pemton?"
"It's just a suspicion. I can't be sure." Chen Zhao was suspicious, but there was no clear evidence to prove that it was related to Trede.
"Then we'll make them expose themselves," David said.
"How?"
"If they know that I'm investigating and appeared in front of Trede Pemton, they might use me as a sacrifice to hide the truth."
Chen Zhao frowned and shook his head. "That's too dangerous. Let me be the bait."
"Chen, I drank your potion. My body is at least twice as strong as a normal person."
"Can you catch a bullet?"
"Uh … No."
"So, it's useless no matter how strong you are."
Just then, Fali returned. Everyone stopped talking.
Fali glanced at the people in the living room. "Is there something you're not telling me about?"
"No," everyone said in unison.
"You must be hiding something from me," Fali said.
"It's useless to tell you. There's an old monster in town," Chen Zhao said. "So, starting from tomorrow, Fali and Walter will stay by your side. Chris and Carrie will stay by your side. David, you walk around town more often. Beelzebub will stay by your side. Sienna, keep Raymond by your side."
When they heard that everyone would get a pet, they were overjoyed.
Last time, they'd personally witnessed how terrifying these pets were in the reflective barrier.
"David, Sienna, don't expect Beelzebub and Raymond to be able to use much of their strength. Under normal circumstances, they're just two pieces of trash."
Woof, woof —
Beelzebub expressed his dissatisfaction with Chen Zhao with his barking. Chen Zhao rolled his eyes at him. You're still not convinced that you're trash?
"But they're more sensitive to danger than you are. If they notice danger, turn and run. Don't hesitate." Chen Zhao kicked Beelzebub. "When this is over, I'll reward you. If you mess it up, you'll be thrown into the frying pan."
Hearing Sienna's description, Chen Zhao already realized that the situation this time was completely different from the previous times.
The first time, the scene was the biggest and scariest, but Blackie was there.
Blackie was the nemesis of evil spirits. No matter how many came, they would just die.
The second time was in the Reflection Demon's barrier. The Reflection Demon was indeed scary, but Beelzebub and Raymond could also use part of their strength. Plus, Chen Zhao's right hand had activated the Bloodline of Gluttony and swallowed the Reflection Demon's projection.
But this time, he couldn't count on Beelzebub and Raymond. Carrie's suppression wasn't enough for her to use much of her strength. Walter, on the other hand, only had brute force. He didn't have any advantage against the ghoul and evil spirit.
In the end, he could only hope that the angelic crystals would be useful.
Otherwise, Chen Zhao could only take out all the demonic ritual implements he had and summon a demon army.
But Chen Zhao still hoped that things wouldn't go to that extent.
