"Can this … really save my parents?" Pei Lin asked blankly.
"Of course … as my apprentice, you should have confidence in the power of the holy light." The male voice smiled.
"But … why do I feel like everything around me is rejecting me …" Pei Lin's body was trembling. It was an instinctive fear of the world rejecting her.
As she became the Holy Sanctum's tracking tool, the world instinctively realized that she was the source of the Corruptors. So the rejection force began to squeeze her as well.
"Don't worry … soon, we will solve this problem …" Lin Sheng comforted her gently. "But before that, we need a little sacrifice … a little extra sacrifice."
"What else … do we need?" Pei Lin asked, her face pale.
"A permanent waymark. The very first spiritual waymark … "Lin Sheng said softly.
As soon as he said that, Pei Lin suddenly felt as if the world around her was unleashing a massive malice.
The malice was like a huge shadow and monster, pouncing on her from all directions.
"What … what do I need to do??" She tried her best to hold on, her voice trembling.
Because she knew that the only thing she could rely on now was the holy light.
"Don't be afraid. You just need to draw two more ritual circles. Of course, the primer will need your blood. "Lin Sheng gently guided her.
"…" Pei Lin bit her lip, her face pale. She picked up the red pen and went to another designated spot to draw new circles.
At the same time, in every corner of the city surrounding the Pei Residence, a large number of black-robed men, under the concealment of a special dark power spell, were constantly carving a huge array in the dark.
The blood-colored circles were taking shape in large numbers.
The circles were slowly forming into a huge circle, with the circles Pei Lin had drawn as the core, nested into a new complete whole.
* Tap tap tap tap … *
The crisp sound of footsteps echoed in the airport hall.
The plane slowly rose into the air outside the huge french window.
A woman in a white suit with white heels suddenly stopped in her tracks and looked at the huge plane outside the window.
"What is it, Lady Xia Yin?" Behind the woman was a large group of well-dressed men and women.
They were the local officials of the city, from the administrative department to the security department, almost everyone involved in this incident was here.
Xia Yin shook her head slightly.
"It's nothing. I just suddenly remembered something that happened when I came here in the past. Alright, let's not waste any more time. We have to deal with the attack on Councilman Pei's family as soon as possible. "
She was the representative of the Daywalker Council.
But before she came, she knew very well that the entire city was actually in the hands of the Pei family. Pei Shangyu being attacked was such a big case, no one would believe that the Pei family was not behind it.
That was why the higher-ups chose to send her down this time.
"In such a terrible situation … it seems that we have no choice but to resort to violence …" Xia Yin sighed.
Her purpose this time was not to solve the case, but to rescue Pei Shangyu and his wife, Zhuang Qing, as well as her daughter, Pei Lin.
As long as their personal safety was guaranteed, it was fine.
Although he knew that the chances were slim, after all, so much time had passed. However, Xia Yin was never one to give up before trying.
So she came.
At a time when Myriad rank Corpsedemons had yet to appear, her strength could be ranked in the top three of the Daywalker Council.
Coupled with the help of other potential forces, there was still a chance of rescuing them.
"Now that Pei Shangyu's whereabouts are unknown, he is suspected to be in the hands of the Pei family. But we have already gotten hold of Zhuang Qing's whereabouts through our spies. "The mayor of Uman City was a line-level Corpsedemon expert.
In essence, the factions of the Corpsedemons were divided into two types.
One was purely proficient in physical combat, and the other was proficient in combining technology and physical combat.
And this mayor was trained in the military, and was a Corpsedemon expert of the second type.
Although it was just a line-level bloodline, by combining firearms and various modern weapons, he could even unleash combat power that was close to the level of Faceless.
"Then let's act immediately, it's fine if we can save one." Xia Yin said calmly. "We don't have much time, the Pei family would definitely know of my arrival, so we must act quickly."
"Understood." The officials quickly replied.
…
…
As if it was instinct.
A large number of powerful Corpsedemons seemed to have sensed that there was a huge undercurrent surging in the direction of Uman City.
A terrifying sense of crisis, as if a great calamity was about to befall them, prompted all the powerful corpse demons to swarm toward this place.
It was as if some kind of instinct was urging them to rush there, to stop the impending horror.
In just a day, all the forces around Uman City that could be gathered in a short period of time had all gathered here.
A large number of Corpsedemon powerhouses, as if they were summoned, all flowed into this small territory controlled by the Pei family.
At the same time.
In every corner of the city, the secret confrontation between the clergies and the Corpsedemons was getting more and more intense.
Inside the Pei family's residence.
Berman quietly hid in the shadows, not daring to move.
For an entire day, he watched as Pei Lin drew ritual formations of different sizes on the ground.
The ritual, although it had a strong holy and solemn style, it gave him an extremely evil and dangerous feeling.
This strange combination of two styles made Berman's sense of danger rise to the extreme.
He could see that Pei Lin's nerves were now stretched to the limit.
She was like a spring, if she was careless and provoked, she could completely collapse.
So he did not dare to show himself.
Pei Lin was the only one in the house, but he had a feeling that something extremely dangerous was hidden in the darkness. As long as he showed himself, he could face extreme fear.
"Dad … Mom …"
In the darkness, Pei Lin hugged her knees in the bedroom, curled up on the bed, and buried her haggard face in her arms.
She was only a young girl in her teens after all. In such a short period of time, she had gone through so many changes, and had to make so many important decisions. Even if she was mentally mature, she could not take it anymore.
A strong sense of fear, which she wanted to escape from, gushed out from the depths of her heart.
She wanted to find a warm embrace, a safe place to lean on, and hide like an ostrich.
But now that her parents were missing, she could not indulge her fear no matter what.
Beep beep beep …
Suddenly, her phone rang beside her pillow.
As if shocked, Pei Lin quickly picked up her phone to check.
Unfortunately, the caller ID was not from her parents, but an unknown number.
She put it down in disappointment, but still pressed the button to answer.
"Hello? Who is this? "
"Hello, is this Miss Pei Lin?" A cold and solemn female voice came from the phone.
"Yes, this is Pei Lin."
"Okay, about the disappearance of councilman Pei, we need you to cooperate with our investigation. Ask for clues and information. It might be helpful in finding your parents. When do you have time to come to the police station? "
"Police station …" Pei Lin's eyes flashed with a glimmer of hope.
Maybe the police station could help, if it was the government …
"I can come now!!" She quickly answered.
She had completed the ritual formation today, the only thing missing now was a little extra sacrifice, and the sign that the Holy Light teacher mentioned.
