The cicada's hum changed, meaning the cicada worms were no longer watching and waiting; the battle was about to begin!
Wen Wen took a deep look at Wu Liugen, feeling that this guy didn't seem like someone from Glory Church and must have a different identity.
The church's glass shattered simultaneously as a dozen cicada worms charged in, their target clear: to kill Wu Liugen.
Wu Liugen calmly retreated behind Yan Xiu, and then the cicada worms seemed to lose their target, circling within the church's space.
Seeing so many cicada worms, Yan Xiu's face instantly turned pale.
...Although he was wearing a mask, so he was already pale.
Of the three present, he was the most nervous. Drawing his Buddha Said Revolver, he began to shoot at the cicada worms, firing five shots consecutively.
He had initially thought the Buddha Said Revolver would be difficult to hit with, but to his surprise, every shot found its mark.
Unfortunately, the Buddha Said Revolver's power was limited. Even when it hit the cicada worms, it only inflicted minor injuries, unable to kill them with a single blow.
Watching the chaotic flight of the cicada worms, Wen Wen's gaze shifted. Observing their flight paths, it seemed they couldn't see the three people in the church...
Otherwise, Yan Xiu's bullets would never have hit them.
This must be Wu Liugen's ability, no wonder he appeared so unconcerned...
But how did he do it?
Illusion or spatial distortion?
It seemed that even if Wen Wen hadn't been present, these dozens of cicada worms wouldn't have posed a problem for this mysterious Wu Liugen.
"Oh, I just noticed you have such a good thing."
Wu Liugen's eyes lit up as he looked at the Buddha Said pistol in Yan Xiu's hand and said, "Let me see that gun."
Yan Xiu was stunned, not understanding why Wu Liugen wanted to see his gun at this moment, but he still handed it over.
After shooting for a while, Yan Xiu also realized that the cicada worms seemed unable to see them.
Wu Liugen played with it for a while before raising the pistol and aiming at a cicada worm flying around like a headless fly.
"Hey, wait, I'm out of bullets here..." Su Dan Novel Network
Before Yan Xiu could finish speaking, he saw the Buddha Said Revolver in Wu Liugen's hand glow, and then he pulled the trigger.
After a loud bang, a bullet composed purely of energy shot out, piercing directly through the head of a cicada worm!
Its power was more than tenfold greater than when it was in Yan Xiu's hands!
Seeing the glowing handgun, Wen Wen's expression became meaningful. The Buddha Said pistol's power had increased in Wu Liugen's hands, coupled with the anomalies he had observed in Wu Liugen earlier.
Wen Wen had already formed some guesses about his identity.
So, Wen Wen took out the Buddha Said Gatling, slung it over his shoulder, and intentionally or unintentionally showed it off to Wu Liugen.
The Buddha Said Gatling had been gathering dust with Wen Wen for a long time. Wen Wen hadn't even bought bullets for it. If it weren't for the fact that this thing was obtained from the Hunter Association, selling it in the containment facility might have exposed his identity. He would have gotten rid of it long ago.
However, this thing might be sold today.
Upon seeing the Buddha Said Gatling, Wu Liugen's eyeballs nearly bulged out. The Buddha Said Revolver in his hand suddenly felt dull and uninteresting.
"Want it? I can sell it to you, but I want to know your background."
Yan Xiu was completely bewildered now. He couldn't understand what these two were doing. With so many deadly cicada worms in the same room, how could these two be calmly engaging in a transaction as if nothing were wrong?
Wu Liugen sighed and said, "Alas, since Benefactor has already guessed, there's no point in my hiding it any longer. I was originally planning to fake my death today and leave Glory Church, so it's alright to tell you."
Fake death?
Wasn't he the one who was supposed to fake his death? How did it become Wu Liugen?
However, he had already been shocked enough today, so he remained expressionless.
Wu Liugen took off the small cap on his head, and then removed his hair.
What appeared before the two was a shiny bald head, with monastic burn scars on the front...
Yan Xiu couldn't figure out what was going on, but Wen Wen felt it was natural. When he took out the Buddha Said Gatling earlier, he had already guessed Wu Liugen's identity.
The Buddha Said pistol was inscribed with six special runes from Buddhism, known as the Six-Syllable Mantra.
Few people in the Federation had heard of Buddhism, but Buddhism had indeed flourished in the Huafu Grand Area for a period.
Buddhism originated in the India Hanging Grand Area and later entered the Huafu Grand Area. It was very prosperous during a certain historical period, but it soon declined.
Now, there were very few Buddhist followers seen in the Federation. Only in a few southern regions of the Huafu Grand Area were Buddhist beliefs still maintained in their entirety.
However, even though Buddhism was not prominent, their items were quite good. Many items in the Hunter Association had Buddhist runes, which had some damaging effect against malevolent powers.
But honestly, that effect was only average and could absolutely not achieve the exaggerated effect Wu Liugen displayed when using the Buddha Said pistol.
Therefore, Wen Wen deduced that Wu Liugen possessed a power source homologous to the runes on the Buddha Said pistol, meaning Wu Liugen originated from Buddhism.
Yan Xiu's brain froze for a moment before he finally understood, pointing at Wu Liugen's bald head and saying, "You were actually sent by Buddhism as a spy to Glory Church!"
Wu Liugen waved his hand and said, "Don't say it so harshly. I, this monk, came to learn the advanced experiences of the Creation Church to develop Buddhism back home."
"That's stealing secrets, isn't it? Usually, that's called being a spy," Yan Xiu said coldly.
"So what if I'm a spy? You won't report me anyway," Wu Liugen said frankly.
The reason Yan Xiu became Wu Liugen's only friend in Glory Church was because of Yan Xiu's wavering faith. Now that Yan Xiu had reached the point of needing to fake his death and abandon his faith, he naturally wasn't worried about Yan Xiu reporting him to the church.
Moreover, even if he were reported, what of it? After tonight, Father Wu Liugen would be dead, and only Master Liugen would remain in the world.
Wu Liugen patted Yan Xiu on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, you will definitely be able to complete your fake death tonight. With so many cicada worms here, no one will believe that the two of us could survive."
Yan Xiu forced a bitter smile. His worry was precisely these cicada worms.
Wen Wen asked curiously, "If I hadn't come, how did Master Liugen plan to deal with these cicada worms?"
Wu Liugen smiled shyly and said, "This monk is not skilled in warfare; I can only rely on my divine abilities to first eliminate the root cause of these cicada worms and then take Benefactor Yan away from here."
"It's your divine abilities that made these cicada worms unable to see us?"
"Hehehe, to call it divine ability is actually what you call superpower. The eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind are the six roots. My divine abilities can completely blind the enemy's five senses – eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and body – making everything they perceive false."
"As for the sixth root, my cultivation is insufficient, and I cannot achieve complete control yet."
Wen Wen's eyes widened. Wasn't this complete hypnosis!
