"Hmm?"
Zhang Wei and the others were startled and looked back towards the Kun Chi Yan Psychiatric Hospital.
The next moment.
Zhang Chao's pupils contracted:
"Holy shit! God?"
The abandoned psychiatric hospital, which had been silent and dead in the darkness, saw the sealed light barrier reappear, emitting a divine and sacred radiance that illuminated everything as if it were daytime, dispelling all sense of terror.
Immediately after.
The sealing light barrier bloomed, transforming into a sky full of starlight, as dazzling and brilliant as heaven, incredibly magnificent.
However.
Neither Zhang Chao nor Zhang Wei were focused on this splendid scene. Their gazes were fixed on the center of the starlight, where the starlight converged, as if connecting to heaven. A sacred figure, radiating light, emerged from within.
"It's not God, that looks like Vatican papal attire."
Zhang Wei observed the figure and said.
Although the figure was condensed from sacred light and its appearance was unclear, the style of the clothing formed by the condensed light was striking, very much like the papal attire of the Vatican. After all, the attire of the cardinals and the Pope of the Vatican had always looked ostentatious, with long robes and tall hats.
"Amitabha, it is the Pope of the Vatican."
Wu Nian clasped his hands together in agreement.
Having come from a papal faction himself, Wu Nian was familiar with the Vatican and recognized the papal attire.
Lu Lianxue also spoke:
"It seems that Abraham was sent flying out of Kun Chi Yan Psychiatric Hospital by Zhang Wei, and the Pope sensed it. After all, it was sealed by the Pope with the Scepter of God. The Scepter of God is the exclusive artifact of the Pope and can sense such things, similar to the function of our Yin Yang Zi Mu Yi."
At the same time.
Under Zhang Wei and the others' gaze.
The Pope's figure materialized. Upon appearing, he swept his gaze across the Kun Chi Yan Psychiatric Hospital. Upon confirming that Abraham was indeed not there, he couldn't help but show surprise.
...
At the same time.
Far away in the Vatican, the Pope was surrounded by several cardinals. He held the Scepter of God, which emitted a dazzling light. Then, a look of surprise appeared on his face:
"I didn't sense it wrong, Abraham is indeed no longer in Kun Chi Psychiatric Hospital. What kind of divine artifact did Zhang Wei refine to be able to break my Scepter of God's seal with a single blow?"
As he spoke.
The Pope did not idle. He controlled his dharma body, which was in the Kun Chi Yan Psychiatric Hospital, to sense Abraham's movements.
It was also at this moment.
A cardinal, upon hearing this, inquired:
"Your Holiness, have you determined Abraham's direction of departure?"
As soon as the words left his mouth.
The cardinals, including this one, all noticed that the Pope's expression was once again one of astonishment, even more shocked than before:
"My God, so far?"
Although Zhang Wei had sent Abraham flying, the Pope remembered Abraham's aura. The sealing power still lingered on him. Through sensing, he discovered that the sealing power had flown a great distance, far beyond his range of perception.
Instantly.
To prevent Abraham from causing excessive slaughter, the Pope, without taking time to respond to the cardinals, urged his dharma body to pursue Abraham along the path he was sent flying.
...
On the other side.
Watching the Pope's dharma body fly away.
"In that direction, the Pope is going to chase Abraham. Let's go, let's go and see. Although we can't see the Blasphemy Association wiped out, we can see the Pope fighting Abraham."
Zhang Wei's eyes lit up and said.
Although he had seen priests from the Holy See exorcise ghosts, this was the Pope, a quasi-national level existence, and he had never witnessed it before.
Zhang Chao chuckled:
"But I'd rather see the Blasphemy Association wiped out. What a shame."
Wu Nian clasped his hands together and said:
"Amitabha, Zhang Chao, your thoughts are like those of a villain. Also... you seem to have spoken true again."
"Spoken true about what?"
"Amitabha, have you forgotten? Before you went in to find Abraham, you casually said to Zhang Wei that something big would happen after entering. Now the Pope and Abraham are... cough, fighting at the Blasphemy Association, does that count as something big?"
"Uh..."
Zhang Chao was stunned. Feeling the gazes of Zhang Wei and the others, the corner of his mouth twitched:
"I just said it casually, it has nothing to do with me."
...
Time flew by.
Blasphemy Association Headquarters.
At this moment.
The entire building was shaking. The President and Abraham were fighting fiercely. With the assistance of other Blasphemy Association members, coupled with it being their own territory with their own formations, and Abraham being heavily injured, the two sides were locked in a stalemate for a time.
In response.
The President could not be happy at all, his expression was somewhat grim:
"Why hasn't Zhang Wei arrived yet? How long until the other reinforcements arrive?"
He was somewhat anxious. While the situation was evenly matched, he was under immense pressure. Abraham, with God's protection, was a significant counter to him. He had to remain constantly vigilant. Once he relaxed, Abraham would seize the opportunity to kill his companions.
And once his companions were killed, Abraham would not hesitate to devour them to recover his injuries.
Because of this.
The President knew very well that if it dragged on, without reinforcements, they would all perish tonight. Furthermore, the situation here would be discovered, as the commotion was too great. If Abraham were not suppressed in time, it would be difficult for others not to know.
The reality was indeed as he had thought.
"What is the Blasphemy Association doing?"
"Hmm? Is that a quasi-national level being fighting? Holy shit, isn't that direction towards the Blasphemy Association?"
"What's going on? Was the Blasphemy Association attacked?"
"It seems to be the Blasphemy Association. Let's go and check the situation. That's the headquarters of the Blasphemy Association, it shouldn't be dangerous."
The speakers were some foreign ghost exorcists located in Seoul City. Due to the previous disappearance cases, many foreign ghost exorcists had come to the country for high rewards to handle supernatural events and earn money.
Now, with a quasi-national level battle and late at night, the entire Blasphemy Association building was making loud noises. Foreign ghost exorcists in the vicinity had all noticed and were heading over to investigate.
Then.
As soon as they arrived, they saw the Blasphemy Association building riddled with holes, and the Blasphemy Association members who had been evacuated to the surroundings.
There are no secrets that cannot be leaked.
After inquiring.
Even though the Blasphemy Association members tried to come up with excuses, through subtle clues and methods like bribery, many foreign ghost exorcists learned of the situation.
These foreign ghost exorcists were shocked and all picked up their phones, either logging onto international forums to share first-hand news or opening their contact lists to share with friends immediately.
In less than half an hour.
Posts, one after another, swept across international forums, all about the news of the headquarters of the Blasphemy Association in the country being attacked.
Overnight.
Many ghost exorcists from various countries were woken up from their sleep, learning that something big had happened in the country. They curiously logged onto international forums to check the situation.
