Chapter 148: The Attack
"I usually pay great attention to hygiene; I've just been too busy to change clothes recently."
William clapped his hands and said.
"Mmph!"
The two figures in black robes looked terrified.
At this moment, their hands and feet were bound, and their clothes had been stripped off, leaving only their white boxers.
Occasionally, people passed by, but upon seeing the scene in the alleyway, they would quickly walk away.
Both men had ordinary appearances, and William had never seen them before.
He looked at the two assassins and said, "I have a few questions. If you answer truthfully, I might consider letting you go."
Then, his tone shifted, and he signaled Judy to cover her ears.
"But if you don't cooperate, I'll have to turn you into 'Human Display Stands' and send you to a nearby bar. It just so happens that the men there have some... unique fetishes."
William gestured in the air.
"You must have seen it before—the kind where the upper body faces backward, and only the lower body faces the audience..."
The two assassins gulped. They couldn't imagine such words coming out of a priest's mouth.
Judy also widened her eyes, thinking to herself, So that's how you threaten people.
Seeing that the two were willing to cooperate, William removed the pants stuffed in their mouths.
"Let's start with the most basic questions..."
After a friendly and cooperative interrogation, William learned the origin of the assassins.
Both came from a cult, and this organization worshiped the Demon God Valak.
Their mission this time was to capture Judy alive, and the higher-ups had specifically ordered that the girl's safety must be guaranteed no matter what.
The organization's target this time was a hospital—the very one where Ed was receiving treatment.
According to one of the assassins, a big shot had recently arrived in the organization, and this person's ability could cause mutations in people.
And every cultist participating in the operation had received a bottle of potion.
William found this item in their robes.
"I advise you to surrender early; this thing allows us to gain the power of the True Lord!"
"Guns, Bibles—none of those work! Only enough slaughter can satisfy it, and many people have come for Memorial Day this time..."
One of the assassins spoke arrogantly.
William immediately pressed that man's head against his companion's buttocks.
"This thing must have a weakness, right?" He looked at the other man and asked.
"Hey... unless you have high-quality holy artifacts. Damn it, Arthur! Don't move your nose around!"
Ned's face changed, and he immediately clenched his buttocks.
"But this stuff is rare in itself; using it on us would be too wasteful. Alright, I've confessed! Hurry up and move that guy's face away!"
He said this very quickly, then stared intently at the priest in front of him.
William shrugged and pulled the assassin named Arthur up.
"Ned, why didn't you wash your butt along with your field uniform last night..."
Before they could argue, William grabbed both their heads and smashed them together.
The two soon fell into a coma.
William did not intend to kill them. In case their deaths attracted some evil spirit, it would only add unnecessary trouble.
Originally, he planned to test the potion on them.
But now that the cult was targeting the hospital, the Warren couple might already be in danger.
Therefore, William had to hurry back.
He forced a bottle of Holy Water down each of their throats, then threw them onto the main street.
After sticking a note with the words "Bad Guys" on them, William quickly left with Judy.
Jefferson University Hospital, Entrance.
"Hey, Kelly!" A young girl hid in the corner and called out in a low voice.
Kelly was a young security guard.
Seeing the visitor, joy appeared in his eyes. Taking advantage of the absence of people around, he walked quickly to the corner.
"Maggie! Why are you here? I'm working."
Just as Kelly finished speaking, he felt the warmth in his arms and the soft touch on his lips.
"I missed you..."
Today was the City Memorial Day, so there were fewer patients visiting.
Therefore, Kelly was also slightly bolder.
"Love is still so disgusting."
At this time, a hoarse voice sounded.
The two were startled, only to see several people in black church robes surrounding them.
"Hey, who are you..."
Kelly just opened his mouth when a black-robed man flashed to his side.
Immediately after, he felt his neck tighten.
"Urgh..."
Kelly looked down and saw only a pale arm, like that of a dead person.
"No! Please, don't!" Maggie knelt aside, pulling at the black-robed man's sleeve.
Slap!
In the next second, a burning palm print was left on the young girl's face.
Seeing his lover humiliated, Kelly immediately resisted with all his might, but he couldn't break free.
"Let's start with you."
The black-robed man's voice was hoarse.
Immediately after, Kelly was pinned to the ground, and a pair of strong hands pried his mouth open.
He looked terrified as he saw the black-robed man leaning close to him.
In the next second.
Blargh...
Jet-black, foul-smelling blood spewed from the black-robed man's mouth, drenching Kelly's head.
Feeling those things rushing into his body, Kelly's whole body began to twist.
Crack... crack...
He felt his "Consciousness" and "Body" split into two parts.
At this time, the black-robed man stood up, and Maggie immediately threw herself over.
"Kelly! What did you do to him!"
She cupped that familiar face, but the expression on it looked extremely painful.
"I grant you 'Freedom'," the black-robed man said.
Then, with a squelch, Maggie only felt a sharp pain in her neck.
She turned her head with difficulty, only to see "Kelly" chewing on something.
Despair filled Kelly's eyes as he watched Maggie collapse onto him.
But he couldn't even make the motion to stroke her.
Gushing blood flowed down his cheeks, mixing with who knows how many tears.
In the next second, "Kelly" bit towards Maggie's neck again.
"Ah... Ahhh!"
The bloody scene instantly caused chaos, and people fled in all directions.
"Sacrifice their souls; don't let a single one go," Belial Stein ordered.
He wore a black robe, his body shrouded in a dense evil aura.
"From now on, this hospital no longer belongs to the human world."
Upon receiving the order, the nearby black-robed men all vanished, and painful screams soon rang out on the first floor of the lobby.
Hospital Reception Desk.
"Which ward are the Warren couple in?"
Belial stared at a nurse.
"Si... Sir, we cannot reveal patient privacy."
"Hehe, your professional ethics command my respect."
Belial immediately grabbed a child beside him; the threat was self-evident.
The nurse was only stunned for a moment before she heard a crack.
Subsequently, a woman lay despairingly on the ground.
"It seems these people can't threaten you."
As Belial spoke, he grabbed the nurse's arm, and the latter soon felt a heart-tearing pain.
"Before I take you apart into spare parts, I suggest you think it over quickly."
Inpatient Department.
Lorraine had just finished wiping Ed's face when she heard the commotion coming from the corridor outside the ward.
She hurriedly got up and opened the door.
At this time, many people were at the door watching the scene.
Before long, several security guards ran anxiously in one direction.
"What happened?"
Lorraine stopped a nurse.
"A group of people broke into the hospital, killed many people, and many monsters appeared!"
The nurse looked panicked, constantly dialing the emergency number.
But the same content came from the other end again:
"Sorry, the number you have dialed is currently out of service area..."
