Tokyo: Parasite

Chapter 393 163: Mantis Catches Cicada

Golden and silver armor grew on the places where the monster was moistened by the holy water. It looked not only free of any injuries, but also even better than before.

It flapped its wings, exerted its strength suddenly, and rushed towards Ye Jie in front of it without fear.

The claws as sharp as a mantis have been raised, ready to penetrate it -

Keng!
The monster suddenly stopped in a charging posture, less than one meter in front of Ye Jie, unable to move forward any further. Even its body seemed to be forcibly restrained by some force. Cracks began to appear on its armor, and circles of golden light flashed from its body, as if it was twitching.

No matter how intimidating this monster looks, its actual combat power is just so-so and it is impossible for it to compete with someone like Ye Jie.

He can only rely on his own strong damage reduction to the existence of Holy Light to bully the informal extraordinary people in the choir.

The reason why it didn't fall apart immediately was because Ye Jie was observing carefully and controlled his strength.

However, being able to recover so quickly and use holy water to strengthen herself was indeed beyond her expectations.

But that's it.

"Zi"

As Ye Jie's fingertips slightly hooked, the visor that seemed to be connected to the face moved the monster's head upwards. After making a series of sounds like blood and flesh sticking together, the visor was completely removed.

What was exposed in front of Ye Jie was a bloody face without skin, which made him feel physically uncomfortable.

"What a disgusting blasphemy."

After gently turning the head twice, the monster snapped and completely lost the strength to move. It collapsed to the ground with its armor in tattered pieces.

With the death of the monster, the golden and silver armor turned into drops of clear holy water, peeled off from the monster's body and seeped into the ground.

"I have a monster corpse here and need someone here to retrieve it for a comprehensive inspection." Ye Jie connected to Brand's communication channel.

"Okay, Canis has a lot of experience in this area. I'll have him come find you."

Ye Jie looked at the nun's body and prayed for her.

In a few minutes, a helicopter came with a whooshing sound and hovered above Ye Jie, then found an open space to land.

"Welcome, Goddess Ye Jie. I am Kanis from Rio's extraordinary reception team. On behalf of Sao Paulo and Rio, I welcome you."

Kanis didn't dare to shake hands, but saluted instead.

"I'll trouble you with this body. I need a comprehensive inspection report." Ye Jie didn't hesitate and directly put forward his request.

Kanis did not delay and ordered his men to pack up the monster's corpse and take it away. He also recorded several aspects of the inspection that Ye Jie paid more attention to.

"Please rest assured, the test report will be sent to Pastor Brand as soon as it comes out." Canis tried his best to control his slightly trembling hands.

Normally, he often identified various extraordinary images from the database, and he had seen quite a few of Ye Jie's images. However, when he actually came into contact with her, he felt an extremely strong invisible pressure. In front of her, he seemed to be unable to raise his head at all, feeling ashamed of himself, and looking at her for even a second longer would be considered disrespectful.

"Are all the nights in São Paulo so chaotic?" Ye Jie looked into the distance. She felt that there were many monsters dancing in the darkness, making many people run around in a hurry and causing people to die every moment in the whole city.

Canis smiled bitterly: "These monsters have only appeared recently, but they are getting more and more out of control and more and more violent. But today, there are indeed abnormally many of them. We have lost a lot of people, but we can only barely control the situation."

"I'm going to lose control soon." Ye Jie shook his head and suddenly asked a strange question, "Where is the largest church here?"

"It's St. Paul's Cathedral in the central district." Canis knew the answer to this question.

"What about the Orthodox ones?"

"Well, at present, there is only one church arranged by the Holy See for the monks and nuns of the choir to stay in. Does it count?" This question really stumped Canis.

Rio is a traditional Catholic country. It cannot be said that Orthodoxy has no influence here, but it can be said that it is nothing.

The population influenced by Orthodoxy should not even amount to 300,000 people.

Even Protestantism has more influence than Orthodoxy, with at least millions of followers.

Ye Jie nodded: "I understand."

She didn't care too much. In her opinion, it was all about spreading the Lord's gospel, and there was no big difference. Moreover, the major sects had already reached a cooperative relationship in terms of supernatural powers. The three paladins were just the supernatural representatives of the three sects.

After asking for the general direction, she asked Canis to take the choir sisters back to rest and to take care of the body, which was to be brought back to the Northern Union for burial.

"Don't worry, you've done well enough." After comforting the nun, Ye Jie flew into the sky and flew towards the church.

Kanis then slowly breathed a sigh of relief. Goddess Ye Jie was worthy of her reputation.

In a high-rise hotel in Guangu Building, Fei Du had been overlooking the city from the window for several hours.

He guessed that Ye Jie would arrive quickly, so he separated from Xavier in just two hours and warned Xavier not to appear in the city today.

Immersed in the excitement that his blood could "save" others, Xavier readily agreed to Feidu's request.

Went to one of the safe houses arranged by Feidu.

As for the monster that Ye Jie had just dealt with, it was naturally the latest result of his extraordinary potion, with its powerful effect after being combined with holy water.

In fact, this is not what he wants. After the holy water is mixed in, the balance of the potion is extremely difficult to master, and the user will become extremely thirsty for holy water and will attack the target that possesses holy water at all costs.

It was far from the normal and extraordinary thing he wanted.

At least there was hope that those bloated monsters would mutate further and become controllable again, but the evolutionary direction of those holy water monsters seemed like a freak that longed to transform into an angel and was difficult to control.

However, as a gift to welcome Ye Jie, it is still good.

He chose such a senior executive, took out a telescope, and observed the movements outside.

Let’s see what measures Ye Jie will take when facing such a city-wide riot.

Considering Ye Jie's fame and strength, he did not dare to be negligent and quickly injected the improved drug into a group of desperate people. Now is the time for it to take effect one after another, which will completely turn São Paulo upside down. If he relies on the power of others, he may have to pay a heavy price to eliminate them all.

Of course, Fei Du didn't know that while the mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole is behind it. Everything he did had been seen by others.

"Did you do this?"

In another high-rise hotel, Jingquan Ringo looked at the sporadic flames and thick smoke in the city night scene, and turned his head to look at Augustus who was drinking red wine.

"Yes and no." If you knew the whole story, you would understand what Augustus said, but Jingquan didn't understand and wasn't very interested. She was more concerned about why the other party brought her here.

This is not Japan. After a long time, the Moon Awakener's strength will gradually decline after leaving Japan. So could it be that there was once a Chosen One who retired at the height of his career after awakening and returned to his hometown, and then Augustus forced him out by creating chaos and then discussed cooperation?

"Unfortunately, I'm not sure if he has any connection to the Chosen One, but he is very important to my research."

"So, the purpose of your coming here is indeed to receive a research document?"

"Yes, I told you."

"Yes, but I didn't believe it at the time. Even now, our cooperation has always been limited to the chosen ones of God. After all, you have too many secrets."

Augustus smiled regretfully: "Oh, I'm so sorry. But my secret does not affect your possibility of becoming the Moon Goddess. Let's just watch the scenery that follows. The real show is about to begin."

"Ok?"

Outside the window, in the distance, a light streaked across the night sky and fell towards the church?

Fei Du quickly turned off the lights in the room and hid himself, then carefully drank a bottle of hiding potion, pointed the telescope at the church, and observed carefully.

The São Paulo Cathedral is a landmark building here and the largest church in the country of Rio.

The two symmetrical bell towers stand tall. Although they are not as tall as other tall buildings in the city, their height of more than 90 meters should not be underestimated.

"What is she doing in the church? Is she borrowing some power again?" Fei Du suddenly felt a toothache.

Is Ye Jie the illegitimate daughter of God? !

Sometimes she turns into an angel, sometimes she opens the gate of heaven. If one day she summons Jesus herself and calls him Lao Deng, he would not find it strange.

After a while, he saw many clergymen rushing out of the church square in a hurry, completely losing their usual reserve and grace.

Because this place is in the central area, there are more rich people and fewer desperate people, so Fei Du was indeed unable to deploy too many forces here, making the overall situation here relatively peaceful, and there are also many people going out, especially believers.

Although it is not open at night, if you walk around the church, you might encounter some miracles.

For example, today.

"Brothers and sisters, listen to me!"

As an archdiocese, St. Paul has an archbishop stationed here.

The archbishop, who was usually amiable and always calm, now had a flushed face and was shouting and yelling, completely losing his usual manners.

But his prestige remained, and believers gathered around him subconsciously to listen to his words.

"The breath of sin has polluted this place blessed by the Lord. The whispers of the devil have caused the Lamb to degenerate and become a monster. The goddess cannot bear to see the lives of the people suffer, so she will perform a miracle. You and I must pray devoutly for it. We will be bathed in the miracle, defend the religion and the country, and on the day of rest we will be led by angels, the gates to heaven will be opened, and we will be with the Lord forever. Amen!"

He did not repeat the words himself, but fearing that there was not enough time, he was the first to kneel down and pray facing the church, and asked people around him to spread the news.

Soon, as the news reached everyone's ears, without any hesitation, the crowd knelt down and prayed.

Some people were still envious of Rio becoming the City of God in the morning, but they didn't expect that they would have the opportunity to witness a miracle with their own eyes in the evening.

This place is indeed an old parish. A large amount of devout faith power has gathered here. Ye Jie in mid-air only feels that his physical strength is replenished rapidly. Even the holy water bottle, which had already condensed half a drop of real holy water, is now slowly condensing into a complete drop.

"Come and show me where the devil who caused all this is hiding."

Ye Jie dripped out a drop of pure holy water, floated it on his two fingers, prayed for it, injected more strength into it, and then threw it towards the middle of the two bell towers.

The pure holy water floated slowly and lightly, without any threat, to the center of the two bell towers.

The power of everyone's faith suddenly materialized at this moment, like strands of silk threads, from the people praying in the church square, from the devout believers in each neighborhood, from all the believers in the city, transformed into strands of silk threads, some gold and some silver, converging between the two bell towers, above the main entrance of the church.

The curious person stretched out his hand cautiously, but was unable to touch the strands of silk. He could only watch them float to the same place and slowly gather into a huge ball of light.

The light ball emits a light that is not dazzling at all. People can look directly at it and even see which strand of light emanating from their body becomes part of the light ball, which ray, which eyelash.

As the ball of light gradually became complete, people could slowly distinguish clearly that the outline of the ball of light was clearly an extremely large closed eyeball.

Behind the eyeball, more and more wings of light emerged, and circles of sacred rune words formed circles of light around the eyeball, rotating continuously.

The eyelashes of the eyeballs trembled slightly. This unknown existence finally slowly opened its eyes.

A sacred eye seems to be watching everyone. Even if there are countless buildings between them, one can still feel a calm gaze.

Can't breathe without poison.

He regretted that he should not have let his greed get the better of him. Even if it would shake his own image, he should have fled Sao Paulo with Xavier.

He's so stupid, really.

If he were given another chance, even if it meant abandoning Xavier, he would rather leave on his own. He should never have been so confident as to try to deal with someone like Ye Jie.

Unfortunately, everything has already happened and he no longer has the power to regret.

Fei Du struggled to resist the terrifying gaze and took out the emergency communication device.

"Xavier. Save me."

Only when death is about to come can he realize the preciousness of life.

What experiment, what sixth extraordinary channel, all go to hell. Only by staying alive, yes, only by staying alive, can you have a chance to see victory.

He must survive, he must survive!
In the future, he will definitely have the opportunity to find a perfect experimental subject as stupid and easy to control as Xavier.

"Teacher? Teacher?! Hold on! I'm coming to save you!"

Fei Du felt like his heart was about to stop beating. The potion he was so proud of was of no help at all at this moment.

"Got you."

Ye Jie slowly opened his eyes and looked towards the tall building.
