Provent's mental state was obviously already on the verge of collapse, and the slightest violent stimulation was afraid that he would never be able to save it.

"It's a real prick. But with my current ability, I should be able to handle it. Jobbuterrand thought to himself.

So Jobbutran ordered his deputy, Tristne, to fetch the Holy Light Sutra, Holy Water, and some other items needed for the ritual, which must first be preliminarily purified and stabilized his current spirit, and then proceed to the baptismal ceremony.

These occult knowledge are acquired after entering the Mystery Investigation Bureau and are taught by a special person to deal with some emergency situations.

Jobbuterrand told Philip to go upstairs and wait for a while, then closed the door and lit three candles.

For the Light, three is a sacred number, representing the Light, the Son and the Holy Spirit, so when performing this ritual, the three candles represent the grace and will of the Light.

Jobuterrand opened the Book of Light and turned to the Gospel of Mattei, and chanted,

"God, be with us.

But he who endures to the end will be saved. ”

①

Chobuterron poured out the holy water, dipped some olive branches and sprinkled it on Pvent, only to see that in the process of reciting the scriptures, some divine power shrouded the Holy Light Sutra, turning into a light as thin as spider's silk and entangled Pvent's body.

Some of the filth hidden in the depths of the spirit was cleared from Prvent's mind by the light, and the divine power contained in the holy water sprinkled on Prvent dissolved into each other, and the holy water dissolved into water vapor and disappeared into the air.

It was just an ordinary purification ritual, and it had already unearthed so much filth, proving that the spirit had been invaded by large-scale pollution before.

Chobuterrand frowned and thought, "This is a big project." ”

While purifying, Tristhene used some alchemy tools to concoct some essential oils on the side, which would be more accurate for the upcoming baptism or exorcism.

The preliminary purification was hastily over, and a dazed Pvent was tied to the bed. All limbs were secured with hemp rope by Tristne to avoid accidents during the following rituals.

The raw materials of these hemp ropes are woven with tough but soft Luo Bu hemp crochet, and the four-strand structure plus long-term soaking in tung oil can make this Luo Bu hemp rope more durable.

After immobilizing Pvent, Tubtrand sprinkled some of the essential oil Tristhene had prepared on the ground. This time with olive oil as the base note, it is accompanied by calendula oil and a dash of angelica oil.

The unique fragrance of Angelica emanated into the room, and Jobland's Scripture opened the Sutra of Light again, but this time Tubtuberrand was no longer holding the Sutra of Light, but laying it flat on Pvent's body.

Once again, Jobuterrand recited the verses of the Gospel of Mattei,

"Ye Su called twelve disciples and gave them authority to cast out unclean spirits and heal all kinds of diseases!" ②

Pvent's body trembled with the scriptures, his face distorted, and his face, which had been very haggard and pale, was now bloodless.

Pvent kept trying to break free on the bed, but it was all unconscious, and he uttered words that normal humans couldn't understand, like the voices of malicious creatures.

Tristne's twine, which had previously tied Provent, came in handy, preventing Provent from tumbling out of bed and attacking the two.

Seeing this, Jobuterrand continued to turn the pages of the Holy Light Sutra to the Gospel of Mark, and continued to recite the scriptures,

"And the disciples went out to preach, and brought people to repentance, and cast out many demons, and anointed many sick with oil, and healed them." ③

The remaining essential oil was then applied to Pvent's forehead.

The oil rattled on Pwente's forehead, as if it would be boiled and evaporated, leaving small wounds that looked like burns.

These wounds will heal in a few days, because angelica is an excellent wound medicine, which has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and it is clear that this formula is the best formula after many experiments.

The calendula in the essential oil worked at this point, calming down Pvent's beastly behavior.

Tubtrand breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately the baptism ritual had worked, otherwise he would have almost gone through a real exorcism, and the consequences would be unimaginable if the exorcism failed.

He remembered the mistakes of his mentor, who was once an exorcist, but he had a regret that the failed experience of the exorcism led to the loss of a life.

Jobutron's mentor was a well-known exorcist who had successfully exorcised demons from his victims on several occasions, but still regretted that failure for the rest of his life.

His name is Arnold. Lentz, who belongs to the Yesu Society, ostensibly is a priest.

He often wears a black robe, the thirty-three buttons on the robe symbolize Nosu's thirty-three years in the world, and there is a white collar around the collar and neck: a Roman collar, stuck in the throat to remind him to be cautious.

Under the collar are two white bags about 15 centimeters long, which symbolize the split sermon belt of the Old and New Testaments. The black robe symbolizes imperfection and repentance, as well as humility and teachability. Carrying a bag on his shoulder, symbolizing the begging of the Lord for wisdom and knowledge. ④

Arnold traveled the country and preached the Lord's teachings on a daily basis, until one day he received an e-mail from the city of Leiblefinger. The sender was from a local priest, who mentioned in the letter that a man named Annalise. Mitch's Girl Suspected of Being Possessed by a Demon, (5)

The situation worsened after the local priests and priests performed the exorcism, and they had no clue or anything to do about it, so they had to invite Arnold, a professional exorcist, to solve the problem. The letter also contains an intriguing phrase: I can't do anything about it.

The letter was accompanied by two photos, one of which was of a girl with a beautiful face and a cute elf, and the other of the girl with a distorted face, large and small scars on her face, and a marked deterioration in her physical condition.

After obtaining permission from the bishop, Arnold set out for Aenalis's residence.

Before I could enter the door, I heard the sound of roaring, crying, and breaking glass coming from inside the room.

Arnold pushed open the unlocked door and strode into the room where the noise came from.

The moment the priest stepped into the room, all the roaring and crying stopped.

The girl tied up on the bed looked at Pastor Arnold and said,

"I'm not sick, I'm not epileptic, I'm not schizophrenic. I'm still me, do you believe me? ”

Pastor Arnold took a cross made of sterling silver from his pocket and put it on the girl's hand, and said,

"I believe in you, we are all lambs of the Lord."

The girl looked at the cross, her eyes were not frightened, she did not resist, and after a short rest, she fell asleep.

Annalise's family was a little wary of the stranger who suddenly broke into the house, but when they saw Arnold's priestly outfit and the phenomenon that calmed Annalise instantly, they chose to believe him defenselessly.

"I'm Arnold, a pastor from the Wild Shrine. Lenz, can anyone tell me what happened before I came? I needed all the information and details. Arnold said calmly.

Father Joseph said with a panicked face,

"Pastor, please sit down, we are members of the Holy Light Society, we are all devout Christians, we go to Mass twice a week, I didn't expect such a thing to happen to Annalise. When she was sixteen years old, she was diagnosed with epilepsy by doctors due to severe convulsions. Five years ago, in June, Annalise was being treated in a psychiatric hospital for a seizure, but she told the doctor that she could see all kinds of grimaces, in the fog in the windows, in the puddles after the rain. Doctors believe that she has hallucinations caused by schizophrenia and insanity, so she has a disordered behavior and can see hallucinations. ”

Arnold interrupted Joseph's speech and said,

"You mean, five years ago?"

Joseph nodded and continued,

"Yes, she started taking convulsive drugs and chlorpromazine five years ago. And three years ago, poor Annalise confirmed that she was depressed. Long-term psychotropic medication did not improve any of her symptoms, and she even claimed to have heard the strange sound of curses. ”

Arnold asked,

"What kind of curse is it?"

Joseph made a cross on his chest and said,

"That is filthy language, the content of which is that your soul will rot in hell and become a part of us as a sludge of sin."

Arnold motioned for Joseph to continue, and took a sip of the water he had brought with him.

"We thought that science and medicine could no longer help her, so we tried to ask for divine power from the Light. We had made a pilgrimage to San Damiano, but when she saw the cross she started screaming, and the priest brought the sacred spring water, but she refused to drink it. We asked the priests in the community to perform an exorcism, but it didn't work out as well.

Gradually, her physical condition deteriorated, she became aggressive, self-harmed, devoured insects, and licked her own urine.

By three o'clock in the evening, she would take on a twisted posture, moving on the floor with her head facing upwards and her limbs supported downward, and her mouth would make sounds similar to those of a beast. We were all terrified. ”

As Joseph spoke, he was frightened by his daughter's inhuman behavior.

"Can you tell me how Annalise reacted during the priest's exorcism?" Arnold asked.

"We weren't there during the ceremony, just Father Priest and Gramm. Dr. Cartwright was present. Joseph replied.

"I see, to be able to take Father Gram. Is Dr. Cartwright please? I need everything they witness. Arnold said.

Joseph looked embarrassed and said,

"Dr. Graham should be fine, but the priest has passed away, just the night before."

Arnold was shocked, and it turned out that the words I could not do were the last words of the priest.

Arnold drew a cross on his chest and recited the name of the Trinity, then got up and walked to the door, calling out to Joseph,

"Let's go, we don't have much time, let's go find Dr. Gramm right away."

Department of Psychiatry, St. Mary's Hospital

Pastor Arnold was led by Joseph to find Dr. Gramm, who saw the arrival of two uninvited guests, but did not show any surprise, as if he had been waiting for a long, long time. Dr. Graham spoke,

"You two, please be seated. I'm Gramm. Cartwright, Annalith's attending physician. ”

After glancing at Arnold, Dr. Graham said to himself,

"The priest needed a psychiatrist to observe the patient's physical and mental state, and I was the best person to do as the attending doctor. I agreed, but I regret it now. After I witnessed the scene of the exorcism, I don't think she was sick. I've seen quite a few mentally ill people, and some of their symptoms are very severe, but they don't scare me. Since I started my medical career, there has not been a case that can compare to hers. ”

Graham paused and continued,

"Holy Light, if I had known that it was so terrible, I would not have gone that night, it horrifies me. I did a basic survey of her before I went back that night, and she was very conscious and fully aware of the presence of something in her body... Stuff... When those things don't control her, she's still herself, completely normal herself. You know, a madman doesn't know he's a madman, which contradicts what I've learned about psychosis. ”

Arnold interrupted Dr. Gramm's speech and asked,

"What about time? Time is of the essence. ”

"It was three o'clock in the afternoon." Dr. Gramm replied.

"At three o'clock in the afternoon, the time when Ye Su died, symbolized the time when the world was red with the blood of the Holy Son and forgiven. A smart choice. Sorry for interrupting your remarks, please continue. ”

Dr. Graham continued,

"At the beginning of the ceremony, we smelled a burnt smell, and the ominous smell unnerved me, and I stood in a corner on the edge. Originally, Aenaryse held a puppet in the image of a rabbit in her arms, which is the kind of rabbit image that is common at Easter.

She was a normal girl at the time, maybe just looking a little haggard and emaciated, but I can assure you that she was normal at the time. We tied her limbs with hemp rope to stabilize her in the church, and she did not resist and encouraged us with clear eyes.

When the priest began to recite the scriptures, things became no longer normal. Her gaze turned to that of a beast, and she struggled hard, breaking one of the hemp ropes. It amazed me and frightened me. Her mouth began to speak ancient languages, Latin, Hebrew, and Greek, and another one I didn't recognize, maybe Aramaic? ”

"Aramaic?" Joseph asked.

"The language of Gidu and his followers is also one of the mother tongues of the Semitic people." Arnold explained.

At this time, Dr. Graham leaned forward, slapped the table with both hands, and said in a deep voice,

"Do you know what's the scariest thing? These words were spoken at the same time. This cannot be explained by science. The Heavenly Father's impermissible existence hid in the girl's body, roaring in the whispers of the devil, I am the soul that dwells in this body. At this time, I noticed that the cross in the church was turned upside down, and the face of the cross changed to the image of a dragon with horns.

I'm pretty sure that's Satan!

The stained glass in the church was shattered by the girl's roar, and a piece of stained glass that originally depicted Nosu's exorcism as a spicy man shattered above the priest, and a piece of glass with Nosu's eyes fell from a high place and stuck into the priest's chest.

I was very scared, but luckily I hid in a corner in advance and was not affected. But the strange thing is that these glasses are cleverly avoided by Annalise. ”

"I see, thank you for your message, please take this cross, may the Holy Light bless you." Arnold gave Dr. Graham the cross he had with him, got up and left the hospital with Joseph.

Joseph followed Arnold and asked, "Are we going back to exorcism now?" ”

Arnold shook his head and said with a solemn expression,

"Nope! We're going to get ready! ”
