Jimmy thought it would take them at least nearly 2 hours to arrive, but Lambert's phone rang just over half an hour.

Lambert took Jimmy and Sam out of the police station, got into the car and drove straight to the north of town, where a helicopter had stopped in the clearing, and the fan blades were close to stopping.

A middle-aged man in a black priest's uniform and a young man in a white church uniform stood next to the helicopter, Lambert asked Sam to drive the car directly to the helicopter, he got out of the car and shook hands with the priest, the two got into the car and headed straight for the Red River, Jimmy led the way, all the way to the bend of the Red River.

The crowd got out of the car, and Lambert stood by the river with Father Houghton, "This is it, Father Houghton, please."

Jimmy hadn't been to the river since he saw the Thread Heart Eye upgrade, and knowing that this was the center, perhaps the most dangerous place, he instinctively avoided this place and only looked for clues outside.

This time when he came to the river, he could already detect the problem, at the bottom of the river around the corner, there was a completely different color from the surrounding land, if the land was black, this piece was gray mixed with changing lines, with the arrival of everyone, some lines have a tendency to move in the direction of everyone, but they haven't stretched out much, and they go back again.

It's noon, and maybe the sun can really suppress this kind of thing. Thinking so, Jimmy had been observing Father Houghton, and the priest's attendant opened the box he had brought with him, took out a cross from it, handed it to Father Houghton, and then took two more bottles out of the box.

Father Houghton stood in front of the crowd, facing the river, holding a Bible in his left hand and a cross in his right hand, and whispered something, after which the priest lifted the cross above his head, and the sun shone on the cross, casting the shadow of the cross on the river.

"Ah~~"

A piercing sound came, Jimmy's brain felt like it had been punched, it was very uncomfortable, the sound was even more uncomfortable than the sharp toothache sound of a knife scraping glass, Jimmy felt a headache and nausea, involuntarily bent down, covered his ears with his hands, opened his mouth and shouted, but he didn't make a sound.

The sound lasted only for a short time, and when the sound died down, Jimmy finally relented, and he looked up at the person next to him, as if he was the only one affected by the sound, Father Horton had already taken the cross back to his chest, and both Lambert and Sam turned their heads to look at him, their mouths wide open, and their faces were surprised.

Jimmy's appearance just now was not acting, and that kind of real facial expression showed that Jimmy was indeed very uncomfortable, but why wasn't the others affected?

[In other words, it is the best way to read aloud and listen to books at present, @

What does it mean, to be sure, it's definitely not the English alphabet.

When Horton was finished, he stood up, took his Bible and cross from his assistant, said something in a non-English tone, and then lifted the cross and projected it again onto the river.

Jimmy didn't look at Horton again, but looked at the abnormal area at the bottom of the river, as Horton's tone changed, the gray shadow area changed, some lines left the gray shadow, flew out of the river, and threw all the symbols that Horton had just drawn on the ground, but Jimmy didn't see any changes in the ground symbols, it was amazing.

As more and more lines flew out of the river, the gray shadow suddenly ***, a large gray shadow left the river, came to the river, now I can see clearly, this is the fog that Jimmy saw yesterday, but it may be the relationship of quantity, the fog that looked like a lot yesterday, today is a little too thick.

Father Houghton placed the cross on his chest as the mist rose to the surface of the river, and as the mist rushed towards him, his hand holding the cross suddenly changed from holding the bottom of the cross to holding the middle of the cross, as if holding a long sword, and slashing at the mist.

In Jimmy's eyes, compared to yesterday, the fog was thicker than yesterday, but there were more white spots, yesterday there were only 6 white spots, and today there are more than a dozen of them, some of which move fast, moving back and forth within the fog range.

As Father Horton swung his sword with the cross a few times, some white spots in the mist suddenly disappeared, and these white spots disappeared very regularly, basically on the route of the cross wave, and a few white spots were not even touched by the cross, which was very weird, if there was an extra sword in front of the cross.

Father Horton had obviously practiced the use of the sword, holding the Bible in his left hand on his chest, holding the cross in his right hand and waving it with one hand, and his feet were also moving according to the mist, if he couldn't see the fog mass, he felt like he was similar to the person who danced the great god, or he used a green screen to perform in a movie, and then added special effects in the later stage.

With Father Horton's attack, the fog mass is gradually dissipating, and finally some of the remaining fog suddenly retracts and prepares to escape, Jimmy pulled out his revolver and shot at the only three white spots on the fog, this time the shot was completely subconscious, but he didn't want the fog to escape, but it was these 6 shots that knocked out the three white spots on the fog that moved quickly.

….

The fog dissipated before it could return to the river, and Horton turned to look at Jimmy, frowning, "How did you do that?"

Jimmy pulled 6 rounds out of his pocket, shook his head as he reloaded, and said, "I don't know, I just saw that it wanted to run away, so I shot it."

"Poof", after the fog dissipated, the symbol that Horton had drawn on the ground made a soft sound, and spontaneously combusted, burning very quickly, leaving only a few symbol-style black ashes on the ground.

Horton looked at Jimmy, the spontaneous combustion of the ground symbol did not make him turn his head, and Jimmy also looked at Horton after seeing the spontaneous combustion of the symbol.

Houghton: "Stand still with your back to the sun."

Holden gestured to the assistant, who came up to Jimmy, and Holden walked up behind Jimmy, who opened it with his left hand and placed the cross on it, his right hand covering the cross.

After standing still for more than a minute, Horton picked up the cross and pressed it to Jimmy's back.

"Ah~~" Again, Jimmy once again felt the feeling of being tingled in his brain just now, with a headache, nausea, and his body involuntarily bent down, and the assistant in front of him suddenly grabbed Jimmy's hands and pulled them left and right.

"Ah~~" Jimmy shouted, this time he could shout, instead of just opening his mouth but not being able to make a sound.

One breath has been exhaled completely, Jimmy's screaming has stopped, because of the pain, he even forgot to breathe, and finally the assistant let go of his hands, Jimmy fell directly to the ground, unconscious.

Jimmy couldn't see his own situation, and Horton behind him was relieved. Jimmy's abnormal performance had made Horton feel that something was wrong, and he shot the last of the fog masses just now, which directly made Horton confirm his thoughts.

Generally speaking, the people who can kill the spirits are usually witchers or ecclesiastical people

and the monks of various hermitages, in addition to all kinds of demon-slaying weapons, they basically rely on the blessing of faith and will to eliminate or expel demonic spirits.

Jimmy is just an FBI agent, and he still uses a gunpowder weapon like a revolver, and it looks like it's just an ordinary gun, not a legacy weapon or a relic, so it's very interesting that he can kill the wraith.

Holden used the Bible and the cross, and when Jimmy did not resist, he performed an exorcism ritual on him, if it is a normal person, the cross where the ritual is held will not feel any discomfort on his back, and some believers can even feel the divine power on the cross, and Jimmy immediately called out as soon as the cross was put up, indicating that there was an abnormal energy gathering in his body, and he was expelled directly from the possessed body due to the difference in strength when the cross blessed by faith came.

This anomalous energy is not necessarily the power of demons or evil spirits, it may just be other forces that are contrary to the beliefs of the Holy See, such as cultists, but whatever it is, the basic principle of exorcism is power suppression, using one force to expel another force from the body.

As time passed, where Jimmy couldn't see, Horton saw streaks of black smoke drifting out of Jimmy's head and escaping into the air.

It wasn't until there was no more black smoke that Horton motioned for his assistant in front to let go of Jimmy, and Jimmy fell to the ground unconscious.

Horton handed the cross to his assistant, and he took out his phone and called Lambert over.

When Lambert and Sam drove over, they saw this strange situation, with Horton and his assistant standing aside while Jimmy fell to the ground, curled up and unconscious.

When Lambert got out of the car, he ran up to Jimmy, crouched down and called him, "Jimmy! Jimmy!" Jimmy didn't move, his breath was still there, and Lambert stood up and looked at Horton, "What happened?" Why did Jimmy pass out?"

Horton didn't explain, "Don't worry, he's fine. Take him back and rest well, the problem of the River Red has been solved. You can arrange for someone to clean up the bottom of the river and burn what you dig up."

Lambert: "I just want to know why he's unconscious? What happened?"

Horton: "Just did an exorcism for him, he's touched something unclean, and he's disposed of it."

Lambert nodded, Sam came over with him and took Jimmy to the car, Sam drove Jimmy's car, several people returned to the helicopter, Horton and his assistant left in the helicopter, and Lambert and they drove directly out of Tata Town, went to the city to find a hospital, and did a check-up for Jimmy.

The results of the examination were very good, Jimmy was only unconscious, not life-threatening, all physiological indicators were normal, Lambert and they were relieved, Jimmy only woke up in the afternoon, and after the doctor confirmed, they left the hospital and returned to Tata Town.
