The black smoke exploded in the sky above, which also brought some shock waves, but Jimmy's eyes saw that the scope of the explosion was limited, and the energy escaping from the three priests was scattered in the air, forming a huge energy network, and the black smoke escaped in the energy and disappeared completely.

Jimmy could only see the different colors of this energy, and was not sure what these energies were, of course, based on Father Rodney's identity, it could be simply guessed as the power of the Light.

It is not inconceivable that these exorcism priests can ask for divine power, after all, there are so many supernatural events in this world, and it is normal to teach them to have a full-time exorcism priest, and it is normal to have a corresponding treatment plan.

Father Rodney and the others did not stop praying directly, Father Bennett in the middle was already still in place, and after continuing to recite a prayer, Father Rodney and the others withdrew the badge and cross in their hands, and helped Father Bennett to gently put him on the ground.

After only being possessed for a while, Father Bennett has lost too much weight, except that he doesn't look like he has much flesh on his face, he is emaciated as if he is malnourished and hasn't eaten for a long time, and his body and limbs have also consumed a lot of fat and muscle, although it has not yet reached the level of skin and bones, it is not too much, you must know that Father Bennett was a strong exorcist priest before, he was not thin.

It seems that after being possessed, he immediately fought with the priest and Jimmy, and he had no access to energy at all, so he could only consume his host. This also explains that most of the people who are possessed are somewhat abnormal.

Fortunately, Father Rodney checked on Bennett, and he was still alive, but he was in a coma.

Jimmy turned his head to look at the priest with a broken arm, he was standing with his arm in his hands, and there was a lot of blood, but he had just done emergency treatment, tying it from the position of his big arm, and he stopped the blood from continuing to lose a lot of blood, and the bone branch could already be seen from the broken arm, and it seemed that it was very completely broken.

Now that Father Bennett had been saved, the evil spirit had been banished, and the priest's tense nerves had relaxed, a painful and distorted expression appeared on his face, accompanied by a wail, which woke up the priests who were checking on Bennett, who immediately ran to the injured priest to examine him again.

The priest was so badly injured, which also made Jimmy find a very big problem, he had resisted Father Bennett several times just now, and even punched him, but he was not so seriously injured, and he could even shoot normally, which is difficult to explain, do you want to say to them that Father Bennett released water on him?

Father Rodney got up: "We'll go to the hospital right away, Jimmy, I'll leave it to you." ”

Jimmy: "No problem, I'll be watching here, you bring Tony, the demolitionist, with you, he fainted in the first place." ”

Rodney: "No problem, let's go right away." ”

Father Rodney held Bennett, the other two priests helped the injured priest, Jimmy held Tony and put them in two cars, Father Rodney and they drove directly to the hospital, as for how to explain, let them deal with it.

Jimmy stood on the scene and watched them leave, looking around to make sure there was no one else around at the moment, before starting to organize his things.

Jimmy's clothes are already in tatters, Father Bennett doesn't use his fists all the time, and there are many offensive moves that turn fists into claws, Jimmy's clothes are torn very badly, but there is no need to change them for the time being, he just tidied up the things on his body, and then began to clean up the bullet casings that fell on the ground and the weapons of the priests.

The priests didn't clean up when they sent people away, the scene was a mess, and Jimmy had to make sure to clean up the bullet casings and the like he saw, otherwise the scene would be too terrifying.

While he was cleaning up, Jimmy's phone rang, he took it out and looked at it, and picked it up, "Mark, what's wrong?" ”

Mark: "Yang, when will you get back from your side of the matter?" ”

Jimmy: "It might take a little while. ”

Mark: "We've got some news about the robbers. ”

Jimmy listened to Mark and didn't say any more, and estimated that the news might not be appropriate to say on the phone: "Something? If you can wait, just wait for me to go back, if not, just deal with Ma Hong directly, and listen to his arrangement. ”

Mark: "Okay. That's it. ”

Jimmy: "Wait, how is Julia now?" ”

Mark: "I'm out of danger and I'm still in the ICU for observation and recuperation. ”

Jimmy: "OK, call me about something?" ”

Luckily, Mark's phone was a few minutes late, and if it rang during the battle just now, it might really affect their fight.

After clearing the ground, Jimmy went back to the car and sat down, lit a cigarette and reviewed the battle. This is the first time Jimmy has seen Father Rodney use their methods to exorcise demons, especially the trick that imprisoned him and Father Bennett in the end, a small formation of three priests actually imprisoned them both together, which is a bit too strong, why didn't they use this trick before?

Jimmy thought about it, and it was estimated that it was because Father Bennett had been fighting them before, and judging from the previous battle process, on the premise of avoiding seriously injuring Bennett, the four of them could only fight with the possessed Father Bennett, which was not enough to completely suppress, so they didn't have time to release this imprisoning ability.

Another reason is estimated to be that if this imprisoning ability is released alone, the ability is insufficient, and if other people need to go with it, the people who fight against Bennett will definitely be unlucky, and they will not have enough time to prepare.

There is also a question, why is he imprisoned? Judging by the prayers they shouted, they imprisoned the evil, how could they have imprisoned themselves together? Didn't Father Houghton's previous exorcism ritual on himself in Dallas completely cleanse the body of other souls?

In fact, since that exorcism ceremony, Jimmy has been able to completely control himself, and when shooting suspects, there are few criticized ways to kill such as direct headshots, and he once thought that the original Jimmy had completely disappeared, didn't he clean it up?

However, this time it was also very rewarding, and after a few minutes of fighting with Father Bennett, Jimmy could be sure that his hand-to-hand combat skills must have improved a lot. Bennett's melee combat ability is very strong, especially not caring about defense, he has been attacking Jimmy, in which case Jimmy can basically dodge and block almost all dangerous moves, which was completely unthinkable before.

And Jimmy's resistance to blows has also improved, in the position where he was hit by Bennett a few times, now only some bruises can be seen, and there is no situation where another priest was directly hit to the fracture and penetrated the skin, if Bennett didn't release the water, Jimmy's body did strengthen, but I don't know why this happened.

The increase in mental power can be explained, and that black crystal is obviously the key to the growth of his mental power and the improvement of his mental and eye abilities, and the enhancement of his physical body is very strange, and he doesn't seem to have any special adventures.

After waiting for several hours, Father Rodney drove back with Tony, and the other four priests did not return with them.

Jimmy greeted him, "Father Rodney, how are they?" ”

Rodney squeezed a small smile on his face: "Bennett is still alive, but he needs a long, long time to recuperate." ”

Jimmy: "OK, what's next?" ”

Fr. Rodney: "I'm here to tell you that you can go back to New York first, and I'll let the local church take care of it, don't worry." I'll be in touch with you when I get back to New York. ”

Jimmy nodded, and he looked at Tony, who was silent next to him, "Tony, how are you?" Any questions? ”

Tony shook his head and didn't speak, Jimmy frowned and looked at Rodney, who continued to nod and said, "He just passed out, nothing else." ”

After saying that, Father Rodney turned his head to look at Tony: "Thank you, Tony, I will ask the archdiocese to call you when I return to New York for this reward." ”

Tony nodded, he didn't look very good in his spirits, but at least he couldn't see anything else.

Jimmy: "Tony, can you still drive?" Let's spend the night here today. ”

Tony glanced up at Father Rodney, who nodded, "It's better to rest for the night and then go back, relax." ”

Tony nodded, Jimmy asked Tony to go back to church first, and when Tony left, Jimmy asked: "Father Rodney, the evil spirit has been expelled, what should I do here?" That basement. ”

Rodney: "We need to have someone clean it up, and the basement needs to be checked again to see if there's anything missing and make sure there's nothing wrong." ”

Jimmy: "Does this evil spirit have a name?" Did you have any information about this evil spirit in your previous investigations? ”

Rodney shook his head: "No, they just call him master, and they don't have a specific name, so be it, there shouldn't be any problems here and there." ”

Jimmy: "Okay. ”

Jimmy got into the car and left, and Rodney looked at Jimmy with a frown.

Jimmy was still very worried, the evil spirit shouted out made him understand a little, this evil spirit should be from the same world as Roland, or even if it is not the same world, it also has an intersection with Roland and their gunslingers, according to what Roland said to Jimmy before, he is from the world of the Dark Tower, so this evil spirit should also come from there or another world similar to Earth.

It said that it hadn't heard of the Gunslinger for decades, and Roland also said that he was the last Gunslinger, so in comparison, it is almost certain that Roland has not appeared in the Dark Tower World since he eliminated the man in black and came to Earth, and it is the same as Roland's description, he and Jack have basically eliminated monsters and doors in various places in the United States over the years.

Jimmy just asked Father Rodney what they were going to do next, in fact, there was another reason, since he deduced that this evil spirit might be from the Dark Tower world, then there would be a door or rift here that he passed through, of course, the most likely is the door, after all, the name of that religion is the Gate of Chaos, it must make sense for them to give such a name, maybe their pope or early founder has seen that door.

Jimmy had already seen the basement, and there was nothing that looked like a door other than the statue and the altar, could it be that the door was hidden under the statue or altar?

It's a pity that Jimmy can't reveal these things directly, and he can't participate in the follow-up statue cleanup, there's no reason.

Back at the church, Jimmy took out food and water and gave Tony a little bit, today Tony can only rest here for one night, he is still relatively impacted, but it cannot be ruled out that the evil spirit has other means to possess Tony, Father Rodney let him rest here It is estimated that he has saved such a little bit of caution, I hope to stay together more today and can confirm this as soon as possible.

Father Rodney, Jimmy, and Tony all rest in the church at night, and Jimmy wakes up twice in the middle of the night to observe Father Rodney and Tony, and make sure they are okay before continuing to sleep.

After buying two clothes to change into, Jimmy and Tony returned to New York, and Father Rodney was going to stay and continue to deal with it, which was probably not a matter of a day or two.

When she was resting at night, Nia found the bruises on Jimmy's body, and when asked, Jimmy didn't tell him, but roughly said that it was lucky that he wasn't injured anyway.

Back in the office, Mark finally said that they had gotten the message: "Several gunmen in the robbery, three of whom we have identified, are all from a mercenary organization that has been active in the Middle East before. ”

Jimmy: "Have you found their mastermind?" ”

Mark: "No, but the source from Mahon said that there were twenty or thirty mercenaries in the group, and now we only find the number of people in one of their groups, and we can't be sure if they will come to New York to avenge these people." ”

Jimmy: "What did Mahone say?" ”

Mark: "Let's be vigilant, but don't worry too much, he'll continue to get someone to confirm the news." ”

Jimmy nodded: "Then leave this matter to Mahone, remember to remind Julia when you go to see her, even in the hospital room, let her make sure her gun is nearby." ”

Mark: "I understand. ”

Julia and the others can only protect themselves, without a clear threat, Jimmy can't mobilize other agents to protect Julia and Jones, the news of their presence in the hospital can't be stopped, as long as someone inquires carefully, they will definitely be found.

Now one can only hope that the gunmen's companions will not run over to avenge their dead colleagues.

But Jimmy is not particularly worried, because mercenaries are different from other gangster organizations or killer organizations, mercenaries are ruthless characters who lick blood from the knife edge, and they all sell their lives for money, and sneak into the United States to attack FBI agents for such a few people without profit, which is really a bit too abstract, not like what people in their industry would do.
