684 Awakening
There was nothing to see in front of him, and after waiting for a while, Superintendent Potter couldn't stand it first.
The actions of Jimmy and Father Bennett just now startled the three policemen, thinking that what was the situation, they all pulled out their matching guns, and they were nervous for a while, but they didn't see anything, but Jimmy still pulled out two revolvers that looked very strange, and they didn't dare to talk casually, and they didn't start talking until now: "Agent Yang, did you find anything?" ”
Jimmy stared at the lake and didn't look back: "It's a little uncomfortable, I always feel like someone is staring at me." ”
Superintendent Potter: "We don't see anything, do we need to disperse?" ”
Jimmy: "No, stay in the back and don't move. ”
Superintendent Potter frowned and looked at Jimmy, they were police officers, Jimmy was an FBI agent, and he was not in a direct management relationship, but Jimmy's wife was in a coma while they were working in their precinct, and he really didn't know what to do in this situation.
Father Bennett did not pay attention to their conversation, and after standing still for a while, he took out a small bottle of holy water from his pocket, crouched down and sprinkled it on the ground, and a faint smoke rose from the place where the holy water was poured on the ground.
Father Bennett stood up, "Jimmy, we need to get out of here for now. ”
Jimmy: "Did you find anything?" ”
Bennett: "The ground here is already stained, but I can't be sure where it is. ”
Jimmy: "Okay, you guys get out first, I'll be behind." ”
Bennett took two steps back and came to Superintendent Potter: "Let's go back first." ”
They turned around and just took a few steps, "Bang, bang, bang!" Three gunshots rang out, and several people immediately turned around and drew their guns at Jimmy's position, but Jimmy was no longer in place, he threw himself sideways, and then fired another shot into the air, "bang", and then slowly stood up.
Father Bennett had been on the alert just now, of course he saw a little more than Superintendent Potter, and when he turned around, he saw a light blue spirit rushing towards Jimmy's position, and Jimmy dodged to the side, followed by Jimmy's shot, which directly dispersed the light blue spirit, and disappeared into the air very quickly.
Bennett ran up to Jimmy, asking as he ran, "Where did it come from?" ”
Jimmy: "It's in the lake, but it's coming out from the right, not in front of us. ”
Bennett: "Show me." ”
Jimmy walked to the right, Bennett followed Jimmy, took out a small bag from his pocket, grabbed a handful of silver powder from it, stood near the place where Jimmy was pointing, and gently scattered the silver powder in the air, the powder did not fall to the ground for the first time, but slowly spread in the air, as if a wind was blowing them away, and soon covered a small area and landed on the surface of the lake.
Soon, the lake fluctuated violently, and a scream came, except for Jimmy and Bennett, Superintendent Potter and the other two policemen all reached out to cover one of their ears with painful expressions, and the guns in their hands were aimed at the lake and were reluctant to put down.
Father Bennett shouted the Lord's blessing to cast out evil, and at the same time held the Bible and raised the cross to the lake, while Jimmy had replaced the bullet casings from the magazine when he had just walked over, and was now aiming his gun at the lake with both hands.
Mental eye vision can not see the situation below the lake, but normal vision can already see the abnormality, the originally calm lake is now fluctuating violently, but I saw a small area in the middle of the color became much darker, and soon from that small area the water surface began to rise, a water mass rose out of the lake, and rushed towards Bennett.
Jimmy didn't wait and shot directly at the water balloon. When the water balloon left the water, he had activated his mind-eye vision, although the water balloon appeared to be an entity, but under the mind-eye vision, he could see that there were points of light around it, and these were Jimmy's goals.
The two revolves took turns firing, and he poured all the bullets onto the water balloon as fast as he could, released 1875 in his left hand, took out the spare six rounds from his pocket and loaded them into the right hand revolver, and once again cleared the magazine against the water balloon, which had been reduced by more than half.
This kind of water balloon flying on the surface of the lake, Superintendent Potter is also the first time they have seen it, at this time, they don't care about the kind of scream that makes their ears uncomfortable, they also raised the Glock in their hands to shoot at the water balloon, but the effect of their shooting is basically the same as useless, and their marksmanship has also been affected when they are interfered with, and basically no few shots hit the water balloon.
Father Bennett frowned, and the cross he was holding changed his grip, just like Father Horton Jimmy had seen in Dallas, poking at the water balloon like holding a long sword, and then immediately dodged, causing the rushing water balloon to pounce.
The water balloon did not land, but rushed over his head and went around a little and rushed over again, Father Bennett's melee ability Jimmy is clear, but it is not clear whether his body has fully recovered after being possessed, while Father Bennett was fighting with the water balloon melee slash and slash, Jimmy took off all the spare bullets from the holster, changed the bullets for all the two revolvers, and waited for the opportunity to shoot.
The water balloon was slashed from the bottom up by Father Bennett, and instead of being cut directly, it was thrown into the air, followed by a "boom", and the water balloon exploded, splashing water droplets, covering a large area of space, covering Jimmy and Superintendent Potter.
Father Bennett looked at the lake again vigilantly, the water balloon that exploded just now did not affect him, Jimmy saw the water droplets covering and falling, but he didn't see any energy reaction on it, it didn't matter, anyway, even if it was a little wet, it could be cleaned with holy water later, it was not a big problem.
The surface of the lake returned to calm, and the previous violent fluctuations seemed to have not occurred at all, and the only thing that was certain of the battle that had just occurred was that the water droplets on everyone's bodies and a piece of the ground near the lake were soaked by the lake.
After a while, Father Bennett put away the cross and came to Jimmy with his Bible: "Jimmy, let's go back." ”
Jimmy: "Done?" ”
Father Bennett shook his head, "No, it's just that it shouldn't be there for a while." ”
Jimmy nodded: "Then let's go back first, go back and discuss what to do here, but we have to solve the problem of Nia and their coma first." ”
Father Bennett nodded, and they turned to leave, when Superintendent Potter raised his voice, "Can anyone tell me what exactly it is?" WTF! ”
Fr. Bennett: "Don't be surprised, there's something wrong here, and I think some of your legends are true. ”
Superintendent Potter: "What? Are you sure? What's next? ”
Fr. Bennett: "Let's go back first, you three need to go to church with us, and I think you need to clean it too." ”
The three policemen looked at each other, but in the end they did not ask any more questions, and several of them drove back to the hospital, where Superintendent Potter intervened and asked the hospital to arrange for the three men to be taken to St. Mary's Church, but they had to wait for Father Bennett to arrange the affairs of the church.
In the afternoon, Father Rodney came to Newport with two other priests, he had gone to see Father White before, out of concern for Jimmy and coveting his child, Father White was very generous to ask Rodney to bring someone over to help solve Jimmy's problem, so after arranging for Bennett to come nearby, he also brought two people over.
Father Bennett had already contacted St. Mary's Church, and when Father Rodney arrived, Nia and two other detectives were being transported from the hospital, and at some times it has to be said that the combination of the police and the church was really powerful, and the hospital agreed to their request for the three comatose patients who had already been examined in the hospital.
St. Mary's Church, which has been temporarily controlled, tourists and people who come to pray in the church are temporarily asked to clear the venue, after which the three of Nia lay on a stretcher and placed in front of the altar, with Father Rodney as the main body, in addition to the two priests brought by Bennett and Father Rodney, the priests in the church also participated, and began a collective exorcism ritual around the three people.
This exorcism ritual Jimmy had experienced, previously led by Father White, and a circle of priests prayed together, triggering an infusion of Holy Light power to verify Jimmy's identity and ensure that he was not a heretic or demon-possessed person, and now, to dispel the anomalous energy that existed in the three of them.
Father Rodney is worthy of being a senior exorcist priest, under the ceremony he presided over, the effect is still very obvious, the first to wake up is Nia, she opened her eyes and saw that her surroundings were a church, she was surprised, turned her head to see Jimmy sitting on the bench, she called softly: "Jimmy." ”
Jimmy immediately looked up, and immediately stood up and walked over to Nia, "Nia, how are you?" ”
Nia: "I don't have the strength, what's going on?" ”
Jimmy: "The three of you passed out yesterday afternoon, and it's been a full day now. What's going on? ”
Nia: "Help me up." ”
Jimmy reached out and put his arm around Nia's shoulders and helped her sit up, and could feel that she really didn't have much strength, basically sitting up with Jimmy's strength.
Nia looked at the person next to her, "How are they?" ”
Jimmy: "Like you, you're still unconscious, except you're the first to wake up." Father Rodney did it for their help, and you should be thankful for them. ”
Nia looked at Father Rodney, who had already gotten up next to her, "Thank you, Father Rodney, thank you. ”
Jimmy: "What the hell is going on with you?" Why did you fall into a coma? Did you notice anything before you fell unconscious? ”
Nia: "Let me think about it, my head still hurts a little. ”
Jimmy walked up behind Nya and reached out to help her rub her head and near her temples, Nya waited for a moment and said, "After we got here, we contacted the police station, investigated the check-in records of some hotels based on the information of the three college students, and found the hotel where they lived.
At the front desk of the hotel, we got a message that the three of them had learned more about the legend of a local ghost lake before leaving the hotel, so we went to the ghost lake with the cooperation of the police officer, and we found the tent used by the three of them and their personal belongings by the lake.
Because they have been missing for more than two months, and many of their tents and contents have been damaged, so in order not to damage more, we first let the police officers bring back the equipment, and I and others continue to investigate by the lake.
But it didn't take long for us to hear some strange noises, and after looking around for a while, we suddenly had a cold feeling, and after that I didn't have any impressions. ”
Jimmy: "Did you find anything?" ”
Nia: "Well, I remember finding a necklace and a ring, not far from the three-person tent. Uh, where's my clothes? I wrapped it in a plastic bag and put it in my pocket. ”
Jimmy: "Your clothes are in the hospital, and after you fell unconscious, you were arranged by the police to go to the hospital for examination, and your clothes and equipment should still be in the hospital." I'll ask Superintendent Potter about it, it shouldn't be lost. ”
Nia: "Well, the necklace and ring are just the items we found, but they don't look like the three students, so they need to be tested to make sure." ”
Jimmy blinked, thought for a moment and looked at Superintendent Potter next to him, "Potter, can you arrange for someone to bring Nia's clothes and personal belongings?" I need to check it out. ”
Superintendent Potter nodded, beckoning the two officers who had come with him to walk out.
The three of them were also lucky, because they were stained with the droplets of the water balloon explosion, and Father Bennett also gave the three of them a simple purification ritual after Father Rodney performed a ritual for Nia and them, and also had them wash their exposed hands and faces with diluted holy water.
Originally, Superintendent Potter was not a believer, but the facts encountered today were too exciting, and they were indifferent to the church's exorcism ritual from the previous to a complete belief now, after completing the ritual and cleaning, they also chatted with the local priest for a while, promising to come to the church on the day off to sit, this is a potential believer.
Soon, the other two detectives also woke up, they were a little later than Nia, and the memories they kept were similar to Nia, or even slightly worse, Jimmy communicated with Father Rodney and probably judged that the ring should have protected Nia, but this ring was not an offensive exorcism weapon, it could only protect Nya to a certain extent, and in fact it was still broken.
Finally, Superintendent Potter returned to the church with a few bags, "This is Detective Yang's personal belongings, please check them." ”
Nia put down the glass of water in her hand and took out the evidence bag from her clothes pocket, "This is the necklace and ring we found. ”
Jimmy switched his eyes and looked, and he immediately shouted, "Father Rodney, please come here." ”
Father Rodney was not by their side, but was chatting with the local priests on the side, and when he heard Jimmy's words, he frowned and walked over, "Jimmy, what's wrong?" ”
Jimmy handed the clear evidence bag containing the necklace and ring to Rodney: "Father Rodney, look at this. ”
Rodney just received it, immediately shouted "OMG", and placed the evidence bag on the table next to him.
