Chen Zhao and David stayed at home, waiting for Sienna"s return . Half an hour later, Sienna and Chris came back .

However, Sienna seemed somewhat clumsy . Her face was very dirty and her clothes looked as if she had been rolling on the ground . Chen Zhao had no idea what she had just experienced .

“Sienna, what happened?”

“Sigh, it"s that old dormitory in UCLA . It"s occupied by a small group of evil spirits which I can"t settle . Chen, I"ve helped you so many times . Shouldn"t you help me once too?”

“How many times have you helped me again?”

“That"s not important . Shouldn"t friends help each other?”

Chen Zhao thought over Sienna"s suggestion . Even without their friends.h.i.+p, Chen Zhao would still obtain angelic crystals by killing evil spirits .

“After we get Ken out of the police station, I"ll go to the place you just said . ”

Hearing Chen Zhao"s promise, Sienna"s face filled with delight . “Let"s do it quick then . The pay for that job is quite high . What"s the current situation here?”

“We found out that there"s a witch-like existence in town . ” David repeated Bant"s words .

“Not witch-like . That old woman is definitely a witch,” Sienna said firmly after hearing David"s description . “Also, I suspect that she"s already dead . ”

“What? She"s dead?”

“That old woman should be a toxicologist . Her body"s long dead, but she used Soul Binding to bind her soul within her body, turning herself into a ghoul . She must feed on living things" blood in order to maintain her bodily functions and not rot…” Sienna seemed to be very serious . “Chen, that old witch"s surely stronger than me . Can you defeat her?”

“I"m not sure either . If she"s purely an evil spirit, I"m most certain that I can, but I have no idea how to deal with someone whom we don"t even know is dead or alive . Is there anything special with a toxicologist? I mean, something that I need to look out for?”

“She"s now just a ghoul . Even without sorcery, she"s more dangerous than the most ferocious beast on land in terms of close combat . Guns are ineffective against her . Secondly, her soul has already turned into an evil spirit . ”

“You said that witches can become very dangerous if they turn into evil spirits, right?” David recalled Sienna"s words in the past .

On their third night protecting Aisha, Sienna had said that should a witch turn into an evil spirit, she would become exceptionally powerful . Even she would not be able to defeat the spirit .

“Correct,” Sienna nodded . “Moreover, toxicologists are adept at using magic poisons and curses, therefore making them more threatening than the other cla.s.ses . All in all, this old witch"s already become the most deadly monster . ”

Hearing Sienna"s words, David could not help but swallow his saliva and look at Chen Zhao .

“Actually, I have something that can cause ma.s.sive damage to evil spirits or even kill them directly,” Chen Zhao said . “But I"m not sure if it works on a ghoul . ”

“What is it?”

Chen Zhao took out some angelic crystals from his spatial ring and put them on the table .

Everyone stared at the white crystals of various sizes before them and then looked at Chen Zhao, puzzled . “What are these?”

“That"s not important . Anyway, they"re very deadly against demons and evil spirits . ”

Sienna took out a piece of angelic crystal . “It"s filled with a sacred scent… I know what to do!”

“What?”

“I"ll do it, but I need some time . ”

“How long?”

“Maybe one or two days . The main problem is difficulty finding the materials I need . ”

“What do you need? Perhaps I have them,” Chen Zhao said .

“No . I promised you that I"ll help you . Anyway, just leave this to me,” Sienna interrupted Chen Zhao"s speech .

“Also, most importantly, even though we know that the old witch is the real culprit, how do we help Ken to clear his name?” Chen Zhao added .

“If we tell the police that Deppler was killed by an old woman who"s over a hundred years old, we"ll probably be arrested first, right?” Chris commented .

“Not if we can obtain some key evidence,” David said . “Chen, did you say that the winery"s owner, Trede Pemton, is involved in all this?”

“It"s merely my suspicion for now . Can"t confirm it yet . ” While Chen Zhao really suspected Trede, he had no solid evidence to prove his guess yet .

“Then we"ll let them expose themselves,” David suggested .

“How?”

“Let them know that I"m investigating them, and then show up in front of them . Perhaps they"ll take me as a sacrificial offering in order to conceal the truth . ”

Frowning, Chen Zhao shook his head and rejected, “It"s too risky . Let me be the bait . ”

“Chen, don"t forget that I"ve taken your potion . I"m at least twice as strong as a normal person now . ”

“Can you survive a bullet?”

“Err… No . ”

“So it doesn"t matter how strong you are . ”

Just then, Fali came home . The conversation came to an abrupt stop .

Fali scanned everyone in the living room . “Is there something going on that you"re not telling me?”

“No,” said everyone in unison .

“So you are hiding something from me,” Fali confirmed .

“It"s useless for you to know it . There"s an old monster in town, so Fali, starting from tomorrow, Walter will be with you . Chris, you"ll have Carrie . David, you"ll be frequently on the roads, so Beelzebub will follow you . Sienna, bring Raymond with you,” Chen Zhao said .

They were overjoyed to be able to get a pet each .

In the mirror ward last time, they saw for themselves how terrifyingly powerful these pets were .

“David, Sienna, don"t count on Beelzebub and Raymond . Under normal circ.u.mstances, they"re just trash . ”

Woof, woof!

Beelzebub barked to display his dissatisfaction . Chen Zhao rolled his eyes at Beelzebub for his reaction .

“But they"re more sensitive towards danger . If they realize there"s imminent danger, turn around and run . Do not hesitate . ” Chen Zhao kicked Beelzebub . “When this is over, I"ll reward you . If you ruin it, I"ll fry you alive . ”

Hearing Sienna" description, Chen Zhao had already realized that the current situation was entirely different from the last few times .

The first time, although there were a lot of horrifying enemies, Blackie was with him .

Blackie was truly an evil spirit buster, after all . It did not even matter how many evil spirits there were .

The second time was in the Reflection Demon"s ward . While the Reflection Demon was indeed strong, Beelzebub and Raymond could also use some of their real powers . Moreover, Chen Zhao"s Gluttony Bloodline was activated and he devoured the Reflection Demon"s projection directly .

This time, however, Beelzebub and Raymond were of little use . Carrie was suppressed and would also not be able to unleash her full power . Walter was even worse, being only able to use brute force . The team was at a severe disadvantage against a ghoul .

Therefore, in the end, Chen Zhao could only hope that angelic crystals would be effective .

Otherwise, Chen Zhao could only take out all his demonic ritual implements and summon a demon army .

Nonetheless, he still wished that the situation would not be that bad .

A demon army would look really stylish, but he would become broke afterwards .
