Chapter 1839 Dinner With The Demon Exorcists -Part 2
The rest of the Demon Exorcists gave a bout of bitter laughter knowing that Jin would bring out on that topic sooner or later. But before they could say anything else, Otters came out as a group to fill the entire table with food.
"Please eat, Instructor Yuan." A traditional sign of respect and courtesy from the Demon Exorcists, asking Grandma Yuan to be the first to eat. It was only when Yuan dug into her food, that the rest could finally partake.
That was when Lein had decided to open up on the topic of the mission they had in collaboration with the Vatican Exorcists. "Yes, we recently travelled to Italy as part of our overseas extermination missions which of course you would know that Big Sis Qiu Yue had given us the go ahead to explore the area."
"You mean given us the go ahead to travel out of the country to expand our experience and knowledge." Su Zhen interrupted as it was pretty obvious that Lein was gobbling the food as if he had not eaten in days, which in turn made him not speak properly. "I will do the explanation." She said as she repeated the first sentence that Lein had started.
"In Italy, we met up with one of the Astro Zodiac Major Clans, the Gemini Clan in Rome for a collaboration effort to fight against a particular group of demons that seem to have Eastern roots which the Western Exorcists in Gemini Clan wished for additional a.s.sistance in identifying their pattern of hunting."
"w.a.n.g Liang or just as most of us called it malevolent spirits, but this particular group of demons that we were hunting were seen carrying a graveyard tome behind their back and were p.r.o.ne to leave the people dead with their brains partially eaten. None of these matches the European Demons that they had known of and thus asked for our a.s.sistance to find and identify where the demon had eastern origins to it." Su Zhen explained.
"But these w.a.n.g Liang does not seem to be simple demon spirits. We managed to find one because our Ba Gua Compa.s.s was ringing like mad the moment we reached the airport. They had no idea that there was one hiding within Da Vinci International Airport Terminals." Rong added.
"Then did you all kill it?" Jin asked and they shook their heads.
"Mainly because our weapons are in the restricted cargo for obviously safety reasons when flying in the air so we were not equipped to fight it. Of course, we tried to use only our chi and skills to try to chase after it to kill it. Caused a commotion at the airport and their airport police nearly arrested us." Su Zhen said.
"Hah! You mean we nearly had a bullet in each of our heads before being arrested and locked up until the Gemini Clan representatives came to bail us out." Rong exclaimed.
"Gosh, that scene was insane with all the police coming after us and we were trying to kill it to have some proof of evidence that we are doing our job. The moment his graveyard tome stone dropped on the ground because of Rong"s Ox Demon Silhouette charging attack, the w.a.n.g Liang literally ripped open a dimension and we saw dozens of them hiding inside it." Lian chimed in with her opinions as well.
"We thought that he was trying to get more of them to come out and reinforce the area, but we were wrong. He escaped and closed the dimension tear by himself. Of course, we also tried to ensure that the dimension tear was sealed properly but the police…" Su Zhen sighed as it was the first time she had ever been cuffed up for doing something right.
"Then? Did you guys manage to find more of those w.a.n.g Liangs?" Jin asked and Su Zhen did not know whether to shake her head or not.
"The Gemini Clan offered their resources after realising that we were able to detect one. And needless to say, we were able to find another again near Rome"s Colosseum site." Su Zhen said.
"This time, we are equipped for the fight and there were Gemini Clan"s Demon Exorcists with us too. High ranking ones as well." Lein replied.
"Is there a Diego Li Puma in the ranks of those senior exorcists?" Grandma Yuan questioned and the group nodded their heads. "That old guy is still around, eh?"
"Instructor Yuan, you knew him?"
"I fought alongside him briefly in the World War. The Europeans had been given the green light to help China but it was just a token force when it came to Demon Exorcists. They had their fair share of fights to partake in as well. Anyways, continue with your story."
"Sir Diego was the one leading the team and since we told them that we saw quite a few other w.a.n.g Liangs hiding behind the dimension tear, their plan was to prolong that tear and extract those w.a.n.g Liangs out of those tears in order to eliminate them."
"He should be powerful enough to kill those w.a.n.g Liangs." Grandma Yuan said. "Unless his brain turned so senile that he is not able to cast his beloved light magic."
"No, Instructor Yuan. Sir Diego and his fellow teammates were amazing. It is just that, those w.a.n.g Liangs did not die from those light magic. Instead, they transform…or mutate." Su Zhen explained. "We did not know what was happening at that point in time since we were considered to be just armed scouts, tasked to search for the w.a.n.g Liangs compared to the firepower the Gemini Clan had brought out."
"Those w.a.n.g Liangs were no match for them but they turned into something more hideous," Lian said as she took out her phone and showed them. These demons looked exactly like men with Roman armour on them. The only difference was that the armour was grown onto them as tentacles were seen spreading out of those armour plates and it even had plates equipped too.
"Seeing how most Demon Exorcists were mostly Mages rather than Sword Magus, we had decided to enter the fight," Lein recalled.
