Chapter 1625: Explosion and Wrapping Things Up
After swallowing Goathead, the giant’s body suddenly collapsed and turned into an enormous, black, squirming sphere.
A goat’s face pressed against the surface of the sphere from the inside as it frantically tried to charge out and escape.
But it was all for naught.
The goat’s face started to appear less frequently, and finally stopped moving less than a minute later.
System: Kill the evil spirit of h.e.l.l, Guanas. Mission accomplished.
Total experience: 100,000. Total credit: 100,000.
Contribution rate: 100%. EXP +100,000. Credit +100,000.
Luke’s attention wasn’t on that. Instead, he manipulated the black sphere.
It turned into a streak of black light and flew through the air at an unimaginable speed toward a small building.
This place was a short distance away from the town. The ordinary people here were completely separate from the town not far away.
The black sphere pa.s.sed through a bedroom wall on the second floor without making a sound.
It swallowed the little girl who was lying on the bed.
There was no time for Sharon to react. By the time she screamed inside the black sphere, the sound could no longer escape.
She had even worse resistance than Goathead. She was completely worn down by the evil thoughts in the black sphere in less than ten seconds.
System: Destroy Alessa’s third doppelganger. Mission accomplished.
Luke sighed. Sure enough, Alessa had more than three doppelgangers.
The black sphere directly turned incorporeal and sank into the floor. After finis.h.i.+ng a search of this small town in less than a minute, it floated up again.
After a brief silence, Luke no longer hung around.
The black sphere wrapped him up and instantly broke out of this world to appear in the real world.
Time in the strange town was clearly different from the outside world.
The battle inside had lasted for only 20 minutes after Luke entered the second time, but three hours had pa.s.sed outside and it was already dark.
Looking at the credit points in the system that had suddenly started to drop rapidly, he was stunned. System, don’t tell me that this “temporary” control also means a “temporary price appreciation”?
The system didn’t respond.
Luke wasn’t in a hurry to release the black sphere, but had it fly and sink into the ground again.

Ten seconds later, he released the temporary control.
The black strands that formed the black sphere quickly disintegrated and turned to dust.
In less than ten seconds, the enormous black sphere disappeared with the wind.
After Luke brought the black sphere into the real world, he lost more than 10,000 credit points.
In other words, maintaining this bundle of evil thoughts in the real world cost 50,000 to 60,000 credit points a minute.
However, this bundle of evil thoughts was very practical and powerful. If used properly, it could end a battle in less than ten seconds.
It could actually be used as a trump card.
But without obtaining the power of evil spirits or demons, Luke couldn’t use Goathead’s demonic magic, so he naturally couldn’t summon so many evil thoughts to complete the spell.
Now, he could only file this away as one of many possible research plans, until he found an opportunity one day.
…
At that moment, his main body had already arrived in town and met up with Claire, but he didn’t leave for the time being.
He waited until the end of the second battle in the strange town, with the Level 2 clone coming out unscathed, before he summoned Claire and Stacy and had them return with him.
His clone hovered silently above Silent Hill in the real world, and it scanned the place with a drone to ensure that there was no one here.
After waiting for dozens of minutes, there was a slight tremor in the town’s church.
The tremors got bigger and bigger until finally, with a loud bang, the entire church was lifted into the sky and turned into countless pieces.
A huge shock wave spread out from the church and instantly destroyed half the town.
System: Hurt Alessa’s main form (half-demon fragment). Mission accomplished.
Looking at the church that had already been turned to dust and half the town that had collapsed, Luke took a deep breath and dropped closer to the ground.
The unknown mental energy field had disappeared.
He didn’t leave immediately, but flew through the town one more time to ensure that the unknown energy field hadn’t left any traps behind.
As Luke searched the town, he pondered. Sure enough, it wasn’t Alessa’s doppelgangers that were important – she was the heart of that strange world.
The monsters that Luke had killed with faith value and credit points, as well as Alessa’s doppelgangers, only reduced her strength, and couldn’t injure her seriously.
The appearance of Goathead, however, pretty much confirmed how she had come about.
Perhaps Goathead had used her because she was gifted.
Or, she could have been a medium by which evil spirits entered the human world, or she could have been Goathead’s partner.
Either way, Luke didn’t have to show her any mercy.
Also, as a half-demon fragment, she was much more troublesome than Goathead. It would’ve been hard to find her and kill her.
It was impossible for Luke to blow up this town in real life.
The explosion just now had been caused by the timed bombs he had released in the strange town earlier.
It was clear that Alessa couldn’t suppress the explosion. Her real body was heavily injured, and part of the aftershock from the strange town leaked into the real world.
It would be impossible for this town to “eat” more people any time soon.
Without the mental energy field, it would be very hard for Alessa to pull living people into her world like before.
It was like how Freddy had to wait for someone to fall asleep before he could influence the victims in their dreams.
It wasn’t good to breathe in the air here for too long, much less sleep in this place; few idiots would choose to camp here.
Hence, n.o.body would come knocking on Alessa’s door.
The problem with this town had basically been resolved. Luke could check it out again every eight to ten years.
His Level 2 clone remained invisible in the night sky as it floated toward the town where everyone was staying.
Cybil was the deputy sheriff here, and Luke needed to tie up this loose end.
Of course, that didn’t mean he was going to kill Cybil. At most, he would just have her switch jobs.
Things went according to plan.
Cybil wasn’t especially keen on being a police officer, and wasn’t opposed at all to leaving this tiny place and finding work elsewhere.
That was what many people were like in modern society.
Few people were reluctant to leave their hometown for better job prospects.
Cybil would be Stacy’s PA in the future, and would also be in charge of some security matters.
For example, when Stacy and Claire were together, she had to stand guard.
The work usually wasn’t busy and the pay wasn’t bad, so Cybil was pretty happy.
Luke didn’t have to plant a suggestion.
Most people would be happy to be paid more for doing less work.
After confirming that Cybil would resign in the next few days and then head for New York, Luke’s clone quietly returned.
These unexpected gains weren’t small.
Luke needed some time to sort them out.
Goathead with its chicken wings gave Luke the most pitiful gain – only the 100,000 experience and credit points it was worth was impressive.
Goathead had probably used Alessa to kill a lot of people in this strange town, or it wouldn’t be worth so many points.
