American Exorcism Male God

"This is really costing a fortune!"

Xu Yi looked up at the sky; dawn was just breaking, with only the pale light of early morning showing, but New York's Central Square was already overcrowded.

Armed soldiers were coming and going, and a large number of exorcists were meditating with closed eyes.

Just yesterday evening, Entos had informed him that a major operation was imminent, but he hadn't expected it to come this quickly.

Around four in the morning, they suddenly received a notification from the government that the "Saint O'Hagan Operation" had officially commenced.

Xu Yi was holding a list, a part of the War God Repository records, which many exorcists were currently perusing.

The treasures in the War God Repository are divided into five levels, with level one being the highest and level five the lowest.

After all, these were the treasured collections of New York City Hall for many years; even a level-five artifact would be coveted by exorcists out there.

More and more exorcists gathered in the square, and Xu Yi guessed that exorcists from all over New York, even from neighboring cities, had sensed the opportunity and rushed here.

Because New York City Hall issued a message, "Any exorcist participating in the Saint O'Hagan Operation, after the mission's completion, will be allowed to select a level-five treasure from the War God Repository."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Participation meant a share! Who could resist such temptation?

If the government weren't truly desperate, it wouldn't have made such a decision.

Considering there were nearly a thousand exorcists, even New York City Hall, with all its wealth, couldn't avoid a significant financial hit.

Xu Yi could understand the government's position; New York was in a state of "boiling panic."

The sudden attacks by the Black Rats had led to an increasing number of Hot Soul patients, and the first batch of patients had begun dying in large numbers.

It was like a leaking house facing continuous rain at night; everywhere people were in a state of panic.

As the "culprit" himself, Xu Yi was not blamed by the government; on the contrary, he received a very formal expression of gratitude.

In addition to a substantial bounty, after the mission's completion, he would be allowed to pick an additional level-five treasure.

Everyone understands that it is better to channel than to block. Now, with the disaster having just erupted, the city government still had the capacity to respond.

If they were to wait until the disaster reached its peak, and the government collapsed in name and in fact, then a massive outbreak of Black Rats would swiftly lead to the city's fall.

"Lisa, make sure your hood is on properly, and Maria, put your coat on!"

Xu Yi, feeling the eyes of many upon them, whispered a warning.

Lisa and Maria were also here, not to claim more treasures but to join the operation.

"We're not just pretty faces; we're your comrades-in-arms who fight at your side!"

Xu Yi had initially intended to keep the two of them in the studio, but early this morning, Lisa showed up at his door with Maria blocking his way out.

Seeing their resolute eyes, Xu Yi understood that they were ready and, after hesitating for a moment, nodded in agreement.

He couldn't treat them as delicate flowers in a greenhouse just because he feared for their safety; they couldn't just hide away.

Lisa seemed delicate in temperament, but she was proud at heart.

She didn't want to stay behind Xu Yi, living in peace and tranquility; instead, she wanted to stand by his side in battle, facing the storms together.

Maria, on the other hand, would be willing to; her wish in life might be to make breakfast for Xu Yi, tend to the flowers, and occasionally ask Xu Yi to take her to the beach for a swim.

But deep in her soul, Ailan was a fighter, feeling restless without a fight each day.

Lisa obediently pulled her hood over her head, hiding her delicate little face behind it.

Maria also put on her coat, concealing her beautiful figure, and casually donned a hat.

"Very good!" Xu Yi looked at the two women, who were well covered up, and nodded in satisfaction, a sense of fulfillment surging within him.

Whether it was the entries or Lisa herself.

Lisa's facial features were becoming more exquisite, and coupled with her small face and the unique witch's attire, she would be irresistible to some with particular tastes.

As for Maria, there was even less need to say; her flawless appearance and slender figure, capped by her long and straight legs, spoke for themselves.

The most important thing was that she was wearing a black, tight-fitting combat suit today, which outlined her perfect figure, and Xu Yi, who had already reviewed her, was feeling a bit restless.

That's why they attracted so much attention. The love of beauty is common to all; standing in the square, people couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Maria's tight combat suit was at Ailan's request, not to highlight her figure, but to fight better.

When Ailan fought, she would use her physical prowess to the max, high kicks and back spin kicks were just the basics, and sometimes her body would even fold significantly.

In such cases, a pretty dress or non-elastic garments would severely restrict her movements.

That's why she needed this kind of specialized combat suit.

Xu Yi and Lisa, of course, had their combat suits as well, with Xu Yi wearing a modified bulletproof vest inside and a long coat outside.

The purpose of the long coat was mainly to conceal the Alchemy Revolver and the Annabelle doll at his waist.

Sometimes, under the cover of the long coat, both could become "hidden weapons".

Lisa's situation was similar to Xu Yi's: a bulletproof vest on the inside and a comparatively loose witch's attire on the outside, with large cloth pockets sewn into the fabric.

If Black Carp was unfortunately injured, she could put it into the cloth pocket and carry it with her.

The combat suits for the three of them were all designed according to their individual fighting styles.

It wasn't supposed to be possible to get the finished product so quickly, but after Xu Yi provided two Fire Gui portraits, the other party managed to compress two days' worth of work into one night, all without sacrificing quality.

"All exorcists, please proceed to your respective squads the operation is about to begin..."

The loudspeakers started to broadcast the message, Xu Yi stood up, took a deep breath, finally, it was starting!

"Remember not to charge too far forward, nor fall too far behind later on; staying in the middle is best, while also staying alert to all around you..."

Xu Yi was imparting the "Slacking Technique" to the other two while waiting for their squad leader.

The operation was conducted in squads, with about fifty people in each squad, a mix of exorcists and soldiers. Stay tuned for updates on empire

"This squad will be under my command, follow me!"

A tall figure clad in camouflage combat suit appeared before them, and Xu Yi, after seeing the person's face, was a bit surprised.

"Entos?"

The other person had been one of the overall commanders of the operation before, so why had he fallen to the point of leading such a small squad?

"Because of the incident down in the sewers the other day, I've been punished," Entos recognized Xu Yi and briefly explained.

Xu Yi nodded, having a rough idea of what had happened.

The armored vehicles started, and the squads headed towards their designated locations; it was perhaps a coincidence, but their squad's destination was the very sewer entrance where they had intercepted the rat plague that day.

"Dismount and check your weapons!" Entos ordered.

Everyone silently checked their weapons, and in addition to their own Exorcism Artifacts, the exorcists also carried firearms to deal with those black rats.

Xu Yi was still using his usual set-up, the Dagger of Rest at his left waist and the Alchemical Revolver Messiah at his right waist, all of which was possible thanks to Annabelle's Treasure Box.

Maria silently opened the long, rectangular box beside her and took out an alloy sword.

As she strapped the alloy sword behind her, her gaze suddenly sharpened, at this moment, Ailan took control of her body.

In such a dangerous battle setting, Ailan was naturally more suited.

Ailan had learned many fighting arts, combat sports, punch techniques, taekwondo... and then she found that what suited her best was actually swordsmanship.

This alloy sword was specially commissioned by Ailent, who had used his connections and spent a lot of money to have it made.

Lisa also had her "signature weapon," a pair of heavy steel knuckles, which took her further down the path of being a violent little loli.

Having finished checking their weapons, the group headed towards the sewer entrance.

Along the way, three more squads entered; the tasks for each might have minor differences, but they all shared the same entrance.

The mouse corpses at the entrance had been cleaned up, but the intense stench was still present, causing everybody to become tense unconsciously.
