I'm an antique shop owner, so it's reasonable for me to know some magic

Chapter 212 Theresa: You can talk

Thinking of this, Su Fan opened his spiritual sense and scanned again.

After multiple investigations, nothing unusual was found.

Su Fan retracted his spiritual sense, but released it again in less than a moment, observing the corners and dark places of the building from all angles again.

Still no problems were found this time.

[It looks like he ran away.]

If a demon of that strength were to suddenly attack, it could pose a threat to Su Fan himself.

But doing so would definitely trigger Mengtou's warning.

The previous repeated confirmation of whether the other party was hiding was just to prevent the devil from hiding in the dark and spying.

Su Fan walked to the door, looked at the unconscious man leaning against the door frame, and recognized his identity.

The family member infested by the Annabell doll is Mia's husband, John.

The reason for appearing here is probably to protect Father Andrew.

He trusted his wife and asked the priest to solve the problem. He was also grateful and wanted to protect the injured priest from the persecution of the devil.

He is much better than the blind male protagonist in other horror movies.

"How is he doing?"

"The soul has settled down, but the body is weak because of the mark planted by the devil before."

Theresa replied.

"Can it be removed?"

Su Fan raised his hand and prepared to draw the talisman.

"If it's difficult, let me do it."

"It's not difficult. I just used the holy water, salt, and prayers I brought with me to erase the mark."

Su Fan nodded upon hearing this.

After working together for several times, he also realized Theresa's abilities.

Except for her poor direct combat ability, this nun is considered a very powerful clergyman.

This is also the reason why he felt relieved to leave the others to Theresa.

After settling John, the two entered the ward.

Except for Andrew's bed in the middle, there were no extra beds in the entire ward.

This is obviously to provide them with a better recuperation environment.

But from the current perspective, the effect does not seem to be very good.

Just as Su Fan was considering whether to try to treat Father Andrew with talismans, the latter slowly opened his eyes.

Seeing Su Fan and Theresa standing in front of him, the old man's expression became much more peaceful.

"You are here..."

"Thank you for your hard work... You must have gone through a lot of dangers along the way..."

Andrew spoke intermittently, and had to pause and rest every few words.

Theresa couldn't bear to see Father Andrew working so hard, and couldn't help but want to pray, but was interrupted by him.

"Don't waste God's miracle on an old man, Theresa. You have more important things to do."

He looked at Su Fan with admiration in his eyes.

"I heard from Raphael that you are amazing. You defeated evil on your own without relying on God's power."

"A powerful and mysterious young exorcist. With your help, Theresa... will definitely be able to complete the mission given by the Vatican."

"But you must be careful. Demons are not only powerful, but they are also good at taking advantage of people's inner weaknesses and destroying their beliefs."

Having said this, Father Andrew took a few deep breaths, and his chest pumped like a bellows.

"You have met the devil before, and you are a clergyman in the church... Do you have any guesses about the devil's true identity?" In response to Su Fan's question, Andrew shook his head.

"There are countless demons with the same characteristics. I can't accurately guess its true name."

"Does every demon have a special liking for mothers and children? Or is this just a special hobby of this demon?"

The weeping woman Urona, Bassiba and now this demon, their targets are either single mothers or young women who are pregnant and giving birth.

None of them seemed to be deliberately directed at men.

“Mothers are closer to God than any other identity, because mothers who give birth to life share with God the joy of creating life.”

"Torturing a mother, or forcing a mother to kill her own child, is considered by demons and their followers to be a great blasphemy against God."

When Theresa saw that Father Andrew wanted to explain for Su Fan, she spoke up to explain on his behalf.

Soon she noticed the thoughtful look on Su Fan's face.

"Su, did you notice anything?"

"I have some idea. But I need more detailed information."

Su Fan said softly.

Perhaps, the three incidents he took on were actually caused by a devil behind the scenes.

Why does this association arise?

The demon's unusual behavior of retreating without a fight reminded him of Bassiba.

Before he was sure that he could defeat Sufan, Basshiba did nothing but take beatings and hide everywhere, with no intention of engaging Sufan head-on.

Rather than directly killing people, they prefer to use means to break through people's psychological defenses and make them collapse on their own.

The methods of persecution are also surprisingly consistent.

Perhaps the power of the two evil spirits came from the red devil who was previously eliminated.

"Father Andrew, do you remember clearly what happened on the night you were injured?"

Under Su Fan's questioning, the priest began to tell the strange things that happened after he took Annabell away from Mia's house.

The car stalled several times for unknown reasons and the road was empty.

The radio station I listened to was full of noise and the repetitive "May God have mercy on your soul."

Along the way, he could even see many hallucinations. In desperation, Andrew relied on constant prayer to overcome these dangers.

Finally, they arrived at the church safely without any danger.

But just as he picked up the doll and stepped onto the stairs, he suddenly felt the evil behind him.

When he turned around, he saw a woman with blood all over her abdomen and blood gushing out of her neck standing behind him.

"I realized at that moment that it was not an ordinary evil spirit. The church door was right in front of me, so I rushed in holding the doll."

"But just before I stepped into it, I was pulled out by a huge force and fell on the road..."

The narration ended here, and Sufan and Theresa knew that the priest lost consciousness after that.

"I can feel that the devil desires souls. Rather than taking the souls he has taken with his own hands, he wants the souls that people prostrate themselves on the ground and offer voluntarily."

"I don't know if this will help you."

"I can't say it's a lot, but it's almost the same as nothing."

Theresa was stunned when she heard this, looked at Su Fan, her lips moving, as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself.

You can talk.

After hearing Su Fan's answer, Father Andrew was speechless.

"From now on, just rest here and recuperate. Leave the rest to us."

Su Fan's tone was normal, even a little casual.

"Theresa, it's not over yet, let's go."
