Exorcism in Los Angeles? Just talk it out!

"Father, do you really not have a relative named John Constantine?"

This world is an alternate world, and although it is very similar to the world Li Ang lived in, there are real evil spirits here.

Because of his fear, there was no famous movie about Satan lighting a cigarette. So Stephen Constantine didn't know what Leon was talking about and just assumed that he was like other exorcists who had developed some quirks from years of exorcisms.

"Are you really not going to consider it?"

Stephen Constantine even produced his identification, saying, "After joining the official organization, I can get FBI status. No matter what I do in the future, I'll have a protective shield. Isn't that great?"

To facilitate their operations, the official exorcists are given an FBI identity. This department is like a dumping ground; anyone hiding their identity is basically thrown into it.

Stephen Constantine's strong desire to invite Leon to become Los Angeles's second official exorcist was also driven by ulterior motives; it would give him more opportunities to rest...

"Ahem, I'm just a lazy person, sorry." Li Ang coughed and refused without hesitation. He could make money as a small-time investor, so why work for a big company?

While it's good to have a powerful backer, a job within the system isn't always easy to come by.

"We are not as restricted as you imagine. Think about it again. For example, this cross, this holy water."

Stephen Constantine pointed to the cross and the holy water channel, "These exorcist artifacts can only be purchased by joining the organization; they are almost never sold to outsiders. There are also other artifacts..."

He opened his phone, clicked on a website, and began to tempt Li Ang.

"Look, take this flintlock pistol for example. It has a 100% accuracy rate. Although it can only fire one shot at a time, it can ignore space and distance. As long as you see the enemy, you can hit them..."

"There's also this door; as long as it opens precisely at midnight, you can go anywhere within 2000 kilometers..."

"And this, you can become invisible when you wear it..."

There are such good things?

Why had he never heard of it in Chinatown? Although they were just an ordinary exorcist circle, if such a wonderful thing truly existed, the Abstinence Master next door, Master Lin, should have heard of it too…

Li Ang leaned over and took a few glances. After just a few glances and a little thought, he roughly understood.

These things are definitely not products of technology.

"Doraemon doesn't exist in this world. These gadgets... if I'm not mistaken, their ability to generate this kind of rule is probably related to evil spirits."

"You guessed right."

Stephen Constantine looked at Li Ang with admiration. He could see the problem at a glance. No wonder he admired the exorcist.

"These tools are all made from evil spirits. Although they are convenient to use, they are tainted with the power of evil spirits. With each use, the body will become more and more evil-spirited..."

"If this goes on for too long, it will enter the second stage..."

"What second stage?" Li Ang vaguely felt that the priest was opening a Pandora's box for him, but he couldn't help but want to know.

Stephen Constantine paused for a moment, then answered irrelevantly, "You should have guessed the rules of the Death Bus by now. It's a bus specifically for evil spirits; only evil spirits will refrain from attacking on it."

"Then guess how I managed to escape unscathed in the car..."

Li Ang paused for a moment, his mind filled with images of several exorcist families in their Chinatown, the Taoist priest Lin next door, the abstinence master, and the rules of their Li family.

That means never keeping minor ghosts, or evil spirits.

Even if I could control and subdue them, I would never keep them at home.

"Could it be...?"

“That’s right.” Stephen Constantine nodded. “It’s like me. My body has been corrupted by evil spirits because I’ve been in contact with them for too long. So on the bus, whether it’s them or bus number 13, they all see me as an evil spirit.”

Li Ang was only surprised for a moment before calmly taking out a pack of cigarettes and offering one to the priest. "Keeping a little ghost around, this kind of thing is quite normal. Want one?"

Compared to the Ami, which has only been established for 200 years, the people of the East knew a thousand years ago that raising little ghosts was a heretical practice, and that long-term contact with little ghosts would diminish one's fortune, longevity, and health.

Of course, the terminology is different; here they call it an evil spirit.

Stephen Constantine: "..."

However, what impressed Li Ang was America's group of exorcists' scientific research, which was able to directly turn evil spirits into tools for use.

Yes, although this thing is known to shorten one's lifespan.

"You still haven't said what the third stage is... what about the fourth stage?"

Stephen Constantine took the cigarette from Leon, lit it, and inhaled as well. "The third stage is when you become 100% evil. Except for your thoughts, your body is no different from an evil spirit."

"As for the fourth stage, it doesn't exist yet, though it's possible it might..."

Stephen Constantine smiled. "Perhaps, Jesus is the fourth stage of existence..."

……

……

"This gun is nice, and this outfit is nice too... It would be great if it didn't have any side effects."

Li Ang, who had already returned home, was sitting on his bed, scrolling through his phone. He was logged into Father Stephen's account on his phone.

The website they logged into was the dark web of the FBI exorcists...

For convenience, the American government uniformly assigns an FBI identity to all exorcists who are willing to join the official force. However, they do not participate in any work other than dealing with evil spirits, and their salary and benefits are the same as those of regular FBI agents.

Furthermore, the rewards for each exorcism vary depending on the difficulty of the evil spirit.

The only difference between them and exorcists like Li Ang from Chinatown is that they can buy "tools" on the dark web.

Most of these strange objects were made by evil spirits.

For example, the trench coat that Li Ang is seeing now...

Seller: Jack9527

For Sale: One trench coat

Trench Coat: The Dark Knight

A piece of clothing that can only be worn during the day

All the bullets that get into this garment will be transported to another location.

Note: You must not wear it at night, otherwise it will devour your flesh and blood.

Required points: 1000, plus $10,000.

"Is this salted fish...?" Li Ang pursed his lips, he could roughly guess why it only cost ten thousand US dollars.

Because if you wear them for too long, your body will be corrupted by evil spirits. If you don't want to die, you have to wait a while and then get rid of those strange objects.

This is also why the FBI's exorcist dark web has become like a salted fish, with items listed for sale everywhere.

However, this score...

Only official members have it; it's a reward for completing a mission, and Li Ang can't buy it.

Li Ang kept refreshing the page, and suddenly, he saw something that could be redeemed without needing points...

"Hmm? This car looks pretty good..."
