I traverse America, using holy light to quell American terror!

Lucia, clutching the phone she had borrowed from Marga, hurriedly slipped into a storage room.

She glanced at the people inside celebrating Olivia's birthday.

Gently close the door and tighten the lock.

Then, Lucia nervously dialed a number and made the call.

Beep—beep—beep

Lucia felt a growing irritation as she listened to the incessant ringing of the phone.

She instinctively pulled back the curtains and looked downstairs.

But to his surprise, he saw an Asian man holding a cell phone looking in his direction!

Lucia's gaze happened to meet that man's for a moment.

She was startled and quickly pulled her head back.

She was afraid the other person was a gang member looking for her.

Hearing the "no answer" message on the phone,

Lucia punched the wall in frustration and said bitterly:

"Damn it! Why isn't Salinas answering the phone?"

As he spoke, he dialed the number again.

Lucia, who was anxiously making a phone call, was unaware that...

Just the instant she peeked out, Li Yuan, with his heightened senses,

He had already noticed her gaze.

Li Yuan held his constantly ringing phone and smiled as he counted the floors.

"Finally found you. I wonder if you're in the cult's lair or at your sister's house."

Li Yuan was also unsure of the current timeframe.

But now that we've found the location, none of that matters anymore.

Li Yuan instructed Edward, who was standing beside him:

"Call those two in the car and have them stand guard downstairs. Remember, don't let any woman leave."

"it is good."

Edward nodded, then asked with some concern:

"Are you sure you're okay going up there by yourself?"

Li Yuan looked up at the old, dilapidated apartment building and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, there's no danger here."

If it were an evil god descending, Li Yuan might still have some worries.

But if they are just cult members, then there is nothing to be afraid of.

Just as Li Yuan stepped into the apartment elevator, Lucia also nervously walked out of her room.

She paced back and forth, her face filled with anxiety.

While Lucia was worried about Salinas,

There are also doubts about whether the Asian man was a gang member.

She could only console herself with these thoughts:

"That's too much of a coincidence. I don't recall any Asians in gangs."

Marga, sitting in the chair,

He kept a close eye on Lucia's every move.

A moment later, she beckoned to Lucia and asked softly:

"Girl, what's wrong?"

Upon hearing Marga's question, Lucia froze on the spot.

She turned to look at Marga, a forced smile on her face, and said:

"I...I'm fine, I just can't get in touch with my sister and I'm a little worried about her safety."

Marga looked at the flustered Lucia, a graceful smile curving her lips.

"Lucia, everyone born into this world has a unique mission."

Seeing the confusion in Lucia's eyes, Marga gently comforted her:

"Don't worry about your sister, she'll be fine."

Although I didn't quite understand Marga's words, her calm words seemed to have a magical quality.

It actually calmed the restlessness in Lucia's heart.

She slowly nodded to Marga and forced a smile:

"Ms. Marga, thank you for your comfort."

Just then, a slow knocking sound came from outside the door.

'Thump, thump, thump'

The knocking was neither hurried nor slow, yet it gave a strong and powerful feeling.

The group celebrating Olivia's birthday inside the house suddenly stopped.

He looked toward the doorway with a solemn expression.

Lucia, who had just relaxed, had her heart in her throat again!

She twisted her stiff neck, looked at Marga, and asked in a trembling voice:

"Is...is someone late?"

Marga, who had just been smiling, now had a gloomy expression.

She slowly shook her head and uttered a few words in a heavy tone:

"uninvited guest."

The moment Marga finished speaking, the already locked door suddenly clicked.

It was slowly opened by the person knocking on the door from outside!

Lucia trembled as she backed away step by step.

I accidentally knocked a wine glass off the table and dropped it on the floor.

The patterned glass slowly fell.

The contents of the container were poured out.

Finally, it made a crisp "crack" sound and shattered on the ground.

However, the sound of the cup shattering did not attract the attention of the people inside the room.

Because the door had already been pushed open.

The person who arrived was none other than Li Yuan.

He walked slowly into the house with a kind smile on his face.

Then, he clapped his hands and said with a light laugh:

"Oh dear, how could you not invite me to the birthday party? I love a lively atmosphere!"

Li Yuan's words made Lucia's heart sink again:

"Is he also a resident of this building?"

But the way the other people in the room looked at the man made Lucia's heart pound.

She saw a deep malice in the eyes of these old women.

At this moment, the woman who opened the door for Lucia first,

He immediately grabbed a sharp knife from the side and rushed towards the door like the wind.

At the same time, he shouted:

"Die! You filthy heretic!"

Before Lucia could even understand the meaning of those words, her heart leaped into her throat once again!

With a muffled thud, the woman who had rushed forward was sent flying back.

She crashed heavily to the ground, a gaping hole punched into her chest.

Bright red blood gushed out, instantly staining the carpet red.

[Ding! Eliminated an E-level cultist, gaining 3 Holy Light Points and 25 Experience Points!]

[Ding! One cult member eliminated, converted into 0.5 believers!]

Hearing the notification sound in his ear, Li Yuan picked up the summoned AA-12 shotgun and slowly walked into the living room.

He smiled and looked at everyone in the room, then said loudly:

"Does anyone else want to experience its power?"

Don't worry, there won't be any pain. I'll let her leave peacefully.

Upon seeing this, Lucia knelt down with a thud, raised her hands, and loudly begged for mercy:

"Don't kill me...don't kill the people here, I'll give you back the goods!"

This kind of behavior—killing without hesitation—

Lucia was convinced that Li Yuan was a gang member who had come to find the goods.

Looking at the gun in Li Yuan's hand, Lucia felt absolutely no desire to resist.

Li Yuan nodded, smiled, pointed the gun at Lucia, and said:

"We'll talk about the goods later."

Then, he looked at the two old women and Olivia who remained in the room:

"I must ask you one question: are you willing to abandon your faith in an evil god and return to the embrace of the Holy Light?"

Upon hearing this, Rosita's eyes widened in anger, and she shouted angrily:

"You arrogant brat, you think you've already won?"

As she spoke, she suddenly slashed her palm, about to begin chanting a spell.

"Bang--"

After a loud crash, Rosita's obese body slammed heavily to the ground, a bloody hole in her chest, just like the woman's.

[Ding! Eliminate E-level cultists...]

[Ding! ...Transformation...]

Li Yuan raised an eyebrow and said with a smile:

"I'm just going through the motions. Your casting speed is completely outdated."

Li Yuan then pointed the gun at Marga and asked softly:

"Any last words?"

Marga took a small sip of her drink and said:

"You don't actually think you've got this in the bag, do you?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the ceiling above her head began to crack instantly.

Immediately afterwards, a fat monster wearing a hood and covered in filth burst out of the wall with a roar!

With a thud, it landed heavily in front of Li Yuan!

Lucia, who was already stunned and speechless, widened her eyes in shock.

The monster was exactly the same as the one she had seen in her dream last night!
