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

The instant Li Yuan placed his right hand on Grace's forehead.

Li Yuan's entire demeanor underwent a dramatic transformation in an instant.

A sacred aura emanated from his brows!

Li Yuan spoke slowly and asked in a deep voice:

"Grace, are you willing to embrace the Holy Light and become my servant?"

Grace looked at Li Yuan, who seemed like a god himself, and was secretly alarmed.

After a moment, she slowly opened her mouth.

Although unable to utter a sound, it still silently conveyed:

"I do."

Although no sound was made

However, the power of holy light still received Grace's inner thoughts and instantly formed a contract.

[Ding! The other party is willing to become your servant. Conversion successful!]

[Servant Loyalty: 10/100 (Note: Even if a servant's loyalty drops to 0, the servant will not harm the host, but it will affect the experience gained by the servant from killing monsters!)]

[Note: The Holy Light and experience points gained by your servants when they slay evil creatures will be credited to your host!]

[Please select three abilities to bestow upon the other party!]

Looking at the extremely low loyalty rating, Li Yuan was slightly surprised.

However, considering her tragic past, one can somewhat understand her feelings at this moment.

After a moment's consideration, Li Yuan selected three skills for Grace: [Holy Light], [Spiritual Blessing], and [Aura of Devotion].

Grace's strength will be greatly enhanced after receiving the [Mental Blessing].

Although Grace's loyalty is not high,

But thanks to the system, Li Yuan wasn't afraid that she would turn against him.

The moment the skill selection was completed, the slightly white holy light around her suddenly receded and surged into Grace's brow!

Because Li Yuan and Grace are both in a soul state.

This was also the first time Li Yuan had seen what the power of holy light looked like in the servant's soul.

The holy light that had gradually entered Grace's brow began to roam wildly within her body.

It seems to be repairing the injuries in the other person's body.

Finally, it slowly transformed into a pair of holy light wings, floating behind Grace.

"Wow, that's so cool!"

As Li Yuan sighed softly...

In the real world,

A series of sizzling sounds and wisps of smoke rose from Grace's corpse.

Countless drops of dark black blood seeped from the pores of her skin.

Seeing that the ceremony had been completed, Li Yuan smiled and said to Grace:

"Then I'll return to the real world. Don't worry, I'll find a way to bring you back to life."

With that, Li Yuan waved to Grace and slowly closed his eyes.

The next second, when Li Yuan opened his eyes again, his soul had already returned to his body.

Li Yuan sniffed and muttered under his breath:

"What's that smell? It's so stinky."

He got up and turned on the lights in the dissection room.

Just as Li Yuan turned around, intending to put the chair and candle back into his system space,

They were shocked to discover the changes in Grace's body on the autopsy table.

At this moment, the ground beneath Grace was already covered in charred black blood.

It's sticky, almost like asphalt.

"What's going on?"

Li Yuan slowly approached Grace, covered his nose, and began to examine the corpse.

After a moment, combining the plot of the movie in his mind,

Li Yuan suddenly remembered that there were some sealing runes engraved under Grace's skin.

"Could it be because of those subcutaneous runes?"

Grace suffered not only various forms of inhumane abuse during her lifetime,

After its death, its skin was peeled off and a sealing spell was carved on it.

This spell prevented Grace's soul from dissipating, trapping her forever in this body.

Moreover, he could feel pain, but because his tongue had been cut off, he was unable to make a sound.

After Grace was burned as a sacrifice, she simply watched helplessly as her body rotted and decayed in the swamp.

Centuries later, someone accidentally unearthed her remains.

That's how she was able to see the light of day again.

However, those who unearthed Grace's body did not fare so well.

They were all killed by Grace, who was already somewhat insane, through mind control.

Using the souls of those people,

Grace then regained part of her body.

Just as Li Yuan was lost in thought,

A hand covered in black blood slowly rose and reached out to him.

The surgical gown draped over Grace slipped off into the black blood with a 'plop'.

Li Yuan was instantly awakened by the sound and quickly looked towards Grace.

Grace was staring intently at him.

His gray eyes were filled with joy.

Grace's bloodstained fingers slowly reached out to Li Yuan's hand.

On the back of his hand, he wrote several letters, stroke by stroke.

『I thak y°』

[Ding! The servant has developed a sense of affinity towards the host, loyalty +60!]

Li Yuan was taken aback when he heard the voice.

Staring at the shape of those letters, he asked in confusion:

"Is this... a way of thanking me?"

Grace forced a stiff smile and slowly nodded to Li Yuan.

Li Yuan smiled awkwardly and said in a relaxed tone:

"Thank you very much, but don't do it again next time."

He raised his hand, but ultimately refrained from wiping his hands and did not erase those letters.

Li Yuan sighed and asked Grace curiously:

"It looks like your bones have been repaired. Can you get up and walk now?"

Grace nodded again, then slowly sat up, gripping the edge of the dissection table with both hands.

Li Yuan gazed at Grace, who was covered in blood, and murmured softly:

"You... you could say you've been reborn from the ashes, right?"

In the time it took to say those words, Grace was already standing upright on the ground.

However, just as she was about to step towards Li Yuan...

Suddenly, his foot slipped, and he fell straight to the ground.

With quick reflexes, Li Yuan caught Grace and whispered:

"After all, you haven't walked on the road for hundreds of years, so you'll have to get used to it gradually."

Grace's hands felt somewhat cold to the touch, and it wasn't until Li Yuan got closer that he realized...

She still had no breath or heartbeat.

Grace nodded gratefully, pointing to the bloodstains on her body, as if she wanted to take a bath.

Li Yuan recalled the way he came and realized he hadn't seen a bathroom in the basement.

He then said to Grace:

"Let's go upstairs. The Tilden family's residence should have bathrooms."

As he spoke, Li Yuan took out his phone and called Sheriff Burke.

Burke, growing increasingly anxious, waited outside the house.

Suddenly receiving a call from Li Yuan, I breathed a sigh of relief.

A relieved smile appeared on his face:

"Mr. Li Yuan! Have you dealt with that evil corpse?"

"Um...I guess so."

Li Yuan casually replied to Burke, then asked:

"Burke, could you ask Mr. Tilden if he has a bathhouse here?"

"Okay, I'll give the phone to Tommy and have him talk to you."

As he spoke, Burke handed the phone to Tommy, who was standing next to him.

After Tommy took the phone, he asked in confusion:

"Mr. Li Yuan, is there anything I can do for you?"

"I've taken care of everything. You might need to tidy up the dissection room in a bit."

Tommy breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the news and said with a smile:

"It's alright, Mr. Li Yuan, Austin and I will get ready in a bit."

Li Yuan chuckled and hummed in agreement, then continued:

"Also, I'd like to take a shower here, is that convenient?"

"That's convenient! You're too kind!"

As he spoke, Tommy began to show Li Yuan the way:

"Take the elevator back to the first floor, there's a shower in the restroom there."

Li Yuan, holding the phone, looked up from the first floor.

He quickly spotted the restroom sign and smiled at Tommy, saying:

"Thank you, Tommy. I've found it. You can come in now."

He then hung up the phone and led the slow-moving Grace into the first-floor restroom.

However, Li Yuan did not notice that the blood on Grace's footprints was slowly gathering together.
