The cult was wiped out overnight, and the townspeople were thrown into panic. A member of the cult who had intended to pray was met with a strong stench of decay. When he followed the smell to the prayer room, he found the floor littered with corpses. The corpses were dressed in the cult's clothes, but they had been rotting for a long time, and the entire enclosed space was filled with a nauseating stench.
No one knew what had happened, not even the sheriff; they could only attribute the tragedy to the work of a demon.
"According to you, that powerful NPC was just a medium." Lin Ye heard that three members of the supposedly doomed team had actually returned alive, and according to the rules, he was supposed to talk to them to obtain information.
Wei Kaiyang nodded: "In short, if it weren't for him, we would all be dead."
The other two nodded in agreement.
"Tch, he's just an NPC, isn't he?" Lin Ye scoffed. "You guys are still worried about him?"
Wei Kaiyang glanced at him. He had never liked this Lin Ye who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Although he was very strong, his methods were extremely cold-blooded. In his eyes, everyone was just a pawn.
Even if they are all wiped out this time, this guy will probably just say "trash".
He had no desire to communicate with Lin Ye, nor did the other two. Seeing this, Lin Ye stopped talking to them, got up and left. He had never thought much of these people. With his system, he could easily pass any dungeon.
The abyss was in chaos. Fang Zhiyi, wearing his tattered hospital gown, sat reclining on the tall throne as the newly appointed lustful demon strode in.
"Boss, the purge is almost over." Its gaze towards Fang Zhiyi was almost laced with malice. "As per your request, we released news of your death, and sure enough, many demons began to stir, but now they have all been destroyed."
Fang Zhiyi nodded.
"However, there are still many demons roaming the human world, and we have not yet found their whereabouts."
Fang Zhiyi frowned: "They really have no manners at all." He paused, "Go and gather all officers above the rank of lord for a training session."
"A training session?" Lust tilted his head in confusion, his big eyes blinking repeatedly.
At this moment, in a dilapidated house, a young man who had clearly become demonized pushed open the door and stepped out.
"Zhiyi, wait a little longer. Once I get back, the demon will stop bothering you..." His pupils had become two thin vertical slits.
After leaving home, Fang Linjie went to the cult, intending to coerce them into exorcising his younger brother. However, there, he witnessed a scene that chilled him to the bone: the cult members were not human.
Of course, he didn't escape, and the hooded leader of the order extended an invitation to him, saying that if he was willing to offer his soul to become an exorcist for the order, he would solve the problem that was troubling him.
Fang Linjie had no intention of refusing such conditions.
So he became an exorcist, and his job was simple: to deal with demons that opposed the Order.
Sometimes he finds it ironic that people don't realize that those who help them and those who harm them are the same kind of people.
These demons are nothing more than fighting for human possession.
Fang Linjie, having covered his face again, did not respond to the family's gratitude. Instead, he quickly disappeared into the woods with the demon's head in his hand.
He wanted to go back and see if his younger brother had recovered, even just a glimpse from afar would suffice.
The closer he got to his hometown, the faster his heart beat. He couldn't turn back. There was one more mission, and then it would be over. He looked at the parchment in his hand with a solemn expression.
What will the future hold? The demon who called himself the Lord of the Abyss said that after the contract was made, he would become a complete member of the Abyss.
However, for the sake of his younger brother, this ending seems not so bad.
"Quest issued: Investigate a corrupt exorcist. Difficulty: A. Time limit: unlimited. Items provided: Exorcism array. Perfect completion condition: ???"
"System, what are the conditions for achieving a perfect clear?" Lin Ye had developed the habit of asking questions at any time.
"Investigate Fang Linjie's story thoroughly and kill him," the system replied mechanically.
