Devil's Eye Reborn - Shadow Angel Awakens - Chapter 21

Chapter 19: My disguise has been detected
 

“Fellow brethren, today, we have among us a perpetrator who has slaughtered the emissaries of light of our church! His presence here aims to undermine the authority of our deity and massacre us! Fortunately, our merciful deity forewarned me, preventing further harm to innocent members of our congregation!” The leader pointed at me, bellowing, “On behalf of our deity, I ask you all, how shall we deal with this unjust and ignorant individual!”

Upon hearing the leader’s bellow, everyone unanimously cried out, “Kill him!”

After speaking, the believers suddenly retrieved various firearms from their bags and pockets, aiming them at me!

Seeing this, I could only laugh silently, but to avoid unnecessary harm, I had preemptively overturned a long table and crouched behind it before the crowd drew their weapons.

No sooner had I hidden myself than countless gunshots erupted behind me.

“Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!”

An endless barrage of bullets relentlessly pummeled the table behind me.

Although the table was constructed of steel, its thinness meant it was quickly riddled with holes.

At this pivotal moment, I realized that the weapon detection check before entering the clubhouse was likely the moment my identity was exposed. At this time, everyone present was armed, except for me, who was unarmed.

“To think, my lack of weaponry would set me apart,” I cursed silently, “This cult of Satan is truly bizarre!”

“Hey! I haven’t personally harmed any of those men in black!” I scoffed from behind the long table, “At most, I intimidated them into turning on each other; you can’t blame it all on me!”

The crowd paid me little heed, continuously chanting praises like “Our deity is merciful!” while unceasingly advancing towards me, guns blazing, with no intention of sparing me.

I picked up the scattered cutlery from the ground, and without raising my head, I flung it back at the congregation with a casual backhand throw.

Given the sheer number of congregants, each piece of cutlery I threw struck its target without fail. However, their overwhelming numbers resembled a surging tide; despite injuring over a dozen individuals, I couldn’t halt their advance.

“Luo Hu, you must order your men to cease fire!” I finally couldn’t contain myself and shouted loudly, “Otherwise, if you’re hit by a stray bullet later, I won’t be held accountable!”

Nevertheless, Luo Hu seemed intent on seeing me dead. Hearing my words, he sneered before loudly inciting the congregation, proclaiming, “Quickly, eliminate this sinner! Our deity, upon learning of your bravery, will surely bestow great rewards!”

Hearing the leader’s encouragement, the crowd’s demeanor grew even more ferocious, unleashing a fierce barrage towards my hiding spot.

Besides the original congregation members, numerous bald men in black had also drawn their guns, aiming at me.

“Hey, since you’re unwilling to spare me, I see no reason to continue showing mercy!” I sneered.

As soon as I took cover behind the table, I had already casually placed a silver platter, used for holding wine glasses, next to me.

The silver platter was exquisitely crafted, with a surface as reflective as a mirror.

At that moment, I quickly tossed the silver platter into the air, applying a clever force to make it hover momentarily.

The crowd was caught off guard by the sudden appearance of the silver platter, their gazes naturally following it. However, this was precisely the outcome I had anticipated!

The silver platter served as a mirror, and at that moment, with everyone’s attention fixed upon it, I only needed to activate the “Eye of Illusions,” glance upwards, and I would simultaneously connect with everyone and invade their realm of thought!

Although the refraction of light will greatly reduce the power of the magic pupil, it is more than enough for me to perform illusions on two hundred ordinary people.

When the silver basin fell back to the ground, causing a crisp sound, everyone’s vision had changed slightly.

At this time, I stood up straight and methodically dusted myself off, but the guns of all the believers were no longer pointing at me, but at their helmsman, Luo Hu!

Just because, in their vision, “I” had just run up the ladder to the second floor and held the “rudder” hostage.

“You…what are you doing!” Luo Hu asked in shock. Seeing that the momentum was not right, the four bodyguards quickly stood in front of him.

“Hey, I told you to ask them to stop attacking, otherwise it would hurt your valuable body, the helmsman!” I smiled at him and said, “But since you can’t listen to the helmsman, I won’t stop. Too much to say.”

After that, I clapped my hands.

At this moment, the hallucination caused all the believers to see “I” pushing “Luo Hu” down the stairs.

Seeing “Luo Hu” being attacked, everyone was of course furious, but “Luo Hu” had moved away from “me” and rolled down the stairs. When everyone saw this, they pulled down the gun board again!

In an instant, countless bullets were fired towards the “me” in their hallucinations, Luo Hu in reality.

In a moment, the four bodyguards in front of Luo Hu were shot into honeycombs. They were all killed before they had time to call out.

When Luo Hu saw the situation suddenly reversed, he immediately turned around and ran away!

Luo Hu fled in a hurry, but his subordinates were already rushing up the long-curved ladder.

He didn’t dare to look back and ran as fast as he could, finally reaching the study room at the end of the second floor. As soon as he entered, he quickly turned around, closed the door, and locked it firmly.

“Hey, this door is made of a very hard alloy. No matter how powerful your firepower is, you can’t damage it at all.”

Luo Hu wiped off the sweat on his forehead and said smugly, ignoring the strong slaps and roars outside the door.

After sitting at the desk and activating the mechanisms around the study, the helmsman’s originally nervous expression began to calm down.

At this time, he gently pulled the second drawer on the right, and a thick Bible that was originally placed on the table suddenly opened automatically.

When the Bible was opened, there was a small computer screen.

The “Bible” slowly rose. At this time, after Luo Hu pressed the password on the keyboard in the hidden drawer, he looked at the screen in front of him worriedly.

However, before any video was played on the computer screen, Luo Hu’s face suddenly turned pale.

Because in the reflection of the screen, he saw my smiling face floating on his left shoulder.

“Ah!”

Luo Hu exclaimed, jumped up in fright, and wanted to resist, but was pushed to the ground by my hand.

In fact, when he turned around and walked away from the bodyguard, I had already secretly followed him.

Since I had awakened the ” Eye of Illusions”, I was a hundred times more agile and my movements were as fast as lightning. Even if I followed him all the way to the study, I was not noticed by him.

“What on earth do you want to do?” Luo Hu forced himself to calm down, looked at me and said, “Everything must be discussed!”

“Hey, we have a discussion? Originally, I wanted to have a good talk with you, but you were bent on putting me to death, and now you want to talk about it?” I smiled evilly, and twisted his shoulder with a “click” and tore off the entire A left arm, “I’m most annoyed when others don’t listen to me. This arm can be regarded as a small punishment!”

The pain of a broken arm unexpectedly did not make Luo Hu extremely painful. He only became pale and sweaty.

“Who are you? Do you know what will happen if you go against our Satan’s Cult like this?” Luo Hu endured the pain and asked.

“Hey, you don’t need to know who I am. As for the consequences of going against you, I’m not interested.” I sat on the chair that belonged to him and said with a smile, “Stop asking questions, you are now All you have to do is contact your leader for me.”

“No! The leader is so noble, how can a mortal like you see him casually?” Luo Hu refused.

“Hey, it sounds like you are a loyal believer.” I looked at his right arm and smiled slightly: “But I am not a patient person. If I don’t see your leader again, I’m afraid that you will have nothing left. I can’t save my arm!”

Luo Hu was also shocked when he heard my threat, but after a moment of silence, he finally said resolutely: “Even if you pull out all my limbs today, I won’t give in!”

“Hey, what a tough guy.” I sneered, and just when I was about to take action again, my eyes caught a glimpse of a photo rack placed in the corner of the desk. There was a beautiful woman in the rack.

“Is this woman very important to you?”

I took the photo and looked at it carefully, with a slight smile on my lips.

When I broke his arm before, Luo Hu was just a little pale, but now when he saw my actions, he suddenly became excited and said angrily: “What do you want to do?”

“It seems that this woman is very important to you.” I looked at him and smiled: “If you want her life to be safe, just cooperate with me!”

“Don’t mess around!” Luo Hu couldn’t help roaring, but after a moment, he said in a deep voice: “Humph, but you and Ben don’t know who she is or where she is, so I won’t be fooled by you. !”

“Hey, who said I don’t know where she is?” I sneered and said, “Open the first drawer and take a look!”

Although Luo Hu looked confused, he still followed my instructions and opened the drawer.

But as soon as he opened the drawer, his face turned pale with fright, because in the drawer, there was a severed hand of a woman that had been chopped off!

The severed hand was slender, and there was a ring on the ring finger, exactly the same as the one on the woman’s hand in the photo.
