Priscilla gasped and covered her mouth with her two hands. She didn't expect to see such a brutal scene as soon as she shifted her attention.
The butcher can actually pounce like that! It happened so quickly that the officer was unable to react on time.
The poor police officer didn't even have a chance to cry in pain as he immediately died from the weight of that possessed butcher.
They could even see the cracks on the ground making them baffled how the butcher became so heavy.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Gunshots soon followed.
The other police officers didn't have time to grieve at the death of their colleague as they have to ensure their survival first!
Obviously, they know that they have to buy as much time as possible until the special units arrived to take care of this situation.
"Vale, I think we should leave this place…" Philip said as he can tell that the situation is not favorable for them.
They have already filled their curiosity and learned about the possessed being. They should be satisfied with this already.
Priscilla didn't mind whatever decision her companions would have and just remained silent while observing the movement of the possessed butcher.
Vale considered it for a moment before nodding his head.
Well, he noticed that the mysterious Arcane Arts Practitioners who were standing near the flower shop refused the young officer's offer as well.
However, these people still left their position and directly rushed towards the slaughterhouse…
'It seems that they're targeting the mastermind?' Vale mused.
"Alright… Let's leave…" Vale finally said as he confirmed that there is already someone dealing with the suspected culprit of this incident...
Whom~
Unfortunately, as they were about to leave, a wave of energy passed through them making them momentarily unable to move.
It only took them a second to recover but to their surprise, the surroundings already turned foggy as the area seem to have been isolated by some sort of Formation Arts!
"They're finally here..." Vale muttered as he saw a couple of police officers entering the scene.
One of them is a female officer with long black hair while the other is a huge man with an eyepatch on his left eye. Compared to the first group that has arrived, these two appear unbothered by everything as they looked at the possessed butcher with disdain.
Anyway, Vale also noticed that these two officers have blue gloves on their hands compared to the white gloves of the normal officers.
The butcher seems to be attracted by their presence and instead of chasing the other poor officers, the butcher pounced on the two newly arrived officers as if they were his mortal enemies.
Bang!
The male officer shot at the butcher but this time, Vale was shocked to see that the butcher used his cleaver to block the bullet!
The butcher didn't parry any bullet when dealing with the normal officer!
This made Vale believe that the special unit officer have different types of bullets meant for this possessed person.
Boom!
The bullet exploded after crashing on the cleaver…
Nevertheless, the cleaver was destroyed into many pieces turning them into shrapnels that made the area even more dangerous.
Vale and the others immediately took cover as they realized that the butcher was simply playing around a while ago!
The man with an eyepatch wasn't bothered by this as he even smiled at this turn of events…
"Good! You have a decent sentience! Show me what you got!"
The one-eyed officer laughed as he pulled the trigger of his revolver a couple more times…
This time, the butcher can no longer block it and tried to evade it with its unexpected nimbleness.
If Vale would make a guess, this nimbleness is similar to when he reached 8 Agility Points! The butcher actually dodged the first bullet and was grazed by the second bullet!
"GGaaaarrgghh!"
A voice a seems to have come from the depths of hell was heard after the butcher was grazed by the bullet! A trail of blood can be seen flowing on his left shoulder and normally, it should not be enough to incapacitate someone.
However, for some reason, the butcher's nimbleness wanes out as it continued screaming in pain before he finally collapsed to the ground.
"Officer Spencer, you used three bullets for this possessed being… That's 2,000 zen per bullet." The female officer reminded him as she looked at the slowly dying butcher. She remained vigilant and held her revolver firmly.
"Ugh… I got too excited… I thought this butcher's Evil Spirit would reach the same level as the one we encountered in Melthorn City---Oh, it's coming out. It's all up to you, Officer Roma!"
The female officer didn't reply as she looked at the cloud of dark smoke coming out of the butcher's body…
As soon as she confirmed her target, she returned her revolver to her holster and brought out a talisman from her pocket. She then chanted a prayer in a language that is not Oardic, Heumish, or Soineti.
Soon, the dark cloud of smoke was attracted to the paper talisman as it turned in its direction.
Officer Roma then took out a small empty bottle with her other hand… She removed the stopper quite swiftly and surprisingly, the cloud of smoke entered the bottle like it had just found its home…
From Vale's perspective though, it looked as if it was sucked into it before Officer Roma closed it up again with the cork and even sealed it again with the same paper talisman she used a moment ago…
Everything happened so quickly!
Then, the butcher that was previously possessed was suddenly dissolved into a purple liquid after Officer Spencer did something to it. It seems to be some sort of spell but Vale wasn't sure what had happened. He only saw how Officer Spencer got closer and waved his hands while Officer Roma was busy collecting the cloud of smoke.
"Hmmm… Now that we're done with this thing… How should we deal with those three kids?" Officer Spencer spoke calmly as he finally shifted his attention to Vale's group.
Officer Roma was also deep in her thoughts as she stared at them.
