Chapter 416: 412, you know too much.
The last chance to make a wish had to be taken with great care.
Once used up, the Evil Spirit inside the Joker Card would erupt.
Although they had “never met face to face”.
But presumably, the Evil Spirit inside had longed for Du Wei, even though it was always the Black Shadow that made the wishes, but it truly suffered too much because of Du Wei.
The original number of wishes had already been used up.
Yet, Du Wei forcefully played a hand by strengthening the Black Shadow, making it take the fall, forcibly pushing back the Evil Spirit, and unreasonably creating six more chances to wish.
...
In a sense,
Du Wei’s methods of dealing with the Evil Spirit were so brutal that they were appalling; he was simply the coldest capitalist. To the Evil Spirits and Evil Spirits in his hands, other than being exploited, when they became useless, they would be recycled as waste.
Take the black umbrella brought from the school earlier for example.
It was directly used as a torch and burned.
As for the Black Shadow that had been with Du Wei for the longest time, that’s even less necessary to mention.
If the Black Shadow had a brain, it might feel that being alive was kind of nice… maybe…
Therefore,
Translating to the Joker Card,
Du Wei wanted to make full use of this wish ability.
“This wish cannot be fulfilled immediately, or else the Evil Spirit inside the Joker Card will directly erupt,”
“So I need to add some restraining conditions to the wish.”
Currently, Du Wei knew that his Evil Spirit self had a backup plan and had set a trap.
Thinking big,
If he stepped into it, he could only lose.
But from a different perspective,
If the trap could be rendered ineffective, it was the same as destroying a significant aid for the Evil Spirit version of Du Wei.
By then, it would turn into a fight between Evil Spirit Du Wei and Du Wei, the bus, the Horror House, and all the Evil Spirits that had been marked.
One against hundreds.
How twisted could one be to achieve this extent?
Du Wei didn’t think Evil Spirit Du Wei was capable.
Otherwise, he might as well just commit suicide.
However, with that in mind,
Du Wei also thought of a very rogue method.
It was inspired by Annabelle.
Earlier,
Annabelle was captured by the long-dressed Evil Spirit but brought it back home, where it was killed by the Antique Clock in seconds.
Du Wei could also mark Evil Spirit Du Wei and bring it to a certain place.
This Marking Ability, he had never revealed before…
He would carry himself along with Evil Spirit Du Wei all out of the trap.
The prerequisite was,
The moment Du Wei marked Evil Spirit Du Wei, he must disappear immediately.
Otherwise, the unknown trap would leave him with no ability to fight back.
With this thought,
Du Wei, with his mask on, used the Joker Card to make a wish, “This wish will start with me initiating the Marking Ability after confronting Evil Spirit Du Wei and end with me, along with my belongings, appearing inside the bus the moment it arrives.”
The Joker Card became somewhat icy, but quickly faded.
Hmm… it was not doable.
Du Wei raised an eyebrow and had to say, “Then change it to end with me appearing in the urban reflection.”
This time, the Joker Card reacted…
It didn’t refuse because the wish had a precondition.
It seemed that even the card felt that as long as it could be rid of Du Wei sooner, it was no big deal.
For a moment,
Du Wei felt an evil gaze fixed upon himself.
Apart from the Black Shadow, it seemed to be watching him too.
But as quickly as the gaze appeared, it disappeared just as fast.
Only the remaining head wearing a mask on the card’s face started to decay, albeit very slowly.
The wish had taken effect.
But this wasn’t enough.
Du Wei took off his mask and pulled out the envelope from his pocket.
The Black Shadow stood behind him at the same time.
The paper floated up on its own.
A line of text eerily appeared.
[“Great Master, the night is dark today, yet your arrival has lit the way forward for the envelope. You are now at the European headquarters of the Veda Sect, preparing for a life-and-death… battle?” with your Evil Spirit self.]
[“Master… perhaps… could you calm down?”]
Looking at the words on the paper,
Du Wei calmly said, “I am calm, so you’d better pray that I win this time, or else the Evil Spirit me might tear you to shreds, because I’ve always wanted to do just that.”
He did not like the envelope.
He had kept it only for various reasons.
But if the Evil Spirit Du Wei won, it would not keep something like the envelope.
“So you’d better tell me something useful, helping me now is helping yourself.”
Du Wei said this to the envelope.
And the text on the envelope flickered, quickly vanishing from sight.
When the text reappeared, it read as follows:
[“Ten minutes ago, the Great Master arrived at the headquarters of the Veda Sect with the most loyal envelope. You sensed it might be a trap, so you used the Joker Card.”]
[“But in fact, the headquarters of the Veda Sect is still relatively safe for now, the real danger is the red balloon you called Pennywise.”]
[“It seems to be a creature made by your Evil Spirit self.”]
[“But to the Great You, Pennywise is nothing more than a dog that betrayed you, far less loyal and reliable than the envelope. The envelope suggests that you should kill it right now.”]
Du Wei sneered, “It seems that my caution towards you was warranted.”
[???]
[“What do you mean, Master?”]
Du Wei coldly said, “You know too much.”
Having spoken, he directly stuffed the paper into the envelope, gripping it tightly with his Evil Spirit-transformed hand.
Then he turned to look at the dark shadow behind him.
The shadow trembled slightly, holding two daggers, it took a step back.
But Du Wei, regardless, stuffed the envelope inside it.
All at once.
The shadow seemed to freeze; it looked down and saw the blurry outline of the envelope hidden within its body.
The shadow had no physical form.
It only had the outline of a shadow.
But the envelope got stuck inside it.
However, this had no effect on the shadow.
So, it made no further movements, always standing behind Du Wei.
“Now, the plan can begin.”
Du Wei took a deep breath, slung his pack over his shoulder, and walked resolutely towards the castle in the valley.
The envelope had previously followed Hannibal, and Hannibal had been influenced by the Evil Spirit Du Wei. The Evil Spirit Du Wei surely knew of the envelope’s abilities.
Therefore, it could not be kept on oneself.
Hiding it within the shadow was safer.
And now, what he had to do was quite simple.
Just a little acting…
Put up a symbolic resistance when meeting people from the Veda Sect…
Then get captured alive.
Next, confront the Evil Spirit Du Wei.
Even if he were to be anesthetized, it would not matter. His wish had been made, and the power of the mind would wake him up in the instant he confronted the Evil Spirit Du Wei.
This was the most perfect plan Du Wei could think of.
“Let’s see who will be the lucky audience to capture me.”
Du Wei descended into the valley, lighting a cigarette for himself.
He walked and smoked at the same time.
Meanwhile,
A bishop from the Veda Sect happened to be patrolling the perimeter of the manor.
Read lat𝙚st chapters at fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓ Only.
Seeing the figure of a man walking down from the mountain, the lead bishop was stunned.
The rules of the Veda Sect were strict, basically prohibiting men from entering.
Immediately, a bloodthirsty craving surged in her heart.
But when she clearly saw the man’s face, a trace of ecstasy flashed in her eyes.
“Prepare the tranquilizer gun, capture him alive!”
