Chapter 1849 Si, Signore
Diego did not know why Jin was not there to aid them. Given the person who had been recommended by Leader Yuan was supposed to be more than capable of clearing this entire mess, he instead decided to give them advice on how to eliminate the threat.
Regardless, Diego immediately relayed the information Jin had given him to the rest of the group and they managed to regroup and follow Diego's latest intel to fight against the Y'm-Bhi. Soon, they realised that what he said was true. The fight became easier and they eventually managed to have total battlefield control of the area.
This even gave Sir Diego some time to put up a proper fix to the dimension tear. While some of the Vatican Guards asked if this was the right decision since some of the Wang Liangs were in there as well. It would have been better to lure them all out and kill them.
However, Sir Diego refused the Vatican Elite's call to arms and told them to focus on the bigger picture where most of them were severely injured, tired and some never to come back again. The Guards eventually understood and aided to help clear the battlefield. Various vans came in and because it was a cover up operation, the construction company that was employed by the Demon Exorcists organisation also assisted by providing transportation to the nearest hospital.
"They are packing up now, do you still want the sensors to be up?" Lian was feeling the fatigue biting into her bones already but Jin did not wish for it to stop.
"Lower the interval rate but continue for at least one more hour or two then we will call it a day," Jin said and she understood the objective and continued while Jin took out some instant coffee from his storage watch. He made hot the coffee using his Maqi and passed it to her, telling her to hang on for a little while longer.
Almost everyone returned according to the birds and sensors except for Diego who had decided to stay at the centre of the Colosseum to pray for the souls that were lost. "Looks like the Western Demon Exorcists are rather …erm close to their gods."
"A number of their spells derived from the prayers of gods and their faith in them. So, it's not that surprising to us Eastern Cultivators to see them to be more devoted." Lian replied but suddenly she noticed that there was an uptick of energy away from the Colosseum.
"This felt like it's a new tear in the dimension. The energy readings are the same! About a kilometre away north from the Colosseum" Lian said and Jin nodded his head.
"Lian, inform Diego. I will move out first." Jin said as he stood up and started to run in the direction where the System had also pinned the coordinates for him.
"Do you want me to go as well?" Lian asked and Jin rejected her offer.
"Continue to monitor, I am sorry but increase the interval rate of the scans. If they are willing to open more tears away from the Colosseum, it means that they had enough fun, this is the real deal." Jin replied.
"Does that mean the big final boss will appear?" Lian asked through the System Channel since Jin was already out of her range.
"As long the tear is not within the Colosseum again, the chances of a big bad boss happening are not zero but lower," Jin replied and fastened his steps. He was dying to use the Lightning Flash Steps that Byakko offered him but this is the urban area and it was best not to make too much damage.
"Hello?" Diego picked up his phone, noting that this was another number.
"Hi, Sir Diego! This is Lian. I believe you knew Su Zhen and Lein, I am from their group if you remember. Sorry to call this particular line but it's an emergency." Lian tried to be respectful in her tone when talking to Diego.
"It is okay, what is the matter child? For you to have such urgency in your tone." Diego could hear that she wanted to let it out of her heart.
"Jin and I had been monitoring the fight. We apologise for not intervening but Jin said it's not time yet. And now I understand that he's right for the fight is not over." Lian wanted to say sorry first before telling him the matter. After all, if Jin was going to handle it, reinforcements coming in a few seconds later would not be a problem, correct?
"There's one dimension tear happening north of Colosseum, if you do not mind, I can send you the coordinates. I am not sure if Senior Jin knows how to close the tear but it would be best if you could go there. I have already called an Uber to your location and it's arriving soon."
"How kind of you. But are you sure your Senior is able to hold the fight until I arrive?"
"He is that capable," Lian said with absolute confidence instead of the wavering voice she had been using till now to talk to Diego.
"Good. I shall trust you, Lian." Diego said as he was given the details of the place as well as the Uber car plate number.
"I am still checking if there are any more tears in the area, if there is any update, I will inform you as soon as I can."
"Thank you, little one." Diego saw the Uber car coming and as he stepped in, he placed a fifty Euros note right in front of the driver. "Be there in less than five. Emergency."
"Si, Signore." The driver took the extra tip and asked the Demon Exorcist to buckle up as he dashed through the roads and traffic lights despite everything else.
Jin managed to reach in time to see Wang Liang trying to come out of the tear. However, Jin was not going to give it any quarters as he stabbed it through its chest and slashed it with some Maqi imbued into the attack, instantly killing it. By that time, the other Wang Liangs came out to play by mutating into Y'm-Bhi, surrounding Jin.
