Chapter 193 Pete Casts a Spell
Li Yi and Lin Yue took a breath and escaped from the old city safely.

Thinking back on the scenes just now, it was really dangerous. I finally used the hanging spear to attack the soul and killed the monster called Alice, but I never thought that I would encounter the supernatural events in the old city again. Those zombies were so horrible that they had become powerful without me knowing and possessed unimaginable terrible strength.

If it had been a step later, the two of them might not have been able to escape alive.

"Compared to a while ago, these evil spirits have become stronger again." Taoist Priest Peter's eyes were filled with worry: "How is the mother spider? Did you successfully deal with it?"

"He should be dead. I killed him." Li Yi said.

Taoist priest Peter nodded and said, "That's good. At least one less trouble is needed. However, I am now worried that these zombies may spread outwards. By then, they may be seen in every corner of the city. I am powerless now."

"If we want to deal with it, we have to gather the strength of the practitioners in the entire city. Maybe there is still a chance."

"Is it that serious?" Li Yi asked in surprise.

Taoist priest Peter said: "I have tried to deal with it with the captain before. We fought our way to the lair of those evil spirits and thought we could succeed, but there was an unusual female ghost. The captain was seriously injured in one encounter and fell into a coma. We suffered heavy losses. In the end, I was lucky enough to escape with the unconscious captain on my back."

"I only regret that I am not a skilled martial artist. I only know a little about spearmanship, but not Taoism. Otherwise, how could I let that female ghost do evil here?"

Then he gritted his teeth, looking very unwilling.

"Female ghost?"

Li Yi's expression changed slightly, and he subconsciously thought of Liu Yan who had come back from the dead.

Could the female ghost that Taoist Priest Pete was talking about be her?

If it is true, then this Liu Yan is too terrifying. The corpse has only been back from the abandoned city for no more than three months, but it can cause such a serious incident. You have to know that she relies on rare objects for cultivation, and with the help of cross-border cultivation, she can reach the spiritual realm.

Is it really so terrifying to become a demon and practice cultivation?
"To kill these things, we not only need to destroy their bodies, but also kill the evil spirits attached to their bodies. Although the energy in our world has been polluted, we can still erode the evil spirits through pollution, but it will take some time. If the evil spirits leave the body during this period and possess other people, it will be troublesome."

Lin Yue frowned and said, "There is no shortage of people in the old city. It is precisely because of the mixture of people and ghosts that these evil spirits have room to breed. If you want to completely wipe them out, I suggest using weapons of mass destruction to destroy the entire old city. And the action must be fast. Once these things spread, there will be no way."

"That makes sense. To exorcise demons, we need to use drastic measures to wipe out the entire old city and exorcise all those evil spirits to prevent them from causing trouble again. Your suggestion is very good and it suits my heart. I will apply to the Investigation Bureau right away. I hope others can understand my good intentions."

Taoist Pete's expression changed. He felt that it made sense and immediately turned around and left.

He actually applied to use weapons of mass destruction.

Li Yi was stunned for a moment, looking at the figure of Taoist Peter striding away, wondering in his heart, is this really a Taoist practitioner?

Just use firepower to cover and destroy the city?
"Li Yi, let's evacuate quickly and go back to make preparations. If the higher-ups want to destroy the old city, we must be ready to deal with it." Lin Yue said.

"Okay, let's go back to the Peace Financial Building to rest first. We can discuss anything later." Li Yi nodded.

The two were unwilling to stay around any longer and left quickly.

At this moment, Zheng Gong and Yuan Mingjin also retreated successfully. They were waiting at the intersection on the way back. Only after seeing Li Yi and Lin Yue did they breathe a sigh of relief and feel relieved.

"Li Yi, Lin Yue, I'm glad you're okay. What happened just now? Why did you retreat suddenly? The body of the mother spider has not been recovered yet." Engineer Zheng asked with some confusion.

Li Yi's face darkened and he said, "The supernatural incident in the old city has become a big deal. After we killed the mother spider, zombies suddenly appeared. Moreover, the strength of these zombies is terrifying. Most of them have been practicing and have the strength of psychic mediums. A very small number of zombies have even become established and their strength is comparable to that of spiritual perception. If you don't retreat in time, you will not be able to retreat by then."

"We were lucky. We ran into Taoist Pete who came to support us and escaped safely. Now Taoist Pete has rushed back to the Investigation Bureau and plans to apply for the use of weapons of mass destruction to raze this old city to the ground."

"What?" Zheng Gong and Yuan Mingjin were both shocked.

Is it so scary?
Is the situation serious enough to destroy the entire old town?
Li Yi continued, "Engineer Zheng, Yuan Mingjin, you guys go back to the Investigation Bureau right now and apply for more sniper bullets. I feel like a battle is going to happen sooner or later, so we need to be prepared in advance. Also, if you have relatives or friends, have them stay away from the old city and go to the stable area. If not, have them come to my Peace Financial Building so that they can look after each other."

"Okay, I understand. I'll take action now." Engineer Zheng's face looked extremely solemn.

"Li Yi, I'll notify my uncle and the others to come to the Peace Financial Building and take shelter temporarily." Lin Yue said, "And by the way, let them buy more food and water so that they don't go hungry."

"Okay, I'll also notify my relatives and ask them to hide here for a while. If they don't want to come, let them temporarily leave Tianchang City and go to other cities to hide." Li Yi said, "Also, you are right. We need to prepare more supplies. In addition to food and water, we also need to buy nutrient solution for us practitioners. In short, everyone should hurry up and get ready together. Time is very tight and it is best to finish before dark."

"As soon as it gets dark, I feel like the zombies might start to move."

After a brief discussion, the few people quickly took action.

While they notified their relatives and friends to take refuge in the Peace Financial Building, they also asked them to quickly prepare some daily necessities.

Li Yi called Zheng Lan and asked her to make preparations and arrangements in advance.

"Everyone has to take refuge in the building? This building hasn't been renovated yet and can't accommodate many people. We can only sleep on the floor." Zheng Lan was also surprised after receiving the notice.

"It's okay, let's just stay here first. A building has 30 floors, which is enough to accommodate everyone's relatives and friends. Besides, not everyone will come, and some people may leave Tianchang City to seek refuge elsewhere." Li Yi said.

Zheng Lan said: "Since we can seek refuge elsewhere, why don't we go together?"

Li Yi said: "I am a foreign combatant of the Investigation Bureau. If I leave now, I will be a deserter and will never get a place in the Golden Academy. Besides, things are not that serious yet. This crisis is only dangerous for ordinary people, but for practitioners like us, we can still protect ourselves. We just need to unite together and not disperse to avoid unnecessary dangers."

"So that's how it is. That's good." Zheng Lan breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'll transfer some money to you later, and all expenses during the period will be charged to me." After saying this, Li Yi hung up the phone again, and then transferred 30 million to Zheng Lan.

Then he started to contact other people. "Lü Jue, it's me, Li Yi."

"Li Yi, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong?" Lu Jue's voice came from the phone.

"Do you know about the supernatural events in the old city?" Li Yi asked.

Lu Jue said: "I know something. What's the matter? Do you need help?"

Li Yi said, "It's not that I need help, but some zombies have appeared in the old city. It's very dangerous. I'm worried that it will spread at night. You'd better notify your relatives and friends to leave Tianchang City for shelter. If it's inconvenient to leave, you can come to my Heping Financial Building to hide for a few days. The Investigation Bureau is considering whether to destroy the entire old city. I'm notifying you in advance now, and I hope you can make preparations early."

Hearing this, Lu Jue couldn't help but take a breath.

Li Yi really brought himself shocking news.

"Li Yi, what are you going to do? Are you going to take refuge with us? Or are you planning to leave Tianchang City?" Lu Jue asked after a long silence.

"Me? I don't plan to seek refuge. I will naturally stay in Tianchang City to see how the Investigation Bureau handles it. Maybe I can help at a critical moment." Li Yi said.

"Okay, then I'll bring some friends to your place later, and I hope I can help you." After thinking for a while, Lu Jue gritted his teeth and made a decision.

Li Yi whispered, "Think it over carefully. If you don't support me properly, people may die. This is not like facing ferocious beasts in the danger zone before. This time we are facing evil spirits and ghosts."

"I know, but in this situation, it's better for practitioners to unite together." Lu Jue said, "And there are a few friends who have always wanted to invest in you. This is also an opportunity for them. Don't worry, I will tell them the risks. If they are willing to come, they can come. If they don't want to come, they can leave. It's all up to them."

"Okay, then you should confirm it before tonight." Li Yi did not refuse and agreed to Lu Jue's proposal.

The more people around you at this time, the safer you will be.

After Li Yi hung up the phone, he contacted other people and told them the news.

In short, he did his best to take care of his relatives and friends.

After doing all this, Li Yi felt that he had done his best.

at the same time.

Inside the Investigation Bureau.

"Borrow the east wind to destroy evil spirits? Taoist Pete, are you serious?" A senior executive stared at Taoist Pete with a serious look.

Taoist Peter nodded and said, "Only by borrowing ten east winds can the disaster be quelled."

"Doing this is equivalent to destroying the old city? No, that's absolutely not possible. The old city covers almost half of Tianchang City. Without the old city, Tianchang City will also be gone. Taoist Peter, I don't agree with your proposal."

At the meeting, the top brass of the Investigation Bureau directly rejected Taoist Priest Pete’s proposal.

"I have not practiced enough, and my skills are limited. I can only rely on the east wind to accomplish my mission. I cannot subdue the evil spirits in the old city by myself. If I don't take action before tonight, the zombies will expand their influence. By then, things will only become more troublesome, and many people may lose their lives."

Although Taoist Priest Pete has blond hair and blue eyes, he has a compassionate face and his eyes are full of concern for saving the world and the people.

"Then we will mobilize all the practitioners in the Investigation Bureau, and ask Li Shaoqing from the Practitioner Association to help. We will give two places in the Golden Academy and twenty rare training rooms as rewards, and mobilize all the practitioners in the city to carry out a major cleanup, take over the old city in one fell swoop, and destroy those monsters."

There was another senior executive who had a hot temper. He slammed the table and directly put the financial resources of the Investigation Bureau on the line.

"A place in the Golden Academy and twenty rare object training rooms? This is no joke. If we put all the resources on this one incident, we will have nothing to do if other things happen later." Other senior executives were shocked.

"What are you afraid of? If we lose the rare item training room, then we can take out the extraordinary water and the training techniques. At most, I can lose my old face and ask the higher-ups for the cross-border quota. We should save Tianchang City first. Now that we have lost the city, what are we still keeping these things for? Are we going to take them into the coffin?" said the hot-tempered senior executive.

"Through further consideration, I have no objection to giving up the Golden Academy's quota. After all, there are only a few people who are capable of competing. Twenty places for the Rare Item Training Room is too many. Let's give out twelve to leave some for our Investigation Bureau. We still need to train investigators in the future." Another senior executive frowned and said.

At this moment, Taoist Priest Peter said with a compassionate look: "If you are unwilling to lend me the east wind, I have another plan to rid the old city of all evil spirits."

"Master Peter, if you have any ideas, please tell me now."

Taoist priest Peter stroked his beard and whispered, "Give me a hundred white phosphorus bombs and let me use the white phosphorus exorcism technique. It will only take one night to eliminate all the evil spirits and let Tianchang City return to peace. I have studied those evil spirits. Although they are vicious, they are also mortal and cannot resist the white phosphorus exorcism technique."

"Master Pete, please put away your Taoist magic. I thank you on behalf of the residents of Tianchang City." A senior official said with a twitching mouth.

"As discussed before, we will allocate two places in the Golden Academy, plus twelve rare treasure training rooms, and invite all practitioners in Tianchang City to handle this incident in the name of the Investigation Bureau. Operation codename: Exorcism."

"The Practitioners Association may not be willing to help." Someone said.

The hot-tempered senior executive said coldly, "Maybe we can't send them to Golden Academy, but I have a lot of ways to prevent them from going to Golden Academy and becoming cross-border people. Want to escape in times of danger? No way. If you don't contribute, you all stay in Tianchang City and don't even think about going anywhere."

"This is a very good saying, and it is in line with Taoism." Taoist Priest Pete nodded and praised.

"Can this be related to Taoism? What kind of Taoism does this correspond to?"

Taoist priest Peter said: "If my Taoist friend dies, I will not die."
