Chapter 365: Chapter 217 Self-Sacrifice Chapter 365: Chapter 217 Self-Sacrifice New York City, Central Square.
In front of the decommissioned airplane, the space was filled with detectives and local emergency staff dispatched to the site.
Even several prominent figures had personally driven over to show respect.
Having witnessed the miracle performed by Saintess Teresa before.
Everyone present believed that evil had retreated, and everything was under their control.
Just as they were supporting Saintess Teresa, preparing to board a custom-stretched limousine.
People suddenly heard a muffled gunshot.
A specially crafted brass bullet pierced through the glass curtain wall of a nearby office building, aiming for Saintess Teresa.
And in that instant, before anyone could react.
A priest, clad in the long robe of a priest and wearing a mask, suddenly appeared at the side of the Saintess, his left hand balled into a fist as he smashed it towards the incoming bullet.
The bullet struck the priest’s fist, but then burst into a flash of fire and a screeching sound of tearing metal.
The bullet was forcibly deflected far away by the fist.
The people around were stunned, only then realizing that the attack against Saintess Teresa… was not over!
And the attacker had boldly used modern technology for a sneak attack!
Experienced agents hurriedly turned their heads toward the source of the sound.
But they could only see the towering skyscrapers and the seemingly bullet-pierced undulating curtain wall.
“In the southwest direction! At least three kilometers from the target!”
Fortunately, large drones were also suspended high in the sky, capturing the direction of the sniper.
However, this sniper was not some random bad guy.
He was one of the security personnel responsible for this operation!
But looking at his pitch-black eyes and the dark aura emanating from his body, it was clear he was possessed by a demon.
Investigators were ordering nearby personnel to arrest him.
When they saw on the surveillance video that the masked priest who had protected Saintess Teresa with a punch, suddenly sprang into action, leaping dozens of meters high before climbing up the curtain wall of the building, directly ascending to the rooftop.
After several leaps and climbs, he went from Central Square to the rooftop where the sniper was located.
The armed helicopter pilots, contemplating whether to open fire, were stunned.
The sniper, Zhang Dazui, let out a beast-like roar as he raised his sniper rifle and continuously pulled the trigger.
But as soon as the muzzle flashed, the masked priest appeared before him, punching the sniper in the face and knocking him heavily to the ground.
Afterward, through the drone’s perspective, people could clearly see black vapors rising from the body of the fallen sniper.
Soon, from within the black vapor, emerged hellhounds the size of adult lions, with entirely black bodies.
These hellhounds were in fact Paper Persons, a type of Magic Artifact.
Drawn and crafted by Su Ping himself, they appeared lifelike in the eyes of the common folk.
After these five hellhounds emerged, they entered into a genuine battle with the masked priest acting as a puppet knight.
Although the special effects created by Su Ping’s talismans and tricks were fake.
The fight between the puppet and the Paper Persons was real.
In the blink of an eye, not a single piece of the rooftop remained intact.
The masked priest, having just knocked away two hellhounds, was suddenly hit in the chest by another hellhound, then grabbed one of the middle heads of the hellhound.
He then fell from the rooftop along with the hellhound, landing directly on the roof of a bus with a thunderous crash.
Smashing the entire rooftop of the bus flat and even causing it to explode!
The remaining hellhounds, one by one, leaped from the high altitude.
Each one plunged into the dust and smoke clouds created by the impact.
Suddenly, a golden light burst out from the cloud of smoke.
One after another, the hellhounds were flung in all directions.
After crashing through the glass curtain walls on the surrounding streets, they caused uproars among the people inside the buildings.
Among them was a gym where men and women immersed in working out had paid no mind to what was happening in other parts of the city.
When the hellhound crashed through the curtain wall and fell to the ground.
They were initially dumbfounded.
Then, in the blink of an eye, each of them stood on end with fear, almost ready to cry.
Too terrified to move or scream, they just stared as the hellhound shook its heads and got back up, ignoring the people as it dove back through the shattered opening.
Only when the monster was completely out of sight.
Did the men and women of the gym come back to life, as if a play button had been pressed.
The gym’s owner, a bodybuilding enthusiast whose body seemed to be all muscle, quickly reached for his phone ready to dial.
But as he brought it to his ear.
He once again felt the ground shake and heard a loud noise next to his ear.
This time, it was a priest in tattered clothing who had smashed through the ceiling, crashing down right in front of him.
Then in the next second.
Before the gym owner could get a clear look at the priest.
He saw a shadow plunge down, and then with a loud bang, it took the priest and smashed through the gym’s floor, descending to the next level, and then another…
In no time at all, the gym owner even heard the sound of cars honking from the second underground parking level through the large hole in the floor.
The emergency plan was activated.
Saintess Teresa was whisked away into the special vehicle, and then the convoy thundered towards the church formerly managed by Father Victor.
