American Exorcism Male God

The gorgeous one-legged woman flashed a brilliant smile at the driver, revealing her yellowing, rotten teeth. The driver screamed and retreated, but the woman's oil-paper umbrella began to spin, casting the rainwater aside.

An invisible wave pierced through the curtain of rain, and the fleeing driver let out a terrible scream as one of his legs snapped off in response.

The driver screamed as he crawled on the ground, blood oozing incessantly from his wound, washed away by the rain, leaving a long trail of blood spreading further ahead.

The one-legged woman turned her head to look in the direction of the taxi, while Lisa's eyelids twitched violently, squeezing into the driver's seat.

She didn't even have time to fasten her seatbelt because the one-legged woman had already hopped in front of the car.

Luckily, the driver hadn't turned off the engine earlier, so there was no need to restart it, which bought Lisa precious time.

She floored the gas pedal, ramming the one-legged woman expressionlessly, creating a loud bang. The car's front end caved in, and the one-legged woman was sent flying a few meters away, crashing heavily onto the roadside.

The one-legged woman lay in the grass, motionless. Lisa seized the chance to drive up to the side of the driver with the severed leg and shouted to Kawano Go, "Get him in the car!"

Kawano Go was shaking all over, as if petrified by fear, huddled in the back seat, immobile.

Lisa frowned slightly and had to risk getting out of the car to drag the driver into the back seat. She didn't have time to bandage him up, as her peripheral vision caught the one-legged woman standing up again.

Lisa returned to the driver's seat, fastened her seatbelt, and floored the gas pedal once more. The taxi roared forward, and she could vaguely see the lights of the city in the distance.

A shadow suddenly appeared up ahead, something massive falling from the sky.

Lisa's eyelids twitched, and she swerved violently trying to dodge it.

But it was too late. The taxi collided with something, leapt into the air, flipping twice before crashing down with a thunderous noise.

Lisa's head was spinning, but luckily she had her seatbelt on, which prevented her from being thrown out.

She bit her tongue lightly to bring herself back to her senses, tore off her seatbelt, and pushed the door open.

To her surprise, Kawano Go was also unharmed, crawling out of the car before her, while the driver was unconscious inside, his condition unknown.

A huge shadow loomed over them, and Lisa turned around to see what the taxi had hit. It was a foot, a giant's foot.

The giant, with an ugly visage, stood in front of the road, its skin blackened, and its hair, messy like seaweed, hung down.

Before she could make any further moves, the giant's back arched, it opened its mouth and ferociously expelled a powerful gust of air.

Lisa couldn't resist at all and was blown into the air.

In mid-flight, a hand suddenly grabbed her. It was Kawano Go, who had also been blown away, screaming in terror as he instinctively tried to grab onto something near him.

They fell downward, below them lay a small, well-lit village. As an exorcist, even in this situation, Lisa remained calm.

She spotted a cattle shed and forcibly twisted her body, pulling Kawano Go with her to land on the haystacks in the shed, avoiding serious injury.

But she didn't have time to catch her breath. An eerie sound came from behind, and turning her head, she faced a massive head rolling toward them from the dark tunnel, its crimson pupils staring at them.

Xu Yi had mentioned it before — this massive head seemed to be called "Tu Bi."

"Run!" Lisa growled, taking off.

"Help! Somebody help!" Kawano Go ran, crying out for help.

The village was brightly lit, and silhouettes hovered behind the windows. Laughter of children could occasionally be heard.

This village clearly had inhabitants, but despite such commotion outside and the presence of a huge monster, the villagers seemed unaware of anything, their peace undisturbed.

Suddenly Lisa understood. They had entered the "Different Space." The village seemed close at hand, but in reality, it was separated by a whole other world.

"We have to split up! I'll draw the monster away!" Lisa said after a moment's thought, not wanting to involve the others.

Kawano Go hesitated for a second before nodding his head.

Lisa picked up a brick from the side of the road and hurled it at the wall, trying to provoke the creature.

But the wall simply gave her a cold glance before continuing its pursuit of Kawano Go.

Lisa was taken aback and suddenly understood; the monsters' target wasn't her.

The monsters were after Harada Mieko because of her "Divine Body". The Eight Monster House had not made a move, evidently startled by the Ghost Samurai.

To lure out the Eight Monster House, Xu Yi came up with a plan. Lisa's "pseudo holy body" was also a special type of physique, which might be able to draw out the Eight Monster House.

Lisa had originally thought it was because of her "pseudo holy body" that these monsters had been attracted to her.

Now, looking back, it was the Cat Woman she had approached first at her lair; the other monsters appeared one by one only after encountering Kawano Go.

And the first monster Kawano Go met was clearly not the one-legged woman; seeing her did not trigger any reaction, which indicated he had encountered some other beast before.

All these monsters were coming for Kawano Go!

Did he have something special about him? Lisa was puzzled.

"Help! Save me!" Kawano Go obviously realized this too and came running back to Lisa for help.

"Run into the alley!" The corner of Lisa's eye caught a glimpse of a small alley in front of a courtyard, and her eyes lit up.

The wall's head was huge, so it probably couldn't enter the small alleys.

As they ran into the alley, the wall did not follow, instead watching them coldly from outside the alley.

They dashed through the alley, but every time they tried to break out, the shadow of the one-legged figure under the oiled paper umbrella would flash by, or the giant head of the wall would roll past outside.

Lisa looked up to see the Giant Mage perched on a distant tower, coldly overlooking them.

"It seems these monsters are trying to herd us toward a specific place!" Lisa suddenly realized.

The alley finally came to an end, and Kawano Go's face lit up with joy as he sped toward it.

Lisa and Kawano Go suddenly stopped in their tracks when the sound of the waves reached them from ahead; the end of the alley was actually connected to a sea!

Clearly, this was irrational; no village would build houses so close to the sea, as rising tides would flood them in minutes.

Lisa reaffirmed that the place they were in was not reality.

Upon seeing the sea, Kawano Go seemed to remember something terrifying, his body trembling uncontrollably.

There was no moonlight in the sky, and the sea was pitch black, and just then, lights suddenly appeared on the sea, coming not from a lighthouse, but from a fort-style house.

The huge house floated on the surface of the sea, and the waves constantly lashed against the walls of the house, splashing white foam.

The house drew nearer, and through the water's surface, the enormous tentacles beneath the house could be seen undulating.

The front door of the house stood ajar, with a "Welcome" sign hanging next to it. Warm, bright light spilled from inside, and a figure could vaguely be seen standing by the door, quietly watching them.

At last! Lisa took a deep breath; her long-awaited target had finally appeared.

"No!" Kawano Go, upon seeing the person beside the door, suddenly turned and ran, as if they were more terrifying than the monsters behind him.

But it was too late. A tremendous suction came from inside the door, and neither Lisa nor Kawano Go could resist being drawn in, and the door slammed shut.
