Jennifer's Arrival, Ability Extraction: Evil Spirit Possession

It hadn't even been a full day since Li Dan and the others were sent to the town to rest.

The police had already closed the case at the cave, publicly stating it was terrorists and not mentioning the Wendigo.

During this process, Li Dan learned a bit about the Vatican, as there was a priest in town who would say anything if paid.

Not all priests and nuns of the Holy See were loyal to the Church.

There were also fallen nuns and priests; the only difference was whether they acted openly or secretly.

According to the priest, unless it couldn't be hidden, they would generally try to conceal things to avoid public panic.

Once confirmed, the Church would dispatch exorcists or priests to the scene for an exorcism.

Exorcists were usually hired externally.

Learning so much about the Church was a small but pleasant surprise for Li Dan.

Afterward, Li Dan returned to Round Clam Town with Teacher Beth.

Round Clam Town was as lively as ever.

Director Pete managed the town impeccably, with very few murder cases, at least on the surface.

It was hard to say what happened behind the scenes.

The town's residents had quite a few complaints about Sheriff Joe and Brother Q; both were good friends of Pete.

One was a sheriff in a wheelchair, the other a walking cannon.

The former was alright, but the latter was incredibly reckless, a classic example of someone who appealed to everyone, carrying all sorts of viruses. His dad was a transsexual who, rumor had it, had once "pulled a radish with a dog."

Oh, right, and Pete's son and daughter were both incorrigibly stupid, ranking at the bottom of their class and also liking to...

What others saw as flaws.

Were full of merits for Li Dan. He felt a sense of security in Round Clam Town that he couldn't find anywhere else.

As soon as he returned to his detached villa and lay on the sofa, A Diamond Four appeared in Li Dan's hand. With the matter settled, it was time to examine the Evil Spirit Wendigo's abilities.

"Contained Entity: Evil Spirit Wendigo."

"Available Abilities: Soul Devour, Bloodlust, Evil Spirit Possession, Physique Enhancement, Thorn Bone Spikes."

Soul Devour meant exactly what it said: the ability to devour a person's soul. This was a skill possessed by most demons and evil spirits.

He hadn't seen the Evil Spirit Wendigo use it before, perhaps it required certain conditions?

It seemed of little use to Li Dan. As for Thorn Bone Spikes, he had already witnessed it; the oppressive feeling was indeed strong, but it wasn't very suitable for ordinary people.

After all, the mere act of bone spikes piercing through the skin all over the body was quite problematic.

Bloodlust, as the Evil Spirit Wendigo's Bloodlust, was naturally stronger, with more obvious side effects.

Evil Spirit Possession was even more useless. If he could directly merge with a contained entity, why would he need Evil Spirit Possession? What good could an evil spirit be? It would be a pain if it decided to stay in his body and not leave.

The previous second stage of the Evil Spirit Wendigo was likely a combination of Evil Spirit Possession and Thorn Bone Spikes.

The only difference was that the evil spirit and the Wendigo had already become one.

Normally activating Evil Spirit Possession would likely attract the attention of surrounding evil spirits, leading to a series of tragedies and then being devoured by Soul Devour.

In comparison, Physique Enhancement was the most suitable ability for Li Dan.

Unlike the previous Hearing Enhancement and strength enhancements, Physique Enhancement was a comprehensive improvement. The amplification rate was also far greater than that of Deformed Person.

"Draw."

After understanding the functions of the abilities, Li Dan didn't hesitate. Without any casting prelude or rituals, he just drew.

"Contained Entity: Evil Spirit Wendigo."

"Fusable Ability: Evil Spirit Possession."

Well, the Physique Enhancement Li Dan had been hoping for wasn't there, but Evil Spirit Possession appeared instead.

However, this was normal. With a one-in-five chance, it was impossible to draw whatever he wanted.

Fortunately, this Evil Spirit Possession was an active talent, not a passive one.

Otherwise, Li Dan wouldn't dare to fuse it. In this world, who knew when he might pass by an evil spirit and get possessed.

With an active talent, it was fine; at least he could control it.

Perhaps it would have unexpected effects in certain situations.

He just didn't know what would happen if he were possessed by an evil spirit and then fused with the Evil Spirit Wendigo.

The major issue was resolved, and Li Dan's mind relaxed. He prepared to enjoy a nice afternoon nap.

He had only just started to feel drowsy.

The doorbell rang incessantly.

Li Dan didn't want to deal with it, just wanting to take a proper nap. He didn't expect the doorbell to keep ringing without stopping.

Who the hell is it?

Li Dan was already feeling a bit drowsy. He hadn't slept properly in the cave before, and only got a few hours at the hotel.

Being disturbed like this, he was starting to get a little annoyed.

He opened the door.

Standing there was a stunning beauty with tanned skin, not naturally tanned but deliberately so. It was obvious who it was.

Jennifer had been staring at Li Dan's small villa, and now that she was back, she'd come straight to his door.

She had even dressed up specially today.

Jennifer was wearing just a white shirt, the hem loosely tied in a knot, perfectly outlining her slender waist and abdomen. Her denim shorts made her legs look long and shapely. Her casual outfit exuded a relaxed vitality.

"What do you want?" Li Dan had to admit that although he was annoyed about his nap being disturbed, Jennifer's face and figure made it hard to stay angry. Moreover, she had a legitimate reason for being there.

"Didn't I tell you I was going to pursue you? You didn't answer my calls, and that makes me very sad."

It's true that all women are drama queens, and Jennifer was a top-tier one. She had a mature, commanding face, yet she put on a pitiful expression, creating quite a contrast.

Li Dan scratched his head, speechless. "I was taking a nap. You disturbed my rest."

Jennifer was impressed. If it were any other man, he'd be anxious by now, wanting to invite her in and study human anatomy.

But looking at Li Dan's sleepy appearance, she wondered, Am I really that unattractive?

"Since you're awake, aren't you going to invite me in?"

Li Dan thought about it for a moment before stepping aside.

"Fine, you can come in and sit. But you have to tell me if you've encountered anything strange lately."

If it were before, he definitely wouldn't have let Jennifer in. But now that he had contained the Evil Spirit Wendigo, he felt a bit more confident facing what she called a demon.

Judging by the way the demon possessed Jennifer's body in that show, the Evil Spirit Wendigo was slightly superior.

He wasn't sure about their true forms, though.

In any case, they could talk about it inside.
