The mother quickly moved her position, turned over slightly, and landed beside the bed, smiling "lovingly":

"What? My daughter, do you think I can't get in if you hide here?"

Vanessa's pupils first expanded and then suddenly contracted, and his heart beat like a drum again. He wanted to call for help but was unable to make a sound due to the sudden and huge fear.

At this moment, there was a "bang" sound, the door frame was directly violently smashed from the outside, and the iron door fell down on his "mother".

Then a Red Hair man rushed in coldly with a sword in hand.

Dick Seeing that the evil spirit under the door was still struggling, he raised his sword to stab, Vanessa hurriedly shouted:

"This is my mother. The evil spirit is only attached to her. Please don't hurt her!"

Hearing this, Dick kicked open the iron door, then pressed Lady Amara's neck with one hand. Regardless of her struggle, he reversed the sword blade and hit the weak point on the side of her neck with the hilt.

Then Mrs. Vanessa's limbs shook and she collapsed on the ground, no longer struggling.

"You... how did you kill my mother?" Vanessa said anxiously.

"Ma'am, she's not dead, I just knocked her out."

Dick didn't need to explain any more. He picked up the back of Lady Amara's pajamas and dragged her to a spacious place near the window in the bedroom like a dead dog before putting her down.

He then placed Lady Amara flat on the ground, face up, but saw her eyes closed tightly, with a look of pain and struggle on her face.

Dick slapped his right hand on the ground, and a circle with a purple halo and a pattern of unknown meaning appeared centered on him, and at the same time Lady Amara was wrapped in it - [Magic Trap] activated.

Then the struggling look on Lady Amara's face disappeared and gradually became peaceful again.

Dick then raised his head and looked at Vanessa:

"Now I used [Magic Trap] to temporarily suppress the evil spirit in your mother's body. It should be some kind of demon possession.

"Don't worry, your mother will be fine."

"That's good, you... are you Master Dick? How did you know that something happened to my mother?"

At this time, another person rushed in panting from the door.

"Yuanyuan, is this the demon hunter you called?" Vanessa said in surprise.

"Yes, it's okay, miss."

"That's what I am." Dick didn't think much about it. He just thought that his name had long been famous in the Ravenstern aristocratic circle, and then he gave the order:

"Now you call in the soldiers downstairs who we just called from patrolling the streets. About five or six people will be enough. They will hold weapons and guard..."

He glanced at the half-open window again. "Forget it, just let them stay at the door, and then you all go out."

Vanessa glanced at her mother on the ground with some worry, but still obeyed obediently.

Yuanyuan walked to the corridor again and directed the soldiers they met on the street to come up with long guns.

Dick walked to the door, easily picked up the iron door that was leaning sideways with both hands, closed the window tightly and blocked it in front of the window.

"This temporarily blocks a gap. Even if the devil appears, it won't be able to escape for a while."

Then, Dick knelt on one knee on the edge of [Magic Trap] and murmured:

"Kaer Commander-in-Chief Demon Hunter will protect us on the day of battle.

"Defend me from the devil's malice and all evil traps. May Kaer rebuke them. We humbly pray.

"With your divine power, you, the great god, drive out the demons of Hell, who roam the world, provoking evil spirits that harm people."

The spell mentioned was the only exorcism spell taught to him by Tyson before.

As he chanted the incantation, the lady in the center of [Magic Trap] struggled again, but her limbs were firmly trapped on the ground by the mysterious lines extended by [Magic Trap], unable to move.

Then the lady's belly suddenly swelled, and from the outside of her pajamas, eight limbs similar to those of an arthropod could be clearly highlighted - the demon was struggling inside her.

Then the 'arthropod creature' quickly poured from the abdomen into the chest and then into the neck, stretching the front of the lady's neck to the point of bursting.

Fortunately, the whole process was completed in just an instant. The lady opened her empty eyes, and at the same time let out a beast-like roar, and opened her mouth to the limit, spitting out a large amount of black liquid.

This liquid gas was as pure black as ink, floating strangely and dripping onto the floor next to the window, and seemed to be alive, twisting, gathering, and intertwining, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a spider half as tall as a man.

The surface is mixed with brown and purple, and the eight bean-sized eyes are arranged in two rows on the head and are blood-red. The chelicerae on both sides of the head move left and right, and they utter human words, and the voice is hollow and scary:

"Witcher, why are you stopping me from taking revenge!"

Dick stared:

This kind of monster knows itself through the memory of its original body, isn't it [Arachas]?

It is not a demon, but belongs to [Insectoids]. It likes to live in moist and dark caves deep underground and is good at spinning silk to catch prey.

This low-level magical creature should not be able to possess people, nor should it be able to speak.

But the [Arachas] in front of me is obviously different!

There was no time to think too much at this time, [Arachas] just said this, quickly danced its four pairs of huge steps, turned around and ran towards the window.

But the window had long been blocked by the iron door. Seeing that there was no way out, the spider cleverly crawled from the side wall to the ceiling and climbed towards the door.

When they approached, the soldiers at the door had already formed a formation, and several spears were quickly inserted.

Seeing this, the spider retreated helplessly towards the side wall of the bedside of the room. Dick, who was on the side, had already predicted the spider's movement, formed a seal with his right hand, and fired a cone-shaped Mind Shockwave forward, hitting the spider's head.

The red light in Arachas's eyes dissipated and he fell into a sluggish state. At the same time, his eight legs were no longer able to stick to the wall and fell from it.

Before it fell to the ground, Dick took another big step forward, swung out his sword, and the sword light flashed past.

With a 'swish' sound, Arachas was instantly split in half, and a large amount of green mucus was sprinkled on the head of the bed and the floor.

A prompt came from the panel:

Kill [Demonized Arachas] to get Energy Points X30, and complete the commission to get Energy Points X20.

The current total is Energy Points X750.

Dick is confused:

It stands to reason that [Arachas] belongs to [Insectoids], but the [Arachas] with the prefix [Demonization] that was killed in front of him belongs to [Relicts]. What is its relationship with the devil?

Looking back, I planned to ask the housekeeper and the girl in detail about the madam being possessed, but I found that the people around me were motionless:

Several soldiers at the door were still thrusting forward with their spears, their expressions solemn and murderous.

A little behind the soldier, the girl Vanessa was still looking at the room with a worried face, while the sweat stains on the face of the dwarf housekeeper on the other side had not disappeared. A crystal drop of sweat gathered a little below the tip of the nose. It could be clearly seen that it had separated from the nose, but did not follow Newton's law and fell to the ground.

Dick was shocked, and turned to look at the lady on the floor beside her. She still had her eyes closed, her whole body motionless, her chest was not rising and falling, and she seemed to be not breathing.

"What's going on? It's like these people are frozen in time."

He had never encountered such a situation before, and he couldn't help but feel nervous.

"Hahaha!"

There was a man laughing from behind, and there was also applause.

Dick suddenly broke out in cold sweat, holding the sword and quickly turned around to look at the person coming:

A thin man with a bald head, wearing a yellow shabby robe, but with an extraordinary bearing and nonchalance, was looking at himself with a smile on his face.

Seeing Dick's warning movements, the bald man lowered his hands to indicate that he was not a threat. He then placed his right hand on his chest, moved his left foot slightly backwards, and bowed.

After making a gentleman's salute, he stood up straight and said:

"First time meeting, [Dick of Rivia], I am Yuejiqi, of course you can also call me [World Jester]."
