Chapter 739: Chapter 431: Reaper to the Rescue!_2 Chapter 739: Chapter 431: Reaper to the Rescue!_2 “I wonder how far this Semi-Spirit Body has evolved by now,” Yan Junze mused to himself.
He quickly arrived at the front yard of a rural household, where an old woman was sweeping the yard with a broom and hadn’t noticed Yan Junze’s arrival.
Yan Junze walked in and said, “Granny, may I use your telephone?”
As the old woman looked up and saw Yan Junze, blood-stained, standing in front of her, she jumped in shock, dropped her broom, and turned to run.
Of course, she couldn’t see the Back-faced Woman and Ke’er; otherwise, she wouldn’t just run away but would probably knock herself out cold.
“Granny, don’t panic, I’m not a strangeness,” Yan Junze hurriedly explained, “The vehicle I was in had an accident; the blood is from soone else. I need to make a phone call. May I?”
The old woman paused, took a good look at him, and saw that Yan Junze spoke energetically and looked spirited. He didn’t seem injured.
She nodded, “My son and his dad just left the house. Here’s the phone, see if you can use it.”
As she spoke, she habitually wiped her hands on the apron tied around her waist, then pulled out a cell phone designed for seniors from her pocket.
“Young man, you’re not injured, are you?” she asked with concern as she passed the phone to Yan Junze.
“I’m not, thank you!”
Yan Junze shook his head, took the phone, and directly dialed the number of Zhang Chengjing, the foster father of Zhang Xiaomo.
Zhang Chengjing was a senior mber of the Exorcist Brigade, practically a founding figure. His phone number, among those of other key personnel, was sothing Yan Junze had committed to mory.
After all, this man was Xiaomo’s father.
The call connected quickly.
“Hello?”
A loud voice suddenly burst from the receiver, louder than if the speakerphone was on, startling Yan Junze.
The old woman laughed apologetically, “I sotis can’t hear well, so I keep the volu up.”
“No problem, no problem,” Yan Junze nodded, his ears still ringing.
He turned the call volu down to the lowest setting before bringing it close to his ear again. By then, Zhang Chengjing was almost ready to hang up.
“Hello, Uncle Zhang, this is Yan Junze.” Yan Junze moved to the side, lowering his voice.
Zhang Chengjing paused on the other end, “What’s up? Did you change your number?”
“No, I’m using soone else’s phone,” Yan Junze explained, “Sothing might have happened to Zhang Xiaomo and the others, but I can’t get there…”
“What? Where are they?” Zhang Chengjing imdiately sounded worried.
“In Tianng City, at the Prosperous Age Mall on Minjian Road,” Yan Junze rembered the place very clearly.
“What did she encounter? A strangeness or…”
Zhang Chengjing hadn’t finished speaking when Yan Junze interrupted him, saying, “It’s not a strangeness, it’s a very powerful exorcist. Uncle, you must figure it out. Even though Guo Youliang is also in that place…”
“What, Old Guo is there and that’s not enough?” Zhang Chengjing was clearly shocked, “Who exactly is the other party?”
“It could very well be the Reaper from the USA’s Great Capital?” Yan Junze said, “Uncle Zhang, you must use your authority or relationships, sohow, to stop them, if only for a mont! Just stalling them for a mont would be enough!”
The reason Yan Junze made this phone call was he had encountered the Reaper Morrison several tis, teaching him that as a Reaper-level exorcist, Morrison had the ability to create avatar clones.
Morrison himself could plant two avatars in Olay Great Capital’s Klargon Castle and on Ruisen Island in the USA’s Great Capital.
If he could do it, then surely the Reaper from Huaying Great Capital could as well.
The only thing required now was for soone to persuade a Reaper-level exorcist to help, and there was no one more suitable than Zhang Chengjing.
Zhang Chengjing was a founding elder of the Huaying Exorcist organization and a senior mber of the Exorcist Brigade. Although he wasn’t a Deputy Brigade Commander, he was on par with one.
Furthermore, being a veteran five-star exorcist, it likely wouldn’t be difficult for him to request the aid of a Reaper.
The only real issue now was that Yan Junze couldn’t be certain whether the Huaying Great Capital’s Reaper had placed an avatar clone in Tianng or not.
If his guess was correct, as part of the exorcist organization, they would definitely have their avatar clones in strategically important areas throughout the eight districts of Huaying Great Capital.
Currently, it seed unlikely that a Reaper would reside long-term in Huaying District. The previous Possession Spirit attack on Tianng had gone without a sighting of the Reaper, indicating that, possibly, there was a Reaper living in Tianng who had no need to reveal himself, or there was no Reaper in Tianng at all.
If there was no Reaper here, then there was a high probability that a Reaper’s avatar had been placed here.
And the task was to rely stall the adversary for a mont, which was related to Yan Junze’s newly ford mories. He thought he knew what the outco would be.
No sooner had Yan Junze finished speaking than he heard Zhang Chengjing talking sternly and urgently to soone else on the line, “Imdiately connect to Han through the internal line, I need to speak with him, hurry!”
The call was then disconnected.
After deleting the call log, Yan Junze handed the phone back to the old woman, thanked her, and quickly left.
The old woman looked at the phone in bewildernt, feeling as though the young man had not called the police or an ambulance.
At this point, Yan Junze was still sowhat uneasy. After departing the rural compound, the Back-faced Woman led the way to the outskirts of the highway.
Before long, they ca upon the Long-tongued Zhenzhen and the Crawler Monster, still looking around cluelessly.
