Jimmy heard the Priest's words and imdiately picked up the dagger to take a look. A lot of black blood was stained on it, and it was the blood of the Shadow Beast. If the Priest was infected, wouldn't he also be infected? He had held this dagger in his mouth just now—thinking about it now, was he too careless about the risk?
He placed the dagger on the nearby rack and took off his clothes to start checking. He even asked the assistant to help check his back for any wounds he couldn't see.
The two Priests with scratches followed the sa actions, especially the one who fell. He was even more unlucky than the other, with deeper scratches on his chest, which is why he imdiately realized he was infected. The power carried by the Shadow Beast's claws conflicted with his own strength, making it manifest faster on him.
Jimmy had quite a few superficial wounds that were mostly abrasions. The claws hadn't directly torn them apart, just showed so sign of bleeding, and he himself didn't feel anything.
After checking himself, Jimmy took a bottle of mineral water from his backpack to rinse his mouth, then walked to the side to spit it out. He pressed his tongue root, touching the tonsils to induce vomiting reflex, puking twice before rinsing with mineral water again. The feeling of vomiting was very unpleasant, and the taste in his mouth and throat was sowhat nauseating.
Jimmy paused for a mont and said, "Priest, are you sure it's the areas scratched by its claws that get infected? I don't feel anything."
The Priest, looking grim, said, "I am sure. Prepare the materials, let's perform a purification ceremony imdiately."
Three Priests and an assistant imdiately took out the items they had and began preparing in the warehouse, directly drawing purification runes. Eventually, including Jimmy, everyone who had contact with the Shadow Beast stood within the range, and the uninjured Priest perford a temporary purification for the three of them.
Jimmy looked at the exorcism badge in his hand and the piece of torn cloth wrapped around his arm, and couldn't help but chuckle bitterly. How could he encounter such bad luck? Most people never experience an exorcism ceremony in their lifeti, yet he had gone through three or four different ones in recent years.
These three exorcist Priests were genuine, even if they were combat Priests, they were still very skilled in the general purification ceremony. Through Jimmy's vision, he could see that within the purification range, there was energy flow similar to the holy light in a church, but he couldn't feel anything unusual whatsoever. It was similar to the purification ceremony done by Priest White at St. Andrew's Church, where energy passed freely through his body and dispersed, without any sense of retention.
On the contrary, the other two injured Priests seed to be in great pain. The most severely wounded Priest even needed Jimmy's slight support, his entire body shaking until the ceremony ended.
The Priest was a tough guy, standing there with a bare torso; blood flowed from the wound on his chest during purification and he did not clean it. Now he just took his black priest robe to wipe the blood around the wound and imdiately arranged for their return to the church.
In fact, the purification this ti was just a temporary solution and not a cure; it was more like a temporary suppression.
Jimmy was also asked to return to the church with them, even though they didn't know much about Jimmy's background. His performance this ti was worth their approach and closeness, as it was almost entirely thanks to Jimmy that the Shadow Beast was taken down. They even avoided being ambushed by the Shadow Beast due to Jimmy's tily warning and shooting. Given the current situation, even if they survived an ambush by chance, they would have missed the opportunity for purification due to severe injuries, leading to unpredictable outcos.
The assistant called Priest Horton. After learning about the devastation on their side, Priest Horton imdiately used the phone to contact others to arrange church affairs to ensure tily handling upon their return.
Jimmy, after receiving the assistant's notification, thought for a mont and decided to call Lambert. After briefly explaining the situation on their side, Jimmy made a request to Lambert, asking the bureau to arrange a helicopter to quickly bring them back to the church.
In reality, Jimmy knew his situation well. Based on his communication with the Priests, it was basically confird that although he had so abrasions from the Shadow Beast, he had not been infected like the Priests. There were certain aspects he couldn't explain for now, but going to the church to check and undergo further purification was necessary, so arriving at the church sooner would be beneficial.
Lambert simply confird which church Jimmy wanted to go to and then agreed to his request. Ten minutes later, a dical rescue helicopter was already airborne, flying to the coordinates given by Jimmy.
The dical helicopter did not land directly at the hospital but instead landed on a grassy area next to the church. After they disembarked, it imdiately took off again to continue its regular duties. Jimmy accompanied the Priests into the church, where next to the altar so items and a Holy Water Basin had already been prepared, with four Priests of varying ages waiting for them.
