Bryan, Andrew, and Elijah all stood up simultaneously from their seats as they took out their weapons and aid them at the woman—if she could even be called that at the mont.
Robert was the only one who was still seated as he silently looked at the woman as his eyes narrowed, "Hell's spawn!"
The woman was taken aback as she looked at Robert and spoke in a voice that was a mixture of both male and female, "You know quite a lot, don't you?"
Then her yellow eyes lit up as she probed, "Are you one of those Transcendents from the surface world?"
She then carefully scrutinized all four mbers of the Strike Team and licked her lips with her forked red tongue, "That's right! All four of you have high spiritual force compared to others."
The woman then turned to look at Robert again, "Especially you!"
Robert ignored the woman and instead looked at Ricky who was watching everything happen with great enjoynt, not at all phased by the transformation of his 'wife'.
The next mont a bright silver light shone from Robert's brown eyes. The mont Ricky looked into the latter's eyes, he instantly lost consciousness and slamd his head against the table as the teacup he was holding dropped to the floor and shattered.
Rank 2 Spell: Coma Inducent!
This was the upgraded version of the Rank 1 Spell: Sleep Inducent. Through the usage of this Rank 2 spell, it would be easier for Robert to glean more information from Ricky later.
The mont Ricky lost consciousness and slamd his head against the table, Elijah and Andrew aid their steam-powered pistols at the woman and shot without hesitation.
Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang!
Both of them fired three enchanted bullets each, however, none of them hit the target. The woman nimbly dodged all the bullets as she jumped around from one wall to another.
Finally, she jumped to the ceiling and embedded her claws into it as she glared at the mbers of the Strike Team while hanging upside down.
She then deftly crawled across the ceiling—while still hanging upside down—and rushed to another room on the first floor.
Robert got up from his seat and took out a steel handcuff from his pocket. He threw it at Bryan and instructed, "Tie Ricky up and stand guard beside him. , Andrew, and Elijah will take care of that devil."
Bryan snapped out of his daze as he caught the handcuff. Things had happened so quickly that he didn't even realize it until Robert spoke to him.
'Everyone's teamwork is so fluid!' Bryan marveled inwardly as he got up from his chair. He then grabbed Ricky's collar and threw him to the ground.
Bryan then brought Ricky's hands behind him and tied them with the handcuff. After finishing all that, he stood guard beside Ricky and took out Hand Cannon from his underarm holster.
'There is still one more. Now, where is he?' Bryan thought inwardly.
anwhile, in the guest room on the sa floor, a grueso battle was taking place. The woman was riddled with bullet holes, however, her wounds were healing at a fast rate.
She was now in a state of panic as she began to realize that the people she was fighting, as a team, were way stronger than her.
As a devil that was summoned from Hell, she naturally had a strong constitution and in terms of spiritual force, she was close to a Rank 2 Transcendent.
However, her opponent's teamwork and understanding of devils really caught her off guard.
The next mont, Andrew had finished constructing a spell structure in his mind. He then cast the spell in Ancient Hymmnos, "Death Cord!"
After Andrew finished casting the Rank 1 spell, he pointed his hands at the woman. The next mont, dozens of thick ropes made of black energy extended from his palms.
These thick black ropes flew at a fast speed and instantly coiled around the woman's body and strangled her. Only her hideous-looking head was now visible.
The woman snorted in disdain, "Using the dark arts against a devil? How naive!"
However, Andrew simply smirked in return. Beside him, Elijah had already swung his hands and thrown tens of small tallic balls toward the woman.
If looked at closely, one would see that these weren't really tallic balls. Instead, they were tallic bees, the size of a fingernail, made of steel and gears.
Elijah controlled these tallic bees with his spiritual force and made them completely surround the woman, who at this point had freed herself from Andrew's Death Cord.
The reason Andrew had cast this magic spell was that he needed to distract the woman and also buy enough ti for Elijah to throw the tallic bees at her.
After confirming that the bees had surrounded the woman, Elijah chanted in Ancient Hymmnos, "Thunder!"
The next mont, the tens of bees shone with a bright blue light as they began to hum. Then, bolts of electricity that were generated by these bees, zapped the woman.
"Aahhhhhh!!" The woman scread in agony as she was bathed in electricity that burnt her hair and charred her skin black.
After producing the electricity, the tallic bees all turned to ash and fell to the ground. As for the woman, snakes of electrical bolts danced all over her body as she continued to spasm from ti to ti.
Robert took advantage of this opportune mont while the woman was still paralyzed as he stepped forward.
He then took out a bronze circular artifact from his pocket that had runes inscribed on the surface of it and aid it at the woman.
"Blaze!" Robert muttered coldly in Ancient Hymmnos.
The bronze circular disk turned bright orange as it hovered in the air. The next mont it shot out a beam of holy light that completely drowned the woman.
"Aaahhh-" The woman shrieked in pain, however, her voice was cut off as the bright beam of light had completely covered her body and erased her existence from this world within seconds!
After the beam of light dissipated, the only proof of her ever being alive was the white dress that still continued to burn at the place she was standing before.
Andrew and Elijah simultaneously heaved a sigh of relief. The forr then looked at Robert who had just put away the circular artifact and probed, "Light Path Artifact?"
Robert simply nodded.
The next mont the three of them turned around in alarm as they heard the sound of gunshots from the living room where Bryan was currently at.
Bang Bang Bang!
