Chapter 801: I think we can talk
Of course it wasn't the mirror that roared.
Not to mention that Panda didn't punch at the mirror at all, even if he threw his fist at the mirror with all his strength, the sound of the mirror breaking would only be crisp and pleasant, and it couldn't be as dull as thunder.
The source of the sound is the sound of the panda's fist breaking through the air. Or to be more precise, the sound of his fist breaking through the air was amplified by Alphin's barrier.
Hearing this sound effect, the Li'an family was stunned, and they couldn't help but start worrying about their house.
Although they are not the kind of experts who have experienced many fights, they still know the common sense that "the heavier the fist, the louder the sound". Master Xiong's punches are so loud, how heavy should his punches be?
Although the punch doesn't seem to be very fast and heavy, listen to the sound! Do you find it unpleasant or heavy?
It was clearly a blast!
This blast of thunder hits the mirror, and the mirror is of course finished, but even if its remaining power is only half, it is enough to kill the wall along with it!
Fortunately, things were not that bad. Although Master Xiong raised his fist, his fist neither hit the mirror nor the wall. In fact, his fist hit the air at about one hand's height above the mirror.
It looked like there was nothing there until he punched.
And when his fist reached there, a cloud of black air suddenly appeared, like a human face, it opened its mouth very wide, as if it was about to scream terribly, and it seemed to want to The incoming fist was swallowed.
However, it does nothing.
Because the punch hit it exactly a little above its mouth, probably between the nose and the mouth, which is the position of the "people". Just one punch turned it into a cloud of scattered smoke, and even the shrill screams that seemed to be released only opened a small head and were strangled invisibly.
Panda and the others are not surprised at all. They are just an evil spirit. If they didn't need to perform a show to impress the Li'an family, and Panda had said beforehand that they wanted a peaceful solution, let alone Panda or Alfion , even Loma can take out a battle axe with sacred and evil-breaking effects, and give it a head.
After the panda threw this punch, it stood still and waited quietly for the evil spirit to recover. Sure enough, after about four or five seconds, the scattered black gas reassembled and turned into that human face.
Compared with just now, it seems to be calmer, at least it no longer opens its mouth indiscriminately.
"Looks like you've recovered a little bit of sanity," Panda said. "In that case, I think we can talk."
Before he finished speaking, the black gas turned into a sharp arrow and flew towards his chest, as if he wanted to shoot him through.
The Li'an family screamed again.
The panda sighed and swung his fists quickly, accompanied by a thunderous sound, smashing the evil spirit into a mass of black gas again.
Two consecutive loud noises echoed over the town. Almost everyone heard the sound, and they came one after another, but were stopped at the door by the servants of Li'an's house.
There are not too many powerful characters in this small town. In the face of the Li'an family, who are still knights, no one can really rush in to see what happens.
So they can only surround the door, tiptoe and crane their necks, like a flock of geese fighting for food. Anxious and screaming constantly.
"what happened?"
"What happened to old Li'an's house? Is something exploding?"
"My God! Did Thor come to their house?"
"They must be working on alchemy, and only alchemy always explodes."
...
Obviously, these guesses are incorrect and far from the truth.
Of course, there are people in Mutter who know the truth, such as the bodyguard and bartender of a pub.
"Hi, Barbarian. Did you hear any noise?"
Arbach, who was resting after finishing his work, ignored Alex's conversation, turned over, and continued to sleep soundly.
This big man with barbarian blood has always been able to eat and sleep. When he is full and sleepy, let alone the thunderous roar, even if there is a thunderous roar next to him, he will never wake up.
Alex didn't have this ability. He couldn't sleep because of the constant noise, so he had to get up and walked into the store.
"What's going on outside?" he asked. "Did a war break out just after I slept for half a night? Are there catapults smashing boulders at the city wall?"
"No, it's very safe outside." The bartender Serin, who was changing shifts with him, said with a smile, "From the direction of the sound, I guess it should be Master Xiong and the others who are exorcising at Li'an's house."
Alex was stunned for a moment, then ran upstairs quickly, climbed to the large platform on the roof for drying clothes, and looked in the direction of Li'an's house.
Sure enough, a large group of people were surrounding Li'an's house, looking up.
Although he also couldn't see the situation of Li'an's family from him, it was enough.
"Oh my god! The legendary exorcism is actually like this?" He widened his eyes in surprise and muttered to himself, "I thought it would be to draw a strange circle on the ground, and then let Helen sit in the circle. He didn't sleep all night, Master Xiong and the others recited weird spells around him, and sprinkled rice and salt on him one by one... Could it be that the exorcism stories I've heard before are all lies?"
The same question is also rising from the hearts of the Li'an family.
Before today, their understanding of the exorcist and their speculation about the behavior of "exorcism" were roughly the same as Alex's, but Master Xiong's approach completely subverted their impression of the exorcist in their hearts. .
The exorcist didn't chant any spells at all, and didn't use any rice, salt, or decorations containing mana. From beginning to end, he only used his fists.
Every time he punched, he smashed the evil spirit that was weird and terrifying at first glance, but he didn't mean to destroy it. Instead, every few times he smashed the opponent, he would stop and say "Are you calmer now? Would you like to talk?"
What exactly did he want to talk to the evil spirits? Can evil spirits still communicate? Or maybe this Master Xiong wants to subdue the evil spirit and make him his assistant?
...It seems possible if you think about it carefully. There is a legend that a sage king with ten wives subdued seventy-two evil spirits, and with the help of the power of evil spirits, he accomplished many great things.
But, that is the wise king! The difference between the wise king and the exorcist is too great!
However, as the process of being scattered - restored - scattered again and again, the evil spirits seem to have gradually recovered their senses. Finally, after being broken up again and re-established, it stayed above the mirror and did not attack like before.
The panda also didn't move, and looked at it.
The entire living room of Li'an's house was quiet, as if you could hear the sound of a needle falling to the ground.
After an unknown amount of time, the voice of the evil spirit rang in the living room.
"Exorcist, what exactly do you want to talk to me about?"
