New Gods of North America

Time flies and it's evening again.

Although there were many people in the main house of the manor at this time, it still seemed quiet.

After Peter tried the poison one by one,

At this moment, Wayne, Inissa and Lina were pushing a food cart to deliver dinner to the main members of the Schultz family in batches.

At this time, people were deployed at various key locations in the main house.

Each position is basically staffed by people brought by Tom Hagen, people from the local parish, and detectives from the detective agency, allocated in a 1:1:1 ratio.

Even the birds Doug raised were not idle at this moment. They were scattered all over the manor, and the parrots were arranged to be at the mill.

At present, the only people who can move relatively freely in the main house are Wayne and his three companions, Tom Hagen and David Mills.

Mr. Schultz was placed in the study as a key target and was guarded by David Mills himself.

Then Mr. Schultz also carried a revolver with him for self-defense - although it could also be used to hit people, it was mainly for him to try to make a sound in time when he encountered a situation.

Seeing that Mr. Schultz was a little too nervous, Wayne chatted with him for a while and comforted him not to worry too much.

This is to prevent his hands from shaking too much and shooting one of his own people.

In fact, at this time, Wayne and his team's focus of defense, in addition to the people with unusual behavior in the main house,

and the local clergy of Georgeburg Parish.

After all, the two guys who had "problems" before were both clergymen in the church.

The night deepens,

It seemed as if a dance party was being held in the main house, with candlesticks lit with candles.

If a child passed by the manor at this time, he would be surprised to see the brightly lit but unusually quiet manor house from afar.

I don’t know if some strange urban legends will be born.

Opposite the study is a reception room.

Because I didn't sleep last night, I might have to stay up late tonight and tomorrow night.

After Wayne and Tom Hagen patrolled the main house several times, they stayed inside on standby, taking a nap before taking over their shift in the middle of the night.

As for Inissa, she was dragged by Lina to continue walking around the main house, both to inspect and to look for interesting places.

"Bang!"

Wayne felt that he had not dozed off for long, or perhaps he had just fallen asleep, when he was awakened by a gunshot.

The sound of gunfire quickly broke the peace in the main house.

What followed was the sound of gunfire, noise and warning cries in several places.

Wayne jumped up from the sofa, revolver in hand,

Together with Tom Hagen, who was wearing thick black gloves with gold patterns on his hands, they rushed to the direction where the sound came from.

Then Wayne just walked into the corridor and saw that the area near the study was already bustling with activity.

There were originally three groups of people stationed in the corridor, one at each end and one in the middle.

At this point they had split into two groups and were fighting each other, the whole place turned into a mess.

In the vision of simple lines,

Two spherical areas with a diameter of three meters have been simultaneously deployed at both ends of the corridor.

Although I can guess that there might be problems among the guards of the local church,

But I didn’t expect that there was more than one person with the problem? !

The guards on one side seemed to have discovered something strange in time and were trying to stop the other side from approaching the study. Another team member wanted to provide support but was a little hesitant.

On the other side, it seemed that the attackers had successfully launched a "sneak attack", and the battle situation for that group of people became two against one.

"Try to keep your distance and avoid fighting. Be careful not to be affected by the other party's extraordinary abilities!"

Wayne shouted to remind them, then chose to run towards the study first.

Tom Hagen then turned around and walked to the side where the situation seemed to be even worse.

I stretched my head and looked into the study.

Wayne dodged a slap from David Mills and saw Mr. Schultz reaching into the desk with a gun.

Thinking that there shouldn't be a big problem here, Wayne gave them a slight signal.

Then we went to other places to provide support.

With the previous experience of Roy Stampler and the altar priest, the situation at this time was indeed a little restrictive.

Apart from the detective agency, the remaining guards were all from the church, and they might just be "innocents" controlled by extraordinary abilities.

Unless the situation is urgent, you should not shoot someone to death or cause serious injury.

But if you want to get close to the uniform, you have to worry about whether you will be "controlled" instead.

So Wayne just turned around and came out of the study,

One of them, with golden eyes and the "spherical area" guard, had already shaken off the people around him and ran towards the study.

Wayne wanted to raise his hand and shoot him, but then he thought it was not appropriate.

So Wayne saw Tom Hagen and a guard rushing over here, so he turned the muzzle of his gun downward and fired a shot at the floor in front of the attacker's footsteps, slightly slowing down the attacker's movement.

Then Wayne turned back into his study and locked the door.

David Mills noticed that Wayne turned his back and returned to the study, and immediately became alert again.

Wayne quickly waved his hand at him and said, "Go protect Mr. Schultz. I'll guard the door here. I'll try to minimize casualties among my own people, but if they get too close, I'll have to take action."

Soon, there was a knock on the heavy door of the study.

It seemed like someone was trying to break the door violently.

The first time it hit, it felt like the other person's body was hitting the door hard, and dust began to appear around the door.

The second time it felt like it was kicked with the foot. The force point felt like the door lock, and the door seemed to be a little "dented" at some moment.

Wayne kept his distance from the door, preparing to shoot.

If the enemy broke into the study, it would be reasonable for them to be shot, whether they were from the cathedral or the local church.

Unfortunately, the other party obviously didn't have this luck.

After two collisions, the door of the study became quiet, but the sound of fighting could be vaguely heard outside the door.

It wasn't the mixed sound of a physical fight.

Instead, it was the sound of several consecutive limbs hitting each other with power and rhythm.

Then,

It is the sound of a large mammal weighing about 160 pounds being thrown to the ground.

Wayne turned his head and looked at Mr. Schultz who was protected by David Mills in the corner. He felt that he was still safe.

Therefore, he ignored the noise outside the door and waited quietly for the result.

There should be three groups of guards outside, nine people in total, plus Tom Hagen.

There are two people who use control abilities like Roy Stampler, and one who seems to have been "hit".

So the best case scenario is that there are seven against three outside, then it should not be difficult to subdue all the attackers,

The worst case scenario is that ten guys with golden eyes might rush in and all become enemies.

Wayne was thinking as he refilled his revolver.

Then he held a holy water bottle in his left hand, ready to infuse the bottle with spiritual power.

Fortunately, after the noise in the corridor died down,

There were two unhurried knocks on the door, and Tom Hagen's calm voice, "Open the door, we have the man under control."

To be on the safe side, Wayne ignored him at first.

Finally, after Willy came over and unlocked the door, they saw that several church members had been tied up outside the door, and only then did Wayne and the others put down their weapons obediently.
