North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 272 Faith (additional update)

Roland took out the wine, took a look at it, and put it on the table by the door.

Roland: "Sit down, you must have something going on, tell me."

Jimmy sat on the sofa, took off his cowboy hat and put it on the coffee table, "I do have something to ask. Roland, you said before that you have been killing demons everywhere, right?"

Roland nodded, and Jimmy continued: "I recently encountered a very strange case. In a villa, four people suffocated at the same time and died of cardiac arrest. Forensic medicine could not detect the cause of death."

Roland: "This kind of thing is very common, and then what?"

Jimmy: "Before they died, I communicated with them that an emerald necklace was missing from the homeowner's safe. I went to assist in the investigation. After doing a preliminary investigation, I left the villa. The next day they all

died.

There is a basement in that villa, and there may be something unusual in it, something like smoke."

Roland: "If it's smoke, it might be a vengeful spirit. Then it's not difficult to deal with it. You should be able to deal with this kind of vengeful spirit. I remember that there is an official demon-killing team."

Jimmy: "I have never heard of it. This is the second time I have encountered such a supernatural thing. The first time was when I attended an exorcism ceremony performed by a priest in a church in Little Rock. That was the first time I saw smoke.

Emerged from a man and was later purified by a priest.

When I encountered this kind of thing this time, I contacted the priest before, and he gave me the contact information of a demon hunter. I learned some knowledge about demons and evil spirits from him, but I did not have a demon-killing weapon.

, there is still no way to deal with these demons and evil spirits."

Jimmy pulled out his revolver, put it on the coffee table and pushed it to Roland, "Can you help me see if my gun can be regarded as a demon-killing weapon? In the past two years, this gun has killed thirty people.

A prisoner."

Roland did not take Jimmy's gun, but looked at Jimmy and shook his head, "Jimmy, you have the ability to kill demons. I said before that I took Jimmy to kill demons for the first time a few years ago.

Jimmy already has the ability to kill demons."

Jimmy frowned: "I didn't feel it at all. Apart from seeing the smoke-like evil spirits, I had never done anything to kill demons. When you took Jimmy to slay demons, what kind of weapon did Jimmy use?

"

Roland: "It's just an ordinary revolver." After Roland said that, he stood up and walked into the next room, took out a revolver and gave it to Jimmy.

Roland: "This was the training gun he used at that time. Although he took away the gun used to slay demons in the end, that one was just bought casually in a gun store and is no different from this one."

Jimmy took the gun and opened the magazine. There was no bullet inside. Then he looked at the barrel from the front. The gun had been used too frequently, and the rifling had been severely worn. It could be said to be scrapped.

Roland continued: "What kills the devil is not the gun or the bullet itself, but faith. Although he was full of hatred in his heart at the time, hatred is also a kind of power. With the blessing of faith, ordinary bullets can also injure or even kill.

demon."

Jimmy looked up at Roland: "Faith? Can ordinary weapons also be used?"

Roland nodded: "It's just that the effect is less effective, not completely ineffective. Of course, demon-slaying weapons with demon-breaking properties are more effective. I have seen the weapons of demon hunters and church priests in this world, and most of them are

They are weapons blessed by faith, and a few are blessed by the ability of demons or evil spirits."

Jimmy: "I can't get such a weapon now, how can I add faith to my own gun?"

Roland: "This is not something you can just talk about. You were able to do it before, probably for revenge, but now, without this kind of emotional support, it should be difficult for you to do it."

Jimmy was a little speechless. In his previous life, he was very angry and hated the devil because he witnessed his father's death. Where does the current Jimmy's hatred come from?

Jimmy: "According to the demon hunters, weapons that have killed many people can also be used as demon-killing weapons. My gun has also killed a lot of people. Does it have the ability to destroy demons?"

Roland: "It's difficult. Firearms are usually injected with energy in a special way to have the ability to eliminate demons, or they are made of holy objects."

Roland picked up his gun from the table next to him, "These two guns are made of King Arthur's steel sword. The King's Sword itself is made of a sacred object. It is strong and will not wear out. I have used it for several times.

Ten years. This is a weapon made from sacred objects."

Jimmy reached out and took Roland's gun. It looked like a Remington 1875, but when it was first manufactured, it did not use the traditional fixed cylinder position of the 1875, but replaced it with a left-tilt cylinder. There were no bullets in the cylinder. Jimmy took a look at the revolver upside down.

The rifling, after using the gun for decades, the rifling is still clear and no traces of wear were found. It is true as Roland said, it will not wear out.

Jimmy returned the gun to Roland, "Roland, there is one more thing I need to confirm with you. Do the demons or evil spirits you have seen before have white light spots on them?"

Roland shook his head: "I haven't found this situation. Please tell me more specifically."

Jimmy: "The first time I saw the exorcism ceremony, after the smoke floated from the person's body, it gathered into a nearly human shape, and then three moving white spots appeared on its body. After the exorcism ceremony was completed,

After the evil spirit died, the white spots also disappeared."

Roland: "I've never seen it before. If you're not mistaken, it's because you have some special ability, but you've never said it before."

Jimmy took a few deep breaths, thought about it, and finally decided to speak out.

Jimmy: "Speaking of special powers, I do have one. I can sense objects behind walls, just like a radar scan, and see the outlines of buildings and objects."

Roland: "Perspective?"

Jimmy: "Yes and no. Generally speaking, perspective means that you can see the details of an object, but I can only perceive the outline, such as human figures, furniture, boxes, etc. I can judge what I perceive through the outline.

, but I couldn’t see the details, such as who was behind the wall, what clothes he was wearing, what he had on him, etc., I couldn’t sense it at all.”

Roland: "The Shining, you have the same psychic power as Jack. His Shining is the ability to predict, and you are the ability to perceive objects. Unexpectedly, we have lived together for 8 years, and I have not noticed that he has this ability at all.

ability.”

Roland stood up, put the gun back on the table next to him, and sat back down.

Roland: "I think you should be able to give your guns and bullets blessings with your abilities. The Shining is an innate telepathic ability. Since you have the Shining, you should be able to do it. No, you must

It can be done.”
