Chapter 1955: Let Me Help You

Activating Elementary Sound Wave, Luke soon found a target — Sister Mary, who was 73 years old.
Luke’s thoughts flashed, and the old nun gave him Anna Esseker’s name: Sister Bell.
What puzzled Luke was that Sister Bell didn’t live with the rest of the nuns, but in a secluded room deep in the convent.
This room was initially a place for nuns to meditate or to punish nuns who broke the rules.
Thus, only the two oldest nuns here and the head of the convent knew about Sister Bell.
It was the previous head who had told Sister Bell to meditate in seclusion there.
Sister Mary also said that Sister Bell had given everything to God and was the staunchest believer.
Luke had a strange expression on his face. Based on the files left behind by the psychiatric hospital, this Anna Esseker didn’t seem to be this sort of person.
He walked into a secret passage which had a very even floor. However, the surroundings gradually turned cold and damp.
This was the entrance to the bottom of the hill behind the convent.
The corridor was 1.5 meters wide and only lit by a few dim electric lamps.
There were all sorts of crosses along the way which cast sharp shadows in the passage, making it even darker and stranger.
Luke canceled his stealth mode and revealed Big Dipper’s face as he continued forward.
The number one scapegoat king absolutely wouldn’t back down!
In certain situations, the opponent should know who was going to send them packing.
After 50 meters, he reached an old wooden door at the end of the passage.
A blade flashed through the gap in the door, and the latch behind it was broken.
Luke sheathed his longsword and pushed the door open. He was as calm as if he were at home.
Inside was a round room with a low roof.
That was normal. After all, it was an old place built into the foot of the hill.
Directly opposite the room was a cross with an effigy of Jesus on it.
Below it was a row of white candles that glowed dimly.
Hm, it had the right atmosphere. Luke looked at the nun who was kneeling and praying in front of the cross.
“Anna Esseker.” He greeted her.
The woman trembled. A moment later, she slowly got up and turned around to reveal the face of an old woman who looked vaguely like the picture of Anna Esseker that was on file.
She asked in a hoarse voice “Who are you?”
Luke said, “It doesn’t matter who I am. I just want to ask you, do you know a ghost who can kill people through a mirror?”
Anna trembled, as if in fear. “She… she’s bewitched you!”
He found the right person so quickly! Luke chuckled inwardly. “No, you can think of me as a… Hm, as a demon hunter who specializes in hunting these monsters.”
Anna was stunned. “You were sent by the Vatican?”
Luke shook his head calmly. “The Vatican entrusted this mission to me.”
Anna: “What?”
She had never heard of the Vatican entrusting such a mission to… someone like this?
But she was also uncertain. Had the times changed? Did exorcists nowadays wear knight armor instead of priest robes?
Luke, however, wasn’t interested in wasting any more time. He used Pheromone Control and Real Dream. “Okay, tell me where that thing came from.”
Anna said, “I… I don’t know. It’s just that my father bought me a doll called Annabelle back then, and a lot of strange things happened at home. Later, someone said that I had mental issues and sent me to a psychiatric hospital for treatment.”
Luke’s interest was piqued. “Why did all the patients in the hospital die?”
Anna said, “They put me in an electric chair surrounded by mirrors in a room, and said that they could treat me. Then, Annabelle was forced out of my body and into the mirrors. The people around me suddenly went crazy and started fighting each other. It wasn’t until the next day that a priest brought me out and sent me here.”
It seemed this was the connection. “So, the ghost is that Annabelle doll? What’s her story?”
Anna said, “I only know her by that name. She was once a little girl.”
Luke waited for a few seconds, but didn’t hear anything else. He asked in surprise, “That’s it?”
Anna lowered her head helplessly. “That’s all I know.”
Pondering for a moment, Luke asked, “Then why are you locked up here?”
Anna shook her head. “I live here. The priest and the convent head said that if I leave, Annabelle might find me and control me again.”
Luke cupped his chin in his hand, as if he was thinking about something.
“Where’s the Annabelle doll you mentioned?” he suddenly asked.
This time, Anna hesitated for a long while. “I haven’t been back since I was sent to the psychiatric hospital. Maybe… it’s still at home?”
Luke said, “Okay, give me your family information.”
A moment later, Luke closed the door again, walked out of the passage, and flew into the sky.
At that moment, the convent in the mountains was enveloped in the bright morning sun, and looked especially peaceful.
He looked down at it with a playful smile. This… was getting interesting!
Miss Esseker, let me help you escape your suffering as soon as possible!?As the thought flashed through his head, Luke slowly sped up and flew toward the more remote mountains in the northeast.
Anna Esseker’s house was in that direction. There were indeed a few old houses on the satellite map, and there were signs of activity.
Luke cruised stealthily for more than ten minutes.
Looking at one place which looked like a haunted house, he entered stealthily and used Real Dream on a man in his fifties.
This person was Anna’s brother, Tom Esseker, a farmer who lived a reclusive life here.
Tom didn’t resist and explained everything, as if he were talking out loud to himself.
Luke didn’t appear in front of him. He went straight to the basement and found a glass cabinet in one corner.
In the cabinet was a doll of a little girl in a lace dress.
It had dark spots on its cheeks. The smile on its face was very strange.
Standing in front of the glass cabinet, Luke leaned in for a closer look.
In fact, his gaze quickly moved from the doll to the glass cabinet itself, which actually possessed a faint trace of the power of faith.
This was very rare nowadays.
There were too few devout believers and priests in modern society. Most church crosses and holy water didn’t even have a trace of faith.
This glass might not have been anything much 100 years ago, but it could now be considered an exorcism tool.
If someone who really knew their stuff chanced upon this thing, they would be willing to spend millions of dollars to buy it.
