Chapter five hundred and twentieth it's time
At a crossroads at midnight, Lin Xuan stood there quietly, as if waiting for someone. Not long after, the nearby space twisted and two figures appeared from the void. It was Crowley, and an unknown demon. Of course, for Lin Xuan, it was just a glance that the guy was the guy who hurt Caitlin in the square.
"It seems that it's not time for us to meet now, right? Is there any problem?" Crowley asked. However, he looked a little uneasy, because he probably guessed what Lin Xuan meant.
"Since you brought him here, you should have understood what I mean. Crowley, I want to know who gave you the right to change my script."
"Pazuzu didn't mean it, she just added a little bit of scenes temporarily. And the final effect was pretty good, right? It didn't cause any substantial losses. So..."
"Didn't cause any loss? Is this your reason? He hurt Caitlin without my consent, both physically and mentally. I am really strange. Do I seem to be intimidating? A dog dares to go against my will." As soon as he finished speaking, the demon named Pazuzu on the side suddenly screamed and fell to the ground, twitching all over. It seemed extremely painful. A miserable green flame appeared faintly on him.
"You..." Crowley seemed to want to say something. But in the end he didn't speak. The demons cannot be killed in the human world, and they will only be driven to hell. But he soon realized something was wrong. Because in his perception, Pazuzu's breath was constantly weakening.
It is not weakness after injury, but an essential weakness. It is as if its life is burning out quickly.
"Wait a minute, I promise I won't have another next time. He was just an impulse." Crowley wanted to excuse his subordinates, but Lin Xuan was unmoved at all.
"A moment of impulse, Crowley, you are a smart man, I thought you could at least give a better excuse."
"They are demons. This is their nature, what do you want them to do? This is the result of my efforts to suppress them. They cannot restrain their vicious nature."
"I can't overcome it? That's just that you're just responsible. And I don't need to be unable to restrain my collaborators. This is the last chance, no next time. Restrain your nature, or die."
The miserable green flame suddenly ignited, and Pazuzu lost all his voice just by letting out a half scream. A demon was killed in the human world. This was the ability that only those angels had. Crowley's face suddenly paled.

Woodtown is now the most popular place in the world. Caitlyn returned to her long-lost home. Although this was planned, the feeling of going home still makes people feel a little moved.
Unexpectedly, the various media interviews and other images did not appear. It was obvious that the government departments intervened secretly, and for some reason they created a quiet environment for Caitlin.
“It’s different from what we thought.”
"Yes, it seems that some people in the government are starting to get restless. They want to seek more. Maybe they are trying to find ways to get in touch with us now?"
"What do they want to do?"
"If you think about it carefully, you should be clear, Caitlyn. They want to be simple, just maintain their rights. Because of the dark creatures and our appearance, the power agencies in this world are obviously facing a reshuffle. Whether you admit it or not, we have occupied a significant position in this reshuffle. Now someone wants to take advantage of our power."
“What does this mean to us?”
"This is actually an opportunity to speed up our plan. Although those people cannot compare with the old consortiums hidden behind the scenes, they also have quite a lot of resources in their hands. Although it is just an open resource, it is exactly what we need. Wait, they will appear soon."
Caitlin lived in the town as if nothing had happened. Until one day, some people finally couldn't help it.
"Ms. Caitlin, it's a bit strange to say that. But we need to meet the people behind you."
"Interesting, he said you'll come to me. Do you know what we want?"
"I don't know. But I believe that's a grand goal about saving the world and that's something we can do to help you."
"What do you want?"
"We hope that this world will never be watched by those dark eyes again."
Caitlin was stunned for a moment before she understood what the other party meant. These people actually wanted to completely clean up the consortiums hidden behind the scenes.
"Do you know what this means? Those people have the ability to start wars anywhere in the world. In a sense, they have the world."
"But it's not a problem for you at all, right? I've seen a secret video. A human called Purple Electric. He has an incredible speed. I've calculated that if he kills, he can massacre all the soldiers of the entire Pacific Fleet in a few minutes. He is a more dangerous existence than nuclear weapons. But as far as I know, he is yours, right? You may not have many people. But you have the strongest force in the world."
"And what? Can you get those guys together and let us all in one go?"
"There is no possibility. In fact, at any time, they will not really gather together. Because as long as they dare to do this, we will dare to throw a nuclear bomb there. They know in their hearts how much power is resisting them. Therefore, they cherish their lives extremely."
"What should we do, we find them and kill them. And then all the benefits belong to you? That's your sincerity?"
"No, we will pay first."
…………………………
Times Square is still fermenting. Almost all media are jointly promoting the follow-up of this matter. Unexpectedly, no media has made negative comments about Caitlin. Almost all media have promoted Caitlin to an unprecedented position, either openly or secretly.
Even in the eyes of most people, a way of thinking has been formed, she is the savior. At the same time, the attacks of dark creatures continue. The government's army and the newly established special operations team have made certain achievements. But it is still an old problem. Once dark creatures in the energy system are involved, they will be forced. After all, no matter how powerful gunpowder weapons are, they cannot kill a ghost.
The casualties of the people occur from time to time, and they are getting worse. This makes all the people miss the figure holding the sword of flame even more.
The long sword left in the square was taken away by the government departments who arrived. The sword contained a spell from Lin Xuan. The one imitated was the spell of the Supreme King's Sword in the magician world. The sword holder can automatically obtain the skill bonus of the sword master and instantly become a sword master.
The government chose many people to hold this sword. One of them could even "summon" the flames like Caitlin. But it was obvious that they did not fully master the magic sword. Even the melon-eating crowd could easily see that the strength of these sword-holding people was far inferior to Caitlin.
When the fourth sword-holder died at the hands of the dark creature, the angry crowd could no longer bear it. They asked the government to give an explanation. Why didn't the female warrior come out? Because almost everyone discovered it. After Caitlin retired, the superpowers who originally worked together to fight the dark creatures disappeared one after another. They seemed to be headed by Caitlin, or were worried about her. This also enlarged the masses' dissatisfaction with the government.
They stubbornly believed that it was the incompetence of the government that forced the great warrior away. Now the people have lost their protection, but the government has done nothing. The unknown reporter was once again pulled out to whip the body. In fact, after the square incident, he lost his job.
Originally, the editor-in-chief of the newspaper hoped to use his popularity to hype. When the newspaper was thrown on paint and smashed glass, he could tolerate it. He thought it was a sign of high popularity. But as the situation became more and more intense, the people began to throw incendiary bombs at the newspaper. At this time, the entire newspaper could not bear it. They collectively demanded to dismiss the unknown reporter. Otherwise, they would resign collectively.
So the reporter was kicked out of the newspaper without any suspense. However, unexpectedly, the angry crowd did not rush up and beat him up. They just kept harassing him, interfering with his job search, smashing his glass at night, etc. All attacks avoid real harm to him or his family. They just used some invisible oppression and public opinion to condemn him.
This was obviously the work of the government. They made extremely precise arrangements for the handling of this reporter. As the initiator, he obviously could not live well. But he could never let the public go. Because there was no doubt that as long as he walked on the street, he might even be beaten to death by the angry crowd. Once he died of a bad life, this account would involve Caitlin anyway.
And he also had a wife and a daughter. After his death, the harm caused to his family, two truly innocent people, was unparalleled. This situation would bring a stain on Caitlyn's reputation. In any case, they would not allow the person to die. There was even a team of secret agents who were secretly protecting him.
As time went by, the incident not only did not subside, but instead became more and more intense. Finally, the government could not bear the pressure of public opinion. They publicly announced that they would invite Caitlin back and form a department dedicated to fighting dark creatures with her as the core.
The next day, thousands of people gathered in front of Caitlin's door, and they petitioned together, hoping that Caitlin could pick up the magic sword again and protect the world. Caitlin did not respond, but just stood there with some struggle, looking at a loss until a little girl stepped forward.
It was a little girl of seven or eight years old. She walked to Caitlyn with a bouquet of flowers.
"Sister, my mother was eaten by the monster. They said you can defeat the monsters. Please go and beat them away? Then no other children will lose their mother..."
The little girl prepared in advance. But what she said was real. Countless psychologists and sociologists discussed it repeatedly. Finally, the decision was made that only the simplest scenario was enough to arouse the emotional resonance of everyone. Caitlin's comeback would become natural. At that moment, Caitlin could not even tell whether it was acting or showing her true feelings. She only knew that she was crying.
"Sister promised you to kill all the monsters and will not let any child lose his mother again."
Thousands of people cheered together, and countless people following this scene through various media also cheered. At this moment, Caitlin only felt the sword in the lake connected to her mind tremble slightly.
She slowly stretched out her hand, and a dreamy color appeared in her hand. The colorfulness was not enough to describe it. It was a light that gathered all the colors in the world.
The light flowed and gathered in her hands, and finally formed a transparent long sword. The gorgeous colorful light gradually disappeared and finally became a pure crystal color, even colorless. However, most of the masses could still see that an invisible long sword was holding in Caitlin's hand, because the sword had their power.
"In the name of Victory and the Sword of Oath, I call on all the warriors hidden in the darkness. It's time to stand up, it's time to resist, and it's time to end it all."
Her voice was not loud, but it was clearly reached in everyone's mind. All the humans who contributed a power of faith to the sword in the lake received Caitlin's will. This time, she stood in this world with an open and upright attitude.

"Ms. Caitlin, no matter what you are going to do? I think it should be quick. We are now facing the counterattack of those old forces. In the past week, three of our members have died in assassination. They have relaxed all restrictions and started to use any means. Our strength is not enough to face them head-on. Now, I think we should receive a certain reward."
"The last question, I know you are the representatives of emerging consortiums. So, how do you guarantee that you will not become, what kind of existence your current opponents do?"
"This doesn't need to be considered. Because I think you will be optimistic about us. Wouldn't you?"
"Haha, maybe. I will deal with those guys. You guys are now using all the resources to prepare for an impact."
"What does the impact mean?"
