The live-stream audience was clamoring for the cameraman to quickly follow, telling him to forget whether it was real or fake, just go!
In a moment of hesitation, the cameraman moved forward, but as soon as Scarlett Jennings was out of the camera’s range, she swiftly pulled out a Clear Breeze Charm.
With the gentle arrival of a breeze, stepping as if upon the wind, Scarlett Jennings’s figure vanished at the end of the long street in the blink of an eye.
Scarlett Jennings directly went to a nearby deserted courtyard, without hesitation, she began to construct a Talisman Array.
Sophie Harper followed closely, and just as she was about to speak, she sensed the gathering Shadow Energy continuously converging towards them.
"Ghosts! There are ghosts!"
Sophie Harper exclaimed next to Scarlett Jennings, her voice filled with panic yet seemingly tinged with unnamed excitement.
Scarlett Jennings couldn’t help but glance at Sophie Harper.
After all, having been a Baby Ghost for a hundred years, she didn’t believe that Sophie had never seen a ghost before.
Feeling the Shadow Energy gathering around them, ghostly figures began to reveal themselves one after another.
It was broad daylight, yet they were unafraid of the luminance.
Certainly, these were not your average newly-formed ghosts.
Scarlett Jennings had no choice but to abandon the half-constructed Talisman Array and prepared to fight, holding a Yellow Talisman in hand.
First, deal with these forcefully summoned Shadow Souls, then capture the person behind this.
However, as she was about to move, she saw Sophie Harper drift up to her; Sophie’s slender but tall figure turned its back to Scarlett and landed gently.
"Master Jennings, you continue setting up the Array, leave these minor ghosts to me."
Scarlett Jennings raised an eyebrow, only to see Sophie Harper turning her head to give her a sly smile,
"I’ll fight the ghosts for you, and in return, you take me as your Ghost Servant. Deal?"
Scarlett Jennings was about to say she didn’t agree, but Sophie Harper didn’t wait to listen; in an instant, her figure darted like an arrow towards the converging ghost figures.
Scarlett Jennings’ outstretched hand failed to stop the Ghost.
All that was seen was Sophie Harper plunging into the midst of the ghosts, slapping them with her hand as soon as she encountered one.
The slapping sounds echoed continuously within the throng of ghosts.
With Ghost Energy characteristic of a Big Ghost concentrated in her palm, the heads of ghosts hit by her slaps were knocked askew, and their ghostly energies were greatly dispersed.
Soon, the ghost crowd was filled with wails and howls of misfortune.
When Evander Simpson arrived with his sword in hand, what he saw was precisely this chaotic scene of ghosts being thrashed.
His heart skipped a beat, not understanding how all these ghosts had suddenly gathered here.
Even during the recent Ghost Festival, when the Ghost Gate was wide open, they had not seen such a spectacle at their observatory.
Seeing Scarlett Jennings in the midst, Evander Simpson didn’t think twice; he attached a talisman to the drama crew’s sword and dripped his fingertip yang blood onto it.
He slashed through several ghosts and quickly rushed to Scarlett Jennings’ side.
"Scarlett Jennings! What’s going on here?!"
"Someone used a Ghost Killing Array against me."
They locked onto her using her Fate Chart and gathered high-level ghosts from the surrounding area to besiege her.
But their purpose was certainly not to take her life with these ghosts.
Rather, it was simply to weaken her Spiritual Power.
Upon hearing about the Ghost Killing Array, Evander Simpson was visibly shocked, but he quickly regained his composure. Glancing at the half-laid Array behind her, as if understanding something, he hurriedly said,
"Leave this place to me and the Big Ghost, continue setting up your Array!"
"No need."
But Scarlett Jennings had no intention of leaving the current situation in their hands. She conjured a Purple Talisman from her hand, intending for a quick and decisive battle.
The gathering of so many Underworld Specters was certainly no good for the people in the movie city.
As Evander Simpson cut through the attacking ghosts, he glanced over at Scarlett Jennings, and upon seeing the purple Soul-binding Talisman in her hand, envy and jealousy almost spilled out from his eyes.
High-level Purple Talisman!!!
And a Soul-binding Talisman at that!
