The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 461

Chapter 461: Chapter 461: She’s Hurt Again

Scarlett Jennings stood at the edge of the barrier, her sword in hand. The sudden rise in her aura left everyone present speechless.

Gregory Xander and Evander Simpson moved without a word, each taking their place beside her.

Victor Quintero pulled out a long whip from his side, its body wrapped with talismans, clearly his personal magic artifact.

As the representative sent by the Security Bureau, he came prepared.

Scarlett Jennings glanced at Daniel Wright. "Officer Wright, those inside are in your hands."

Daniel tightened his grip at his side, replying solemnly,

"Don’t worry."

The four of them stepped out of the barrier together.

As soon as Scarlett stepped beyond the barrier, her grip on the sword tightened suddenly, sensing a familiar presence. But before she could investigate, the evil ghosts outside the barrier had already lunged towards them.

The evil ghosts were born from the Ghost Realm, previously hidden among the players, waiting to mark their chosen "rats." Those marked would become "cat specters," controlled by the Ghost Realm.

The seventeen people who disappeared this time were all hit by evil ghosts and turned into cat specters.

The master of the Ghost Realm used the players to capture the Rat King, intending for the evil ghosts to blend in. If even one evil ghost touched Scarlett Jennings, she would become a cat specter.

But Scarlett had created an array barrier, directly forcing out the evil ghosts hidden among the players.

No matter, they still had a chance!

As the evil ghosts closed in, Scarlett focused, one hand wielding the sword while the other threw out a purple talisman.

Evander immediately recognized it as the purple Soul-binding Talisman from the Ghost Killing Array Scarlett used in her last encounter.

Unlike before, this time Scarlett directly made a one-hand seal, rapidly chanting a spell,

"Red light faint, fate of the Nine Provinces, bind soul, capture the hidden specters."

With her final command, the purple Soul-binding Talisman gleamed, and a massive talisman appeared in the air, pressing down on the evil ghosts before them.

Gregory and Victor were both startled by her unexpected move.

Gregory, in particular, was uneasy. Though he knew she was indeed the talisman master Levi Garrison, still... to casually pull out a high-level purple talisman and even make a one-hand seal.

His own talent was laughable in comparison to hers.

Biting his lip, Gregory stopped watching and charged towards the evil ghosts the talisman had missed, throwing his fist straight at them.

He was a disciple of the Mountain First Sect, skilled in talismanic magic and martial arts!

Shocked by the younger ones, Victor thought about maintaining the Security Bureau’s dignity and quickly whipped the evil ghosts.

The Security Bureau’s dignity had to be upheld by him today!

Scarlett watched as the evil ghosts struggled under the talisman, knowing the Soul-binding Talisman once suppressed the ghosts gathered by the Ghost Killing Array, but in the Ghost Realm, the talisman’s spiritual power was nearly halved.

Combined with the heavy evil qi of the ghosts, the talisman couldn’t hold them for long.

Without hesitation, Scarlett charged at the trapped evil ghosts with her peach wood sword.

Evander, holding his own peach wood sword, followed closely; though it wasn’t a millennia-old thunderstruck wood like Scarlett’s, it was still a treasure passed down from their Clear Breeze Temple.

Soon, the wails and screams of the ghosts echoed.

Sword slashing, fists pounding, whip swinging.

It had been ages since they encountered such formidable opponents.

Who were these four deities of death?!

Every strike seemed to hit their soul bodies, diminishing the ghost energy on them.
