At this moment, Mingmei still remembered Mu Chen's character... pitiful, weak, and helpless.
Therefore, Mingmei naturally assumed that Da Yao was asking her for help, but now Mingmei was in a bit of a dilemma.
From the perspective of a player or NPC, she indeed had no need to take action.
However, if you consider it from a friend's perspective, and think about how Da Yao always cleans up Lu Xiao Yao's messes every time she appears, Ming Mei's heart softens.
Shouldn't you step in to help your friends when the time is right?
Thinking this, Mingmei didn't show anything on her face, but she already had the talisman that Da Yao had given her earlier in her hand.
She remembered that Da Yao had told her before that this talisman could be used for self-defense, and naturally it could also be used to attack the dead.
If nothing unexpected happens, as long as Mingmei's talisman is directly slapped onto the opponent's forehead, it will cause serious injury.
Martha has never fought Mingmei before, so if she wanted to launch a surprise attack, it would be much easier for her than for Da Yao.
Thinking this, Mingmei quietly moved towards the other person. Mu Chen, who originally wanted to stop Mingmei from doing it herself, also saw Mingmei's actions.
Seeing the eager glint in her eyes, Mu Chen paused.
Then, Mu Chen couldn't help but chuckle softly and withdrew his outstretched hand that he had wanted to use to stop him.
Mu Chen thought, since she wants to, then let's go ahead with it.
Suddenly, Mingmei rushed towards Martha and was instantly close to her!
That speed left not only Masha completely in disbelief, but even Da Yao, who was attacking from the side, was dumbfounded.
She even took a moment to glance at Mu Chen, who was standing not far away.
Dude, what kind of move is that?
Martha had no idea when Mingmei appeared in front of her; she didn't even notice her!
Especially when she saw the talisman in Mingmei's hand so close to her, disbelief still flashed in her eyes!
"How could you, how dare you do such a thing?!"
Even at this point, Martha's questioning did not stop Mingmei from doing what she was doing. Instead, she quickened her pace and slapped the talisman on Mingmei's forehead!
The villain dies from talking too much.
Mingmei always remembered this line her mother made when she read a novel.
Sure enough, it's amazing!
With a deafening roar, a bolt of lightning suddenly exploded in the room, striking Martha directly on the top of her head.
The thunderbolt was like a silver snake, and its power far surpassed that of the talisman itself, which belonged to Da Yao!
Da Yao's pupils dilated in shock. Her talisman felt like throwing a small firecracker at someone, but when it was slapped by Ming Mei, it was like this—is this the difference between an NPC and a player?
"Awesome!!"
The crowd was speechless at the mysterious merchant's sudden action of destroying the evil spirit. Apart from a boast, there seemed to be nothing that could express the surprise that welled up in their hearts!
But before everyone could even celebrate, they saw that Martha, who had been struck by lightning, had not completely lost her fighting ability.
This time, Martha's eyes were filled with malice as she stared at Mingmei. Taking advantage of everyone's momentary lapse in attention, she stretched out her sharp fingers, intending to strangle Mingmei.
However, her movement was caught by Mingmei out of the corner of her eye, and she easily passed by by simply taking a step back.
Martha was unwilling to give up after her failed sneak attack and wanted to step forward again. Seeing this, Mingmei also decided to exorcise the ghost in her own way. However, before she could even raise her hand, the other woman, who had been looking at her with resentment in her eyes just a second ago, suddenly showed a look of great fear and wanted to back away.
Bright and beautiful: ?
Suddenly, Mingmei felt a black figure rush out from behind her with a cool breeze, and a large hand grabbed Martha's head as she tried to retreat.
It was Mu Chen who made the move!
"You've overstepped your bounds," Mu Chen said calmly. A dark gray aura emanated from Martha's body, flowing upwards along her body and into Mu Chen's body through his pale hand.
[Oh my god! Ghost, am I seeing things?! That's ghostly energy?!]
Mingmei was dumbfounded. The game script was set in a proper Western background, so how did this "freak" suddenly appear?
"Wow, does the priest have that ability?"
The crowd, still reeling from Ming Mei's actions, were surprised to see Mu Chen make his move.
"No, I didn't." Yuan Fang had just broken free from that uncomfortable state when he saw Mu Chen make his move. His eyes twitched violently as he denied the surprise of others.
This situation did not last long, and in the end, Masa, who had just been struck by lightning and still had the strength to fight, was completely "absorbed" by Mu Chen.
Even as she disappeared, Martha's eyes remained fixed on Mu Chen, still filled with fear!
"Clatter".
The crisp sound of a whip hitting the ground finally brought everyone back to their senses.
What happened to the promise of being weak, pitiful, and helpless?
Are you even human?!
Everyone couldn't help but raise a profound question, and then they realized, well, it seems that the other person really isn't human.
"Wow, this character is insane! So powerful?" Zhen Po exclaimed incredulously, her eyes wide. "Why don't I have this kind of luck?"
"If you draw it... hehe." As the eldest brother, Zhen Hu never stops undermining others.
"Is it over?" Yuan Fang and the others remained silent for a long time before finally asking this dry question.
"No." Mu Chen's words instantly made everyone's hearts leap into their throats. "Weren't you going to perform a ritual to send these dead souls to the afterlife?"
