Chapter 109

At this moment, Mingmei still remembered Mu Chen's persona... pitiful, weak, and helpless.

Therefore, Mingmei naturally believed that Da Yao was asking her for help, but now Mingmei was also a little embarrassed.

If viewed from the roles of player and NPC, she really didn't need to intervene.

However, if considering it from a friend's point of view, and thinking about how Da Yao always cleaned up Lu Xiaoyao's messes, Mingmei's heart softened.

For the sake of friends, shouldn't one act when needed?

Thinking this, although Mingmei didn't show anything on her face, she already had the talisman Da Yao had given her earlier in her hand.

She remembered Da Yao telling her before that this talisman could be used for self-defense and could naturally attack the undead.

If there were no accidents, Mingmei could directly inflict serious damage by slapping this talisman on the other person's head.

Martha hadn't fought Mingmei before, so it was much easier for her to launch a surprise attack than it was for Da Yao right now.

Thinking this, Mingmei quietly moved towards the other party, and Mu Chen, who originally wanted to stop Mingmei from acting herself, saw Mingmei's movements.

Seeing the eager light flashing in her eyes, Mu Chen paused.

Then, Mu Chen couldn't help but chuckle softly, and retracted his hand that he had stretched out to stop her.

Mu Chen thought, since she wanted to, then let her go.

He saw Mingmei suddenly rush towards Martha, instantly closing in on her!

That speed left Martha in disbelief, and even Da Yao, who was attacking from the side, was dumbfounded.

She even took the time to glance at Mu Chen standing not far away.

Boss, what are you doing?

Martha had no idea when Mingmei had appeared in front of her; she hadn't even noticed!

Especially when she saw the talisman in Mingmei's hand when she was so close to her, disbelief still flashed in her eyes!

"How can you, how dare you do this?!"

Even at this point, Martha's question didn't stop Mingmei's actions at all; instead, she accelerated and directly raised her hand to slap the talisman on her head!

Villains die from talking too much.

Mingmei always remembered this sentence that her mother complained about while reading novels.

Sure enough, yyds! (it's the best)

With a loud bang, a bolt of lightning suddenly exploded in the room, directly striking Martha's crown.

The lightning was like a silver snake, and the commotion was much greater than the power displayed by Da Yao, the owner of the talisman itself!

Da Yao watched with a shocked expression. When her own talisman hit someone, it was like throwing a small firecracker at them, but when Mingmei used it—was this the difference between an NPC and a player?

"Awesome!"

Everyone didn't know what to say about the mysterious merchant's sudden attack to eliminate the evil spirit, except for the word "awesome" to express the surprise that suddenly surged in their hearts!

But before everyone could be happy, they saw that Martha, who had been struck by lightning, hadn't completely lost her combat power.

This time, Martha's eyes were filled with sinister poison as she stared at Mingmei. Taking advantage of everyone's relaxation, she directly stretched out her sharp fingers to strangle Mingmei's neck.

However, Mingmei caught a glimpse of her movements out of the corner of her eye, and easily dodged it by taking a step back.

Martha was unwilling to fail in this sneak attack and still wanted to step forward, but Mingmei, seeing her like this, also planned to exorcise the ghost in her own way. But before she could raise her hand, the other party, who had been looking at her with a resentful expression, suddenly revealed a look of extreme fear and wanted to retreat.

Mingmei: ?

Suddenly, Mingmei felt a black figure accompanied by a cool breeze rush out from behind her, and a large hand directly grabbed the top of Martha's head as she tried to retreat.

It was Mu Chen who had acted!

"You've overstepped your bounds." Mu Chen said lightly, and a gray-black aura surged out of Martha's body, continuously flowing upwards along her body into Mu Chen's pale hand.

[Oh my god! Guys, am I seeing things! Is that ghost energy?!]

Mingmei was dumbfounded. This game script was supposed to be in a Western setting, so how did it suddenly involve a "freak"?

"Wow, the priest has this ability?"

The crowd, who had just recovered from Mingmei's actions, saw Mu Chen's move and their eyes twitched violently, denying the others' surprise.

"No, I don't." Yuan Fang, who had just struggled out of that uncomfortable state, saw Mu Chen's move and denied the others' surprise with a twitch of his eyes.

This situation didn't last long. In the end, Martha, who had the strength to fight back even after being struck by lightning, was "sucked" clean by Mu Chen.

Until she disappeared, Martha's eyes were still fixed on Mu Chen, still full of fear!

"Clatter."

The crisp sound of a whip falling to the ground finally brought everyone back to their senses.

What happened to the weak, pitiful, and helpless persona?

Are you even human?!

Everyone couldn't help but ask a question from the soul, and then realized, well, he didn't seem to be human.

"Wow, this character is too perverted, right? So powerful?" Zhen Po blinked her big eyes and muttered in disbelief, "Why didn't I have this luck?"

"If you had drawn it... hehe." As her older brother, Zhen Hu never stopped tearing her down.

"Is it over?" Yuan Fang and the others were silent for a long time before asking dryly.

"No." Mu Chen's words instantly made everyone's hearts jump to their throats, "Aren't you going to help these undead cross over?"

After speaking, Mu Chen looked at Yuan Fang, and then glanced at the circle of undead trembling from his gaze, which made everyone's hearts feel like they were on a roller coaster.

"Okay, okay, I'm familiar with this. It's okay even without a crucifix." Yuan Fang laughed and began to help the undead cross over. Wang Wenfei lit candles and distributed them to all the players present, including Mingmei, the mysterious merchant. A group of people held the candlelight and stood quietly on the side watching Yuan Fang's actions.

Nair bowed to them to express his gratitude. Although the matter was over, his eyes were still full of sadness. Perhaps he still had feelings for Martha.

Otherwise, Mu Chen, who played the undead, wouldn't have been the one to act.

In Mu Chen's character's memory, he should have been able to subdue Martha at the time, but he was ambushed and died, becoming an undead...

As the undead left one by one, it seemed like the game was coming to an end.

Mingmei, holding the candlelight, seemed to remember something. She turned her head to look at Mu Chen, and saw that he didn't have a candle in his hand, but was standing there quietly, his eyebrows and eyes as beautiful as a painting.

Although his style was dark at the moment, it didn't affect Mingmei; she wasn't afraid of him.

"Aren't you going?" Mingmei asked.

"Go where?"

"To help the undead cross over, aren't you going?" Mingmei hadn't forgotten that this person wasn't alive right now, "You should need to cross over too, right?"

After all, he was also playing an undead.

"Me..." Hearing Mingmei's concern for him, Mu Chen lowered his eyes and looked at the person in front of him, the corners of his lips curving up, but he only said, "I don't believe in ghosts and gods, so neither heaven nor hell will accept me."
