Chapter 93 - Activated His Heavenly Eye
"Miss Torres, what should we do now?"
The ghosts did not move. They just stuck close to the car and stared at them.
Quinn, who was sitting in the back of the car, had already recovered from the "magic" incident. He convinced himself that what he had just seen was just a toy.
At that moment, he looked outside, it was empty. He pushed Ben, who was sitting in the driver's seat, with his knee.
"What do you mean? Why are we stopping in the middle of the road? Have we run out of petrol?"
Franklin's expression was grave. Although he was like Quinn and could not see anything, he knew that something was not right from the expressions on Lauren and Ben's faces.
A strong wind had unknowingly started blowing outside, and the trees by the roadside swayed from side to side in the wind. The dark sky added a layer of mystery to this bleak scene.
No one paid any attention to Quinn.
"What's wrong? Aren't we going to have supper?"
Ben had no words to express his bitterness. 'He's still thinking of having supper. They might just become these ghosts' supper!' Ben thought.
Lauren suddenly turned around. The talisman in her hand flew toward Quinn's forehead and accurately stuck to it.
"Eh..."
Before Franklin could make a sound, Quinn seemed to have lost all his strength. He leaned against the car window and closed his eyes.
"Don't worry, he's just asleep. I have temporarily sealed his consciousness. Once that talisman is removed, he'll wake up."
If Quinn was awake, it would only hinder them.
Lauren took out a large stack of talisman papers from the pocket dimension and gave some to Ben. "Mr. Carson, these are for you."
Ben did not dare to take them. He was almost scared to tears by what had happened tonight.
"Lauren... Miss Torres, why are you giving them to me..."
Lauren stuffed the talisman papers into Ben's hands without any explanation. "I'm giving them to you for self-defense! You can see these ghosts now. If you see one, stick one on it! Don't be afraid. Ordinary ghosts can't resist it at all."
Ben had never touched such things before. The stack of talisman papers seemed to be burning hot, and he could not help but push them out.
"Mr. Carson, ghosts can absorb the essence of humans. If you can't protect yourself, then you can only sit and wait for death."
Lauren became serious and "threatened" Ben.
When Ben heard this, he quickly grabbed the talisman papers in his hands. "I want it! I want it!"
Franklin, who was sitting in the back seat, suddenly spoke, "What about me? I can help too."
[System Divine Nine: Franklin has extremely strong positive energy. Ordinary ghosts can't harm him. On the contrary, if he appears, it might be of great help to our operation this time.]
Lauren knew that System Divine Nine was right. However, this plan would expose Franklin to danger.
[System Divine Nine: I know what you're worried about. However, it's more dangerous if you leave him alone in the car. It's better to let him protect himself like Ben.]
Lauren struggled for a while. More and more ghosts gathered around the car, so there was not much time left.
Although Lauren was confident that her ability was above these ghosts, she was still outnumbered. If there were too many ghosts, one or two of them could take advantage of the situation.
Lauren made a decision. "Franklin, I'm going to open the heavenly eye for you now. After opening the heavenly eye, you'll see something..."
Ben was having a breakdown. Was this just something? This was a lot of sh*t!
Franklin nodded and did not ask further. "Come on."
Seeing how calm Franklin was, Lauren felt less doubtful of her decision. "Close your eyes, Franklin."
Franklin obediently closed his eyes and felt Lauren's fleshy little hand stop on his eyelids for a moment. A wave of heat came and then faded.
"Alright, you can open your eyes now. But don't be scared."
Lauren's hand slowly moved away from Franklin's eyes. Franklin felt that his eyelids were a little heavy, and some voices that had not been heard earlier also appeared in his ears.
It was like a voice that came from afar. It was very drifting and carried a sinister feeling.
He opened his eyes. Although he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked by the scene before him. In an instant, his pupils dilated.
Lauren did not have time to explain to Franklin anymore. She also placed a stack of talisman papers in Franklin's hands.
"Our mission today is to catch ghosts. The talisman papers in your hands are the ones that I have already chanted. They will have an effect as long as you stick them on the ghosts."
"The talismans that I have given you are all immobilizing talismans. After you immobilize the ghosts, I will use the soul storage device to put away these ghosts."
Franklin nodded, indicating that he understood.
Ben shook his head, indicating that he did not want to go out.
But this moment would always come, and he had to fight his way out.
