The Fake Heiress Turns out to Be a True Tycoon!

Chapter 280: Chapter 280 They Are Experienced Audience 5.0

Director Clark, being continuously questioned by several guests, felt cold sweat on his forehead.

He was truly wronged.

These ancestors, weren’t they all his treasured golden darlings? How could he possibly sell them out for his own benefit?!

It was just that the director of this film crew had some acquaintance with him, and the two of them thought, why not let him play an extra while they’re at it...

But he swore to heaven, the reason he agreed was entirely to enhance the viewing interest of the live broadcast!

A large-scale film crew murder mystery + role-playing, wasn’t this to increase the entertainment value of the program?

The live broadcast viewers had never expected there to be this level of truth behind the scenes.

"I declare that after this episode airs, ’Prosperous Age’ will instantly rise to S+ scale production!"

"The film has to rise! Who can boast about having millions worth of extras?!"

"Sebastian: My worth is in the millions, and you sold me out for three hundred a day??"

"Director Clark, are you looking down on our daily income of 2.08 million?!"

"I vow on the twenty pounds of fat on my body, Director Clark definitely took advantage of something!"

"Clark, you’re getting cocky!"

...

Live broadcast viewers joined the banter in droves, and there weren’t many who focused on the true ghostly shenanigans of the ’Prosperous Age’ film crew.

After all, they were no longer ignorant viewers.

They were now audience version 5.0, seasoned with grandeur!

Real-life versions of Huang Daxian, yellow talismans supervising online, and Dragon God rain, what have you...

Compared to these, a mischievous ghost in a film crew was no big deal at all.

Our girl could snatch that little ghost away with a wave.

It wouldn’t take two days.

No, it wouldn’t even take one day!

Just for fun~

Although the guests didn’t show it openly, in their hearts, they shared the same thoughts as the live viewers.

After the first four episodes, they felt there was nothing Scarlett couldn’t solve.

They only needed to wait for Scarlett to lead them to victory.

This episode was just for fun!

They soon dropped the topic of being sold out by Director Clark and shifted back to the mission at hand.

Scarlett Jennings, walking along with Ianthe Lawson, did sense a faint shadow energy, but it was normal.

"Not only does this crew have it, but the crew next door also has it."

Ianthe Lawson, hearing this, was somewhat confused and asked instinctively, "What do they have?"

"There’s shadow energy," Scarlett Jennings explained.

Ariel Zimmerman immediately couldn’t help but widen her eyes, "Are you saying the crew next door is haunted too?"

Sebastian Carew asked, "Is it the same one?"

Evander Simpson explained from the side,

"Scarlett... What she means is just the general shadow energy around the film city. This place was built near a mountain, likely flattened to construct this city. Ancient people preferred burials, so places like this would inevitably pick up some shadow energy, but all within normal limits."

Even if it’s not a burial mound, where in the Cathay Lands hasn’t someone died, particularly during those dark times.

Schools built on mass graves are not uncommon.

But whether it’s schools or film cities, with so many people around, generally, nothing really happens.

Evander’s explanation made everyone feel as if something was off all around them.

They started to feel that a grayish shadow energy began wafting through the air.

Scarlett Jennings noticed Ianthe Lawson seemed somewhat scared and casually pulled out an amulet from her bag for her.

"This is a return gift."

This amulet was supposed to be distributed by the production team, as every guest had one.

However, because Momo Ross and Spencer Atkins absconded with the production team’s Life-saving Bags during the first two episodes, the amulets Quincy Zimmerman bought from Scarlett were mostly used up. With Scarlett busy with induction training, the production team forgot to restock, so Ianthe Lawson was without an amulet.

Seeing the amulet folded into a triangle, Ianthe Lawson was initially stunned. After hearing the host explain its function beside her, she was immediately grateful and seriously put the talisman paper into the sachet hanging around her neck.

She also reminded her assistant, "When changing costumes, make sure I have this sachet, don’t mix it up."

Scarlett Jennings’ amulet reminded the others as well that they were indeed protected by amulets, and they instantly felt more courageous.

Even if there was some shadow energy here, they felt sure they were impervious to evil!

If it’s from Scarlett, that confidence runs deep.

Seeing everyone’s spirits lifted, Scarlett continued,

"Although there’s shadow energy here, I haven’t detected any clear ghost energy. There are generally only two scenarios for not detecting ghost energy. The first is that there’s no mischievous ghost at all."

"Are you saying there’s no haunting in the crew?" Ianthe Lawson couldn’t help but ask, eyes full of hope.

Scarlett looked at her and quietly continued speaking.

"The second scenario is that the one causing trouble is a Big Ghost capable of concealing its ghost energy."

Worried that she hadn’t been clear enough, Scarlett thoughtfully added, "Typically, after fifty years, they can be considered old ghosts, and a Big Ghost is usually over a hundred years."

Her words almost drove the guests and live audience to despair.

A century-old Big Ghost!

Did the ’Prosperous Age’ crew stumble into a massive ghost nest?

But that can’t be it, the filming location was rented by other crews too, why would the Big Ghost target just this crew??

No one present could make sense of it.

Ianthe Lawson didn’t understand either.

Ariel Zimmerman, though puzzled, focused on the important stuff, "So, can you catch it?"

With this question, everyone’s eyes fell on Scarlett Jennings.

The latter didn’t show any difficult expression, continuing her serene demeanor,

"I guess I can."

She hadn’t caught one before, but she could give it a try.

Shouldn’t be too hard.

"To lock onto the target, we need to lock onto its ghost energy. Even if it’s a Big Ghost, once it causes trouble, its ghost energy will leak, and we can directly take action then."

Scarlett Jennings said, and she handed each guest a talisman.

Evander Simpson took one look and inhaled sharply.

"Soul Stabilizing Talisman!"

And a mid-level one at that!

And she gave out five of them at once.

Even knowing about Scarlett Jennings’ background, Evander couldn’t help but feel a twinge of envy.

Soul Stabilizing Talismans were not easy to draw.

He could only manage a junior talisman, but such a junior talisman was no use against a Big Ghost.

"This one is easier for you to use."

Scarlett Jennings explained, "Throw it out right when you notice something is wrong."

She had upgraded the talisman by adding a ghost-energy tracking feature, coming from the Spiritual Affairs APP’s ghost-energy-locking inspiration.

Even if the Soul Stabilizing Talisman couldn’t immobilize it directly, she could still track the ghost energy, allowing her to pull it out directly.

She originally thought of giving Thunder Talismans.

But considering the extensive damage of Thunder Talismans, and that ordinary people might be unable to use them effectively, she decided against it.
