Chapter 472: Chapter 472 You Betray the Gods

Even someone like Scarlett Jennings couldn’t help but be genuinely stunned when she heard Alicia Sharp’s words.

This...

Could it be a coincidence?

Just right after she had finished talking to her family about the system, the system came right to her

without her even having to look for it...

How could there be such a good thing??

Despite feeling a bit unsettled, Scarlett Jennings maintained a calm demeanor as she asked Alicia,

"You start by explaining more about it."

As she spoke, she reached out and patted the little beauty on her head.

Go, bring me my Peach Wood Sword.

The little beauty dashed off quickly.

Alicia Sharp didn’t mind and eagerly started explaining to Scarlett Jennings,

"After finishing the record at home last night, I tidied up around one o’clock and was just about to lie down to sleep when a voice suddenly sounded in my head, claiming to be the Fortune System asking me to bind it."

"I was quite excited at the time, since it was a system, a cheat that you only see in novels!"

On usual days, Alicia Sharp would have bound it without a second thought.

But having just experienced such a terrifying thing in the Ghost Realm last night, Alicia Sharp was no naive protagonist and she still had her guard up.

Who knows if this was some Evil Ghost from the Ghost Realm disguising as a system to parasitize her body?

Last night, she encountered Evil Ghosts disguised as players and the deceitful words of the Ghost Realm’s master, didn’t she?

It’s evident that ghosts are not only good at disguising themselves but are skilled in deception.

Moreover, because she knows Scarlett Jennings, she has a bit of knowledge about some occult matters.

She knows that ghosts sometimes cannot actively do anything to humans unless given a response.

For example, if you hear someone calling your name behind you while lost at night, don’t turn around or respond casually.

Another example is if someone knocks on your door and you open it by yourself.

These things have taboos.

"I thought, such a good thing shouldn’t always fall into my lap out of the blue, so I was more cautious at the time."

Alicia Sharp said,

"I told it I needed to think about it, to wait, and it even urged me, saying that binding the system was a one-time opportunity and explaining the benefits of binding the system. The more it talked, the more I felt something was wrong."

There must be some trick in such an eager deal.

She has heard of online fraud techniques.

Scams on the internet are even more sophisticated than this.

Alicia Sharp insisted that she needed time to think it over, and the system seemed to lose patience, agreeing to confirm with her again after twenty-four hours, stating this would be the final opportunity.

Alicia Sharp agreed wholeheartedly and ran straight to Scarlett Jennings.

There was no other way, the most reliable Master she knew was Scarlett Jennings.

"Later, I tried calling for the system in my mind, but it seemed like it had shut down, so I dared to come here to find you."

She continued,

"I know you were very tired last night, I didn’t want to trouble you, but I ran out of time, and you’re the only one I trust."

Alicia Sharp looked at Scarlett Jennings eagerly, with earnestness in her eyes.

Scarlett Jennings felt a slight stir in her heart and nodded to her, "I will help you."

As she spoke, the little beauty came over carrying her backpack, and Lucas Jennings hunched over from behind, supporting the backpack and worried about the little fox getting crushed.

"Sis, did you let the little fox take your bag?"

Lucas Jennings asked, instinctively glancing at Alicia Sharp.

Scarlett Jennings nodded, took the backpack off the little beauty’s back and pulled out her Peach Wood Sword.

The bloodstains on it had already been absorbed by the peach wood, making it look no different from last night.

But Alicia Sharp had seen Scarlett Jennings killing Evil Ghosts with this Peach Wood Sword, and her heart couldn’t help but tense up,

"Scarlett... Are you going to chop me with this Peach Wood Sword? Is it really an Evil Ghost?"

Though Alicia Sharp trusted Scarlett Jennings, she was still scared.

The thing was in her head, what if Scarlett chopped her while killing the ghost?

Scarlett Jennings only gave her a reassuring look and simply said, "It’s not an Evil Ghost, just a Wicked God that loves to disguise itself."

After speaking, she directly drew upon her Spiritual Power, and through the special energy in the brass, she sensed the aura of the "system" on Alicia Sharp’s body.

The next second, she laughed.

It really was.

Azura Loomis’s Evil God System.

Scarlett Jennings instantly felt a sense of relief as if hitting the pillow when feeling drowsy, and without a second of hesitation, she took out a few Yellow Talismans and directly set up an Array around Alicia Sharp.

From the aura she had sensed, the system energy within Alicia Sharp was even less than the sub-system energy that Hestia Knight had back then.

This showed that although the system had managed to escape initially, it truly had no energy left due to being heavily damaged.

Moreover, Alicia Sharp said the system was in a dormant state and she hadn’t encountered any hindrance while speaking so much about the system.

Let it be known that when Hestia Knight held a sub-system back then, it not only resisted the power of the Truth Talisman but seemed to trigger a retaliatory response from the sub-system whenever she mentioned the word system.

This evidently shows discussing matters related to the system is not something to be easily spoken of.

Alicia Sharp not only mentioned the system freely but even explained the details so thoroughly, which could only mean that the system energy within her couldn’t even trigger a prohibition on speaking.

Its urgency for Alicia Sharp’s attention was because it needed a new host to help it replenish its energy.

Thinking about it this way, the matter instantly became much simpler.

After setting up an Array to prevent the system from escaping again, Scarlett Jennings directly drew a God Sending Talisman in the air.

"As declared by the golden mouth, overseen by the jade text..."

As soon as Scarlett Jennings began the spell, Alicia Sharp’s face changed suddenly, and she shouted at Scarlett Jennings,

"Scarlett, hurry! It’s waking up!"

In her mind, the electronic voice of the system, usually calm, now audibly carried a hint of frustration,

[Ignorant human! How dare you betray the divine!]

Alicia Sharp couldn’t help but roll her eyes inwardly at this.

[Wasn’t it calling itself a system before, and now it’s a divine? Why don’t you say you’re my dead mom?!

You lousy Wicked God, I won’t fall for your tricks!]

While Alicia Sharp battled verbally with the system in her mind, Scarlett Jennings quickly finished the spell, and as the Spirit Talisman was about to hit Alicia Sharp.

The system didn’t hesitate, as soon as the God Sending Talisman came down, it rushed out of Alicia Sharp’s body.

With its last bit of system energy, it tried to once again escape this terrifying human.

But the system energy hit a familiar Barrier once again.

Scarlett Jennings signaled Alicia Sharp and Lucas Jennings to retreat, she then stepped forward with the sword, intending to completely destroy the remaining system energy.

Just as she was about to act, the side hall’s door was suddenly pushed open by a small figure, revealing Ismeria Jennings holding something and running straight toward Scarlett Jennings.

"Sister Scarlett! Look at my little turtle!"

Lucas Jennings and Alicia Sharp realized it was too late to stop her.

"Violet!"

Ismeria ran directly into the Barrier set up by Scarlett Jennings, and the system seized this momentary chance, swiftly rushing towards Ismeria.

Scarlett Jennings reacted in an instant, slashing with her sword.

The system energy was severed, but a small strand of energy still struggled forward.

Then, Scarlett Jennings watched as the strand of energy shot straight into the little turtle that Ismeria was holding.

Scarlett Jennings: ...

System: ??!!
