Chapter 148: Ambush
Although the Hell Ghost Vine couldn’t discern the System’s true nature, it could tell that this was an auxiliary Pet Beast, one that wouldn’t affect its status. It remained the strongest under Song Tiantian’s command.
What it needed to guard against was the Illusion Grass, which had made significant progress recently.
Although Big White was now a Five-star Pet Beast, it was not a threat. The Hell Ghost Vine was very confident in its own Strength.
The only thing that could harm it was the Illusion Grass.
However, it was now also a Six-star Fierce Beast, so the Illusion Grass was not a great threat to it.
Ever since Song Tiantian saved White Lotus, the Hell Ghost Vine had decided to follow Song Tiantian.
Since it intended to follow Song Tiantian for life, it was determined to become the strongest.
This was the System’s first time greeting other Pet Beasts.
The System knew all about these Pet Beasts.
The System felt its Contract with Song Tiantian was more powerful, and it had been with Song Tiantian for a long time. It had watched Song Tiantian Contract with these Pet Beasts, and in its eyes, these Pet Beasts were also its Pet Beasts.
As they became stronger, Song Tiantian could also become stronger.
However, among these Pet Beasts, the System’s favorite was actually Big White, because Big White’s Soul Power was the purest.
Actually, it had omitted one point: without the power of belief, it would indeed devour Song Tiantian’s emotions. Human emotions were actually Power emitted by Soul Power.
But the first thing it devoured was the Soul Power emitted by these Pet Beasts.
The Illusion Grass’s Soul Power tasted bitter to the System, and the Hell Ghost Vine’s Soul Power caused a slight stinging sensation, which was very uncomfortable. This was perhaps what Song Tiantian called spicy.
It originally had no sense of taste, but after forming a Contract with Song Tiantian, it developed the notion of having taste.
Big White’s Soul Power, in the System’s opinion, was a bit like the Taste of Cotton Candy, soft, like clouds, with a hint of sweetness.
This was what the System liked the most.
In the System’s view, the Soul Power emitted by these Pet Beasts was going to be wasted anyway, so it might as well eat it.
The System had been afraid to approach Big White before, but now it could openly approach Big White and even feed Big White its favorite Bamboo.
When Big White was full and happy, it would also be happy and eat a little along with it.
The System regretted it; if it had known, it should have appeared before Song Tiantian earlier, and it wouldn’t have had to endure so much hardship.
The System lay on Big White’s body, watching the Illusion Grass and the Hell Ghost Vine fighting over territory again. It felt that days like these seemed quite good.
Song Tiantian was already outside, cooperating with Doctor Mo for round after round of check-ups.
Doctor Mo looked at Song Tiantian’s check-up report and confirmed once again that Song Tiantian was not controlled by a Ghost, as there was not a trace of Ghost’s Power within Song Tiantian.
Furthermore, people controlled by Ghosts, in the later stages, either became listless, with extremely stable emotions and no emotional fluctuations.
Or they were completely devoured by a certain thought by the Ghost, and then the entire person was in a state of extreme loss of control.
They were prone to outbursts, completely unable to control their emotions.
However, Song Tiantian’s name was on the Ghost’s list.
When Song Tiantian told Doctor Mo that she had been attacked by a Ghost at a bar before, Doctor Bai had saved her that time.
Doctor Mo then understood; Song Tiantian was an escaped prey, so it was normal for Ghosts to target her.
And at the very beginning, when Song Jiaojiao was controlled by a Ghost, perhaps Song Tiantian was not yet targeted by Ghosts.
At that time, Song Tiantian was just an Ordinary Person. If she had been targeted by Ghosts, she definitely wouldn’t have survived, let alone lived this long.
As for why Song Tiantian’s cultivation speed was so fast, it was because Song Tiantian herself had good Talent, and Doctor Bai was behind her. Everything was perfectly reasonable.
Doctor Mo felt he had suspected the wrong Partner, as he had meticulously examined Song Tiantian several times and confirmed the results were accurate.
The Ghosts had evolved again.
This gave Doctor Mo a terrible headache.
There were no clues on Song Tiantian either; he had to change his line of thinking.
It was a pity that his Experimental Subjects could not awaken. They all died as soon as they woke up. The Ghosts’ mysterious Power seemed to be unsealable by any item, which gave Doctor Mo a lot of trouble.
Just as Doctor Mo was about to send Song Tiantian away.
All the Experimental Subjects in his Research Institute suddenly awakened at that moment.
“Caw caw caw! Doctor Mo, I truly must thank you. If not for you, with Doctor Bai constantly watching Song Tiantian, I would have had no chance to make a move.”
Song Tiantian had been prepared long ago and had already summoned the Illusion Grass and the Hell Ghost Vine.
Song Tiantian could not hear the System’s Inner Voice, but she could hear all the Inner Voices of the Ghosts outside.
However, Song Tiantian was unsure if Doctor Mo was truly innocent or if this was all Doctor Mo’s scheme. In any case, the Ghosts were deliberately sowing discord, so what if she fell for it?
A fatal Mental Attack struck towards Song Tiantian. Song Tiantian took out a Feather from Black Crow and blocked the blow.
Black Crow had given Song Tiantian two Feathers.
Song Tiantian had now used one.
The Hell Ghost Vine’s speed was faster than Song Tiantian had expected; it had already rapidly entangled these people.
“No, Song Tiantian, no! You can’t kill these people. If they all die, all their Power will return to their main bodies. Then the Ghosts’ Strength will greatly increase again, and the Ghosts in this world will evolve once more. Then it will be over.”
Doctor Mo quickly shouted at Song Tiantian.
Song Tiantian frowned but could only let the Hell Ghost Vine drain them until they were half-dead.
“What about the Enforcement Team! Where are they!”
Song Tiantian asked, while quickly opening a passage. This place was not safe; it was an ambush. She had to escape quickly.
The Illusion Grass emitted a large amount of Illusion Power, but Ghosts were precisely its bane and were not at all confused by its Illusion Power. The Illusion Grass became a mere decoration.
Instead, Big White could be put to use.
So Song Tiantian recalled the Illusion Grass to the Pet Beast Center and summoned Big White.
Song Tiantian glanced at Doctor Mo. The two Enforcement Team members protecting him had already been killed. Song Tiantian thought about it and felt that this matter might not be related to Doctor Mo; Doctor Mo was probably also schemed against.
Therefore, Song Tiantian grabbed Doctor Mo and fled with him.
The situation outside was even worse.
Huang Xiaohua was fine; she had a Secret Treasure that protected her Soul.
But the other Enforcement Team members were not so lucky. Their bodies were forcibly controlled by Ghosts, and they went berserk, attacking their own people like zombies.
