Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1207

Warren's face was grim as he declared, "I'll save the villagers."

Shannon glanced at the two, who were going to reenter the village. She suggested, "I'd recommend we lure all ghouls in the village to one place. That way, we can prevent them from escaping via other exits."

If Shannon were alone, she might not have had the courage to make such a risky suggestion. But things were different now that she had two experienced mystic masters present.

Plus, gathering the ghouls in one location could indirectly save the remaining survivors in the village.

Elias looked at her with interest. "How do you plan to lure them?"

Shannon pulled out a talisman, hesitated briefly, and smeared her blood across. With a flick of her wrist, she sent it flying into the sky. "Go!"

The talisman soared upward and glowed with spiritual light. Then, it erupted into a series of loud bangs and dazzling fireworks.

Both Elias and Warren were stunned. They had no idea such talismans existed.

Regardless of how Shannon had acquired such an unusual talisman, the loud explosion and faint scent of blood that accompanied the fireworks immediately drew the attention of most of the ghouls in the village.

Ghouls that had been following the scents to other exits paused at the commotion. They turned sharply and charged toward the entrance of the village with frenzied excitement. Their expressions screamed. "Food! There's food!"

Skylar's group had been on the verge of collapse while fighting off a horde of ghouls when their attackers were attracted by the commotion. They shifted focus and abandoned the group to join the stampede.

As they slumped to the ground in exhaustion, Elliot retracted the sharp spines that'd shielded them and gasped for breath.

Celine glanced toward the source of the fireworks and asked, "Who set off the fireworks?"

Skylar glanced weakly in that direction and uttered in a certain voice, "It's Shannon."
