Capítulo 774: Chapter 774: Welco to Spirit Headquarters
Scarlett Jennings turned at the sound, and unexpectedly t two pairs of dark, deep eyes.
What surprised her wasn’t that the owners of those eyes were not human, but rather their attire.
Black clothes, black hats, and markings unique to the Spiritual Affairs.
“Are you… from the Spiritual Affairs?”
The two who spoke took a closer look at the person in front of them, and after a while, one of them looked slightly amazed,
“Are you Scarlett Jennings?”
Saying this, he turned to look at Elysia Xander, who was tied up behind her.
He didn’t recognize her.
But looking at the aura around her…
“Did you bring soone for us?”
She didn’t look like a soul needing guidance.
But since she was tied up, perhaps she was so kind of evil ghost?
Scarlett pursed her lips, not answering their question, and only asked,
“Could you tell what this place is?”
The two Spiritual Affairs guys exchanged glances, “You don’t know?”
They did not offer much explanation, only leading Scarlett to the stairs on the left. Taking the steps, a floating panel suddenly appeared in front of the guy leading her.
He scanned sothing on the panel, and the next second the stairs automatically aligned, transforming into a large red-lacquered door in front of Scarlett.
The door opened, revealing an entirely different world inside.
In the spacious room, hundreds of workstations were orderly arranged, each with a corresponding door next to it.
At the mont, those seated at the workstations were all uniformly dressed in black clothes and hats.
As they heard the commotion, everyone lifted their eyes towards the door in unison.
Scarlett twitched her lips, finally understanding what this place was.
Then, she saw soone inside, distinct from the other guys, wearing a black suit with a black top hat, clearly the man in charge, approaching.
His expression conveyed no surprise at Scarlett’s presence. He walked straight up, looking at her with a polite smile,
“Scarlett Jennings, welco to Spirit Headquarters.”
…
The Spiritual Affairs connects to the Mystical Sect above and the Underworld below; from its inception, it has been a unique existence.
Especially since the Spiritual Affairs APP covers a wide range of services, its functionalities span almost every corner of the Mystical Sect.
Despite this, to this day, no one in the Mystical Sect knows who exactly is the boss behind Spiritual Affairs.
So speculate that the Spiritual Affairs is backed by the Underworld, otherwise it’s inexplicable how their employees could effortlessly use the Underworld’s pathways.
Yet, so suspect a bigwig from the Mystical Sect is behind it, as most functionalities were initially inclined towards the Mystical Sect’s people, even so of the positions within Spiritual Affairs would recruit graduates from Taoism Academy or others from the Mystical Sect.
Like the Spiritual and Safety Bureau, the Spiritual Affairs has offices around but they are only prepared for Masters.
There were once insiders from the Mystical Sect who entered Spiritual Affairs and ntioned that Spiritual Affairs keeps Yin and Yang separated.
Thus, to this day, no one knew what the headquarters of Spiritual Affairs looked like.
anwhile, as they were speaking, one of the guys at the workstation already received a flash delivery order.
That guy stood up, quickly operated sothing on the panel before him, then turned around and entered the door corresponding to his workstation.
Soon, his figure vanished into the door.
Simultaneously, others erged from the other side of the door, carrying several bags of what seed like takeout food, and entered another door.
Scarlett Jennings: …
She highly suspected those orders were placed by students from Sea City Taoist Academy.
It had been said before that Spirit Express can use the Underworld routes for cross-province and cross-district express delivery, but witnessing the operation process firsthand, Scarlett couldn’t help but feel slightly stunned on the spot.
On the other side, equally stunned, was Stella Gibson, who just received the takeout from the Spiritual Affairs guy.
She looked at the delivery guy in front of her, then at the livestream on her phone showing the guy who had entered the door with the takeout a mont ago.
Absolutely certain and sure, they were the sa person.
Knowing that Scarlett Jennings was a guest on this episode, Stella naturally wouldn’t miss her friend’s livestream.
But who would have thought, watching a livestream, she’d actually see the Spirit Headquarters!
Indeed, from the mont Scarlett and Elysia Xander entered the Ghost Tower, the livestream continued to operate.
Considering Ariel Zimrman and Amber Livingston’s sudden disappearance, before deciding to summon the rain and reveal the Ghost Tower, the production team specially secured motion caras for each remaining guest.
The caras were fixed on their chests to prevent real-ti signal disruption by certain external forces, the production team even spent a fortune with Scarlett on custom talisman paper to isolate Shadow Energy and ensure signal.
And the decision proved correct.
The live footage relayed in real-ti allowed everyone to clearly see Scarlett Jennings’ entire process of entering the Ghost Tower from the start.
[This Spirit Headquarters looks quite impressive.]
[Wait, is this Spiritual Affairs the one I know? That mysterious APP exclusively for the Mystical Sect?]
[What are you saying? Are you talking about the APP where you can easily buy Clear Breeze Charm, Truth Talisman, Slimming Talisman, Amulet, Exam Pass Talisman and all kinds of talismans and magic artifacts?!]
[My dream APP, it actually has a headquarters! Even if it’s a Ghost Tower, I want to go!]
Realizing the truth inside the Ghost Tower, the livestream audience couldn’t help but go wild.
Director Clark couldn’t contain his excitent, pacing back and forth in front of the monitor.
Originally, he just wanted to capture so authentic footage of the Ghost Tower, but unexpectedly, he stumbled upon sothing monuntal!
How could this not be another milestone for his show?
Though thrilled, he hadn’t forgotten about the missing Ariel Zimrman and Amber Livingston.
Scarlett Jennings naturally hadn’t forgotten either.
After overcoming the initial shock, she straightforwardly inquired about the two little friends suspected of being pulled into the Ghost Tower.
If it were an ordinary Ghost Tower, she might have opted for a direct forceful search.
But since it was Spirit Headquarters, things were relatively simple.
Indeed, hearing her question about the two who had just co in, the manager said,
“Miss Ariel Zimrman was locked in by Soul Breath during the shooting while David Allen was moving and was inadvertently taken inside by him. Our boss has reprimanded David Allen, and as for Miss Zimrman, she is very safe and currently in the lounge.”
The manager didn’t elaborate further, but from Scarlett’s multiple hear of “David Allen,” it wasn’t hard to infer that “David Allen” referred to the ghost building itself.
Just as she had previously speculated, the building had beco sentient.
Sure enough, just then the manager said,
“David Allen likes to take walks in misty rainy weather. We are aware of the ghost tower rumors outside, but the boss said to ignore them, and so we have. I hope it hasn’t caused you too much trouble.”
Saying this, he stopped at a door.
Placing his hand on the handle, the electronic screen on the door imdiately displayed “Ghost Energy Verification Successful.”
Then, the door opened.
Inside the large room, like an entertainnt area, Ariel was occupying the largest table there by herself.
At the mont, the table was filled with various fruits, snacks, and treats.
Ariel was bowing her head, quickly sketching sothing with a pen. Finishing a sketch, she grabbed the milk tea beside her and took a sip.
Just as she took that sip, she looked up and suddenly locked eyes with Scarlett Jennings at the door.
Ariel blinked her pretty eyes, and when she realized, imdiately stood up with her face full of excitent, holding onto her milk tea,
“Scarlett, you’ve finally co to get ! I was so scared being here all by myself! …”
Saying this, she accidentally let out a small burp.
“Hic!”
