Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 722

Shannon's eyes were sharp and filled with a rare flicker of anger. But the system showed no fear.

If it had been the purple lightning, it might have felt threatened. But a simple amulet was nothing it had to worry about.

With that, the system rushed toward the amulet only to have a third of its energy cleanly sliced off by Shannon's amulet.

It froze in shock. Who exactly was Shannon? Not only could she summon such terrifying purple lightning, but she could also harm it with just an amulet.

This made no sense! If the system had a face, it'd be gaping in disbelief right now.

But Shannon remained calm and unsurprised. Ordinary amulets were typically made from lightning-struck hazel branch, but they varied differently in quality.

Her amulet was passed down from Thalia and made from a thousand-year-old lightning-struck hazel branch. It was not just any lighting; it was the heavenly thunder.

Though she had no idea where Thalia had obtained such powerful material, the heavenly thunder scent of the amulet made it a natural bane for any malevolent beings.

Shannon infused the amulet with her blood and was determined to ensure that the Malignant System would end just right there and there.

The earlier appearance of those strange fire thunders hinted that some greater energy was protecting the system.

Shannon had a strong feeling that the consequences would be disastrous if it were to escape today, and that would make Benjamin's sacrifice in vain.

With that thought in mind, she set up a protective array around Benjamin. Then, she lunged toward the remaining red energy mass with the amulet in hand.

In the array, Shannon's spiritual energy was visibly starting to wane. Mitchell wanted to step in and assist, but they had no way to help without being able to see the system.

Meanwhile, the system was darting around under Shannon's relentless hunting. Every flash of her amulet chipped away more of its red energy and left it furious.

It'd sensed the presence of its subsystem on the amulet and understood how Shannon had been able to track and corner it so accurately.

It wanted to reclaim the energy, which it found it had no control over anymore. Shannon had somehow assimilated the energy and made it hers.

The system was furious.
