She triggered the curse and her body was really overwhelmed by the aftermath.
She wanted to drink some water when she felt some dreadful sense....
Then she froze in her actions.
The door suddenly creaked open, and a whisper of movement sliced through the silence like a knife through wet silk.
Her glazed eyes lifted slowly toward the entrance, and widened in horror as this wasn't the person she expected to see.
She thought it could be Shen Xiao who had come over to check up on her... But no! These....
Black-clad strangers were flooding in like shadows with purpose, rifles in hand, faces masked, and their steps soundless.
It wasn't just one stranger, and not two but a coordinated squad. Military precision in every movement.
They looked like phantoms conjured from a nightmare, silent and armed with death.
Her blood turned to ice and she could feel goosebumps all over her skin.
Her lips parted instinctively, breath catching up her throat...
"AH...!"
