Chapter 44: Death of a Comrade and a Mysterious Stone
---
The boss of the robbers ripped the door off a car and hurled it at Miss Elena Rivers with terrifying force. His motive is to finish Elena or at least injured her enough to stop her.
Seeing the car door coming at her in high speed, She instinctively raised her hands in defense, but it was futile.
Whoosh!
The sharp edge of the metal door slashed across her thigh.
Slash!
A deep cut opened, and blood dripped onto the pavement.
Drip... Drip... Drip...
Elena clenched her teeth, suppressing a pained groan as a burning sensation spread through her leg. The warm trickle of blood soaked into her pants, but she forced herself to remain steady.
"Damn it... That bastard got me. I need to be more careful. I'm running low on talismans—I have to close the distance."
