Chapter 148: Bounty Hunter Peter Crispin

Before she had finished speaking, she was already charging at Wraith. Wraith's expression changed as he quickly darted out of the operating room, throwing a handful of poison powder back at Tina. Tina, unconcerned, reached out to grab his shoulder. He sagged his shoulder to dodge Tina's hand, while simultaneously shooting several silver needles from his hand, which Tina easily blocked with her own needles. Meanwhile, members of the Mountain Veil Order, upon receiving Tina's signal through a micro earpiece, also stormed into the hospital.

Jayden had once witnessed how Wraith had turned a maximum-security prison into a scene straight out of a biohazard crisis. So, as he entered, he worried about witnessing such a horrific scene again, complicating the aftermath. However, seeing that the people scattered about the lobby were unharmed, except for one poisoned at the entrance and another in a worse state in the operating room, he felt reassured. Their young master was indeed effective; only she could subdue Wraith, that deadly freak.

Wraith and Tina had continued their fight from inside the hospital building to the courtyard. Surrounded by the forces of Mountain Veil Order, Wraith scoffed, "Spectre, relying on others to capture me doesn't mean you've won." "They are all my men; their capture of you means I win," Tina retorted indifferently to his taunt, then added, "You could let your men help you if you wanted."

She glanced back at the hospital building and chuckled, "Oh, I forgot, you poisoned all of them."

"They hardly count as my men," Wraith laughed without guilt, "At best, they are my toys, not even worthy of being test subjects."

Suddenly, he leapt at a fat man who was staring blankly and drooling nearby, seizing him as a hostage. "Let me go, or I'll kill him," Wraith threatened.

"Why would I release you for him? He's yours," Tina scoffed.

"He's just a mad fool, not my man," Wraith said, pressing a knife against the fat man's neck, smirking proudly, "Do you know why I poisoned everyone in the hospital except for him? Just in case you tried something like this."
