Chapter 282 Edward’s Serious Injury

After striking another crossbow bolt, Freya heard a cry of surprise from Edward beside her. “Freya! Watch out!”

The next second, Edward was already standing in front of her. Freya looked at the young man in front of her, and a steel crossbow arrow pierced through his right chest, the tip of the arrow pointing out before

her.

There was blood on the arrowhead. Edward staggered in pain and Freya panicked. “Edward!”

The man in gray, not far away, clearly didn’t expect this. He stood stupefied for a moment before quickly loading a new arrow.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Freya immediately helped Edward to the side.

There was no other choice.

She looked at the man in gray sternly.

She had to fight back now.

Edward couldn’t move now, and she had to keep the man occupied, preventing him from injuring anyone else.

Freya dodged several steel arrows and quickly ran toward the man in gray.

Her speed was remarkable, her movements agile, making it difficult for the man to aim accurately.

Moreover, aiming required stability, and shooting while retreating made his shots increasingly off-target.

Freya took a deep breath.

Thirty yards! Twenty yards! Freya mentally counted. When she was fifteen yards away from the man in gray, he seemed to give up, turning around to escape once again.

Freya picked up her pace.

As the man in gray attempted to climb over the wall again, Freya immediately halted her steps.

This time, she didn’t intend to chase him, for Edward’s condition required immediate attention.

After making sure the surroundings were safe, Freya quickly returned to Edward’s side.

Edward was already sitting against the wall, the edge of the crossbow arrow in his chest oozing blood.
