The attacker was wearing a bronze mask, so no one could see his face. But when he saw the one who kicked him was Darren, surprise flashed his eyes.
"Darren. Why did you get up? Be careful of your injury," Daphne shouted in surprise.
Daphne rushed towards Darren.
"Stay there," Darren rebuked and stopped her. The bronze masked man rushed to Daphne and tried to catch her as the hostage. However, the moment he grasped her neck, he withdrew his hand. When he reached out his hand, he found that it turned black.
Daphne touched her neck with a frightened look. Luckily, she had put some poison on her body in order to protect herself. Otherwise, she would have a hard time today.
"Give me the antidote." Taking a step forward, Harper looked at the masked man, and said slowly, "Give me the antidote and I'll spare your life."
The masked man sneered. He pulled out the cover, and put the antidote directly into his mouth. There was no time for Harper to stop him. She could only watch him swallow all of them.
"You..."
"The antidote is gone. Now, there is no need for all of you to stay alive," the masked man said coldly and waved the empty bottle in his hand.
"I have stopped you, but you still want to die. You asked for it, and you deserve it. Don't blame anybody." Harper sighed.
The masked man was a little confused and did not understand what Harper said. "What do you mean?"
Looking at the China bottle he had thrown on the ground, Harper said, "It was not the antidote in the bottle. It's the Internal Force Ruining Powder. Haven't you tasted it?"
"Internal Force Ruining Powder!" The masked man was shocked. He immediately hit his three main acupoints to avoid the powder's power from circulating inside his body. Then he glared at Harper. There was no antidote to the powder yet. Even though he had a great power, he would not dissolve its side effect after swallowing one full bottle.
Darren covered his chest with one hand, and the wound was torn when he kicked just now. The shirt on his chest had been dyed red with blood. Harper frowned and said, "Brother."
Darren waved his hand, indicating that he was fine. He looked at the masked man. "Take off your mask."
