Kapitel 703: Chapter 518: Man of Darkness_1

"Hah...hah..."

She was almost spent, each breath seared her lungs like fire. In this deserted city, on these desolate streets, only the girl was desperately running. And behind her, the enormous, terrifying Steel Monster. Its steps were slow but persistent, like a predator playing with its prey, always close behind the girl.

"Hah..."

Finally, the anguish peaked. The girl halted, panting heavily. Her slender, delicate legs began to tremble. However, the relentless footsteps behind her continued to draw closer, showing no signs of stopping.

"Shirley...A'Xie..."

Calling out her friends' names, the girl gritted her teeth, her heart pounding as if it was about to explode.

Why had this happened to her?

She had accompanied her worried friend home, but suddenly, her friend screamed in fear as a bizarre black creature appeared behind her. The sight terrified the girl, but luckily, the monster didn't intend to harm her friend but seemed more interested in her own right eye.
