    Chapter 1300 The Looming Trap


    Suddenly, a man wearing a silver mask obstructed Blood Rose''s way.


    Jewel was thrilled to see that the masked figure was one of their own.


    With a sudden halt, Blood Rose fixed her gaze intently on the person before her. She finally grasped


    the reason behind the absence of any backup for their group of six. It turned out that meticulous


    preparations had been made from the very beginning.


    A flicker of doubt crept into Blood Rose''s mind—could this unexpected encounter be a well-


    orchestrated trap set up for them?


    The thought fueled her anger further, as she realized that falling into their clutches would inevitably lead


    to her demise.


    Acting instinctively, she swiftly withdrew a handgun from her pocket, aiming it directly at Kyle before


    pulling the trigger.


    However, at that precise moment, Blood Rose felt a sudden pain in her wrist, causing the bullet to veer


    off its intended course.


    Seizing the opportunity, Kyle stepped forward and deftly kicked the firearm from Blood Rose''s hand.


    Simultaneously, Jewel swiftly caught up and snatched the fallen weapon.


    Only now did Blood Rose realize what had struck her wrist—a small, white vial emitting a faint


    fragrance upon shattering against the ground.


    She instinctively held her breath, recognizing it all too well. Many of herrades had fallen victim to


    its effects.


    With the gun aimed squarely at Blood Rose, Jewel taunted, "Care to try another escape?"


    While still covering her mouth and nose, Blood Rose cast a disdainful nce at Jewel, disying no


    signs of fear.


    She clearly knew Jewel''s true nature—someone inherentlypassionate, advocating for peace,


    justice, and kindness. That was precisely why the assassination mission had been meticulously tailored


    for someone like her.


    However, Blood Rose hadn''t anticipated that they had also set the trap for her. She had clearly


    underestimated them. Is she truly daring enough to pull the trigger without considering the


    consequences? Oh, I shouldn''t underestimate her, should I? Does she truly possess the courage for


    such a bold move? Look at her, so naive and tenderhearted, burdened by countless concerns. If it


    hadn''t been for their timely preparations, I would have already had her right in the palm of my hand.


    Blood Rose didn''t feel any threat from Jewel in the slightest. With unwavering determination, she


    launched a fierce attack on Kyle, and her steel wire sliced through the air with deadly precision. She


    aimed to dispatch him swiftly, even if it meant seizing an opportunity to escape amidst the ensuing


    chaos of the crowd.


    However, as Eugene''s trusted right-hand man, Kyle proved far more challenging to ovee.


    While Blood Rose could hold her breath, there were limits to how long she could sustain without air,


    particrly during the intensebat with Kyle.


    In truth, Blood Rose understood Jewel well. The reason Jewel hesitated to shoot wasn''t due to an


    inability to do so but rather concern for alerting the passengers and causing harm to innocent


    bystanders.


    Choosing not to shoot was merely a temporary strategy until the situation demanded otherwise. The


    scent of the bone-softening powder permeated the surroundings, and Jewel firmly believed that once


    Blood Rose took a breath, she would swiftly sumb to unconsciousness.


    Jewel doubted that Blood Rose could hold her breath indefinitely. Regardless, she knew that the


    combined efforts of herself and Kyle would prevent Blood Rose from escaping under any


    circumstances.


    Their intense skirmishsted a mere two minutes, and Blood Rose reached her limit. Awkwardly


    covering her mouth and nose, she cautiously drew a breath through the filter of her sleeve.


    Yet, even this precaution could not diminish the potency of the bone-softening powder.


    After exchanging blows with Jewel and Kyle for a while, Blood Rose felt her body be weak and


    powerless. Even her once formidable steel wire could now be effortlessly intercepted by her


    adversaries.


    Seizing a momentary advantage, Jewel delivered a powerful kick that sent Blood Rose crashing to the


    ground.


    Determined to stay conscious, Blood Rose stubbornly fought to keep her eyelids from closing.


    However, despite her tenacity, the effects of the bone-softening powder inevitably overcame her, and


    her eyes gradually slipped shut.


    Finally feeling a sense of relief, Jewel inquired, "What about the others? Wasn''t there another man


    pursuing her?"


    "Don''t worry, our team took care of all three of them," Kyle reassured.


    Jewel released a sigh of relief. "That''s good to hear. Let''s try not to rm the passengers and quickly


    transport her away."


    Kyle nodded in agreement. "Got it."


    At that moment, Alex rushed over while cradling an unconscious child in his arms. Noticing the


    bloodstains on Jewel''s back, he anxiously asked, "Jewel, are you alright?"


    Jewel turned her head and reassured him, "I''m fine. How is the child?"


    With one hand holding the child securely, Alex swiftly removed his own jacket and draped it over


    Jewel''s shoulders. "He''s safe. Let''s hurry back."

    She still harbored concerns. "Wait, let''s go back together with the others. I''m worried that Blood Rose


    might pull some tricks again."


    Anxious about Jewel''s injury, Alex urgently insisted, "Look at her, she''s in no condition to pose any


    threat. What more tricks could she possibly have? Let''s go back quickly and have Olivia examine your


    wound."
