Chapter 1737

The Red Cloaked Assassin attacked fast and hard, catching Dustin by surprise from behind.

Dustin was still busy helping Cinna and couldn't defend himself.

When the assassin's blade came, Dustin quickly activated his energy armor, creating a protective shield.

"Clang!"

The Red Cloaked Assassin's blade hit Dustin's energy armor, creating a faint ripple.

The immense recoil sent the assassin's weapon flying, making him stagger backward.

"How is this possible?"

The Red Cloaked Assassin's eyes widened in shock.

His full-force surprise attack should have at least gravely wounded Dustin.

Yet, Dustin sat unscathed, while the assassin was pushed back.

He was surprised that Dustin's strength might be even greater than his.

"Pfft!"

Suddenly, as Dustin was still healing, he spat out black blood.

His face turned ashen.

The poison from earlier was potent. Even with his robust body, Dustin couldn't resist it.

The primary reason was the extensive energy consumption in treating Cinna.
