Chapter 207
As the needle pierced his skin, it was as if an invisible force surged straight into his body!
For a brief moment, his blood and energy seemed to freeze, and he felt as if he were a puppet whose strings had been abruptly cut. Then, just like that, he collapsed to the ground!
Crystal watched Miranda in action with a thrill of excitement. For a fleeting moment, she was transported back to when she first saw Miranda in the prison, handling those troublemakers with ease.
She hadn’t seen Miranda in action very often. Miranda rarely needed to showcase her physical prowess. Most of the time, she used her unique talents to take control of any situation.
This left many people oblivious to the fact that Miranda was also highly skilled in combat. In fact, many revered Miranda almost like a deity because she commanded respect without relying on brute force.
Even though Crystal knew Miranda had used her secret acupuncture technique to subdue the opponent, she still couldn’t grasp the mechanics behind it.
From a scientific perspective, it was inexplicable. Miranda had explained it to her, but Crystal still couldn’t wrap
her head around it.
Even from a medical perspective, Miranda’s level of skill was unparalleled. Miranda’s ability was such that she could almost totally dominate a person’s mind and body with a single needle. It was almost superhuman.
Miranda had once told her that whether mentality or body, or life, aging, illness and death, could be harnessed on the condition that her body and mentality reached to a top level. Then, she could actually heal those others believed incurable.
Everything in the world had energy, and her medical techniques allowed her to control and enhance this energy. By doing so, she could instill the energy of life into ailing bodies, facilitating an exchange of energies.
To Crystal, Miranda’s medical skills seemed almost mystical. But Miranda said, “The end of all understanding is mysticism, isn’t it?”
Of course, Miranda emphasized that all of this was based on pharmacology and medical principles.
Only by understanding the human body and the effects of medicine could one hope to master it. That was why Crystal chose to stay by Miranda’s side – it wasn’t just the incidents in prison.
She was intensely curious about Miranda and wanted to study her. If there ever came a day when Miranda was gone, Crystal would stop at nothing to get her hands on Miranda’s body for study.
While these thoughts flitted through Crystal’s mind, Miranda had already taken down two men. Another man, realizing Miranda was no pushover, pulled out a gun from behind his back and aimed it directly at her.
“Ah!!” Crystal screamed as the bullet shattered the window next to her.
The man growled, “Come with me quietly, or you’ll be leaving with us as a body.”
Miranda’s gaze shifted from Crystal back to the man, her eyes now icy cold, with a glint of lethal intent.
“Who sent you? You get only one chance.”
The man chuckled darkly. “Sorry, lady. We’re just here to collect a paycheck. Our job is to deliver you to the boss.”
He fired a shot at Miranda’s knee! But the bullet missed its target!
Before he knew it, Miranda had moved, and a needle was already embedded in his neck! His face contorted in pain, eyes glaring at Miranda with malice.
He struggled to lift his gun again, targeting Miranda. But his movements were too slow to pose any real threat to her.

She lunged forward, delivering a swift punch to his chest. The sound of cracking ribs echoed as the force of the blow tore through his organs!
He staggered back, struggling to stay on his feet. Just as Miranda was about to finish him off, a bullet whizzed past her from behind, piercing the man’s throat!
