Truth be told, since they had decided to engage in such acts, they were prepared from the start.
After all, it's rare to walk by the river and not get your shoes wet.
Yet, today they truly stumbled spectacularly, a downfall none had anticipated.
No one expected the trio before them—two men and a woman—to be so formidable, utterly stripping them of any ability to resist.
Their leader's situation was now a complete unknown—whether he could ever have his hand reattached was still up in the air.
Modern medicine, though advanced, required the right circumstances and capabilities to work such miracles.
If they were utterly powerless, or worse, dead on the spot, then no level of medical advancement could bring back the dead!
A chill began to creep into everyone's hearts, fear taking hold.
Some even regretted their decision to provoke this group today.
