“This is the safe place you mentioned? What kind of place is this?” Rhodes asked with a frosty expression on his face as he looked at the building in front of him.

“It’s where I used to have my dates. Don’t worry. This place is very hidden,” Beth said honestly. She did not care since many people, including Rhodes, knew about her past. It was no secret since she was living very well. There was nothing for her to hide.

Rhodes, on the other hand, was a little skeptical about the place Beth brought them to.

“I can guarantee that there aren’t many people here, and it’s safe enough,” Beth said confidently. This place was quite isolated, making it a perfect place for her to meet her ex-boyfriends. Moreover, it was less likely for her to run into people from the university here. Since she dated men outside of the university, she had chosen this place.

If it were not for her dates, Beth would not even come to such a small alley. If she was asked where the safest place was in the vicinity of the university, this was definitely the place. With how hidden this place was and Rhodes’ strength, her safety would be guaranteed.

“What do you think? Are you satisfied with this place?” Beth asked with a look of satisfaction. She was trying to prove her worth to Rhodes. Clearly, she had lost her earlier contempt toward him.

Rhodes looked at Beth and only nodded in response. Indeed, he could not have found a better place than this. It seemed like she had some use, after all. He was not wrong when he assumed she knew her way around the area around the university.

Rhodes planned to rest and wait until Julie’s condition stabilized before leaving the university’s area. At that time, he would part ways with Beth. Naturally, he did not voice his plans out. In any case, everything would have to wait until Julie was stable.

Rhodes gently lowered Julie to the ground before he went in first. Although this place was hidden, there was no guarantee there was no one around. He slowly pulled out his knife, intending to kill all the zombies here.

When he kicked open the door, a woman’s scream rang in the air.

“Don’t come over!”

A man and a woman were hiding in a corner of the room, shivering in fear. It was as though they had just gone through a battle.

The woman was not even dressed properly. She was obviously not wearing a bra under her short shirt.

Meanwhile, the man next to her was holding a gun. He looked at Rhodes in fear.

When the duo saw the person who rushed in was human, the look in their eyes changed from fear to surprise, and then to greed. They had been trapped here for a day. There was no food or water. There were zombies outside so they did not dare to go out and search for supplies. They only hid in the house. Thankfully, the place was very hidden, helping them to avoid the hordes of zombies. However, they were starving now. If they did not eat, they would go crazy soon.

The woman spoke first. “Do you have… water or food on you?”

If they could get supplies without violence, it would be the best. They did not want to waste their bullets needlessly. Moreover, if they made too much of a commotion, they would attract the zombies. At that time, all of them would die.

Rhodes did not act recklessly once he saw the gun in the man’s hand. Although his body and strength had improved, he did not want to try to see if he was bulletproof. To avoid conflict, he took out a bottle of water and bread from his backpack and placed it in front of the duo.

“Is there no one else here apart from both of you?” Rhodes asked the woman.

“There’s no one here. If there were, we wouldn’t have been able to hold on until now.”

Meanwhile, the man grabbed the water and the bread in a hurry. After that, he hurriedly drank from the bottle. He tore the wrapper and quickly ate the bread. Then, he almost finished the entire bottle and only left a measly amount for the woman.

“This isn’t enough to fill my stomach at all,” the man complained as he looked at Rhodes with a face filled with longing. He did not care at all that the woman next to him did not get to eat at all.

Rhodes frowned. “I don’t have much here so I can’t give you any more.” He had decided to give in seeing as the man had a gun. He did not expect the man to be so greedy.

“You f*cker! Your backpack is bulging! You must have a lot of supplies in there! Leave your bag here and go!” The man seemed to have gone insane. His emotions ran high as though he was on drugs.

The woman chimed in at this moment, “He has a gun. Why aren’t you listening to him?”

“If you don’t give it to me, you’ll f*cking die!”

Upon hearing the man’s threats, Rhodes’ expression turned icy. He reached out and brought the backpack in front of him. He slowly unloaded the things in the bag. There were quite a lot of supplies and low-level, or level-one, energy crystals in the bag.

The man laughed when he saw how obedient Rhodes was. “You didn’t even try to put up a fight? How weak!” His mood had clearly lifted upon seeing that he was about to obtain a lot of supplies.

“Rhodes, what happened?” Beth called out. Seeing that Rhodes had not returned after such a long time and there was no sound of fighting, she decided to take a look. Naturally, she had ulterior motives. If Rhodes somehow died here, she definitely would die as well. Whether she lived or died depended entirely on him for now.

Although she was standing behind Rhodes, the man in the room saw her in her exposed state. Her breasts were too alluring; not many men would be able to resist them.

“Come over here!” the man shouted as he raised his gun.

Beth, who was unaware of what was happening inside, was startled by the sudden shout. It was out of her expectation that there were people in there. She lamented inwardly, ‘It’s over! I just promised him no one would be here!’

Beth did not expect her words would backfire on her. She did not dare to look at Rhodes at all.

The man continued staring at the exposed Beth. Why would such a beauty follow a piece of trash? What a waste! Truly, today was his lucky day. Not only was supplies delivered to him, but a beautiful woman was also delivered to him. He said domineeringly, “The woman stays as well. You can get lost now!”

“Are these your last words?” Rhodes asked.

“What?”

Before the man could react, what seemed like a streak of white light charged into the house.

Swoosh!

It was so fast that no one could react in time.

In just a second, the hand that was holding the gun was severed.

Earlier, while the man was distracted by Beth, Rhodes had drawn his knife from his back. At this distance, he was confident he would be faster than the bullet from the gun. Therefore, he charged in at an incredible speed and severed the man’s arm. His speed was so fast that he created a sound wave when he moved.

Ordinary humans could not hope to compare to Rhodes. The man did not even have time to resist before his arm had fallen to the ground. He seemed to be in a daze at this moment. When blood began to spurt out from his wound, he finally regained his senses and began to scream!

The man’s blood painted the entire place red.

“Don’t f*cking scream.”

There was another flash of movements before the man’s head fell off his neck.

Following that, the woman began to scream.
