14 Killing Zombies In Just An Instant

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It only took a few minutes before zombie limbs were strewn all over the corridor.

Rhodes remained expressionless as though he was doing some mundane chore.

Every slash and strike was precise as he decapitated the zombies.

After he was done with killing the zombies, he went through the severed head and searched the brains for energy crystals. He was rather lucky; he killed slightly more than ten zombies and managed to obtain five energy crystals. This could be considered food for Julie in the future.

Rhodes looked at the bloodied low-level energy crystals happily. As long as he could cure Julie, it was nothing if he had to suffer a little.

Then, he shook the blood off his knife before he sheathed it and returned to the apartment.

Meanwhile, Beth was still in shock. If she told people on the campus that Rhodes single-handedly killed more than a dozen agitated zombies, they would have called her crazy. If she did not witness it for herself, she would have thought it was crazy as well.

Jeffrey, who was lying on the ground with only a little consciousness left, was shocked as well. He did not expect this good-for-nothing from the university could easily kill so many zombies. If it were him, he was not certain he could kill even one zombie. With this display of strength, he had completely given up and had no desire for revenge at all.

When he saw that Rhodes had returned, he struggled to speak with his last breath, "Rhodes, on account that we were classmates, please spare me this time. I was wrong for provoking you and looking down on you… You can just treat me as trash." At this moment, tears and snot flowed freely down his face. He acted as though he had turned over a new leaf.

Rhodes did not even spare a glance at Jeffrey who was lying on the ground and glanced at Beth casually. Then, he picked up Julie who was still struggling on the ground before he took an energy crystal out and stuffed it into her mouth. He finally decided to feed her energy crystals.

After she was fed with the energy crystal, Julie became like a child who was given candy.

Silence fell.

Rhodes' eyes were filled with tenderness as he looked at her. He carried her on his back and strode out of the room. The stench of blood was too strong here. It was no longer suitable to stay here.

At this moment, Beth finally reacted. She did not care about her exposed body and hurried after Rhodes. How could she let go of such a good opportunity? If one wanted to rely on a person during the apocalypse, naturally, it would be best to rely on the strongest person! She did not know if Rhodes was the strongest, but he was definitely strong enough! There would only be hope for her if she followed him. She did not pay attention to Jeffrey at all as she rushed out.

Beth's behavior did not escape Jeffrey's notice. He could only watch them leave as his eyes burned with hatred and vengeance. "Rhodes! Julie! Beth! You better not fall into my hands… Otherwise, you'll wish you had died instead!" He winced from the pain after he cursed at the trio.

Grr! Grr! Grr!

At this moment, Jeffrey heard deep growling noises approaching him. When he looked up, he saw a few zombies staring at him outside the window.

Coupled with the smell of blood, the zombies' eyes turned red when they saw a human lying on the ground.

Blood!

Flesh!

They rammed against the window in a frenzy, immune to pain.

Jeffrey watched as cracks began to form on the window. He screamed hysterically, "Get lost! No! No!"

...

Rhodes heard the screaming and quickly sped up. Since Jeffrey had such disgusting intentions toward Julie, how could he spare Jeffrey?

The smell of blood in the house would attract a large number of zombies sooner or later. He decided to use Jeffrey as bait to lure all the zombies away.

Rhodes was not a bad guy, but it did not mean he did not get angry.

Moreover, the apocalypse brought out the worst in people, and he was just trying to protect himself.

Now that it was no longer viable to stay in that apartment, he needed to find a safe place for him where he could hide Julie. It was going to be difficult to find such a place. After all, he was sure everyone was frantically looking for a safe place as well.

Even an apartment with lingering zombies attracted people like Jeffrey. One could only imagine how difficult it was to find a safe place.

If he could not find a safe place to hide Julie, it would not be long before Julie would be exposed and treated like a zombie.

Rhodes was deep in his thoughts as he carefully navigated around the hordes of zombies.

At this moment, a voice rang from behind him. "Are you looking for a place..."

It was Beth. She was panting at this moment. She had been following Rhodes since the beginning, and she was hardly clothed. If it was before, she would have been surrounded by people. However, now that they were in an apocalyptic world, the zombies had no interest in her breasts at all. They were only interested in her blood and flesh. After she caught her breath, she said, "I know of a safe place, and there shouldn't be anyone there."

Beth had followed Rhodes and easily the hordes of zombies because of him. She was even more certain now that the man in front of her had concealed himself deeply. Otherwise, how could he suddenly have such keen senses and be so skilled at killing zombies?

With these thoughts in her mind, Beth could not help but look at Julie, jealous. In this apocalyptic world, Julie had already become a zombie, and yet, Rhodes still loyally stayed by her side. Rhodes was definitely a good man. If such a person was her man…

Beth looked at Rhodes in front of her. She did not believe the virgin boy would not surrender himself to her in the end. Julie was just a zombie now. It would not affect them at all. A man and a woman together. She did not believe nothing would happen in the end.

Meanwhile, Rhodes turned to look at Beth. He could see the slightly ingratiating expression on her face. He did not trust her at all. He knew she had no one to rely on so he could make use of her. Therefore, he did not refuse her. He looked at her coldly and said, "You know what will happen if you provoke me. Lead the way."

Rhodes knew Beth was far more familiar with this area than him. She had been here for a long time so she must know of some good hiding places. However, if she tried to trick him… If it did not matter if a person was a man, a woman, or a zombie, if they tried to harm him, he would kill them all!

Rhodes tightened his grip on his knife as he moved aside to let Beth lead the way. All he had to do was help her avoid the zombies.

There were more and more zombies wandering outside now. The longer time passed, the harder it would be for humans to survive. He wondered how his parents were faring. They lived in the countryside so it should not be as bad as the city. He decided to try and contact his parents and Julie's parents after he had dealt with Julie's matter.

...

Beth led Rhodes and Julie down a path filled with twists and turns.

Finally, they arrived at the end of an alley.

Beth used to meet men here.

Rhodes looked at the place in front of him with a strange expression on his face.
