Free Web NovelChapter 196: I Told You!
Theodore had to quickly take a step back and defend the front of his body with his sword. Theodore pushed away whatever it was that jumped at him, this time much to his surprise.
"I knew something was wrong!" Theodore’s gaze sharpened when he saw a man whose body parts had begun to look strange, indicating that he had been infected by the zombie virus.
Roxanne and Geoffrey, who were behind, could only hold their breath when they saw what happened to Theodore.
Without another thought, Theodore immediately brought his sword to behead the man, no longer giving him a chance.
"I didn’t expect him to be infected and attack you like that," Roxanne said while covering her mouth in disbelief.
Just as Theodore was about to speak, he was distracted by the sound from inside the car. Theodore’s face turned into horror when he thought that there were other people who were now zombies in the car.
Remembering that Theodore had split the car door would make it easier for the zombies inside the car to get out.
"Get back! Get in the car!" Theodore immediately shouted and told Geoffrey and Roxanne to get back into their car.
"What’s going on?!" Geoffrey, who was confused by Theodore’s shout, did not know what made him tell them to get into the car.
"Now that’s not important. Hurry back to the car." Fortunately, Roxanne immediately realized that they were in danger, so she pulled Geoffrey’s hand towards their car.
"I hope there aren’t many people in that car," Theodore muttered in horror.
Theodore himself didn’t want to be there any longer, so he walked back to the car, following Geoffrey and Roxanne, who had already walked ahead. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
However, as Theodore had expected, about 3 zombies jumped out of the car and started chasing Theodore, who was closest to it.
Fortunately, their car was not too far away so Roxanne and Geoffrey could get into the car easily. Meanwhile, Theodore himself had to run faster in order to get into the car while being chased by zombies.
"Please open the back door for me!" Theodore shouted at Roxanne and Geoffrey, who were already in the car.
"Hurry up, brother Theo!" Geoffrey’s face looked pale when he saw Theodore being chased by zombies.
When he was near the car door, Theodore turned around and activated his Wind Slash skill to repel the zombies chasing him.
After that, Theodore got into the car and closed the door. At the same time, Roxanne, who was behind the wheel, immediately stepped on the gas pedal and took their vehicle away from that place.
Theodore, who was in the back seat, sat down with his breath taken away. He didn’t expect to be running for his life as soon as he woke up.
Everyone was silent at that moment, no one dared to open their voices especially Roxanne, she felt guilty after what happened to Theodore.
However, Theodore could see that Roxanne glanced at him several times through the rearview mirror. Theodore knew that Roxanne’s intention was good to help others, but it seemed like he had to give her an explanation about the current state of the world.
Not only that, Theodore thought that they needed to make rules within their group so that this kind of incident would not happen again in the future.
It would be hazardous for them if they got into a situation like that. It was very likely that one of them could be infected by the zombie virus if they didn’t implement rules.
"Looks like we need some rules for this group," Theodore said, finally breaking the silence between them.
"Rules?" Geoffrey, who was still sitting beside Theodore, frowned when he heard Theodore’s words.
"Should we do it?" Roxanne also looked confused this time.
"Yes, so that something like this doesn’t happen again. You know what happened earlier was very dangerous and I could have been infected if I didn’t dodge quickly," Theodore explained with a flat face.
Roxanne winced when she heard Theodore’s words; she realized now that her stubbornness could get Theodore hurt, and she didn’t want that to happen again to Theodore.
"If you put it that way, then I guess we do need rules," Roxanne replied, finally agreeing to Theodore’s suggestion.
"I hope you don’t make the rules difficult," Geoffrey said with a grimace as he glanced at Theodore, who was looking very serious at the moment.
"Of course not. We made these rules to keep this group alive and able to survive in this ruined world," Theodore said then with a smirk on his face.
"So, what are the rules?" Roxanne, who was listening to Theodore’s words, began to wonder what the rules would be.
"My rules: When we find people in need of help, we must not act immediately, first monitor their situation and then decide whether they deserve to be helped," Theodore said with a severe face.
"Alright. Can I add something?" Roxanne nodded her head in acceptance, but she also intended to add to their rules.
"Sure, for now the three of us can add rules one by one," Theodore replied with no objection.
"I’ll add them then. We’ll have to vote when there’s a problem and need to decide something," Roxanne continued regarding her rules.
"Not bad, it will be very useful." Theodore nodded his head and agreed with Roxanne’s rules.
Then, Theodore turned to Geoffrey, who was silent and didn’t say anything.
"Your turn. What rules would you like to add?" Theodore nudged the shoulder of Geoffrey, who was sitting next to him.
"Can I add a rule too?" Geoffrey looked confused as he saw Theodore staring at him, waiting for him to add a rule to their group.
"Of course, aren’t you part of this group?" Theodore frowned in confusion.
Geoffrey just laughed awkwardly while scratching his cheek, and then he started thinking about what rules he could add to help their group grow.
"Lately we’ve started to see that there are a lot of bad people in this world now. And there’s also the possibility that outsiders will try to betray us in the future, so I was thinking of adding something about this," Geoffrey finally explained.
"No matter what happens we must trust the word of the members of this group and no one should betray us," Geoffrey continued with a hesitant look. freewēbnoveℓ.com
Theodore patted Geoffrey’s shoulder lightly, "That’s good. Would anyone like to add anything else?"
"I think that’s enough for now," Roxanne replied with a smile on her face.
For some reason, Roxanne had not expected Geoffrey to think that way, and she felt that she needed to think about what she would do in the future so as not to burden her friends.
