"Roar!"
The zombies, several dozen meters away, caught the scent of a living human and howled as they rushed towards Lisa. Their grotesque faces were covered in remnants of flesh and blood, horrifying to the extreme.
Lisa's heart was instantly filled with panic. At this moment, she had lost any notion of personal boundaries or principles. The thought of being torn apart alive by these terrifying creatures sent shivers down her spine.
"No, no, I don't want to die!" She frantically ran towards the fence, attempting to climb over to the other side. However, in her panicked state and with her limited mobility, she found it even more difficult. Despite multiple attempts, she couldn't make it over.
Through the gaps in the fence, she could see Derick's cold eyes, looking at her as if she were already dead.
Although this woman, Lisa, was beautiful with fair skin and one of the most stunning faces Derick had seen among many women, possessing extraordinary beauty and a graceful figure even in her disheveled state, she held no value in this apocalypse.
Moreover, she proved to be a foolish woman who lacked capabilities and obedience. While Derick could have considered keeping her as a tool for release, it wasn't the right time.
If she couldn't understand the situation, she would die right there, and it wouldn't stir a single ripple in Derick's heart.
"Open the door! I agree, I agree to your demands. I'm willing, please... save me! I don't want to die. I'm willing to be your woman!" Lisa cried out, tears streaming down her face. By now, the zombies were less than twenty meters away.
Derick remained unmoved. Only when the zombies were five meters away from Lisa did he leap forward, wielding his axe, chopping and slashing. In an instant, the surrounding zombies were eradicated.
Holding Lisa by her collar, Derick threw her to the ground after crossing the fence. Squatting in front of her, he pinched her chin and looked into her eyes, warning her, "Remember what you said. This is just a warning this time. If there's a next time, you'll be out there with those people."
Derick patted Lisa's pretty face. "There are plenty of beautiful women in the apocalypse. If I want, I can easily find a group of women less attractive than you. Women hold no value in the apocalypse."
"Yes, yes..." Trembling under Derick's icy gaze, Lisa couldn't help but shudder, feeling a sense of fear deep within.
Derick smiled. "One more thing, remember, I'm your owner now. Choose your words carefully, show me respect, and next time, remember to speak while kneeling. Don't make me remind you." Derick pinched her cheek, as if playing with his toy.
Although Lisa wasn't stupid, she had only resisted earlier because she didn't want to be controlled and treated as a personal plaything.
But after this encounter with Derick, she became filled with fear. She clearly understood Derick's words earlier, and now, in this apocalypse, what held the least value was precisely what she was—a woman, along with money.
"Master... Master..." Lisa slowly knelt before Derick, trembling as she spoke. Her tone carried a hint of appeasement, although it was evident that she hadn't done this before, as her movements and tone seemed somewhat stiff.
Just as Derick had said, there were plenty of women in the apocalypse. If Derick wanted, he could easily find women who were more beautiful, had better figures, and were even more obedient than her.
With Derick's terrifying abilities, he could simply beckon and a group of women would crawl and beg at his feet.
In that case, what value did Lisa hold? Once there were more women around, would Derick even remember who she was?
She was even more afraid that after Derick had used her, he would treat her like a commodity and give her away to someone else. It wasn't an impossible scenario. The thought terrified her, and she trembled all over.
Lisa was a clever woman. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to become a big star based on her own abilities. It was precisely because she was smart that she had thought about many things.
She had already figured it out. Since that was the case, in order to prevent Derick from abandoning her, she had to please him as much as possible. Only then would Derick not treat her as disposable.
Derick had no idea that Lisa had pondered so much in such a short time. However, he was still very satisfied when he saw the look of appeasement in her eyes. Having such a beautiful slave was quite good.
As for Lisa's inner thoughts, if Derick knew, he would probably laugh. How could he possibly trade his woman away? Derick had a strong possessive nature and would never allow any man to touch his woman, even if it was just for casual play.
Not only that, but Derick even had plans. After he received his sister, he would build his own power and slowly dominate. There wouldn't be any men in his faction. He aimed to create a kingdom where he was the sole ruler. But those were all matters for later.
"Master... Master, do you want me? I... It's my first time..." Lisa knelt on the ground, rubbing her head against Derick's thigh and timidly said, her face even pressed against his lower body, rubbing against it. She had never been this close to a man before, and she was incredibly nervous.
Derick was still somewhat taken aback, not understanding how this woman became so obedient so quickly. However, it was for the better, saving him the trouble of thinking too much.
Although he really wanted to punish this woman on the spot, make her taste his manhood and make her beg for mercy, to comfort his eager little brother, now was not the time, and the location wasn't right.
"No need for that, just get up!"
Lisa nervously stood up, thinking that she had done something wrong and Derick was angry. She trembled with fear, resembling a startled ostrich.
"Alright, I need to go to the airport to save my sister, I don't have time now." Derick could tell what Lisa was thinking and dispelled her doubts.
Upon hearing this, Lisa finally felt a sense of relief. Her excited heart finally returned to her chest, and she felt a bit grateful. As long as Derick didn't intend to throw her away, that was enough.
"Just remember to obey me. Follow behind me and don't make any noise. Carry this on your back." Derick handed his backpack to Lisa so that she could carry it. Now he had some manual labor to do, and he didn't need to do it himself.
"Yes, Master!" Lisa also relaxed a bit, realizing that Derick wasn't too difficult to talk to as long as she obeyed. She obediently put on the backpack...
