Chapter: 145
What a venomous bite the snake had!
“Give me the antidote!” Dustin slammed his foot onto the guard’s head, scowling.
“Only if you let me go. Or else, Ms. Harmon will be going down with me!” the guard responded with a sardonic sneer.
“Are you threatening me?” asked Dustin with narrowed eyes.
“I know you’re an incredible doctor, Rhys! But this venom was created by an expert and cannot be cured without the antidote!”
“You bastard! I’ll kill you if you don’t give us the antidote!” Furious, Ruth charged forward and began beating the guard up.
“Go ahead! Once I’m dead, Ms. Harmon will be following me, too!” Ruth instantly halted her attack.
“Don’t say I never warned you. She’s been poisoned by a powerful venom. She’ll be dead within half an hour.” the guard stated menacingly.
“Give me the antidote and I promise to let you live,” vowed Dustin with a cold expression.
“Why should I believe you?” The guard frowned.
“You don’t have a choice. If she dies, I’ll make your life a living hell!” Dustin glowered.
The guard hesitated and pondered for a moment before suddenly asking.
“If I tell you the cure, will you let me go?”
“I’m a man of my word,” answered Dustin.
“Alright. I’ll trust you this time!” The guard gritted his teeth.
“Actually, there isn’t an antidote for this venom. The only way for her to live is if someone sucked out the venom using their mouth. However, the person who does it will most likely lose their life. So, it depends on whether you have the guts to do it.” The guard sniggered. 1
“Thanks for the advice,” Dustin nodded. Immediately, he slammed his foot onto the guard’s chest, crushing the man’s ribs and caused his internal organs to burst out with a splat.
Blood burst from the guard’s mouth as his eyes widened in disbelief.
“Y–You said you wouldn’t kill me.”
“Sorry. I changed my mind,” Dustin answered nonchalantly.
“Y–you have no honor…” Before the guard could say anything else, he suffocated and died.
“So what?” Dustin asked the dead body.
Everyone was dumbfounded by his cavalier attitude. Suddenly, they realized that this innocuous person might be quite the barbarian after all.
After killing the traitor, Dustin carried the weakened Natasha to the car.
The area where the snake had bitten her had turned black and purple, and as the venom spread through her body, her entire leg turned numb.
