But thinking about it, it makes sense.
After all, this is a potion that can restore youth.
Not to mention how women would go crazy for it.
Wouldn't men also want to find the secret to restoring "youth" in it?
Such a big piece of cake, come to think of it, it's possible that only Donnell has come looking, and maybe it was Donnell's people who secured it.
Rhode stroked his chin.
Now that they've come knocking, it would seem a bit impolite if he didn't meet them, right?
But he doesn't really like their way of inviting him.
Rhode rested his cheek on his hand, thoughtfully tapping his temple, and smiled at the four people in their miserable states.
Instantly, several streams of mental energy surged out, instantly controlling the black-clad men present.
Rhode immediately smiled and stretched.
"Now that's better, take me to your boss."
Chapter 212: The Exquisite Young Wife in the Castle (Second Update)
Not to mention these ordinary bodyguards, even the Special Affairs Bureau people here wouldn't be able to resist Rhode's mental control.
They respectfully bowed to Rhode, and after inviting Rhode into the car, they stepped on the gas and set off.
Rhode also leisurely looked out the window, not thinking about how long it had been, only seeing the surroundings becoming quieter and quieter, and before long, they stopped in front of a huge iron gate with layers of defenses.
The person inside peeked out to look at the license plate, then got up and went to the car window, looking at each person sitting inside one by one, pausing slightly when they reached Rhode, before signaling the bodyguard to drive the car in.
The gate opened, revealing the meticulously manicured lawns and gardens inside, with several valuable and ferocious creatures kept next to some of the landscapes.
A wide road in the middle led straight to the castle in the distance.
Rhode couldn't help but click his tongue; just from the outside, this manor must be worth several hundred million dollars, right?
No wonder they're capital tycoons; even their living places are so imposing.
The bodyguards drove the car towards the castle, with the same black-clad bodyguards standing on both sides of the road, warily staring at Rhode and the others slowly entering.
The vehicle also moved slowly, taking a full few minutes to reach the front of the castle.
Only then did the bodyguards stop the car, and a black-clad man stepped forward to knock on the car window, signaling Rhode to get out.
Rhode couldn't help but frown; he opened the car door, and standing in front of him was a middle-aged man who only reached his chest, dressed in a suit and complete butler attire, looking quite presentable; he directly glanced at Rhode twice before speaking.
"Looks like you're still honest, knowing to come."
He said with a contemptuous look and a bit of arrogance: "But without the master's permission, someone like you can't freely enter or leave the manor. I'll go in and ask the master before deciding whether you stay or go."
Hoh, what a big tone.
Just the posture of the surrounding defenses is more outrageous than the President of the Lighthouse Nation; could it be that this kid thinks he can rely on this group of people to protect him and the master in the castle?
Rhode was intrigued, crossed his arms, looked calmly at the butler, and asked: "You mean to tell me to wait, so what am I supposed to do now? Just wait? Won't you invite me to sit down?"
The butler also stared at Rhode, seemingly not understanding how he could have the nerve to say such a thing.
"You just stand here now, and honestly wait for me. Only if the master is willing to see you will you be qualified to come in. If they're not willing, you can just get out, do I need to ask?
He waved his hand impatiently: "Alright, I'll go and ask the master now, you wait."
Rhode looked at him and said calmly.
"No need."
Having said that, he met the butler's surprised gaze and gently raised his hand.
"Since you like to wait, then you can kneel here and wait."
Bang!
Along with Rhode's words, the butler's body twitched twice, and his knees made a creaking sound as if they couldn't bear the weight, and finally he knelt heavily on the ground, already looking ferocious and in unbearable pain.
He raised his head and wanted to talk to Rhode, but was suppressed by Rhode's mental power, only able to let out painful wails.
This kind of pain, as if being crushed by heavy objects all over the body, is definitely not something ordinary people can bear.
"What are you doing?!"
When the surrounding bodyguards saw this, they quickly pulled out the guns from their waists and rushed towards Rhode.
Rhode sighed leisurely and looked around: "Forget it, you guys kneel down too."
He said it lightly.
But his words were like a thousand pounds, crushing down on all the bodyguards present.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Several kneeling sounds rang out one after another, and the stone bricks in front of the castle were cracked by the knees of the crowd. Everyone's faces were filled with pain, and even the weak were crushed to the point of spitting blood, making it difficult to beg for mercy, let alone struggle to escape.
"I still need a few people."
Rhode randomly pointed at a few bodyguards, and after casting a charm spell on them, they instantly obediently followed behind Rhode.
Seeing that Rhode was about to enter the door, the bodyguards directly smashed open the door in front of them and respectfully invited Rhode in.
Rhode didn't care whether doing this would completely offend the master in the castle, and strode into the castle. He simply glanced at the furnishings in the hall, walked to the sofa and sat down, put his hands on the sides of the sofa, and waved his fingers at the bodyguards who were standing there in a daze.
"Go, bring me your so-called master."
After speaking, Rhode touched his chin again.
"You," he randomly pointed at a bodyguard: "Go to your wine cellar and pick out the best bottle of wine and pour it for me."
The crowd dispersed.
Rhode sat on the sofa leisurely, leaning back, and after a while, a bodyguard ran forward with the wine, respectfully handing over the glass.
The capitalists' wine is just different.
Smooth enough.
Rhode sipped the wine, just waiting for the so-called Audilia behind the scenes to appear.
Bang!
Suddenly, a loud noise.
Several black-clad bodyguards rolled all the way down the stairs into the hall, groaning in pain on the ground, they were the bodyguards Rhode had sent to find someone just now.
Rhode raised his eyes and looked upstairs, only to see a white-skinned woman in a white bathrobe, standing lazily at the top of the stairs, looking towards him.
She chuckled softly, raising a hand to play with the golden hair at her ear, and slowly descended the stairs in her high heels.
“Mr. Rhodes, I’ve heard so much about you.”
It seemed she was indeed accustomed to a life of luxury. Her skin was delicate and soft, seemingly breakable with a touch. Her figure was voluptuous, and whether it was a natural gift or the result of technology, she was remarkably well-endowed. She possessed formidable assets both in front and behind, and her every step exuded charm. Although other parts of her body could be described as plump, her waist… tsk tsk—
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it was so slender it could be encircled with a single hand.
Her pupils were a natural amber color, and she looked at Rhodes with a smile.
The robe she wore was already loosely draped, and as she descended the stairs, it had opened wide, revealing most of her large, teardrop-shaped breasts. Although her posture was elegant, combined with her overall demeanor, it could only be described as infinitely alluring.
“I didn’t expect Mr. Rhodes to be so young.”
She leaned against the staircase railing, looking down at Rhodes, seemingly oblivious to her exposed charms. Her tone was lazy and languid, as if she were chatting with an old friend rather than a stranger.
Seeming genuinely impressed by Rhodes's youth, her gaze lingered on his lower body for a few circles, her eyes unfathomable. She leaned even lower, almost deliberately displaying her charms.
She suddenly bit her finger and giggled twice.
“From what I heard from the Liang Group, I thought Mr. Rhodes, with such abilities, must be over fifty.”
Only then did Rhodes move his eyes away from Otilia's assets. His response to Otilia's polite words was merely a shrug.
“You probably only heard my name from the Liang Group recently. Where does this 'I’ve heard so much about you' come from?”
He spoke nonchalantly, his gaze sweeping past Otilia and landing on the female bodyguard behind her.
This female bodyguard is a transcendent.
Those bodyguards from before must have been taken down by this personal bodyguard.
She seemed to be about the same age as Otilia, but her attire was much more conservative. She wore a neat suit, and her black hair was tied into a high ponytail. It didn't look like a human's ponytail but more like a foreign horse's tail, swaying incessantly.
However, despite her simple attire, it was still evident that she was well-endowed. The chest under her shirt was bulging, seemingly about to burst out, and because she was wearing a suit, her figure was also well-defined. Following the curve of her breasts downwards, there was a slender waist. Her wasp waist and shapely hips showed that she was a well-trained individual, and the muscle definition in her legs was quite beautiful.
Rhodes's blatant scrutiny was, of course, clear to Elsa. She hadn't initially taken Rhodes seriously, but the moment their eyes met, Elsa knew she would be utterly defeated.
This man is terrifyingly strong.
Even a simple glance made her feel incredibly afraid, and the hairs on her body stood on end.
She didn't know whether she felt more excited or afraid. She opened her mouth, about to speak, when she saw her employer, Otilia, stride down the stairs and quickly walk up to the dangerous man.
“I apologize for bringing you here in this manner. My men shouldn’t have used overly crude methods, right?”
She asked seemingly humbly, but her eyes were constantly scrutinizing Rhodes. Her brow furrowed slightly. If she wasn't mistaken, the red wine Rhodes was holding should be the only top-quality vintage in her wine cellar.
This guy really doesn't consider himself an outsider.
It's unclear whether she or Rhodes is the owner here.
If it were anyone else, Otilia would naturally be furious.
However, considering her purpose for inviting Rhodes and the potential profits, Otilia quickly relaxed her brow and smiled at Rhodes.
“Really? I thought they were quite polite.”
Rhodes noticed Otilia's gaze, smiled, raised his glass, and drained it in one gulp. “The hospitality is also very thoughtful.”
The bodyguard immediately stepped forward to refill Rhodes's glass, standing stiffly by his side, repeating Rhodes's commands.
Otilia raised an eyebrow and sat next to Rhodes, gesturing for the bodyguard to pour her wine.
The black-clad bodyguard remained stiff, as if she didn't even see Otilia's presence, continuing to hold the wine bottle motionlessly.
Elsa frowned, wanting to take the bottle, but Otilia stopped her with a hand.
Rhodes chuckled.
“Pour wine for your mistress.”
Rhodes pointed at Otilia.
Only then did the bodyguard stiffly step forward to pour wine for Otilia. The difference in her attitude towards the two commands could only be described as worlds apart.
Otilia looked at the bodyguard who completely disregarded her, her amber pupils narrowing slightly. Her gaze shifted back and forth between Rhodes and the bodyguard, and finally, she chuckled softly.
“It seems I underestimated Mr. Rhodes. I didn’t expect Mr. Rhodes to be a super-powered individual as well.”
As one of the wealthiest individuals in the entire Lighthouse Nation, these things couldn't be hidden from Otilia. She was not only aware that super-powered individuals were hidden among ordinary people, but she was also aware of the Special Abilities Bureau.
However, she truly hadn't expected Rhodes to be a member of the super-powered community.
In that case, things would indeed be a bit troublesome.
But the problem wasn't too significant.
Otilia's gaze slowly landed on Elsa.
After learning about the existence of such people in the world, Otilia had specifically hired several super-powered bodyguards, and Elsa was one of them.
Moreover, she had deployed more than one super-powered bodyguard around the castle.
Anyway, she wasn't short of money. For her own safety, she naturally wouldn't be stingy. Ever since discovering that the castle had been infiltrated, she had immediately notified the people around her, and they would arrive soon.
