Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 1624

As Old Skeleton's energy was strong and immense, Zeke took more than half an hour to finish absorbing all of it.

Once Old Skeleton's powers were gone, he lay breathlessly on the ground.

Meanwhile, Zeke had been reborn into a King Class warrior.

However, he was currently a King Class warrior of the lowest level.

Since Old Skeleton had already lost more than eighty percent of his energy before Zeke started absorbing it, Zeke did not possess the same level of energy the old man did at his peak.

However, the odd thing was that right after Zeke finished sucking away the old geezer's energy, the Restrictive Spell broke.

Old Skeleton growled through gritted teeth, “You bast*rd... Just kill me now.”

Zeke shook his head and replied, “I'm sorry, but you can't die now. Tell me everything you know about the Netherworld and I'll let you live. Resisting will only make things worse for you!”

There was no way Zeke would let Old Skeleton die as he was his only connection to Netherworld.

He grabbed the old geezer up from the ground and was about to leave when Old Skeleton let out a cold chuckle and said, “Members of Netherworld will never be prisoners.”

After saying that, Old Skeleton tried to commit suicide by biting his tongue.

However, Zeke reacted quickly and delivered a swift blow to the back of his head.

With that, Old Skeleton passed out instantly.

Zeke walked along the underground river for two whole days before he managed to see some light.

Hastening his steps, he reached the exit soon after.

When he stepped out of the cave, he was greeted by a waterfall.

At the foot of the waterfall was a boundless lake. Looking at the clear lake and the bright sky, Zeke lost himself in the ethereal scenery for a moment.

Without hesitation, he leaped off the cliff of the waterfall.

A young girl about the age of eight was fishing along the shore when she witnessed the scene. Covering her mouth with her hands, she was utterly shocked.

“Grandpa didn't lie to me. The River God really exists!” she exclaimed.

For a King Class warrior like Zeke, swimming was a piece of cake.

Holding on to Old Skeleton, he quickly swam to shore.

With a smile on his face, Zeke asked the girl who was fishing, “Little girl, where's this place?”

The girl threw her fishing rod on the ground and turned around immediately. She ran off while yelling continuously, “Grandpa! The River God is here!”

This little girl...

Zeke's lips curled into a bitter smile before he chased after the little girl, carrying Old Skeleton in his arms.

His priority was to find a village where he could get some food to fill his stomach.

After following the girl's footsteps for a while, a village appeared in his sight.

The fog was thick in the serene and pleasant village. Fields surrounded the village, and a stream flowed through the middle of it, meandering toward the lake.

It felt like paradise on Earth.

Before Zeke could enter the village, a group of villagers suddenly rushed out and gathered around him, sizing him up curiously.

Zeke tensed up at once as his first instinct was to prepare for a fight.

However, after noticing that those people were not intending to harm him, the man gradually relaxed.

“May I know where this place is?” Zeke asked.

Alfred, the village head, stepped up and answered cautiously, “It's the Hunt Village.”

He then added, “Do you mind if I ask if you came from the waterfall?”

“That's right,” Zeke answered, nodding his head.

Upon hearing that, the villagers immediately grew excited and knelt down at once.

“Greetings, Mr. Williams!” they greeted in unison.

Mr. Williams?

Zeke was stunned.

I don't remember meeting them before. How do they know my name?

“Did you guys get the wrong person? I don't think I know you,” Zeke asked Alfred, feeling puzzled.

“There's no mistake,” the village head answered. “We have a portrait of you. Oh, Jeannie, bring Mr. Williams' portrait here now.”

The girl who had been fishing along the shore earlier on ran back into the village at once.

Portrait? How did they get my portrait?

Meanwhile, Old Skeleton had regained consciousness.

After scanning his surroundings in a daze, his gaze landed on Alfred.

At once, he became agitated.
