Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 1818

The old monk was shocked that Stanley was losing life force, so he tried to save his disciple, but the moment the monk came near Stanley, he could feel the force draining his life force as well.

He was an old, decrepit man to begin with. There was not much life force left within him, so he quickly took a few steps back, or the force would drain him dry.

Stanley's shouts became louder and even more agonizing. “Master, save me! I-I don't want to die!”

The old monk didn't want Stanley to die just like that either. He tried using his negative energy to see if he could pull Stanley out, but the force drained all of it as well. On top of that, it even tried to drain all the negative energy in the old monk's body.

The old monk quickly cut off the connection, and without the old monk's help, Stanley's shouts quickly died down. At that point, he had lost all signs of life and was nothing more than a decrepit corpse.

The old monk gulped nervously. He's not dead. Zeke's not dead yet. Sh*t. He was telling the truth when he said he wasn't using his full power. D*mn it!

What kind of monster could come up with that kind of skill? It drains life energy and negative energy? Is that the Planetary Pull? No, Planetary Pull can only drain its target's life force, not negative energy. Besides, a regular human like him can't endure negative energy.

The old monk was out of ideas for once.

Sh*t. What kind of monster is he? Where did he even learn that skill?

Suddenly, a deafening roar came from underground, rumbling the earth with nothing but sheer fury. A moment later, a silhouette broke free from the shackles of the earth and leaped into the sky.

What was left was a gigantic crack, and as the silhouette burst into the sky, it pulled Zeke out from the earth as well.

Zeke was lying unconscious on the ground, but that was the very reason why the old monk was looking horrified. Hey, if Zeke is lying on the ground, then what the hell was that thing earlier?

He quickly looked up into the sky, only to see something he would never forget for the rest of his life. It was the creature of legends—a dragon. The dragon spanned more than twenty meters long and was flying in the air. It roared to the heavens, stirring up powerful winds wherever it went.

Holy sh*t. Where did this dragon come from?

The old monk would never know that the Fortuna dragon's self-defense mechanism was triggered the moment Zeke was in imminent danger. Right after it came out, it stared unblinkingly at the bodhisattvas in the heavens.

The desire in its eyes was overflowing, and it couldn't wait to devour all the bodhisattvas before it.

The old monk quickly calmed himself and gritted his teeth. “These pillars of light are the manifestation of tens of thousands of monks' faith over the last fifty years. No matter how powerful you are, it is impossible for you to go against all the monks' power of faith. I don't care who or what you are, but if you get in my way, I shall kill you.”

He then shouted, “Destroy the dragon!”

Once again, the pillars of light charged toward the dragon, as per what the old monk told them to.

The Fortuna dragon wouldn't back down at all. Instead, it fearlessly charged toward the pillars of light.

Eventually, they clashed, and the explosion of light that followed blinded anyone who saw it, just like how the sun would.

The old monk quickly closed his eyes, but when the light faded ever so slightly, he quickly opened his eyes to see the outcome of the battle, but what he saw plunged him into a pit of despair.

His pillars of light had dimmed drastically, and some even started to flash before fading away into the air completely.

On the other hand, the Fortuna dragon was still going as strong as ever, and not a scratch was seen on its body.

That's impossible! These bodhisattvas are five decades' worth of faith energy! How did that puny dragon manage to defeat it? W-What exactly is that thing?

The old monk refused to give in, and he shouted, “Destroy that thing!”

This time, the old monk willed all the pillars of light to come together and create a bigger bodhisattva that rivaled the Fortuna dragon in size. Once again, the bodhisattva's light returned to its zenith.

But this time, the Fortuna dragon was the first to attack. In response, the bodhisattva extended its hand to face the assault head-on.
