Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2260

Rick and the others sped up and charged toward Cesar.

However, having grown used to subordinates rushing forward to kneel before him and greet him respectfully in Dullioud, Cesar didn't realize that something was wrong.

He thought Rick and the others were running toward him because they wanted to kneel before him and greet him.

When they almost reached him, Cesar scolded, “How dare you leave without my permission and come to Durbaine? Kneel before me right now! I shall teach you a lesson today...”

Before Cesar could finish, Rick punched him in the face with his enormous fist.

Bang!

A tooth fell out of Cesar's mouth as he stumbled and fell backwards.

Afterward, Rick and the others pinned Cesar to the ground and punched him.

Cesar was dumbstruck because he never expected Rick to have the nerves to hit him.

After a few seconds, the sharp pain from the beating drew him back to reality.

“You scumbags! Rick Baker! You must be out of your mind!” Cesar bellowed madly like a beast. “Get out of my way or you will regret this! Such disrespect will land you with a death sentence! F*ck! Stop hitting my face!”

Instead of stopping, Rick and the others kicked and punched Cesar harder.

“You want us to get out of your way? In your dreams! I'll beat you to death today!”

“Let's not count the number of times you've bullied me and my friend back in Dullioud just because the Dullioud Supreme trusts you. How can you do such a horrible thing to Dullioud?”

“If I don't kill you today, I won't be doing their poor souls justice!”

In just a few minutes, Cesar was nearly beaten to death. The pain was unbearable.

If Daemonium still didn't help him, he would be beaten to death soon enough.

Since Cesar was on the brink of death, he couldn't care less if he exposed Daemonium's presence. “Help, Master! Help me...”

As Daemonium still needed Cesar to do his bidding, he would not turn a blind eye to his plea.

However, he would not risk showing himself in case Zeke was preparing to ambush him nearby.

At the instant Daemonium released his energy, a shock wave similar to an explosion rippled through the air, sending Rick and the others flying.

After landing on the ground, they rolled for a few meters before coming to a stop.

When they finally came to a stop, their bodies had been covered with blood.

Although the pain was unbearable, they were more terrified by the fact that there was a warrior attacking from the dark.

Judging from the attacker's moves, which were exactly the same as Zeke's, the attacker was possibly a warrior at the same level as him.

As the murderous aura in the area became stronger, Rick exchanged glances with his friends because they knew they were in the type of situation that Zeke would want to be notified of immediately.

Without hesitation, Rick took out a stick from his pocket and prepared to snap it in half.

When Daemonium saw the stick in Rick's hands from his hideout, his eyes lit up in realization.

Sensing Zeke's energy on the stick, he guessed that the stick was used by Rick to communicate with Zeke.

Once the stick was snapped into half, Zeke would be able to detect the rippling energy coming from the stick and rush to their aid.

It meant that Zeke wasn't on the spot!

Since he wasn't present, things were easier for Daemonium.

With just a vague wave, Daemonium channeled enough energy to pull the stick out of Rick's hands.

Rick immediately turned pale because the stick was their trump card. Now that the stick was in Daemonium's hands, they were likely to be dead in a few minutes.

Enduring the excruciating pain all over his body, Rick lunged at Daemonium and tried to snatch the stick back.

However, Daemonium used his energy to hold Rick back. With a plop, Rick fell to his knees before Daemonium.
