Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2291

The Progenitor pleaded, “Master, please have mercy. I admit my mistake.”

Zeke explained to Dawn, “Dawnie, I brought the worm to help treat your sickness. The process might hurt, so please bear with it.”

Dawn nodded.

As the Progenitor flew into the air, it flapped its wings vigorously as if to resonate with the Heart-Bound Worms in Dawn's body.

As it wasn't easy to forcefully achieve resonance with other worms and compel them into obedience, the Progenitor wasn't confident in doing so.

With its head drenched in sweat, it was finally exhausted. However, it still wasn't successful despite running out of energy to flap its wings.

Consequently, Progenitor had no choice but to give up. “I-I can't do this anymore. I can't hold it any longer. It seems I have underestimated the Heart-Bound Worm. You had better find someone else who's more capable.”

Furrowing his brows, Zeke ordered, “No, Dawn is the last living person in the world who is of the Dragon Bloodline. Can you bear to see her die?”

Progenitor replied, “Don't worry, she won't lose her life. At most, she will be controlled by someone else, just like a puppet. Besides, I've tried my very best and have reached the limit of my powers. The person who implanted the worm in her is definitely not someone to be trifled with.”

Zeke insisted, “You're not allowed to give up. Continue trying.”

Progenitor snapped, “Try your a*s! I have no way of achieving resonance with the Heart-Bound Worm in her body.”

Dawn suddenly clarified, “Wait, are you trying to match the frequency of your vibrations to those of the Heart-Bound Worm?”

The Progenitor nodded. “Exactly.”

Dawn suggested, “That's simple then, for I can control the frequency of its vibration. All we need to do is to coordinate with each other.”

The Progenitor was surprised. “That's impossible. How can you exert such control?”

Dawn retorted, “Don't you believe me? Let me prove it to you.”

Zeke suddenly interjected, “Dawnie, can you hear the Progenitor's voice?”

The moment Zeke brought the matter up, the Progenitor realized the significance of what just happened.

I have just communicated with Dawn telepathically!

It looked at Dawn with glistening eyes. “That's right, you can actually hear my voice?”

Dawn made a cutesy face. “Why? Am I not supposed to hear it speak? Its voice is so loud that I can hear it clearly. Nancy, Lacey, can't you hear the worm's voice?”

Lacey and Nancy threw her a confused look. “Hear what? How can the worm speak?”

All they heard just now was Zeke talking to himself.

As Zeke and the Progenitor exchanged glances, both of them arrived at the same conclusion.

Dawn was of the Dragon Bloodline, which shared the same ancestors as the Progenitor. Since both of them evolved from the Dragon Race, it wasn't unexpected for them to be able to communicate telepathically.

Dawn patted her head at the sudden realization. “That's right, how can a worm talk? It's really strange. Do you have a voice box? How did you manage to speak so loudly with such a small mouth? If I bring it to the pet market, I'm sure I can sell it for tens of millions! By the way, Lacey, Linton Group can now be saved. Why don't we sell the worm and use the proceeds to help the company out of its crisis?”

The Progenitor was stumped.

Damn it! How dare you! How dare you insult my holy honor by attempting to sell me off?

Lacey asked, “Dawnie, don't you like small pets? Why do you want to sell it?”

Dawn replied, “It's true that I have a soft spot for them, but I love money more.”

Lacey nodded thoughtfully. “Mmm-hmm, if the worm does know how to speak, it would definitely fetch a good price.”

At that moment, the three ladies turned toward Zeke to hear his opinion.
