Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2439

Erebus snarled, “You're really a piece of trash! You can't even break past one of your opponent's barriers. You've embarrassed me!”

Warren climbed back onto the rooftop with difficulty before getting on his knees. “Elder Erebus, please forgive me! Please! There's a misunderstanding here. It's not that we couldn't break through Kush Clan's barrier, but that we were attacked by a group of warriors from Eurasia led by the Great Marshal before heading to the Secret Realm of Mount Kush. I'm sure you can imagine what it's like to be surrounded and assaulted by a group of warriors from Eurasia. It's already a miracle we managed to escape them. Nevertheless, although we escaped them, we were severely injured. Naturally, we wouldn't be able to break their barrier after that. The truth is that, if we were to head to the secret realm when we were at our peak state, we would have broken the barrier with ease.”

Erebus raised his brows in understanding. “I see. Hmph! Here I was wondering why my disciple is so weak.”

At that, Warren wiped the cold sweat off his forehead as his heartbeat slowed down.

He was glad that he was smart enough to come up with a lie to salvage some of Netherworld's reputation. Otherwise, Erebus might really end his life there and then.

However, The Guardian of Mount Kush did not believe him at all. “Only a three-year-old would believe a lie like that. Just admit it if you're not strong enough. Why must you look for excuses?”

Warren hastily said, “Elder Erebus, my godfather, Daemonium, was hurt by Eurasia's warriors and then by the barrier at the Secret Realm of Mount Kush. That's why the Great Marshal had the opportunity to kill him. Technically, this man's also partly responsible for the death of my godfather. Please, Elder Erebus, avenge my godfather!”

Erebus huffed. “Hmph! The fact that he has the guts to compete for the Fortuna with me has already marked him a dead man! I might as well avenge Daemonium while I'm at it.”

It was a bold statement.

The Guardian of Mount Kush roared, “Who knows who'll end up dead by the end of today? Take this!”

The fight began.

Warriors like them had long achieved Celestial Class. In fact, some were even above Celestial Class. Naturally, they would not engage in a close combat battle.

The Guardian of Mount Kush unleashed his mental energy while Erebus unleashed his negative energy. The two waves of energy collided midair.

Mental energy and negative energy were their most powerful attacks. Whoever lasted longer would emerge as the victor.

Both waves of energy crashed into each other, releasing a shockwave that was on the same level as one released by a nuclear explosion.

The space itself was tearing, and the air was blowing away all the clouds.

It was as if the end of the world had come.

Fortunately, both had set up a barrier that enclosed their battlefield into a small space so that the shockwaves of their attacks would not affect their surroundings.

Otherwise, everyone within the area would be dead.

Of course, that was not for the sake of Eurasia's citizens; it was only because they were worried that Eurasia would hold them accountable if the destruction they caused was too massive.

Eurasia was the sleeping lion of the east. If they were to enrage Eurasia, it would definitely utilize the nation's power to come after them and decimate them.

Of course, Eurasia would suffer a huge loss as well.

There was a reason Eurasia had not utilized the nation's power to go after them all those years— the price they would have to pay would be far too great.

Boom! Boom!

The enclosed space within the battlefield was already nothing like its original state. Despite that, the winner remained undecided.

If the battle continued, both parties would end up suffering.

Furthermore, the Fortuna had been stunned by their mighty display of power and was starting to show signs of leaving.

Upon attaining a certain amount of power, the Fortuna would develop a mind of its own.

When The Guardian of Mount Kush saw that the Fortuna was about to leave, he panicked. “Stop! Stop! We can't fight anymore!”

Erebus taunted, “Are you afraid? What a worthless man! Get lost if you are. I'll spare your life.”

“Bullsh*t!” The Guardian of Mount Kush cursed. “You're the one who's f*cking scared! Open your d*mn eyes and take a good look at the scene. Our fight is about to frighten off the ray of Fortuna! None of us will be able to get it if that happens. If the two of us fight until the end, and if Zeke comes now, he'll reap the benefits without doing anything at all. We might even have trouble staying alive by then!”
