Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2614

Obviously, Monkey didn't believe Sole Wolf.

Does he think he can fool me with such an outlandish story? F*cking Gods. What a load of bull.

The only reason he pretended to believe them was to buy time for his escape.

Unexpectedly, Sole Wolf gave Monkey a slap. “D*mn it, I can't even fool you. Is my acting really that bad?”

Despite his outrage over being slapped, Monkey didn't dare show it. Instead, he remarked pitifully, “I already said that I believe you.”

Sole Wolf snapped, “Believe my *ss. The look on your face clearly says otherwise. Whatever it is, bring us to the location where the stones are kept. If you dare try anything funny, I'll squash you like a bug!”

No sooner had Sole Wolf spoken than he increased the intensity of his energy, crushing Monkey to the point of suffocation and causing him to feel as if all his bones were about to be shattered.

It was a terrible sensation indeed.

Terrified, Monkey pleaded, “Mercy, I beg of you. I'll definitely obey whatever you tell me to do.”

Although Monkey didn't believe that they were Gods, he still wasn't certain of their true identity.

A single move by them was enough for him to realize how powerful his foes were, leaving him no choice but to take them to Spirit Stones.

Weighing Spirit Stones—which belonged to Sebastian—against his own life, he had no doubt as to where the balance of scales was tipped.

Consequently, Monkey led Zeke and his companions to where the stones were kept. Throughout the journey, he didn't dare try anything funny, for fear of being crushed upon sparking their suspicions.

After leading the group through a bush, Monkey pointed to a cave in front. “The Spirit Stone is kept inside there. it's a restricted area that can only be accessed with Sebastian's written instructions.”

Zeke replied, “Go on ahead. We'll take care of everything.”

“Okay,” Monkey responded fearfully before steeling himself to proceed.

Guarding the cave entrance was a group of eight formidable fighters who noticed Zeke's group approaching when they were still thirty meters away.

Galvao of the guards bellowed, “Who goes there? Show yourself! This is a restricted area. We'll kill you if you take one more step forward.”

Monkey yelled out at once. “Galvao, it's me, Monkey.”

Even though Galvao's voice subsequently eased, he still maintained a sense of vigilance. “Oh, it's you, Monkey. What are you doing here?”

Monkey quickly explained, “Sebastian ordered us to take stock of Spirit Stones. He's worried that there might be issues, as he's going to offer them as a tribute to the Legatus.”

Galvao replied, “But Sebastian just sent someone to do the same two days ago. Why would he want to take stock again in such a short time?”

Monkey began to panic but maintained a calm facade. “One can never be too careful. I'm sure you know how meticulous Sebastian is.”

After Galvao gave Monkey a look, skepticism began to fill his eyes. “In that case, where's Sebastian's written order? Given how important this is, he would definitely have given you one.”

Galvao's words frustrated Monkey. Would I still be speaking so politely with you if I had one? I would have f*cking barged my way in!

Just when Monkey had run out of ideas, Sole Wolf suddenly sighed. “Monkey, you're nothing but a f*cking piece of trash. How can you fail to deal with a bunch of dumb*sses like them?”

Thump!

Galvao instantly sensed something amiss from Sole Wolf's words.

Before he could warn everyone else, a powerful force pounded him down to his knees.

When he looked at his fellow guards, he realized that they, too, were kneeling on the ground.

“What's going on!” Galvao painstakingly eked out a few words. “W-What sort of power is this!”

Sole Wolf instructed Monkey, “Keep an eye on them while I take stock of Spirit Stones.”
