Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2615

Monkey nodded in acknowledgment.

“Stop right there! Y-You're not... allowed to go...” Galvao glared at Zeke with bloodshot eyes as he attempted to stop them.

Nonetheless, the energy suppressing him was so overwhelming that he couldn't even move a muscle, let alone block Zeke's way.

All he could do was watch helplessly as Zeke and his men entered the cave.

Meanwhile, as the pressure weighed down on Monkey, he was hoping that it would ease once the group was inside the cave. By then, he would use the opportunity to escape.

Unfortunately, he was disappointed to learn that the pressure didn't alleviate one bit, snuffing out what little hope he had left.

Galvao roared at Monkey, “Monkey, you... you betrayed Sebastian! You deserve to die for your treachery!”

Sighing, Monkey replied, “Galvao, if only you knew who they were. You might very well be saying something different.”

Galvao gritted his teeth. “Who in the world are they? Why are they trying to rob us of our Spirit Stones?”

Monkey explained, “Actually, they are Gods, just like Theos. They are here to capture him for betraying his own kind. If I help them, they will teach me the Divine Ascendance Technique. Do you lot want to become Gods too? Just cooperate with them, and I'm sure they will offer you the same opportunity.”

Upon exchanging glances among themselves, the guards began to launch a tirade at him.

“Shut up. Do you take us for fools?”

“Hmph, only an idiot like you would believe something as ludicrous as that.”

“If you still have a conscience, you can make up for your mistake by letting us go. I'm sure Sebastian will spare your life for it.”

Monkey let out a wry laugh. “To be honest with you, I'm powerless to release you, as even I am being pinned down by this powerful force. If I don't obey them, they will simply crush me alive. Therefore, I'm forced to do this for my own survival.”

Meanwhile, Zeke and his companions proceeded deep into the cave.

It was huge and even larger than the storage facility of Southern Faction.

The realization stirred Zeke's excitement, as he felt that such a massive facility would have loads of Spirit Stones stored inside.

However, when they reached the end of the tunnel, they only found two hundred pounds of Spirit Stones.

The discovery enraged Zeke. “F*ck! How can there be so few Spirit Stones inside such a huge place?”

Sole Wolf added immediately, “Zeke, I'm sure there's more hidden inside. We just haven't found them yet.”

Ares suggested, “Sole Wolf, bring the guards here, so we can question them.”

“Right away!”

Thereafter, Sole Wolf brought Monkey and the guards inside with his energy.

Upon their arrival, the captain began swearing at them again.

In response, Sole Wolf intensified the energy he released to the extent of crushing the captain's chest. Finally, the captain begged, “I'm sorry. Please have mercy... I beg of you... I'm going to explode!”

Zeke threatened, “If you value your life, tell us where Spirit Stones are hidden.”

Galvao gulped. “You already found all of them. There's nothing else left.”

Sole Wolf sneered, “It seems that you're not keen on cooperating with us. Fine. Let's see how long you can withstand this!”

When Sole Wolf further amplified the energy he released, the captain's eyes almost popped out of their sockets, making for a terrifying sight.

Overwhelmed by the crushing pain, he continued to beg, “I... I'm telling you the truth. You do have them all. There are no more hidden Spirit Stones. Let me go, please... Let me go.”

Sole Wolf thundered, “Bullsh*t! How can there only be two hundred pounds of Spirit Stones in such a huge place? Do you think we're idiots?”

Galvao frantically explained, “Two hundred pounds is a lot. In fact, it's our entire reserve for a single season. Also, a Centuria of the Southern Faction can only gather a hundred pounds of Spirit Stone in the best of seasons.”
