Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2616

Sole Wolf refuted him, “Nonsense. The Southern Faction has a thousand pounds of Spirit Stones in storage.”

“That's the cumulative total for the entire Southern Faction which has more than ten Centurias added together. What you have here is the reserve for a single Centuria. Obviously, it isn't a fair comparison.

If you're really looking for more Spirit Stones, you can find them in the storage belonging to the Northern Faction's leader. He's the one who has the largest reserve among us all.

Sole Wolf replied thoughtfully, “Mmm-hmm, that makes sense.”

Subsequently, Zeke ordered Sole Wolf, “Take care of them. After that, we'll go borrow some Spirit Stones from the leader of the Northern Faction.”

Monkey smiled wryly. How can you call this borrowing?

In response, Sole Wolf increased the intensity of his energy, knocking the guards out as a result.

Just as he proceeded to do the same to Monkey, the latter pleaded, “Guys, wait. Please let me join you, as I no longer have a future here. I promise I'll be a big help to you. Don't you want to find more Spirit Stones? I know which Centuria has the most and can lead you to them. In fact, I know the leader of the Northern Faction. I can help all of you sneak into the base and steal Spirit Stones from under their noses.”

After giving the matter some thought, Zeke nodded in the end. “Fine. I'll give you a chance.”

Who knows, he might be of good use after all.

Once they were done, Zeke updated Phoenix before leaving for his next destination.

Meanwhile, Phoenix was having a pleasant chat with Sebastian.

When he saw that the time was ripe, Sebastian remarked, “Phoenix, as you were formerly a Centurion within the Southern Faction, I will make sure that you are treated accordingly now that you're joining me. Why don't you come to my room where we can discuss your benefits.”

His words caused her heart to sink, for Phoenix had no illusion about Sebastian's agenda.

It was now clear to her that she was running out of time.

While secretly praying that Levi would be done soon, she replied, “Sebastian, why don't we talk here instead? Given how hot the weather is, it's so much more comfortable to stay here.”

Displeasure flashed across Sebastian's face. “That's not acceptable. As an honored guest of ours, it would be rude for me to entertain you outside like this. If word gets out, my reputation would be ruined! Now, come with me.”

Sebastian spoke with a hint of coercion before walking off to his room.

While Phoenix was still hesitating, Sebastian's subordinates came up to her on both sides. “Ms. Phoenix, this way, please. We shouldn't let Sebastian wait.”

After weighing her options, Phoenix gritted her teeth as she gradually followed him into the room.

Zeke, oh Zeke, are you guys done yet? At this rate, I'll be in trouble soon.

The moment the anxious Phoenix entered the room, Sebastian locked the door behind her.

Phoenix asked, “Sebastian, why are you locking the door in broad daylight?”

Sebastian smirked in response. “Isn't it obvious?”

Despite her growing panic, Phoenix hid it well. “Sebastian, didn't you say that you want to talk to me about my benefits? Let's do so now.”

Sebastian broke into a lecherous grin. “There's no hurry at all. We can discuss it after you pleasure me. As long as I'm satisfied, I'll give you whatever you desire. Haha!”

No sooner had Sebastian spoken than he threw himself at Phoenix.

Shocked by his actions, Phoenix dodged immediately. “Sebastian, I'm here to join you. For goodness’ sake, how can you do this to me? Even if you want to have a relationship with me, you will have to take time to develop it. It's wrong for you to try and force yourself on me.”

Sebastian snapped, “Quit wasting time, Phoenix. You're well aware of how long I have been salivating over you. After such a long wait, you've finally come. There's no way I can hold myself back for a second longer. Now, stop trying to flee!”

Sebastian lunged at her again.

When Phoenix desperately resisted, a fight broke out between the two.
