Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2698

Thirty thousand kilograms of rations is enough to feed more than a thousand people for nearly three months! Why do they need that much food? Even if they spend the rest of their lives just eating, I doubt they can finish all those rations themselves! Upon taking in a deep breath, Northern King asked in a trembling voice, “D-Did I hear that right, Masters? Y-You want thirty thousand kilograms of rations?”

Killer Wolf nodded. “What's the matter? Do you think it's too hard? If you do, then forget about it. I don't think your life's worth thirty thousand kilograms of rations either.”

Just as he completed his sentence, he turned around with the other two, preparing to leave.

Alarmed, Northern King begged, “Please don't leave me here, Masters! I'll give you thirty thousand kilograms of rations! Save me, please!”

The trio frowned.

When they voiced their demand earlier, they were expecting Northern King to negotiate.

To their surprise, he agreed to their demand without hesitation, which made them regret not asking for more.

Thus, they decided to go against their word.

Sighing, Killer Wolf remarked, “It's such a pain to rescue you. I alone can't do it. How about we work together, Tyler?”

As he spoke, he glanced at Tyler.

Tyler understood his intentions and played along. “Fine, let's work together. However, I'll be taking twenty thousand kilograms of rations out of the thirty thousand.”

With a dissatisfied tone, Killer Wolf retorted, “Why do you get twenty thousand?”

“I deserve to get more because I'm putting in more work.”

“Now you're bemusing me. We're supposed to save this little sh*thead together, so why are you saying you're putting in more work?”

“I'm taking the twenty thousand kilograms, whether you like it or not. It's up to you if you want to save him.”

“I'm not an idiot, you know. You're not going to play me like that. I'd rather leave him here than let you get more than me.”

“Then let's just forget about this. It's a pain in the butt to save him, anyway.”

Northern King was on the verge of a mental collapse listening to their act. Are you three really taking me for a fool? Even an idiot can see you two are attempting to raise the price for my rescue! This isn't even good acting! Still, what choice do I have but to submit to their demand?

Hence, he bitterly offered, “Please stop arguing with each other. I'm willing to provide forty thousand kilograms of rations. This way, both of you can get twenty thousand each. Is that all right?”

Tyler and Killer Wolf agreed without hesitation, “Deal.”

“Then please save me—”

Before Northern King could finish his sentence, the duo waved their hands at him in unison. The energy that was trapping him instantly dissipated.

While he had regained his freedom, he felt extremely awful. And you two said it's a pain to remove the energy binding me! You two literally only waved your hands! It's even easier than taking a piss because you'd have to pull down the zipper first! Now I'm wondering if they're working with that Sole Wolf to scam me!

Killer Wolf threatened, “Now, deliver the forty thousand kilograms of rations to us. If I find out we received even a gram less than what you promised, you'll pay with your life.”

“Of course, of course.” Northern King nodded. “There's just one more thing I would like to mention. A small favor, if you will.”

Swiftly, Alfred inquired, “What is it that you need?”

He felt a little bummed out as Killer Wolf and Tyler had each earned twenty thousand kilograms of rations, but he hadn't gotten any.

Therefore, he was excited when Northern King mentioned a favor because that meant an additional opportunity for him to obtain some rations.

Hurriedly, Northern King explained, “You see, a mighty enemy has recently threatened Northern Faction's existence. I'm too powerless to stop him alone, so I'm hoping the three of you can help me out.”

Killer Wolf grinned wickedly. “So you want us to be your hitman? Is that it?”
