Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2705

“Damn it! What on earth is that?”

Before the crowd could even come to their senses, burlap sacks came dropping from the sky and crashing into the crowd.

Shocked, everyone screamed and scrambled for their lives.

Unfortunately for Scar Face, he had already passed out on the spot. There was no way he could get to his feet, let alone flee.

As the burlap sacks landed around him, the ground beneath him trembled so greatly that even his organs were trembling.

Soon, everyone was one hundred meters away from the scene. Only then were they safe.

With a lingering fear in their hearts, they glanced behind them and watched the sky raining with burlap sacks.

No one could guess what was in the bulging sacks.

The event lasted for over ten minutes before the number of bags falling from the sky began to reduce.

Just as burlap sacks stopped dropping from the sky, dead beasts appeared next, dropping onto the sacks.

There were about fifty massive beasts.

It could last the crowd for more than twenty days.

It was at that moment the crowd recalled Zeke warning them to stay a hundred meters away.

He was worried about us getting crushed.

When things stopped dropping from the sky, Sole Wolf and the others appeared on top of the mountain made of bulging sacks and beasts.

Meanwhile, Scar Face was crushed under it.

Sole Wolf scanned the area with an icy gaze. “Has everyone lost their conscience? While we were out working hard to search for food, you people began besieging the base. This is a little unreasonable, don't you think?”

Most of them lowered their heads guiltily.

Some, however, insisted stubbornly, “Fine. We admit we went a little overboard, but we didn't have a choice. There's no food, and we can't just starve to death. Surely it's not wrong of us to ask Mr. Williams about the situation?”

“Exactly. We need to find out the truth even if it means having to starve to death. We don't want to die without knowing what happened.”

“If Zeke promised he'll solve the problem, then he'll definitely solve it. If you don't trust him, then just get lost,” said Sole Wolf.

Someone in the crowd voiced unhappily, “We've put in so much effort in finding so many Spirit Stones. Now that we've handed them to you, you're asking us to get lost? Don't you think we're losing a lot here?”

Sole Wolf remained firm with his decision. “Those who get lost now can get a month's worth of food as compensation.”

“What?”

The crowd's eyes widened with shock.

To be able to get one month's worth of food by just leaving there and then was too tempting.

After all, they had thought they would not last for twenty days if they stayed and survived on the prey they hunted.

To them, leaving at that moment was a better deal.

At worst, they could return to Contubernium's district when they had finished their food. Although the living condition there was a little poor, at least they could still live.

If we choose to stay, all that food will only last us for twenty days. After that, we'll have nothing left. In the end, we might just starve to death.

However, no one dared to step forward and state their standpoint. Only silence filled the air.

“I'll leave! I'll take one month's worth of food and leave!” Scar Face piped up from underneath the mountain of food.

With a swoop, Sole Wolf pulled him out.

Grabbing him by the neck, Sole Wolf grinned maliciously. “Ugly people are always more troublesome. You were the one who gathered everyone and started a ruckus, right?”

The man's face flushed red. “N-No... I-I joined the crowd much later.”

Sole Wolf threw him over ten meters away. “Get lost. You've been expelled, and you're not getting any food.”

“I—” He was so mad that his face turned even redder.

However, his opponent was powerful, which was why he did not dare to refute anything.

Instead, he proceeded by tempting the people who wanted to leave. “Guys, what are you still waiting for? The prey they've hunted will only last us twenty days at most. What's going to happen after that? Are they going to continue hunting? As far as I know, there aren't many animals here for us to hunt. In fact, I suspect they've killed them all. Even if the problem with food can be solved, what about Legion? These people have gotten into a stalemate with Legion, and Legion surely won't let them off. If you don't leave, you'll definitely have a bloody battle with Legion. I don't have to say who'll survive or die in the battle, do I?”
