Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2830

Chapter 2830 Who Are They

Zeke took a moment to consider Pangolin's offer before agreeing, “I see your point. However, how can we be sure you won't lead us to a ferocious beast's territory on purpose and get us killed? To be frank, I don't trust you completely just yet.”

Pangolin frowned and eventually let out a resigned sigh. “All right. We can form a master and slave contract. Once the contract is established, I'll be subject to punishment by the laws of nature, and my soul will dissipate if I betray you. Do you trust me now?”

Zeke gave a curt nod. “That's more like it.”

With that, he used his mental energy to form a master and slave contract. Pangolin also used its mental energy to sign the contract.

After they both signed the contract, it took effect officially.

Zeke asked, “Pangolin, you said earlier that you stayed here to protect the Rejuvenation Grass. Where is it?”

Pangolin extended its shaking paw, pointing toward a white lotus-like plant ten meters away. “There it is,” it said.

Zeke observed the Rejuvenation Grass, which caught his attention. “What is its effect?”

Pangolin appeared uneasy as it spoke. “Master, I must inform you that the Rejuvenation Grass is only effective for pangolins and has no benefits for humans. In fact, if a human consumes it, it may result in poisoning. So, it's useless for you to take it.”

Zeke asked Quinlan, “Mr. Hayes, is Pangolin speaking the truth?”

Quinlan chuckled and replied, “Pangolins and humans are both living beings, so it doesn't make sense for something to be beneficial for one but not the other. The Rejuvenation Grass can actually be processed into a rejuvenation pill that can increase vigor and provide one with an instant burst of explosive energy. It could even save lives. It's quite valuable.”

Quinlan chuckled and replied, “Pangolins and humans are both living beings, so it doesn't make sense for something to be beneficial for one but not the other. The Rejuvenation Grass can actually be processed into a rejuvenation pill that can increase vigor and provide one with an instant burst of explosive energy. It could even save lives. It's quite valuable.”

Upon learning that Pangolin had lied to him, Zeke slapped its head hard.

After being hit by Zeke's powerful attack, Pangolin tumbled on the ground several times before finally coming to a stop.

With a swollen head and tongue hanging out of its mouth, Pangolin looked miserable as blood trickled down the corner of its lips.

Pangolin asked weakly, “Master, why did you hit me?”

Zeke snapped, “If you dare to lie to me again, I will do so much more than just hit you. I'll slaughter you right away. Rejuvenation Grass can be made into a rejuvenation pill to rejuvenate one's energy and increase one's strength. Do you think I'm a fool who will fall for your lies easily?”

Pangolin was speechless. If you know the Rejuvenation Grass well, why would you ask me about its effects? You must've done that on purpose!

Pangolin was on the verge of tears.
