Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 418

Chapter 418

“I believe everyone knows that Hades kept his money in an illegal bank,” Eclipse sighed again. “But he passed away without leaving any will. Even I have no idea where the money is.”

The statement pushed everyone into despair.

Without money, the underworld would collapse.

Solomon took a deep breath and suggested, “Guys, I have an idea, but I’m not sure if it’s appropriate...”

“Speak,” Eclipse ordered.

“Zeke wants to become our leader, right? Why don’t we just let him take that position? His strength is more than enough to put everything in order. As he do that, we prepare ourselves behind his back to take him out and let Sir Eclipse regain that position.”

“Bullshit!” someone yelled. “Zeke is our enemy! He’s the one who murdered Sir Hades! How dare you propose for us to work with him?”

But there were some who also agreed with Solomon’s idea. “I think Solomon has a good point here. We need to be flexible. We are just using Zeke, and when he outlives his usefulness, we will bring him down and take back what’s ours.”

Suddenly, the group was divided into two different opinions.

One agreed to work with Zeke while the other fought against the idea.

Eclipse remained silent throughout the whole argument.

He was waiting for the main character to arrive.

Finally, a tidy march could be heard outside the room.

The door was suddenly thrown wide open, and soldiers armed with guns swarmed the room.

The one leading the troop was none other than Logan.

Everyone was intimidated by the soldiers as they got up.

Eclipse pretended to be calm and greeted, “What brings you here, Mr. Hugh?”

“Hades’ death has caused a huge uproar,” Logan replied coldly. “The army is now taking over this case. I’m here to investigate under order.”

Logan then scanned the crowd and continued, “I believe some of you are involved in the incident. Please come with me for further investigation.”

The revelation only brought more despair.

If the leaders were all taken into custody, their underlings would have to go into hiding. The underworld would collapse in no time.

Everyone turned to look at Eclipse, begging for help.

“Mr. Hugh, I can assure you with my life that they have nothing to do with Hades’ death,” Eclipse quickly said. “Please spare them. You owe me and Hades that much at least.”

“Owe you? You have no right to demand anything from me!” Logan laughed. “As for Hades, he’s as dead as he can be.”

A single thought came to everyone’s head instantly. Friendship is nothing to Logan.

Everyone had heard that Hades had helped Logan reached countless achievements. Now that Hades’ was dead, Logan betrayed him and even aimed for his inheritance.

“Take everyone away!” Logan ordered as he waved his arm.

The armies quickly surrounded the people in the room.

“Logan Hugh, stop it right there!” Someone suddenly shouted from behind.

The roar made everyone stopped what they were doing and turned towards the direction of the voice.
