The Protector (The Return Of The God of War) novel Chapter 51

The Return of God of War Chapter 51

Trey could not help but ask after listening to Nueve’s words. “Is Zoey the boss of that project, Lord Nueve?”

“You’re right. There is someone named Zoey there. What’s the matter?”

Trey was astounded after receiving Nueve’s confirmation. Nueve is in deep shit now.

He warned Nueve cautiously. “I am telling you as a friend, Lord Nueve. Do not meddle in this matter.”

Nueve was bewildered. “Oh? Why is that? Is there something wrong?”

“That woman should not be provoked. Let’s not participate in this matter anymore, Lord Nueve.” Trey said.

Nueve replied mockingly. “Haha. Are you telling me that there is a woman who I cannot provoke? That’s interesting!”

Trey muttered. “How should I explain this? She’s a unique woman. Anyone who dares to provoke her will face certain death. I’m afraid you’ll not be an exception as well, Lord Nueve.”

“Who are you to say that, Trey? How dare you belittle Lord Nueve?”

“That’s right. You’re spouting nonsense!”

Nueve was angered as well. “Fine. In that case, why don’t you enlighten me about her background? Who’s supporting her?”

“She… Never mind. I hope you will heed my advice and stay out of this matter.”

Trey did not reveal Levi’s identity after he pondered about it. If I tell anyone about this, I will certainly die a painful death.

“Hmph! Are you looking down on me, Trey? Very well, get lost then!” Nueve roared.

“You will regret it if you do not listen to me!” Trey yelled before he was tossed out of the venue by a few men.

Meanwhile, Zoey returned to Bayview Garden in despair. If this drags on, I will not be able to afford the rent without this project.

“What’s going on? Did something happen?” Levi asked.

Zoey explained everything to him.

He asked her after she was done. “Are you sure they will be there again tomorrow night?”

“Yes. I don’t know who’s the person orchestrating this. But their final goal is to stop me from proceeding with the project.”

“Okay. Leave this matter to me. I will go to the construction site tomorrow.”

…

Levi went to the balcony and made a phone call after Zoey slept. “I need some men tomorrow night, Azure Dragon.”

“You should contact Kirin for this, Sir. He’s got plenty of subordinates.”

Kirin contacted Levi shortly after. “I am the right person you’re looking for, Sir. I’ve been training a special squad in North Hampton since I have too much leisure time here. Their abilities are as good as the men we have in the base after receiving my training. I have a total of two hundred men ready to move out at a moment’s notice.”

“Okay. Bring that squad over here tomorrow night. There’s a mission for them to accomplish.” Levi answered in a low voice with a sullen look.

“Understood, Sir! This is the perfect opportunity to test out their actual combat skills.” Kirin’s excitement was as clear as day.

The five generals working under Levi were granted similar titles, but they had different responsibilities.

Azure Dragon was a war tactician and commander, while Kirin was a demon-like instructor tasked with training special squads for combat purposes.

Kirin had been training a new squad in North Hampton in the last two weeks. He shortlisted two hundred men out of ten thousand candidates.

The next day, Zoey took Levi’s suggestion and proceeded with their construction as usual.

Nueve was made aware of the happenings at the construction site. He said angrily, “What? They have the guts to continue with the construction? How dare they disregard me? Bring more men tonight, and make sure to teach them a lesson, Chopper! Feel free to disable a few of them as long as you do not kill them.”

Chopper nodded with a menacing smile.

The Return of God of War Chapter 52

Levi requested Zoey to bring the construction workers away in the evening.

He remained at the construction site with Kirin as they smoked continuously while waiting for Nueve’s arrival.

Soon, a huge crowd arrived.

Chopper brought over a hundred skilled fighters with him this time. There were no villagers in sight as they were not needed anymore.

“Oh? It seems like they’re missing. What a bunch of cowards.” Chopper jeered.

“They are fearful of you, Chopper.” The other thugs bootlicked Chopper.

“Well, since there’s no one around, we shall level this place!”

Levi and Kirin showed themselves right after Chopper gave the order.

“Aha! There are still people here. Are the two of you workers in this place?” Chopper teased them.

“Yes. We are here to guard this site tonight.” Levi took a puff of his cigarette.

Chopper sized up the two men. Then he chuckled. “Judging from your physiques and attires, I’m guessing you guys were from the army?”

“Yes.”

“Isn’t Zoey looking down on us? Does she think two ex-soldiers will be sufficient to handle us? You over there, do you think you can scare us with that walkie-talkie?”

Chopper looked at Levi and Kirin disdainfully. The men that I’ve brought with me tonight are equipped with combat skills comparable to ex-militants. ”Beat them up, but don’t kill them.” Chopper commanded without bothering to do anything himself.

Kirin held the walkie-talkie to his mouth and spoke just as Chopper’s men moved in their direction. “It’s time to rumble.”

Whoosh!

A flare shot up into the sky all of a sudden.

Bang!

Chopper and the others looked at the flare in a daze because they had never experienced something like this.

In the next moment, hurried footsteps were heard in every direction.

Anxiety crept into Chopper’s heart suddenly.

Everyone’s minds went blank as armored and armed soldiers surrounded them within a few seconds.

Bang!

Crack! Crack!

One soldier rushed toward Chopper before he could react and broke his wrists. The knives in his hands fell onto the ground.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

…

The thugs were nothing compared to the soldiers despite their experiences of having killed another person.

Their wrists were broken by the soldiers before they could even raise the weapon in their hands. Then they were shoved onto the ground.

In just a blink of an eye, Chopper and the hundred over thugs were left sprawled on the ground as they howled miserably.

One of the soldiers came to a halt in front of Kirin and saluted. “King of War! We, the Kirin’s special squad, have successfully subdued all the enemies.”

Kirin looked at the stopwatch in his hand. He said with a smile, “59 seconds. You’ve barely passed the test.”

Upon hearing that, Chopper and the other thugs lying on the ground were scared out of their wits.

“What? Kirin’s special squad? King of War?”

“Are we in deep shit now?”

“Why is the special squad here to confront us? We’re just some ordinary thugs.”

Chopper’s scalp tingled as the acknowledgment nearly caused him to pass out due to the fear. We are the leading gang in the circle. But I did not expect some special squad to be targeting us.

Everyone understood the situation when they saw the lasers aimed at their bodies.

“Come out, snipers.” Kirin ordered.

A team of snipers appeared out of nowhere.

Chopper was in utter disbelief. They even prepared snipers?

“Question their identities.” Levi continued to smoke.

The Return of God of War Chapter 53

Chopper looked at Levi incredulously. He’s the King of War. Yet he’s so polite to this man puffing on a cigarette. Who the hell is he?

Kirin grabbed Chopper by the neck and lifted him up, suspending him in mid-air.

“I’ll talk. I’ll tell you everything! Nueve sent us here.” Chopper blurted everything out as he was scared to death.

“Ask Nueve to meet me in thirty minutes. Do not make me go to him.” Kirin smiled eerily.

“Okay, okay, alright. I will make the call now!” Chopper complied.

Nueve was having the time of his life at that moment inside a bar. “Any update? Have you settled the matter? The people from the Lopez Family questioned our progress earlier.” Nueve asked casually after the call connected.

“Something terrible happened, Lord Nueve!” Chopper’s panicky voice was heard.

“What happened?”

“Please come here right now, Lord Nueve. We are being detained at the moment!”

The call was hung up before Chopper could elaborate further.

Nueve roared after being informed of the situation. “Gather all the men and follow me!”

Multiple vans arrived at the construction site half an hour later.

Hundreds of thugs rushed towards the scene, with Nueve leading the way.

They saw Levi and Kirin standing alone at the site while Chopper and the others lay on the ground.

“Who are you? Do you dare to tell me your name?” Nueve asked coldly.

Nueve was under the impression that he was the most formidable man in North Hampton, despite sensing something was amiss with the bizarre turn of events.

“So you’re Nueve? Who gave you the orders to do this?” Levi asked.

“Who do you think you are? How dare you question me?” Nueve scorned.

Thunk!

Nueve did not expect Kirin to take out a gun and aimed at his forehead. Moreover, the gun was loaded.

Everyone was stunned. Even Nueve’s body was trembling. No one had the guts to point a gun at me before…

Nueve raised his arms in surrender as his legs wobbled. “Let’s talk nicely. That gun of yours is quite uncommon. I’m guessing it’s for military use?”

Nueve had his share of experience in society. He could distinguish that Levi and Kirin’s decisive and imposing manners are traits seen only in military men.

Nueve had once seen the gun model in Kirin’s hand. That gun is specially designed for soldiers in the Special Operations Regiment.

Kirin did not say a word. But his uniform was exposed when the wind blew open the trench coat he had donned.

There’s a star label on his shoulders! He’s a war king!

Boom!

Nueve was mind-blown as he gained revelation. What terrible luck do I have to stumble into them!

The lasers pointed at their faces did not help with the ominous atmosphere.

An unprecedented terror filled their hearts.

Clap!

Clap!

Clap!

…

The lights on the construction site were switched on the next second. The venue was suddenly as bright as day.

Everyone finally knew the source of the lasers pointed at their faces. They saw the snipers aiming at them with their sniper rifles from afar.

They were armed to the teeth with a few grenades hanging on their shoulder’s vests…

“Kneel immediately, Lord Nueve. They are from the Special Operations Regiment!” Chopper yelled.

Thump!

Thump!

Thump!

…

Nueve and his men kneeled on the floor swiftly.

They threw all their weapons aside.

Trey’s warning reverberated beside Nueve’s ears at that moment. She is indeed someone I should not provoke. More importantly, Trey knew he could not inform me about these people’s identity.

The Return of God of War Chapter 54

“This is a mistake on my part. I will tell you everything. Lopez family’s son-in-law, Samuel, contacted me! I have the chat history and receipt of the transaction. Here, take my phone!” Nueve knew that it was the information Levi wanted to know. So he informed Levi of the truth about Lopez family’s request.

Kirin handed the phone to Levi.

Levi’s face contorted with rage after he scanned through the content. The Lopez family must have got tired of living!

“We were only told to carry out the orders, Chief! Please show mercy and forgive us.” Nueve groveled on the floor fearfully.

“I heard you all destroyed plenty of buildings here last night. So it is your responsibility to restore the constructs. I want all of you to work here starting tomorrow onwards! Moreover, you are going to compensate for the psychological trauma you inflicted on those workers. Fifty million should be sufficient.” Levi said firmly.

“Okay, okay, okay. I agree with all your requests. We do not mind slaving here!” Nueve did not have the guts to reject Levi. He considered himself lucky to escape death.

Kirin, the King of War picked up Nueve’s knife and crumpled the piece of sharp metal into scrap effortlessly.

Nueve’s underlings were horrified by that sight. Our difference in status aside, this man can easily defeat hundreds of us without breaking a sweat.

“Let’s not wait until tomorrow. You will start working here tonight. I hope to see some results tomorrow morning. Also, the sewage system is not installed. I assume you will handle that task?” Levi added.

Pfftt!

Everyone knew what he was implying. He’s clearly telling us to scoop up others’ wastes.

But Nueve did not dare to oppose Levi’s suggestion.

“May I know your relationship with Ms. Zoey, Sir?” Nueve summoned his courage to ask that question in his mind.

“Oh. She’s my wife.” Levi answered.

Everyone gasped as clarity washed over them.

Samuel contacted Nueve after Levi and the others left. “How’s the progress, Lord Nueve? I’m waiting to pay you the rest of the amount.”

Nueve exploded with rage as he listened to Samuel.

“F*** you, Samuel Robertson! My brothers are crippled and I almost died because of you. Mark my words, you’ll face the repercussion. I will not forgive you, just you wait!” Nueve hung up the phone afterward.

Samuel was frightened.

Harry asked. “What’s going on?”

“Nueve said his men were crippled, and he nearly died. He also mentioned that he would not forgive us!” Samuel explained helplessly.

The entire Lopez family almost wet their pants, listening to his explanation.

“This must be Levi Garrison’s doing! He’s going to get us all killed.”

“That family is evil! They are deliberately harming us. Sooner or later, we are going to meet our downfall because of them!” Harry Lopez slammed the table furiously.

“What should we do now?” Fabian asked anxiously.

“What else can we do? We are going to ask them to apologize!” Harry screamed angrily.

The next day, Zoey, Aaron, and the other workers were dumbfounded after they arrived at the construction site because there were already people working tirelessly at the site.

Many constructs that were destroyed the night before were restored.

More importantly, the people moving the bricks were covered with tattoos.

“Aren’t these people the thugs from the other night?”

Zoey recognized the men to be the thugs that caused them trouble the other night. This is unbelievable. They may not be good at building things, but these men are great labourers.

“What’s happening?” Zoey and the others were confounded.

A middle-aged man dressed in all black hurried over in their direction with a bunch of subordinates following behind him at that moment.

Zoey and the others were terrified by that group of men closing in on them.

“What’s the meaning of this?” Aaron took out his truncheon.

The Return of God of War Chapter 55

Zoey was afraid that the men were there to stir up a ruckus.

Unexpectedly, Nueve explained cheerfully. “Nice to meet you, Ms. Zoey and Mr. Aaron. You can call me Nueve. I am deeply sorry for causing this mess in the last two days. So I worked through the night to restore the constructs we destroyed the other day. Moreover, you can freely utilize my subordinates until the completion of this project. I have around two hundred men with me, and please leave the sewage system to us. Also, we will not accept any payment for doing all these!”

Two hundred gang members to volunteer at our construction site? No one could fathom the situation. But Zoey had no other choice but to accept the arrangements.

Zoey asked Levi about that matter when she arrived home that night.

“I stayed in the same prison as Nueve previously. We were close to each other, so he did me a favor.” Levi explained.

Zoey investigated Nueve’s background earlier in the day. So she could verify Levi’s statement.

“You should not mingle with that lot from now on. The connections you have with those inmates are not desirable. Did you borrow the five million from those people as well?” Zoey quickly deduced the source of the money.

Levi nodded. “That’s right.”

“Alright. Let’s return this five million once I receive the payment.” Zoey said with determination.

At the Garrison family estate.

Joseph gathered every member of the Garrison family for a meeting.

Bryan informed everyone agitatedly. “I’ve investigated Levi’s background thoroughly. The man supporting him is Nueve. He was imprisoned previously because he killed someone and was placed in the same prison as Levi. Nueve was released from jail one year ago, and coincidentally, even Trey has to obey Nueve’s every order!”

“Did you know, Nueve’s subordinates are helping Zoey out at the construction site.”

Joseph said with a smile. “Now we know who’s the man supporting Levi. So it’s Nueve!”

Melanie asked apprehensively. “Is this Nueve a formidable man, grandpa?”

“He is indeed a formidable man. It is said that no one can match his cruelty and bloodlust.”

“But Nueve is not the most impressive man. That title belongs to Jack Smith, also known as the King of North Hampton. He is in charge of the whole North Hampton with hundreds of men working under him, including the Invincible-13.” Joseph clarified.

“Then should we be fearful of Nueve, grandpa?” Melanie asked again.

Ben sneered. “Nueve is nothing! It is as easy as ABC for us to kill him. However, we should be afraid of Jack Smith.”
