Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams)

Chapter 2823 Targeted

However, he was harassed by beasts every day, and he nearly died a few times. Living there was not easy.

In the end, Quinlan looked at King of Dragons.

The latter was an overlord on Theos Island. If he were to get into King of Dragons' good book, no beast would dare to attack him anymore.

However, Quinlan had no idea how he should curry favor with King of Dragons.

He had to let King of Dragons recognize his worth to be able to establish a relationship with the latter.

After a while of observing King of Dragons from the shadows, Quinlan realized that King of Dragons was plagued with an issue.

King of Dragons would swallow a spirit pill every two days, but as the energy in the spirit pill was too overwhelming, King of Dragons would suffer from indigestion and constipation. Coincidentally, Quinlan knew how to massage, so he volunteered to massage King of Dragons to help it digest the spirit pill.

It worked. With Quinlan's treatment, King of Dragons' health trouble was resolved.

Naturally, King of Dragons began regarding Quinlan with more importance. It kept Quinlan by its side for massages.

Once in a while, Quinlan would even act as King of Dragons' toilet paper.

Quinlan was a weak human, but after close contact with King of Dragons and the occasional drinking of dragon-scale-soaked water, he was becoming physically stronger and stronger. Soon, many primordial beasts were no longer a match for Quinlan.

But Quinlan was still unable to match the power of the King of Dragons.

Is it possible for King of Dragons to have some consideration for me?

What Quinlan was worried about most was how King of Dragons would use him as toilet paper the moment he saw it.

Quinlan could only hope that King of Dragons would spare his dignity.

Once they walked out of the room, Zeke said to Sole Wolf and the others, "Let's go. Come with me to the primeval forest." Sole Wolf and the others shared a look. Even though they exchanged no words, they could see the fear in each other's eyes. Primordial beasts were everywhere in the primeval forest, and they were all powerful beings.

Even when they joined forces, they were still nearly killed by a Minotaur.

In other words, the chances of them surviving the trip to the primordial beast's nest were close to zero.

Nevertheless, it was an order from the Great Marshal, and Sole Wolf and the others had no choice but to obey without any questions.

Still, Zeke noticed the worry in their eyes.

He reassured, "Don't worry. I have an ace up my sleeve. We'll still be able to escape if we encounter danger."

Hearing that, Sole Wolf and the others calmed down.

Quinlan then carefully asked, "What's the ace up your sleeve, Zeke?"

"You, of course. Even if we can't win King of Dragons, we'll still be able to escape the primeval forest, right? Moreover, I'm sure you'll be able to win against King of Dragons. After all, King of Dragons was akin to a tiny snake to you back then, and you nearly cooked it. Also, I can see that King of Dragons has yet to fully recover to its peak state."

Quinlan nearly sighed out loud.

How the f*ck am I supposed to answer this? I thought Zeke really had a trump card that'll allow us to escape, but as it turns out, his trump card is me. Can I really tell you the truth? The truth about how I'm just King of Dragons' toilet paper... Forget it. I can't humiliate myself like that. I'll think on my feet instead."

After exiting Camp South, they headed toward the primeval forest.

None noticed that a tiny green snake was observing them from a quiet corner.

Once Zeke and the rest were gone, the snake swiftly turned and hurried off, flying up to four-meter-high every once in a while.

All of a sudden, Zeke turned around to look behind him and frowned.

Sole Wolf and the others warily asked, "What's the matter, Zeke? Did you sense something strange?"

Zeke asked, "Do you sense anything around us?"

Sole Wolf and the rest glanced at others before shaking their heads in unison. "No."
