Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams)

Chapter 2829 Finding King Of Dragons

Sole Wolf shot the pangolin a hostile glare. "Do you think we're fools? I can kill you now! You tried to kill us earlier. How dare you claim you had no intention of harming us?"

The pangolin shuddered in fear, at a loss for words. "I... I..."

Zeke didn't want to waste any time, so he asked coldly, "Let me ask you something. Do you want to survive?"

The pangolin bobbed its head profusely. "Of course I do!"

Zeke said, "If you want to live, give me your spirit pill, and I'll let you go."

The pangolin flashed a bitter smile. "I'm sorry, but I can't do that."

Sole Wolf flew into a fit of rage. "If you have a death wish, I'll fulfill your wish!"

The pangolin hastily clarified, "Please hear me out! If I still had my spirit pill, I would have given it to you already. But unfortunately, it was taken from me, and I cannot hand it over to you."

What?

Quinlan's spiritual consciousness was shocked. "Oh? This pangolin doesn't have a spirit pill? That's interesting. It's quite impressive that it's still so powerful without one. If it did have a spirit pill, we might not have stood a chance against it. We would've been gobbled up by now."

Zeke asked, "Mr. Hayes, is this pangolin stronger than Minotaur?"

Quinlan nodded. "Of course. It is a few times stronger than Minotaur."

Zeke gasped. "Really? Then how did it lose its spirit pill? The creature that took it must be more powerful than the pangolin."

Quinlan instructed, "Check the pangolin's paws. These creatures love hiding their spirit pill on their paws."

Hearing that, Zeke summoned his energy to examine the pangolin's paws.

To his disappointment, there was nothing on the pangolin's paws.

Zeke asked, "Pangolin, who took your spirit pill?"

A flash of fear appeared in Pangolin's eyes. "You might not believe me, but King of Dragons is back!"

Zeke and his companions couldn't imagine the extent of the trauma that King of Dragons had inflicted on the primordial beasts, as Pangolin appeared to be deeply afraid even at the mere mention of King of Dragons.

It was impossible to hope that it would reconsider and choose to serve Zeke once more.

Zeke inquired, "When did King of Dragons take your spirit pill? Where is it now?"

"It took my spirit pill yesterday. I don't know where it is now," Pangolin replied.

"Where did it go?" Zeke urged.

Pangolin gestured its paw east.

Without hesitation, Zeke strode in the east direction. "Hurry, let's pick up speed!"

"Zeke, what about this creature?" Sole Wolf inquired.

"Kill it so it won't leak our whereabouts," came Zeke's answer.

"Sure!"

Pangolin pleaded with fear as Sole Wolf was about to make a move. "Please, spare my life and let me go this time. I promise not to reveal your whereabouts to anyone. I swear!" Sole Wolf commented, "If we kill you, we get to eat your meat. I've never tasted primordial beast meat before. Since you've existed since ancient times, I bet your meat is delicious." He was practically salivating as he talked.

Pangolin was close to tears as it pleaded, "Please spare my life. Don't kill me, as I can still be of use to you. You'll regret killing me because I can help you find King of Dragons." Zeke halted in his tracks and spun on his heels to look at Pangolin. "How are you going to do that?"

Pangolin elaborated, "King of Dragons has recently taken my spirit pill, but it hasn't had the chance to convert it into its own yet. So, theoretically, before it does that, I can still sense my spirit pill and locate it even though the connection may be weak."

It added earnestly, "It can take King of Dragons up to seven days to convert my spirit pill, and within that period, I can still sense it and help you locate it. Moreover, the primeval forest is filled with dangerous creatures, and if you enter their territories by accident, they will attack you. With me as your guide, you can travel safely, and I can even save your life if needed."
