Lord Protector Novel

Chapter 2692

Suddenly, Southern King spoke. “Everyone, please quiet down. I forgot to mention something.”

The crowd promptly turned to him. “What is it? Tell us!”

“While he had severely injured me, I managed to destroy his divine weapon. Without that weapon, he's about as

harmful as a clawless, toothless tiger. There's no need for you all to fear him.”

That news delighted the crowd and inspired courage in them. Now that his mightiest asset has been destroyed, he's

no different from an ordinary Centurion! Any one of us can take him out easily!

“There's no reason to be afraid of him if he doesn't have a divine weapon! Let's kill him!”

“I can kill a Centurion without a divine weapon with one finger!”

“Why don't you send me to kill him, Northern King? I'll definitely bring the head of that new commander back!”

“Why didn't you say that earlier, Southern King? You made us worry there for a moment!”

An embarrassed smile formed on Southern King's countenance. “I didn't have the time to.”

Meanwhile, Northern King remained silent and carefully observed Southern King. Frankly, I suspect Southern King's

lying. If he is, and the new commander is actually extremely powerful, we'll meet the same fate as him. I know

what kind of person he is, and he's definitely capable of doing something as heartless as that.

Upon detecting Northern King's skepticism, Southern King clarified, “I'm telling the truth, Northern Master. Think

about it. If he took out eleven Legatuses, including a commander of the Southern Faction, by himself without using

a Dark Level divine weapon, it means he's as powerful as a Camp Master. Do you truly believe he's that strong?”

The Legatuses nodded in agreement.

“Southern King's right. I don't believe that guy is as powerful as a Camp Master.”

“If he is, why is he still only a Centurion? He could've gone straight to one of the Camp Masters or even Theos and

challenged them! He could have started his own camp!”

While Northern King was still suspicious of Southern King, the latter's words reminded him of the three warriors he

had met in the forest within the central district of Theos Island. They recently reached Camp Master level, so if I

can ask them for help, I'll be able to take out that new commander rather effortlessly, even if he's as powerful as a

Camp Master. This complication with the new commander may be a massive problem for me to deal with, but it'll

be a piece of cake for the three of them to handle. Of course, I'm not expecting them to do this for free. I'll offer

them a bunch of resources, exchanging their services for my goods. With this, I believe my relationship with them

will improve. Yeah, I'll do just that.

Thus, he said, “This is a pretty serious matter. Since our survival is at stake, I must act cautiously. Please allow me

to think about this issue thoroughly before I inform everyone of my decision. In any case, all of you can stand down

now. As for you, Southern King, please report to the resource department and help them take inventory of

Southern Faction's resources.”

Before the crowd could convince Northern King to strike immediately, he hurriedly left.

A scowl was set on Southern King's countenance. That b*stard's going way over the line! He actually wants me to

take inventory of my camp's resources and hand them to Northern Faction! This is agonizing! Unfortunately, given

the current circumstances, I have no choice but to endure this humiliation and do his bidding.
