Lord Protector Novel

Everyone quickly did as he had ordered.

After the bandits stowed away their valuables, Cyclops glanced at a dazed Nancy with an evil glint in his eyes.

“Ms. Hinton, the boys, and I haven’t been getting any action for several months now. Please come over and give us our fill.”

“You’ll be heavily rewarded if you manage to please us.”

Nancy’s face blanched in horror.

These bandits were nothing but monsters that devoured everything in their path.

Death would be better than falling into their hands.

Nancy was close to having a mental breakdown as she shouted, “No... I’ll give you money. I’ll give you as much as you want...”

However, Cyclops picked Nancy up in one go, without another word.

Nancy screamed desperately, “Help! General, help me...”

“Put her down! Or else, I’ll wipe out your entire group,” Ryker bellowed angrily.

Cyclops shouted, “Don’t move! If you come one step closer, I’ll make sure you never live to see another day!”

Ryker strode forward fearlessly. “A soldier who isn’t ready to sacrifice his life to protect innocent lives doesn’t deserve to be a soldier...”

Bang!

Cyclops fired a shot without hesitation, and the bullet went through Ryker’s thigh.

“Ah!” With a yelp, Ryker fell to his knees.

Then, Cyclops left with a mocking grin.

Ryker’s men were startled and hurried towards him. “General, what should we do now?”

“Should we call in fire support?”

“Those bandits are getting out of line. They must be eradicated.”

Ryker waved his hand and shushed them. “Don’t cause a stir. If we alarm the bandits, they’ll have no qualms about killing the hostage.”

He took out his phone and called Zeke, castigating him when the call connected, “Zeke Williams, you sure have some balls of steel!”

“Just get to the point.” Zeke sounded slightly annoyed.

“I’ve long caught wind that there were bandits near the Whiteridge tourist area, so I led a team of men here to deal with them,” Ryker gritted through his teeth.

“But I’d never expected that the people in charge of the Whiteridge tourist area were in cahoots with these bandits. We were tricked and held at gunpoint. I was even shot.”

“But life doesn’t always go according to plan. The tourist spot’s person-in-charge, Nancy Hinton, had an internal conflict with the bandits because of an unfair distribution of spoils, and was kidnapped by them...”

What!

Zeke’s mouth twitched violently.

In cahoots with these bandits? Unfair distribution of spoils? It’s all bulls***.

It did not take a genius to figure out that this was all arranged by the Lewis family.

They wanted to use Linton Group and Nancy to force him out of Atheville, so that he would return to Rivermouth.

He never thought that they would target Linton Group!

Zeke clenched his jaw and growled, “Ryker Lewis, you and your family can continue deluding yourselves.”
