Lord Protector Novel

It was starting to drizzle, and they had nowhere to take shelter from the rain. Zeke unhesitatingly used his energy to form four pillars and stabilized Vauxgan Pavilion before walking into it.

Sole Wolf twitched his lips when he saw that. What an extravagant way to use his energy! He just formed pillars to support a d*mn roof!

Zeke glanced toward the misty Yellow Sand River and saw nothing. Dullioud army? I don't even see a single soul!

Zeke then asked Rick, “Where's Dullioud's headquarters? How do we find it?”

“We just need to wait. They'll come and meet us,” Rick quickly answered.

“How long do we have to wait?”

After pondering for a while, Rick said, “I'm not too sure about that. By right, however, they should be here within a week.”

A week? Zeke's head throbbed. How am I supposed to wait for a week? I'm a busy man!

Right at that moment, they were interrupted by rustling noises coming from nearby, accompanied by the sound of unsteady footsteps.

Since the place was deserted, it was unusual to have someone showing up.

Sole Wolf grew wary and turned toward the sounds.

Soon, a cow showed up in the direction of the sounds.

Seeing that, Sole Wolf chuckled and found his paranoia amusing.

He glared at the cow and roared, “Get lost! This is not where you should be!”

The cow immediately took a few steps back as if it was frightened by Sole Wolf.

However, it stopped moving and stared at Zeke with its huge eyes.

Zeke glanced at the cow as well.

After exchanging glances, Zeke was startled. What was that? Why do I feel like the cow's eyes are filled with complicated emotions? Are those the eyes of an animal? Only humans can have eyes filled with intense emotions, no?

Sole Wolf tried chasing the cow away once again. To everyone's surprise, the cow knelt in front of Zeke, and it appeared to be crying.

Sole Wolf looked at the cow in bafflement and murmured to himself, “What the f*ck? Why is the cow acting like a human? Could it be that it's capable of communicating with humans?”

Sole Wolf gazed at Zeke and uttered, “Zeke, the cow seems strange to me. Do you think it's a spiritual beast like my Tiger Lord?”

Tiger Lord possessed enough intelligence to understand humans' emotions.

Zeke shook his head in response. “That doesn't seem to be the case. It doesn't have the aura of a warrior. Spiritual beasts have a strong aura of such.”

Sole Wolf furrowed his brows upon hearing that. “That's weird. If it doesn't possess intelligence, why is it acting like it's capable of understanding humans?”

Right then, the cow started dragging its right foreleg frantically on the ground.

Upon closer observation, Zeke seemed to have recalled something. “Human?”

Sole Wolf was confused. “Zeke, what are you talking about? What human?”
