Lord Protector Novel

At the sight of Zeke, Yannick couldn't help but tremble. “Zeke... It's really you, Zeke! You actually chased me all the way here.”

Zeke snapped, “What else were you expecting? After you laid a trap to allow the mysterious giant palm to kidnap my wife, I would hunt you down even if you fled to the ends of the earth! Now tell me, where is my wife, Lacey?”

Yannick replied, “I... I don't know what you're talking about. Who is this Lacey you speak of?”

An insidious smile descended upon Zeke. “Fine, I'm glad you refuse to talk. Just a moment ago, I was worried that you would blurt out the truth too easily. That way, I wouldn't have had an excuse to teach you a lesson and vent my frustration. But now, don't you worry. I'll make you suffer a fate worse than death.”

Yannick, who had heard of the famous Great Marshal and his interrogation methods, was terrified. After all, Zeke had personally established the Cygnus Room, Eurasia's strongest organization when it came to interrogation.

Finally, overwhelmed by fear, Yannick's faith wavered for the very first time.

Meanwhile, Zeke turned around and sent a blast of energy at Sherry's tombstone.

When the ground below the stone was blown away, a buried coffin was revealed.

Yannick, eyes bloodshot, roared, “Stop, I'm telling you. Stop! You're not allowed to touch Sherry's grave! I-If you dare lay a finger on her body, I-I will bite all of you to death!”

Yannick had barely spoken when he opened his jaws to bite down on Killer Wolf.

Letting out a snort, Killer Wolf swung a kick at Yannick's head, sending the latter flying amidst a scream of anguish.

In the meantime, Zeke used his energy to lift Sherry's body out of the coffin and prepared to revive her.

Yannick roared again, “Whatever it is, come at me! What sort of man are you to disturb a woman's corpse?”

“Shut up!” Ares snapped. “Do you really think that we don't know Sherry is in suspended animation? Now that the Great Marshal is going to resuscitate her, you had better stop shouting indiscriminately. Otherwise, I'll kill you first.”

Surprised that his plot was exposed, Yannick turned red from his cheeks to his ears.

Just a moment ago, he had assumed they were going to use Sherry's body to threaten him.

In the event Sherry was grievously hurt in the process, even he wouldn't be able to revive her anymore.

After going through Zeke's acupuncture treatment for a short while, Sherry burped all of a sudden.

The poisonous gas she released was responsible for slowing down her physiological functions to extremely low levels, putting her in a state of suspended animation.

Now that the gas was gone, Sherry's biological processes returned to normal—her heartbeat and breathing recovered their original strength.

Within a few short seconds, Sherry's pale face recovered its color.

It was then that she sat up abruptly and scanned her surroundings in a daze.

“I... Where am I? W-What just happened?”

Beaming with pride, Sole Wolf and the others stared at Zeke.
