Chapter 1230
Lord Protector Novel
Wolfâs Greed showed Zeke the videos taken of the arenaâs boss.
Zeke nodded. âYouâre right. He tried his best to hide it, but I can still tell that he was trained in Muay Thai. Besides, he was from the Silver Archduke class, so itâs entirely possible that heâs the boss of this arena. Shall we go and meet him?â
Archdukes were categorized into four levels, namely Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum Archdukes.
Zeke belonged to the Platinum Archdukes, Ares was a Gold Archduke, while Tyrant was a Silver Archduke, the lowest out of the three.
Zeke knew that Tyrant would be no match for him.
Before he stepped out of the house, Zeke turned around and told his subordinates, âI donât want to make too much noise and scare Tyrant off, so stay put and guard the place instead.
âYes, Sir!â
Soon, Zeke and Wolfâs Greed arrived at the underground arena.
Not only was it huge, rather, it had possessed a mysterious air to it as well, and the only way people could access it was by becoming a member.
In fact, a person needed to have received invitations from at least two existing members in order to secure a membership.
Otherwise, one would be barred from entering, no matter how much money they could offer.
Wolfâs Greed managed to get them a free pass beforehand, and they stepped into the arena soon after arriving.
The arena was noisy and crowded due to an ongoing match.
Underground boxing matches were different from the official ones.
There were no safety measures or even rules in general, and the competing parties had to sign a life and death agreement prior to the match.
Every match would end with puddles of blood on the ground and a few broken bones at best, and a corpse at worst.
âWe need to lure Tyrant out first,â Zeke murmured, looking at the arena. âWhy donât we challenge him directly?â
âI donât think heâll agree to this, Zeke,â Wolfâs Greed professed. âHowever, I know of an S-grade challenge where youâll have to fight your way from Rank 10 to Rank 1. If you get to the top, youâll get a chance to fight Tyrant himself, as well as gain a huge sum of money as a prize.â
The members of the arena were divided into ten ranks according to their abilities.
The weakest were put into Rank 10, while the strongest were put into Rank 1.
âAlright then. Letâs do it,â Zeke agreed.
They walked over to the receptionistâs counter.
âWeâll like to take on the S-grade challenge, please,â Wolfâs Greed requested.
The receptionist was a beautiful young woman, and she studied Zeke from head-to-toe before saying, âI wonât recommend it, boy. Almost everyone who took on this challenge has died. If you really need the money, just say it aloud. Maybe Iâll lend you some for a price.â
She glanced flirtatiously at Zeke as she spoke, mesmerized by his manly aura.
âShut up!â Wolfâs Greed growled. âWeâre taking on the challenge, and thatâs final.â
âWhy are you being so rude?â the young woman asked, looking hurt. âDonât worry, Iâll take your dead body home in exchange for money. Dead or alive, youâre still the same to me.â
âWhat a pervert!â Wolfâs Greed yelled.
The young woman entered their particulars into the system and announced, âHead backstage and get ready. Weâll prep the arena for you.â
Zeke and Wolfâs Greed retreated backstage as they were told.
The young woman approached the manager of the arena and told him about Zekeâs upcoming challenge.
She gave him a seductive look and uttered, âLet him live. I like the scent of his heart.â
She licked her lips as she said that.
I canât wait to take a bite out of his heart...
The manager shivered at her words.
