Chapter 1437
Lord Protector Novel
Zekeâs lips twitched at her answer. âYou plan to go to the Southern Archipelago to watch the battle and leave your boss behind with all the work? Donât you have any conscience?â
âSheesh,â Nancy mocked. âArenât you pampering your wife too much? Besides, you know full well that sheâs a workaholic.â
âAll right. Lacey will come along. Letâs pick her up at the company.â
With that, Zeke drove to Linton Group with Nancy and Dawn in the backseat to pick up Lacey first before rushing to the airport. There, they boarded a military helicopter to the Southern Archipelago.
As usual, Sole Wolf was the one guarding the island today, and Zeke got four VIP tickets just by making a phone call.
In the helicopter, the two other women were enjoying the scenery while Lacey was still busy with work.
Zeke glanced at Lacey and found that she was busy handling a cooperation project with Alvin Massimo, the richest man in Eurasia. She sighed when she ended the call. âWho wouldâve thought that a mere workshop owner like me would sit on a military helicopter while discussing business with the richest man in Eurasia.â
âThis is nothing compared to your other achievements,â Dawn said with a grin.
âLook at this, Lacey.â
âLook at what?â Lacey approached her when she saw Dawn pointing down.
âWhatâs that?â Dawn asked.
âThatâs Eurasia.â
Dawn nodded. âI never expected that Zeke was the protector of the whole of Eurasia. That Alvin guy couldnât even be compared to him.â
âI couldnât agree more,â Nancy nodded. âIf Zeke is still the Great Marshal, our status will be the highest of all.â
Lacey tugged on the corner of Nancyâs shirt to signal her to stop talking lest Zeke got sad.
However, Zeke merely remained silent.
If only they knew that my status now is even higher than the Great Marshal. Iâm now the strongest of the King Class and even protecting the country single-handedly would be no problem for me. Itâs such a shame that I canât reveal my true identity to them yet because knowing too much will not benefit them.
After three hours, they finally reached the Southern Archipelago.
They looked down from the helicopter to see that the Southern Archipelago was already overcrowded to the point that half of the island was barely visible.
Evidently, with the mass of people about, they couldnât land the helicopter on the island.
Fortunately, the technology for water landing had drastically improved in Eurasia. As such, they were able to land the helicopter on the water and arrived on the island by boat.
The venue of the battle would be held on the twentieth island of the Southern Archipelago.
The nineteen islands before that were filled with Eurasian, while the twenty-first island to the thirty-sixth island was filled with the people of Lundr.
With the twentieth island in between them, it could be said that the Eurasian and the people of Lundr were facing opposite each other.
It was said that the nearer one was to the twentieth island, the more noble oneâs status was.
Sole Wolf got Zeke and the others the top positions on the nineteenth island, which happened to have a panoramic view of the arena.
What they didnât expect was that Emily Clemonsâs seat was near them.
They immediately knew that it must have been Ares and Julian who had arranged for her to sit there.
Besides Emily, Mary, the Linton Groupâs traitor, was also present.
Of course, the latter was not qualified to sit down, so she stood beside Emily with her head down like a servant.
Even so, she was still filled with arrogance as she would take selfies from time to time.
For a mere employee like her, being able to attend such an event was something to be proud of, even if she came as a servant.
âWho wouldâve thought that youâd still be able to get the VIP tickets even after being completely stripped of your title?â Emily sneered when she spotted Zeke and the others.
Dawnâs lips twitched at her words. âLacey, isnât it forbidden to bring a dog to the island? I swear I heard some dog barking just now.â
