Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 1728

The sound of the chanting, both the words and the tune, was unfamiliar to him.

It did not sound like anything from Eurasia.

Are there actually people living in this godforsaken place?

Zeke quickened his pace.

After walking for another kilometer or so, the river suddenly curved to the right. At that moment, the chanting became louder and clearer.

Zeke rounded the river bend and peered around.

What he saw made his entire body tremble and his eyes glaze over.

At the mouth of the river, there was a mountain of corpses. It was a huge pile of human remains. Zeke guessed that there must be at least a hundred thousand human bodies in there.

The mountain of corpses must have been in existence for a long time. The years had withered some of the corpses and turned them into skeletons.

There were also fresh corpses in the pile.

Those bodies looked as if they were still alive and merely sleeping.

However, the most shocking thing was that all of the corpses and skeletons were dressed in Eurasian military uniforms.

In fact, Zeke recognized the faces of those men. They were Noah's men who had just fallen into the valley.

There were two altars on both sides of the mountain of corpses, and on the altars, there were offerings and burning incense.

Two men were singing and dancing beside each altar.

Zeke's eyes turned red with anger. He clenched his fists tightly.

So, thousands of my Eurasian soldiers were unknowingly sucked into this valley to their death! It's a heroic sacrifice indeed! Yet, even in their death, my men have found no peace! Their bodies are piled up here at the mercy of these savages...

Although Zeke did not know what exactly the altars were built for, he knew they were most definitely not raised to pay homage to the dead.

A murderous rage filled Zeke.

His anger was so strong that it stirred the air around him and manifested into a strong gust of wind.

The temperature in the valley plummeted rapidly.

The two men who were dancing by the altar felt the strangeness in the air and paused to look around.

When they caught sight of Zeke, their faces paled in shock. They quickly turned to flee.

Come back here, you savages!

Zeke released his Invincible Wave Energy, sweeping the two men back toward him.

The two men tried to pull away, but Zeke's Invincible Wave Energy was too strong.

“Who are you? You have trespassed into Bloodshot Valley!” the two men asked angrily.

Zeke grabbed the two men roughly by their hair. The men struggled hard but could not escape.

At that moment, Zeke realized that these two men were not martial artists.

“What were the two of you doing?” Zeke asked.

“Are you Eurasian?” the two asked in return.

Huh?

Zeke was surprised by the question. He had a sudden revelation. “You two aren't Eurasian? Are you from the Orient? Tell me!”

“No, no!” The two men quickly shook their heads. “We are from Eurasia.”

“Lies!” Zeke roared. He grabbed the two men roughly by their shoulders.

The outer layer of their clothes was ripped open to reveal the epaulets inside.

They were clearly the epaulets of Orient soldiers.

They really are from the Orient! The Orients have been making moves at the bottom of the valley!

“Tell me, what are all of you doing down here?” Zeke's voice had a murderous tone to it.

The two men from the Orient were trembling from Zeke's palpable anger. “W-We were paying homage to the dead souls of these soldiers!”

Lies!

Zeke suddenly released his Invincible Wave Energy and forced all the air out of the two men's lungs.

The two men were suffocating.

“Tell me! What the hell are you doing down here?”

“We were... We were...” The voices of two men faltered. They could not seem to force the words out of their mouths.

At that moment, a loud rumbling sounded from above.

Zeke quickly cast his eyes skyward.

A thick cloud of black fog blocked his view. It was impossible for him to see what lay behind the fog.

The rumbling sound was getting closer and closer.

After a few minutes, the source of the rumbling revealed itself.

It was the dragon.

Its body was too thick, and it brushed against both sides of the valley as it moved, making the rumbling sound.
