Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2241

“If you ask me, I think you intentionally lured us into the ghost ship so those monsters can kill us,” Sole Wolf accused.

Rick was dumbfounded. “Monsters? What monsters?”

Killer Wolf pulled out his sword and pointed at Rick's neck. “This guy's not being honest, Zeke. Maybe I should send him to an early grave.”

Zeke nodded slightly to show his approval.

Rick hastily cried, “Don't kill me! I really wasn't lying! Dullioud Supreme is definitely inside the ghost ship! Oh yeah, there's definitely a small, hidden world inside the ghost ship. That's where Dullioud Supreme is hiding in. You guys just didn't notice.”

“Stop, Killer Wolf!” Zeke yelled.

The “small, hidden world” caught his attention.

He asked, “What do you mean by 'small, hidden world'?”

Rick explained, “I always suspected that there's a pocket dimension inside the ghost ship. In other words, there's a barrier there. Dullioud Supreme and the Dullioud headquarters are definitely hiding inside that barrier. It's why you guys didn't notice it.”

“And what makes you think that?”

“I'll tell you the truth. Actually, the ship doesn't look like this. It's a new ship. Very majestic and grand. It was where the headquarters were located, and Dullioud Supreme never left the ship. However, some time ago, the ship sank to the bottom of the river for some reason. Thankfully, the ship sunk slowly, so a lot of the Dulliouds, including myself, made it out in time. We only realize Dullioud Supreme was still on the ship after we were out of it. We tried to save Dullioud Supreme of course, but it was too late. He and the ship had already completely submerged. As it sank, a massive vortex that lasted for an hour was formed. It was quite a terrifying scene. In any case, we didn't have the guts to save him with the vortex still around. All we could do was sit on the shore and waited for his corpse to float up. Then, something unimaginable happened. The ship suddenly surfaced from underwater, with Dullioud Supreme standing on the deck. He was alive! However, something was off about him. He was stiff and his eyes were unfocused, like a dead person. He wasn't dead, of course, because dead people can't speak or move. We thought that he was freezing, not dead. Afterward, he started giving us missions. He split us into two groups. I was part of the first group. We were led by Cesar to control different villages and make the farmers plant beans. The other group was further split into groups of two hundred people. They entered the ship in sequence to receive secret missions from Dullioud Supreme. I saw it clearly. Everyone who went in never came back out. There were a total of eight groups that had entered the ship, meaning one thousand and six hundred people vanished without a trace. I know there's no way the ship can accommodate that many people. The waterline didn't dip that low either. At most, there were about two hundred people inside. That's why I'm suspecting there might be another dimension inside the ship. Dullioud Supreme and the other Dullioud must've entered another world.”

Listening to Rick's explanation and having seen the situation inside the ghost ship had led Zeke to a conclusion. The Dulliouds who went inside the ghost ship were probably transformed into spider men by Dullioud Supreme. And then, through a special channel inside the ship, the spider men were sent to the bottom of the river. The spider men we saw earlier probably didn't manage to reach the bottom of the river in time. The biggest question right now is what exactly is at the bottom of the river. Why did Dullioud Supreme turn his people into spider men and sent them to the bottom? What is it that the spider men were protecting? What could possibly be valuable enough to warrant this kind of extreme sacrifice?
