Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2645

Zeke was halfway through his sentence when a voice called out to him, “Are you okay, Zeke? Wake up!”

Suddenly, his vision started to go black.

What the... What's going on?

Zeke began struggling in panic.

His eyes shot open moments later, and he saw that he was still inside his room.

Sole Wolf was standing next to him with a worried look on his face.

Huh? Was that all just a dream? Does this mean that Lacey, the old beggar, and the parallel universe don't exist?

At that very moment, Zeke felt his heart sink in disappointment.

“I'm so glad you're finally awake! I was worried sick!” Sole Wolf exclaimed.

“What happened to me, Sole Wolf?” Zeke asked with a frown.

“I was standing guard outside the door when I heard you screaming. I came rushing in and saw you waving a drumstick around. You looked like you were waving goodbye at someone,” Sole Wolf replied.

“A drumstick? What drumstick?” Zeke was confused.

“The one you're holding in your hand, Zeke. I was wondering where you got it from!”

As Zeke glanced at his right hand, his eyes went wide with shock and excitement.

Sure enough, there was a burnt drumstick in his hand.

The old beggar gave me this drumstick earlier! So, that wasn't a dream, then? No, it was a dream that the old beggar created. The parallel universe does exist, and Lacey is trapped inside! I'll be able to see her again if I can craft a Dark Level divine weapon and cut my way through this dimension! I must craft a Dark Level divine weapon! Oh, and I'll also need the help of a thousand men to deliver eighty-one cuts! I need to assemble my thousand-man team as soon as possible!

Having confirmed his objectives, Zeke got out of bed and asked, “Sole Wolf, what's our progress with the spiritual iron refinement?”

“We're working on it endlessly day and night. However, progress is rather slow as we only have a few people here who can refine spiritual iron,” Sole Wolf replied.

Zeke nodded. “Come on, let's go have a look. We need to speed things up.”

Sole Wolf was a little puzzled as to why Zeke was suddenly concerned about the progress of spiritual iron refinement.

After all, Zeke had never asked about it before, let alone tried to rush it.

As Ares and Nameless were in the room next to Zeke's, they came rushing over to have a look after hearing his screams.

The two of them breathed sighs of relief when they saw that he was fine.

“What happened, Great Marshal? Are you okay?”

Zeke nodded. “Yeah, I'm okay. Don't worry about it. Come on, we're heading over to the Spirit Stone storage. I have a new mission for you guys.”

Having confirmed his objectives, Zeke got out of bed and asked, “Sole Wolf, what's our progress with the spiritual iron refinement?”

On the way there, Zeke asked Ossa Dei, “Hey, Ossa Dei! What's the deal with Dark Level divine weapons? How many levels are there? Tell me all about it.”

“There are a total of four levels of divine weapons. Sky Level, Earth Level, Dark Level, and Yellow Level. As you probably have guessed, Yellow Level is the lowest one of the four. Sky Level divine weapons were commonplace during the era of Ancient Gods. You could also purchase Earth Level divine weapons easily. As for Dark Level divine weapons, you could find them pretty much everywhere. It wouldn't be an overstatement to say that everyone was walking around with Earth Level divine weapons. However, in this era, you can barely even find a Dark Level divine weapon, let alone a Sky Level divine weapon. It'll be hard to craft a Dark Level divine weapon!” Ossa Dei explained.

“I must craft a Dark Level divine weapon, no matter how hard or costly it will be,” Zeke said.

“One would need to have at least two years of training in order to craft a Dark Level divine weapon, and that's during the Ancient Gods era. You, on the other hand, have only been exposed to divine weapons for a few days. It's impossible for someone like you to craft a Dark Level divine weapon,” Ossa Dei replied.

“I'll just keep trying until I succeed. I'm sure I'll be able to pull it off someday!” Zeke said.
