A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 220



Episode 220

Bastian clenched his teeth and tried to fire his magic gun at Zeke again.

However no more shots were fired as all the bullets were used up.

It was only then that Zeke realized the problem with Bastian’s magic gun.

“Isn’t that a bit too inaccurate?”

There was no way Siemens would have given the pirates a proper weapon.

At Zeke’s question filled with laughter Bastian threw down the magic gun he was holding and shouted at his subordinates.

“Kill that bastard!”

The pirates charged at Zeke with their weapons drawn.

Zeke snapped his fingers for a moment.

Clang!

Ghost soldiers hiding in the shadows of the pirates jumped out and decapitated them.

“Ugh!”

Even the Night Killers couldn’t stop them let alone the pirates.

The ghost soldiers that appeared unilaterally slaughtered the pirates.

“What the hell! What is that!”

Zeke slowly approached Bastian.

“That’s why you should have said it quickly when you said you’d kill me comfortably earlier.”

As Bastian tried to run away Zeke extended his left hand.

Chorrrrrr!

A chain shot out and wrapped itself around Bastian’s body.

“Ugh!”

Bastian struggled to free himself but was unable to escape the soul seal.

Zeke approached him slowly.

Then he injected paralyzing poison into Bastian’s body.

“Eeeeeeeee!”

Bastian’s eyes were filled with fear as his body was paralyzed and he couldn’t even scream.

Zeke said pulling out Annex’s dagger.

“Don’t be so quick to guess what will happen from now on.”

* * *

“Krrrrrrr!”

Bastian whose whole body was covered in blood was restored to his original state thanks to Zeke’s healing.

However because of the paralyzing poison and corruption power injected by Zeke even though his body recovered the pain remained.

By the time I passed out Zigg had buffed my mental defenses and infinite stamina to keep me conscious so I had to face the pain with my mind clear.

“Have you ever thought of saying something?”

Bastian’s eyes moved furiously.

When Zeke realized that it was a positive answer and removed the poison he had injected into Bastian’s body only then did Bastian open his mouth and let out a sound.

Zeke asked Bastian.

“Who gave you the order?”

Bastian shuddered at those words. Zeke lifted Annexy’s dagger with a smirk as if he had no intention of waiting.

Then Bastian opened his mouth trembling.

“My Empire! First we were contacted by the Imperial Intelligence Service!”

“Imperial Intelligence Service. Did they hide you?”

“Yes that’s right. With the help of the Information Agency I was planning to stay in a safe house prepared by the Empire and then return once the situation in the Southern Continent was resolved.”

“But I guess they were surprised that the favela cartel collapsed faster than expected. The syndicate took its place.”

Bastian nodded drooling.

“Yes that’s right. So while I was wondering what to do the Empire made another proposal.”

“What kind of suggestion do you have?”

Bastian swallowed hard and said.

“Captain Kidd’s Treasure Island offered him a pardon and asylum in the Empire if he killed Carly Draker.”

Zeke’s prediction turned out to be somewhat correct.

“Are Peter Pan’s Fishman Pirates here too?”

“I haven’t seen it myself but I’ve heard that it’s been deployed. You attacked Kali’s ship and wrecked it.”

“Did the Aeolian pirates attack the ship themselves?”

“Yes.”

Zeke also never saw the Pirate King Peter Pan in person in his past life.

All that was known was that he had driven Kali to death and taken over Jason her domain and then ruled the Central Sea.

Zeke asked Bastian.

“Have you ever met Bastian Peter Pan in person?”

Then Bastian shook his head.

“I have seen it. In fact I had contact with Peter Pan before the syndicate when he was transporting soma from the favela cartel.”

“Are you trying to recruit a pirate group to join the cartel and have them transport it?”

“Yes that’s right. But… those guys refused the cartel’s demands.”

“Oh so that’s what happened. With your personality there’s no way I would have just left you like that.”

Bastian said sweating profusely.

“In fact I led the organization members and invaded their base… but we couldn’t get close.”

“Why?”

“A huge whirlpool blocked the island’s path making access impossible.”

“A giant whirlpool? Are you talking about the one that was there when you came to this island?”

“It’s similar though on a smaller scale. I heard that Peter Pan can cast an ancient curse.”

After hearing Bastian’s words Zeke began to wonder about Peter Pan’s abilities.

‘An ancient curse. It means that Peter Pan was not just a simple pirate.’

Since he’s not a wizard there’s a chance he might have special bloodline abilities like Six.

Zeke asked Bastian again.

“What were the orders you received?”

Bastian said shuddering.

“The Empire sent us a coded message with orders and we just had to follow them.”

“Is it really the Empire that sent the secret letter?”

“That that…..”

Bastian rolled his eyes. Without hesitation Zeke plunged Annexi’s sword into Bastian’s thigh.

Then he used his lightning skill.

Pfft pfft pfft!

“Krrrrrrr!”

Bastian felt like he was going to die from the pain that felt like every nerve in his body was burning but his body recovered and he could not even die.

Zeke asked Bastian again.

“Tell me straight. Are you really on the Empire’s side?”

“Ugh… Siemens. It’s connected to Siemens.”

Zeke got the answer he wanted.

“Is there any evidence of any connection to Siemens?”

“I have leaked information from my Imperial Intelligence Service. If we deal with Kali Draker here the Empire will support Abel Draker…”

From the Empire’s perspective it seemed that it would be more advantageous for the pro-imperial Abel to become the head of the household rather than Kali.

‘Consul Julius may have been involved. He was unable to eliminate Carus but he must have been a thorn in the side of Sister Kali who is currently in exile in her territory.’

Once Kaliman was removed removing Karus was a breeze.

That was when.

“Cough!”

Suddenly Bastian started vomiting blood and shivering.

Zeke grabbed Bastian and quickly used healing.

But it was no use.

Black fluid flowed out from the seven holes.

Zeke saw Bastian’s reaction and something occurred to him.

‘The Golden Rule of the Abyss?’

I didn’t know that Bastian who was not a wizard also had this kind of ban.

Before I knew it Bastian was dead oozing black fluid.

Zigg shuddered at Siemens’ meticulousness.

‘They are destroying everything that could be evidence.’

Zeke used the power of corruption to destroy the corpses of dead pirates including Bastian and absorbed the monsters with gluttony to replenish their consumed mana and mental power.

Then he headed towards the Imperial camp he had found out from Bastian.

‘The Imperials’ presence here is not simply to trap Sister Kali.’

Although Consul Julius had great power he had no authority to move the hounds.

The hunting dogs could only be moved by the Emperor.

There is only one thing that such an emperor is interested in.

‘Ancient ruins for immortality. The Emperor thought there were ancient ruins here too so he sent his hunting dogs. He probably tricked Captain Kidd into thinking that his treasure was an ancient ruin.’

In fact the treasure of the sea god was hidden on this island.

It is not known how much the Empire knew about the treasure of the Sea God but it was possible to guess that they had sent hunting dogs to explore the ruins.

I went in the direction Bastian had told me and found a huge lava cave located in the center of the island.

Zeke discovered that the Imperial hounds had set up camp in front of the cave.

‘You damned hounds. How on earth did you find out where I was and sneak in here?’

Zeke who shook his head without realizing it sent out ghost soldiers to find an opening to infiltrate the base.

Mines stood like sentinels all over the camp as if the hounds that had met Bastian had brought them with them.

‘Have you finished researching mines to the point where they can be used in actual combat?’

It was when Zeke was looking for a gap in the truth.

Suddenly Jinji became noisy.

Beep!

The alarm sounded and the hounds started moving busily.

“Intruder in Area 14! Move quickly!”

Bastian had said that the Empire was dividing the island into a total of 30 districts and managing them. Zeke who had heard the general idea of ​​how they were divided went over the districts in his head.

‘If it’s District 14… then it’s the area where Klon is.’

Although I had told them not to confront each other if possible I had expected that Clone wouldn’t be able to just pass by. As expected it seemed like a battle had broken out.

As the hounds dragged the mines away a gap appeared in the camp’s perimeter.

‘That’s good.’

Taking advantage of the commotion Zeke used his stealth skill to hide himself and entered the camp.

Zeke approached the lava cave hung from the ceiling and went inside.

Then he used his magic reflection skill to disable all the surrounding alarm devices.

Kkieeeeing!

As the magic reflection spread the magic lights illuminating the cave began to blink.

The guards guarding the cave sighed as they looked at the blinking magic lights.

“That’s another mess.”

Then the other guard shook his head and said

“Leave it alone. It’ll come back to you.”

In that moment Zigg used his power Shadow Domination to subdue the two shadows.

The shadow-suppressed guards stopped in their tracks.

Zeke quickly read the guards’ memories.

‘There’s a path leading down to the basement inside.’

Zeke released his shadow control and went past the guards and into the cave.

There was an elevator going down to the basement that I had read about in my memory.

Zig grabbed the rope connected to the bottom and went down. It was connected to a deeper underground area than he had thought.

Zig used his dragon wings to glide through the air and land on the ground which seemed quite far away.

Phew!

As soon as he hit the ground Zig’s body floated up.

‘It was a good decision to unlock the skill. It’s very useful.’

Although he could achieve a similar effect by using the Wind Field it was still difficult for Zikra to adjust the output when using the Elemental Sword making it difficult to use it covertly.

However the dragon’s wings were very useful because they allowed it to move its body freely in the air.

Zig who lightly descended underground on the dragon’s wings hid his body and looked around.

The lava cave branched out into many paths almost like a maze of an inverted tower.

‘It’s not easy to find the way because the map doesn’t open properly.’

Sending out ghost soldiers to see the way also had a distance limit.

After much thought Zeke decided to try using his power of luck.

The idea was to throw a dagger and have it go in the direction the tip of the sword was pointing.

“Good luck. Tell me where I can go to find Sister Kali.”

I threw the dagger but there was no sound in the system window indicating that the spell had been cast.

Zeke tried throwing the dagger several more times.

Whoosh!

How many times did I throw it? Finally a message window popped up.

[Power Luck is activated.]

However the dagger that Zeke threw did not point in the right direction but rather got stuck in one side of the ceiling causing a crack to form around it.

Damn it!

Suddenly one side of the ceiling cracked and lava rocks fell down and a hole opened up in the ceiling.

But then a strange sound was heard inside the hole.

‘What is this sound?’

Sasa sasa sak!

A swarm of black spiders began to swarm out of the hole.

‘this!’

Spiders the size of a child’s head though not as big as the giant spiders crawled out ceaselessly.

However among the three paths the spiders only went through the middle and right paths leaving the left one alone.

‘Why don’t you go to the left?’

It meant that there was something on the path that the spider monster instinctively did not take.

Zeke chose the left path that the spiders did not take.

The path through the lava cave was longer than I thought.

After walking for a while Zik realized that water was gradually rising on the floor.

He dipped some water in it and tasted it just in case.

‘It’s salty. The sea water has come rushing in here.’

I thought I knew why the spiders didn’t come in here.

As we went further in the sea water gradually rose.

Zik thought about it for a while and then remembered that this was the island of the sea god.

‘There might actually be a path inside there.’

Zeke drank the ‘Whale’s Breath’ potion and dove deep into the sea.

Thanks to the dragon’s eyes I could see clearly into the dark water.

The cave submerged in seawater continued further downward.

Zig swam deep into it.

‘It’s quite deep. It would be difficult for an ordinary person to reach here.’

That’s when I felt something.

Whoosh!

Zeke looked around feeling as if something was trying to block him.

‘what?’

I felt a strong hostility from the unidentified being. It was as if it was telling me not to come any closer.

As Zig paused for a moment and moved forward something rose up in front of him.

Kookookookookook!

Zeke was startled by the presence blocking his path.

‘Golem? In the sea?’
