A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 530



Episode 530

The reason Zeke had this thought was because he realized the new functions of the Ark and the Elixir.

Elixirs have the effect of making substances that are otherwise incompatible mix together.

Surprisingly this also applied to random boxes.

I tested putting low-grade random boxes into the Ark to increase their abilities and combining them with elixirs and confirmed that even if the number of items combined is small the grade goes up.

Thanks to this we were able to combine low-grade random boxes to create special random boxes.

Considering the total Karma Points required for the combination it was extremely inefficient but I thought it was worth it if I could upgrade an out-of-spec random box one more level using this method.

‘The most important thing in this combination is the elixir. Although the elixir is expensive it is an item that can be purchased at the shop so you can use it as much as you want now that you have plenty of points.’

Except for things that cannot be purchased at the store like the Philosopher’s Stone it was efficient to use them when available.

He rubbed his palms together and brought up the production system window.

First five special random boxes were combined to create an out-of-spec random box.

Woohoo!

A random box with a bright color outside the standard size has appeared.

The special random boxes themselves gave useful items but they couldn’t compare to the non-standard random boxes that gave legendary artifacts.

Zeke took a deep breath as he looked at the two out-of-spec random boxes in front of him.

He placed the newly created random box out of standard into the Ark of the Covenant.

All items that entered and exited the Ark had their abilities increased.

Zig began to make serious preparations by placing two random boxes outside the standard that had their abilities increased by the Ark of the Covenant.

“What happens next is important.”

Zig put the elixirs and other necessary materials including the random boxes outside the standard specifications into the production system one by one.

This was a combination method that I created myself by testing various methods with low-grade random boxes.

I had some of the necessary materials but I was able to fill in the missing ones by purchasing them at the store using points.

By repelling this Demon invasion in defense mode I once again earned a large amount of points so my points have almost surpassed ten million.

Thanks to this Zeke was able to invest his points generously to buy materials and complete all preparations.

“Whew. Let’s go and see!”

Zig was also nervous because it was his first time trying this combination with a non-standard random box.

If you make a mistake you could end up just blowing away the expensive materials.

Zig took a deep breath and carefully pressed the production button.

Then as production began two out-of-spec random boxes were combined into one.

Wooooow!

Light streamed out of the floating system window creating an effect I had never seen before.

A message appeared before Zeke’s eyes.

[Production is being carried out in a new unrecorded way.]

[The user’s strong will triggers the power of luck.]

[The influence of luck produces the best result value for the user.]

[I discovered a new way to combine random boxes outside the standard.]

[A new combination recipe that did not exist before has been created.]

[The combination is recorded in the Akashic Code.]

[The rank of the immortal who succeeds in combining is greatly increased.]

Zeke was surprised to see the message.

‘You can become a god just by finding a combination method that didn’t exist before?’

It seemed that divinity could be raised in a different way than when the soul was raised before the Transcendent One.

Wooooow!

As Zig was lost in thought while reading the message a new random box that had been completed appeared in front of him.

‘huh?’

Surprisingly what was created was not a box.

A sealed jar with a smooth shining white surface sat before Zig.

Unlike the existing random boxes Zigg looked puzzled at the jar that looked like something he had never seen before.

‘I’m sure the combination was successful… but what is this?’

Zik checked the name of the jar first.

[The Primordial Jar]

“The Primordial Jar?”

Zig approached the Primordial Jar with a puzzled look on his face as something completely different from the random box came out.

His original plan was to place the combined random boxes into the Ark power them up again and then open the boxes to get new items.

He tried to place the primordial jar into the Ark of the Covenant but surprisingly a warning message appeared.

[Items of a higher grade than the Ark cannot be placed in it.]

This meant that the Primordial Jar was a higher grade item than the Ark a legendary item that contained the power of the Primordial Light.

“What on earth is this….”

After much thought Zeke decided to open the Primordial Jar.

“Phew.”

He took a deep breath and tried to open the lid of the Primordial Jar realizing that it was a higher grade item than the Ark.

But strangely no matter how hard I applied force the lid would not open.

As he was looking at the jar with a puzzled expression a message appeared before Zeke’s eyes.

[You do not have enough divinity to open the item.]

“what?”

An item was created that even Zeke who had achieved divinity by becoming a transcendent being could not open.

Zik looked at the primordial jar and became lost in thought.

“You must elevate your divinity to open this.”

The quickest way to increase your divinity was to absorb a constellation.

He thought of the fallen constellations sealed in Solomon’s ring.

‘Absorb them and raise your level to divinity then open it?’

The problem was that it was not known to what extent their divinity would be elevated if they were absorbed in that way and there was also the possibility that the powers they possessed would combine with Zeke’s unique powers and disappear.

‘If you absorb the Seal of the Arrogant Savior your divinity will increase so it would be better to wait a bit and open it then.’

I was very curious about what was inside but I didn’t really need to go on an adventure so I decided to put it in my inventory and keep it for now.

After deciding what to do with the jar and organizing the items the next thing Zigg had to do was unlock the 6th level dragon skill.

To unlock the 6th level of the Dragon Clan skill 20000 points were required.

In fact points weren’t that important to Zig at the moment.

What was more important was whether I could unlock that stage and use those skills.

‘Before I gained divinity I couldn’t even unlock the 6th level. But now…’

Zig opened the system window and first unlocked the 6th level of the Dragon Clan skill.

[Unlocks Dragon Clan Skill Level 6.]

A list of six levels of skills appeared before Zeke’s eyes.

―Dragon Clan Skill Level 6―

Verb (locked)

The only skill in the 6th level was ‘Verbal’.

‘There is no level 7 skill.’

It meant that it was the last skill that a verb could learn.

This was something that Zeke had expected to some extent.

Having become a transcendent being and attaining godhood Zeke was already able to exert power stronger than Jackie Chan.

The dragon’s words were the most important sign that the dragon had passed the hatchling stage and become a true dragon.

The reason why they are stronger than any other race and can exert the mystical power to control the phenomenal world.

It was because they could handle verbs.

Zik checked the information on the verb.

―Introducing Dragon Clan Skills―

Verb: You can manipulate the composition of the phenomenal world with karma by putting your will into words. (1000000 points required to unlock)

After reading the contents Zig couldn’t help but be amazed. Being able to control the phenomenal world through speech is a god-like ability and that is precisely what Yongseon is.

Although Zeke has karma points he cannot use them without going through the system.

However if he mastered the verbs it meant that he could use the karma points he had accumulated in other ways.

He had previously seen the story of the hermit using karma directly to transcend causality.

If he used verbs Zigg might have been able to do something as miraculous as that.

Zig took a deep breath and released his dragon skill Dragon Speech.

[You have acquired the Dragon Tribe skill level 6 <Dragon Language>.]

Zig took a deep breath as he acquired the verb skill.

But then it happened.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

The central chamber where the dragon’s heart was located began to beat rapidly.

At the same time Zig fell to his knees due to the intense pain he felt in his heart.

“Ugh.”

As he was trying to figure out what was happening a message appeared before his eyes.

[With the acquisition of the dragon tongue the immortal body awakens into a complete dragon body.]

[The dragon’s heart which was temporarily stored before the interruption combines with the heart of the immortal.]

The heart of Bahamut and the heart of the Elder Dragon which had been asleep before the interruption were combined with Zeke’s heart.

In his previous life the interruption that Nigel had forcibly created for Zeke permeated his heart causing it to completely awaken into the heart of a dragon.

“Ugh!”

It was a pain that twisted the entire soul and even the power of immortality or complete recovery could not do anything about it.

At that time Zig’s unique power Infinite Breakthrough came into play.

[The unique power Infinite Breakthrough accelerates the combination of the Dragon’s Heart and the Immortal’s Heart.]

[Unique Power Full Recovery reduces shock.]

As the message came to him an earthquake seemed to occur through Zeke’s body accompanied by intense pain.

Woodduduk!

Zeke’s body changed once again.

A body that was close to perfection was reconstructed to fit the status of a transcendent being beyond human.

If he were a normal human he would have died from a burst heart unable to overcome this pain.

But Zeke was able to overcome the pain with two unique powers.

“Ugh! Ugh!”

The pain finally subsided and my newly awakened body began to settle into place.

A message appeared before Zeke’s eyes as he overcame the pain once.

[With the complete awakening of the Ancient Dragon’s Body the compression rate of the Seal Stone is reduced to 25%.]

[All proficiency levels of the Dragon Clan skills you have will increase to Expert.]

[The power of the shadow spirits possessed by the immortal increases.]

[The Master Manager System’s functions are renewed with the acquisition of verbs.]

[Added features to Offense Mode which expands Defense Mode.]

[To activate the single offense mode you must build a base by installing an offense tower at the attack point or deploy a mobile base.]

By acquiring the Dragon’s Word you can fully awaken the power of the Dragon and acquire Dragon Clan skills as well as new administrator system functions.

‘Offense mode?’

Zigg checked the content again with a new concept. It meant that it was possible to build a fort and attack enemies as an extension of the defense mode that blocks incoming enemies.

As Zeke read the description of the Offense Mode he was reminded of the invasion fortress that the Demon World Princesses had.

‘It seems like a similar concept.’

The invasion fortress received from the Demon Lord by the princesses is extremely powerful in a serious battle.

If Zeke could use such power it would certainly be of great help when attacking the Abyss’ stronghold.

He quickly ran through the configuration of the offense mode.

It was planned to use karma points to set up offense towers at key points of the enemies to attack set up the range of the base and build a base there.

The structure of the offense mode somehow felt familiar to Zeke.

‘This is almost identical to the Demon World chess I played with Anastasia.’

Since the game of chess itself was created based on the playful battles of the constellations it may have been natural that the Kabbalah system would be similar to it.

Since Zeke had already mastered all relevant strategies through Demon World Chess it seemed like he would have no trouble utilizing Offense Mode in battle.

However it is not exactly the same so it is necessary to know exactly and while looking closely at the functions of the offense mode Zeke paused for a moment in thought.

‘A mobile base. Does that mean something like a floating ship?’

In Demon World Chess you could produce pieces and systems to take part in battles which allowed you to utilize floating ships capable of aerial combat in the later stages of battles.

Zeke figured that if the offense mode had similar functionality to the chess of the demon world then it would be able to move these floating ships as well.

‘But since we can’t actually produce floating ships it means we have to link them to existing ones.’

Zig remembered that there was a list of stronghold areas that could be linked in defense mode.

“Is there a mobile base registered that can be linked with the system offense mode?”

In response to his question the system displayed a message.

[A mobile base that can be linked is registered.]

Zig’s eyes widened at the system’s response.

“Show me a list of mobile bases.”

His request brought back a system message.

[Loads a list of ‘mobile bases’ that can be linked with Offense Mode.]
