A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 542



Episode 542

It was the moment when Zeke was about to follow up with a follow-up attack.

Choaaaak―

Some of the blue blood clumped together and transformed into snake-like tentacles that lunged at Zeke.

Chwieeeeeek!

The tentacle made a strange noise and tried to bite Zeke’s face but Zeke immediately pulled out Ascalon and summoned the Holy Spirit.

Woooo …

The white light pouring from Zeke’s sword burned away the blue tentacles rushing toward him.

But that wasn’t the end.

Similar tentacles grew from the remaining blue blood scattered on the floor raised themselves and began to crawl towards Zeke.

At the same time the monster’s severed arm multiplied and rose up on its own transforming into a four-legged dog-shaped demon.

Krrrrrrrr―

The demon’s tail took the form of tentacles protruding from the blood.

Zeke recalled that the power of the Wyrin was ‘Blood Domination’.

‘Could it be possible that it can continue to multiply through blood?’

Since we were unable to obtain information about the subject’s abilities from the warlock who used the dragon’s wisdom we could only guess based on the situation.

As he was assessing the current situation a test subject with dozens of tentacles extending from its severed arm approached Zeke.

Even if we just cut it down like this judging by the current situation it will only continue to multiply and increase its population.

Instead of cutting down the guy Zeke lifted Ascalon and powerfully unleashed the Holy Spirit.

Wheeeeeek―

Then he slashed with his sword at the tentacles crawling up from the ground.

Seeing the tentacles that were hit by the sword strike with the power of the Holy Spirit scattering into black ash Zigg was able to confirm that the power of light was working on the test subject.

The tentacles created by the power of the evil spirit began to retreat wary of the spirit energy that Zeke possessed.

At that moment the wild dog demon that had transformed from the severed arm showed its sharp teeth and rushed towards Zeke.

Kaaa …

In an instant the wild dog’s mouth opened and blue blood poured out toward Zeke.

Zeke stepped back and fired a bolt of light at the demon.

As soon as the lightning struck its body the wild dog’s beast was shattered into pieces.

But this time tiny insects were born from the blue blood that the demon had previously spewed out.

Wheeeeeeeeing―

The flies gradually grew in size and soon became more than ten times the size of a typical wasp and flew around the jigsaw.

‘You’re doing all sorts of things.’

Since it changes form and continues to multiply using blood as a medium the burden on the opponent is bound to increase.

Zeke looked at the insects flying in from all directions in disbelief then summoned Ignis the superior fire spirit.

Kugugugugugu―

After acquiring the Dragon’s Word skill and obtaining the Perfect Dragon’s Heart his elementalism was also upgraded to expert so Zigg could now summon advanced elementals without having to polymorph.

Moreover with his affinity for spirits higher than before Zeke was able to give orders to Ignis through will alone.

Phew!

At Zeke’s will Ignis breathed flames at the bugs.

The insects caught in the spirit’s fiery wind all turned to ash and scattered.

Zeke conveyed his intention to Ignis to capture the test subject with the power of Wirinom.

thud!

Ignis in the form of an armored ape-man fully revealed its body and approached the test subject.

Then the test subject swung a bundle of tentacles at Ignis.

Kiiiiiiiiik―

A bundle of tentacles spurting blue blood tried to wrap themselves around Ignis.

But before that the spirit flames shot up and burned all the tentacles.

Kieeeeeek―

As the blood evaporated in the pure flames of the spirit the power of the blood-based demon was no longer exerted.

The subject instinctively felt danger when he saw Ignis who had abilities that were at odds with his own and he backed away hesitantly.

The subject ran towards the pile of corpses of the knights behind him reached out and grabbed them stuffing them into his mouth in a hurry.

Then blood flowed from the burned arm again creating tentacles and insect-like creatures.

Zeke seemed to know how the subject’s abilities worked.

‘Wirinom is a rider of blood and madness. Even if he drinks the blood of other living beings he can use it to exert his power as long as there is blood.’

Now that we know the true nature of the ability it wasn’t difficult to stop it.

If you just get rid of the blood that serves as the medium the power won’t be exerted.

Instead of giving orders with his will Zeke spoke to Ignis in a clear voice this time.

“Burn it all so that he can’t shed blood.”

Ignis nodded after hearing Zeke’s words.

[i get it.]

As Zeke began to attain divinity by becoming a transcendent being he was no different from a dragon so even Ignis a higher-level spirit followed his orders without question.

Ignis unleashed a powerful blast of flames at the test subject.

Kwakwakwakwa!

The subject was instantly struck by Ignis’ flames.

Keeeeeeek!

The boy screamed and tried to avoid the flames but there was no way to avoid the flames unleashed by the superior spirit.

The body of the test subject which had been lit by flames and heated to a white heat quickly turned to ash and died down.

Zeke looked at the scattered remains of the test subject and confirmed that he could no longer sense the power of the Weirin.

He looked around to see if there were any other cages containing other test subjects.

‘Fortunately this individual was the only test subject.’

But this underground labyrinth was vast and complex. So it was possible that there might be other test subjects with the power of fallen constellations besides Wirinom.

Zeke summoned Caligula by raising his shadow and gave him orders.

“Find a test subject that can sense the power of the constellations within the Caligula Labyrinth.”

Caligula nodded and leapt into the air to carry out Zeke’s orders.

Soon Caligula’s body faded and he transformed into an astral form and began to search the underground labyrinth.

Zeke whose soul was connected to Caligula could sense everything he sensed so he planned to rush to the subject as soon as he found it and eliminate the being.

After leaving the search for the test subject to Caligula Zeke delved further into the labyrinth.

After not moving for a while a group of warlocks and knights appeared running hurriedly.

“There’s an intruder in Area C! Send all personnel there!”

Seeing them heading in a different direction it seemed like they were sending security personnel to catch Boris and his group who had entered the other entrance to the labyrinth.

Zeke held his breath and quietly dug into the labyrinth.

As I went further down a space with a different feel from above appeared.

‘It’s thickly covered in magic.’

The entire space was filled with a strong magical energy that could be mistaken for the demonic world rather than the phenomenal world.

If he were a normal knight he wouldn’t be able to properly exert his powers just by entering a space filled with magic.

But this level of magic had no effect on Zeke.

He walked down the hallway hiding in the shadows calmly passing through the space filled with magic.

Soon armed men appeared in front.

Zeke stopped moving when he saw them.

‘Demon?’

A low-level demon warrior not a human knight was guarding the gate.

Zeke expected that behind this door there would be a portal leading to the center of the labyrinth.

‘The presence of a Demon Warrior means that there is a high possibility that there are stronger Demons waiting behind them.’

Since it seemed difficult to deal with the higher-level demons secretly Zig decided to finish them off as quickly as possible.

As soon as he made that judgment he raised his shadow and flew towards the lower-level demons.

Wheeeeeek―

The shadows instantly transformed into black blades soaring up and attacking the lower-level demons.

Clang-

The black blade instantly cut off the necks of the lower-level demons before they could even react.

Among the demons there were some who were still breathing even after their necks were cut off so Zigg immediately burned the remains of the lower-level demons with the Holy Spirit.

At the same time he broke down the door with his golden sword.

Kwakwakwakwang!

The door broke open and Zeke ran straight inside.

And waiting for Zeke behind the door were hundreds of black knights.

Kiriririk!

There were knights standing there holding greatswords wearing black armor that was much thicker and heavier than normal armor.

But what was surprising was what they were carrying on their backs.

They were all equipped with something like a long stick and when Zig saw this something came to mind.

‘Is that a magic gun?’

It looked larger and heavier than the sniper magic gun that Aeren used on the Night Killer but it was definitely a magic gun.

At that moment an ominous figure wearing a black skull mask and holding a staff appeared behind the Black Knights.

He looked more like a lich than a warlock but he didn’t have the typical undead feel.

Zeke was reminded of the black mask he had seen before in that skull mask.

It was Siemens’ secret weapon that infused the Black Knights with infinite magic allowing them to lead the immortal legion.

‘I thought I got rid of them all but there were still some left.’

As the skeleton mask lifted the staff it was holding a thick mist-like magical energy poured out.

At this signal the Immortal Forces began to move.

Chuck! Chuck! Chuck!

A red glow appeared within the helmets of the Black Knights and they lined up and advanced toward Zeke.

At the same time the giant magic gun on their backs moved forward and settled on their shoulders.

Crunch!

The magic gun aimed at Zeke and started firing black bullets.

Kwakwakwakwa!

Bullets larger and heavier than sniper magic bullets rained down on Zigg.

Bullets poured out continuously from hundreds of black knights flying from all directions.

Zeke quickly raised his Shadow Armor and blocked their attacks.

Doo doo doo doo!

But the force was so strong that the parts that were hit were torn and dug inward.

‘Ramon Siemens. You were making weapons like this in the labyrinth.’

Ramon Siemens the head of Siemens was developing a secret weapon to conquer the continent and hiding it in this labyrinth.

However after being eaten by Abel due to his greed Siemens’ underground labyrinth was completely taken over by Narak and the secret weapons were further strengthened with black magic.

Cheeeeeeek―

Even after the massive hail of bullets had ended black smoke lingered for a while where Zeke had been.

When the smoke cleared only sunken bullet holes remained as if an explosion had occurred.

The skull mask raised his staff and gave orders to the black knights again.

Chuck! Chuck! Chuck!

The black knights in the lead walked forward with their guns pointed forward.

They approached where Zeke had been and looked around.

But I couldn’t find anything.

It was at that time that I was trying to report that there was nothing wrong with him.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk―

Beyond where the Black Knights were Zeke appeared from behind the skull mask on the platform.

Zeke cut off the skull mask’s head with one blow from Ascalon.

Choaaaak!

The skull mask’s neck cut by the holy sword rolled on the floor and at the same time Zig created a field of pure flames from the fire power that was created on the remaining body of the skull mask.

Whoosh whoosh!

In an instant a white flame engulfed the body.

Zeke knew from his previous combat experience that in order to neutralize the Black Knights the immortal legion he had to first strike at the skeleton masks that controlled them.

That’s why he used the power of the spirit transformation to cross the dimension and move straight to where the skeleton mask was and attack it.

The completely burned body of the skeleton mask scattered into black powder.

It was a clean finish but there was a problem. The Black Knights changed direction and aimed their guns at Zeke again.

Kwakwakwakwa!

Bullets rained down on the stage.

Zeke raised his shadow again to block it.

‘What’s going on? If we catch that guy the Black Knights should stop.’

As Zeke tried to dodge the attack by flying into the air and dodging bullets while remaining shadowed something came into his sight.

Surprisingly the skeleton mask that had just been killed by Zeke was back in good health holding the staff and controlling the Black Knights.

Kookookookookook!

The magical energy flowing from the staff seemed to replenish the bullets of the Black Knights.

Perhaps that’s why the amount of bullets flying towards Zeke didn’t decrease at all.

‘It’s not something that can be avoided.’

He created a shield out of Shadow Armor and holding Ascalon in his hand he turned and descended from the air towards the Black Knights.

Kookookookookook!

A brilliant light emanated from Zig’s body which was wrapped in the Holy Spirit.

He focused the light on his sword and assumed the stance of the Dragon Slayer.

Dragon’s Slaughter Special

Holy Spirit Technology

Light Explosion Wave

A brilliant light descended upon the place where the Black Knights were.

Zaaaaaaang―

The entire space was engulfed in a huge light.
