Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel-Chapter 201 Peak Grandmaster
In the morning, the Fortress along with Zick were teleported to the middle continent. Their first objective was to take over the Mhydrasvil empire.
With no prior notice of such a disaster, the Mhydresvil empire could only resist for a few hours before being fully taken over.
Many golems roamed the streets, killing the citizens left and right. As for the ones who surrendered, they were left alone. All of them would be sacrificed in the end anyway.
Looking at the sight from the screen, Zick turned away his head, feeling there was no need for his attention in the matter.
Receiving a message in the bracelet, Zick's eyes widened: 'He accepted.....'
Zick had actually carried out a risky task — proposing to the demon lord to join forces with him.
Before, Zick was still powerless and did not consider executing this plan. But after gathering sufficient power, it was highly likely for the demon lord to accept his proposal.
However, the demon lord asked a very doubtful thing in return. To hand over Aeiron.
'How can He know about Aeiron? There was no sign of him knowing about him in the novel....' Zick frowned, not being able to tell what as going on.
'...Aeiron is my trump card that I was going to keep hidden, but it doesn't seem to be possible anymore. And, hmph, as I thought, he will only accept me as a subordinate in the end.' Zick could clearly feel the demon lord's attitude from this.
Zick had deliberately set their meeting time one week from now. By then, three biological golems would be completed too. And the rail gun would also be finished along with the barrier.
'If he had accepted me as a collaborator, I would have had no problem. But to be his servant....' Zick's eyes narrowed.
He would be lying if he said this didn't make him feel exasperated, but he could still accept it.
What worried him was that all his assets would be known by the demon lord. And he would be disposed of in the future easily.
'Well, if it has come down to this then....I have no other choice...' Determination flashed by Zick's eyes, he did not bother wearing the eyepatch within the fortress.
Zick got up from the seat, he was going to be busy from this instant.
What Zick currently felt was utter despair and helplessness. This feeling made his eyes appear hollow.
Aeiron was his one and only trump card that had high chances of success. Or it was at least supposed to be.
According to the cat's memory, the place where the giant species was sealed was near the demon continent. Hence, the demon lord was aware of its existence.
And from the statement that the novel showed-
[ The demon lord would have long became a god if not for the giants. ] It was apparent that they had some connection.
Seeing the giants race still sealed, this method was still usable, but the demon lord would not fall for it anymore.
And finally,
Could any of the people he was nurturing reach the demon lord's level? A demigod?
No one!
Not a single one of them could reach it.
Even if they all could reach grandmaster rank, they along with Zick's all forces would still have zero chance of defeating the demon lord.
That was the conclusion Zick came in the end. After all, according to Levienel and Yuriel statement. A demigod could destroy around half of the world by himself.
In other words, the strength the demon lord revealed in the novel was just a fraction of it.
Therefore, Zick felt despair. Now...He could only take a gamble.
'All of the blessings....Seveleen's, Varine's and all of the people who have God's blessing, I would need to extract it from them....' Zick started executing orders to unit one at once.
'I was planning on leaving the dragons alone, but now I can only use them and increase my strength. I should start killing them after another two biological golems are born.' Zick's mind worked at lightning speed while giving out orders one by one through the wristband in his hand.
And then he began ordering the genie too, stopping all the long term researches. All focus was put on only some specific experiment.
There was no hesitation in Zick's mind.
He gave another order to the genie: "Create another biological golem only using monsters' bodies."
Another message from Levienel was received by Zick. His face grew darker seeing Levienel's evaluation of the demon lord.
The sound of Zick's sigh travelled through the room.
'I see, so defeating him isn't an option as I thought.....'
.....
Levienel, who came back after performing her act of a messenger to the demon lord, headed towards Anastasia and Leona to capture them both.
She still felt her skin tingly remembering the demon lord's presence. It went past the level of a demigod, he was just a few steps away from entities like gods.
The chances of killing such a being was not possible for anyone at her level.
The fact that such being still existed in this world shocked Levienel. Thinking of defeating such a thing was the height of stupidity.
.....
Six days went by in a blink of an eye.
And a letter from the Gorthect empire was delivered at last. The content was as Zick expected.
They grandly invited him to their empire, the reason being — to express their gratitude.
But at this moment, the royal palace was in a hectic state.
Both Zick and his companions disappeared a few days ago.
Surprisingly, the two kingdoms were left alone. There was no time to turn them into biological golems.
And the fact that the fortress and all strong golem vanished was known by them. Many people became suspicious seeing such an occurrence.
Sitting at the couch, Zick slowly chewed at the raw meat before him. A mana filled with nature's characteristics was being released by it. Evidently it was dragon meat.
In the past three days, four dragons were killed. A water dragon, fire dragon, wind dragon and a dark dragon.
The piece of dragon meat in Zick's hand was the last of it.
'I can't even grow any stronger by eating dragons. There is a limit after all....' Zick, who had become a peak grandmaster thought so.
In the process of killing the dragons, Zick surprisingly lost one of his biological golem too. Bringing the number down to four from five.
Zick could feel the difference between a master rank and a grandmaster. It was not possible to strengthen his higher form of energy through the mana in the surrounding.
The only way to grow stronger was to condense his high form of energy and strengthen his soul using it. As the soul grows stronger, The higher form of energy does too.
Zick's soul was strengthened only slightly as it was already very strong. What mattered was that — he could use soul skills now!
Due to the baptism from the black miasma from the doll, Zick's soul had a very atrocious ability put into it.
Along with the soul ability, The third art of the demonic eye was also released.
'I am an archmage again too. I have now long surpassed my past strength and reached a new height. But the wall before me is still too high, it is not possible to go past it.' Zick's eyes were filled with melancholy.
Right now, Zick was aiming to kill the ancient dragon. Though its strength was unfathamable, he needed its body to strengthen himself further.
The ancient dragon's habitat was found by Levienel, after Zick gave orders to search for it in every corner of the continents. In the end, it was in the middle continent and it was a sand dragon.
'I have grasped the origin power of the dragons too. I have already surpassed Yuriel and the others. I will fight the ancient dragon and get used to my strength for now.' Zick's eyes went to Arianell who had fallen asleep on his lap.
Patting her smooth hair for a while, Zick began taking her to his room. It was still morning but she fell asleep like this.
A certain memory rose within Zick, it was about what happened a few days ago.
.....
"We refuse." Aeiron with a blank expression said so.
This happened when Zick directly tried to interact with God's blessing within Aeiron. He was asking to join hands again.
But was rejected with no hesitation.
The answer Zick got was very strange too: "You demon will betray us without a doubt. In the first place, there is no need to even talk on such matters. Because of you, everything will be destroyed...."
Seeing Zick's confused expression, a mocking look passed by Aeiron's face. After that, he lost consciousness again, entering a coma.
.....
With this exchange, Zick was sure that there was something that he was not aware of.
'I don't even have much time left anymore, sigh....'
An hour later,
Zick came out of the fortress, to the top where a large balcony existed. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m
The dark elves were left alone as they were useless too. Even if Zick began creating a biological golem now, it would not be ready by the time limit.
'I could have created another biological golem, but alas, I don't have enough time and even some materials are missing.' Zick looked down at the endless desert before the fortress.
After a second, suddenly sand started rising like a huge dune. It kept rising until two horns protruded from the surface.
ROAR!!!
A dragon erupted from the sands, it looked majestic with scales shining brilliantly in the sun. Energy waves were being released from its body, shaking the whole desert. It was like an earthquake was occurring.
Feeling the energy brushing past him, Zick smiled: 'It would have been undefeatable normally, but with all the methods that I have, I can defeat it by myself. Even if I can't, with the help of railgun and biological golems it's not a problem.'
Seeing The huge dragon heading up, Zick jumped down slowly. His body that moved slowly the air suddenly erupted with black light. His figure turned into a spear directly aiming at the ancient dragon.
