Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 1210  Captured

Coming into the underground area of the central island where the teleportation altar was located, Anastasia deactivated the Soul Resonance skill and felt a stinging pain in her soul.

Because she had assimilated her Progenitor powers and reached the 50% mark, her body was full of power, and she had a feeling that she could run millions of kilometres using only her natural physical strength.

However, because she had used Soul Resonance—which literally burns her soul to increase her power—her soul was completely drained.

This created a unique situation where her body brimmed with strength, but her soul was very weak.

"Ha! I hope when he comes back, his rank will be high enough to integrate the Primordial Shadow Realm with his core..." Anastasia muttered with a sigh. "Once he integrates the Primordial Shadow Realm with his core, I won't need to keep my Essence Clone there to maintain it, and I will finally be able to use all my powers without any restrictions."

As Anastasia spoke, she took out a token and projected a holographic screen in front of her, showing what was happening on the Dragon Islands.

Once Anastasia left, Zalthorak and the other high-level dragons regained their mobility and were no longer suppressed by her Progenitor powers.

Immediately afterwards, they first rescued the fire dragons who were floating in the Boundless Ocean like broken boats and then checked the place where the Fire Dragon Island had once been.

However, what shocked Zalthorak and the other dragons was that, despite such a powerful attack, they couldn't detect even a hint of aura at the location to determine who had attacked them.

Zalthorak and the others even searched the sky where the black claw had torn apart space and descended on Fire Dragon Island, but still, they couldn't feel any aura and everything there was normal as if a force had wiped away every trace of the attacker.

'The bloodline suppression we all felt during the attack indicates that the person who attacked us was closely related to dragons, but who could have such a high-level bloodline that it could even surpass Rank Six Dragons...' Zalthorak thought with a frown on his face and Anastasia's image came to mind.

However, as soon as this thought surfaced, he immediately dismissed it because he felt it was impossible for Anastasia to have such power.

He had met her before, and although her bloodline was very high and her powers far superior to his, her bloodline was not on the same level as the attacker.

Moreover, the last time he saw her, she was seriously injured by Akasha, and her rank had dropped to mid-level Rank Six so he didn't believe she could cause such destruction.

"The power of the person who destroyed Fire Dragon Island was at least on par with His Majesty Eldrakar, if not stronger..." Zalthorak muttered with a serious expression, his gaze falling on the muddy seawater below—symbolizing the destruction of an entire island and his face turned extremely grim.

In the thousands of years of the Dragon Islands' history, this was the first time they had suffered such a loss, and what made it even worse was that they had no idea who the culprit was. On top of that, they were currently at war with the Gehenna Empire and couldn't spare enough manpower to fully investigate what had happened.

"Since the culprit can destroy an entire island right under our noses and escape safely, there is a high chance they will do the same thing again," Zalthorak muttered to himself, his eyes flashing with cold light.

After thinking for a moment, he took out his communication crystal and called Drozon, who had gone after Ashley.

A moment later, the call connected. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Return to the Dragon Islands. Something serious has happened," Zalthorak said immediately after the connection was established.

Knowing Drozon's character, Zalthorak expected him to nag like an old grandpa about being called back so suddenly. But to his surprise, Drozon said something unexpected.

"I am already on my way back to the Dragon Islands. I should be there in a few hours."

"You are coming back already? Does that mean..." Zalthorak left the sentence unfinished, but Drozon understood what he was asking.

"Of course. Did you think I wouldn't be able to catch a Rank Five Core Evolver?" Drozon replied in a smug voice.

Zalthorak took a deep breath and tried to calm his excitement at Drozon's words.

'There is a high chance that the person who destroyed the Fire Dragon Island and the one who destroyed the void tunnel are related. If we investigate her properly, we might catch a big fish...' He thought before speaking in a serious voice.

"All right, bring her back as soon as possible."

"Sure, sure. But earlier, you said something serious happened. What's going on?" Drozon asked, his voice filled with curiosity.

Hearing Drozon, Zalthorak glanced at the muddy seawater below him, and his mouth twitched.

"You will understand when you get back," He replied, deciding to keep the details to himself for the time being and ended the call.

After the call ended, Zalthorak looked at the fire dragons roaring in agony and the other dragons tending to them, his eyes flashing coldly.

'Once I find out who did this, I won't let them off...' He said to himself as he returned to the central island.

In the underground area of the central island, through the holographic screen, Anastasia listened in on the conversation between Zalthorak and Drozon, a dangerous smile spreading across her face.

"These bastards are really forcing me to turn this place upside down..." She muttered in a chilling voice, taking a deep breath to calm herself.

After a minute of reflection, once she had calmed down, Anastasia felt that something wasn't right.

"Although Drozon's innate ability is a perfect counter to Ashley's space laws, knowing that girl, she shouldn't have been caught so easily..." She muttered, a thoughtful look crossing her face as she recalled the various escape artefacts she had seen Ashley carry.

As she pondered the situation, something clicked in Anastasia's mind, and her eyes widened in shock.

"Could it be..."
