The Return Of The God Level Assassin

THE land of Achaeus was located on a lone island on the southern seas. It was quite isolated from the rest of Arcadia. With nothing but endless blue ocean surrounding it. Luo Yan was glad for this kind of setting. At least once they tried to blow up the island, no one would be affected. Only the fishes made of data would.

He closed his eyes and felt the sea breeze on his face. Once he opened his eyes, he looked towards the wide blue sea. They were currently on a small ship anchored in the middle of the sea. This ship belonged to team Yunyue. Shen Ji Yun took it out from their team’s treasury just so they could use it for today.

After they went back to the other’s island to take Dusk and Eclipse with them, they headed straight to Calnia Port – the harbor located on the South Coast of Arcadia. Shen Ji Yun then took out a crystal globe with a ship inside. Luo Yan was surprised when the other threw it on the ocean and it became a literal ship. They, then, embarked towards the land of Achaeus.

Frankly speaking, it would be much faster if they just flew there on Dusk’s back. But the other was still affected by the conversation they had with the red dragon this morning. As evidence of his silence. Luo Yan was not so heartless that he would let someone who was obviously down to be their mode of transportation.

Besides, there was also a chance that those dark mages could spot them. After all, a dragon was very eye-catching. Not to mention, Dusk was the dragon that the dark mages should be most familiar with.

It’s the same way that he didn’t even consider the option of Shen Ji Yun flying them there. Because a qilin was almost no different from a dragon. They were both attention grabbing.

And since they couldn’t directly teleport there, the ship was the next best thing. The only disadvantage they got was that their travel time visibly slowed. When they were about four-five kilometers away from their destination, they stopped and anchored the ship near a small island. Using it as some sort of shield just in case those from Achaeus spotted them.

Luo Yan was standing on the deck of the ship, looking down at the map given to them by Beelzebub. It’s one of the few useful things that the archdemon gave them as preparation for sneaking inside the island.

The map he was holding was the map of Achaeus. It showed the terrain and different infrastructures inside the island. This was not a simple map. If one touch a particular building or place, it would show the detailed parts of the said place.

Their final destination was one of the temples inside. According to this map, it was called the Obsidian Temple. It’s where Beelzebub’s body was being kept. He touched it and it showed the map of the temple.

There was a step-by-step guide on how they would go to the spot where the body was. There were even notes on what they should avoid, so they wouldn’t trigger things like traps and the likes. With this, getting the body was almost as easy as taking candy from a kid.

Of course, it wouldn’t be really that easy. A lot of factors could still come into play that might ruin this. That’s why it’s still better to exercise caution.

But he must say, the archdemon had really prepared a lot. From the secret passages on the island to how one could safely enter and exit it. It could be seen how thoroughly his preparation was. It probably took years and years just to achieve this.

Honestly, even if it’s not the four of them, anyone could probably take Beelzebub’s body out of the island. So, why wait for this moment and not just asked somebody else? Maybe he could have healed Alina much earlier if he did.

Then, he suddenly realized something important. This was a game and the archdemon was an NPC. Taking out his body was part of the hidden task – Awakening Dragon. He needed to wait for someone to trigger that task and find him at that tower for him to make that deal. Which in turn became a side task.

Really, the graphics in this game was just too realistic that he couldn’t help but think of the NPCs here as real people. Even applying real-life logic to them.

He closed the map and put it back in his Items Tab. Just after doing that, he heard a voice from the side.

"Mashter, is Captain still not back?"

Luo Yan glanced down at Eclipse who was staring up at him. "I think he’ll be back soon."

Shen Ji Yun was currently on the island near them, observing Achaeus. Most likely using that binocular-like item he had used earlier. The other had mentioned to him that the range it could see reached up to five kilometers. So, he could see Achaeus from here perfectly.

"How’s your uncle?" he asked, referring to Dusk.

The little boy immediately pouted. "Uncle is inside the ship. He’s still depressed. He doesn’t even react when Eclipse was annoying him."

Luo Yan put his hand on top of the hat Eclipse was wearing and gently patted it. "Don’t worry, he’ll be back to normal soon and he’ll banter with you again."

"Eclipse also hopes so," Eclipse said with a sad look on his face.

"He will. I promise," Luo Yan said, comforting the kid. "Besides, we’re going to do something tomorrow that will definitely cheer him up."

Eclipse appeared confuse at first before a look of enlightenment appeared on his face. As if just realizing what his master meant.

"Ah, we’re going to kill a lot of dark mages tomorrow!"

Luo Yan smiled. "Yes. We’re going to take revenge for what they have done to your parents and the rest of your tribe. And then," he looked at the distance as if seeing the island of Achaeus itself. "We’re going to destroy everything."
