Chapter 451: Special EVENT?!
A burning portal later…
Jack couldn’t help but stare at this new world.
A burning land that made the Subterranean Land with its lava rivers look like a tranquil paradise. The rocks were on fire, the ground was on fire, and even the sky was on fire!
This place had seemingly been designed for dragons, just the heat alone enough to make the newcomers’ scales sizzle! And as soon as they arrived, it began.
[ᴡʟ ᴛᴏ ʟᴢᴀʀᴅɢᴅᴅᴏ!]
[ꜱᴛʀᴜɢɢʟ! ꜱᴜʀᴠᴠ! ᴄᴏQᴜʀ! ꜱʟᴀᴠ!]
[ꜱʜᴏᴡ ꜱᴄᴀʟʏ ʏᴏᴜʀ ᴡᴏʀᴛʜ! ʟɢᴏ ᴠꜱ ʟɢᴏ!]
Burning words appeared in the fiery sky, the lizards Jack was with instantly recoiling with fear. In a Legion game, their only chance would be to get lucky!
In fact, many already had a plan in mind!
“My Shaman said to hide! But where?!”
“Maybe behind those boulders?”
“Guys, let’s bury ourselves!”
God knows what genius had proposed the last one! Had any fan of the Demon King been watching, they would have probably screamed: Hell yes! Yet, he was the first to frown.
Giving a sardonic smile, Jack suddenly attacked!
He created a Magical Spear and… CRASH! Before anyone could react, he stabbed VERY deep right at the guy who had proposed this! Wait, he was actually aiming at his feet?!
Drill! Drill! Drill!
Jack barely pierced the ground’s surface, and— GUSH! Suddenly, a torrent of fire escaped the soil as if the ground itself had been explosive! Chuckling, he glanced at the others.
“How is it? Still think we should hide underground?”
Hide underground? This would be the fastest way to become BBQ! No, for once, that was ABSOLUTELY not an option! But just as some were already freaking out.
“It’s coming… there’s something different about this one?!” A certain third-eyed lizard suddenly remarked, his extra eye already tingling as it felt the Mana gathering in the air!
Enough Mana to destroy the world.
Enough Mana to create one anew!
Enough Mana to make them sick!
[ᴅɢ! ꜱᴘᴄᴀʟ ᴠᴛ!]
[ᴛʜꜱ ꜱ ᴛʜ ʟᴀꜱᴛ ʟᴢᴀʀᴅɢᴅᴅᴏ!]
[ꜱᴄᴀʟʏ ᴏꜰꜰʀꜱ ʏᴏᴜ ᴀ ᴄʀᴅʙʟ ɢꜰᴛ!]
That’s when they felt it happen.
Incredible energy gathered in the air before coalescing where they had spawned! Under their shell-shocked eyes, a gleaming circle happened along with a crystal and an Altar?!
Everything glowed so much that their eyes menaced to burst out! Yet, what truly mattered was the power coming out of it. It was intoxicating! So this was Scaly’s gift, eh?
They couldn’t help but stare shellshocked…
“It’s so beautiful! My scales are tingling!”
“Ain’t just my scales tingling…”
“So much power! Waaaa!”
But before they could even recover from the shock, there was something more. Under the crystal was a strange altar and a large bowl that seemed to gather a strange liquid.
White, sticky, and absolutely oozing with power!
How many lives was this thing worth?
Definitely countless!
As soon as the lizards saw it, they instantly felt a deep desire to gulp it, stemming from the very core of their being. And this impetus got even stronger with a certain message.
[ᴅɢ! ᴀᴘᴘʀᴏᴀᴄʜ ᴀᴅ ʀᴄᴠ ꜱᴄᴀʟʏ’ꜱ ᴛᴀᴄʜɢꜱ!]
[ᴡᴀʀɢ! ᴄᴏꜱᴜᴍ ʟᴍᴛᴅ Qᴜᴀᴛᴛʏ!]
[ᴏ ᴅʀᴏᴘ— ᴏ ᴍᴍᴏʀʏ!]
Insane! This was insane!
This was similar to the evolution statues, but instead of changing their body this one would change their mind. They could already feel their neurons fire faster just looking at it!
With intense greed, they all wanted to rush to it, but then— Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap! All Jack did was walk, ever so slowly, yet his steps felt deafening in the silence.
“Oh? Scaly’s Hand-Picked Memories? Sounds fun!” As he casually approached the altar, none dared to stand in his way. They’d way for him to be done, then they’d fight!
As long as they could get a single drop… or many! They all stood at attention, impatiently waiting. Seeing this, Jack playfully seemed to take his goddamn time!
He lazily dipped a claw in the bowl, scooping a single drop. Frowning, he warily tasted it, his face changing! So damn tasty! The consistency of milk, but the taste of cake icing?!
But before he could even say anything, it happened:
[ᴘʟᴀꜱ ꜱᴛᴀᴅʙʏ! ᴏʙᴛᴀɢ ᴡ ᴍᴍᴏʀꜱ!]
He suddenly felt a rush overwhelm him. For an instant, he seemed to forget that he had ever been human, the experiences of dozens of lizard soldiers invading him!
It was as if he was living through a couple more lives at once, not just seeing what they had gone through but also feeling it completely! For an instant, he even lost himself!
He had always been a lizard!
He had always hated other races!
He had always wanted to reduce them to— Slavery?! That’s when he came back to his senses. This thing had it so wrong! Some people didn’t even deserve that! #AllMeatMatter!
“So that’s how it is, eh? I understand.”
Special Event for the last Lizardgeddon? More like the last brainwashing attempt! There was objectively nothing wrong with that, but it collided with his own brainwashing plans!
That’s when he turned toward his poor Legion. By now, they were as thirsty as African kids in scam ads! Their tongues hung out, and their eyes were begging for more!
“Hehe, don’t worry, you guys will have your turn! Let me just take one more sip…” Jack gave them an innocent smile before he took one last sip… really.
GULP!
GULP!
GULP!
GULP!
Under their shell-shocked eyes, he went to town!
He was guzzling it all down without stopping, faster than a fratboy at his first party! They wanted to protest, they wanted to cry, and yet he didn’t stop at all.
He utterly ignored their knees going weak as they fell to the flaming ground, not even minding the charring sounds echoing. No, he just kept going!
All until it was all empty. And just as he was done, a familiar-looking System Message appeared! One that was only back because he had managed to traumatize the other one!
[You?! Are you trying to kill yourself?!]
[That’s Way too many memories!]
[You’ll go mad for sure!]
“Hehe, worried about me? Glad to have you back!” Giving a confident smile, Jack burped once, all worries seemingly gone out of his mind. But then a second later, IT began….
Fuck, he was gonna be sick….
