Chapter 454: Attack! Defend! Hunt!
All lizards stared at the sky…
A radiant red and greenish glow had just appeared, Jack steeling himself. Then a second later, words of fire suddenly formed in the air.
[Last Lizardgeddon!]
[Legions Versus Legions!]
[Only The Strong Shall Remain!]
That’s when it began. The knowledge-sharing altar and the Mana crystal in their base suddenly lit up like a small sun as countless screens rose up.
[Ding! 12th Legion’s Base Now Created!]
[Protect! Destroy Enemy bases! Hunt for Power!]
[In This World, Only The Strong Deserve to Live!]
Jack’s group couldn’t help but gasp in shock. They had to defend, attack, AND hunt?! How were they supposed to do that with their small numbers?! They suddenly felt unsteady.
But while most were about to despair, one wasn’t.
“Please give this one orders, my lord!”
A certain three-eyed lizard didn’t hesitate, already bowing in front of Jack with a smile. For some reason, he didn’t seem worried one bit?! And with him leading, many followed suit.
Before Jack, there was now a line of bowing lizards, all awaiting his instructions. But it wasn’t the only thing that happened. With a resounding CLICK, flying lights appeared!
They looked like fiery fireflies, but Jack knew what they were: cameras! So from now on everything would be streamed to the spectators outside, eh? Fine by him!
“Well, there’s only so many of us here so…. WE LEAVE!”
Jack led by example, already rushing out as if Naruto-running! He was so fast that he would have made a father running from child support look like an amateur!
Many followed, but they had barely run a few dozen meters from their crystal when they were suddenly shown a very ominous message:
[Warning! Warning! Losing Your Crystal Means Death!]
[Are You Sure You Wish To Leave It Behind?]
[This Is Extremely Unwise!]
“Don’t care!”
Jack kept running, but this time, he was the only one! The others showed extreme unease as they didn’t hesitate to share their apprehensions:
“Die?! We definitely can’t leave then!”
“We have to protect it, no matter what!”
“YES! Otherwise, even a scout could destroy it!”
Their self-preservation instinct had kicked in with full power! Even their own shamans couldn’t have convinced them to leave! But Jack still had to try anyway!
“You weaklings! Are you that cowardly? Don’t you understand? We have to be decisive. We attack like a storm, and we teach them the meaning of fear! We—”
Jack paused, a wry smile appearing as he changed strategy.
“Think of the Apples…”
Think of the apples. This didn’t mean anything, did it? What kind of motivational speech was this? Back outside, many couldn’t help but snicker.
“Pfft— This lizard’s the worst candidate ever!”
“Apples? What is this fool thinking?”
“He’s not thinking, obviously!”
Many lost interest in the 12th Legion; it had been doomed from the start anyway. Yet, that’s when it happened. Apples, was it? To most it didn’t mean much, but to them, it DID!
At this moment, they all remembered the same vision…
Crazy lizards enslaving and even eating elves.
Crazy lizards becoming a superpower.
Crazy yet friendly lizards?!
If those legendary lizards before them had the guts to risk everything, then why wouldn’t they? And that seed of madness simply kept growing as they remembered the memories.
As they had drunk Jack’s blood, they had received HIS memories! Sure, he had given them the lizard ones’ he hadn’t used. But he had also added a little something extra: HOPE!
One after the other, they powerfully crossed the line.
“Hehe, let’s do this for our Lord AND Apples!”
“Three-Eyes said it well. For the Apples!”
“Weaklings? Sir, I don’t see any!”
They all left their base, one after the other, a flash of madness appearing in their eyes. Seeing this, Jack didn’t wait to lead them away, which incredibly shocked the spectators.
“Wait, where’s the 12th Legion going?!”
“Aren’t they gonna defend their base at all? How dumb!”
“Maybe they’re planning to beg to join another Legion instead?!”
Many couldn’t stop speculating, but as the camera followed them, they couldn’t help but gasp! What the hell was this?! Had they actually stopped for a break already?
Jack quickly led his legion…
“Three-Eyes, It’s your time to shine.”
“Understood, my lord! I’ll try my best!”
“Don’t try, just do. For Astral Projection, you…”
In a matter of seconds, he had explained the concept as lizardly simple as possible! The latter didn’t doubt Jack’s 101 magical lesson, instantly focusing!
Then, a few moments later…
A ghostly lizard spirit flew out?! While most Legions out there had their strongest fighting to establish dominance, the 12th Legion already had a magical scout going?!
Then, after a few minutes, he was already back, his tongue wagging as fast as a professional debater. “My Lord, here’s what I saw! There’s a base there, there, and lots of monsters!”
So that’s how it was, eh? Peering through the lizards’ memories, Jack quickly understood what the monsters were there for. One could slaughter them to obtain gear!
It was all a trinity, one having to find the perfect equilibrium between attacking, defending, and powering up. Anyone else would have tried to balance it all, but not Jack!
Instead, a demonic grin adorned his face.
“Alright, here’s what we’ll do….”
He quickly shared his plan: the 12th Legion going to work. But while they did, the other Legions had finally sorted their shit, their leaders all decided!
Countless lizards were assembled orderly…

There were so many different approaches to the same problem, and the spirits were running high. This was one hell of a show! Youngsters? They felt like veterans!
Yet, amidst the countless strategies, one definitely stood out. The 12th Legion was already failing! They were scattered and already running for their lives?!
They had tried to face monsters and had lamentably failed! Talk about ridiculous! The crowd and monsters laughed, but so did a certain white lizard.
Oh, this would be so much fun….
