Chapter 456 - 12th Legion? HUNT!
Chapter 456: 12th Legion? HUNT!
In the Lizardgeddon…
Many silhouettes could be seen running around. And as they did, spectators out there couldn’t help but stare in shock: what the hell were they doing?!
The 11th and 2nd Legion fight had barely ended when the 12th Legion showed up akin to rats, greedily circling the corpses. Seeing this, countless frowned.
“Now that the fight’s over, they show up?!”
“What evil deeds are they planning?”
“Desecrate, loot, or both?!”
That’s when it started. The 12th Legion seemingly went mad. One after the other, they approached what little remained of the corpses and grabbed them whole?!
The shocking scene kept going, none exempted! Full corpse? Grabbed! Severed limb? Grabbed! Hell, some were even scooping up some remnant Lizardmen entrails!
As for the 12th Legion themselves…
“T-This, do we really have to do this?!” A few shivered as their claws dug into the flesh. But then they remembered their glorious ideals. They’d do it for the Apples!
They got to work, carrying as much blood and gore as they could with them, as if nightmarish loot goblins. As for their destination? It was a very fun one.
Yet, not all of the 12th Legion was on graveyard duty. Even now, many of them were still rushing all over the place with monsters on their tails!
“Gaaaachhhhaaaa!”
“What the hell is this?! Whatever, ruunnn!”
Strange creature noises and visibly terrified lizards! They were putting the sprinting endurance training Jack had put them through to good use, zooming like rockets!
And on their passage, lots of heads kept turning in shock.
“Wait, what are those fools doing, running like that?!”
“Who knows, and who cares! Just let them die…”
“Wait, the way they’re running. Oh fuck!”
At this moment, many scouts had the same reaction. They couldn’t bloody believe their eyes as the 12th Legion members just “happened” to run toward their bases!
Except it was no coincidence; they knew precisely where to go thanks to a certain three-eyed lizard scouting the way for them! And soon enough, a new Apocalypse began.
“Attack! We’re getting Attacked!”
“Brother, defend our crystal at all costs!”
“Kill the invaders! Kill the… wait, monsters?!”
They had expected other Legions to attack them, but this?! How freaking perverse! They couldn’t believe any lizard out there would be THAT crazy!
Most cursed their bad luck, all but one Legion…

“Brethren, what are we?”
“Eternal! Eternal! Eternal!”
“Yes! Now, let’s show those beasts!”
As many went wild with worry as they mobilized to defend their base, the 9th Legion actually welcomed it! To them who had built a fortress, this much was nothing!
In fact, there was another peculiar Legion out there too…
The fifth legion was all about hunting! In fact, they were one of the first to get out there. Instead of fighting for leadership, they had simply elected the best hunter among them.
But as they braved the Wildlands, their faces couldn’t help but show an odd expression. “Weren’t there supposed to be monsters? What happened to them?”
Their entire strategy was based around this! What were hunters supposed to do without monsters?! Their hearts aggrieved, they had done the only thing they knew: HUNT!
“Look, those traces are fresh!”
“It seems someone’s been very naughty!”
“They’re all pulling the monsters toward….?!?”
Was someone bringing monsters to their base? Not on their watch! In a matter of minutes, they were already done tracking the few 12th Legion members near them!
One of them had been running for his life when… JUMP! Out of nowhere, bloodthirsty lizards appeared, their ambush perfect! And they acted even faster!
BONK! CRASH!
First, they elbowed the lizard. Then, they hunted the crap of the monster! It wasn’t even a fight; it was a one-sided slaughter! And, as soon as the monster fell, so did an item.
[Ding! Successfully Hunted a Jabberwock!]
[Obtained Glowing Claw of Darkness!]
[Use Very Carefully!]
“Hehe, hunt the monsters, then hunt the lizards!” Their grins couldn’t have been eviler! And as they “gently” awoke their prisoner with stabs, the latter almost had a heart attack.
Scary, so damn scary!
Just looking at their faces made the poor 12th Legion lizard want to wake from this nightmare. And then there was the pain coursing through his entire body crazily!
The poor lizard shook even more as they started interrogating…
“What Legion? Where’s your base?”
“Fifth Leg— ARGGG!”
“Wrong Answer!”
What kind of bad luck was this?! There were 12 Legions, and he had just picked the wrong one. As for the effect of that blunder, LOTS of pain!
STAB!
STAB! STAB!
STAB! STAB! STAB!
What started as light stabbing quickly increased in pace and intensity! By now, the poor lizard was already a bloody mess in their hands, one about to go insane.
Every instant, it wanted to scream the answer, anything for this pain to end, and yet it still resisted somehow. If anyone could realize their dream, it was HIM!
As his vision turned bloody, he gave a pained smile.
“Red, red just like apples, hehe…”
Perhaps in another life, he’d reincarnate into a peaceful apple-farming lizard. No fight, no worries, eating apples from morning to night, and napping ever so peacefully.
This dream was stronger than any torture! Or even better, maybe there would be huge pumpkins? Even he didn’t know why, but he couldn’t help but smile as that thought came.
Yet, that smile was quickly shattered completely.
“One tough cookie, ain’t you?”
“But you clearly forgot who we are!”
“Everyone, the trail’s fresh, follow it!”
They didn’t need the lizard in the first place. It would take more time, but as ones who had received seasoned hunter memories, they’d just find the way themselves!
Hearing this, a certain prisoner suddenly paled. Oh god, no! Right now, their base was completely defenseless with all their members running around! This was BAD!
Seeing his face, a couple of 5th Legion members cackled:
“Hehe, now that’s a good expression!”
They quickly cleared any would-be enemy around their base and then went on a crusade! The bastards who had schemed against them would pay with their lives!
And soon enough, the 12th Legion’s base was finally in sight! As the poor prisoner saw it, he seemingly lost his soul, trembling. Except, so did the invaders?!
“What the fuck is this?!”
Madness…
