The environment that had been mostly peaceful in that area of the forest has become chaotic. Strange humanoid creatures can be seen moving here and there. Something that no one could have predicted has taken place. A commander and many soldiers have disappeared.
They tracked down their scents and traces that led them to the area filled with mud and water. Their tracks stopped, not daring to step into the territory. As if an invisible wall was present there that stopped them from entering that area, Their eyes filled with anger stared at the area before turning and leaving.
ραΠdαsΝοvεl ƈοm "Could it be their work?" asked a lizardman soldier. They were speaking in Lizard Language.
The commander looked at him and said, "There would not have been so little damage if they were involved." He had his fist clenched when he talked about them.
"Why don't we check what has happened to our men?" asked the same soldier.
"We can't enter that territory; we must discuss it with the chief first. I don't like those thin cowards that only know to ambush; I would show them how pathetic they are the moment they fought me in the forest," he roared.
They soon left and went back to the tribe. A shadow could be seen looking at their movements. The next moment, it disappeared. A few moments later, a shadow could be seen flickering from one shadow to another.
After reaching far away, it stopped and asked, "What is the reason these lizardmen don't dare to enter the swamp? I forced that commander at that time, or he would have also not entered that area. What's inside it that forces them to stay away from that territory? Are they scared of some Terrifying Monster, or is there something else?"
The more he thought, the more confusing everything was. He went to the place where he had seen many lizardmen and found that the scenery was better now. He could see more than twenty lizardmen guarding the place from some meters away from the village; more guards guarded the area ahead.
If it had been some other opponent, this would have been an excellent move, but it was useless against Rishi; it neither stopped him from exploring the area nor hunting. To cover the area, the lizardmen split up a little away from each other; they were approximately 150 meters apart.
His lips curled up as he disappeared. He activated the first mode of his zone, 'Absolute Concealment.' He turned into the shadow of a bat and started approaching his target, a lizardman staying in the corner. He appeared behind him in his shadow bat form, but he activated the second mode as soon as he was just behind him.
A circular ring of black with a violet border appeared around him; the Lizardman noticed this change and released a roar. Each one was advised to do so, but he felt like no voice came out of his throat. The next moment, multiple chains appeared from below and bound him.
As he was thinking of struggling, a hand appeared from his back and held his head. Another appeared on his neck, holding a single-edged dagger that slit the opponent's throat. The next moment, a green fluid was released from his throat, and his body fell. Rishi extracted his eyes and dragonblood before moving on to the next target.
He had used suppression Runes so no one could smell the blood and get suspicious. After storing the body in Shadow Space, he moved to the next target near him and repeated the process. As he tried again and again, his actions became even smother; now, he also used 'Kiling Intent' to suppress the opponent.
It took him some time, but no lizardmen were left before long; suddenly, he thought of a plan. He brought their bodies near the swamp and tied them upside down using tree vines. He had chosen an area that was on the border of the swamp and was visible from the forest area.
Rishi didn't know, but he had accidentally caused something that could lead to chaos and destruction in the whole region. When the Lizardman priest heard about the incident, he was enraged and wanted to discuss this matter with them, but when he heard the recent news, he stood up from his big chair and ordered the others to follow him.
All forces were gathered, and a small army appeared. It had a tall and muscular Infantry unit at the front, led by two seven-foot tall lizardmen of Dark green color. Their entire bodies were covered in tough metallic armor, and behind them were strange, ferocious, three-meter-long monsters.
They were carrying strangely shorter, hunched-back lizardmen on their backs. These were of light red color; they were the famous cavalry unit. They stood there silently with their heads held high, carrying a spear in one hand and a shield in the other. Their muscular legs held tight to their mount.
Two five and a half-foot tall lizardmen were leading them. They were dark red. They wore leather Armor and feathered headbands on their heads; they were the commanders of this cavalry unit.
At last were the slim, five-meter-long female lizardmen. They were wearing leather armor. They carried longbows in their hands and long quivers on their backs. A six-meter-tall lizardman led their unit with long green hair tied into a ponytail.
Each Lizardman was kneeling when they saw an old, five-foot-tall, yellow-skinned lizardman walking, wearing a plain white robe. His body was painted with strange tattoos, and he wore strange pendants. On his head was a strange crown made up of feathers, and he strolled with his slightly slouched back, taking the support of a long staff with a strange skull of a reptilian on its top with many colorful feathers attached.
The gray-bearded Lizardman, with his face filled with wrinkles, started moving. His thin body looked as if he were malnourished and would blow up in a storm. Such a man was leading a strong Army of more than two hundred lizardmen warriors.
The forest suddenly became alive, and the beasts moved away from the area. Wherever the army walked, creatures shivered and escaped; no one dared confront them. Even the Epic Stage Beast had to hide themselves; such was the might of this army.
Lizardmen, known for fighting among each other while hunting alone, could now be seen working together. The person in front was the sole reason this race looked so united. The group approached the Depper region of the swamp and stayed there.
