RE:BORN Zombie

Chapter 72 Lizard Men Settlement



“System identify those monsters”

[Elite Lizard Man Level 80]

[Elite Lizard Man Level 85]

‘Good stuff. These guys will make for better soldiers than the weaker ones.’ Victor said in his mind as he sighted the new lizard men.

The elite lizard men quickly moved to try and support the others that were held by the humans, but what Victor thought was a show of care or something actually wasn’t. As the elite lizard men picked the others up, they broke a spear on each of the lizard men backs, probably as punishment. Victor could immediately see why they were the elites, ass there was hierarchy in this lizard men society. He also thought to follow them in case there was some kind of lizard men settlement close, but that would be unnecessary, as if he raised one, it would be able to point him in the direction if the village exists.

‘Seeing as this is a cave dungeon, I doubt there’ll be any such village though.’

What Victor thought of doing would immediately fail, and he would be left with the option to kill them, as he had been found out. The lizard men sure were alert, and maybe it was because they were focused on the fight before, they didn’t notice him hiding there.

One thing Victor had not worried about till now was the fact that his presence was too present sometimes. When he met a human, they would thing he was actually a low level human, which he was, but he was obviously stronger due to the special conditions surrounding him. It seemed like the humans weren’t as perceptive as monsters, but this had made Victor become conscious of this fact. If he was to meet a human with some sort of skill that allowed them to be more perceptive, they would see his true self. If he was in disguise then, it would blow his cover instantly.

One of the elite lizard man maybe out of some type of instantaneous reaction threw its spear straight at Victor, and surely, their weapon was different from the other lizard men as its spear pierced through the boulder that was Victor stood behind, aiming for his chest. Victor evaded the spear, but then he didn’t let the spear to go uncollected, so without drawing it out of the boulder, he directly placed it in his inventory.

The lizard men would be quite perplexed how the spear disappeared without anybody touching it, they were sure it was because of Victor, the enemy before them. Victor wasn’t going to waste time with these lizards, as he called them for short, so using his teleportation skill, he appeared in their midst an using another skill negative burst, he instantly killed all the lizard men except for the one that threw the spear.

‘Ah, good. Let’s use this as the selection criteria for the last one to join my legion.’ Victor said in his mind just before a message appeared before his eyes.

“Oh yeah, I can’t raise the elite lizard men and add them to my legion. The level difference is still high… Crap.”

Victor had almost forgotten about the restriction, so now he had to rely on the lower lizard men to fill his legion. Since there were elite lizard men, he could only rely on the evolution of the lower ones into the elite. With that, he picked at random one body of the normal lizard men and placed it aside. He didn’t know which one had the highest level he could bring back, so he just left it to lady luck.

Victor got to eating the lizard men before him to get their evolution material, and he didn’t leave the human’s out of it. When he was done, he had accumulated quite the amount of evolution material. He thought of leaving the human evolution material so that he would use it on Larry, he encountered Arch humans sometime ago, so he was hoping to make Larry one. He himself didn’t need it, so there was no need to turn himself into one.

Since he could always get the human material… No, Victor thought to not be greedy and just let Larry have this one. There would be plenty of humans later that will have even stronger abilities that would give him better skills. He was able to benefit well from the other cave because the people that were sent there were elites with strong abilities. As for this guys, he didn’t know what their abilities were, but apart from their leader who had the highest level, Victor didn’t see anything special in the others.

When he was done, he stood up and focused on the lizard man he set aside. With his will, he activated his skill, but then-

‘Wait, system, what is the limit where I can’t raise monsters and add them to my legion?’ Victor asked mentally while suspecting something.

[The limit is 50 levels above yourself]

“…” Victor was speechless, almost.

“Can’t believe I forgot and thought it was 40. Can’t rewrite my mistakes now, those guys are already in my system as evolution material. I’ll have to find another group then.” Victor said.

To do so, he would still need the guy before him, so he still went on and raised him. After he did that, he made the lizard man who was now part of his legion to direct him to their settlement. Maybe it was because their connection an bond wasn’t strong like when he names them, the instructions and questions he could direct towards the lizard man was little and simple, anything complex and it wouldn’t understand.

They moved through the cave, through the more narrow and normal sized tunnels as they made their way to the lizard man settlement. Unlike the previous cave where he could even jumped several metres into the air and still not meet the ceiling, this floor’s cave only had so much of such places that were that spacious. After a couple minutes, they got to the settlement, and from where they entered from, it was from a hole in the wall at about 10 metres above the floor.

The place looked like something that was dug out of instead of a natural landscape. The place was large, as it stretched out about the size of a football field, and below were various lizard men that covered the entire place. If Victor was to guess the number, he would say they were nothing less then a hundred of them down there.

There was no need to even ask the system to identify the monsters below, as he would just be blasted with the information. From what he saw earlier, Victor knew how to differentiate the elites from the normal ones. All he saw down there was a field full of experience points lingering around waiting to be taken. When he was done, he would eat anyone that was left, there was no need to hold back here.

‘Before I go down there, let’s check my status screen first.’ He levelled up when he killed the lizard men earlier, which meant he level 39 now.

‘That’s a lot of skills alright.’

From the humans before, Victor was able to acquire some wealth in cash and upped his coins to 300 after getting 220 from them. The plan was to invest in some skills that would help take out enemies fast, and for that, there was one skill he wanted to test the most.

Victor immediately invested in the skill terror, and brought it to level 3, and the effects were exactly what he wanted them to be.

..

[Terror]

Induce fear in the target and can be lethal if the target possesses a weak mind that can be easily broken.

Level: 3

..

What Victor wasn’t sure of was whether the skill would also collaborate well with his other skill which he wanted to test, but then the only way to find out was to try it himself.
