Death God: Unrivaled in sharpness, the greatest captain of all time!

"Rumble..."

The scorching flames struck the earth, instantly igniting a raging inferno that engulfed the giant python's body, scorching it.

"Ahhhhhhhhh!!!"

A terrifying scream emanated from the flames, emanating from the giant python.

"Wow~"

The giant python struggled violently for a moment, then extinguished the flames that were coiling around it. It then emerged from the soil and wandered off into the distance.

"Hmph, how dare you ambush me? You're asking for death!"

Chiya Kuchiki snorted coldly, then stomped his right foot on the ground, instantly disappearing from his original spot. The next moment, he appeared in front of the giant python, raised his katana, and slashed down fiercely.

"Sizzle!"

191. Escape from the Forest

The incredibly sharp samurai sword sliced ​​through the air, slashing at the giant python's head and cutting it in half at the waist.

"Rumble..."

The python's head separated from its body and then fell into the swamp, churning the mud into a pulp.

Chiya Kuchiki didn't even glance at the dead giant python before turning around and continuing deeper into the forest.

In the swamp, many lizardmen were fleeing frantically, as if they had encountered something terrifying. Moreover, many more were running with all their might towards the outside, trying to escape the forest, because within their sight, a human riding a white horse was slowly approaching them.

This human was clad in armor, had a burly build, bronze skin, and exuded a powerful aura that inspired awe.

Behind this human was a cavalry force of about a hundred men, all clad in armor and wielding steel swords. Each of them exuded a ruthless and decisive aura, their eyes gleaming with a cold, icy light.

"The Killing Legion! Damn it, 547, how did we run into these guys!" A lizardman was stunned when he saw the human man riding the white horse, and then said with a look of horror.

The lizard people do not have close ties with the human world, and they have been at war with humans for many years.

Therefore, it's normal for these lizardmen to know some human knights.

This cavalry unit is none other than the Killing Legion, the cavalry legion of the Heavenly Dragon Empire!

This cavalry legion has a total of more than 10,000 men. In addition, a large number of elite troops are closely following behind the Killing Legion.

These elite troops were mostly ordinary militiamen, and their sheer number made them appear quite formidable.

The Killing Legion is the most powerful elite force under the Emperor's command. Their average strength is comparable to that of a third-level knight, and their equipment is even better, so their combat power is quite considerable.

"Roar!!"

A leopard-like lizardman charged forward, then raised its claws and viciously slashed at the knight riding the white horse.

The knight remained expressionless, a cold smile playing on his lips. With a flick of his wrist, a black short sword suddenly appeared and slashed across the leopard-like lizardman's neck.

Blood splattered, and the leopard-like lizardman instantly collapsed to the ground.

Every member of the Killing Legion is a warrior forged in battle, with an unwavering fighting spirit and fierce skill in combat.

"kill!"

The knight on horseback suddenly swung his sword, commanding the knights behind him to charge forward.

The knights of the Killing Legion did not hesitate to raise their weapons and charge at the routed lizardmen.

This was a one-sided massacre. The killing legion easily slaughtered the lizardmen and wiped out the surrounding lizardmen without lifting a finger, leaving only a small number of lizardmen to flee in panic.

At this moment, Chiya Kuchiki had already dealt with the giant python that had ambushed him, and then (bccb) quickly walked over to check on the other wounded lizardmen and the giant python's corpse.

"Well, that's interesting."

Chiya Kuchiki carefully examined the giant python's corpse. He noticed a scale on the python's body. This scale was silvery-white with strange patterns on it, resembling some kind of writing, and it also had a faint fluorescence, making it look rather unusual.

"Could it be..."

Chiyo Kuchiki's heart stirred, and he immediately squatted down, preparing to examine the scale carefully. He intended to study it.

"hiss~"

Just then, the injured giant python reappeared. Its pair of bulbous green eyes stared at Chiya Kuchiki, then let out a sinister hiss before crawling towards him.

"court death!"

Chiyo Kuchiki's gaze turned icy cold. He let out a cold shout, raised his right arm, and a dazzling golden sword beam shot out instantly, piercing through the giant python's vital spot.

Then the giant python froze on the spot, its eyes wide open in resentment, dying with its eyes wide open.

"Phew, I finally figured it out. This lizardman must be an alien among lizardmen. They can move quickly in the swamp, and their defense and regeneration are also very strong. Moreover, lizardmen are highly poisonous; one bite is enough to kill them."

Chiya Kuchiki nodded slightly. He had just finished examining the lizardman's corpse and knew exactly what the lizardman was.

These lizardmen are a type of lizardman called the Venomous Lizardman. They can move freely in the swamp and possess extremely potent venom. If bitten, even a mage with the strength of a magician will not survive for long, and even a grandmaster will die from the poison.

192. Fighting based on instinct

Of course, the lizardmen's weakness is their low intelligence; they only fight based on instinct.

The leader of the lizardmen, and also the king of the lizardman race—the Venomous Lizardman, who is also the giant python that just ambushed Chiyo Kuchiki.

Although the venomous lizardmen are only at the fifth rank, they have mastered many strange secret techniques and magical beast skills, making them more powerful than ordinary sixth-rank mages.

Moreover, the lizardmen are extremely ferocious, tyrannical, bloodthirsty, and warlike.

The hatred between the lizardmen and humans has a long history, and several small-scale wars have broken out, resulting in extremely heavy casualties on both sides.

The lizardmen possess exceptional fighting prowess; they are born for war and will fight to the death. Therefore, even with overwhelming human superiority, the lizardmen have been unable to be completely eradicated.

After examining the giant python's memories and discovering information about this highly venomous lizardman, Chiya Kuchiki immediately realized that the lizardman was a troublesome creature, and that killing it would likely come at a considerable cost.

"Roar!"

Just then, another highly venomous lizardman rushed over. This venomous lizardman was quite bold, actually jumping directly to Chiyo Kuchiki's side and opening its huge mouth to bite him.

"Get out of my way!" Chiyo Kuchiki frowned slightly and shouted coldly.

The next second, the giant lizardman's head suddenly exploded, and crimson blood sprayed all over Chiya Kuchiki's face.

"This guy is really stupid. No wonder he's at the top of the food chain." Chiya Kuchiki shook her head.

While the lizardmen are formidable fighters, fearless of any attack, and possess incredibly high defense, their reaction time is far too slow, making them unable to evade enemy attacks. Such enemies are destined to be hunted and have no chance of developing into truly powerful creatures.

Once the lizardmen evolve into powerful ferocious beasts, their combat power will undoubtedly be even more terrifying.

The flesh of the lizardmen is very delicious, especially their hearts.

The Killing Legion searched the entire valley but found no treasure or wealth.

But Chiyo Kuchiki made a discovery: he found a palm-sized crystal bottle in a stone cave deep in the valley.

"what?"

Chiya Kuchiki examined the crystal bottle and discovered a drop of bluish liquid inside. This liquid gave off a very dangerous feeling, as if it could kill.

"It seems this thing caused the annihilation of the lizardmen, making them afraid to set foot in this valley," Chiyo Kuchiki murmured.

At this point, he finally realized where he was.

The area is rich in fire element and has a large number of fire-type magical beasts, which is why the lizardmen built their city here.

However, there are also many powerful magical beasts here, and the lizardmen generally do not stray too far from Katakuri.

Chiya Kuchiki guessed that the lizardmen must have discovered this place and then sent an exploration ship to investigate.

However, they were killed by the strongest monsters, which led to this invasion.

· ··Requesting flowers·· ·

"This thing...it might be useful, perhaps even to me!"

Chiyo Kuchiki looked at the crystal bottle in his hand, pondered for a moment, and then put the crystal bottle away.

He didn't know why he had developed such a strong interest.

"Hmm?" Suddenly, Chiyo Kuchiki noticed a pile of scattered bone powder next to him. He frowned slightly: "What is this? Could it be left behind when the venomous lizardman ate the giant python?"

He stepped forward and used his dagger to pick up some of the ashes.

... .... ......

The ashes were very viscous, had a faint fishy odor, were highly corrosive, and contained a trace of toxins.

Chiyo Kuchiki sniffed carefully, and his expression immediately turned serious. He could smell the stench of decay.

Clearly, the lizardman had been dead for a long time, but the smell of decay had not yet dissipated.

This indicates that the reptilians here have been dying recently.

"Could it be that those lizardmen encountered danger while mining?"

Chiyo Kuchiki secretly guessed, but he didn't believe it was true.

"Boom!"

Just then, a deafening explosion rang out.

"Oh no! Someone has broken the seal and angered those powerful demons..." Kuchiki Chiya's pupils suddenly contracted. He hurriedly turned his head and saw hundreds of lizardmen fighting against two teams.

They were two ancient-looking groups, one of which was led by a burly man with dark skin, wearing a bull helmet, and with bulging muscles.
