Chapter 373 Creatures Of Swamp
The sudden change in the environment didn’t escape Rishi’s eyes. He told Kajal that he would return soon and started exploring the area around him. It was not hard to find the Lizardman Army; they were not concealing their presence. When he looked at their full strength, even he had to admit they were a force to be reckoned with. His eyes fell on the old man standing with a slightly reclined back.
“This infantry looks good; they have strong fighters, and each has its complete armor. Due to their lack of need to have weapons, it makes it easier to make full-body armor accessible for all. They have strong defenses and are quite capable of offense as well,” he observed.
“Their cavalry looks like it’s their strongest force. These Raptors look terrifying. Facing them with a lizardman on their back would be challenging. These lizardmen riding them also look very strong and experienced. They look like they have been gifted with the ability to tame and ride beasts.”
“The Archer unit made up of female Archers appears to be a defensive unit with the main goal of defending their village; they look decent from far. Only time will tell how strong and well-trained they are.”
Nothing happened for a while, but soon strange sounds appeared from the swamps. The air there started moving faster. It hit the Lizardman army as if warning them not to take any steps forward. Soon multiple ripples appeared in the Swamp, and a thin lizardman appeared.
The only difference was that they looked slim and wore strange masks. Their bodies were brown. They held bamboo pipes near their mouths, aiming them at the opponents. Soon more revealed themselves, and more than a hundred of these strange lizardmen appeared.
They had long hair, and their body structure made them look like females; even while standing in front of a whole army, none of them showed a trace of fear.
“What are those? Are they different types of lizardmen? They have many different characteristics. Could they be the reason why the lizardmen of the forest think twice before entering the Swamp?
“They have many more females than the forest lizardman, and they look to be their main force. Don’t tell me they have a different sex ratio as well.”
The more he saw them, the more he was surprised. He was about to observe more when he felt the wind moving faster.
‘Whoosh’
The wind blew faster, and a flying creature appeared, tearing through the clouds. It was a giant, red-colored creature with a dragon-like mouth. It was three meters long with a wingspan of six meters. It had bat-like wings and two limbs with long, sharp talons attached to them. A long tail could be seen with an Arrowhead end.
“A wyvern, what is it doing here? Is it lost, or is there another reason for it to be here?” Suddenly, a weird thought came into his mind: “Don’t tell me that they have tamed even wyverns now.” He looked at the scene and could not understand what a wyvern was doing there.
It released a roar that instilled fear in the lizardman army. As it came close, a strange, small lizard could be seen sitting on its back. It was blue, different from a normal lizardman, and wearing a mask of wood and feathers.
“How could it be? How can these creatures tame a wyvern? It would be terrifying if there were more of those. Why are the Lizzarman soldiers so afraid of them? Have they fought before? Is it the main force of the Swamp Lizardman tribe?”
‘Swish,’ ‘swish’
Soon, multiple similar creatures appeared, which then lined up in a triangular formation. There were twenty of them, way fewer than their opponents. But their mere presence caused the lizardman soldiers to shiver; they looked like the cavalry unity of the opponent.
“This is ridiculous, twenty wyvern riders. Where did they find so many wyverns? Can I also get wyverns? Wouldn’t it be much better if I got some raptors too? It looks like I would need to fight against them eventually to gather the information.”
“If by chance, I could get them before leaving this Secret Realm, I could make millions. Wyverns are already very popular, but there are fewer of them available. The ones that have them mainly sell them to customers who buy them in batches.
“If I keep doing this, I may create a successful company that provides suitable mounts,” he smiled.
Soon, multiple slim Lizardmen appeared. They were all moving together. They wore metallic armor and had long, sharp spears. They appeared soon and stood at the front, facing their opponents. The way both sides looked at each other told me they didn’t like each other.𝒏𝑜𝓋𝑬𝐋𝗇𝔢xt.𝒸𝗈𝔪
Even after both armies had gathered, No one made a move. The priest had not moved from his place as if waiting for someone. This made Rishi wonder who he was waiting for. Soon his doubts cleared as the lizardman of the Swamp moved to the side. The water moved back from that area, and soon a thin, fragile lizardman could be seen walking, holding a wooden staff.
He kept moving, only stopping before the priest of the Saurus Tribe. He wore a plain dress on the bottom, while his upper body, which had strange tattoos, was fully revealed. He was wearing a wooden mask with feathers at the top. Its light blue eyes were revealed behind the mask. It had long white hair tied in a ponytail, and from its body structure, it looked to be female.
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm The forest priest created a chair out of plants and sat on it. The priest of the Swamp also created a big water bubble and sat on it. Their eyes facing each other, they remained quiet for some time as if ignoring the conversation. Soon they started conversing in a language foreign to him.
From their conversation, Rishi could guess that they both had a history. The forester pointed his fingers at the Swamp and started making loud sounds. As if it were complaining that the Swamp Lizardman had attacked their people and killed them.
The swamp priest listened to him before stopping him and explaining that they had nothing to do with it. They kept arguing with each other for a long time. At last, the forest priest offered her some precious treasures and gave her permission to enter the Swamp for a month.
He then ordered his men to search around and find the person who dared to attack their tribe. Rishi looked at things from afar. When he looked at them entering the Swamp to look for him, A smile appeared in his face. He now also knew about the conflict between both tribes and was thinking about increasing the conflict further.
