Chapter 946: Igniting an All-out War (1/2)

Ocean Heart!

Neon Radiance!

With his passive abilities in full swing, Krune unleashed a beam of light from his two palms. Each beam struck the gates of the first and second village, alerting the populace inside those villages due to the sudden increase in brightness.

In the first village, there were numerous huts made from the bones and leather of fishes the respective dwellers had killed. In the center of all those huts, situated within a hut made from the bones of a fish on the same size as the Sonic Radar, was the Monster Gecko King, frowning the moment it noticed the place brighten up.

While inside it, it noticed the source of light streaming from the second village, grunting in response. For the past few months, numerous incidents began to crop up one after another. Its soldiers were becoming injured as the bone trees grew in their feet.

Thus, a lot of its fighting populace had been incapacitated. Moreover, the bone trees were nurturing fewer fruits than usual for some reason, causing a massive food shortage, weakening them as a whole. Thanks to said food shortage, the second and third villages usually targeted their Monster Geckos, using their blood to water the bone trees.

This way, they managed to grow enough fruits to sustain themselves. Unsurprisingly, its village had also done the same to the other villages.

Though the number of fruits grown by the bone trees had recovered to the usual amount in the past month, they were still on edge. Plus, the deep-seated hatred between the different villages continued to cause numerous conflicts between them every day.

The villages first crossed their boundaries to steal the fruits of other villages to weaken them. With that, problems continued to increase with the passing of each day. To bring it under control, the Monster Gecko King from the first village had even sent envoys to the other villages in an effort to converse with their Kings and control the situation.

But unfortunately for that King, its envoys were killed before they even reached the respective villages. Not only that, but they completely disappeared.

The Monster Gecko King did have suspicions that there was someone foreign in the place that was inciting all the conflicts. After all, even before this fight had started, some of the Monster Geckos had gone missing every day.

On top of that, it also sensed the presence of the third party a couple of times. After all, it had lost two mutants by now. If not for it chancing upon a massive fruit that birthed another Mutant in their village, they wouldn't have any Mutants with them right now.

But even then, their village was considered the weakest at the moment. After all, they only had two elites, the King and a Mutant, that recently became one. As for the remaining villages, the second village was also in a similar situation. As for the three other villages, they had three elites each, a King and two Mutants.

With that power backing them up, they were beginning to encroach on the territory of the first two villages.

Right now, the moment the beam of light landed on the two villages, it was able to confirm the presence of the third party, immediately getting up from its seat as it left the village, sprinting at its maximum speed to find the third party as soon as possible.

Rallying up the others would take time, and it didn't wish to let go of this chance.

The ground thundered as the Monster Gecko King sprinted at its maximum speed, heading straight towards the source of the beam of light that had disappeared within three seconds. Using its thermal sight, it searched the entire place, soon noticing a warm figure standing almost one hundred meters away from it.

The figure was standing still as its body radiated a bit of light. Without any hesitation, the Monster Gecko King punched at it, sending its body flying. Though, it frowned immediately, noticing a splash of fluid the moment it sent the opponent flying, unable to feel any struggle from the other party.

The impact of its punch had shattered the opponent's chest, causing numerous cracks in its bones. At the moment it crashed into the ground, it failed to get up. It seemed to be dead at this point.

The glow had disappeared not long after its punch as the Monster Gecko King stopped, looking with its thermal sight that the opponent's body was warm, unlike the Monster Geckos. Though, it did possess a similar physique as the rest of them. The only thing different was the lack of a tail.

Coincidentally, right at this time, another Monster Gecko King arrived. It was the King of the second village. The moment it saw the warm figure that lied on the ground, crushed, it realized that something had happened.

The two Kings stared at each other in vigilance before the Monster Gecko King from the first village talked. Soon, the two conversed, attributing the entire conflict to the enemy it had killed just now. Eventually, the two Monster Gecko Kings came to a consensus, deciding to rally together and come to an agreement with the three other villages.
