12 Inevitable War (2/2)

Alyx after deciding to infiltrate both sides of the camp, before proceeding with the next step of Ax's plan, went to the body reconstruction plant in his travel pod. Each house given to newborn Aon has a personal travel pod. The distance between different facilities is astronomical and travel by foot is time consuming. Aons at lower ranks use these travel pods and portals to go from one place to another.

In an earlier meeting with Neo, Alyx learnt that small changes to the body can be freely made at the body reconstruction plant. Upon hearing that Ax came up with this bold plan to infiltrate the Lizardmen and Dragons. Changes like appearance and sex are the only things allowed for free and upgrading the body costs CP. According to Ax's plan the body remains the same but the appearance will be changed to fool them. Alyx changed his appearance into a Lizardman and it took just a few minutes for it to be completed.

'It feels like I'm wearing a costume. Do you think it will work?'

*Do you have any better idea.*

Alyx reached near to the surface and parked his travel pod in a desolate cave and started walking towards the Lizardmen site. After going through many narrow tunnels he was able to reach an underground lake with a settlement in its marshes.

”Hey which tribe do you belong to?” Alyx heard a shout just as he came out of the cave. He was shocked and got flustered for a moment on what to say. But Ax threw him a lifeline.

*Just tell him you are a lone Lizardman who got banished from his tribe for not willing to participate in the upcoming war.*

”I'm banished from my tribe for refusing to participate in the war and looking to join a new tribe.” Alyx answered the Lizardman coming towards him from afar.

'Just how unlucky I have to be to get caught unprepared. I wanted to gather some information before taking on a role which will make our infiltration smooth.'

*But your actions don't reflect any of that. You did not even try to hide or be subtle in you movements. You staggered in like it's your backyard*

'You should have warned me.' Alyx grit his teeth at Ax.

*Some idiot told me to keep quiet and learn while observing him*
