Reborn As A Giant Scorpion: Evolution By Consumption Chapter 7

"Damn it, we still have to walk for a long time before we can see the Coiling Snake Pagoda," The black youth, Bill, growled.
At this time, if he had not come to this godforsaken place to look for the Coiling Snake Pagoda, he would have been able to enjoy a weekend with his girlfriend.
He could have a barbecue or watch a game on the field.
"Bill, can't you shut your mouth? Instead of complaining here, why don't you save your energy and hurry up? When we find the legendary ruins, we still have a lot of time. You can do whatever you want," The captain, Charles, who was walking in front, said.
Jack patted Bill's shoulder and said, "Buddy, you can't be so bad. Look at our two beauties. They didn't say anything. You're complaining here. Are you still a man?"
The white beauty, Diana, looked at Harden in front of her. He was holding a machete and was scouting the way.
That was what a man should be. Then, she glanced at Bill with disdain and said, "Coward, you won't be able to achieve great things in your lifetime."
Bill instantly became furious. "What did you say, you b*tch? Don't think that just because you're powerful, I'm afraid of you."
As he said that, he was about to go up and fight.
Charles, who came over, kicked his butt. "All right, all of you, be quiet. It is the Amazon rainforest, not a manor. If any of you want to die, I can give you a bullet to avoid implicating everyone."
Just as they were talking, a strong wind suddenly blew, making them unable to open their eyes.
In the dense forest above them, a vast shadow flashed above their heads. The immense shadow reflected on the ground.
The few of them were instantly stunned. What Charles said came true.

Jack instantly protected Johnson. The other mercenaries also reacted and raised their guns toward the sky. Such a vast shadow; it must be a big guy.
Everyone's nerves tensed up.
At this time, Alex, who had just arrived, hid in a tall bush and looked up at the dense forest.
His sharp gaze seemed to penetrate through layers of obstacles. He saw a vast toad hiding on one of the tree trunks.
It was as big as a small hill. It spat out a tongue as thick as a tree trunk and stared at the team below.
It was as if it was going to launch an attack at the next moment.
An ordinary toad would not be this big. Alex was excited. This toad was another wave of experience points, and it was a mutated species.
But now, the toad would not attack immediately.
Alex wanted to see the toad's combat strength. Only by knowing the enemy would it be easier to kill the enemy.
It was combat awareness.
On the other side, Charles' eyes eyes were like lightning as he constantly scanned the surroundings. His face was full of solemnity. "Everyone, be careful. Form a formation. Diana, Alice, you two protect Mr. Johnson. The rest of you follow me."
As soon as he finished speaking, a hundred-meter-long straw fell from the sky and attacked the back of a mercenary. It sucked tightly.
There were visible capillaries on it, like blood-red wool.
Everyone was scared and silly.
The mercenary cried out in fear, his hands pulling a stone tightly. Charles reacted and raised his gun to shoot.
Da Da da da!
The ink-green liquid kept flowing out.
"Chi-Chi!"
A strange roar came from above.
"Run!"
Charles roared and immediately pulled the mercenary up. At this time, his back was a bloody mess, and it had a bloody hole.
Even the ribs inside were visible.

Seeing this, Johnson hurriedly rushed forward. Charles and the two mercenaries stayed behind.
"Ah, save me!"
At the moment they were stunned, the terrifying white straw fell from the sky again and sucked the mercenary.
With a scream, he disappeared into the dense forest above.
Then there was a clatter.
.
Charles widened his eyes and saw a vast toad jump down. Its eyes were like lanterns, staring at them coldly and drooling all over the ground.
"Gulp!"
As mercenaries, they had experienced countless battles. They had never seen such a giant toad. Cold sweat was dripping down.
At this moment, they could even smell the stench of blood.
Run!
With a loud shout, they ran as fast as they could. The team did not even dare to turn around, afraid that the toad would kill them the moment they turned around.
The toad spat out its long tongue. Its pupils constricted. Just as it was about to catch up to these people, it suddenly felt a sense of danger.
Alex's two large pincers swung directly at its stomach, cutting through its armor. A wound of dozens of centimeters appeared, and blood trickled down.
The toad let out a miserable cry and spat out its poisonous tongue as if it was wrapping around Alex.
However, its speed was too slow, and he easily dodged it.
The two pincers quickly struck out and fiercely clamped in, cutting it into two halves. The movements of his legs did not stop, and he quickly climbed to the back of the toad. He immediately turned around, and with a poisonous sting, he directly pierced through the toad's head.
"Bang!"
The vast body fell to the ground.
Alex directly dragged the toad to a hidden bush and began to devour it.
About half an hour passed. This time, Alex received a total of 100 evolution points. As expected of a mutated species, the points from the toad directly caught up with more than a few caimans.
...
Johnson and the others who gathered in another place had not recovered from their shock. That was too terrifying.
The Amazon rainforest was indeed a paradise for animals.
A forbidden area for humans.
He looked at Charles in shock. "What was that thing just now?"
Until now, his heart was still trembling. It was true that he only had half a year left. To survive, he would give everything, but that did not mean that he was not afraid.
Everybody would be afraid from the bottom of their heart if they met an unknown and fearful creature.
Moreover, he had a hundred billion in assets, so he understood how precious life was.
Otherwise, he would not have risked his life to come to this place filled with fatal dangers to look for the coiling snake pagoda.
Charles panted heavily and said, "It's... It's a toad."
Looking at everyone's apparent disbelief, Charles repeatedly confirmed that if he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would not believe that there was such a giant toad in the world.
It was too terrifying.
At this time, Byron said, "The largest toad in the world can not grow so big unless there is a mutation. Something caused the cells in their bodies to divide rapidly, resulting in a mutation. And the one that has this effect..."
"The Coiling Snake Pagoda!"
A light flashed in Johnson's eyes, and his entire body trembled. "That's right, it's the Coiling Snake Pagoda. We are getting closer and closer."
"But there's another problem. The deeper we go, the more mutated animals we'll face. This time, it's the toad, but no one knows what the next one will be."
Professor Byron's words were like thunder, resounding fiercely in the depths of their souls.

My class [Death Knight] is just barely legal...
Ever since meeting his uncle, Arthur has pushed himself daily to achieve an arbitrary goal. He trained like nobody else did, longer than anybody else could. He neglected his personal relationships to pursue something he didn't even understand, in hindsight. When the time came for his class awakening ritual, he was ready. He was ready to receive a powerful starting class and to break free from his boring lifestyle. Well, you know what they say, "Be careful what you wish for, lest your wish be granted." Arthur was assigned the death knight class, which is just barely, technically, maybe legal. With it, he learns about what drove him to such simple minded ambition in the first place: his affinity. Now, he's faced with a dilemma: will he embrace it, or reject it? 'My class [Death Knight] is just barely legal' is a laid back story with occasional tension, that describes Arthur, a young man, exploring the world, the system and his own mental health as he pursues his ambitions. This story is the first serious fiction I ever wrote, so while criticism is definitely welcomed, keep it polite. I'm going to rewrite the first few chapters at some point, since they're not as good as my later ones, but I'm focusing on my current chapters first. I don't have time to do both yet, since I'm also in the middle of my exams. What to expect from this story: -Litrpg elements -A chaotic good aligned protagonist (that starts off as a neutral good protagonist) -(Hopefully) interesting characters. What not to expect from this story: -Grimdark elements -Harem -An enslaved protagonist. (I mention this due to the background of the mc's class) Release schedule: 1 chapter every other day, 2pm European time (14:00) Join the discord here: https://discord.gg/YHZFB4HMHD

Meaning: The End of the Starless Century
Magic was once a reality of everyday life, shaping the lives of the gifted and ungifted alike since the dawn of humanity. That all changed in the fires of World War I. Seeking to avoid catastrophe, humanity’s leaders enacted the Masquerade Order and segregated the magical community while also forming The Congregation to enforce the separation.

This held true for a little over a century, but things begin to change when three individuals intersect in the peaceful town of Ithaca, New York. Noelle Sellers, a newly minted policewoman searching for her place in the world. Levi Wright, a mage living in Ithaca who is far more than he lets on. Lorelei Himmel, a juvenile witch in hiding out of fear of what people would do to her, and what she may do to them. As forces slithering in the darkness emerge from the murky depths of the world, the timeless battle for magic and for the future itself begins once again.

The dream we share is simple: no traitors, no masters, only bugs united. Lucidity is a dreamer's sacrifice to reality, and our sacrifice is the vesperbane. A vile transformation through bat blood and black nerve, the vespertine arts grant a mantis power and control beyond this world. Only vesperbanes can give our grand dreams breath — but all vesperbanes are shadowed by an incorrigible potential to instead become oppressors and defectors. Three nymphs will undergo this metamorphosis, yet each holds another dream in their hearts: a scholar who must learn the secrets of the mind to bring the dead back to life; a servant who must atone for lives taken and find a cause unquestionable; and a rebel who must kill an angel and avenge a destroyed home. In this world, the mightiest wield the power to crush cities or spawn monstrous armies — here, there's always someone above you, and it's a long, arduous climb higher. But true power is wielded by those with the cunning and the connections to direct the mighty. In every shadow a conspiracy dwells, and these nymphs already have killers hounding them, spiders weaving webs around them. Anyone can climb to the top, anyone can tangle in these conspiracies — but what would you sacrifice along the way?
