《Ascension of the Nephilim 》Chapter 206: For a Drop of Blood
Advertisement
At the orders of the strongest Champion present, the lizardmen immediately began to open the large gate, which stood over fifty meters.
As the gates opened, the insides of the highly-walled fortress were revealed. The architecture and buildings inside were surprisingly similar to the houses and buildings that humans had.
"Quite extravagant. It looks like this place holds a lot of strong ores and stones." Kyros observed. Some of the stones used to make the houses were so strong that not even a captain-level fighter could break them.
"It seems that this place has an abundance of resources from herbs, to rocks, to ores." Kyros was amazed at how abundant the rocks were.
Several powerful forces and magic energy erupted as several Champions appeared flying in the sky while others were leaping from the low ground and reached the top of the wall.
A total of seven Champions appeared.
They watched as Gojirrah moved inside the large gates.
As Gojirrah moved, he could not help but glance at the direction of a certain Champion.
Kyros took a quick peek at the girl using his link with Gojirrah. The vision of Gojirrah became Kyros's vision.
"Woah! She is pretty!" Kyros exclaimed.
The Champion Princess was among the champions present. She had a human-like face that had scales near her hair. Her hair was bright green, and she wore a bright green armor that seemed to have mixed with her scales. It was difficult to tell which was her scale and which was her armor. Her hair looked like long spikes that cascaded down to her back. Her entrancing figure was clearly seen, and despite her lizard-like features, even Kyros agreed that her beauty was on par with the most beautiful elven race he had seen in his past life.
The Champion held a long lance, and Kyros could tell that she was a lancer class.

"A Strike Lancer! What an interesting way to utilize her beauty." Kyros chuckled.
"Exiled Lizard of disgraceful lineage. Report." A lizard that was a head taller than Gojirrah jumped down and landed near Gojirrah.
Gojirrah was about to take a step forward when the lizard frowned.
"Stay where you are, exile. I wish not to dirty my body with your lineage." The lizard was insulted.
Gojirrah was about to speak... but then he heard the strange comments of Kyros.
"Hmm.... He will do. Tell me, Gojirrah, do you want to smack this guy in the face?"
"Erm... What does..."
"Yes or no."
"Ye-yes."
"Good. Let the hate flow in you..." Kyros had a malicious sneer. If his face were not hidden from the lizards, they would have noticed the odd expression of Kyros.
Kyros then began to give the champion the instructions.
"Erm... Champion... The- The report is very confidential and dangerous to be heard to other ears. It involves... dragons!"
"Dragons!" The nearby lizards jumped or zoomed closer upon hearing the words.
"Call Commander Longneck!" One of the Champion lizard spellcaster ordered.
"Seriously... Commander Longneck?!" Kyros sighed at the stupid name.
"There will be no need! I will report to Commander Longneck! You! Champion Lizard! Tell me!" The arrogant Champion ordered Gojirrah.
"Alright. Do it." Kyros ordered.
"But..."
"Trust me. And it's an order."
"..." Gojirrah wanted to cry, but he could not refuse his lord.
"Champion Tail 1! Look at my right arm!" Gojirrah raised his right arm as high as he could.
"???" The nearby champions were confused.
"I don't understand."
"Allow me to take a few steps closer to show you," Gojirrah added and moved closer, and he kept his arm raised.

Tail 1 took a closer look and even moved closer to see any peculiarities in the arm of Gojirrah.
Gojirrah began to open and close his claw arms.
Tail 1 gazed up and frowned.
"I don't see any-"
SMASH!
While the champion was busy looking up, Gojirrah's tail whipped and smacked the groin area of Tail 1. The whipping tail struck the area where the lizardman's reproductive organs were. Just like humans, the lizardmen had their organs in the groin area.
Tail 1 howled as he bowed down from the pain at the nut-cracking attack. All of his descendants were lost at that surprise attack.
But then, Gojirrah's arms grappled the head of Tail 1, and consecutive knee strikes resounded.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
Tail 1's face smashed on Gojirrah's relentless attack.
"YOU TRAITOR! HOW DARE YOU SELL US OUT TO THE HUMANS!" Gojirrah screamed as he constantly slammed his face onto the face of the Champion.
The pouting, serpentine mouth of Tail 1 was being crushed and deformed from the non-stop attacks.
"THIS! IS! FOR! MY! MEN! THAT! YOU! SAC-! RI-! FICED!"
Blood and the lizard teeth of Tail 1 could be seen flying off all over the place.
The sudden attack was so shocking that the nearby Champions didn't know what to do.
"Stop!" One of the Champions finally managed to voice out.
STAB!
But Gojirrah was faster. He had received the blessing of the Coven, and his stats were now faster. With great speed, he drew his sword and stabbed it on the quivering tail of Tail 1, and nailed it to the ground.
Tail 1 had fallen unconscious from the continuous attack.
"Lizardkin! Hear me! This Champion has betrayed us! The Golems have allied with humans! The allure of a dragonic lineage caused him to betray our kind! I am an exile! But regardless of my hatred for a lizard kingdom, I am still of the Lizard race, and I would never sacrifice my kind for personal gain!" Gojirrah declared as he drew out a smaller blade and made a small wound on his arm.
The Commander had arrived. It was a large lizard with strange wings that made him look similar to a dragon. He was flying with great speed and rushed to kill Gojirrah.
But with Kyros's instructions, Gojirrah had already moved to the next step. He dropped his blood towards the blood of Tail 1 that was dripping out from the wounded tail.
The moment his blood touched Tail 1's blood, a strange reaction began to occur.
The flying Commander stopped and halted his slice. He was already above Gojirrah. A second sooner and Gojirrah would have been dead.
His eyes as fixed on the pool of blood. A strange occurrence was happening. Never before in all his witnessed Blood Test did he witness such an odd peculiarity.
The drop of blood that Gojirrah allowed to fall was devouring the blood of Tail 1.
It wasn't only the Commander, but the nearby Champions noticed it too.
"What...?" The beautiful princess also watched the strange reaction.
"I risked my life to steal this. This was the agreed price that the humans were to pay Tail 1. For the lives of the lizard race, he would receive... a Blood of a Dragon!" Gojirrah revealed.
"What?!"
"See the proof! You all have seen my bloodline! But now, after devouring Tail 1's supposed prize, my blood can devour the weaker lizard lineage! This Tail 1 sold us out! All our lives, for a drop of blood!" Gojirrah shouted with great hatred as he smashed his foot down on Tail 1.
