Chapter 12 - Acid Swamp

The frogs unleashed a barrage of acid towards Lizarius, who dodged effortlessly, ascending higher into the air. There are so many of them, he thought, frustration creeping into his voice.

He charged his body with lightning, gathering the energy on his horn. Then, he unleashed the concentrated bolt towards the swamp.

The lightning struck with a deafening crack, and most of the frogs leaped from the water in a panic.

Those that were too slow were struck by the powerful electric jolt and instantly lost consciousness, floating lifelessly on the surface.

The frogs that had escaped the lightning strike continued their acid barrage. These bastards! Lizarius thought.

I can't get closer because of the acid spit.

Using a sound wave attack might attract the attention of other nearby beasts. He flapped his wings downwards, sending multiple wind slashes tearing through the air towards the frogs.

The wind slashes cut through the air with deadly precision, killing multiple frogs.

That works! Lizarius thought, a surge of satisfaction filling him.

He continued sending wind slashes, systematically striking the swamp and eliminating the unconscious frogs.

After a while of relentless wind slashes, the swamp fell silent. Lizarius descended, landing beside the edge of the murky water. He approached the corpse of a frog, its skin glistening with the residue of its own acid.

He bit down, tearing into the flesh and starting to devour the creature. When he finished, the system chimed: You have gained 200 evolution points and 3 Acid Frog genes.

"System," Lizarius commanded, "fuse genes."

Lizarius felt a burning sensation in his mouth. Fusion complete, the system announced. Lizarius's saliva is now acidic.

A new hunger gripped him. Lizarius approached another frog corpse, biting down.

The meat dissolves in my mouth! he realized. Now I can eat even more!

He devoured every frog corpse he could find, even venturing into the swamp to consume those that had fallen within.

After some time, he had finished his gruesome feast. Gain 23,000 points and 250 Acid frog genes, the system announced.

Turning invisible, Lizarius spread his wings and soared out of the swamp, rising into the sky. "System," he called, "how many points do I have now?"

You have 40,200 evolution points and 250 Acid Frog genes, the system replied.

I have never gotten so many points before, Lizarius thought
