With a crisp sound, the large lizard’s head that Jason had bitten off was directly chewed to pieces in that sharp mouth. It was like an unseeded sweet melon. The outer skin was crisp, the flesh was sweet, but inside it was a bit sour. But the taste was not bad at all. More importantly, there was a prompt about satiety in front of him. [You have devoured part of the monster lizard!] [Physical Strength, energy, and injuries have greatly recovered!] "Everyone, fall back!" He spoke word by word. Esther and two mobile squad members retreated without hesitation. The situation with the transformed large lizard had informed them that the battlefield in front of them was definitely not something they could intervene in, even being onlookers would be a hindrance. Given this premise, Esther and the two mobile squad members naturally did not insist. The footsteps receded. The anthropomorphic large lizard paid them no mind at all. It was intently watching the powerful creature of its own kind in front of it. In its heart, confusion grew even more. Why would such a powerful creature of its own kind protect those insect-like beings? "Why protect those humans?" The voice of the large lizard rumbled from its throat. "You, you are just food!" Jason swallowed the saliva that kept secreting and once again activated the Mist Concealment secret technique. A mist with a radius of 45 meters instantly filled the entire passage, obscuring the figures of both parties. The large lizard, having suffered a loss once before, instantly activated ’multi-eye’ mode. On its forehead and cheeks, two more pairs of eyes appeared. Especially the pair of eyes on its forehead which once more shone with a gleaming green light, piercing directly through the mist in front of it. The mist was just a simple concealment. Your next read is at empire For Jason, the essence of this attack was stealth and hiding. With the enhancement of [War Pattern. Prus. Griffin. Shadow Concealment Body Forging Technique], Jason normally had a ’stealth, hide’ level adjustment of +4, and at night, with the activation of [Embrace of the Night], he obtained an additional temporary ’stealth, hide’ level adjustment of +2. The same Mist Concealment had a ’stealth, hide’ level +1 temporary adjustment as well. From basic, to beginner, to proficient, then to master, expert, master. Ultimately, Jason’s ’stealth, hide’ level reached beyond that of master level: Unmatched! Even though the ’Unmatched’ level of ’stealth, hide’ didn’t have a specific textual representation, Jason, while sneaking and hiding his form, could feel that realm of moving as he wished. The darkness was no longer an unknown to be feared. It was as familiar to him as... breathing. With every breath, as if by instinct. He approached the large lizard without making a sound. The lizard’s six eyes scanned back and forth. It saw through the mist. But it couldn’t see Jason’s figure. The lizard searched, and then, it sensed a cold breeze coming from behind its head. On reflex, it turned around, and saw that familiar mouth full of sharp teeth. The head of the large lizard was bitten off by Jason again. He chewed greedily, the crunch, the crunching sound continuous, and the taste of melon appeared once more. Moreover, this time Jason heeded the lesson from before. After chewing twice, he opened his mouth again and bit off the upper half of the lizard’s body. But the lizard still escaped. If before it was like a snake, this time it truly became one. As Jason bit into the upper half of the lizard’s body, the lower half transformed into a strange-looking snake and swiftly slithered away into the depths of the passage.
