Chapter 232 - The Eye of the Beast Part 3
Despite being weighed down by several Gravity Bolts, the Croc is still able to step forward, though the left leg drags through the mud. I continue to blast the Croc with my water cannon, until the monster is forced to lift one hand to try and block the spray. I'm not doing any sort of serious da...
Chapter 231 - Eye of the Beast Part 2
The slowly rotating vortex of death engulfed the Gigantic Croca.Die! Die you overgrown hand bag!Please?The Gravity Bomb continues to suck in air, sticks and whatever else is unable to resist its immense pull. The power of the Gravity Bomb still shocks me to my core. When mana reaches a critical dens...
Chapter 230 - The eye of the beast part 1
With dirty swamp water dripping off of my carapace I felt the formless pressure build ever higher as the group frantically cast their heads about trying to identify the source. It has to be close! It could be coming towards us right now!["Eyes open everyone! Something nasty is coming!"]With ...
Chapter 229 - The encroaching doom
Since we unexpectedly crushed the Immortalis Garralosh (immortal Garralosh? Even I can work that one out), progress has been slow.The density of monsters has been increasing. Not only the Croca beasts in their various forms are more common but also the local wildlife. One of those stupid Hippo Turtl...
The Devil you know - 1.1
Hi folks!Here is something I wrote for giggles the other day. It's a new twist on a concept I spent some time on a long time ago. Not sure if I'll write more of this one or not, let me know what you think of it in the comments! :)--------------The sky was burning.A roiling ocean of smoulderi...
Chapter 228 - The bigger they are...
Our new foe continues to take its time approaching our position. Its skin has rapidly closed over and healed the damage that Vibrant was able to do with her enhanced acid, indicating some powerful regenerative effect. Is it tied to the skin? Surely not even a Croca Beast would be stupid enough to wa...
Chapter 227 - Undying
We've killed a lot of Croca-Beasts already in our expedition. I don't know exactly how many children Garralosh has but we are seriously depleting the tables at the family reunion at the rate we are going.I've now eaten so many of the basic Croca's that we managed to unlock the interm...
Chapter 226 - Woodstuffs
What the heck is this stuff?After venturing forth again, it wasn't long, and only one fight before we came across something curious and I halted the group for a careful inspection.We're looking at one of the mangrove style trees that emerge straight out of the muddy waters of the marsh expan...
Chapter 225 - The push
After the discovery of the wondrous Dungeon aphids we spent two more days pushing into the Expanse. Monsters became more and more common the deeper we went. Hippo-Turtles, Double Crocs, bewitching flowers, a tree that tried to eat Tiny and got punched to pieces, all sorts of stuff.I didn't care ...
Chapter 224 - The rebel child
Beyn found the new arrivals huddled under a tree towards the edge of the village. Refugees, fleeing the continuing destruction of the kingdom to the north arrived nearly every day. Sometimes in small groups of three or four, other times a collection of families, farmers usually, fleeing their holdin...
Chapter 223 - New growth
Beyn was a Priest and he was proud of that class. He had worked hard in the seminary, his faith blazing with an admirable glow, such that he had earned promotion and placement into a small village at a young age.He still thought back on his time at the college, within the Path Sanctuary in Luxon. A ...

Chapter 221 - The wonders of nature
I realise now that my brain, or rather my fancy new antennae, were telling me that I was about to have my legs bitten off in a savage and painful manner by a large creature emerging from the murky waters to my left.Unfortunately I was simply unable to process the information quickly enough. I mean, ...
Chapter 220 - Once more into the expanse
After we've made a quick delivery to the surface and we take a little time to rest in order to aid the digestion. Fighting on a full stomach isn't the best feeling in the world, especially when I've already taken in a special core.The tight, painful feeling has faded in the background by...
Chapter 219 - Expeditious retreat
With the heavy hitter taken out of the equation there isn't much left to the fight. Crinis and I quickly destroy the Titan Crocs and rush back to help support Tiny and Vibrant.The giant ape and ant soldier are beaten and bruised but victorious as they lord over their fallen enemies. Tiny is beat...
Chapter 218 - Skirmish conclusion
More fireballs fly out of the distance and impact against my water domain, sending massive gouts of steam hissing into the air and further reducing visibility. In front of me, buffeted and soaked by the frothing mass of water than makes up my water domain, the double croc lunges forward with its mas...
Chapter 217 - Feast of Croc
What is experience? Where does it come from? Where does it go? Ever since the System descended on our world, scholars priests and wise ones all over the world have sought to understand it. Class progressions have been mapped out, skill trees have been researched and codified endlessly. Many aspects ...
Chapter 216 - Magical Ant
As my first victim languishes within my spell that is quite literally trying to pull it apart in every direction, I turn my attention to the rest of the monsters coming our way. So far there are six Titan Crocs and three of the larger Double Crocs who need dealing with.Come to me, you leathery chump...
Chapter 215 - The new Croc on the Block
["Eat up gang, not long until the next wave is here"] I warn my troops.Crinis has already eaten of course, stuffing her face with ten Crocas and an entire Titan Croc. If I get my hands on that dimensional stomach during my next evolution I swear I'll dance for a week straight.I'm so ...
Chapter 214 - Battle Begins
The smaller croca beasts look quite apprehensive to be approaching the grasping tentacles of death but with their larger cousins pressing them from behind they have little choice but to continue to approach.Crinis has spread her net of tentacles in a ten metre arc towards the approaching foes, her t...
Chapter 213 - Contact
Finally got this posted! Sorry folks, been a bit unwell this week and I've fallen behind. Thanks very much for patience - AuthorThe Marsh Expanse is still teeming with monstrous life. I can see moneters creeping out of connected tunnels, making their way deeper into the recesses in order to meet...
Chapter 212 - Assault begins
Sorry folks, short chapter todayThe new evolution has certainly seen a massive rise in Vibrant's stats! And some of her organs look incredibly unique. The command organ? Did she get that from being a special ant from birth?Gah! I should have investigated her core ages ago! That's what I get ...
Chapter 211 - Farewell surface
[How long will you be gone for?] Enid asks worriedly.[As long as it takes to remove the threat] I reply.This is why I don't like coming up here to the human camp. No sooner did I appear than people started gathering and pointing. Then the priest came at a run, his face flushed with excitement an...
Chapter 210 - The A(nt) team
Eventually, the horrific itching fades, and I scramble back to my feet and cast my eyes about to see who was witnessing my fervent rolling. Thankfully it appears that mother retreated once she was sure all of the noise wasn't related to some threat or danger of any kind, and my pets are too busy...
Chapter 209 - The state of play
My cloud backups weren't up to date when I started working on my new laptop so if there is something wrong with Anthony's status please let me know!Muahahaha! With over a hundred points to spend, I'm feeling slightly giddy. What to go for first?Currently I've upgraded eyes to +7 and ...
Chapter 208 - Compression obsession
Sorry folks, been a bit distracted unfortunately. Chapter is here!As the rather explosive effect of my compressed water bolt faded and the monsters began to recover themselves as more flooded into the narrow tunnel to trample over the fallen I took a little time to reflect on the success of the spel...
Chapter 207 - The boys and girls are back in town
As Tiny smashes into the front of the monster wave I can hear a voice calling from behind me."Hey-Hey! Wait for me senior!"Vibrant….As Crinis joins Tiny on the front lines the little ant motors down the passage behind us to quickly catch up and I sigh internally.It isn't that we've...
Chapter 206 - New Dawn
There they are. Look at them. Peacefully sleeping for now, awaiting the day when they awake and take their first steps into the world. Shhhhhh little ones. You don't know it yet, but the world will be your oyster. Yes it will! You will roam wherever you wish and bring prosperity to our family. O...
Chapter 205 - The world below part 5
Titus didn't wait for the Legionaries to answer and immediately started calling names, lining everyone up before him in name order. The young soldiers were so accustomed to following his orders that doing as he said was almost instinctual.In the dim light the commander looked as impressive as al...
Chapter 204 - The World Below Part 4
The rest of the new Legionaries were gathered together in a cluster at the end of their ward under the watchful eye of a few Centurions. The young soldiers felt restless. They still didn't know how to feel towards the Legion and the seniors who had cared for and trained them for so long. The pai...
