Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 754 The Scaled God Schemes

Chapter 754 The Scaled God Schemes

-----
The "Scaled God" was merely a Chaos Spirit, an entity from another Dimension, the Chaotic Dimension. His powers consisted in taking over other living beings. Their most prized hosts were the Chaotic Beasts, which they took over to make up their bodies. Their strength was formidable, and enormous armies of dragons and the surviving Gods were necessary to defeat them. But one by one, after many sacrifices, they all perished… or were sealed.
Within all of them, the Scaled God was one of such Chaos Spirits that survived, sealed, that's it. His opponent, the valiant Divine Fire Dragon, Blaze, managed to seal himself with the Chaos Spirit, inhibiting the spirit's ability to take over him, and weakening him over the eons of sealing.
However, Blaze's mind, and his very soul were all devoured by the vicious Chaos Spirit, and there was nothing left after that… other than his own corpse, parasitized and still somewhat "alive" now it had become the true body of the Chaos Spirit, this was perhaps the first ever born Chaos Dragon in this world. A being of unfathomable power.
But hope was not lost, the Scaled God was not strong right from the get-go after awakening, in fact, he was incredibly weakened. This all happened thanks to Blaze's last trump card, he sealed his own power and that of the Chaos Spirit, and made it so the seal would absorb both of their energies and slowly pour them into the environment, serving as a way to nourish the dying world the valiant dragon had left behind.
"I won't let you… have your way, Chaotic being…" Were the last words of Blaze, as he gave up his life for the greater good.
"Damn dragon… Damn prideful and stupid dragon! My power… All my power is gone… And now, I am stuck in this rotten body?!"
The Chaos Spirit had despaired. But despite having been weakened so much and having been sealed into the rotting corpse of Blaze, which was almost mummified at this point, he still had enough power to control others.
Perhaps due to the natural capabilities of Dragons, the Chaos Spirit acquired a dangerous ability… the power of manipulating certain races of beings, Lizardmen, in specific. This was because the true origins of lizardmen are somewhat closely related to dragons.
An old tale of the past which has been forgotten over the centuries somehow linked lizardmen as the servants of the dragons, they would obey their will almost as if they were being brainwashed, and could barely resist their orders… Only the strongest of them all could, or those too far away from their influence yet.
The Chaos Spirit used this opportunity to regain part of his power. Chaos Spirits had incredible powers beyond comprehension, they were capable of gaining power through blood, souls, and accumulated negative emotions, they feasted in the suffering of the masses as they invaded the world of Yggdrasil for this very reason…
Their nature as living beings was completely contradictory to those of all beings on Yggdrasil, they enjoyed destruction more than anything and enjoyed slaughter, it was what feed them, what nourished them, and what made them feel alive. Such actions were like breathing for them.
And naturally, he required sustenance. Finding himself in the middle of a vast jungle which grew this big thanks to the energy drained from him and the dragon Blaze, the Chaos Spirit utilized the awakened powers of his new dragon body to order the various lizardmen of this jungle to separate into many tribes, using small orders that slowly became something similar to just basic instincts, without even noticing, the lizardmen fought against one another for supremacy, constantly slaughtering one another, while a silent laughter of an insane monster from another dimension resonated underground.
"Gahahaha…! Yes… Give me more! More!"
Over the years the population of lizardmen began to go down tremendously, and the monsters took over their areas, the Beast Kings grew bigger and stronger, and even more common, it was like everything was going downfall… The Chaos Spirit had even created the Cannibals, lizardmen mutated by his miasma who were given an incredible thirst for flesh, although they never dared eat one another within their tribe, they hunted down other tribes and mercilessly devoured even the small children… monstrous and aberrant, these beings brought the demise of many small villages, all of whom became sacrifices for the Chaos Spirit.
Over time, his power continued to recover, but things were suddenly stopped by… Somebody. Him, the hero himself, the one destined to end this and reunite the lizardmen, a man born with an unique ability that allowed his leadership to break the curse of the Chaos Spirit, and make people follow him and unify for him, his might and his strong heart only made it more obvious, this man was the Chaos Spirit natural enemy.
Perhaps due to necessity, a man like that was born from a small and starving village of lizardmen. The Chaos Spirit wanted to slay him before he were to do anything, but he was expelled from his tribe before that and ended surviving on his own. Just to spite on him, the Chaos Spirit ordered a group of wild cannibals to massacre his village, thinking that this would break his mind and make him submissive, but at the end, it only enhanced Larzak's heart and conviction to end this suffering.
At the end, things went bad, the one and only that could resist his brainwashing stood against him, and fought against the cannibals, slaying them all for good, and then, slowly, through wards and fights, he unified the lizardmen into a big and unified tribe of people, the Black Fangs.
The Chaos Spirit attempted many times to terminate him, but he was never capable of, even with the might of the Beast Kings, they all fell against his power one by one…
Ultimately, he grew desperate and decided to reveal himself as their savior, as their… god. The Scaled God then emerged and decided to make of Larzak his pawn.
