71 Pits and Earthen Kingdom
"Hmm i shouldnt have burnt the other one to the point that he became ashes, now i only have 1 body added to my list, system does the kill get shared between the two tasks?"
"No host, each quest will require their own specific body count with priority to higher task type, this body shall be recorded towards the hosts side task unless the host prefers to record it on their daily task which is executable"
"Nah keep it on my side task first, haaa its gonna take long for me to hunt down that many people without alarming the army"
Lizzy sighed and then proceeded to open her status to check up on the genodes she had accumulated over the week, she was planning to rush level since she only had two weeks till the new space update but then again after she brainstormed while hunting the entire week she noticed that even if she speed levelled she will still be unable to devour the world during the given time.
"Honestly i trust that the system has some sort of method for me to devour a dimension with ease, first things first though, i need to finish these tasks and then leave the island to find a village to eat... that skill really is twisting my head here..."

"12k 1st tier genodes, the monster rats ive eaten really give a lot huh and even though they dont have ranks atleast ive paid my loan in full, though i still question the shady 100 year lifespan mortgage, anywho lets proceed with some quick strengthening, system strengthen me using all my genodes possible!"
"Executing command"
So lizzy stood on both of her short limbs as if she were still human, raised her arms and them proceed to let herself slowly drop backwards, ofcourse she controlled her tail to ensure it didnt break nor bent unnaturally, with a loud thump lizzy then began to roll all over the floor leaving flakes on the ground as she changed and grew once again to be heavier and larger.
There were plenty of flakes this time due to the fact that she was undergoing 3 strengthening procedures at the same time, after evolving her growth got a massive boost that became even more massive due to the double result effect of her skill and it would only grow bigger as time accumulates.
It took her a couple of minutes of rolling around to finally be itch free, although the author didnt explain how itchy it was, the author will now state that the itchiness lizzy could feel at this moment was as if a billion mosquitos bit her all at once.
"I will never get used to the strengthening itch even after i get stronger, anyway i feel a bit heavier and stronger! system open status"

"Pretty good i say, hey system dont i get a reward for evolving? its been a week you know"
"The host already accepted the reward in the form of first evolution protection, each evolution will give the host varying rewards after the first one so the system implores the host to get stronger for more rewards"
"I feel like i have just been cheated honestly"
The system didnt respond and just left lizzy with the cheated sensation deep in her head, lizzy shook her head and got her mind off of it and then proceeded to walk down the stairs towards the mansions living room where she kept all the wood she was drying since she got some wet wood as well, she placed them in her inventory and proceeded to the places she memorized, she chose late hours to dig since she would be covered in the darkness of the night.
It took lizzy quite a bit of time since she had to stick the wood deep into the pit while creating tunnels that led to the mansion, why? because it would be easier to travel towards the mansion after retrieving bodies, she used some pieces of wood to create a self destruct mechanism in her tunnels so no one will find them and follow her.
Her construction work took 2 days from start to finish and would surely cause chaos to the patrols, the soldiers just wore their cloth uniforms so the thick wood should be able to easily puncture it.
"Anyway after eating that guy i found their gun and it seems to be very unique, hey system why cant i use monster and animal body parts to upgrade myself but i can use the dragon scale and parts from the system?"
"The reason for that host is that the dragon scale and parts from the system are processed into consumables turning it into pure side effect less items, if the host wants to use animal and monster parts as upgrades the system will stop blocking the prompts for impure items usage"
"Okay keep blocking it, i dont want to experience the side effects"
Lizzy shivered slightly as she imagined some pretty gruesome side effects and by gruesome side effects what entered her head was her suddenly exploding and her guts raining down all over the place, she didnt want to die again.

2 days passed, Military encampment, Island HQ.
"Admiral another squadron has discovered trap pits and lost another 2 members once again" Eagle Soldier.
"Have you found any evidence of any human activity or presence apart from our encampment on the island?" Mr.Smith.
"No sir! from what we have discovered there are no signs nor footprints at the scene that show monster or human activity" Eagle Soldier.
"It wont be the worms since those demons can easily travel the ground and no use for the pits, i can only assume its that massive gorilla then, but how can it not leave any footprints, could it fly?" Mr.Smith thought to himself.
"Keep on investigating then, weve lost 4 good men from those wretched traps, we dont need more of those casualties even though its minimal" Mr.Smith.
While Smith was boggled by what and how the traps came to be, a certain alligator was soaking herself on the shore near the village she stayed at, even after becoming an animal she still couldn't give up on the human hygiene routine she had developed.
"Haaa a bath is really the best thing to do after a hard days work, 4 bodies are in my inventory and i can devour them anytime to complete my tasks, i just hope the pit traps count as defeating them otherwise all my effort is for naught"

Panda Empire, Safezone.
"Platoon leader Cheng!" A soldier saluted to Tai Cheng as he travelled around the barracks that he had been relocated at.
"At ease" Tai Cheng responded while walking away towards the building he stayed in, he slept in the same bunk bed as his platoon but awaken earlier than them, Tai Chengs popularity at the shelter had been growing at a fast rate, at the shelter department heads were below platoon leaders since they dont perform combat which is important unless youre the president.
Tai Cheng sat at his bed and took out a folded photo, after opening the photo it could be seen that it was a photo of lizzy when she was still human, Tai Cheng was regretting what he had done and hoped that he could apologize and fix their relationship, he didn't expect to be forgiven immediately especially after that company fiasco they had pulled.
"Haa really shouldve stuck to you lizzy and not that b*tch" Tai Cheng.
He folded the photo again and placed it in his pocket before proceeding to take a small notebook out of his shirt pocket, in the past till the present some soldier tend to carry booklets with them as a diary, journal, or just to ensure they had paper for their final will.
He began to slowly write down his activities of that day down on his booklet, he began doing so a few days after he was cheated upon by Diao Meng, it helped him calm down and release his rage by writing them down.
"That should be enough for today, i have a meeting to attend at 1400" Tai Cheng, he closed the booklet and placed it in the pocket of the pants he was wearing.
...
Underground, Titan's Kingdom.
The underground kingdom was quite polished for a kingdom of soil, there were buildings and even streets paved with smooth stone, springs acted as fountains that kept the ground slightly moist allowing green to flourish even without sunlight, massive orbs containing lava was at the ceiling, the lava inside it circulated and kept the stream of magma perfectly cycled so that it wont cool down.
"People we have been gathered here today to announce that we the earthen people have once more made an alliance with the people of the seas and the sky, the earthen king, his majesty Titan has willingly extended his hand to help the weak sea and sky kingdoms in conquering this world, his charitable self, selflessly deciding to lend his strength to the poor sky and sea kingdoms..." The kings right hand.
"Okay no need to keep on babbling as* kis*er we got the point!" Soil man.
"Who said that!! reveal yourself and accept your punishment!!" Right hand.
Nobody stepped forward and he had no one to cent unto, he wasnt allowed to randomly murder people since they were 2 weeks away from a war with the humans.
"Whoever you are, you are lucky since my benevolent self have decided to spare you and not pursue this matter, anyway people of the earthen kingdom! prepare yourselves and arm any able body available! we are about to go to war and we must win this war for our great lord!" Right hand.
Even after all the a*s ki*sing and the minor trouble afterwards, all the earthen people roared at the top of their non-existent lungs, they were creatures of war and pure chaos born from Titans own mana and flesh.
