BXBX NOVEL Chapter 145: Upgrading The Lizardmen
Not to mention, the Alpha Lizardmen are not exactly cheap to take care of, their large size make them unable to be of used aside from the battlefield, which make them not cost-effective to keep during the time between battles.
Though, if they are like crocodiles, maybe they don\'t need to eat much. He would have to test it out in the future.
"We just have to see," he said to himself, preparing to see their reaction.

Surprisingly, despite being her to subdue, the Lizardmen are obedient, and did not act against order, which is something he is grateful of. Aside from being large eaters, they did not cause any troubles, which make life easier.
They also seem to like their new homes, enjoying the place. He watched as they began to build something, likely the housing. While Lizardmen could live nearly everywhere, having a place to live in is beneficial, as it allowed them to raise their young easier.
The same thing is true for the Fiend Race as well, who the much smaller beings in their ranks having built dwellings of their own, the Ogres and Trolls having to less outside said dwelling due to their size and monster\'s lack of abilities in term of construction abilities.
With them settled, Alros decided to check on them, and see if there is any that can benefit the most from the improvement he would be doing.

"Rargh!" looks like he found the cousin to goblinese dialect, lizardian.
The chief, the largest and strongest after the Alpha Lizardman bow to him. His frills the largest and likely the strongest. While the monster still at the C-rank, he think he is among the top of C-ranks.
"Get 10 of your strongest men and come with me," the Lizardman nodded as it called out to the others, screeching to the others. Soon, 10 Lizardmen came, all of them larger than the average male, clearly veterans with the amount of scars on them.
"Let\'s go," he did not plan to dwell on such thing, instead, he is going to see if they will improve from having demonic attribute added to them.

"We can begin," he said, as the chief was inside the Transmutation Magic Circle. However, for him, he prepared his blood, the lust essence extracted to turned him into Greater Demonic Lizardman, or he hope so.
He could end up killing the Lizardman, but it is a sacrifice he is willing to make. With the preparation finished, Alros began to start the transmutation process, causing screech of pain to escape the large monster.
The other Lizardmen seem agitated but an order from him cause them to calm down. Though, the process would likely take sometime. After all, Gobruk, who is at D-rank at that time took nearly 4 hours before the process was completed.
He believe that the chief would take longer, maybe even double the length of that time. He prepared himself, as he was about to go for at least 8 hours channeling and ensuring the process occurred with no problem.

"That. Took longer than I thought," he panted to himself, watching as the Lizardman in front of him change coloring. From the previous pale green, likely to help him camouflage himself, there is now two more coloring added, black and red.
His eye colors turned from yellow to red, while the frills turned completely black and red, with only tinge of pale green can be seen at the edges.
Overall, the creature in front of him look menacing, and he did not want to have it any other way.
"Looking good," he admitted, the Lizardman bowing to him.
"I should give you a name. Hhmm, considering you are the first Greater Demonic Lizardman, how about, Raptor?" the Lizardman communicate with him through their link, voicing it\'s approval.
"Raptor it is," he let out a chuckle as he watched the others looked at their transformed chief with both wariness and awe. The expected reaction, that he had seen multiple times before.
"With that is out of the way, I think we should get the rest of you some upgrade as well," the way they perk up make them look like happy dogs than murder-happy lizards but he did not mind. They will become monsters of demonic attribute soon anyway.

Thankfully, the other Lizardmen took less long compared to their chief, a mere half an hour for each one. It still meant he had to spent 5 whole hours to turn them into Demonic Lizardmen.
"At least it\'s worth it," Alros muttered. The 10 have turned from at the middle of the C-ranks to the top of the C-ranks. Weaker than their leader even when he was not transformed but still powerful.
While he planned to turn them all into Demonic Lizardmen, it will take time, though, with how less troublesome it is compared to the chief, he can put the Transmutation Magic Circle into autopilot, and there would be nothing wrong, now that the recipe had been recorded.
Unfortunately, if he wanted to turn the other chief of the other tribes into Greater Demonic Lizardman, he would need to be there, as he decided to not use his limited recipe paper for a species that he would likely not create that much.
After all, he can always just be there and the first time help him to speed up the process greatly.
"Well, at least there is something that will help me release the stress from working," he muttered as his eyes landed on the women in the room, all nude and giving him sultry smile.
He took of his armor, and pounced at them, the sounds of moaning and panting filled the room soon enough.
