GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?-Chapter 2155: Three Mutants.

They smiled because they had seen this series of events happen in the future.

In that future, mutants appeared everywhere, beast tides attacked frequently, diseases and plagues spread, killing millions, and earthquakes and calamities wiped out entire cities.

There was so much chaos and death that the people became miserable. The lamp bearers also became miserable because they were always at the front line helping the people.

The lamp bearers were ground down little by little through the calamities. They became broken and unable to put up much of a fight when the Emperor, who had become a god through the pathway of disorder, began to fight back.

That was supposed to happen in the future. And while things hadn't become as bad as they were in the future, he could already guess that the nobles had become fed up already with the lamp bearers and were beginning to make their move.

He smiled and left his house with his lamp. He needed the lamp not to see, but to identify himself in the darkness.

The lamp itself was round, but it was attached to a long staff. After taking it, he poured some energy water into it which caused it to light up with a bright green light. Then went he straight to the place that Captain Sheckel wanted him to support.

Captain Sheckel herself was in the same place. It was a village. Three rank 3 mutants suddenly appeared in the village and were killing people.

When Legion got there, he realized why Captain Sheckel needed to call in every reinforcement they had. Even Janus was recalled from the prison to support them.

The three mutants were a giant, a killer, and a traveler. Each one had changed so much that they couldn't be considered humans anymore. They were utter monsters.

The giant was more than eight feet tall. It was a man, but it now looks like a humanoid bull. Its skin was brown like the earth. It had two large horns on its head, and its fingers were hooves.

The giant's body was muscular. Its muscles rippled under its skin like steel bars. This was particularly accurate because the giant's body had hardened into rock. So it would be accurate to call the giant a stone statue, but it could move.

The killer was the most grotesque among the three of them. His skin had turned completely red. He also had red tentacles sprouting all over his body.

The traveler was the smallest and the one who still resembled a human. The main change in this man was that his lower half had turned into that of a goat's.

So the traveler was half man, half goat. He had two small horns on his head and a small goatee on his chin. He also had fur all over his body.

Apart from all of these, another thing that set the mutants apart from normal humans was their eyes. Their eyes were completely black. They had two swirling ones of darkness for eyes, yet they could see very well.

Legion saw all of these and said to themselves, "This is not going to be easy."

Legion-6 chuckled and said, "It is definitely not going to be easy. What are the odds of three mutants appearing in the same small village at the same time?"

Captain Sheckel was standing on top of a building. She had a white lamp on a staff in her hand as she overlooked the village and watched the three mutants rampaging about, killing people.

People in the village were running about and screaming. Captain Sheckel frowned when she saw this.

Legion was looking at while wondering to themselves, "she looks different today."

Then they snorted inwardly and said, "It doesn't matter what she looks like today. What matters is if she can hold back three mutants that are nearly equal to a rank 4 being".

Captain Sheckel does look different today. It was a difference in her demeanor.

She didn't look like the calm, easygoing person that they were used to. She looked like a soldier getting them self physically and mentally ready to fight.

She shouted to the other lamp bearers standing around her, "Follow me."

Then she jumped down from the top of the house and dashed towards the mutants. Everyone else had to follow her.

She first rushed towards the killer. The mutant was taller and thinner than normal. Its flesh had also turned into something elastic so its tentacles could stretch and distort.

She reached it and pointed at it. A white light flashed out of her pointed finger and flew towards the killer.

The killer didn't have human intelligence anymore, so it didn't dodge. Not that it could dodge an attack so fast. After all, killers aren't known for their fast speed.

The white light struck the killer in the chest and exploded. It exploded in a strange way.

There was no fire or sound in the explosion of the white light. Instead, the white light expanded in the form of a growing white circle.

Wherever the white circle passed in the mutant's body, some part of it was left on the flesh. These white parts left behind were akin to dust. But they clumped together to form glowing white runes.

After the white light exploded and expanded all over the red mutant, a layer of white runes had been imprinted on its body. These white runes were also activated immediately. They turned into tiny white chains.

The white chains didn't harm the red mutant at all. But they shackled it and made it difficult for it to move.

Captain Sheckel said to the sergeant on her right, "Deal with this. The rest, follow me."

The sergeant was carrying a yellow lamp. He nodded in understanding and stuck the lamp into the ground.

A third of the lamp bearers went with this sergeant to fight the killer. Legion wasn't among them.

Legion didn't join them to fight the killer because he wasn't optimistic about the chances of the four godclads that went to fight the mutant.
