After that, Fangzheng also heard about the white whale from Kurshus.
Rumor had it that the white whale was one of the three major monsters created by the witch. The other two were the rabbit and the black snake. These three monsters caused terrible harm to the world and humans, especially the white whale. It had a very special ability, which was that people who were swallowed by the white whale would lose their existence. Except for the people closest to them, no one else would remember that person.
Hearing this, Fangzheng became a little interested, because the nature of the white whale that Kurshus mentioned was quite similar to that of the Disciples of the Red World. Humans who were swallowed by the Disciples of the Red World would also lose their existence and gradually disappear. But Fangzheng did not expect to encounter such a creature in this world.
That was a little interesting.
But for Fangzheng, it was just a little interesting.
According to Kurshus, the white whale spent most of its time in the kingdom, which had a considerable impact on passing caravans. The Kingdom of Luganica had tried to suppress the white whale in the past, but it failed in the end. But Kurshus was not discouraged. He wanted to try to suppress the white whale again, but before that, the first thing he had to do was to find out the white whale's location.
That was very difficult.
Therefore, when Kurshus learned that Fangzheng had a way to determine the location of the monster, he immediately came to visit him.
"Well, I think I understand the situation."
After hearing Kurxiu's recount, Fangzheng nodded.
"But what does this have to do with me? You should know that I don't have a good relationship with Luganica. To be honest, your troubles are nothing but a show to me. If that white whale is stupid enough to come to my territory, of course I'll deal with it, but since it's not here, then … .what price do you have to pay? "
"The Carlsten Family is willing to send soldiers to help Your Excellency clean up the forest of monsters."
Kurshus immediately gave his terms of the deal.
"We have excellent healers here who should be able to help Your Excellency solve a lot of your problems. Also, you can gain the friendship of the Carlsten Family."
"I don't think the friendship of the Carlsten Family is of any use to me … Hmm …"
Fangzheng rubbed his chin and thought for a moment.
"Alright, it just so happens that we don't have enough manpower. It's fine if you're willing to come. However, since it's a deal, we'll have to wait until the entire Magical Beast Forest is cleaned up. If you back out midway, then the deal will be canceled.
"Of course not."
Upon hearing Fangzheng's answer, Kurxiu heaved a sigh of relief. Her blessing allowed her to determine if Fangzheng's words were true or false. Furthermore, Kurxiu did not see any problems with Fangzheng's answer. In other words, he could indeed find the damn white whale. For Kurxiu, that was enough.
After the two sides reached an agreement, Kurxiu immediately dispatched soldiers from her family. At the same time, she also sent a cute girl called Filis, a cat-eared trap. According to Kurxiu's introduction, Filis was her knight and one of the best healers in the kingdom.
Fangzheng was not surprised to see Filis. It was not the first time he had seen such a cute girl. Instead, Filis was a little unhappy that he did not manage to trick Fangzheng. After all, what he liked the most was the reaction of others when they found out his true identity. In the end, Fangzheng just glanced at him and said, "A cat-eared trap? That's quite rare. "And then … that was it.
This made Filis feel a little defeated.
Although he looked very fake and girly, Filis's healing skills were indeed quite good. With his help, the efficiency of the adventurers began to improve again. The soldiers on Kurshus' side were also quite strong. Of course, these soldiers could only deal with ordinary monsters. The high-level monsters deeper in the forest still needed experienced and powerful adventurers to deal with them.
But accidents always happened.
In fact, not long after that, Fangzheng received a report that a group of adventurers had gone deep into the forest and were attacked.
But this time, the ones who attacked them were not monsters, but …
"The Witch's Cult?"
Fangzheng frowned as he looked at the corpses in black robes being carried back on the ground.
"Why are these guys here?"
"Maybe they're using that place as their stronghold."
Hearing Fangzheng's question, Lardis answered. As an adventurer's party, Cang Rose naturally came to join in the fun. Just based on their relationship with Fangzheng, it was only right for them to come and help.
"The Witch's Cult is the most notorious organization in the whole continent. Generally speaking, this kind of organization would not set up a stronghold in a city like Octagon. Perhaps they use places like the Forest of Beasts to hide their existence."
"The Witch's Cult …"
Looking at the corpses on the ground, Lamu and Rem who were behind Fangzheng showed cold eyes. Although the matter was over, to them, the Witch's Cult was still an unforgivable enemy who destroyed their village.
Incidentally, after that, Fangzheng also tried to heal Lamu's horn, but in the end, Fangzheng helplessly discovered that the horn of a ghost was not just a simple horn. Strictly speaking, the horn of a ghost was part of the soul, and a ghost would materialize it when needed. Therefore, when Lamu's horn was cut off, he suffered double damage to his body and soul.
Physical injuries were easy to heal, whether it was with Fangzheng's time manipulation or medical glue, but damage to the soul was a different story. Fangzheng and Kuang San had tried it before. Their time reversal could restore the corpses of the dead to their living state, but it could not restore their souls.
It was the same here. Fangzheng used time reversal to heal Lamu's physical injuries, but he had to think of another way to heal his damaged soul.
"In other words, there's still the Witch's Cult in Magical Beast Forest? What an endless bunch of cockroaches. "
"What do we do now?"
"What do we do?"
Upon hearing Ladis's question, Fangzheng snorted lightly.
"Just treat it as a special event. Pass down my order. Inform all adventurers that from now on, hunt the Witch's Cult disciples first. 100 gold coins for each Witch's Cult disciple! The BOSS will be counted separately! The Witch's Cult Hunt has begun! "
Fangzheng swept a glance at the corpses before him.
"Also, don't bring the corpses back next time. Just the ears will do."
As the saying goes, money makes the world go round.
After Fangzheng gave the order to start the 'special event', the adventurers' eyes lit up like players who saw a special mission in a mobile game.
The Witch's Cult disciples hiding in the forest were in big trouble.
Generally speaking, most adventurers didn't want to provoke the cultists. For example, Cang Qiang Wei, who was related to the country's ruler, other adventurers would rather avoid trouble. Of course, if they encountered the cultists on the way, they would have no choice but to fight.
But on normal days, no adventurers would take the initiative to find trouble with the cultists. After all, although they were cultists, they were still a sect with believers all over the country. If he provoked them too much, he might be stabbed in the back by some unknown cultists at some point in time.
But it was different with money!
100 gold coins for each Cult disciple!
That was a huge opening sale!
With this money, they could fulfill their dreams. Whether it was returning to their hometown to get married or buying a farm to become a farmer, it would be enough!
They wouldn't have to live a dangerous life anymore. They wouldn't have to continue taking risks. They could live a stable and comfortable life!
Under the temptation of such a huge carrot, the adventurers immediately erupted with 120% of their energy and began to battle with the Witch's Cult disciples.
And so, the Witch's Cult disciples were finished.
As cultists, they naturally had some special abilities to hide from their enemies. But this time, the adventurers wouldn't let them go. Many of the adventurers were good at tracking and searching, and they had the advantage in numbers. So even if the Witch's Cult disciples chose to escape, most of them would be caught and killed by the adventurers, and their ears would be cut off.
For a moment, the Witch's Cult disciples hiding in the forest also suffered heavy losses.
"I didn't think you'd actually pay so much for the Witch's Cult meow."
Filis complained to Fangzheng as he healed the adventurers.
"Look at them now. These adventurers are going crazy meow. Filis feels a headache when he heals them meow."
Because there were too many of them.
"What does it matter? Isn't this the effect I wanted when I raised the bounty?"
Fangzheng shrugged and reached out to pat Ram and Rem's head.
"Besides, it's just a Witch's Cult. I'll destroy it myself when I have the time."
Fangzheng had also investigated the Witch's Cult. At first, Fangzheng was worried that the Witch's Cult might be related to the Demonic Dragon King Gabe or the Underworld King Fibrizo, but he later found out that the Witch's Cult worshipped the Witch. This meant that they didn't have any backing worth caring about. Moreover, these bastards were the enemies of Ram and Rem, so Fangzheng naturally planned to find a chance to wipe them all out together.
Now that the Witch's Cult had come knocking on his door, Fangzheng naturally wouldn't hold back.
"It's not easy to destroy the Witch's Cult meow …."
But at that moment, a low explosion suddenly interrupted the conversation between Filis and Fangzheng. Everyone looked up and saw a red firework rising into the sky from the depths of the forest and exploding.
Is that ….. a distress signal?
Are the adventurers in trouble?
Seeing this, Fangzheng raised his eyebrows. This was the first time someone had released a distress signal since they started clearing the Holy Beast Forest. After all, there used to be Cang Qiang and a large group of Silver-tier adventurers in the forest. Even if one or two of them were in danger, they would be taken care of by the others.
But now …..
"I'll go take a look."
