After finding the 'leftover' clues, the rest went smoothly. Normal people might think that they had covered it up well, but in the eyes of a tracking expert, there were flaws everywhere.
The muddy footprints, the broken branches, the moss that had been rubbed off the tree trunk … they were as obvious as signs.
The six-man adventurer team, along with Elvin and Olivia, who had nothing better to do, turned into another branch of the forest's river network.
Hualala …
More and more frogs appeared amidst the gurgling water, and their sizes grew larger.
At the same time, they discovered more and more traces of human activity along the way. It was obvious that more than one person had entered and exited the dense forest along the river. Under such circumstances, the most likely possibility was that the owner of these traces had taken away the missing girls.
"Kouncy's City Guard is really useless. The missing girls were obviously kidnapped, but they couldn't even find out. When we bring them back, we'll give them a good slap in the face."
"Don't be careless. We'll talk about this when we get back."
They were excited.
The six-man adventurer team walked faster and faster. They did not notice that they could no longer pay attention to what was behind them. The two people whom they thought were the young master and young mistress of a noble family followed suit. The distance between them did not widen, but neither did they get closer.
When they reached the end of the river, they left the dense forest.
Croak, croak, croak …
The croaking of frogs suddenly sounded from the front. Along the way, they could also hear the croaking of frogs, but this time, it was like rolling thunder. It was so loud that it hurt their eardrums.
However, they did not care. No matter how loud the croaking of frogs was, they were still frogs. It was not like they could grow claws and bite people.
Soon.
The leader of the team, Titus, who possessed the strength of an official Knight, had already left the forest. The first thing he saw was a rocky beach covered in emerald green moss. It looked like a thick carpet.
Thirty to forty frogs with long, yellowish-green, moss-like fur on their bodies were larger than cows. They croaked and charged like Knights.
These frogs opened their mouths wide and were filled with sharp, triangular teeth. Their thick limbs had sharp claws that pierced through the pads of their toes. Even the smooth pebbles washed by the stream were easily crushed by these terrifying weapons.
When they began to jump in groups, even the leaves around them shook.
Captain Titus's expression changed from excitement, to shock, and then to fear within a second.
Although they were still far away, he could already smell the disgusting wet stench on their bodies. Their ferocious aura made the official Knight lose the courage to even draw his sword.
The only good news was that the Frog Monster's movement speed wasn't that fast. His team still had a chance to escape.
"Howling Storm above …"
He had no time to think about how he had accidentally entered the lair of such a terrifying monster while he was searching for the missing person and the kidnapper.
Whoosh!
With an unprecedented speed, Titus turned around and rushed back into the forest. He shouted to his team members, "Let's go!
"Give up the quest! There are monsters! Run!"
She took the lead and ran into the forest, wanting to rely on the dense vegetation to block and restrict their movements. When she saw the young couple following behind her, she hesitated for a moment before reminding them,
"If you want to live, try to escape from the forest by yourself!"
Hearing this, Elvin and Olivia were slightly surprised. They took a deep look at the middle-aged man.
With their [Low Voltage Pulse] and [Seagull's [Mind Network] that could detect with their own vitality magnetic field, they had already seen the scene on the rocky beach ahead of the team.
With the strength of this team, there was no way they could fight against the monsters.
They did not push the two of them out to take the brunt of the disaster. Among the mercenaries who lived on the edge of their blades and lacked morals, they were rare exceptions with morals.
And it was because of this delay.
Suddenly, a green shadow flashed in the forest.
The green-robed man named Mike was the first to rush in front of them under the cover of the trees. He pulled out a heavy and well-forged pirate's scimitar from his robe and sent Titus flying with a single slash.
Crushing strength!
Bang!
The team leader smashed through the dense shrubs until he crashed into the trunk of a large tree. He spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Cough cough … Senior Knight? Who are you? Why did you kidnap those women? "
Titus was severely injured in an instant. His subordinates who wanted to rescue them did not even have time to move.
The loud croaking of frogs was getting closer and closer. Under the deterrence of this powerful green-robed man, all the team members could not help but feel despair.
"Pfft!"
The green-robed man sneered. He was not prepared to answer this stupid question. He casually rested his scimitar on his shoulder.
When he turned to look at the noble couple not far away, especially Olivia, who seemed to have brought life to the forest, his eyes lit up.
"Hahaha, what a pleasant surprise. If I offer such a beautiful bride to the 'Frog God' this year, the gods may grant me the right to make another wish.
Let me become a Grade 3 Knight that the entire city of Kounsai does not have. "
Looking at his behavior, people would only think that he was a fierce pirate. No one would have guessed that he had never left the city in the past twenty years after he had obtained such great power.
This was the first time Olivia had come across such a tyrannical plot in a knight novel. She tugged at Elvin's sleeve excitedly.
"Bride? Hey! Elvin, did you hear that? Someone actually dares to steal your wife, hahaha … "
In an instant, other than the croaking of frogs, the forest was filled with her bell-like laughter.
The green-robed Mike's eyes clearly said, "This girl is probably stupid." He began to seriously consider whether the 'Frog God' would mind this.
Elvin had already taken out the brass toy box from the pocket of his hunting suit and opened the lid.
Whoosh …
Little toy soldiers with red paint jumped out of the box like raindrops. They turned into ten human-sized cavalrymen and rushed out of the forest.
Then, a hundred musketeers followed closely behind and formed a formation in the open space.
Although the muskets in their hands were far inferior to sniper rifles like the 'Thorned Golden Rose', they were still alchemy products powered by alchemy stones. Whether it was firing speed or power, they were far superior to ordinary muskets.
Finally, the cannoneers pushed ten bronze cannons in a row and came to the side of the musketeers. Even a Level Six Naval Warship could not compare to this.
With this toy box, Elvin had brought along a powerful private army that was not afraid of casualties at all.
Seeing that the Frog Monsters' charge had been interrupted, Elvin waved his hand and said, "Do it.
"Complete in one step. Crush them for me!"
"Yes, Commander!"
The Red Marshal pulled out his sword and shouted in a monotonous tone:
"Triple Shot, fire!"
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Without any concern for the cavalrymen who were also within the range of fire, the orange-red cannons intertwined with the line of fire and turned into a hot metal storm, tearing everything in a hundred meters in front of them into pieces.
In the loud roar, apart from the dozens of Frog Monsters and the ten cavalrymen, even the sand under the rocky beach was blown up into the sky, not to mention the moss all over the ground.
Then.
Whoosh …
Mud, gravel, grass, and trees, mixed with the severed limbs and blood of the Frog Monsters, fell down like rain.
"Forward!"
Under the command of the Red Marshal, the musketeers equipped their guns with bayonets and marched forward in a neat formation. There were four other green-robed men who were ready to escape by the pond in front of them.
Thud thud thud …
The footsteps fell into their ears, as if they were the footsteps of the devil.
Elvin turned his head to look at the green-robed man, Mike, who had been frozen in place for a long time, and picked his ear:
"What did you say just now?"
Clang!
The pirate's scimitar fell to the ground as his legs went weak. Mike was obviously a person who could see the situation clearly.
He stammered, "No … nothing, Sir, you heard wrong."
"Okay, then tell me, where did your power come from? You don't actually know any transcendent swordsmanship, right? I'm very interested in the 'Frog God' you mentioned. "
As a high-ranking officer of a powerful kingdom, Elvin knew a lot of information that ordinary people could not get their hands on.
In the Old Continent, not to mention the demigods, the major churches of the True Gods would strictly control the Transcendent Stage Four in their own parish.
This was because the Old Continent was the backyard of the Seven Gods. Other than the high-ranking Transcendents who were accepted into the ruling class, even wild Stage Threes were rare.
To existences like gods who stood at the top of the pyramid, they were as eye-catching as the sun in the sky. It was impossible for a demigod that no one knew to randomly appear in the world, let alone in the private grounds of the "Storm Royal Court".
Those common demonized creatures that were equal to rank-2 Transcendent at best were called "messengers". If they were compared to the three rank-4 Children of the Sea God under the command of the Mother of Sea Monsters, it would be easy to tell what kind of garbage the Frog God was.
"Sir, don't kill me, I'll tell you …"
In the time it took to speak, the remaining four green-robed men who were not very good at fighting had all been captured.
Elvin held Olivia's hand and walked to the side of the pond under the escort of six armed mercenaries who stood respectfully at the side.
He waved his hand gently.
The senior official sorcerer's [Revitalizing Aura] stirred the water and sent the frog eggs that imprisoned the missing women to the shore one by one.
Without needing any instructions, a few mercenaries took out their daggers and cut open the frog eggs one by one, releasing a total of twenty missing women.
After a brief inspection, Titus shouted in surprise.
"They're all still alive!"
He placed the sleeping missing women on the shore one by one.
Olivia took a step forward and threw out a moonstone.
Prol —
The clear light sprinkled on everyone's body like water. The strange energy that remained in their bodies was quickly washed away by the Spiritual Vision.
[Gem Witchcraft — Spiritual Purification]
Seeing this scene.
The toy soldiers who did not know what gentleness was tore off their dark green robes and pressed them on the ground. One of the four men raised his head forcefully, revealing a handsome face that Elvin, Olivia, and even the mercenaries were very familiar with.
It should be said that it was really strange that there were people in Khun Sai who did not recognize him.
"Vitas? You, the famous singer of the South Wind Kingdom, are actually in cahoots with them? That means your charm and voice were also bestowed by the 'Frog God'? "
Ignoring Captain Titus's words, the "Dolphin Prince" Vitas looked at Elvin with a face full of anxiety.
"Those are the brides of the 'Frog God', you can't let them leave. You're in trouble, you're in big trouble!"
At the same time.
As the red blood of the giant frog "Oracles" seeped into the ground of the forest along the river network, it was as if a terrible existence was suddenly awakened.
After the earth shook violently.
Whoosh —
The sudden mountain wind blew through the entire forest of frogs, producing a shrill sound that sounded like frogs croaking in their ears.
The next moment.
A heavy pressure instantly enveloped everyone's heart.
