Chapter 849: Chapter 849 Ideas Chapter 849: Chapter 849 Ideas âA âmedium-sized land deedâ can easily cover a small to medium-sized human city, and even allows for layered configurations within the land deed area through its spatial intervention abilities.â
âFor instance, Perugia City is divided into an artistic outer layer, a filthy inner layer, and a junkyardâthree distinct spatial layersâseparated by a unique grey substance in coordination with the spatial restrictions of the land deed. Without finding the entry and exit points, even someone skilled in spatial ability couldnât force their way through.â
âEven Knight Charlie, who can slay âbunchesâ of demons, is unable to break through the spatial grey matter.â
[Toad Palace]
âThese toads are inherently associated with âspace devouringâ.â
âIn the wetlands, there are a great number of âtoad statuesâ set up to cover space, and the giant toads in the lakes can swallow a whole Knight Regiment into an independent space in a single gulp.â
âThis indicates that the offspring, worshippers, and derivative creatures of the Toad Ancestor all possess certain spatial special traits.â
âMoreover, according to Dumpsâs speculation, this Lord might also control a Chaos Treasure that regulates space.â
[Toad Palace] is feared to be even more complex than Perugia City.â
âWhen a three hundred-strong Knight troop approached Toad Palace under the lead of [Dark Eye. Macefield]ââ
Boom! Boom! Boom!
âThere was no need to push the door or trigger any mechanism.â
âSeemingly sensing the arrival of âguests,â the doors of Toad Palace opened inwards on their own.â
âThe floor of the great hall was made of a single flawless piece of giant black crystal, at least as large as the Colosseum.â
âEvery five meters along the hallâs walls, there were candelabras brimming with Toad Oil, the warm yellow flames illuminating the place.â
âBut what was most notable was a âGiant Toad Imageâ situated at the depth of the hall.â
âThe âprotrusionsâ on the toadâs head were represented with a multitude of precious gems, its eyeballs crafted from the deepest black diamonds,â
âIts swollen, greasy giant body peppered with numerous tumor-like bumps, continuously oozing Toad Oil,â
âA pair of Bat Wings growing on its back that could not possibly support its immense body,â
âIts left hand holding a mountainous pile of skulls, and its right hand carrying a bizarre Staff.â
âGazing at this Toad Statue could potentially lead to Toad Oil seeping into the brain, inviting a hard-to-remove âToad Curse.â
âThe experienced knights immediately set their âprotective gogglesâ to maximum filtration to perceive the surroundings as much as possible through non-visual senses.â
âThis isâŠâ
Han Dong stealthily glanced at the statue while blending into the squad.
He couldnât match what he unexpectedly saw of the [Toad Ancestor]⊠That being covered in black hair was several times larger even in size than this statue.â
At that moment, Dumpsâs Fingers landed on Han Dongâs neck, providing a light massage and nerve stimulation which caused Han Dongâs head to automatically bow, signaling him not to stare at the statue for long.â
âYouâve already been influenced by [Toad Ancestor]
Even with your head protection, you should still be cautious⊠The vomiting symptoms you showed earlier are a foreboding sign. The accumulation of intangible effects might cause you to fall into the Toad Abyss.
This indeed is a statue of the King, the Toad Ancestor envisioned and beautified in the minds of the âbelievers.'â
âThis is beautified?â
âAt least it allows for a certain âpostureâ to be represented in statue form, doesnât it?
The true Toad Ancestor, even with your [Demon Eye], youâd have a hard time seeing clearly, right? Just getting a glimpse of the distorted hairs on Its body is difficult enough, let alone trying to peer through the hair to see the indescribable Toad form.
Besides, according to information from Mother, the [Toad Ancestor] has at least two incarnations.
The one you saw is just one of them; the other might look like this⊠Compared to the other Old Kings, such an image is quite beautiful already.â
âMy heavens, Dumps, you have a taste for this?â
âDo not judge these ancient beings with primitive beauty using the narrow aesthetic standards of humankind.
âOf course, as a human, I canât accept that⊠However, if giving the Toad Ancestor a massage would grant me the opportunity for âObservation-of-Wall,â I wouldnât be picky.â
âWow⊠So thatâs the kind of person you are!â
Han Dong glanced at the swelling toad statue that was continuously oozing oil and had to give Dumps a thumbs up⊠That was way more than Mr. Ollie had to deal with, no matter how many.
However, one term that Dumps mentioned also piqued Han Dongâs interest.
âBy the way, what is âObservation-of-Wallâ?â
âItâs one of the Toad Demonsâ special traits⊠Just like Blood Brew.
However, Observation-of-Wall is even more unique and applicable to any race, and it comes without any side effects⊠The âToad Clothesâ peeled off from pure-blooded Toad Demons with Ancestor Bodies and above can sell for a high price outside the city.â
âToad Skin? So thatâs what it means?â
Han Dong recalled the dark cave his consciousness reached when the Little Demon Eye was activated.
Hundreds of meters of rock strata perfectly matched with a kind of black toad skin.
The protrusions of the stone and the dotted textures of the toad skin formed a bizarre tapestry⊠Han Dong even saw a door on the surface of the wall, a door leading to the Truth.
âYes, the descendants with the bloodline of the Toad Ancestor shed their skin periodically, measured in years.
This âToad Clothesâ contains the cosmic truths comprehended by the Toad Demons over years, even decades.
The form of records of these comprehensions are the protrusions and lines on the surface of the toad skin.
The shed âToad Clothesâ will naturally adhere to the walls, forming a surface that can help others in Comprehension of Truth.
The truth comprehended by different owners of the âToad Clothesâ varies⊠Toad Clothes from Mythic Bodies are highly valuable and can even lead to our breakthrough.â
âIf itâs âToad Clothesâ shed by the Toad AncestorâŠâ
Dumps also froze, âYou⊠just now during the successful connection, did you see it?â
âYes, a black wall with the trait of being fluid, I saw a door on it.â
Speaking of this, Dumps became very serious and intensified the force of his finger massage as he spoke of something very important.
âBased on a comprehensive assessment of Perugia Cityâs military strength, if you were to initiate a âLand Deed War,â could you muster an equivalent force?â
â⊠Dumps, didnât you say before that there was a big problem with the Toad Ancestor? Yet youâre still thinking of starting a war?â
âA âLand Deed Warâ is protected by absolute rules, with a higher level of specificity than the agreements the Knight Regiment signs with Demons in the [Battle Agreement]⊠As long as we find the right opportunity to initiate the Land Deed War, even the Toad Ancestor cannot intervene.
After the war, if the Toad Ancestor decides to spare no expense to take our lives, even if Han Dong your side canât handle it, [Mother] will also come to help.
This is a rare opportunity, as even those with the Ancestor Return Body who carry the blood of the Toad Ancestor cannot possibly get an Observation-of-Wall opportunity from the Toad Ancestor before making major contributions.
In short, if we find the right opportunity to start the war⊠Iâve got your back!
Also, give Abe and Mia advanced notice to get prepared.â
âGot it.â
During the brief exchange between the two.
With [Bard-Meridis] at the forefront, combined with the various remote reconnaissance methods provided by the knights, they had completed the search of the Toad Palaceâs main hall, found no danger.
As the knights entered.
The hundred-ton Toad Palace Stone Door slammed shut, and black hairs began to grow on the door. Some kind of unbreakable Seal trapped everyone inside.
To get out, they had to win the battle for this area of the Toad Palace.
As all the armed members kept an eye on every corner of the Toad Palace, ready to confront any Toad Demons that might emerge from the shadows.
The hall remained deathly quiet, with not even a trace of Demon Breath escaping⊠as if the master of the Toad Palace wanted to play a game with the knights.
