About a mile from the city fortress, there is a sizable lake with a garden of grass and several large trees surrounding it.
"That monster should be in this lake." Yi Yun spoke as he and his family arrived at the garden surrounding the lake.
This lake is the first location that QUEST has shown.
Here there is a frog monster called Poison Purple Frog. And it was the frog monster that had injured the friend of the man who first asked Yi Yun for help.
Judging by the description of the woman who was hit by the poison, Yi Yun estimated that the frog should only be a level one monster. However, according to what Yi Yun knew, such kind of monsters usually had several swarms.
The woman who was poisoned may have only encountered one frog because she was attacked near the city fortress.
When traveling, the frog may go alone. But in the nest, there may be a lot of them.
"There might be quite a number of them. Well, it's also good to raise our level.
By the way, I'm going to go near the lake to lure the monsters, and you guys are hiding behind those trees.
Once they appear, you can unleash surprise attacks. I'm sure we can kill some of them right away." Yi Yun spoke to his family.
"Alright, but you have to be careful." Yi Yun's mother replied.
"Mn, don't worry. I'm a warrior, fighting on the front lines is the biggest advantage I have."
After saying that, Yi Yun immediately walked casually towards the lake, while the women moved towards several trees large enough to hide.
....
Frogs are both land and water animals. Although they occasionally enter the water, they usually only live in shallow water.
In this lake, they must be not far from the edge of the lake.
As long as Yi Yun was there, he would definitely attract the attention of the frogs.
When Yi Yun arrived at the shore of the lake, he even took provocative action by throwing a few stones into the lake.
Yi Yun originally thought it would take some time before the frogs appeared. However, when he had just walked a little over the water by the lake.
Shua... Shua... Shua...
Several long purple tongues suddenly shot out of the lake and charged straight at him.
Seeing that, Yi Yun who was already on alert immediately jumped back.
Whooss... Whooss... Whooss...
Just as Yi Yun jumped, about twenty purple frogs that looked as big as goats also jumped out of the lake.
The three frogs even jumped high enough that they immediately arrived in front of Yi Yun who was still midair.
Yi Yun was not afraid of those frogs that could only attack with their tongues.
Seeing that they were already in front of him, Yi Yun immediately took out a large sword and swung it at them.
Whooss...
As a warrior wielding a large sword, Yi Yun's greatest advantage was his attack power.
The frogs stuck out their tongues at him, but only because of the air wave from Yi Yun's great sword strike, instantly caused their long tongues to be swept back into their mouths.
Bam... Bam... Bam...
They couldn't avoid Yi Yun's great sword while they were in midair.
One of the frogs was immediately hit by Yi Yun's great sword, which then sent it flung towards the two frogs beside it.
Thud...
The three frogs finally fell quite hard on the ground.
Yi Yun did not chase the fallen frogs because right after they fell, a lump of earth that looked the size of a container truck suddenly appeared above them.
The lump of earth seemed to be enveloped in a gray aura. As the gray aura disappeared, the lump of earth that was above the air immediately fell very violently towards the three frogs who were still lying on the ground.
Bam...
The three frogs were finally buried directly under the lump of earth.
Six milky white lights then shot out from within the lump of earth and flew towards Yi Yun and the other direction where Su Wuyao was hiding.
Yi Yun, who already knew the results, paid no attention to it.
After landing on the ground, Yi Yun immediately lunged at the other frogs that had just landed.
Borrowing the momentum of his previous victory, Yi Yun immediately attacked the remaining frogs at full force.
Whooss...
Yi Yun once again swung his great sword, and this time he managed to throw five frogs into the air.
Shua... Shua... Shua...
Five arrows suddenly shot out from afar at an unimaginable speed.
Piercing... Piercing... Piercing...
Even frogs that were good at jumping would not be able to dodge the arrows when they were in the air. All of the arrows pierced straight into their bodies. It stuck right into their chests, causing their bodies to fall in an instant, while their bodies also gave off a milky white light which half of the light then flew towards Yi Yun.
Every monster in this game world had some kind of core in their body, and as long as that core was destroyed, even if they weren't injured, they would still die right then and there.
....
Other frogs that saw two surprise attacks coming in a row towards them began to realize that there were other enemies hiding.
Because of that, half of the frogs that attacked Yi Yun finally chose to separate themselves before heading towards the garden where the attack originated.
The frogs seemed to be aware that the enemy might be hiding behind a tree. Therefore, when they arrived in front of the first tree, they immediately jumped behind the tree.
Unfortunately they didn't find anyone.
However, just as they turned to head towards another tree, a black shadow suddenly fell from the top of the tree at an unimaginable speed.
Whooss...
Piercing...
Yi Yun's mother's sword stabbed directly into the back of one of the frogs to the point that it pierced his chest.
Yi Yun's mother immediately drew her sword from the frog's body then slashed it towards the neck of the frog beside the frog she was stabbing.
The other frogs that saw the enemy's attack finally returned to attack them, quickly jumping high back.
They also opened their mouths, preparing to attack in case Yi Yun's mother attacked them one more time.
Surprisingly enough, Yi Yun's mother had actually lunged at them while they were in the air.
The frog monsters who saw that, immediately tried to stick out their tongues.
However, before they could get their tongues out, gray energy that had come out of nowhere suddenly enveloped their bodies. And when that happened, the frog monsters found that their bodies actually couldn't move anymore. The gray energy was like a chain locking their bodies.
Shua...
When Yi Yun's mother arrived in front of them, she immediately slashed her sword towards all the frog monsters that couldn't move their bodies anymore.
What made the frogs even more in a trance were several arrows that had suddenly shot up behind them.
Their mouths were closed while their eyes were wide open as swords slashed through their necks while arrows pierced their backs.
....
After slaughtering the frogs, Elly, Su Wuyao, and Yi Yun's mother were no longer hiding.
They lunged at the remaining toad monsters, who were currently fighting Yi Yun alone.
With the four of them working together, they could easily kill the remains of the frogs, which actually only had five left.
....
"This is very easy." Said Elly when they gathered.
"Well, this is just a level one monster. The higher the level of the monsters, the smarter they will be. Especially boss monsters, even your program will seem very easy." Yi Yun replied.
"Is that so? You just haven't tried the hardest program I've created." Elly looked displeased when she heard Yi Yun's words.
"How can programs compare to real intelligence."
"..."
"Enough, enough, you two don't fight." Yi Yun's mother immediately rebuked them when she saw that they wanted to fight.
Since childhood, these siblings have always fought. Yi Yun's mother had always wondered if it was because they had different fathers. But luckily she didn't feel any hatred between them all this time.
....
Being reprimanded by their mother, none of the siblings dared to continue.
After picking up a piece of frog meat and putting it in his game inventory, Yi Yun led his family to the next location.
