After communicating with Anjia.

Fang Hao ordered the army to continue advancing.

Although they had not learned specific information about the enemy, they knew their target was the creatures camouflaged as boulders.

No matter how strong these creatures were, under the onslaught of tens of thousands of undead, even a pool of water would be drained dry.

Fang Hao, accompanied by Anjia, mounted the Bone Dragon.

They once again soared above the pool of water.

“Those boulders.” From the back of the dragon, Fang Hao pointed towards the strange stones below, which were covered in fungi.

The strange stones varied in size, the largest being five to six meters long, and the smallest only the size of an ordinary stone.

“I don’t see anything unusual.” Anjia, looking down at the strange stones, couldn’t detect anything abnormal.

However, just as her words fell.

Whoosh!

A crimson tongue shot up from below, enveloping the ribcage of the Bone Dragon, attempting to pull it into its mouth.

“Damn, trying to eat the Bone Dragon, aren’t you afraid you’ll burst!” Fang Hao cursed inwardly.

Three or four more tongues sprang out, attacking the airborne Bone Dragon.

The Bone Dragon, gigantic in size, was not a mere match for the Skeleton Giant Bats.

Facing the entangling tongues, it merely wobbled a bit and then quicky dragged the strange stones along the ground below.

The massive jaws parted wide, revealing the name of the creature to Fang Hao.

Speckled Giant Toad (Tier 7)

So, it was a toad. No wonder the tongue was so long.

Seeing that the giant toads below were not letting go, Fang Hao instructed:

“Dragon Breath.”

The Bone Dragon dived, swooping down and unleashing a deadly breath into the mouth of the toad attempting to pull it in.

A black energy beam directly poured into the giant toad’s mouth.

The giant toad’s body rapidly inflated and exploded with a bang, scattering bones and flesh all around.

No good.

This way, all their bones would be blown away. “Don’t exhale into their mouths, breathe over all the strange stones around the pond,” Fang Hao ordered.

Several Bone Dragons began circling in the sky, their deadly breaths starting to clear the giant toads disguised as stones.

Facing Tier 10 Bone Dragons, the giant toads’ tongue attacks were utterly ineffective.

The giant toads, dragged around the ground by the Bone Dragons, presented a terribly disheveled sight.

The Speckled Toads, with their grey skin, weren’t actual stones but simply camouflaged as such.

Engulfed by the fatal breath, their flesh melted and fell off, and even the surrounding vegetation quickly wilted.

Once the Bone Dragons had almost finished cleaning up, the skeleton infantry began their task, clearing the remaining giant toads around the pond.

“Fang Hao, do you think we can eat the mushrooms on the backs of these giant toads? They don’t seem poisonous,” Anjia said, stepping on a dead giant toad and studying its mushrooms.

Fang Hao jumped down from the Bone Dragon, glancing at her, “Have I mistreated you? Or have I starved you? Do you really need to research whether the mushrooms are poisonous or not?”

There was no shortage of food in their territory, in fact, one could say it was surplus.

There were hardly any living people in Fang Hao’s main city now, so food was the least of their worries.

“But what if we’ve discovered a new ingredient?

“Forget it, leave such a formidable task to Eira,” Fang Hao said.

“That works too, shall we gather some for Eira to take back?”

“No! leave the living people of the territory alone.”

“Uh, okay, then I’ll return to the fight.”

The battle was still ongoing.

One after another, Speckled Giant Toads leaped out of the pool, battling with the undead army surrounding them.

There were simply too many undead.

Even though the Speckled Giant Toads could drag ordinary undead skeletons into their mouths.

But their overwhelming numbers, dense without a single gap, could choke all of them to death.

Furthermore, the Undead warriors were not just waiting to die. They were carrying out their orders to kill, fearlessly.

The Giant Toad’s most significant advantage was stealth. It depended on camouflage, striking its prey by surprise.

However, if an adversary was prepared, or if the enemy was much stronger than the Giant Toad, the attacks would seem monotonous.

The Giant Toad had shifted from fighting on the pond’s edge to shrinking back into the water, making its last stand.

Arrows and magic missiles were ceaselessly shot into the pond.

The lifeless body of the Giant Toad started to surface.

The pond had become a sanctuary for the Giant Toad, greatly prolonging the duration of the battle.

The fight lasted more than two hours.

And was finally drawing to a close.

“Clean up the battlefield, pick up all the fallen equipment, gather the Giant Toad’s corpses, and look for treasure chests,” Fang Hao began giving out orders for the final operation.

This pond had been occupied by the Giant Toad.

Various beasts and Warcrafts could still be seen while they continued their journey.

In this place, in this pond area, no insect chirps or birdcalls could be heard. It was this environment that led to the proliferation of so many Giant Toads. The Undead army dispersed, collecting all their fallen comrades’ weaponry and equipment. The Giant Toad’s bodies were also loaded onto carts, awaiting transport back.

After a thorough search, the battlefield cleanup was completed, but not one skeleton had brought back a treasure chest.

What’s going on?

This isn’t right.

The entire battlefield had been covered, so many skeletons were searching, the chances of any area being overlooked were slim.

In the end, Fang Hao’s gaze fell onto the location of the central pond.

If anything was missed by the Skeleton soldiers, it would surely be at the bottom of this pond.

“Go, some of you go down and see if there are any valuables”, Fang Hao instructed a nearby skeleton.

Following commands, the skeleton plunged directly into the water.

In no time, some severed seagrass floated to the surface, then a gold treasure chest bobbed up.

It was indeed underwater.

Once the chest was reeled in, Fang Hao immediately chose to open it.

Well, that’s something, a Giant Toad armor set.

An armor set usually comes with set attribute bonuses, but the late appearance of this one left Fang Hao somewhat unsatisfied.

Close combat foot soldiers had already replaced their leather armor with metallic ones, greatly enhancing their survivability on the battlefield. Mages had their Mage robes, only the Skeleton archers didn’t have specific attribute-enhancing armor.

He now only hoped that if there were set attributes, they would cater to archer classes.

If not considered as a set and not having unique attributes.

Then this set of gear is of no use to Fang Hao.
