382 Divine Jade

Ten hours ago, at the West entrance of Wailing Grotto.

Dwarf Contract Summoner, Alex and a main tank Human Warrior dressed in golden heavy armor stood side by side at the entrance.

"Sword Heart, you're sure Scarab King will respawn here?"

"Uh huh."

"Then we'll have to give it a go no matter what."

"I know the way, follow me."

The main tank by the name of Sword Heart led the way into the grotto, with Alex following closely behind.

The No. 1 Summoner of the Southern Continent — Alex!

The No.1 of the Top Ten main tanks in Pantheon — Amber Sword Heart!

...

Seven hours ago, at the East entrance of Wailing Grotto.

Not Gray Wolf and Call Me Red Wolf walked into the grotto.

"Wifey, I heard the Wailing Grotto map is fairly complicated. Once lost, it's common to be stuck here up to two weeks. What are we doing here?"

"Shut up,"

Red Wolf glared at Gray Wolf so much so Gray Wolf shut his trap out of fear.

...

Deep inside Wailing Grotto, in Frogmen Tribe.

"Let's collaborate!"

Windless Heavenly Robe walked into a Tailor's Shop and told Li Yi.

Although his equipment was of the miscellaneous sort picked up from all kind of classes and levels, his skills were unquestionable. The earlier ten frogmen out there died by his hands.

Rare undead such as Headless Horseman, Bagradin, could be summoned by Windless Heavenly Robe.

"Let's collaborate and take down Frog Queen."

"No problem," Li Yi readily answered. However, Windless Heavenly Robe's next words left him at the brink of collapse.

"I'm sure that by killing Frog Queen, I'll definitely be able to dig up an orange quality Frogman's Eye."

At the end of the day, this guy still firmly believed the existence of an orange-colored quest.

Li Yi helplessly reminded him, "Brother, that quest's fake. Even if you were to kill Frog Queen, there's no such thing as an orange Frogman's Eye."

Windless Heavenly Robe waved his arm, "Say no more. How do we know unless we try it out?"

Next, Windless Heavenly Robe explained to Li Yi what were Frog Queen's strengths.

The way Frog Queen attacked was different from regular Frogmen. Not only was it proficient in AoE Black Magic, but it also has a Herculean debuff, called Damage Restraint. No matter the number of attackers, only the damage dealt by the player with the highest Aggro to Frog Queen would be affected. Frog Queen would be unaffected no matter how high the damage caused by other players.

In other words, it did not make much of a difference whether it was a solo or a party up against Frog Queen.

Windless Heavenly Robe came up with a simple plan. He was to go against Frog Queen while Li Yi focused on dealing with the frogmen underlings summoned by Frog Queen.

"Frog Queen is a Level 80 boss, with 10,000,000 HP. Its ATK can be hectic but I'll be Level 70 soon. I'll be able to defeat it once I switch to my Level 70 equipment."

Li Yi smiled, "Clearing the underlings' a cinch, as long as you're good to go."

"Ah right, what's your current level? What's your equipment like?" It suddenly struck Windless Heavenly Robe to ask about Li Yi's level and equipment. With Li Yi's double layer protection from Trickery Ring and Divine Looking Glass, his equipment was no longer visible to any players.

"My level and equipment are higher than yours by just a tad. I should have no issues facing twenty over frogmen."

With that, Windless Heavenly Robe was able to put aside his concern.

Li Yi sent Windless Heavenly Robe a party invite, to which the latter chose to accept.

In order to prove his abilities, Li Yi walked out Tailor's Shop and found a wandering frogman to attack.

Li Yi's continuous usage of Repelling Arrow Skill and Frost Trap had the frogman retreating backward and frozen until it breathed its last. It did not even come close to Li Yi.

Li Yi never moved an inch from the beginning to the end.

Windless Heavenly Robe looked at Li Yi with his jaw dropped.

He may be ignorant towards the continental trends, but a year of battling frogmen had honed his skills to the next level. He has an eye to tell whether a person has technique or not. 

"Let's be friends," Windless Heavenly Robe sent a friend request to Li Yi. Li Yi happily accepted.

"There's a lot of frogmen guarding in the bedroom chambers of Frog Queen, how do we take care of this?"

Windless Heavenly Robe shook his head, "I can't make it to the bedroom. These Frogman Guards will attack once they see me. There's only one way to get close to Frog Queen, like today, when it pays a visit to Master Abu."

"Wait for me here. I'll take a look,"

Li Yi stored his orange bow. Windless Heavenly Robe's Transformed State may be ineffective towards Frogman Guards but his Transformed State did not have this problem.

The longer he remained in Transformed State, the more Li Yi felt there was something more here.

Windless Heavenly Robe dangled his staff, "I'm heading off to level up to 70. I should be done within two hours."

The two separated and Li Yi went to Frog Queen's bedroom.

Frogman Quartermaster did not have any more quests for him to do but Li Yi was delighted to find that the Frogmen Guards were no longer blocking him from entering into the bedroom.

Li Yi walked straight ahead, past the formation of Frogman Guards and into the bedroom.

Frog Queen was lying on a little jade bed. Its nose was blowing bubbles. It was in deep sleep..

Li Yi took a look around and noticed there were not any Frogman Guards beside it.

Could he steal Bloody Pearl then?

Li Yi drank a bottle of Invisibility Potion before pacing towards Frog Queen.

Well, whether he could or not would depend on his attempt.

As he drew closer to Bloody Pearl, the orange bow in his backpack was making tinkling sounds. Bloody Pearl was experiencing the same phenomenon, as it was vibrating. It was vibrating so strongly that Frog Queen was towed by the motion.

Li Yi quickly extended his arm and was about to grab Bloody Pearl when Frog Queen said, "Ada, how long have you come into this world?"

Li Yi was not in the mood to answer, seeing the position he was in. He grabbed onto Bloody Pearl and gave it a strong tug. Instead, the force hurled Frog Queen to the ground.

Bloody Pearl did not come off, albeit Frog Queen did...

"Ada, how dare you!" Frog Queen looked at Li Yi with fury.

It was then Li Yi found out that Invisibility Potion was no use against Frog Queen.

Ada was the name of Li Yi transformed into a frogman.

"Your Highness, I saw that your clothes were dirty and tried to rub it off for you. I must have used too much force."

Seeing the name on Frog Queen's head had not turned red, Li Yi's mind was still at ease. He made up a story since no harm could come from a bluff. 

Li Yi originally made plans to flee but Frog Queen nodded upon hearing his story and hopped back onto the bed.

It looked like rumors of the frogmen's low IQ rang true...

"Ada, you hadn't answered me."

Li Yi replied, "180 days."

"Tell me, why do you think we're in this world?"

Li Yi was dumbfounded by Frog Queen's words.

Was this coming from the same low IQ frogman?

How was he supposed to answer? That they were all monsters and the purpose of coming to this world was to be killed?

And even if he were to answer this, could it understand?

"I don't know," Li Yi gave a simple answer.

"Apart from Master Abu and I, many of our people have died and lived, lived and died, over and over again, never-ending..."

Li Yi was puzzled after witnessing Frog Queen pouring out her grievance.

He knew that God-tiered NPCs had high IQ but how high could a Level 80 frogman boss be? This was out of character...

"I know!"

Just as Li Yi found himself in a daze, Hunter Goddess' voice spoke.

"That Bloody Pearl is a Divine Jade!"

"What's a Divine Jade?"

"Since ancient times, there's a divine equipment between the heaven and the earth that could refine anything imaginable, from a blade of grass, a bug to an unrelinquishable Superior God, Ruler God. The Divine Jade on Frog Queen's head is made out of gods using the ancient divine equipment and refined into a Divine Soul Jade."

Made out of gods?

Li Yi was shocked.

"The Divine Soul Jade is so powerful, it contains Divine Power and partial memory of gods. As long as you're able to retrieve the Divine Jade for my absorption, I have a feeling that I'll be able to break the seal on Wrath of the Stars."

Divine Soul Jade!

It was no wonder the IQ of this Frog Queen was inconsistent. It must be under the influence of the Divine Jade.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

"Your Highness, where did that pearl on your head come from?"

Li Yi wanted to ascertain if the Divine Jade on Frog Queen's head would respawn with it. If it did, then he would obtain one from each respawn.

Frog Queen touched the pearl before responding, "I found it around the snake area. This pearl is peculiar as if it has a life of its own..."

"Ada."

Frog Queen took out a piece of bark and handed it over to Li Yi. It was a letter in frogmen world.

"Assist me in passing this letter to Master Abu."

Ding!

[You've received Frog Queen's quest to send a letter.]

[Quest name: Frog Queen's friendship]

[Quest content: Hand the bark letter to Master Abu in Tailor's Shop]

[Quest difficulty: D class]

[Quest reward: 50,000 EXP, 10 Froggie Currency, activation of Reputation in Frogmen Tribe and 100 points of Frog Queen's Affinity.]

...

Prolonged Transformed State has its perks.

Li Yi suddenly saw the light and abruptly ceased all qualms in running errand quests...

"It's been a while since I met with Master Abu. It was the only frogman that came with me into this world. I miss it," Frog Queen's face looked worried.

"Alright, I'll go right away."

Li Yi hoppity-hopped out of the bedroom.

Although his Transformed State was almost over, he was confident that as long as he was here on quests, his state could be prolonged.

By earning Worship of the Frogmen Tribe!

"Heavenly Robe, how long does it take for Master Abu to respawn?" Li Yi sent a message to Windless Heavenly Robe.

"Five hours, at most. It will respawn."

Li Yi let out a long sigh of relief. He was lucky it was within the span of his Transformed State.

"Where are you leveling up?" Li Yi asked.

"North-west corner of Snake area. The coordinates are 2311111:2331114. It's unlimited respawn of patched snakes here."

"Unlimited respawn?" Li Yi was gobsmacked.

"Yeap."

"Wait for me!"

Li Yi's spirits were lifted as he ran towards the coordinates...

There was still five hours until Master Abu respawned. With so much time, he might as well spend his time at an unlimited respawn spot!

Li Yi was overcome with euphoria.
