Chapter 1017: Chapter 1116: The God of Toads Chapter 1017: Chapter 1116: The God of Toads “1. As long as you are willing to go to Fate Space in the name of the Toad,
whether you acquire anything or not, the Toad Clan will voluntarily give up the Wetland Campaign.
If you return successfully, you will get a chance at a common ‘Watching the Wall’ and we will ensure your safe return to the Knight Regiment.
2. If you can obtain an item that effectively alleviates lethargy and hand it over to me,
I will gift you the medium-sized land deed of [Lake Trasimeno-Toad Palace] and am willing to maintain a long-term partnership with you… If the items brought back exceed my expectations, you will receive even better rewards.”
These were the early conditions set by the Toad Ancestor.
Nowadays, the items Han Dong brought back will surely satisfy the second condition, but whether they exceed expectations still depends on the Toad Ancestor’s stance.
As long as the second condition is met, Han Dong is already very satisfied.
The deepest part of the labyrinth – [Place of Sleep]
This is a special space dedicated to the Toad Ancestor’s slumber.
Just by setting foot in it, one could feel a cool breeze that brings clarity to the mind.
[Place of Sleep] is designed like a massive well-like abyss, with a horizontal width (well mouth diameter) of about five hundred meters, and its depth is immeasurable.
In front of Han Dong and the others, there was only a suspended horizontal broken bridge for walking, which just extended to the central position of the well mouth’s surface.
Besides this, there were no other paths, nor a way found to delve into the lower end of the [Place of Sleep].
This is the Toad Ancestor’s habitat, and even the simplest act of walking here seemed extremely difficult.
Abe, with the epic equipment – ‘Lu Wu Finger’ he had just obtained, wrapped his body with a ring of divine animal nature, making his way alone on the stone bridge.
Maritzis maintained the most reverent posture, kneeling on the ground the entire way, slowly moving forward with her wet body carried by the flow of water.
Behind Dumps, a throne emerged, allowing him to walk here at a normal pace.
Han Dong gently pulled on Mia’s hand, helping her towards the end of the stone bridge.
“Don’t look down, although the Toad Ancestor has fully retracted the ‘contaminants’, the Toad Ancestor itself, for our brains, is too much to bear.
That is also why the Toad Ancestor has asked us to wait on the broken bridge, the Toad Ancestor residing in the depths would likely only reveal a small part to meet with us.”
Han Dong reminded his teammates not to look down, though he himself leaned out and took a glance at the lower end of the [Place of Sleep].
A strong and forceful spatial suction immediately acted upon his entire body.
However, it was quickly restrained by the domain suppression Han Dong released, and through the Demon Eye, he saw part of the situation at the lower end.
“There are other entrances here… Are we just standing on the very surface of the ‘well’?”
Looking down,
Han Dong noticed that at the lower end of the [Place of Sleep], the cave avoidance was equipped with a large number of circular steps and entrances that allowed the passage of a single person.
One by one, ‘Heretics’ wrapped in dark green robes were walking between the circular steps, each holding hexagonal basins full of clear water in their hands, spaced five meters apart from one another, descending in unison.
It was at this moment.
Maritzis reminded them, “We just need to wait here… Below is merely the exclusive passageway for ‘Cleansers’.
Because of the thing you gave that awakened the Toad Ancestor early, hundreds of years of sleep has not only led to a lot of dirt accumulating on the surface but also filled the insides with lethargic substances from sleep.
The ‘Cleansers’ need to bring in the pure deep-sea water to clean the Toad Ancestor both inside and out.
Once the cleansing is complete, the Toad Ancestor will come up to meet us.”
Since they needed to wait here for the Toad Ancestor to cleanse its body, Han Dong was also curious about something:
“Miss Mary, the Toad Ancestor calls the ‘Upper Old King’ from the Deep Sea its ‘master’. Could their relationship be…”
Maritzis seemed to know what Han Dong wanted to ask, “It is not as you imagine; the relationship between Toad Ancestor and the Deep Sea is merely ‘affiliated’ and not ‘directly subordinate’.
The Toad Ancestor is not bound much by the Deep Sea.
At the same time, the Toad Ancestor is extremely powerful and, by being attached to the Deep Sea, still receives regular gifts from it.
For instance, these pure seawaters from the Deep Sea can cleanse the Toad Ancestor of all impurities inside and outside its body, even including the negative impurities compacted in its spirit during its slumber.”
“I see.”
“We should not communicate further but wait in the most devout state for the Toad Ancestor’s descent.”
Maritzis was in an extremely humble yet excited state, her body kneeling on the ground, leaking water at a rate of 1L/min.
About an hour passed.
The trembling of the earth gradually ceased, and the ‘Water’ Believers responsible for the transportation left one by one.
Everyone could distinctly feel something rising from the bottom of the well-like Cave… accompanied by a sensation of space expanding.
The whole Cave was enlarging to accommodate the ‘awakening’ King.
The intense pressure and weightlessness made everyone’s consciousness completely fade in the short term, their vision going dark.
When consciousness returned and they opened their eyes again.
The massive head of a titanic creature appeared in front of the broken bridge, and that was just the upper part of its head.
The Cave corresponding to the ‘Place of Sleep’ had undergone corresponding changes.
The entire Cave was adapting to the Toad Ancestor’s body size, transforming into a conical pillar-like structure to accommodate the Toad Ancestor’s ‘unfolding’ body… In its state of slumber, the Toad Ancestor folds its body through ‘Dimensional Folding.’
On the day of awakening, the Toad Ancestor’s body would gradually unfold, thereby triggering intense earthquakes across the Australian continent.
This was a swollen, symmetrical dark head, the surface of the head covered with hair as thick as Fingers,
On the insides of two ear-like structures similar to bat ears, strange ‘murals’ were etched, depicting parts of the slumbering world, changing with the Toad Ancestor’s thoughts,
Its nose, like a rising Hill, could open to the left and right, shooting out countless tongues capable of manipulating space, casting magic, sensing objects, or Devouring external things,
Just as the Toad Ancestor had said, It had reined in as much ‘Contamination’ and ‘Pressure’ as possible.
Otherwise, such a close direct gaze would have led the squad members to instant degradation.
From within the fully opened nostrils, numerous plump Tentacles writhed wildly in the air, emitting waves of high-pitched sounds… seemingly the Toad Ancestor’s unique Laughter, expressing Its joyful mood.
To avoid the corruptive influence of speech.
One of the Tentacles slowly transformed into a Human Form in the air, using the language of humans to communicate with Han Dong and the others… This could be considered a voluntary step down in status, showing that the Toad Ancestor was quite happy and valued this negotiation greatly.
The tip of the Tentacle slowly morphed into a fat, bald man, landing before the group.
“The items you’ve brought back are interesting… they greatly restrain the ‘Fatigue Shackles’ that limit me.
As a reward, the Land Deed along with its holder, are given to you.
Maritzis, as a Demon with certain human characteristics, should serve well as a ‘Connection Point’ between you and N’Kai.”
A moist parchment slowly oozed out of the bald man’s body, corresponding to a mid-sized Land Deed of the marsh.
There was no need for Han Dong to make a request; right at the start, Maritzis was sold by the Toad Ancestor.
However.
The sold Maritzis was not unhappy, but rather showed a very rare, happy smile.
“Additionally, the items you’ve brought back have exceeded my expectations… considering your Special Traits and deficiencies, a book will be gifted to you as an ‘extra reward’.”
