Apocalypse: Resources Consumed by Women Returned Ten Thousandfold - Chapter 180: The Frog Catchers
Chapter 180: Chapter 180: The Frog Catchers
In the forest surrounding Xingfu District!
A few humans.
Are forming teams to search for something—
“Still haven’t found it?”
“Don’t rush! It’s a big forest; finding such a small frog is not easy!”
“But didn’t you awaken your Spiritual Ability and can use Telekinesis for a broader search?”
“Big bro! My Spiritual Ability is only Level 3! The search range of my Telekinesis is just a few meters! The forest is so big, even a hundred of me wouldn’t be enough!”
“Ah! Keep pushing!”
“If we catch that frog, we can receive a year’s worth of survival supplies! The coming year, we won’t have to worry about supplies!”
“There’s also a Top-Grade Spirit Battle Pill! Consuming it can help break through to B-Class!”
…
Similar conversations are happening continuously in the corners of the forest!
Thinking of this bounty, with its extremely rich rewards!
Everyone’s gaze grows increasingly greedy!
Although!
People are also aware—
In this vast, untamed forest!
Finding a frog the size of a palm!
Is akin to finding a needle in a haystack!
But!
Everyone is filled with a stubborn thought—
Since someone eventually finds the needle!
Why can’t that person be me?
Therefore!
The steps of the crowd never cease!
…
However, during this journey!
Various accidents constantly happen—
Attacked by Fierce Beasts!
Bitten by poisonous bugs!
Accidentally falling into Cannibal Flower traps!
Lucky enough to find high-quality Superpower Fruit and simply giving up on the bounty mission!
…
The number of companions continuously decreases!
Some die, some are injured, some voluntarily quit!
For those who remain!
It’s a signal of danger ahead!
But at the same time it represents!
Their chances of success have increased!
“Persistence means victory!”
“We absolutely can’t give up!”
…
Until!
A squad reached a small pond deep in the woods!
Suddenly!
The Inspirer in the team said:
“Found it!”
“What?!”
Upon hearing this!
The crowd quickly gathered around!
“Look! It’s right there!”
“Shh!”
“Be careful!”
“Don’t scare it away!”
…
They cautiously crouched by the pond!
In the middle of the crystal-clear pool!
There’s a huge rock!
Surrounded by clusters of green grass!
And a little frog!
Is leisurely lying on the pointed rock!
It is so ordinary!
Just like a normal frog to the extreme!
However!
In this era of Fierce Beast’s crazy evolution!
Its normalcy is already an anomaly!
…
“Found it! Really found it!”
Seeing it!
People were overjoyed!
Is that a frog?
No, it’s a year’s worth of survival supplies, plus the Top-Grade Spirit Battle Pill that can break through to B-Class!
They wish!
They could jump over and catch it right now!
But!
They all kept their heads, strongly suppressing their inner elation—
Squeezed by the pressure of surrounding people endlessly giving up!
Those who can persist this far!
Are mentally tough!
Won’t act rashly!
…
“Be extremely careful!”
“This frog has Flame Element power; it can cause gigantic area damage!”
“Tie’s ability is Metal transformation, can withstand high temperatures! We’ll hide behind him…”
However!
Just when the leader was arranging tactics for the team!
One person from the team!
Suddenly jumped out!
“Haha! You’re right! I alone can handle this frog!”
“Don’t try to claim the credit!”
Indeed!
The one who jumped out!
Was the burly man with Metal transformation ability!
“Tie! Don’t be impulsive!”
The crowd exclaimed!
But the man had already activated his ability—
Turning his skin into silvery-white metal, shining with luster!
He sprinted towards the pond!
“Little frog! No escape!”
He leaped over!
Agile as a tiger!
He captured the frog in his palm!
“Hahaha! I caught it! I caught…”
The man named Tie raised his arms in cheer!
“Ribbit!”
But!
The frog only made a sound.
Next moment!
A tremendously powerful, suffocating force!
Surged around!
Seeing this!
The team leader shouted:
“Run!”
After saying that!
He had already dashed out like an arrow!
A few quick-witted team members followed in his wake!
But there were still some foolish ones, still lying there with a face full of jealousy:
“Damn! That Tie kid wants to hog it all! That’s not gonna happen…”
However!
The next second!
Boom!
From the mouth of that frog!
A ball of flame shot up like a volcanic eruption!
Igniting the surrounding air!
The flames blossomed like fireworks!
Tie barely had time to scream!
Before he was turned into a puddle of molten iron!
“Ah—”
Accompanied by terrified screams!
Those who failed to dodge in time!
Were also instantly devoured by the flames!
Turned to ashes in an instant!
And all the plants within ten meters turned into charcoal!
Yet, bizarrely!
The water in that small pond was not dried up!
…
“Ribbit!”
The frog jumped back onto the rock, tilting its head and widening its eyes.
“Hiss!”
Seeing this!
Those who had just escaped to a safe distance couldn’t help but gasp!
This frog was too terrifying!
…
But the commotion over there!
Attracted other teams!
“The frog has appeared!”
“It’s definitely over there!”
They all rushed in that direction!
Afraid of missing the opportunity!
…
“Found it! The frog is there!”
A superpower user arrived first!
Spotted the frog from afar!
No choice!
The scorched earth pond!
The giant rock in the pond!
The frog on the giant rock!
Everything was too conspicuous!
Without much thought!
He leaped towards the frog!
But the frog suddenly kicked its legs!
With a splash, it dove into the water!
Causing ripples to spread!
Seeing this!
The superpower user decisively jumped in!
“The frog jumped into the water!”
At this moment!
More superpower users arrived!
Also witnessing this scene!
“Can’t let it escape!”
Everyone, full of bravado, plunged into the pond without hesitation!
Splashing water everywhere!
…
The scene was out of control!
The small pond!
Became a chaotic mud battlefield!
Even several unlucky guys!
Were stepped on at the bottom, unable to escape, drowning alive!
…
At this moment!
Lu Qiang’s team also arrived!
Witnessing this scene!
Lu Qiang frowned tightly:
“The frog is in the water?”
“Of course!”
“They all went down! We should also…”
His companions were also eager to try!
Even ready to jump into the water without a second thought!
But Lu Qiang stopped them and said:
“Don’t be impulsive! That frog isn’t an ordinary fierce beast! Catching it is not that simple!”
Someone protested:
“Damn it if we don’t go! The frog will be caught by someone else!”
But before the words fell!
“Got it!”
Someone shouted!
“Ribbit!”
A frog’s croak!
In the next moment!
The surrounding air seemed to suddenly freeze!
Making it hard to breathe!
Lu Qiang’s expression changed, sensing something was wrong—
Instinctively released his Power of Ice!
Consolidating it into a massive ice shield!
Protecting the teammates beneath!
At the same time!
Boom!
Another massive flame swept all around!
Engulfing the wailing of countless people in the pond!
…
Lu Qiang’s ice shield turned into a puddle of water in an instant!
And evaporated!
But fortunately!
He!
And the teammates he protected!
Were unharmed!
But!
As everyone looked around—
The battlefield was in complete disarray!
The casualties were enormous!
It looked like purgatory!
…
“Hiss!”
Everyone gasped!
Lu Qiang felt a chill in his heart!
Yet couldn’t help but boast:
“Luckily, I’m smarter than most!”
“Otherwise!”
“I’d be charcoal now too!”
