Chapter 172 - Chapter 172 Man-Made Monsters

The infusion of bottle after bottle of Regeneration Potions allowed the massive wound on Quaiesse's chest to begin to heal, but the injuries were simply too severe. With the slow healing effect of the Regeneration Potions alone, Quaiesse would likely die before his injuries could recover.

Minori had no choice but to cast "Heavy Wound Healing" magic, forcibly stabilizing the opponent's aura with the combined effect of the potion and magic.

Quaiesse's originally blurred consciousness began to clear under the intense pain.

Am I resurrected?

The thought flashed through his mind.

Quaiesse lifted his heavy eyelids and opened his deep red eyes, but what came into view was not a familiar figure, but Minori, who filled him with surprise and anger.

His already pale face turned even paler and uglier.

"Ss..." As soon as Quaiesse opened his mouth, blood gushed out, blocking the words he was about to say.

Bang!

Minori raised his toe and kicked Quaiesse in the neck, knocking him unconscious with one blow. He had no intention of giving the other party any chance to speak or make small movements.

Bending down.

Minori reached out and rummaged through Quaiesse's belongings, taking all seven remaining magic rings. In addition, there was also a magic leather bag and a magic item necklace.

He didn't have time to check the information of these magic items for the time being, so he threw them all into the item box.

"Based on the current situation analysis, Quaiesse should not be able to actively contact the Slane Theocracy, nor does he carry the magic items of the Six Great Gods."

Minori felt a slight relief in his heart. The two things he was most worried about had not happened.

In the "YGGDRASIL" game, there is a long-range communication magic called "Message". This ability, placed in ordinary games, is nothing more than a basic means of communication between players.

However, in the "YGGDRASIL" game, it is different from ordinary player communication and is mainly used for magic in special situations and places.

For example, the floor guardians of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, Cocytus and others, use "Message" scrolls as a way to contact other members.

The value of such magic scrolls is not high. Since the Great Tomb of Nazarick stores a lot of them, Minori naturally suspected whether the items left by the Six Great Gods also possessed such scrolls.

In addition, the information revealed in both the anime and the light novel is too little, and Minori cannot determine whether there are other means.

This is also why Minori has only shown the strength of a Hero-class domain in the battle against Quaiesse, in order to prevent the worst-case scenario of information exposure.

And through Quaiesse's choice to actively die, Minori at least confirmed that Quaiesse could not actively contact the Slane Theocracy.

So in the end, he could only choose to die as a means of disguised reminder.

Whoosh!

Minori carried the heavily injured and unconscious Quaiesse and flew quickly over the dense forest, then landed at the original battle location.

The gray-robed mage was still unconscious, guarded by a Power of Serenity angel!

The twin demon witches who had taken the opportunity to escape during their battle were also caught back by another Power of Serenity angel, shivering and huddled under a large tree.

Seeing this pair of demihuman witch sisters.

Minori raised his eyebrows, expressionlessly lifted his feet and walked over.

The Verdant Witch trembled all over and immediately hugged the weak Mist Witch, pressing the other's head against her chest to protect her, her eyes filled with fear, dread, and other emotions.

In the eyes of the twin demon witches, the gray-robed mage was already an existence they could not resist, and the Quaiesse who appeared later was equally terrifying.

However, these two!

Were actually all defeated by the young man who looked the weakest in front of them.

Shouldn't humans be very weak?

A trace of confusion flashed across the Verdant Witch's face. Why were the strengths of these humans they encountered so terrifying?

Step!

The sound of footsteps stopped.

The Verdant Witch recovered from her confusion and saw Minori standing in front of her, shrinking back in fear.

"Do you know how much trouble you have brought me?" Minori looked at the twin demon witches and said indifferently.

Whether it was the gray-robed mage or Quaiesse, because there were too many uncertain things, whether they were alive or killed, gave Minori a sense of being troublesome.

Of course, there were also benefits!

Because the identities of these two people were very unusual, Minori could also obtain more important information from them.

The Verdant Witch and the Mist Witch trembled at the same time.

"I ask and you answer, understand?" Minori said coldly.

Hearing that Minori was just asking questions and not killing them immediately, the twin demon witches nodded quickly.

"What race are you?"

"I, I don't know." The Verdant Witch said carefully in a low voice: "Only the two of us in the entire Great Wetland are of the same race."

Minori was somewhat disappointed with this answer.

Given the current situation, he didn't think the twin demon witches would lie about such a thing.

"Tell me about the whole story." Minori askedncoldly again.

Under the twin demon witches' unreserved opening, the entire story began to become clear. The gray-robed mage had come to the Great Wetland several years ago and immediately controlled the two of them.

Through the magic cauldron stolen from the Lizardman tribe, the twin demon witches cooperated with the gray-robed mage to conduct magic research on the eggs produced by the Frogmen.

Until recently.

The gray-robed mage's magic research results finally showed signs of success, and the twin demon witches immediately realized that the moment the magic research really had results, the two of them would completely lose their value.

At this time, the twin demon witches discovered Minori, who was fighting against the entire Lizardman tribe with his own strength, through the cave lizardmen under their command.

Therefore, they led Minori into the depths of the Great Wetland in order to have him fight against the gray-robed mage, wanting to take the opportunity to escape.

As for the appearance of Quaiesse, it was completely an accident and not in the twin demon witches' plan.

After listening.

Minori pondered slightly, raised his arm and waved it at the Power of Serenity angel not far away.

The Power of Serenity angel moved, picked up the unconscious gray-robed mage and came to Minori, took out a translucent egg-shaped object the size of a glass ball from the other party's arms, and handed it over.

"Is this what the other party spent so long researching?"

Minori pinched the translucent egg-shaped object in his hand and pressed it slightly. It was slippery and a little hard.

Judging from the previous situation.

Another purpose of the gray-robed mage's research on this thing was to lure Quaiesse, and it was something that a member of the [Black Scripture] would care about.

It can be seen the value of this experimental item.

"Item Appraisal." Minori released magic.

... Item: Artificial Demon Beast · Frogman Egg (Inferior)

Level: Lowest Level (1~10)

Restriction: Can only be controlled by the manufacturer.

Effect: After injecting magic power, the Frogman Egg can be activated to quickly grow into an adult Frogman, with a level between (5~10Lv). Because it is a life forcibly created, it has no intelligence and can only survive for one hour before dying.

Introduction: Artificial demon beast. ...

Seeing the appraisal information of the "Frogman Egg".

Minori took a slight breath and subconsciously glanced at the unconscious gray-robed mage.

Artificial demon beast?

He was actually able to create such a thing!

A level of 5~10Lv has reached the level of elite soldiers in human countries, and such a small "Frogman Egg" can replace an elite soldier.

No wonder Quaiesse would target this thing!

A rare look of solemnity appeared on Minori's face. He remembered that a frog could lay about 3000~6000 eggs each time. Even if the number of eggs laid by Frogmen was reduced tenfold.

If they were all made into "Frogman Eggs", then an elite demihuman army could be easily pulled up!

Moreover, because they have no intelligence, they will not produce negative emotions such as fear and fear of death, and they are still elite troops that completely obey orders.

Minori was startled when he thought of this, but he quickly reacted. This kind of thing had not appeared in the original work.

It is highly likely that the difficulty and failure rate of making this "Frogman Egg" are extremely high, and it does not have mass production capabilities at all.

But!

This technology——

Minori turned around, looked at the gray-robed mage who was held unconscious by the Power of Serenity angel, raised his fist and struck the other party in the chest.

"Ah!" A sharp pain struck, waking the gray-robed mage and causing him to let out a scream.

The twin demon witches who were huddled aside were startled and couldn't help but tremble again.

"Charm!"

Invisible mental magic poured into the gray-robed mage's brain, causing the other party's screaming to stop and his eyes to become dull.

If the other party was fully awake and prepared, they would naturally not be controlled by charm magic. But unfortunately, the current situation simply cannot be resisted.

"State your identity." Minori said.

"I am a member of 'Zurrernorn'." The gray-robed mage said stiffly.

Minori was a little surprised, and then said: "Heh, I really have a lot of connections with your organization."

"What race are these twin demon witches?"

He realized from the twin demon witches' answer that there was a high possibility that the gray-robed mage had intentionally approached them.

"According to the information I have collected, the twin demon witches have a certain relationship with the demon gods who descended 200 years ago, and are very likely to be the descendants left by the demon gods."

The gray-robed mage's voice sounded.
