Overlord, I don't want to be the Holy Queen's Great Sword

"Although this lake is very large, the competition should be fierce. Logically, there shouldn't be many frogmen living here, probably only about a hundred thousand. Logically, the clan leader's strength should be between Mithril (level 18-20) and Orichalcum (level 21-23), but..."

Fluder shook his head. “Based on what I saw when I came here more than two hundred years ago, the chief of the frogmen here is probably at around the level of Aluminum (level 24-28).”

This sentence immediately caused everyone around to look at him curiously.

"Two hundred years ago?"

Kuirat couldn't help but ask: "Teacher, is there anything different here?"

Fluder stroked his long beard, thought for a moment, and explained, "Because the area gets more and more strange the closer we get to the depths of the Tob Forest."

"Because not only will many magical phenomena naturally occur nearby, but these magical phenomena will also condense into some extremely special magic props."

"The reason why the Empire uses magic patterns to make magic props like Rune is not only because of Rune, but also largely because of these magic props."

"Because for some reason these natural magic items all have a lot of magic words on them."

"I even suspect that the origin of Runes is these magical words."

"Perhaps it is because of the influence of these special environments that rumors of powerful aliens have been spread around the Tob Forest more than once."

"Even two hundred years ago, the thirteen heroes seemed to have come here to defeat a dragon king, and as for this lake, I seem to have some impression of it."

"I remember that a dragon man was born here. It is said that he could cast fifth-level faith magic. But when I found this place and wanted to exchange magic with him, I didn't see that dragon man."

"But I don't know if it's because of the environment that the demi-humans in this area are much stronger than those in other areas."

"For example, if the demihumans in other regions have not reached a certain level of civilization, or their population has not reached hundreds of thousands, it is rare for third-tier magic casters to appear."

"And here... although it is also rare, at least it can be guaranteed that every relatively powerful demihuman tribe has a third-tier magic caster."

What does it mean to have a magic inheritance that can reach the third level?

The strongest level of the Dwarf Kingdom now is only at this level, but can the level of civilization of these sub-humans compare with that of the Dwarf Kingdom?

For a moment, everyone around couldn't help but be shocked, and even felt it was a bit absurd.

But Karko knew it was true.

Not to mention anything else, in the lizardman tribe that was driven to the marginal area in the novel, there were several lizardman priests who could master the third-level magic. They even had the knowledge reserve of being able to speak [Cloud Operation] and recognize the Soul Eater.

How many people are there in the five tribes of Lizardmen combined? Probably less than tens of thousands.

There is even a possibility that Zaryusu could reach the heroic level in the future if he could continue to train.

I have to say that the success rate of Lizardmen is quite high.

Because this level would be nothing more than a small sub-human tribe in the Demi-human Hills, but up to now, the Demi-human Hills have only ten heroic figures, the Ten Outstanding Sub-humans, ranging from millions to tens of thousands. Isn't the contrast obvious at once?

But it is understandable. After all, the ancestors of the lizard people might have been rich.

And when Fluder said that, Karko suddenly remembered something.

There are magic words on the Frozen Fang Pain, one of the four treasures of the Lizardmen. Not only the Frozen Fang Pain of the Lizardmen, but also Hamsuke has magic words on his body. He even relies on this to complete the spell.

Very similar to the magic matrix she has.

For a moment, Karl himself couldn't help but let out a slight exclamation.

And after looking around at the silent people, Fluder finally looked at Karko who had a thoughtful look on his face.

"Your Highness, what are you going to do next?"

"How to do it?"

Carl, who had come to his senses, couldn't help but smile: "Whether it was intentional or unintentional, they've already knocked on my door, why shouldn't I go and visit them?"

With Fluder beside her, why should she be so timid?

Maybe you can even get some naturally generated magic items!

"But before we go, let's go find a local to ask for directions!"

Soon after, a clear voice sounded by the lake.

【Charm of all races】!

Chapter 53: Cloud operation, total destruction!

In the northeast of a huge gourd-shaped lake with a total area of more than 400 square kilometers, there is a group of strange buildings.

These buildings are located on the river bank, and it seems that some of the terrain on the shore has been deliberately flattened to facilitate the flow of river water in, forming an area with a depth of about one meter.

A large number of houses, with the lower part built of rocks and the upper part made of wood, are scattered in this shallow beach.

But what is surprising is that although the doors of these houses, which look a bit rough but are designed with care, are located above the lake, the lake water is allowed to flow in from below.

There is even a lower location behind the shallows that acts as a guide for the lake water, ensuring that there is always running water in the area where these houses are located.

The shallow area with lower terrain is built into a place similar to a sluice gate. Not only are there plants planted behind it, but you can even see crabs, fish and shrimps inside.

Among the numerous buildings, countless frog-people, only 1.5 to 1.6 meters tall, were wandering freely in the shallows, looking very uncomfortable.

But soon a frog man holding a steel fork quickly interrupted this pleasant moment.

The frog man swam towards the dome building at the end with an anxious look on his face. He climbed the stairs and came to the gate and knocked respectfully.

"Quack, clan leader, quack."

"I have something to report, quack!"

With the corners of the frog man's mouth and cheeks puffed up and a few lingering sounds unique to his race mixed in, the frog man anxiously and panickedly stated the purpose of his visit.

With a creak, the door opened.

A female frog man led the other frog man in. At this time, half of the house was in the pool of water, and the other half was paved with stones. Not to mention the decorations inside, even the running water in the house looked much clearer than outside.

There was even a fire on the stone ground, so the temperature inside the house was much warmer than outside.

The frogman handed the steel fork in his hand to the female frogman who was positioned like a maid beside him, then crawled in the pool and looked respectfully at the frogman sitting on the stone slab.

The armor made of fish scales of an unknown creature emits colorful light even in this house, not to mention the milky white shells and pearls of exactly the same shape and size that serve as embellishments next to the armor.

For a moment, even Karko had to admit that the beauty of the armor in front of him directly raised the frog man's appearance, which was not high to begin with.

"The clan leader, quack, the hunting captain and the others are all dead, killed by those two white monsters, quack."

"Quack, they broke in without permission, instead of sneaking in slowly as I told them to? Quack!"

The frogman clan leader's big eyes on both sides of his head widened, as if forming an inverted eight.

"Quack, the hunting captain and the others have done as you said, sir, quack."

The frog man kneeling in the pool said tremblingly, and at the same time, the frog's head drooped lower and lower, even sinking into the water.

"It's just that the team leader and his team were discovered by the people there before they even got there."

"Then the two white monsters suddenly moved and killed the captain and his men. Quack."

After saying that, the frog man fell headfirst into the pond and lay motionless.

The chief of the frog clan who was sitting on the stone platform narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a hint of annoyance.

Even the cheeks on both sides of his face suddenly bulged.

But eventually, the cheeks, which had almost expanded to the size of a head, gradually shrank.

"Forget it. Since we have failed, let the clan members patrol carefully in the next few days."

"Also, find a few smart people to keep a close eye on the actions of those humans. Got it?"

The frogman clan leader said with a look of disappointment.

He was not prepared to let those humans go just like that.

In fact, after the tribe's high priest recognized that the monster was a creature that could only be summoned by the legendary fourth-level magic, he had been keeping his eyes on it.

In the entire wetland, apart from the terrifying twin witches, the only other person who could master this level of magic was the legendary dragon.

The power of the Twin Witches was known throughout the Great Wetlands. However, just two of them were able to gain a territory in the Great Wetlands that was half the size of their frogmen.

All of this was brought about by the fourth-level magic, and now there is a great opportunity before them.

As long as he could find a way to test the magic caster's methods, and then use the number of people to wear away the opponent's magic power bit by bit, and wait until he was unable to cast magic, he would take action himself, and the magic caster would be easy to capture.

You know, even the Twin Witches would not be his match if they didn't work together.

And after he captured the magic caster alive...

The frogman clan leader smiled coldly, and the rest of the things were much simpler.

Not to mention the frog people, even most of the surrounding sub-human races have done this kind of thing.

Unfortunately, after they fought with the Lizardmen, the former overlords of the Wetlands, although they gained a lot of benefits, they let the Lizardmen leave with the so-called four treasures.

Only the Twin Witches managed to grab one of them.

That is a treasure related to the dragon clan!

Perhaps after I extract some magical knowledge from that magic caster, I could consider gathering the strength of the tribe to deal with the twin witches?

For a moment, the Frog Clan Chief couldn't help but let his imagination run wild.

But at this moment, he suddenly thought of something.

"Quack, they didn't find you when you came back!"

"Gua, I was of course cautious, but those guys were stronger than the captain. If it weren't for my friend who went out fishing to help me, I might not be able to survive now."

"Guuu, I see. Then you should go back first. You don't need to go on the surveillance mission this time."

After saying that, the chief of the frogman clan looked at his frogmen with disdain and said sarcastically.

"Remember to thank your friend when you go back, quack!"

"Quack, I see, sir, I see, quack!"

The frogman nodded excitedly, then swam out of the luxurious house quickly, forgetting to take away the steel fork in the female frogman's hand.

After walking for a distance, the frogs stood in the water in a daze.

It wasn't that he discovered that his steel fork was left with the clan leader, but that he didn't know how to thank his friend.

After all...that friend is not a frog man!

At this time, the helpless frog man scratched his head in distress.

In the grass on the shore not far from the lake, Karl poked his head out and looked at the strange buildings in front of him and couldn't help but smile.

"Fortunately, these frog people don't live in deep water. Otherwise, even if their weaknesses are obvious, it would be difficult for me to deal with them alone."

"But now it's different."

Karl held a spear and a staff in his hand, stretched one hand slightly into the air and then clenched it suddenly!

"【Cloud Operation】!"

The next moment, the sky, which was originally a little gloomy, began to completely clear up.

For a moment, the frog people in the distance noticed it and smiled happily.

Is it going to rain? The frog people love rain the most!

For a moment, the whole camp was filled with joy.

Not long after, the rain began to fall, and the frogs happily came out of their houses to enjoy the heavy rain.

Even the chief of the frog clan came outside with joy.

But as the rain got heavier and heavier, suddenly a huge white ball fell from the sky.

With a bang, it hit a frog man's head.

In an instant, the water surface turned crimson, and the frog man fell to the ground.

And then came the increasingly violent falling of large white balls like raindrops.

The rain seemed to have completely disappeared here.

Frog people are good at water and jumping. Their physical fitness is second to none even among sub-humans, but they are just like Quagoa.

Where there is strength, there must be weakness.

Just like the Quagoa have no corresponding resistance to non-metallic weapons and lightning damage, and even have corresponding penalties, the situation of the Frogmen is similar when it comes to slashing and piercing weapons and frost damage.
