While teasing the embarrassing Jayna, Angus moves using [Beast Walk] through the misty lust forest and searches for Crabfrog. Since [Beast Walk] is originally the combination of various animal movements, it shows its true power in the forest's uneven terrain.
Angus passes through the forest and dodges every sneak attack like an unstoppable train. He ignores the nearby sneaky beast/monster since there will be no end if he fights back against every one of them.
The constant blurry image of the surroundings and how fast they travel made Jayna wonder at Angus' speed and skill. She can reach this speed even quicker but not while a person is in her arm and through this uneven terrain.
Moreover, she didn't feel any discomfort while they were moving at this speed and continuously changed direction with a sharp turn. This shows Angus' [Beast Walk] is more than just a fast movement speed but a complex and sophisticated skill.
Usually, Jayna will feel jealous and grumble when Angus shows off like this. However, she didn't feel any jealousy toward Angus. Since they just get intimate, she only feels boundless warmth and peace in Angus' arms. She even wants to stay in this position forever.
Angus also notices Jayna's thoughts as she doesn't bother to cover them and directly shares through their bond. This only makes his grip firmer but also gentle at the same time. He even occasionally kisses Jayna's head when he moves.
Even though they are flirting with each other, they are still serious in their search for Crabfrog. With how stubborn and naughty Anna is, it will be impossible to persuade the little troublemaker to cancel and change this test content. Hence, they need to find the Crabfrog to pass the test.
Unfortunately, they still didn't find any sign of Crabfrog even after half-hour of searching around. With Angus' speed and sharp perception combined, they manage to cover the surrounding area within a few kilometers away.
Then, they decide to go towards Darren's location as it is time for them to gather. While moving, they suddenly hear a familiar thunderous booming sound. *BOOOOO* Along with it, some strong gust of wind is coming on their way.
Hearing the sound and seeing the incoming gust of wind makes them remember a strange elephant plant and the little troublemaker that likes to play with it.
As the sound and the gust of wind gone, "Wiiii… Higher!! Higher!!" a familiar child voice is heard above them.
*Bam* *Crack* Anna does a flip in the air and successfully lands on the ground while cracking the ground below.
"Thank You!! Thank You!!" said Anna as she responded to the nearby invisible cheering audience like when she first met Mira.
"Anna!!" called Angus and Jayna while Angus put Jayna down.
"Ehh… Angus!! Big Sis!!" replied Anna as she had just noticed them.
Then, Anna ran towards them and threw herself in their embrace. At the same time, Angus also notices Mira falling slowly like a leaf in the air with her umbrella open.
"*Sniff* *Sniff* Angus is inside Big Sis again." said Anna snuggling to Jayna rubbing her head to Jayna's stomach.
p "Anna!!" called Jayna in embarrassment, but she still let Anna embrace her.
Angus and Jayna know Anna likes getting touchy whenever they do their session and not cleaning themself properly. They don't know the real reason, but they don't mind it since it does not harm them and also makes Anna happy.
A moment later, Mira landed on the ground gracefully, unlike Anna's rough landing and Darren appeared out of nowhere behind her.
"Ohh… What a coincidence. Did you manage to find the Crabfrog?" asked Darren.
"Nope. I think it is not near this area. If Master Darren's information about Crabfrog is true, then it should leave a lot of trace on the surrounding area." replied Angus.
"True. We also didn't find any poisonous traces on our search." said Darren.
While Darren and Angus exchange their information about their search, "Mira. Here!! Here!! Angus is inside Big Sis." called Anna loudly while still on Jayna's arm.
Hearing this, Jayna is blushing like a baked crab, while the others have different reactions. Darren smiles teasingly at the couple. Mira closes her mouth with her hand and shudders from holding her laugh.
While the little troublemaker itself is confused at everyone's reaction but still hugs Jayna like a koala. Then, they decide to camp in the area after cleaning it from hidden creatures nearby and applying a rune to the surrounding area.
Since it is hard to find Crabfrog in this misty forest, they decide to stay in the woods rather than return to the hotel. This way, they have a higher chance of finding the Crabfrog, even if it is coincidental.
Later, Aunt Extalia's group joined them without finding any trace of Crabfrog. Although she doesn't like camping in this dangerous place, she knows it will increase their chance of finding Crabfrog.
In the end, she decides to give up as she finds the rune barrier is capable of holding her attack.
While Angus searches for Crabfrog in the Twilbo Woods, the world is plunged into chaos, especially the Elf kingdom and its nearby area. The monster horde finally reaches elf territory.
Before the monster horde reaches the elf territory, the elf keeps getting harassment attacks from stealth-type bug monsters. This prevents them from sending help to any nearby kingdom and slows down the monster horde.
Currently, a tall wall made of wood is slowly crumbling from the continued Miasma Blast of the monster horde. *BOOM* *BAMM* Various projectile skills and spells are flying all over the battlefield.
Countless monster corpses are scattered across the ground. However, no elf race corpses were found on the battlefield despite the battle already happening for more than hours.
"Sir, we are getting overwhelmed and can't hold back the gate anymore." reported the nearby elf warrior in a ragged appearance.
*Swish* The elf commander didn't immediately reply, butchering the nearby flying bug monster with his sword on the top of the wall. Then, he looks at the elf leader Vandor, who is still occupied fighting against a few fifth-grade bug monsters far away from their area.
Seeing the elf leader Vandor is still busy fighting and can't help them anytime soon, "Retreat!! Move back to the forest!!" commanded the elf commander.
All the elves immediately abandon the wooden fortress and escape to the forest behind them. Without the elf's deterrence, the monster horde easily breaks the wooden wall and pursues the running elves.
Suddenly, a large number of arrow shots from the forest hit all of the monster's vital points. In less than minutes, dozens of monsters died before they could enter the forest. Still, this didn't stop the monster from charging inside the forest.
Unfortunately, this is not an ordinary forest. This is an elf-made forest and the actual defensive fortress of the elven kingdom. Elf race is an expert hunter and stronger fighting in a tall, lust forest than on the top of a fortress wall.
Their agile fighting style is complemented by the thick forest. This is also one of the reasons the elf kingdom was never bothered by the other kingdom. Most enemies will be killed by magical wooden arrows while they venture into this forest.
A wooden fortress outside is only a place for elves to do business with the surrounding kingdom. It is nothing but just a hub center for meetings and trade.
Still, the monster horde consists of bug-type and is also familiar with the forest. Although it is different from Dark Forest, they didn't need too much adaptation like other monsters. The fighting continued through the woods.
Some monsters try to destroy the tree and forest to force the elves out, but they only find the tree sprouting back as soon as it gets destroyed. More monsters kept dying under the magical wooden arrows while they couldn't kill any single elves since the fight started.
Once the elves are on the verge of dying, a rune on their body will shine and teleport them to safety. Despite the decreasing elves on the field, the monster still couldn't penetrate the forest since the elf reinforcements kept coming.
As the fight continued, a dark thundercloud suddenly appeared above the forest. *BOOM* a humanoid black beetle holding a spear in his hand appeared above the forest. All the elves in the surrounding area also notice the appearance of the Krugguar Emperor.
*PIIKKK* The monster overlord screeches loudly and swings its spear in a circular motion. Black lighting balls appear around the monster overlord.
Then, the Krugguar Emperor turns into lighting in a certain direction as he clashes with the incoming spell [6th Circle - Starfall]. *Bam* *Bam* *Bam* The incoming fast spell rained down the monster overlord without stopping.
However, the black lightning-coated beetle monster still fends off all the incoming attacks with his black spear. After a while, the Krugguar Emperor changed into a throwing position and threw his spear in a certain direction [Black Thunderbolt].
*BOOOM* The spear travels instantly and penetrates all the sprouting trees trying to hold it. Then, an elf holding a wooden staff appeared in the air unscathed.
At the last moment, Elf Leader Luke manipulated the nearby tree and created an opportunity to dodge the attack. Just as they want to continue his fight, *BOOOM* [Wrath of Thunder]
