Capítulo 176: Discovering The Hidden Quest

After the combat ended, the frogmen became extremely wary of the newcomers, and raised their weapons at them.

"Identify yourselves!" one frogman barked.

Phoenix took a step forward, raising her hands to show she had no ill intentions.

"We come in peace. We just want to help."

"Then why do I smell the blood of our brethren on your friends?!"

"We were attacked by some of your kind on the way here. We only defended ourselves."

Phoenix had elected to lie to them, lest they had to fight their way through after taking the time to defend them. She hated losing time, but their situation required it.

Astaroth kept mostly quiet, but he clicked his tongue rhythmically every second. He was already trying to use his new skill.

The Hypnosis was slowly lowering the aggressivity of the frogmen soldiers, and their officer seemed about to lower his weapon. But before the skill could completely take hold, Phoenix stomped his foot.
