Chapter 178

Xu Lang knew that Toad Venom was a rare ingredient, but after checking the system instructions, he learned that this mutated Toad Venom was actually a vital component for certain special medicines. Highly toxic on its own, it could be used to amplify the lethality of Gu Poison or to coat weapons. Clearly, this substance was incredibly precious. Xu Lang felt quite satisfied that a single Giant Mutant Toad had yielded such a generous reward. Looking up to survey his surroundings, he thought to himself that there must be more than just this one Giant Mutant Toad in the forest. Hu Bayi, Shirley Yang, and Wang Fatty had already stowed their Thompson Submachine Guns and were advancing with caution. Xu Lang brought up the rear, his mind racing. If this forest hid more mutant toads, how could he lure them out? What was the purpose of that giant toad appearing earlier? Predation! It viewed Xu Lang and the others as food. Since that was the case, Xu Lang had a strategy. He released the Human-Faced Poison Bees from their bamboo tube. Although the mutant toads did not typically feed on such small creatures, hundreds of them swarming together in the mist created quite a disturbance, appearing as a much larger target. Xu Lang maneuvered the swarm into a V-formation, making them resemble a bird in flight, virtually flawless.
