Mage Joan

"The habitat and appearance characteristics of the marsh toads have been introduced by me just now. Needless to mention, as for the civilization level of this humanoid creature, according to the literature, it is still in the "Stone Age", but it is long with that obsidian. The workmanship of the spears is exactly the same. It can be seen that the weapon is probably from the hand of the marsh toad."

"The marsh toads not only look like toads, but also retain the characteristics of toads during reproduction and development. Females lay eggs in the water, and the fertilized eggs hatch to become tadpole-like larvae. Before the hands and feet grow, their tadpoles can grow. At nearly three feet in length, you can hunt fish and shrimp to survive in the depths of the swamp."

"Fully developed marsh toad larvae, the outer gills gradually degenerate and disappear, replaced by respiratory organs suitable for survival in the terrestrial environment, and the fins have also transformed into limbs, ready to land off the water."

"The marsh toads going ashore need about half a year to adapt to the new environment. When they shed their tails, they are considered to be an adult on a physiological level."

"But at the cultural level, male marsh toads who have just shed their tails are still not formally adult. According to the traditional customs of marsh toads, marsh toad boys around the first anniversary of landing must participate in a **** adult test Lian'."

"Only after successfully passing the trial and proving his courage, the boys will be accepted by the clan and become adult marsh toads with the right to marry."

"If you unfortunately fail in the trial, you will be regarded as waste by the elders and the king of the clan, suffering the fate of life-long exile, leaving your hometown with shame, and wandering around..."

"Mr. Pinkerton, you just said that someone once saw the figure of the Marsh Toad on the edge of the Baden Wetland. That may be the young Marsh Toad who failed in the'Adult Trial', and was the'French King' 'Relentless expulsion from the elders, they can only escape to make a living elsewhere."

Joan guessed.

The detective, holding a pipe, nodded thoughtfully.

"Joan, you said that the "Adult Trial" of the Marsh Toads was bloody. How specific is the **** method?"

"The marsh toad who participated in the adult trial must hunt at least one humanoid alone to prove their maturity and courage."

Joan thought about it for a while and then said:

"The targets of hunting are usually humans, orcs, or lizards, because the settlements of these three types of creatures are easier to find on the edge of the swamp."

"Of course, there is no shortage of goblins in the swamp, but the marsh toads will not use goblins as hunting targets. They think that killing goblins does not prove their courage, but will make them look like a joke."

"As said, the Marsh Toad are still a very proud people." Mr. Pinkton said with a smile.

"It is true, and this race does have proud capital."

Joan made a serious analysis.

"Taking the three types of human creatures they are most passionate about hunting, marsh toads are slightly less intelligent than humans or lizardmen, but their strength and physique occupy an overwhelming advantage, and compared to orcs, their power is slightly Inferior, with a similar level of intelligence, but a stronger physique."

"In addition, the marsh toads have two natural advantages."

"One is that they have a peculiar tongue, and there are many suckers that can secrete mucus at the tip of the tongue."

"The marsh toad is bloated, and its movements are a bit slow, but the action of "tongue" is not exaggerated as fast as lightning!"

"The tongue of the Marsh Toad is extremely flexible, and can be ejected ten feet away in an instant, tightly winding the prey, tripping to the ground, and losing its resistance."

"According to the literature, marsh toads often hide in the water, shake their backs, and create slight ripples on the water surface, simulating the illusion of fish wandering."

"Waterfowl hovering over the swamp, if you are so fooled and dive down from high altitude to fish, you will be spotted by the hidden marsh toad, and you can't help but spit out a spring-like tongue, and capture the waterbird, with a big mouth, and swallow it on the spot. in."

"Mr. Pinkerton, think about how fast the waterbirds dive and hunt?"

"This still can't escape the flexible tongue of the marsh toad people, showing how powerful their dynamic vision and hunting skills are!"

"The second talent of the marsh toads is due to their special vocal organs."

"All male marsh toads have a thin film-shaped organ under the throat called the "sound sac." When the squeal is squeezed, the "sound sac" is blown by the airflow and will bulge very much, like a big ball on the neck. It can make the tweet more loud."

"Organs like "sac" are very common for amphibians such as frogs and toads. It is nothing more than a second **** that attracts female frogs. The marsh toads are very magical. In order to show off male charm organs, evolved into a supernatural ability!"

"When male marsh toads roar in anger, they will automatically excite a negative energy in the body, fusing the airflow to hit the sound sac, and the sound wave released will not only be bright, but also make the creatures who hear the roar nearby feel terrified. It’s like being influenced by 3 rings of fear."

"Unless the willpower is strong enough to fight the magic of fear, the creatures who hear the roar of the marsh toads will lose the courage to resist, and the whole brain just wants to escape as far as possible."

"With a long tongue with a sucker, supernatural ability "fear roar", coupled with excellent strength and physique, the marsh toad is significantly stronger than humans, orcs, and lizards, and it is only necessary to treat the other as a prey. Not difficult to understand."

Finally, Joan concluded from the perspective of race competition.

"The pride and arrogance of the Marsh Toad people is actually ridiculous. Their strength only stays at the heads-up level. If it is a confrontation between civilizations, they are simply not qualified to become magical due to their poor and backward technical level. The competition of human society in the industrial age."

"The Dharma Kings and elders in power in the Marsh Toad tribe actually know the situation of their clan, so they only dare to sneak up on those who are passing through the edge of the swamp, but they dare not take the initiative to attack human towns."

Ted Pinkerton held his pipe and nodded gently, agreeing with the young master's point of view.

"Joan, if you pay too much attention to a clue, sometimes it will limit our vision and get stuck in the mud on the road to the truth."

"We might as well put down the clue of the marsh toads. Instead of taking Harrel Lancashire's death as an isolated case, we should change the perspective and try to view the many mysterious disappearances that have recently occurred in the Baden region. As a whole."

"Mr. Pinkerton, did you sum up the law from this series of serial murders?" Joan asked curiously.
