Terra Nova Online : Rise Of The Strongest Player - Chapter 565

Chapter 565: Outrageous Goodluck
While Leo looked at his new pet with contempt, the staff members at the Arc Ship began sweating buckets, looking at the pet he just pulled.

“Just how outrageously lucky can one man be?” Raven muttered, as he could not believe that Leo managed to pull the second strongest ranked beast in the entire universe as his pet.

“The only pet stronger at the mythical grade than an ancient swamp frog is the Eldritch Duck, but the frog is a close second” muttered Raya as she began searching for information on the ancient swamp frog on her arc ship computer.

For a while, Raya scrolled through the dense, informational text about the Ancient Swamp Frog, the screen in front of her filled with details, until she eventually reached the article written by a notable research organization that specialized in analyzing beast abilities.

For a second, she almost couldn’t believe her eyes as she read through the elaborate tale of this terrifying beast.

‘The Fearsome Legacy of the Ancient Swamp Frog’

The Ancient Swamp Frog, also known by the formidable title “The Mana Nullifier,” is widely regarded as one of the most dangerous mythical creatures in existence. Known for its immense size, extraordinary abilities, and a history of hunting powerful creatures, this beast has cemented its reputation across the universe.

Upon reaching maturity, the Ancient Swamp Frog can grow to a size that dwarfs most mythical beasts, often reaching one and a half to two times the size of an average dragon. These creatures boast exceptional longevity, living for 700 to 1,000 years, which allows them to dominate ecosystems for centuries at a time.

What makes the Ancient Swamp Frog truly fearsome, however, are its unique abilities. The most notorious among them is its venom. Stored within specialized glands, the frog can release this venom at will, either to immobilize prey or kill instantly.

The potency of this venom is unparalleled, and according to some accounts, a single drop could incapacitate entire groups of enemies within moments.

Yet, perhaps even more fearsome is the frog’s unparalleled ability to drain the mana of any target it latches onto. By attaching its powerful mouth to its victim, the frog can completely disable the target’s magical abilities, rendering them unable to cast spells or defend themselves.

This ability is particularly effective against creatures like dragons, who are heavily reliant on their mana for combat and survival.

This draining capability has earned the Ancient Swamp Frog its title as the “Mana Nullifier,” making it one of the most feared predators in the universe and securing its rank as the second most powerful mythical creature, just behind the elusive Eldritch Duck.

The physical prowess of the Ancient Swamp Frog is equally astounding. Its skin is incredibly resilient, providing near-immunity to conventional weapons and magical attacks.

This thick, durable hide has proven to be an essential defensive feature, allowing the frog to endure against some of the most powerful enemies.

Moreover, the frog’s exceptional mobility further enhances its combat capabilities. It is capable of explosive leaps, covering distances of several kilometers in a single bound.

These leaps, combined with its formidable strength, enable the frog to effectively ambush prey or evade danger with ease, to the point where it is often considered a quasi-flying beast due to its incredible jumping range.

The frog’s combination of venom, mana-draining abilities, and nearly indestructible skin have made it a force to be reckoned with throughout its long life.

Tales of these frogs hunting dragons for sport, not merely survival, have been recounted on numerous planets, including the infamous swamp world of Morvath, where dragons were driven to extinction over the course of a hundred thousand years by these very creatures.

Raya’s expression hardened as she finished reading the article, her mind racing with the implications of Leo’s new pet.

“This… is unreal,” she said, her voice quiet but firm.

“Leo just bonded with one of the most dangerous creatures in the universe.” she commented, as she looked towards Raven who nodded his head in agreement.

“The second most powerful mythical beast… and Leo has no idea.” Raven said as he let out a low whistle of jealousy.

Raya’s eyes flickered back to the screen.

“The Mana Nullifier. That ability alone is terrifying.

If the frog can neutralize mana, Leo will be able to take down almost anyone who relies on magic—dragons, mages, you name it. They’ll be defenseless against him” she said, as her thoughts instantly drifted to Drogo, and the most difficult quest within the game world, which was to kill the infamous black dragon.

Raven chuckled, though the amazement in his eyes remained. “And let’s not forget—it’s practically a flying pet with that jumping ability.

On its back, Leo will be able to cross entire battlefields in one leap.

That is once the beast matures of-course”

“Leo’s life is about to change in ways he can’t even imagine,” Raya remarked, leaning back in her chair. “That frog will make him a force to be reckoned with.'”

Raven smirked. “He has no idea what he’s gotten himself into, does he?”

Raya shook her head, the gravity of the situation sinking in. “Not yet… but he will.”

The two arc ship attendants sighed deeply as they realized that Leo’s entire life was a string of goodluck.

While they struggled to secure a simple promotion within the universal government, Leo obtained universe shaking objects one after another without ever having to work hard for it.

Even today, he did not realize the importance of the pet he had just gained, while there were many in the universe who would kill to obtain one.

In terms of pure value, a young unimprinted ancient swamp frog was worth two grandmaster meditation manuals, as the mythical beast was almost guaranteed to become a Grandmaster level beast upon maturity and had a 50% chance to reach transcendence.

Second only to the Eldritch Duck, it was the ultimate pet, yet Leo Skyshard, being the unassuming fool that he was, named it ‘Dumpy’.
