Ch. 41Bloodthirsty Sonic Toad
Qin Hao rescued Mang Wu and the other senior students from the Vinewood Monkeys, then led the group through a comfortable half month in the wilderness. After they recovered and grew stronger, they returned to the cave and used a sound-dampening device to advance toward the Bloodthirsty Sonic Toad.
- Qin Hao killed the Vinewood Monkeys, freed Mang Wu and the others, and concealed what had happened to them.
- Qin Hao built the group a large log cabin, organized their hunting and meals, and helped them spend half a month recovering and improving their strength.
- Qin Hao identified the cave monster as a Bloodthirsty Sonic Toad and proposed absorbing its sound waves to blunt its attacks.
- The group stitched monster pelts together, stuffed them with leaves, and pushed the sound-dampening device into the cave as they advanced.
- Qin Hao and the others reached the edge of the Spirit Pool, where the device weakened another sonic attack enough that they felt no force and heard only the toad's cry.
