Epic of Vampire Dragon: Reborn As A Vampire Dragon With a System

Chapter 247 - A Shady Yet Simple Scheme

-----

A group of strange Gods were moving across the waters over a boat of normal appearance but that had special magical tools over it.

"You idiots, if we use divine power the frog will notice and will deal with us, we must come here with this tool that hides its own energy presence… So we can have a chance to steal the egg." Said the man.

"Hmph… To think that the Boss would want that egg so much…" sighed the bug.

"Well, it's the egg of a powerful beast, if he gets his hands into it and raise it well…" said the woman.

"It could be a pretty big thing… Owning a Supreme God-level pet would bring him to almost the same level too! Imagine all the authority he could get!" said the bug, nodding.

"Yeah! Imagine…" sighed the woman.

The trio imagined their boss owning a gigantic frog of tremendous power, which would eliminate any threat with a single step of its enormous foot. The power that the children of this frog could develop was amazing, the risks were worth it! The payoff was way too good.

This group of people had emerged from the faraway lands conquered by the Space Pirates, as they were extracting the precious Mana Crystals and other Materials that were growing in the depths of this world's oceans, which also included the Life Swamp Soil, which was the very sediment of this world's swamps, special soil made up over eons of many life forms living and dying in the still waters of this planet, rotting, and forming a special rich soil filled with nutrients.

This soil was sold in amazing prices in the black market, and it could help anyone's farm enhance their plants to completely new levels! Many mega corporations that mass produced food in specialized production-based planets were buying this soil in large quantities.

However, as they slowly took over the entire planet, rumors about the giant frog that had ruined one of their facilities a few years ago were still spreading everywhere, and also the rumor about this monstrous being protecting an egg with an offspring also spread around.

Wanting to make some quick buck and also gain the favor of their boss, this trio of Gods went into a journey by themselves looking for the frog to steal her egg. They learned a few things along the way, and knew that the frog usually reacted to magic and energies rather badly, so they concealed their presences and the magic of their boat through specialized tools and items.

The organization where they belonged was an old one made up of a variety of people, amongst them there were many demigod-level and above members who had a big history of crime across the solar system or even the entire galaxy.

This trio of funny-looking characters were one of them, all three of them were criminals which were being persecuted by the entire Nation led by the Supreme Goddess of Brightness, the Heralds of Light. However, they were going around from planet to planet all the time, so there was little chance to be caught, especially as they were now in a planet at the corner of the entire solar system! Who would honestly care if they did anything here anyways?

This entire planet was already becoming the backdoor for space pirates and it was becoming a gold mine for them too with all its untouched resources, the Saphibians were many but they were weak and easily exploitable, being made into slaves that worked in the very mines and areas of extraction of resources. As they were able to easily traverse into the waters and bring back resources, they were enslaved and forced to do this labor.

However, the expansion had halted due to the attack three years ago, which was made by this frog herself after she detected a lot of annoying energy near her, this in particular was a World's Energy Plant, which directly extracted energy from the planet's core. It was complicated and costly to make even for gods themselves, so they had big loses in that day and their expansion ended falling behind for a long time until now, where they had finally decided to resume it and had begun to slowly catch any Saphibians they could and make them into forced laborers through their beloved slavery methods.

This trio wanted to make a quick buck with the egg and gain their boss favor, so this was the true way to go with all of this.

"I can see the top of its head… its right there." Said the bug, pointing at the giant frog sleeping below the water, its head could be barely seen popping out of the water, resembling a small island covered in moss, some flying bugs and walking amphibians were resting over it and enjoying the sunlight from atop the skies.

The frog was resting peacefully and with its eyes closed, despite their great power, the beast had yet to detect them. It might be strong, but it was very bad at detecting energy levels and so on as long as they were well hidden, and was completely incapable of seeing through them in every way…

The frog was completely unaware that a trio of malicious gods had planned to kidnap her child from her from all things, and she was just sleeping in the water, peacefully…

"Hehe, we are going to make a fortune- Eh? Who are those?" asked Laura, pointing at group of people which suddenly showed up behind the frog, they were sitting over what seemed to be a large mass of black flesh… which was swimming over the water like nothing.

"Eh? Ah? Huh?! T-Those are… Gods?! Wait, what?!" asked the Gehekakth.

"I-It's… true. All those guys are god, but they feel weak… From where did they came from?!" asked Laura.

Cutthroat, however, smiled. A malicious glint emerged on his emerald eyes, as a plan was quickly devised to deal with these weird new visitors.

"Hey, how about we let them taste a bit of the wrath of the frog? We could use them as the perfect distraction too…" he laughed.
