Volume 1: The Storm of the Sea Chapter 47 The Fish-Man Tribe
"It's not good news, it's pretty bad. ”
Eric let out a long breath, as if trying to spit out all the worries in his chest.
"Although our overall strength is much stronger than before, we have no chance of winning against the original Storm Apostle with injuries, and the sense of oppression he brings is too strong. ”
Not only him, but even Alez and Knox in the distance hung their heads.
The Storm Apostle left them with such an impression that even if they managed to get through the second node, it would be child's play. The strength level of the Storm Apostle is much higher than theirs, and it is okay to resist one or two to ensure that he will not die with one blow, but if he really wants to fight, he can't even break the shield.
"Bourcho, how did he describe that Storm Apostle?"
His description is not clear, only a general figure, called the Abyssal Apostle, but the image is very consistent with the Storm Apostle. ”
"Messenger of the Deep?"
Viscount Eric seemed to have something in mind.
"Then you go and ask the so-called Deep Sea Emissary how often they come. Since it's called the Deep Sea, most of them don't stay on land. ”
"Yes!"
(How often do the emissaries of the deep come to your tribe?How long do you stay at one time?)"
Bourgeois was a little anxious, and his words were not very fluent. Fortunately, the fishman had been with him for a short time a few days ago, and it took him some time to understand what he meant.
(Once a year, the storm season comes, and it doesn't take more than one day at most.) )”
Gologoro didn't understand why the group of humans suddenly asked the question of the Deep Sea Emissary, but he still reminded Bourcho.
(The Deepeers are powerful, and our tribe once resisted the oppression of the Eye, but the lightning silenced everyone who came forward, and even spread to the others.) )”
(Last year, we lost half of our lives, and this year's goal will not be met, and this change is probably a punishment.) )”
"In other words, the Deep Sea Envoy has only come, and usually will not come again. ”
Bourcho himself began to mutter.
(So, what do your metrics represent?, that is, those that you will be punished by the Deep Sea Emissary if you don't complete them.) )”
(Digging ore, we don't know exactly what it is, but they all need it.) This is a personal work, and if there are too many people to die, it will not be finished. )”
"That's right......"
Bourcho got up again and walked over to Viscount Eric, the grimace on his face dissipating.
"Lord Viscount, don't worry, the Deep Sea Envoy will only come to this island once a year, and it won't take more than half a day at a time. They've already been here this year, and they probably won't come again. ”
"Well, that's good news, in that case, we don't need to pay too much attention to the emissaries of the deep sea, mainly to guard against the mutated fishmen. ”
Hearing this, Viscount Eric was also relieved. After a year, let's put it aside for the time being, and deal with the fish-people you may encounter first.
However, because of Bourcho's toss, the fish-man tribe, which was originally a little distressed, suddenly became less annoying. Probably, this is the contrast.
"However, Lord Eric, the Deep's Emissary is very strong, and like the Storm Apostle, he will use the power of lightning to wipe out half of the Fish-Man tribe in a short time. These two may not be the same person. ”
"Perhaps, but we don't have much energy to pay attention to it, so we can only try to pay more attention to it. ”
It's not that Viscount Eric isn't worried about the Storm Apostles' attack, it's just that the jackal-like fish-men are even more annoying.
"You're finally awake, Zelin. ”
After another two days, Zelin, who was seriously injured and unconscious, also woke up.
"My legs, ah!"
One was careless and moved his injured left leg, and the severe pain made him speechless.
"Don't move, your leg is probably broken, I helped you bandage and fix it, and I don't know if it can be good." ”
Zelin then realized that it was Bourcho who spoke, and since his left leg was broken, it was better not to move for better recovery.
"Do you know how to heal?"
Although Bourcho was not his superior, it saved him after all, and helped him bandage his wounds, so it was no problem to be respectful.
"If you know a little bit of basics, pastors learned a lot back then. However, your body is fine, there is really nothing to stop the bleeding, and the materials used are a little different. ”
Zelin reached out and touched the explosives on his chest, lowered his head, and looked.
"It's ......"
"This is the kind of worm skin, and in terms of single material, it is absolutely fine to make a bandage. But I don't know a little about the materials of these transcendent creatures, and it depends on whether you have changed. ”
Zelin couldn't remember where he had seen it, but Bourgeois opened his mouth to explain it to him.
"Like...... It seems to be fine. ”
To be honest, Zelin didn't feel any difference, but he didn't dare to be sure, and answered Bourgeo vaguely.
"It's okay, Lord Viscount and Alex are all fine after bandaging, but you haven't woken up, I don't know if there are any side effects. But now it seems that it is not a big deal, and it is quite easy to use. ”
Bourcho looked at Zelin with some doubts, and knew that he couldn't let go, so he simply began to comfort him.
Hearing Bourjoy's reassuring words, Zelin was relieved. Since everyone is fine, there shouldn't be any major problems with me.
"Okay, your leg is still broken, it'll be ...... to rest more"
"Lord Viscount, according to the location of the fish-man tribe found out by Bourgeois, I searched downstream along the river, and sure enough, I found the nest of that tribe, which is far away, so there is generally no need to worry too much. ”
"So, have the fish-people in the tribe mutated?"
"As far as I've observed, all of them have mutated, and their appearance is not too different from the fish monsters that attacked us, but judging by their actions, their strength may be much smaller. ”
"What's out of the ordinary, Knox?"
"And the fish-men do make their way to the mountains in the middle of the island, but the path they travel is a bit far from ours, but they seem to be digging something?"
"So, the attack of the previous four monsters was just an accident. ”
"That's right, Lord Viscount, but it stands to reason that none of these monsters will come to us, so we'd better be careful. ”
"I see, if the fish-people don't bother us, we can get along well. But if an accident happens again, it's hard to guarantee that nothing will happen again, after all, we can't control the trajectory of all the fishmen. ”
To be honest, I met four mutant fish monsters on the first page, and no one was lucky. Now, although Knox has found out the location of the Fish-Man Tribe, he can't keep an eye on the Fish-Man Tribe.
What's more, the number of fishmen in the fish-man tribe is not small, how can there be nearly a hundred, and it is really impossible to let one Knox be guarded.
"Lord Viscount, the fish-men are still easy to deal with, although those fish-men look similar to the ones who attacked us. But when I fought with them a few times, I found that their combat effectiveness was not at the same level at all. ”
Knox, however, felt that Viscount Eric did not need to be so worried.
"Oh, Knox, what's the difference?"
"Well, they're very weak. I've tried it before, and their physical strength is not as strong as the four fish monsters, and their strength and agility have dropped a notch. ”
"If you have to compare it, the four fish monsters are regular troops, and those in the tribes are civilians who only have the ability to protect themselves, and the two are not of the same grade at all. ”
In order to facilitate Viscount Eric's understanding, Knox also made a special analogy.
"Then this gap is not small, if they are all of this intensity, with our strength, there will be no big problem against these dozen or even dozens of them. ”
Eric World frowned, recalling the various characteristics of the four fish monsters. Suddenly, the most important point came to his mind and he asked.
"The most important point is that the four fish monsters have become big monsters that you and I can't resist for a while, although they are barely defeated, the battle damage is not small. ”
"This is just the effect of the four fish monsters fusing into one after death, I wonder if the fishmen of the entire tribe have this ability, or even if they can be fused alive to obtain some strange abilities?"
Fusion, which is the most critical aspect of the fish-man threat.
If the fish-men don't fuse, and the individual strength is not too high, Eric and his party don't need to be afraid at all, and they don't even need to pay much attention.
But if the fish-men can really fuse and continue to become blood-dissolving fish monsters, or even fuse with far more than four fish-men, then the threat of these hundred or so fish-people is much greater.
"Maybe that's not good news, Lord Viscount. ”
Knox's face changed, and he didn't look very good.
"While I haven't found out if these mutant fishmen fuse corpses, I do find that they do try to incorporate some flesh into their bodies. ”
"For them, blending into flesh is the same as eating and drinking, and as long as flesh is ingested, they can recover quickly and even become more courageous. ”
"yes, it's a bit of a similarity, and I can't help but be able to merge. ”
As he spoke, Eric's face became more and more ugly.
"What to do...... What to do......"
