Chapter 30: The Fish-Man Who Comes with the Dawn

Mochi and Anvena searched for the cries and found a dark purple fish-man named Niro trapped in a trap on the shore of the lake. After making sure that there were no undead around, Mochi and Anvina rushed over to help Niro get out of the trap.

Mochi was always on the lookout for traps, most likely a trap placed against the fishmen.

"Huh? This is...... Cherry custard? Mo Qi glanced sympathetically at the fishman named Nilu, who could be caught by such an unpretentious food trap as "Beast Trap + Cherry Cake", and the intelligence of this fishman was really breathtaking.

"Thank you! You saved Niro's life! After Avena briefly treated Niro's wounds, Niro said to Avena and Mochi.

Mo Qi was about to say no thanks, but Nilu said something that made Mo Qi vomit blood.

"Although you saved Niro, Niro still has to tell you the truth...... It's a shame that you're wearing clothes as a fish-man......," Niro said, covering her eyes with her hands, her expression as lively as that of an innocent girl when she saw a pair of naked dogs and a man.

Mo Qi suddenly regretted saving the fish-man......

"But don't worry, although I am a little embarrassed, I will not look down on you. Just like Nilu's grandfather said, who doesn't have a hobby in this world...... I've heard the boys in the village say that your hobby is called transvestism. โ€

Mo Qi looked down at his plaid pajamas, although he was suspected of selling cuteness, but on the whole, it was within the controllable range of human aesthetics. How did it become a transvestite in Nilu's mouth? Mochi really couldn't figure it out.

"You saved Nilu, let's go to Nilu's house together, Nilu's family will treat you well."

"Okay, we'll go." Moqi was about to refuse, but who knew that Anvina responded generously, "He's still injured, so we'll treat him as a ......"

So, Mochi and Anvina followed Niro across Lake Lordanmere towards Dawn Island in the middle of the lake. This time they didn't choose to take off their clothes to swim, and they stumbled upon that wearing soaked clothes was better for the fish-people's health.

Mochi and Anvina swam across the foggy lake, and with the first rays of dawn in the morning, they came to the Isle of Dawn, in the middle of Lake Lordamere.

Mooch never expected their arrival to cause such a stir, and the fishmen from the surrounding islands all came to see the excitement.

In less than five minutes, the tiny island in the middle of the lake was crowded with thousands of purple-finned fishmen.

Of course, what they are most curious about is that the two fish-people are actually wearing clothes.

The adolescent fish-man tadpole boiled completely when it heard the news...... They are young and ignorant, full of curiosity and fantasy about many things between the sexes. When I heard that there were two fishmen in clothes, I naturally wanted to find out. The older male tadpole pretended to be the old driver I had seen, but the gills on his cheeks had already burned crimson.

The fish-man women gathered together, pointing at Mochi and Avena on the surface, but thinking to themselves, "I'm going to secretly make a cloak like that when I go back, and wear it for my husband at night......"

In the face of the tide of public opinion, Mo Qi also felt the pressure, and he couldn't understand it anymore - who of us didn't have clothes?

This is not the end, a sturdy fishman, estimated to have been single for many years, fainted directly when he saw Anvena for the first time.

What's even more exaggerated is that Nilu's grandfather, the fish-man village chief named "Porphyr", after seeing Moqi and Anvina for the first time, he didn't say anything, hugged Moqi's thigh and cried, no matter how the other fishmen persuaded him, the old fishman refused to let go.

Mo Qiyi pushed away with words: "Village chief, don't be like this, your granddaughter is still watching......"

The old village chief of the fish-man snorted and said, "You guys are here! I've waited for you! โ€

Mo Qi looked at the old fishman nervously, thinking that he had met the porcelain: "What's the matter?" Are you trying to deceive us? There are so many fishmen at the scene who have to help me testify, and I haven't bumped into him......"

The old village chief ignored Moqi's bad attitude and continued, "No, you don't understand...... I'm not mistaken, you're the legendary fish-people who come with the dawn! โ€

"Fish-Man ...... with the Dawn"

Somehow, when the fishmen on the island heard this, all the fishmen had no contemptuous look on their faces, instead of respectful and solemn expressions, and their eyes were full of respect and yearning when they looked at Moqi.

Mo Qi was a little nervous by the fishmen, and asked weakly-

"What's that?"

Nilu was a little worried about whether Grandpa was making a mistake because of his age, and also reminded: "Grandpa, you are not mistaken, so many fishmen return from the lake every morning. โ€

"You can't go wrong, quick, help me into the house! I'll show you the evidence. The old village chief, Porlu, walked back to his cave with the help of his granddaughter.

The fish-people on the island have a lot of discussions, each of them has a different idea about the "fish-man who comes with the dawn", most of the adult fish-people are worried about the changes brought about by his arrival, and the underage fish-man tadpole expresses his willingness to follow behind the "fish-man who comes with the dawn" and compose a myth of the fish-man together.

The fish-man village chief quickly walked out of the cave with an unknown animal bone.

"Take a good look!"

When Mochi got closer, the yellowed bone fragments looked like they were old, and then at the paintingโ€”on the round land, there were many fishmen, and two of them were standing in the center of all the fishmen.

One of the white fishmen is dressed in lake blue and carries a sharp sword on his back, which is exactly the same as Avena's current look.

The other fish-man wears a ridiculous nightcap and a child's plaid pajamas......

Looking at the sun behind him, it was rising from the hills of Hillsbrad, and the shape of the mountains that Dawn had "stroked" and the position of the sun behind Mochi and Anvina were the same as on the bone painting.

The fish people on the island are quiet.

Not only these aborigines, but after the painting appeared, even Mochi himself was speechless with surprise and didn't know what to say.

Niro was the first to speak out as the fish-man who had been saved by Mochi and Avena, and she threw a gray shell at Mochi's feet, and then said solemnly-

"My clam is yours."

Mochi reckoned that the meaning of this phrase was similar to that used to be said by knights, "My sword is yours", which meant loyalty and allegiance.

"But after all, don't really throw the clams here, they'll kill people!" Mochi tap-dances to dodge clams thrown from all directions, while Avena retreats into the lake very cunningly.

Countless fishmen threw the clams in their hands at Mochi's feet as a sign of loyalty and follow.

Faced with the overwhelming number of clams, Moqi's mind was in a mess, and he really couldn't figure out what was going on. Is Fishman a scam? Look at this poor and backward fish-man village, the tall thatched houses are all shabby. There are also skinny evil-finned fishmen, who really don't look like a race that can come up with complex deceptions.

At this moment, a series of system prompts came to my mind-

[You completed the "Escort the Fishman Home" quest and gained 1,000 XP.] ใ€‘

[You have completed the quest "The Fishman Who Came with the Dawn" and gained 1,000 XP.] ใ€‘

Mo Qi couldn't believe his eyes when he saw the massive increase in experience, but that wasn't the end of it. He soon received another string of system prompts-

[You have opened the Fishman reputation system]

[Evil Finfish Man Current Reputation: Respect 0/12000]
