Chapter 270: Fishman Invasion
The National Library of the Land of the Thousand Islands does not look too luxurious, and it does not have a lot of books in it.
Compared with the number of books in the human country, the country of the Thousand Islands, which is dominated by foreign people, has a much smaller collection of books.
However, for Zhang Yuanhang, having a history book about the fishman is already worth the trip.
It's just that the history of the fish-people is still lackluster, after all, the fish-people themselves are not a terrestrial race, and they rarely even record all their deeds.
Only a few curious people, from the perspective of a bystander, recorded the deeds of some fish people.
Although most of them are just the living customs of the fish people, Zhang Yuanhang also found that these fish people seem to be a little inappropriate.
To be precise, most of the fish-people seem to be very different from the fish-people in his memory.
Fish-man is a kind of intelligent creature, in the game, there are NPCs who have a deep study of fish-people, and players have also carried out a lot of tasks related to fish-people through this NPC.
There are some summaries of the fish people.
For example, fish-people are intelligent beings who are similar to humans but have slightly inferior intelligence.
Fish-people are more human-oriented than beasts, and they like to gather, and they are not very strong as individuals.
Fish-people have many natural predators, so they live near the shore and water, so they become amphibian creatures.
Fish-people have their own unique culture, which leads to the special concept of the wise man, which is similar to the spellcaster in humans, with natural leadership powers.
Although the fish-men often attack others, they are basically because others have entered their territory, and the fish-people rarely go out to invade, unless they divide their families or are short of food.
For these, although the fish people are a slightly evil kind of people in the eyes of many races, in fact, not many people are willing to target the fish people when they have nothing to do with their own interests.
But in this world, the fish people have a distinctly different state.
From some records, Zhang Yuanhang can find that the fish people seem to have lost the most important wisdom in this world.
They can no longer be called humanoids, but are called beasts.
Even in the country of the Thousand Islands, most of the fish people are like this, and from time to time there is news that the fish people hurt people, but basically in order to take care of the sea frontier of the country of the thousand islands, most of them are gone.
Fish people are brutal and bloodthirsty, even when faced with their own kind, they often have an aggressive attitude, death is common, and it is not surprising that wars are fought in the same tribe.
It's like this kind of civil war in the Harpy tribe, when it appears in the Fishmen, no one cares about this at all.
Because there are so many, they are all used to it.
When the fish people are in the game, the biggest symptom is probably the loss of intelligence.
In a fragment of an ancient myth that looks quite shabby, Zhang Yuanhang saw such a small story.
I don't know the specific source, I don't know the specific time, maybe it's just the kind of fairy tale that an ordinary old man told his grandson.
In the story, the specific thing is nothing more than some grudges, as the big villain of the fish man and a certain kind race fights, and finally angers many people and is beaten up by the group.
But the last key is that a familiar name has appeared.
The fish people were about to be wiped out, and God came down in repentance.
God of Wisdom!
Or rather, a name that is not explicitly indicated, but is vaguely revealed.
At the end of the story, the fish-people, who were once sane and wise, beg the gods to forgive them so that they can continue to reproduce, and the gods grant permission.
The gods took away the wisdom and memories of the fishmen, turned them into wild beasts, and drove them into the depths of the sea.
At the same time, God also gave the fish people an abundant source of food and a place to breed without any natural predators.
"In this way, the fish-people have also been manipulated by the god of wisdom and have lost their own wisdom." Zhang Yuanhang touched his chin, looked at the record in front of him, and fell into deep thought.
The God of Wisdom has so much in common with him that he has to be extremely curious about the God of Wisdom.
He has sent orders to the forces everywhere to gather all the information about the God of Wisdom.
In addition, the information about the fishman made Zhang Yuanhang lose the idea of subduing the fishman.
This kind of bloodthirsty beast-like race, he felt uncomfortable when he thought about wearing it on his body.
In addition, how to accept it is also a difficult task.
These fish-men are not afraid of death, and the sea god they revere is an illusory image, a constructed lord of the sea, not an image born of the wind element worshipped by the harpy, like the wind god.
It is almost impossible for the fish man to be subdued, and Zhang Yuanhang can only die of this heart.
Just as there was no possibility of the fishman being subdued, Zhang Yuanhang put this matter aside and completely forgot about the fishman.
But he had forgotten about the Fish-Man, and the Fish-Man had not forgotten about him.
Things started to get a little dramatic.
The Harpy Queen made a secret negotiation with the fish-people tribe in the open sea, promising great profits to betray Zhang Yuanhang in order for the fishmen to kill him or imprison him.
Zhang Yuanhang naturally killed the fish people who came to attack, and the queen of the eagle man refused to pay benefits to those fish people when she didn't see anything wrong with Zhang Yuanhang.
In order to obtain these benefits, the fishmen of the open sea began to plan a huge war.
They united a number of huge fish-man tribes and began to form a coalition army, wanting to rely on absolute superiority to destroy the country of the Thousand Islands and break into here to kill Zhang Yuanhang.
Because they could feel that Zhang Yuanhang's ability to easily kill those fishmen who rushed into Bishui Island was not something that could be completed by the assassination of a single person.
In their opinion, only by overwhelming it in numbers can it possibly pose a fatal threat to Zhang Yuanhang.
So, just when countless people were paying attention to the civil war of the Harpy, the army of fish people rushed from the open sea.
The fish-man tribe guarding the sea frontier of the country of a thousand islands was simply unable to resist such a large number of fish-man armies in the open sea, and after a few hours of courageous resistance, they were basically wiped out.
Only a handful of fish-men with a modicum of wisdom sent this matter to the Parliament of the Kuril Country in the rear, and they also died along with the fishmen in the open sea.
It's a big deal!
Countless ethnic leaders of the Thousand Islands began to panic and even prepared to flee from here.
Because the army of fish people from the open sea who came this time is tens of millions!
Coupled with the sea beasts they drove away as food, they were even bigger and bloated.
By numbers alone, the country of the Thousand Islands has lost even the courage to resist.
