Chapter Forty-Eight: Bloody Sympathy
Lin Xiao, the leader, didn't speak, and the behavior of the dependents was naturally according to their own instincts, and the two groups of fishmen chatted and chatted, and they chatted together.
The gray mist fishman who spoke first was quite spiritual, and he didn't hint at it, but a lot of the small talk he had with this native fishman was what he wanted to ask.
Most of it was nonsense, but a small number of questions were very level, and Lin Xiao secretly raised his fingers in his heart when he heard it.
Through some messy small talk, I also collected a lot of interesting information.
Fishmen have a limited IQ, but they don't have a sense of anti-reconnaissance, and basically they will answer whatever they can ask.
And the meaning of this can be answered is not that there is nothing that cannot be said, but the IQ of wild fishmen is this, and many questions do not know how to answer.
After about half an hour of communication, the indigenous fishmen on the other side stopped talking, and took two or three thousand men to the bottom of the coral reef on the island to fish and catch kelp, which was their food.
Lin Xiao watched as the thousands of fishmen left like this, and his scaly hand pressed on the ugly chin that was also covered with scales, rubbing it 'creaking'.
He felt that his thinking might need to change.
The previous idea was very simple, kill all the way.
Now I don't think it's necessary, although the task requires that the number of the fish-man tribe be destroyed at about 20,000, but killing all is a kind of destruction, if you can subdue this fish-man tribe, it can be regarded as a kind of destruction, and there is no limit to killing them all.
If you can subdue this fish-man tribe......
His eyes are shining, his mind is active.
If, that is to say, if he can subdue this wild fish-man tribe in this heterogeneous plane and take these 20,000 fish-people under his command, then his strength will definitely increase greatly.
In that case, the remaining three tasks were easy to complete, and he still had enough strength to try to complete those difficult tasks with a rating of more than 90 points.
There are several difficult tasks with a rating of more than ninety near this sea area, and the rewards are extremely rich, but he was not strong enough before, and he couldn't think about it, if he could subdue these 20,000 fishmen, then he could try to do it.
The rewards for difficult tasks can be much higher than those of today, whether it is physical rewards, ranking scores, or personal.
As long as you complete one, you will be in the top five grades in this final exam.
He pinched his chin hard and made up his mind.
With a wave of his hand, he greeted the indigenous fish-man who was cutting kelp not far away, and he left with his men.
Thinking along the way, and when he returned to the temporary tribe, he already had a simple plan in his mind.
First, he sent a few Naga to visit the indigenous fish-man tribe with a group of fishmen and some food.
The purpose is one, to show their existence and tell them that there is a new small tribe of fishmen not far north of the fish-man tribe.
Then, the rest of the fish-men were scattered to explore the surrounding area, mainly to the north and the depths of the sea in the east, looking for fixed food resources, killing fish and other food in large quantities, and then bringing some food to visit every once in a while.
The focus is on food, and each visit brings a certain amount of food plus other gifts.
As the saying goes, eating people with short mouths and soft hands with people, this back and forth, every time they come with food, this fish people are naturally full of good feelings towards them.
Every time he went, Lin Xiao repeatedly told his subordinates to investigate the situation of the large fish-man tribe in addition to their normal visits.
He gave him the name 'Gollum' and promoted him to be the leader of the Fishman Mission, and he personally taught him how to do it.
The fishman's IQ is too limited, and it is rare to meet someone who is a little smarter than his kind, and he is ready to cultivate it.
Twice a month, he personally led his men out to hunt the surrounding fish, as well as some sea beasts that threatened the fishmen, such as sharks, sea lizards, sea spirits, or some crocodiles that lived around the island.
Occasionally, you can come across some lobster people, all of whom are killed by the fishmen or naga and eaten as snacks.
It's a pity that he hasn't seen the lobster man's lair for a long time, and he hasn't forgotten the delicacy of the lobster man, so he has to catch some and put them in the god's domain to raise.
Later, he simply gave up, and asked Gollum to ask by the way when he went out to envoy the indigenous fish-man tribe.
What made him vomit was that although this fish-man tribe was very large and belonged to the rule of the mermaid empire, it was not developed at all, not only could it speak a simple water tribe, but it also had no name for its own tribe.
Although the scale of the tribe is quite large, because it is a mermaid and its location is located at the very edge of the sea, its status in the mermaid empire is not high, and it is not taken seriously, except for the envoy from the mermaid empire at the end of the year to collect taxes and tribute, there is no connection with the mermaid empire.
Merfolk and merfolk seem to be reversed from each other, but they are actually two completely different races.
One is a standing fish, and the other is a mermaid with a human body and a fishtail.
Fish-people are the lowest species, while merfolk are a high-level race.
It took Gollum two exchanges before she asked the lobster people about the location of their nest from the native fishmen.
It turned out to be south of the indigenous fishman tribe, no wonder they hadn't found it, they hadn't been there yet.
Then Lin Xiao personally went over, and found a large lobster man nest with three or four thousand in the south of the indigenous fishman tribe seven or eight kilometers away, in the center of the two tribes, there is an estuary of a river, a large amount of nutrients flow into the sea with the river water, and the seagrass near the delta is luxuriant, and the fish are abundant, which is a natural hunting ground for the two tribes.
The two tribes have been fighting each other for many years for this hunting ground, and they have never been able to decide the winner.
The lobster people's lair is located in a complex rocky seabed south of the small river, the terrain is complex, and the lobster people occupy the terrain advantage, and the fish tribe has always been helpless against them.
It is worth mentioning that this large lobster man is actually a marginal subordinate of the mermaid empire, and he also needs tribute every year.
Like the Great Tribe of Fishfish, it is not valued by the Mermaid Empire, and even if it is completely destroyed, it will not attract the attention of the Mermaid Empire.
After spending a period of time observing, Lin Xiao sent an envoy to communicate with the Fishman tribe and jointly attack the Lobster Man tribe.
The big tribe of fishfishers, who had long regarded lobsters as mortal enemies, readily agreed, and the two sides agreed on a day, Lin Xiao led his subordinates to pour out of the nest, and the two sides gathered near the mouth of the river.
He poured out of the nest, and the fish-people also poured out of the nest, close to 20,000 fish-people and a large area of black pressure.
The leader of the Fishman Tribe is a Level 3 Fishman Tidecatcher, a Fishman Warlock who summons tides and water elementals to help in battle.
