Chapter 179: Hunting Flying Fish
Huang Xiaotian's matter, let's talk about it later, Huo Hai doesn't have time to trouble him now. The most important thing for Huo Hai now is to find a high-level spiritual technique suitable for the cultivation of a sorcerer as soon as possible.
After destroying these guys, no one followed Huo Hai along the way. Even if he saw people from a distance and glanced at Huo Hai, he was not interested. A hermit's robe, plus a large backpack that doesn't contain much.
This outfit is completely the dress of a mercenary adventurer, and it is also the kind of loose person. Even if it is a person from the Imperial City Academy, dressed up like this, he is the only one along the way, and he is not the kind that mixes well. The backpack behind Huo Hai is empty, and it can be seen from the outside that this guy may not have gained anything.
In this way, there is no oil and water, but it may provoke the existence of the students of the Imperial City Academy, and no one wants to find trouble without trouble. That's right, it's still a lot of time from Imperial City College, so many of the academy's students come and go.
This is also Huo Hai's purpose, not to be noticed, this is the best. The road was quiet, and after there was no one to follow him, Huo Hai's speed increased again. Originally, it took two days, and the distance out was not more than half a day now.
Ten days later, Huo Hai looked at a forest at the end of his line of sight from a distance, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief: "It's finally here." "That's right, this forest is the range of the Leaping Fish Swamp. Picking up his pace, before the sun set, Huo Hai finally came to the edge of the woods. Looking closer, this forest looks like a mangrove forest.
Many trees grow in water. The water is very clear, and you can see a lot of fish swimming back and forth below. But once you enter the water, you can find that the underwater here is not ordinary at all.
It's a swamp, and somewhere down the road is a bottomless quagmire. Even the ground that leaks between the lakes has a lot of mud. "This is the swamp. Huo Hai looked at the large shallow lake in front of him that seemed harmless, and his heart was full of emotion. After two lives, Huo Hai saw a real swamp for the first time.
On the surface, it's no different from some ordinary lake. It's just that the range is a little bigger, and the number in the middle is a little more. Some of the seashores can see a similar scene.
At this time, the sound of falling into the water sounded, and Huo Hai saw at a glance that a strange fish rose into the air and then fell into the water. This fish, which looks somewhat similar to manta rays, has large fins on both sides, like wings.
The reason why the Leaping Fish Swamp is called the Leaping Fish Swamp is this flying fish. That's right, when Huo Hai came, he already knew something about this place. The most famous thing about the Leaping Fish Swamp is these flying fish. When the flying fish leaps out of the water, it looks like a huge bird. This kind of flying fish can be seen everywhere in the entire Leaping Fish Swamp.
It is said that the taste of this flying fish is very good, which is why some people come to hunt for flying fish in the Leaping Fish Swamp. It's a pity that except for this kind of thing, there is no special product in the entire Yueyu Swamp.
"I heard that this thing is delicious, but I don't know how it tastes, so grab one and try it. Looking at these flying fish, Huo Hai's heart moved.
It's better to act than to move, Huo Hai's perception of insects can clearly feel that the purpose of these flying fish, the moment they fly, is not anything else, but for predation. Every time a flying fish flies, a bug disappears from its own perception. Don't forget, Huo Haike is an insect magician, and his sensitivity to insects is stronger than anyone else's.
Moreover, the corners of Huo Hai's mouth hooked slightly, these insects are also the raw materials for his own spells. Huo Hai closed his eyes, and a stream of spiritual power condensed in his hand. The surrounding insects instantly communicated with Huo Hai and connected them with spiritual power.
Huo Hai can use the spiritual power link to inject the spiritual power in his body into the body of the insect anytime and anywhere, so as to cast spells.
Not long after, not far from Huo Hai, a flying fish soared into the air. The target is a beetle in the sky. "Well done. Huo Hai let out a low snort, and the moment he opened his eyes, the spiritual power exploded, and along the spiritual power, it silently entered the body of this beetle. It's a pity that for the fluctuation of spiritual power, Flying Fish can't feel it at all.
The spiritual power fluctuations of the sorcerer themselves are not very strong, and they are usually very secretive, because the sorcerer pays more attention to his own spirit. The flying fish is just the lowest level, how can a spirit beast in the spirit realm sense it.
The flying fish in mid-air ate the beetle in one bite, and at this time, Huo Hai also moved. With his hands crossed gently, Huo Hai himself didn't know what Lu Dao was for, but he felt that making this kind of action was more conducive to the play of spells.
In fact, every sorcerer has a set of mudras. Some of these mudras were studied and comprehended by oneself, some were developed from common mudras, and some were simply learned directly. Huo Hai can't be regarded as a mudra, it can only be regarded as an instinctive action. Mudras are not something that can be learned anywhere.
Moreover, Huo Hai researched it himself, but because of time, he did not study it. In short, this feeling of casting spells is actually the prototype before the formation of the mudra. Huo Hai crossed his hands and made this movement without hesitation.
With Huo Hai's movements, the spiritual power in the beetle's body exploded instantly. The composition of the beetle's spiritual power has changed, and the carapace around the beetle has grown rapidly and expanded rapidly. Almost instantly, the beetle was covered with hard carapaces.
The surrounding bone grows rapidly, forming spikes shaped like the horns on the head of a beetle. Spikes grow in the mouth of the flying fish. The flying fish that bit the beetle was suddenly unlucky. It was a spell cast by a sorcerer, and the spikes of the worms were unusually hard. The mouth of the flying fish, which had no defense at all, was directly pierced.
The last thorn pierced directly into the head of the flying fish, and the flying fish was killed on the spot. Huo Hai breathed a sigh of relief and slowly withdrew his spiritual power. When the Star Gu lifted the flying fish out, the spiritual power had already been withdrawn, and the spikes had completely disappeared.
The beetle that was used by Huo Hai is not dead yet. "Forget it, you can be regarded as a great achievement today, let you go. Huo Hai escaped the beetle and threw it into the grass. The target of the spell just cast is the carapace of the beetle.
The composition of the internal spiritual power of the beetle itself was not changed, so this beetle could survive. All of this happens a lot, but it only takes a second or two. Electrifying and flint, spells are activated very quickly.
At this time, in front of Huo Hai, there was already a huge flying fish. When you are far away, you can't see clearly. At this time, Huo Hai realized how big this flying fish was. The body plus the unfolded fins are actually bigger than lying on the ground. This thing is so big and numerous, it's no wonder it can become the base of the entire Leaping Fish Swamp food chain.
"It's a shame that the control is far from enough. Huo Hai checked the biggest injury in the flying fish, and shook his head helplessly. Inside the mouth of the flying fish, there are several wounds, all of which were stabbed by the beetle's tip.
The fatal spike was the real purpose of Huo Hai's spell, and it was also a spike that Huo Hai concentrated on controlling. The other spikes are naturally derived because they are not well controlled.
Although it can also hurt flying fish, it is useless. It took a lot of spiritual power, but it didn't work. This bit of spiritual power is nothing to Huo Hai, but it exposes a problem, that is, his spiritual power control is still far from enough. This is also the problem faced by every sorcerer who has just reached the realm of the spirit.
"Forget it, let's talk about it later, take your time. Let's taste what this flying fish tastes like. After a few moments, Huo Hai threw these thoughts out of his mind. Improving spiritual power control is not something that can be done in a day or two.
All sorcerers have basically been improving their spiritual power control all their lives. I just didn't care about it for now, I heard that this flying fish is delicious. But how can you eat such a big one? Huo Hai frowned and looked at the huge flying fish on the ground.
With such a big flying fish, I'm afraid I can't eat it all by myself. After thinking about it, Huo Hai set his eyes on the back of the flying fish. "I heard that the meat behind the flying fish is the best meat in the whole body, so let's eat this today. Huo Haihai stepped forward, pulled out the dagger, and cut off the meat behind the flying fish with a few knives. When you're away from home, there's not much to be particular about.
And Huo Hai didn't know much about cooking in his previous life, but in this life, he just learned to barbecue. lit a handful of purchases on the spot, and Huo Hai directly put this piece of meat on it and put it on the flame for barbecue.
"Don't look at it, I'll give you the rest. "You guys Huo Hai said are naturally Star Gus. Star Gu didn't understand what Huo Hai meant, but they were still very happy when they were ordered to eat.
It didn't take long for there to be nothing left of the ground. Not even a single blood or bone remained. After following Huo Hai's destruction of corpses for a long time, the Star Gu naturally developed the habit of leaving nothing behind. Huo Hai didn't care, and looked intently at the grilled fish in front of him. Under the flame, the fish turns brown little by little, and the fragrance fills the air.
Inside the water, black shadows approached Huo Hai's location when Huo Hai didn't pay attention. The Leaping Fish Swamp is notorious, but it's not just a peaceful creature like the Flying Fish.
If it is replaced by ordinary people, who will barbecue directly by the lake in the Yueyu swamp. Huo Hai came here for the first time, and he still didn't understand many rules. As the fragrance became more and more intense, the black shadow was getting closer and closer to Huo Hai. In the water, several lantern-like eyes were firmly fixed on where Huo Hai was. In other words, he was simply staring at the grilled fish in Huo Hai's hand.
