Chapter 266: The Ancient Fish-Man Race
Fish-people are very ancient creatures, and most of their history is unknown, and most of their oral expressions consist of rote and hard-to-pronounce ancestral names. The Fish-People speak the Aqua language, which is also spoken by the Dragons and Shrimps. Most of the accepted knowledge about fish-people comes from their field observations.
A lot of knowledge about the Fish-People can be easily observed by any adventurer: they are not one of the intelligent creatures of the Immortal Island, but the Sages, the spiritual leaders of the Fish-People, show that they seem to have a strong affinity for natural magic. They tend to live in densely populated camps and villages along the coast. So it is known that on some occasions, the fishmen worship the mysterious sea gods and dragons.
Most importantly, they seem to be hostile to most sapient races, and are therefore often gullible to them. Legend has it that the Fishmen are actually the oldest race in the world, at least as old as the Giants and Dragons, as it is known that the serpentine dragons once enslaved a group of fishmen who lived in the deep sea, and those fishmen were called "Mogul".
The fish-man's village is made of broken branches and mud, and it's not planned. There are no fires, no clean roads, and no fortifications in the fish-man villages. The Fishman Hut is natural and simple, except for the houses of the high-level Fishman Mages and the Immortals, and the shallow pool, which is also representative at the back. Most of the huts are supported by long-legged wooden poles to protect against floods and tides.
In stark contrast to their pristine exterior, the interiors of most fish-man huts are intricately decorated. Some are decorated with bifurcated corals, some are inlaid with bakers, and there are amazing tapestries woven from dried seaweed. Cottages usually have no walls and support the ceilings with tiny wooden pillars. The fish people sleep in the water or on mats made of seaweed, which are firmly woven to maintain their shape, but the gaps are so wide that they look like a small rectangular net.
Fish-people rarely use iron and hardly touch fire. They are skilled sculptors who carve stone, baker, coral and wood into amazing crafts. For example, a realistic piranha carving is carved from a small piece of coral. The staffs of the cultivators are also works of art, with many bones and bakers embedded in the teeth, fins, and claws of various sea creatures that the inhabitants of the surface have rarely seen.
The mutated fish-man is a new species of fish-man that has recently appeared, originating from achievements in cultivation, various mutations, and combinations. These creatures are more cruel than their brothers, and they hunt humans and other creatures for pleasure rather than sacrificing them. The mutant fishmen enjoy the bloody activity and the pain of their victims. Many mutant fishmen continue to eat their victims for days, careful not to let them die quickly. More powerful mutant fishmen use healing spells to prolong this entertainment.
While the Fish-People breed in large numbers on the rugged coast, a mutant tribe has begun to emerge in recent months. Although the cause of this strange mutation is unknown, many believe that an unknown evil is awakening in a rage. The mutated fish-people are so depraved that their enslavement of their fellow human beings has long been known.
The Mogul Fish-Man is a humanoid creature with thick, warty skin, webbed claws, and bulbous eyes with fierce eyes. A row of spiky teeth protrude from their large, frog-like mouths, and their backs are covered by protruding backbones. These creatures were once fish-people, but were twisted by the forces of evil. Mogul would be happy to capture other humanoids and fishmen, and they would torture and then eat their victims. They breed in large numbers in the oceans, climb aboard passing ships and kill everyone.
The Mogul Fishmen and the Mutant Fishmen are distinctly different in that they have an earlier origin and are stronger. These moguls are grouped together in small groups, often but not always, connected. These groups steal from each other, and the Mogul will often raid the lair of rival groups to loot each other's eggs for their own food. The Moguls are organized in a spontaneous way, usually when they raid the four races and the Fishmen. If the harvest of these raids is weak, they are very likely to attack their kind.
The Mogul fish-people are at peace with what they encounter, and they don't even have definite borders. The nest is also temporary, usually used to imprison prisoners or mate. They only equip what they are fit to use and carry, although a makeshift nest will store a large amount of treasure looted from their victims. These savage creatures are only afraid of one race: that is, the water dragon clan, for the dragon clan's immortal arts and supernatural powers, there is a wonderful fear and worship, because some fish people can also cultivate into dragons.
The Mogul fishmen will use any advantage to strike at their enemies, and they will initially use nets to conquer their enemies. Will swarm and divide enemies into small pieces and then cannibalize them on the battlefield. Stronger enemies will be lured into the water by them, where they have a greater advantage. Before attacking the ship, they will tear the bottom of the ship and destroy the rudder. Fish-people can breathe in the air or water. They prefer and are suitable for underwater life.
Nestled in the middle of a mountain surrounded by mountains, Panda Canyon is a quiet and beautiful retreat that is linked to the sea, if not for the increasing threat from the evil spirits in the water over the years. The sunfish produced there is famous all over the world. Such a delicacy also attracted a large number of fish-people to live in the eastern part of the lake, they encroached on all the fishing spots of the sunfish in the eastern part of the lake, and quietly swam to the center of the country close to the panda-people, there are more or less small battle mages, and the peaceful fairy islands are also competing for the world for life.
The strongest fish-man in the Fish-Man tribe, he catches and eats almost three times as many fish as the average fish-man every day. Almost all panda people who haunt the swamp know that unless the fishmen in the swamp touch their own door, no one will run to waist-deep, fishy and smelly black water to find trouble with those sticky and disgusting guys, let alone use magic weapons to hit their big, round skins!
However, the inhabitants of the area now have to face up to the fact that the fishmen have reached their doorstep! Within a hundred steps of the panda people's water lake, they can see their densely packed houses built on the shore. They are very cunning, as they always disguise themselves as ordinary fish-men, and they never linger too much in a fish-man village, so that all hunters who go to clear them are in the air
Not many people know about it.
For the fishmen, the power to manipulate lightning is very great, and their healing abilities also bring peace to the tribe, which is a headache for the immortals who go to encircle and suppress them.
There are so many and strange people of the three tribes led by the mantis people, and they don't know how to be good for a while, and the panda people don't know about this matter. I saw only one mantis man start to give orders, and all the mantis people in all directions, the monkey people on the cliff, and the fish people in the water, launched the first round of attacks, which is the real group attack force.
The panda people are in full swing at the banquet, happy for the guests of the panda country today, and happy for the panda warrior Tiemu, who has not returned for many years, and when he brings back his wife and children. The world outside has opened up. At this time, all the immortal soldiers of the panda warriors outside fought in the canyon in the dark, flying sand and stones, you came and went, you attacked and blocked, the world was deformed, and the sun was dark, at this time they also eliminated countless praying mantis and other monkeys and fish people, but each immortal panda man was wounded, and even many panda people died.
The Panda Kingdom was still celebrating, only to hear the big bell on the huge bell tower being ringed, the horn of the enemy attack sounded on the highest tower, the Panda King ordered the prince to lead all the immortal soldiers and generals of the Panda Immortal Army, all flew out to resist. The rest of the ordinary immortal panda people who had no combat power hid in the depths of the room.
Panda Tiemu came to Zhang Xuanchu and the Immortal Maiden and said, "My country is facing an enemy attack from the battle, it is my duty to guard, can you help my country?"
As he was saying this, the king happened to hear their conversation on the other side, and knew that the two men brought by Ironwood must be great immortals, and this opportunity should give them a helping hand to help the pandaren.
The king came to the three of them and said to Zhang Xuanchu: "Daxian, my country has been attacked by other clansmen today, it seems that this fairy island has been safe for too long, if my country can't resist it, please ask the two distinguished guests to help keep the hope of our country." ”
Zhang Xuanchu said: "The king is polite, Tiemu is my brother who has been fighting for a long time, his business is my business, since your country is in trouble, I should help you." But Your Highness, you should rest first, and see how tired you look. After Zhang Xuanchu finished answering the king, he turned back to speak to the underworld.
The underworld said: "You underestimate me too much, although I just danced and drank with them, but now I am still the same powerful, fighting is not a trivial matter for me, you haven't seen my spell battle, let me open your eyes today." ”
After finishing speaking, he flew out of the palace without saying hello, three men, you look at me, I look at you, except for the king who stayed on the palace tower to watch, Zhang Xuanchu and the two flew out directly and came to the battlefield in the distance with the underworld. I don't want to, when I came to the lake, I saw that many fishmen had attacked many small towns, monkey people attacked many small villages and towns under the cliffs, and many immortal panda people fell in a pool of blood.
