Chapter 460: Fishman
Although they temporarily plugged the hole in the bilge, it did not mean that they were at ease.
The water hadn't drained yet, but they could already hear the fish-man scratching the bilge, and maybe soon, the bottom of their cabin would be hollowed out again.
"No, you have to get rid of these fish, otherwise no boat can afford to destroy them like this. ”
Lacey looked at Jia Yi and them, she had no choice, it was impossible for her to let a knight go into the water to get rid of these fish people, if it was on land or on a boat, Lacey would have no problem, but under water, Lacey couldn't do anything.
"I'll come. ”
Jia Yi took a step forward, his hands towards the bottom of the cabin, and then a wave of spell fluctuations came out, and March felt only a wave of nausea, and hurriedly took a few steps back.
They hurriedly added a sound-muffling shield to themselves, which made them feel much better, and at the same time, they didn't forget to add a shield to Lacey to eliminate the negative status.
Originally, the sound of the squeaky fish-man claws scratching the bilge under the bilge of the ship was immediately gone, and Jiayi used his own sonar to detect and found that these fish-people had gone away, and at the same time, a few seemed to have something wrong and had fainted in the river.
"What kind of spell is this?" asked Lacey, curious.
Jia Yi stood up and wiped the water off his hands: "Sonic spell, the same as sonar, just now I used ultrasonic impact to drive the fish-man away, let the captain go quickly, although ultrasonic can drive away the fish-man, but it can't be completely killed, get out of here quickly." ”
As he spoke, he asked people to come in and mend the hole in the cabin, the leak in the bilge was a big damage, and it had to be repaired as soon as possible, and now that the fish-men had been driven away, and they had helped to temporarily block the groove, it was much easier to plug the leak.
However, when the ship arrives at the academy, it will inevitably have to be overhauled, and for the ship, the damage below the waterline is a very serious injury.
Jiayi and they went on the deck, just now Jiayi stunned a few fishmen, and now after the boat left, the fishmen floated to the water, and there were fishmen in the distance, as if they wanted to approach but were a little afraid to approach.
Kaichi asked the captain to manipulate the sonar on the ship and emit ultrasonic waves all the time, so these fishmen did not dare to approach.
Seeing the fainted fish-man surface, Kaichi hurriedly controlled the current to pull the fish-man closer, and then used the mage's touch to pull the fish-man onto the boat.
"These fish people are so ugly, are mermaids like this? How can any sailor be tempted? Just thinking about it makes me lose my appetite. ”
Seeing these fish-men, Chester pursed his lips and said with some disgust.
These fish-people are indeed very unsightly, they are said to be fish-people, but they do not have the shape of a human, a huge head, and two big eyes on the head, or left and right separate, and I don't know if I can see clearly what the front looks like. By anime standards, the eyes of these fish-people don't make people feel abrupt.
The fish-man's limbs are a little short compared to the head, but the claws are very sharp, and there are fins on the back.
Overall, these fish-people looked like a big-headed fish with limbs, and Kaichi always felt inexplicably familiar when he looked at them, but he was sure that he was seeing a fish-man for the first time.
It is also unknown if they live in Beechburg.
Lacey walked up to the fish-men and said, "Master Chester, these are fish-people, mermaids are mermaids, and they are not the same thing, although they are both marine species, but fish-people are not considered intelligent species, but are regarded as beasts. ”
As she spoke, seeing that the fish-man seemed to be struggling to wake up, she immediately drew her sword and stabbed the fish-man in the chest, and at the same time slashed at the fish-man's neck. The blood immediately flowed to the deck, and then down the slope towards the side of the ship into the river.
They are now at the junction of the river and the sea, and they don't know whether the water under the boat should be considered river water or sea water, and the salty and light are mixed together, making it difficult to distinguish between them.
Jia Yi dragged up a total of three fishmen, all of whom were taken up by Lacey and fell with a sword, and became a nameless unjust soul under the sword, well, it's not wrong.
After Lacey killed the fish-man, she pointed her sword at the fish-man and said, "There is a good place on these fish-people, which is a rare delicacy. ”
Seeing Jia Yi and them looking at her in surprise, Lacey said, "As I said, these things are not intelligent creatures, they are just beasts, although they have grown limbs, they are not humanoids. If you really want to talk about it, dragons are actually intelligent creatures. ”
If there is an opportunity to eat dragon meat, no mage will refuse, but if it is necessary to eat an animal that looks like a humanoid, people are more likely to be resistant, just as people rarely eat primates such as monkeys and orangutans.
Lacey stepped forward and took out a knife, and then cut off a piece of meat from the fish head, which was the piece of meat behind the eye socket of the fish head.
He had only heard that the cheeks of tuna were rare and delicious, but he didn't expect that it would be the same now.
Seeing the fish handed over by Lacey, Kaichi hesitated slightly, did not refuse, twisted the small piece of fish with his hands, and then put it in his mouth. The entrance of the fish is very tender, there is a soft and fatty feeling, the teeth touch lightly, and the bite opens, but there is still a little tenacity, chewing slowly, there is a little bit of sweetness, and there is a little bit of salty and fresh taste that seems to be seawater, even if there is no condiment, it is also a rare delicacy.
Jia Yi couldn't help but nod and said to the rest of the people, "You guys taste it, it's really delicious." ”
Although there is no soy sauce and mustard, Kaichi feels that it is much more delicious than the Japanese food he ate in his previous life, and of course it may be because he has not eaten good food in his previous life, but he can't think of it, is there really a fish on the earth that can compare to the fish man.
Seeing Jia Yi, he couldn't help but praise it, March and they were all interested, it was the first time they had eaten the fish man, even if Ma Qi's hometown was by the sea, but they had never eaten such a thing as a fish man.
As long as the palace is still in its right mind, it will never purchase ingredients such as fish people, and fish people are not considered an ingredient and will not be sold as ingredients.
After Lacey distributed the fishman's cheek meat to everyone, she began to decompose the fishman, and said while decomposing: "In addition to this piece of cheek meat, the rest of the fishman is also very good, all of them are rare and delicious, especially the fishman's brain oil and the blood in the heart and heart, and the coastal chambers of commerce have paid a lot of money to buy it." ”
Unfortunately, Lacey stabbed the first fish-man with her sword, causing one of the hearts to burst and the blood in the heart was gone.
Fish-Man Heart Blood is a material used to make magic ink, which has a strong affinity for water-based spells, and is relatively cheap, but most of them are only used by mages at the seaside.
The fish-man's brain oil Kaichi didn't know what it was useful for, and now he used it less.
March explained to Jiayi that brain oil is usually used as lamp oil, and it is bright and bright, with a faint fragrance.
Before there was a magic lamp, it was a top-of-the-line lamp oil, and only the whale's brain oil could compare to the lamp oil made by the fishman's brain oil.
Nowadays, fish human brain oil is no longer used for lighting, but some places still use lamps made of fish human or whale brain oil as decorations, which is also considered a tradition.
In addition to this, sometimes aristocratic women will also use these brain oils to apply to their bodies for skin care, and the effect is also very good.
Although there was a sonar to open the way, these fish-men did not go far, and kept patrolling around the ship, unwilling to leave, as if the fish-men they killed had aroused their revenge.
Although sonar can send out ultrasonic waves, the lethality is not strong, especially if the distance is far, the effect will be much worse, and the river here is more complicated, and their boats can't go fast, so Jiayi They can only take turns to be vigilant, lest these fishmen take the opportunity to scuttle the boat again.
Because of the barrier of the lake, most of the spells are not very effective for the fishmen, so Jiayi and they are more likely to drive away than kill these fishmen.
As a result, this fuels the arrogance of these fishmen.
And now these fishmen are also proficient, and they won't get too close, which makes Jiayi and them a little helpless.
