Chapter 337 - 309: Extraordinary Fishman Hero

The Fishman Leader had just turned to leave when the pale-yellow Little Fishman eagerly opened its mouth, chattering away.

"What are you trying to say? Pura, help me translate," Qin Ziwen said. ’The communication between the two races is a major problem,’ he realized.

’Still, there is one solution.’

’I could have both the Fishman Race and the Human Race submit their native languages to the Hundred Schools Book Tower.’

’Then, both sides could send some of their people to learn the other’s language.’

’With the help of the Hundred Schools Book Tower, learning a foreign language shouldn’t be too hard.’

’Once people on both sides have learned the other’s language, they’ll be able to manage simple communication.’

’That’s the first step.’

’The second step is to popularize the languages, ensuring both sides can at least hold a simple conversation.’

’Once I’ve completely tamed this group of Fishmen, I’ll have a force of natural underwater warriors for any future aquatic environments.’

’No matter how well humans can swim, they can’t compare to Fishmen.’

"Master, it says they went to get the tribe’s ultimate weapon."

Qin Ziwen’s eyebrow shot up, his interest piqued. ’To have survived the Thousand-Eyed Death God’s repeated attacks until now, this group of Fishmen must have an ace up their sleeve.’

He put the White Coral in his mouth and followed the Little Fishman out of the temple.

By the faint fluorescent light of the coral, he saw muddy waves churning on the distant seabed. Amid the gloom, a massive dark shadow was slowly rising.

’That silhouette and size...’

’It feels so familiar.’

Qin Ziwen subconsciously retreated, pulling Red Hare in front of him for protection.

Red Hare’s lips curled back, its ears pinned flat, and its eyes widened in alarm.

On the seabed not far away, a Thousand-Eyed Snake was crushing reefs as it slowly rose.

Its massive body slid past the coral reef, its sinister scales reflecting a dim, cold luster.

Wherever it passed, the Fishmen all retreated to make way.

Qin Ziwen continued to back away, preparing to open a Node at any moment.

However, as the Thousand-Eyed Snake drew closer, he sensed something was off.

When he used his Insight, it was as if he’d cast a stone into the ocean—there was no feedback at all.

Although its body was massive, compared to the agile Thousand-Eyed Snake from before, this one’s movements were unnaturally stiff. Every twist was awkward and halting.

When it was finally close, Qin Ziwen got a clear look.

’This Thousand-Eyed Snake is definitely not a living creature!’

Its scales were covered in stitched-up marks, its body was pitted and uneven, and many scales had fallen off, showing severe wear.

Its eye sockets had been gouged into two black holes, exuding an aura of decay and death.

Every one of its movements was stiff.

In terms of size alone, it was nearly sixty meters long, a full size larger than the living snake from before.

A chill went through Qin Ziwen. ’So the Fishman Race actually has this kind of trick up their sleeve.’

’Are they planning to use a Thousand-Eyed Snake to fight a Thousand-Eyed Snake?’

’But a living Thousand-Eyed Snake has all sorts of Extraordinary abilities. I wonder how many of them this dead thing has retained.’

This Thousand-Eyed Snake carcass seemed to be getting used to its new body.

The Fishman Leader, including those of the Sacrificial Race, had all disappeared.

In the center of the area, only the moving Thousand-Eyed Snake carcass remained.

Qin Ziwen scanned his surroundings, his gaze finally returning to the carcass.

’The vanished Sacrificial Race might be connected to the sudden appearance of this Thousand-Eyed Snake carcass,’ he guessed.

Standing beside him, Cao Biansheng’s eyes lit up when he saw the giant snake. A possibility occurred to him.

He gently tugged on the President’s arm. After returning to the temple, Cao Biansheng said, "President, I suspect the reason that Thousand-Eyed Snake appeared here is that it was drawn by this one’s scent. Otherwise, the deep sea is vast; there’s no reason for it to suddenly show up here."

Qin Ziwen nodded slowly. He’d had the same suspicion.

Just then, the Thousand-Eyed Snake’s remains slowly swam toward the underwater temple and gradually opened its massive maw.

Seeing the snake’s mouth open, Du Yu and the others quickly moved out of the way.

From between its jaws, a powerful figure pushed the upper and lower mandibles apart and swam out.

It was none other than the Fishman Leader who had just disappeared.

After appearing, the Fishman Leader entered the temple.

Pura translated, "Master, he says this is a Snake Puppet left by their ancestors. During battle, an Extraordinary Fishman needs to enter it to control it.

When the fight starts in a bit, we shouldn’t get too close. If they fail, we must flee immediately. If the Thousand-Eyed Snake is heavily wounded, we might have a chance to land the finishing blow."

Qin Ziwen’s eyes narrowed as a chill went through him. ’The Fishman Leader is offering us the final blow. That means he knows we can get Cards by landing the final hit on a monster.’

’Of course, the Fishman ancestors were once residents of Tuiyuan, so it’s not surprising he knows. He must be offering us the kill on purpose.’

After the Fishman Leader finished speaking, he slipped back into the Snake Puppet’s giant mouth. Once he was inside, the Snake Puppet closed its mouth, its body swayed, and it began to swim its massive frame slowly to the south.

Qin Ziwen narrowed his eyes and took out the Recruitment Card he had just obtained.

’A great battle is about to begin. Any extra strength will increase our chances of victory.’

’Whatever the Fishman Leader is planning, any Recruiter I summon through my Home will be 100% loyal.’

He left the temple and crushed the Advanced Recruitment Card.

BOOM—

A violet-gold light spread out, instantly engulfing a large area and making the surrounding seawater shimmer like a violet-gold solution, boiling and churning violently.

Not far away, the Fishmen who hadn’t yet dispersed all turned their heads to look.

They sensed an aura that made their bodies tremble, but was also somewhat familiar.

Lorne sensed something, and with a quick slide, he warily ducked behind Qin Ziwen, peeking out with half his head.

Qin Ziwen lifted his head, his face illuminated by the violet-gold light.

The light slowly receded like a tide.

A majestic and powerful figure emerged from the depths of the light and shadow.

It stood there silently, its entire body covered in deep blue, enamel-like skin that looked cold and hard. In the faint light, it had a subtle matte sheen.

Its figure was somewhat similar to the Fishman Leader’s, but it was more majestic and lean, possessing the perfect proportions of an apex predator.

The deltoids and trapezius muscles on its shoulders and neck were extremely developed, bulging and stacking like mountain ridges.

From a distance, its upper body resembled a powerful, explosive inverted triangle.

Its head was square and heavy, with a broad jaw and a clearly visible bite structure. A pair of gilded, vertical pupils were set deep within its eye sockets.

As the water flowed past its broad jaw, several pale gray, ravine-like lines ran like rifts down the smooth curve of its neck. They continued across its undulating, mountain-like chest before disappearing between its abdominal muscles.

Simply by standing there, it exuded a powerful aura of pressure.

[Extraordinary·Gloomy Reef Peak·Fishman (Mogu): ☆★★★★]: Level 4 Deep Sea Physique, Level 4 Coral Skin, Level 4 Abyssal Firmness, Level 4 Vengeful Vortex.

The distant Fishmen swished their tails uneasily, staring in terror at this strange new Fishman.

Mogu turned, and his seven-meter-tall body dropped to one knee.

Although he was kneeling in the mid-water currents, it gave Qin Ziwen the sense that he was as solid as if rooted to the seabed itself.

Its abdomen undulated, and a deep, powerful voice emerged, "Mogu, at your service, Master."
