CHAPTER 363: CHAPTER 203: FISHMAN RACE WUWUWU, AWUU APPEARS!
[Name: Fishman Race (Gray Box)]
[Race: Ordinary Monster]
[Description: The Fishman Race is a mutated species that appeared after being polluted by magic. They can survive out of water for a short period, have a small physique, and a frightening appearance. Fishmen generally live by the coast and can also survive in river areas inland. They have relatively low attack power but exist in large numbers, often acting in groups.]
[As the tribe is built by the coast, if danger arises, mermaids will choose to jump into the sea to avoid risks, thus possessing a strong ability to conceal themselves.]
[Seeing a single fishman by the coast often means there’s a fishman tribe behind them. Don’t provoke fishmen, as they will bring the entire tribe to avenge.]
Taking advantage of the last two days before the term begins, Shami plans to revive the Fishman Race.
The gray box indicates the race has already been extinct.
"How could the Fishman Race also become extinct? What exactly did Luwaka do?"
Shami couldn’t help but frown.
Looking at the information, even if a hero comes to crusade, the Fishman Race that can escape into the sea should not face extinction.
[The Glorious Record of the Fishman Race’s Extinction]
"There’s even something like this. Is it a record similar to a monument of achievements?"
[During the reign of the 70 previous Demon Kings, the Fishman Race was never extinct and was one of the few monsters in history that never stopped reproducing. During the reign of the 71st Demon King, Luwaka, they were hunted to extinction by an adventurer party.]
"Ah, 70 generations of history, just ended in Luwaka’s hands, just hearing it brings a subtle sadness."
[In the confrontation with the hero, the Fishman Race from the sea took on important roles, becoming crucial in the battle against the hero. Near the end of the war, Luwaka gathered all the Fishman Race, dividing them into three armies, each numbering over a hundred thousand.]
Fishmen are the most common monsters among water species, holding a similar status to Slimes and goblins in land species.
"Looking at it this way, the Fishman Race used to be very numerous, so how did they become extinct?"
Shami looked carefully.
[In the three armies, Luwaka dispatched the first Fishman army as a vanguard for a counter-attack, invading the Royal Capital of the Fess Kingdom, Rikamai City, which was closest to the Demon King Castle.]
[Over a hundred thousand fishmen infiltrated the underground sewer systems of Rikamai City, flooding the city and destroying all the toilets in every household, while crippling the entire sewer infrastructure of the city. If the operation succeeded, Rikamai City would fall into a crisis where waste had nowhere to be disposed of, the air would be filled with stench, and the Fess Kingdom would become a stinking kingdom.]
[A stormy night provided the best opportunity for invasion. A hundred thousand fishmen, carrying hammers to destroy toilets, infiltrated the sewers of Rikamai City.]
[No one noticed the anomalies in the sewers, and the infiltration was quite successful until the Fishman army reached underground in the industrial area. Numerous unauthorized sewer outlets not on the official city plans discharged torrents of pitch-black wastewater. The water quality in the pipes deteriorated rapidly to a level unbearable for the Fishman Race, and all the fishmen failed to escape, perishing in the sewers of the Fess Kingdom.]
[A series of bizarre occurrences happened in Rikamai City: toilets suddenly appeared with corroded remnants of fish bones; every household’s sewer seemed to resound with the sound of fish flailing; strange dead fish bodies floated on the moat for a whole month.]
"Turns out it was the illegal factory sewage that saved the Royal Capital!"
Shami felt heartbroken for the deceased fishmen.
"However, Luwaka still took on a bit of the Demon King’s responsibility."
[With the previous lesson in mind, Luwaka dispatched the second Fishman army as a deep-sea expedition team, heading to the vast seas outside the Aireland Continent, seeking the legendary beautiful Mermaid Race. Luwaka intended to propose to the mermaid princess of the Mermaid Race, forming an alliance through marriage.
The second Fishman army set off with Luwaka’s carefully retouched photographs and engagement invitations.]
"What kind of lesson is this! Luwaka definitely wanted to taste the mermaid! Already leaving with engagement items!"
Shami gradually understood that the Mermaid Race and Fishman Race are not the same species, with the former being an independent natural race, and the latter belonging to the demonic race as ordinary monsters.
The differences are obvious too; the Mermaid Race has a human upper body and fish lower body, with their women generally possessing excellent looks, known as mermaids.
Of course, the Fishman Race is not a bizarre existence with a fish upper body and human lower body; rather, it’s like a fish underwent mutation, developing limbs on a fish’s body, retaining most fish traits, with dorsal fins like sharp spikes and more pronounced gills.
[Later, from a message in a bottle picked up on the shore, it was known that in the first month after setting out to sea, the Fishman army drifted across the sea, repeatedly encountering hurricanes and schools of carnivorous sharks, with a third of the fishmen dying tragically. In the second month at sea, the Fishman army encountered the Mermaid Race, and due to their ugly appearance, they were deemed heretics by the Mermaid Race, leading to the remaining fishmen being entirely annihilated. The second Fishman army was completely wiped out.]
"How tragic."
Shami sighed.
"Then what about the last Fishman army?"
