CHAPTER 38: CHAPTER 38: DRAGON BLOOD REDFISH, A HUGE PROFIT

Leaving the territory, heading south.

A 10-kilometer journey isn’t far, but in the swamp, one must always be wary of danger.

This also results in a slower pace, taking more than two hours even at full speed.

The barbarians follow along, mainly as a precaution.

Halfway through the journey, while passing through a waist-high reed field, a buzzing sound like muffled thunder came from the sky.

The sound approached quickly, and everyone felt as if a heavy stone had been placed on their hearts.

Lear looked up and saw a massive black cloud blocking the sky.

Mosquitoes!

Countless mosquitoes!

Their numbers were overwhelming, forming a terrifying black tide that blocked the sky.

Their wingspans exceeded 20 centimeters, and their bodies were about the size of a third of a fist.

With black and white spots, their sharp mouthparts resembled steel needles.

Shockingly, these mosquitoes were carrying a ten-meter-long brown-spotted giant python, swiftly sweeping across the sky.

The sight sent chills down one’s spine.

Blood Mosquito

[Level]:Level 3

[Potential]:1 Star

[Racial Talent]:Bloodthirsty and Carnivorous, with an extreme craving for meat, capable of devouring meat with their mouthparts and bringing it back to their lair.

[Skills]:Paralysis (1 Star) Attacks with mouthparts incapacitate enemies, causing them to lose consciousness.

[Evaluation]:An unbearable insect.

The attributes of a single Blood Mosquito are quite ordinary, but in such exaggerated numbers, they become extremely frightening.

Mosquitoes, unlike wasps, are not social insects and do not form groups to build nests.

But now, it seems anything is possible in this Fantasy World.

When the mosquito tide that passed from the flank disappeared from sight, Lear took a deep breath.

The pressure in his heart quietly increased.

Although Weilu City now had some foundation, the swamp was fraught with peril, and it needed more development to truly stand firm.

Flying Dragon, Mire Wasp, Two-headed Ogre, Rotting Centaur, Foul Giant Demon... now there was also the Blood Mosquito, all sources of danger.

The territory seemed stable at the moment, but a crisis could erupt at any time.

The upgrade and development pace needed to be accelerated!

And then there’s the Authority of the Swamp, the power belonging to the Divine Spirit, which must be obtained quickly.

As Lear pondered, he urged the troops to march faster, aiming to capture the Dragonblood Red Fish by this morning.

About half an hour later, they passed through an area reeking of foulness and accumulated sludge.

The soil rolled, with many pieces of Blood Mosquito remains visible on the ground.

In the central area, there were large traces of the giant python’s writhing.

That giant python was clearly killed by the Blood Mosquito here.

Mosquitoes kill a python!

Madness and fantasy.

Continuing in this direction, more battle traces were discovered.

But on the ground, only bloodstains and a lot of dried bones remained, with all flesh devoured and taken away by the Blood Mosquito.

Everyone’s eyes were serious, no one spoke.

Even the barbarians trembled inwardly, casting aside any envy for the swamp.

Luckily, the Hisham tribe was far from the swamp... otherwise, an insect disaster of this scale could easily devastate or even destroy them!

No wonder few people established territories around swamps, it’s too dangerous.

The monsters on the road were cleared by the Blood Mosquito, making the journey smoother.

At nine in the morning, after passing through a low grass area, Lear saw a turbid pool over two hundred meters in diameter.

The water was murky, and it was impossible to see the bottom.

In the central area, large and small bubbles continuously emerged, along with turbulent muddy water flowing out.

This is it!

Lear exhaled, looking at the Bubble Beast.

"Bobo, the Dragonblood Red Fish is hidden in the water, but we currently lack the means to capture it... do you have any ideas?"

Bobo puffed up its chest and responded in a childish voice.

"Master, we can use bubbles to isolate the mud and water, driving the fish to a small area."

"Then we can capture them..."

Having fish as food gives them unique methods.

Lear petted the little creature’s head, encouraging it.

"Bobo looks quite formidable, come on, scoop out those Dragonblood Red Fish..."

He’s also curious, what makes the 3 Star value fish special.

Encouraged, Bobo became excited and led other Bubble Beasts to the edge of the murky water.

Whoosh~ began blowing bubbles into the air.

In a blink, a three-meter-high bubble was inflated by them, then appeared a magical scene as the Bubble Beast stepped forward, entering directly into the bubble.

And the bubble didn’t pop.

Gurulu~ the bubble rolled down directly into the water.

These little creatures sailed like tiny boats, riding the bubble toward the pond’s center.

Lear was a bit stunned... is that even possible?!

After reaching the center, the Bubble Beasts cheerfully began blowing bubbles one by one.

The bubbles expanded to a three-meter diameter, dropping into the water like stones, sinking quickly to the bottom.

Each Bubble Beast could control up to 20 bubbles.

These 10 Bubble Beasts meant 200 bubbles... a significant number indeed.

Successive bubbles dropped into the water, moving like a fishing net.

With sharp eyes, Lear saw a bubble capturing a group of fish as it swept through an area, the bubble contracting like a sunken net, trapping the surrounding fish inside.

Inside, the fish struggled to escape as if trapped in a steel cage, their efforts futile.

Lear was amazed.

Such a method of catching fish, so dazzling!

The bubbles multiplied, connecting underwater into a mass, gradually driving the fish from left to right.

bubbles fully operational.

From the bank where Lear stood, the fish were noticeably more active.

Constantly leaping from the water, causing ripples to spread.

But they were just common fish, large maybe, but nothing extraordinary.

Dragonblood Red Fish... Dragonblood Red Fish... where are they?

The bubbles closed in, narrowing the water area.

The fish became more agitated.

But when they closed in to a ten-meter area, the bubbles overflowed, even covering the surface with more bubbles.

One could see some bubbles nearly filled with captured fish.

When they were a few meters from the bank, suddenly a pure red fish leaped out, trying to jump over the bubble net.

But the next moment, it plunged into a bubble, becoming trapped.

At first sight of that fish, Lear knew that he had achieved his objective for this trip!

The pure red fish, as bright as blood.

About a meter long, with long whiskers on either side of its mouth resembling a dragon’s whiskers.

With scales the size of a third of a palm, it gave off a sacred feel.

Upon closer approach, an aura of Dragon’s Might was faintly felt on its body.

Swimming, it seemed like an extraordinary entity.

Dragonblood Red Fish (Magic Lifeform)

[Traits]:1. Exquisite taste, extremely delicious meat, a delicacy on Earth.

2. Strengthens, consuming it permanently increases physical strength.

[Introduction]:After the death of an ancient Giant Dragon, its blood was devoured by fish schools, evolving into Dragonblood Red Fish.

Star Magic Lifeform!!

This haul is worth it!

Just then, the surrounding bubbles, like a predator opening its mouth wide, suddenly expanded, covering the entire bank’s water area.

The fish inside had no time to react, already caught by the bubbles.

Crunch~ Crunch~

Each bubble burst.

Many small fish were released back into the swamp.

Larger fish were concentrated into several bubbles.

The most eye-catching were three bubbles... dozens of over a meter long, brightly colored Dragonblood Red Fish glistened brightly.

Seeing this scene, Lear’s face broke into a radiant smile.

Dozens of 2 Star Magic Lifeforms, what a huge profit this haul is!!
