Chapter 1373: Chapter 1373: iyin Ugly Fish
When the waters of Crescent Lake had dwindled to a small pool, a giant bizarre fish with a peculiar appearance leapt from the lake, propelling itself into the air. With its mouth wide open, it directed a deafening roar at Qin Sisi and Ye You.
Qin Sisi and Ye You instinctively covered their ears. The power of the roar was imnse, leaving them dizzy and with surging blood, nearly causing them to stagger and lose balance.
If it were a creature with lesser magic power, it might have directly coughed up blood and died.
Moreover, the impact of the roar was not solely aid at living beings, even the lake water was affected.
Suddenly, the remaining water at the bottom of Crescent Lake was agitated by the roar of the giant bizarre fish and spouted up, transforming into sharp water arrows that shot towards the two opponents on the bank.
Ye You’s eyes narrowed, and he imdiately conjured a Copper Iron Wall magic shield before himself and Qin Sisi. The water arrows struck the magic shield, producing crisp collision sounds, but ultimately failed to penetrate Ye You’s magic shield.
Seeing that its dual attack plan had failed to take effect, the giant bizarre fish was both alard and enraged. It quickly dove back into the remaining lake water, attempting to hide temporarily and buy so ti to devise a strategy.
However, Ye You and Qin Sisi wouldn’t give him that ti.
"One’s Full Strength!" Ye You shouted in a deep voice, releasing the brown Earth Attribute Magic Power, forming a massive stone block above the water, pressing down heavily onto the lake as if it were a small mountain.
The giant bizarre fish was taken aback; this couldn’t be good. If it remained under the water any longer, it would surely be crushed into fish patties, so it had no choice but to leap out from the water once again, landing on a moist lakeside.
Qin Sisi had already prepared, and as soon as the giant bizarre fish leaped out of the water, her fingers, infused with magic power, plucked the strings of the Granite Zither. It had attacked her with Music Magic, and now she’d retaliate in kind.
Purple Magic Light danced across the strings of the Granite Zither, gradually forming sharp light arrows that, under the control of the music, shot toward the giant bizarre fish.
The giant bizarre fish was greatly startled and quickly leapt to a water-filled area, emitting a loud roar at the water again.
Relying on the sa old skill, the water, under the giant bizarre fish’s roar, transford into arrows to et Qin Sisi’s purple light arrows, launched using Music Magic.
The purple light arrows collided with the green water arrows, shattering and disappearing almost simultaneously.
Just as the giant bizarre fish secretly celebrated its narrow escape, another burst of urgent, ornate zither music rang out. The purple light arrows reford, speeding toward the giant bizarre fish as their target.
Panic seized the giant bizarre fish, forcing it to roar once more at the lake water, but after two rounds of turning water into arrows, the already depleted lake was nearly exhausted, leaving fewer arrows to form.
As the light arrows and water arrows clashed again, they vanished together upon impact, yet there were more light arrows than water ones. When all water arrows disappeared, a few light arrows still shot toward the giant bizarre fish.
"Ah!" The purple light arrows struck the giant bizarre fish’s body, eliciting a bright scream. The sound was indeed sweet and lodious, akin to a young maiden’s whispered song or a perched oriole singing from the treetops.
The giant bizarre fish, hit by the light arrows, floundered near the lake’s muddy edge, rolling over twice due to the arrows’ impact, its body now covered in mud.
Qin Sisi and Ye You swiftly closed in to examine the giant bizarre fish’s condition.
The fish was about three ters long, resembling the rmaid Tribe in structure, with a humanoid upper body and a gigantic fish tail at the lower half.
However, unlike the rmaid Tribe whose people are always attractive, this fish was unbelievably ugly.
Its body’s surface was blue, unlike other fish, as it lacked scales, with the entire body sleek and plain, only reflecting a not-so-deep blue, appearing extrely strange.
Its head was pointed and narrow, with two tiny eyes like little green beans darting around, and a wide chin with a large mouth that nearly spanned its entire face.
Qin Sisi could hardly fathom how such a beautiful voice could erge from such a mouth.
"What are you? Why did you try to harm ?" Qin Sisi asked sternly, her expression severe.
The giant bizarre fish’s eyes rolled a few tis before speaking, "I... I am iyin Ugly Fish. I was just hungry and wanted sothing to eat."
Qin Sisi was slightly stunned. From the voice alone, one would think it was a coquettish young girl’s tender voice, never suspecting it ca from such an unsightly fish.
Its na truly spoke for itself, iyin Ugly Fish, possessing a lodious voice yet a strange, ugly appearance, proving that indeed, the creator is fair.
Qin Sisi continued to inquire, "Do you often eat the creatures that pass by here?"
"Well..." iyin Ugly Fish’s eyes flicked around for a long ti without speaking, and Qin Sisi realized she had guessed right.
Just as she was about to reprimand this murderous iyin Ugly Fish, it suddenly spoke, "I know I was wrong. I’ll never dare again. Please, spare , I’m begging you."
Qin Sisi was speechless, as the voice was both sweet and coy, coquettishly pleading like a twelve-year-old girl playfully sulking, its breathy delivery sparking fanciful thoughts.
If Qin Sisi was a man who hadn’t witnessed the true face of the voice’s owner, he might have waved generously and said, "Since you’re young and ignorant, I’ll let it go this ti!"
Unfortunately, Qin Sisi was a woman, and as she stared at iyin Ugly Fish’s bizarre, ugly face, she eyed Ye You, a man, teasingly, only to find Ye You with a disgusted expression, almost rolling his eyes.
"You two are magic masters, super handso guy, peerless beauty, surely you’re magnanimous and won’t mind this little ugly fish..." iyin Ugly Fish continued sweet-talking Qin Sisi and Ye You.
"Enough," Ye You couldn’t listen anymore and interrupted coldly, "I’ll spare you, but answer a few questions. Answer well, and I won’t kill you, answer poorly, and there’s no rcy."
iyin Ugly Fish shivered and promptly replied, "Alright, alright, I understand, super handso guy, what would you like to ask?"
Suppressing his disgust, Ye You asked in a deep voice, "What is this place?"
iyin Ugly Fish replied imdiately, "This is the Deep Pupil Desert, and this lake is called Crescent Lake."
Ye You was noncommittal, as he already knew they were in the Deep Pupil Desert, with the first question rely testing iyin Ugly Fish.
After pondering briefly, he asked the second question, "How long have you been living here?"
iyin Ugly Fish thought for a mont before answering, "I’ve lived here for nearly a thousand years. I’m not sure how I arrived here, but ever since I can rember, I’ve been here."
