Fang Hao, who was using the Demon Doll to kill the Fishn, also noticed the situation over here.
The Fishn High Priest, a purple hero.
That is, the Fishman who previously held a wooden staff in the lake.
His appearance was not much different from that of an ordinary spiky Fishman.
Beyond his tattered gray robe, armor resembling a Heart-Preserving Mirror hung at his chest, and below that was a tal skirt armor.
A necklace made of broken bones and seaweed hung around his neck.
It looked sowhat disordered, yet it was the most fully equipped among the Fishn.
The two Water Elental heroes exchanged glances and unleashed their magic at the sa ti.
Beiyehu extended his hand, and imdiately a turbulent, swirling flow of water ford underwater, rushing towards the 'Fishn High Priest'.
The High Priest pushed his wooden staff forward, creating a curtain of water to shield himself.
Then, with crossed hands, he pointed forward.
A column of water erged, compressing the surrounding water and surging toward 'Beiyehu'.
Beiyehu's serpent tail moved swiftly, dodging the attack.
The 'Mirror Image' skill activated once again.
The originally summoned duplicates shattered and once again condensed into four identical duplicates.
Four duplicates, five figures in total, simultaneously perford the summoning action.
Whoosh!
In an instant, twenty 'Water Elental Servants' continuously appeared around them.
Seeing this scene, the face of the Fishn High Priest instantly changed.
In his eyes, surprise and fear erged.
The duplicates and nurous Water Elentals began a frenzied attack on the 'Fishn High Priest'.
Water bullets and water arrows, these low-level, quickly condensed magic spells, were intensely shot at him.
This forced the 'Fishn High Priest' to hurriedly respond.
And the real 'Beiyehu', under the cover of the duplicates and Water Elentals, quickly closed in on the 'Fishn High Priest'.
It seed he was preparing for close combat.
The Fishn High Priest did not expect his opponent to be able to release magic in such a manner.
After frantically dodging the water magic attacks, he turned to flee.
"Ah~!"
The approaching 'Beiyehu' humd softly.
The 'Sea Tribe's "Soothing" skill' activated, causing the Fishn High Priest's body to stiffen instantly, and he bizarrely turned and swam head-on towards them.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!
The rapidly shot water arrows instantly hit the priest, piercing several wounds.
The mont the Fishn High Priest regained consciousness,
The approaching 'Beiyehu', with the 'Wave Slash' skill activated, directly severed his head with a sword.
A Fishn's head separated from the body and floated upwards toward the surface of the water.
Fang Hao, using the perspective of the Demon Doll, saw it quite clearly.
At this mont, his expression also revealed surprise.
Just like that, a purple hero was beheaded?
The Fishn High Priest was actually not weak.
He had various Water Elental Skills, seemingly even more than 'Beiyehu'.
Especially that 'Water Curtain' which could actually block a skill.
But there was still a significant difference between the Fishn High Priest and 'Beiyehu'.
Beiyehu's skills resembled a combination punch from a video ga.
They were a set used in combination.
Once the skills were in effect, there was basically no chance to resist.
Adding the 'Soothing' skill for control and the 'Wave Cut Sword' for close combat burst.
He was directly taken out in one go.
The death of the priest also affected the nearby Fishn.
More Fishn were still entangled with Skeletons.
Beiyehu rejoined the fight, killing those Fishn.
The battle continued.
The entire lake turned red, filled with the corpses of white bones and Fishn.
…
Two hours later.
Theo!
Beiyehu erged above the water surface, revealing his small head.
His body remained underwater, indistinguishable from a human.
"Sir, all the Fishn have been eliminated," Beiyehu spoke.
Fang Hao nodded, "Good job. Have the soldiers clean up the battlefield and look for any buildings like Temples."
"Yes, sir," Beiyehu leaped up and dove back into the water.
The remaining Skeleton Warriors began to move.
So started transporting items used by the Fishn from underwater, while others salvaged the corpses of the Fishn.
The Fishn's living environnt was quite primitive.
The items brought up consisted of stone, beast bones, and shells.
The only thing that could be considered ironware was their weapons.
Then, two Skeleton Warriors walked up from the underwater.
They carried a 'Gold Treasure Chest'.
Another Gold Treasure Chest.
Fang Hao felt nothing particular, but Li Rong's face was full of joy.
Getting two Gold Treasure Chests at once.
Even if placed in the channel, there are very few who could achieve this.
Fang Hao signaled Li Rong to open it.
She did not hesitate, stepping forward to directly open the treasure chest.
[Received: Agile White Steel Heart-Preserving Armor Blueprint (Blue), Agile White Steel Skirt Armor Blueprint (Blue), Agile White Steel Headgear Blueprint (Blue), Agile White Steel Armguard Blueprint (Blue), White Steel Harpoon Blueprint (Blue), Sea Scale Stone 22, Warfire Coin 185.]
Another batch of white steel type blueprints.
White steel is the standard material for blue blueprints.
Basically, using white steel as the material would classify them as blue level.
The 'Agile White Steel Set', standard equipnt of the Fishn Tribe.
The one worn by the 'Fishn High Priest' earlier was this set of equipnt.
Above the body was a piece of Heart-Preserving Armor, that is, a round iron armor fastened at the chest.
The lower part was a skirt armor, which provided additional protection.
Besides the set blueprint, there was also a "White Steel Trident Blueprint," which didn't seem like it would be used often.
The shore was filled with tridents, enough for use over a period of ti.
After inspecting the equipnt, he directly collected the blueprints.
Soon, the body of the Fishn High Priest was also carried up by several skeletons.
Besides the body, there was also the Priest's wooden staff and a conch.
Fang Hao took the staff and closely inspected it.
The staff was the weapon of the Fishn Priest, an odd stick that was thick at both ends and thinned in the middle, about the thickness of an arm.
At the top, various shells, bone fragnts, and other items were tied with a thin hemp rope.
With a clatter, a whole bunch fell down.
[Servant's Phalanx (Purple)]
[Category: Bone Staff]
[Effect: Water Elental Magic damage 20%, Water Elental Magic casting cost -30%.]
(Description: A bone staff crafted from a "Distant Phalanx," exuding a strong Water Elental energy.)
The item information surprised Fang Hao.
Is this a phalanx?
How is that possible?
The staff itself was as tall as a person; if it was just a phalanx, the original owner of this bone must have been enormous.
And how did it end up in the hands of the Fishn?
"What's the matter?" Li Rong and the others ca over.
Fang Hao asked, "What is ant by 'Distant Phalanx'?"
Li Rong looked at her own palm and pointed to the top joint of her index finger, "Here, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, it's just a phalanx, specifically a distant one."
"How could that be?"
Li Rong and the others also showed surprised expressions.
Passing the bone staff to Li Rong to examine, Fang Hao turned his attention to the conch.
[Conch Horn (Blue)]
[Category: Horn]
[Effect: When blown, boosts allies' morale by 5%, Movent Speed by 10%, and attack by 2%.]
(Description: The Sea God will grant us the power to forge ahead.)
A horn, indeed!
During the battle, he seed to have seen the Fishn Priest blowing the horn.
The horns of various clans varied sowhat.
The Beast Clan and Human Clan often made horns from animal horns.
The Undead used war drums, while the Sea Tribe used these kinds of conch shells.
Different types, but the effects were essentially the sa.
Plop!
At this mont, "Beiyehu" also swam up from underwater, speaking, "My lord, at the east side of the lake, I've discovered a location that might be the temple you're looking for."
"What does it look like?" Fang Hao asked.
Beiyehu answered, "A giant stone gate; I haven't found a way to enter, but if there's a 'Temple' underwater, it's very likely behind the stone gate."
Fang Hao glanced at Li Rong.
He nodded and said, "Good, let's all rest for half an hour, then go down and take a look."
...
By rest, he actually ant transporting equipnt.
Fang Hao repeatedly opened several Gates of the Worlds, moving piles of steel tridents and bodies into the gate.
The entire lakeshore was suddenly much emptier, only a layer of fresh red blood remained, slowly flowing like a river.
After handling the miscellaneous matters.
Fang Hao released the "Warrior Doll" again and said to "Beiyehu," "Beiyehu, let's go check out that stone gate."
"Yes, my lord," Beiyehu walked towards the lake.
Together they entered the water, with Fang Hao holding onto the "snake waist" of Beiyehu, quickly diving towards the lake bottom.
The lake bottom wasn't as beautiful as one might imagine.
Not only were there hardly any fish, but it was also muddy and filthy, filled with holes dug out by the Fishn.
Heading east!
Soon, they arrived at the stone gate Beiyehu had found.
It was a stone gate built into the shore wall, tightly closed and engraved with many reliefs on the surface.
Gently brushing off the surface mud and seaweed, one could see the pattern of a giant deity overlooking nurous Fishn believers.
So, it really was a temple.
A temple associated with the Fishn.
Fang Hao tried to open the stone gate, but it wouldn't budge, not even slightly shaking.
It was as if soone had placed a fake door on the stone wall.
The two stopped using brute force.
They began looking for a way to open it.
...
On the lakeshore.
Fang Hao was relaying the situation below to the others.
"Can't open it?" Li Rong asked.
"Yes, we still haven't found a way to get in."
"What about explosives? Just blow it open," Anjia suggested from the side.
"That wouldn't be good. Not to ntion whether our explosives would be effective underwater, if we cause a collapse, it would be even more troubleso," Fang Hao shook his head.
Anjia thought for a mont, "Use the Iron Claw Rat, just dig a hole."
The Iron Claw Rat could dig through hard rock.
That could be worth trying.
"Let's keep looking, if we still can't find a way, we'll try using the Iron Claw Rat."
Of course, having the Iron Claw Rat work underwater was not feasible, they could only dig from the shore down.
That would be a substantial amount of work.
...
While they were discussing above.
Below, "Beiyehu" discovered an important detail.
Beiyehu, pointing at a relief on the giant stone gate, said, "My lord, look here, isn't there a hollow?"
Indeed, on the relief of a Fishn Priest, the position of a raised hand had a circular hollow.
Fang Hao frowned, recalling the 'Phalanx Bone Staff' in his mind.
