Looking in the direction of Timothy's line of sight, Shado quickly spotted a cloud of blood suddenly appearing on the water in front of him. At the same time, the ship also began to slow down.
After a while, blood flowers appeared on the water one after another. At this time, Xia Duo suddenly realized a problem. As a land creature, humans can use various methods to encircle and suppress land creatures on land.
But it's not easy in the water. Even if you know the location of the target, you still have to go into the water to fight. In terms of underwater combat, Xia Duo has not seen any water combat spells.
In the same way, there is also air combat. Although humans can fly to the sky, they are not as flexible as creatures born to fly. Of course, compared to water, air combat may be slightly simpler.
After all, it is easy to attack air targets on the ground.
In water, since most spells are not adapted to the water environment, the interference of the water will greatly reduce the effectiveness of the spells.
Looking at it this way, it makes sense for Archmage Timothy to choose to control the fishmen to fight indirectly. What should he do if he faced this situation?
Just when Xia Duo was thinking about this problem, the underwater battle was almost over.
Timothy turned around again, looked at Xia Duo, and made a new request, "Lord Xia Duo, please search again. I found that there is something abnormal about the fishmen here."
"Abnormal? What abnormality?" Xia Duo asked.
"You'll know soon."
While the two were talking, a wave of waves suddenly appeared in front of the ship. Three or four fish-men were working together to restrain a struggling fish-man from the water.
Looking at the struggling murloc, Xia Duo suddenly thought of what First Officer Russ had said yesterday. The murloc bandits had water plants wrapped around their bodies, and the leader was holding a stone spear.
The struggling murloc was covered in aquatic plants, but the problem was that the other murlocs that were holding it were removing the aquatic plants from its body. Xia Duo could see it very clearly——
Those aquatic plants clearly grow on the fishmen!
And when the aquatic plants on the fish-man's body were completely pulled out, it stopped struggling at all, as if it was dead, but it was not dead, and its tail was still swinging unconsciously.
Is this the abnormality that the Archmage mentioned?
Sha Duo suddenly felt that he seemed to be involved in something that he shouldn't be involved in. Just when he was about to leave, Archmage Timothy suddenly said:
"Lord Xia Duo, you see, those aquatic plants, it seems that those aquatic plants gave these fish-men wisdom, or in other words, those aquatic plants allowed these fish-men to regain their wisdom. No matter who did this, the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce must definitely We will pursue it to the end!”
Neither did Xia Duo answer, nor did he not answer. Fortunately, the Archmage then said: "This matter has nothing to do with you, Lord Xia Duo, and the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce is unwilling to involve you. If Lord Xia Duo wants to leave, If so, you can leave now."
leave? Or not to leave?
Xia Duo thought about it. Obviously, Timothy said it generously, but if he really leaves, he will definitely make a mark in the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce. Xia Duo does not want to offend such a mysterious person who has a mysterious background and has worked with many great arcana people. A big chamber of commerce that everyone wants to cooperate with.
On the other hand, without his appearance, perhaps the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce would not have discovered the anomalies in the murloc farm at all. Considering that these murloc slimes will eventually be supplied to the Great Arcanist Horn of Kiran Tower, whether any of them There are hidden dangers, which are difficult to judge.
And if Shado was the only one who appeared at Lake Macht yesterday, then Shado would also clean up the fishmen. Of course, he wouldn't be able to clean them up as efficiently as Archmage Timothy, but Shado's bloodline ability would allow him to do it in the water. Without normal activities, let alone controlling the water, there are many ways to clean it up.
But in this case, all thunder must be resisted by Xia Duo himself. No matter who arranged these aquatic intelligent fish-men, they must be retrieved if they are destroyed by Xia Duo.
In fact, the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce will come after him because he destroyed the breeding farm, which is really sad.
Fortunately, the actual situation is not that bad, but it is not very optimistic. The best way is to find a group with the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce, and at the worst, we need to find out who is behind this.
Many thoughts flashed through Xia Duo's mind, and without any hesitation, Xia Duo smiled and said: "The Archmage underestimated me. Since I have agreed to help with the search, I will definitely help him to the end. Da Xia will lead the search." We have always been based on integrity, both in business and as a person.”
"You are such a person based on integrity, Lord Xia Duo. I didn't expect that you and our president have such consistent ideas. If the president knows, she will definitely be very happy."
As he spoke, Timothy seemed to suddenly change into a different person. He became fanatical and looked in the direction of Severton, his eyes full of fascination, admiration and admiration.
However, this demeanor only appeared for a moment before he regained his original gloomy temperament and said confidently: "No matter who is behind this matter, after all, it is a low-level character hiding in a dark corner and conspiracy, Xia Duo Lord, please rest assured that this matter will be resolved soon.”
Xia Duo was dubious, and just as he was about to speak, the [Delayed Teleportation] hanging on his body immediately detected the transmission signals around him. At this moment, Xia Duo was a little worried about the person behind this matter, but suddenly he detected the transmission nearby, and he almost Without giving it a second thought, I immediately chose to delay.
fo
At the same time, he quickly informed Archmage Timothy about the situation he discovered. Unexpectedly, Archmage just smiled and did not make any preparations. Instead, he gave him a comforting look.
Xia Duo had no choice but to lean towards the edge of the ship, and then blessed himself with a protective spell. Different from the [Long-lasting Armor] after getting up in the morning, the protective spell at this time was not known for its duration, but for its duration. Strong protection.
Energy absorption, energy resistance, spell deflection, and more.
However, the delay in teleportation can never satisfy people. Sha Duo only had time to add two protective spells to himself, and a black figure appeared on the deck, only a few steps away from Timothy.
It was this figure that made Sha Duo pause and continue to cast spells. The black robe on the person was very similar to the one on Timothy. Combined with Timothy's previous performance, if nothing unexpected happened, this person should also be Ming Shui. Chamber of Commerce.
"Timothy, what happened? You called me over in such a hurry. Don't you know I'm busy!" The person seemed to be a busy man. He started to complain crazily as soon as he came over. However, seeing Xia Duo, he still let him Slightly more restrained:
"Who is this--"
"This is Lord Xia Duo from the southern Daxia pioneering territory. I happened to meet him and asked him for help." Timothy explained.
"Southern Realm? Xia Duo? Is he the one who created [Arcane Puzzle]?"
"right!"
Timothy didn't explain too much. He knew that his old friend was not interested in [Arcane Puzzle]. On the contrary, the aquatic plants growing on the fishmen might be more attractive to him.
Of course, he did not forget to introduce this old friend to Xia Duo, "Lord Xia Duo is also the mage consultant of our Mingshui Chamber of Commerce and senior arcanist Said. He prefers to study strange and weird things. The water plants here are... Will definitely like it.”
After finishing speaking, Timothy seemed to suddenly remember something, and said: "An investigation team will come over later, so there is no need to trouble Lord Shado for the rest. Of course, if Lord Shado is not busy, that's fine too. Stay here and see the end result.”
Maybe it was a test before, but Xia Duo quickly realized that if he left now, there would be no problem, but Xia Duo still wanted to see what was going on.
