A two-foot-long blackback stickleback was chewed into bones in less than ten seconds, which immediately frightened everyone. They were all glad that they had not fallen into the lake before.
Seeing this scene, Murong Xiaoxiao suddenly became anxious. She hurriedly tried to dissuade him: "Brother Ye, you must not go down. You don't want to and you can't take risks."
"That's right, that's right, you can't take risks without these fish."
Yang Xiao immediately changed his mind, and then he looked at Yang Mo angrily: "I'm taking advantage of you."
"Why are you talking to me?"
Yang Mo scolded him, but maybe it was because he had something to gain, so he was in a good mood with a smile on his face.
"We can't give up. No matter what, we have to get a few to try them out."
Nangong Bingyu was a little anxious. She looked at Qi Ye and urged, "Hurry up and think of a solution."
Obviously, Nangong Bingyu had remembered Yang Mo's previous statement that the black-backed fish was more delicious, and she knew very well that Yang Mo was right - if Yang Mo was really allowed to pick up the fish, they would really have no chance to feast on it. .
"Brother Ye, it's important to save your life. Don't listen to Nangong Bingyu."
The second dream dissuaded her. As she spoke, she controlled the sword array to continue attacking the black shadow below, and she did not forget to glare at Nangong Bingyu.
"I've already thought of a way to pick up fish."
The first night said calmly. Seeing Nangong Bingyu's confused and urging look, he chuckled: "Have you not noticed that the number of ice arrows shot out has decreased a lot since the stickleback fish was killed?"
She was slightly startled, but soon Nangong Bingyu also discovered this. She nodded gently: "Yes, the blackback stickleback is fighting for its own companions and doesn't bother to attack us. This also reduces the danger. One way."
"Not just a way to reduce the risk, but a way to kill sticklebacks more easily."
The first night chuckled, and then patiently explained: "Because these fish will surface when they are fighting for their own companions, so your attack will be more effective."
"That's true."
Yasha also noticed this, and she smiled charmingly: "I thought you were too afraid to fall down to pick up the fish, but it turned out that you discovered this. Wow, you are really careful enough to observe it, and you discovered it so quickly and took advantage of it. ."
Long Yuan and Yang Xiao nodded repeatedly, and they were full of praise. Even Tong Wei couldn't help but praise the first night's cleverness in his heart.
After admiring, Yang Xiao urged: "Brother Ye, since you have found a way to pick up fish, and there are already a lot of killed sticklebacks around, you should pick up the fish quickly, and don't let all the sticklebacks be eaten.
Smiling slightly, he didn't say much on the first night. As soon as he thought about it, the spurs on his legs and feet had whizzed out and stabbed straight into the water. To be precise, straight into a killed blackback stickleback.
The mysterious light flashed, and the army spine easily penetrated a two-foot-long black-backed fish and picked it up. Then it returned to the first night's hands, and the fish naturally fell into his hands.
"Well, you actually thought of this method. Brother Ye, you are so smart."
Yang Xiao was filled with admiration, and then looked envious: "It's so convenient for a mind master to be able to control objects. He can do anything, especially he can control swords and fly with swords. It would be great if I were a mind master."
"I guess you will never have the chance to become a mind master in this life."
Yang Mo couldn't help but pour cold water on him, maybe because he was afraid of hurting Yang Xiao, he changed his tone: "But it will be very simple to control objects after your level improves. Of course, if you can break through to the air control stage like your uncle Lei, then Things are even simpler, just rush directly to the water and these black-backed sticklebacks can't do anything to you."
"Well, let's forget about breaking through to the Sky Control stage. It's probably twenty years later."
Yang Xiao couldn't help but said: "I'm old, how can I still be in the mood to fish and eat fish like this?"
"You and I have the same mentality as young people now. You are like an old man at a young age. It is really the biggest mistake to let your elder brother teach you."
Yang Mo said angrily.
"Then you have to teach me when you have time. You are too playful and left me to your uncle, but you still have the nerve to criticize me."
Yang Xiao whispered, thinking of something, he looked playful: "Someone just said that we won't be allowed to eat the fish we picked up, right? Now it's the fish we picked up, so is that okay..."
After saying this, Yang Xiao looked at Yang Mo provocatively, looking proud.
"Hey, okay, do you know how to cook?"
“Someone likes to show off when he’s cooking and tells us all the ways to cook fish so we can make it ourselves.”
"Hey, you are promising. Do you have any ingredients? I seem to have said that the most important thing for cooking fish is the ingredients."
"Uh, I was wrong..."
"It's too late to apologize. Anyway, we can catch fish by ourselves even without your fish, especially knowing that we can use blackback sticklebacks or pieces of meat to lure the sticklebacks to the surface."
…
"Well, senior, Yang Xiao and I are not the same group. You can enjoy the fish we picked up as you like."
Long Yuan was the first to betray, or rather abandon, Yang Xiao.
"And us."
Yasha immediately agreed, and the first night and others also spoke one after another. Later, even Geng Yiye spoke, and Yang Xiao became a loner for a while.
"It's inhumane, it's inhumane."
Yang Xiao lamented to the sky, which immediately caused everyone to burst into laughter.
While saying this, the movements of everyone's hands did not stop. Nangong Bingyu and Er Meng continued to control the sword formation to attack.
Because most blackback sticklebacks surface and compete for the corpses of their companions, killing fish in this way is much easier, and dozens or hundreds of them are soon killed.
It's just that most of these fish were competed for by their companions. On the first night, even the fish that could be picked up by the imperial army's spines and steel arrows were limited.
Later, when Geng Yiye saw that there were no fish that could pose a threat to Ermeng and others, he also joined the fish-picking ranks. He learned from Yiye how to control the long knife to pick up the fish, which was quite impressive, and soon Just picked up some fish.
Perhaps because they were reluctant to have so many fish competed for by the black-backed stickleback fish, Nangong Bingyu and Er Meng distractedly controlled an ancient sword and multiple flying swords to stick and pick up fish, and they also picked up a lot of fish.
Anyway, at this time, most of the black-backed sticklebacks are competing for food and are easily killed, so it doesn't matter even if the power of the sword array is weakened.
Although many fish were killed quickly, the smell of blood attracted more blackback fish, so the number of fish below did not decrease but increased.
"Well, shouldn't all the blackback sticklebacks in the entire lake be rushing over?"
Yang Xiao looked at the black shadows swarming in the distance, and he sighed with emotion: "These fish are too stupid. Just the smell of blood can attract them all. It is too easy to kill them like this."
"The blackback stickleback has an extremely keen sense of smell like a shark. It can smell a trace of blood even in extremely remote places. Not to mention that you have killed so many fish. It is not impossible to attract all the fish in the lake. ."
Yang Mo said casually: "And the smell of blood can make people fall into a state of madness. Only then will they rush over and eat their own companions regardless of danger.
"So there is really a chance to catch them all?"
Long Yuan frowned: "It would be bad if such delicious food disappeared."
"Don't worry, this fish has a very strong reproductive capacity, and it must have left eggs in many places. There is no need to worry about killing them."
Yang Mo said, and then his tone changed: "Of course you'd better stop after collecting enough fish. It's always good to leave some more."
"Will these fish kill each other and become extinct?"
Yasha thought about this question.
"Won't."
Yang Mo was very sure: "Although the blackback stickleback eats its companions, it only eats dead companions. As long as you don't kill them all, they will not become extinct. What's more, as I said before, even if you kill them all, there will still be fish eggs. I believe it." Soon there will be a lot of big fish here again.”
"Then shall we kill them all?"
Nangong Bingyu looked at the first night tentatively, her pretty face full of expectation: "It seems that I don't feel a particularly dangerous aura, which means that there should be no sixth-order black-backed fish here. With our strength, we can definitely Kill them all."
"Yeah."
Yasha hurriedly echoed: "Although most of these black-backed fish are of the third level, there are also a small number of fourth-level ones, and there are also fifth-level ones. The most important thing is that there are many, many, many of them. Kill them all. The crystal souls are enough to exchange for dozens or even hundreds of sixth-order crystal souls, especially since we can also sell fish, I believe many people are willing to buy them at high prices."
There are many black-backed sticklebacks, hundreds of thousands of them. Killing them all will indeed yield a large amount of crystal soul.
"Of course we have to kill them all. Anyway, we don't have to worry about killing them all."
Long Yuan agreed.
Previously, everyone thought that they would have the opportunity to taste the blackback spinefish in the future, so they were worried about killing them. However, since they don't have to worry about "fishing in the dry lake", then they naturally have nothing to worry about.
"I'm afraid it won't work..."
The first night shook his head, but he was immediately rebutted.
"Uncle Yang said he won't kill them all, so we don't have to worry about anything. The more, the merrier."
Nangong Bingyu was quite dissatisfied.
“It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I can’t.”
The first night he said, he looked far into the distance: "There are a lot of black-backed fish, and they tend to rush over continuously. Although you and Meng'er control the sword formation to mobilize the energy of the sky without worrying about exhaustion of Qi, but Controlling the sword formation will also consume mental energy, and you will soon be unable to hold on, and in order to stay safe you'd better hold back."
"This, this is indeed a problem."
After pondering for a moment, Nangong Bingyu finally nodded.
"Why don't we kill after we rest and recover to our peak? We're not in a hurry anyway."
Second Meng suggested, and her suggestion was immediately echoed by Nangong Bingyu and others.
"Well, that's not necessary. Just enough to eat is enough. You can't be too greedy, right?"
The first night persuaded with a wry smile: "What's more, if we want to kill all the blackback sticklebacks in this big lake, it will take at least a few days. The time wasted is too much."
"That's right, just enough to eat."
Yang Xiao immediately changed his mind: "And counting the crystal souls obtained by killing dragon-winged bats, we are not short of crystal souls, especially since we can also kill other alien beasts to obtain crystal souls."
After pondering for a moment, Nangong Bingyu nodded softly: "That's true. Improving our strength is the most important thing for us. We can't waste too much time here. Let's just kill for a while and then we will continue on our way."
Since Nangong Bingyu no longer insisted, no one said anything.
Perhaps because they saw that Geng Yi was a little slow in picking up fish on the first night, Nangong Bingyu and Second Meng stopped and started picking up fish with their swords, which increased the efficiency of picking up fish many times.
Because all the black-backed fish have surfaced, Geng Yi's sword is enough to kill fish, and even Yaksha and Long Yuan can kill fish, so there is no need to worry about not having enough fish to pick up.
Yaksha and Long Yuan can use the divine thunder from the sky. The powerful lightning falls into the water and instantly paralyzes or kills a large number of fish around them. The efficiency is even higher than Second Meng's sword array, and this is why Second Meng and others give up killing. The fish then turned into an important reason for picking up fish.
"Brother Ye, haven't you always wanted to verify the power of the Hundred Strikes? This is a good opportunity."
Murong Xiaoxiao suddenly reminded.
My eyes lit up on the first night. There were densely packed blackback sticklebacks below. It was indeed a very good target, and it was really good to practice the Hundred Strikes of a Prairie Fire.
Some people died, but not completely...
