Free Web NovelChapter 861: Chapter 518: Home Infiltration Plan, Fishman Scout
This plan was also a sudden idea.
He got this bold idea while floating in the air.
At that time, he saw that almost all the fishmen had run out.
The fishman tribe around the lake shore must have become an empty nest.
At most, only some fishman juveniles and a small number of patrol fishmen were left in the tribe.
For this, while floating, Zong Shen used the strategy module to check the number of fishmen below.
The answer he got indirectly proved his guess.
Despite the fishmen launching a massive attack and rushing towards the mountain top.
In fact, now is the best opportunity to raid the Fishman Tribe.
"Eagle, set off, target the north shore of the lake!"
Zong Shen extended his right arm, giving instructions to Eagle.
"Screech!"
Eagle raised its neck and let out a loud screech.
This screech made the fishmen very wary.
In a sense, such a large fierce bird magical beast like Eagle is considered their natural enemy.
Eagle flapped its wings, casting a large shadow in the sky, swiftly flying over the mountain foot towards the lake.
Zong Shen did not intend to conceal this action at all.
As a Dragon Vein Griffin, Eagle had an extremely high speed advantage.
Even if the fishmen sensed something was wrong, it would take at least ten minutes for them to return to the lakeside.
No way around it, speed is just that willful!
This distance took Eagle less than two minutes to reach the airspace above the Rapids Tribe.
It also crossed the thick mist zone above the lake.
It hovered over the northern shore of the lake.
This is the main part of the Rapids Tribe.
Apart from the wooden huts scattered around.
There were some peculiar structures resembling large water tanks.
Of course, the most conspicuous was the tall flat-topped pyramid-shaped altar.
This altar was about forty to fifty meters high.
Divided into more than twenty levels, all made of polished square stones.
There are staircases leading directly to the top in all four directions.
At the top of this altar is a rectangular pond about 2 meters in length and width.
The water inside emitted a faint green glow even at night.
To be safe, Zong Shen had Eagle land on the northern edge of the Rapids Tribe.
"Please mark sites within the Rapids Tribe that are valuable for looting."
Taking advantage of Eagle’s landing, Zong Shen began to query the strategy module.
His vision began to show around fifteen or sixteen light circle marks.
These light circle marks varied in size and were located at different distances.
Most were concentrated in the northern part of the Rapids Tribe, with about half of the golden circles distributed on the east and west shores.
The largest light circle mark was actually on top of this altar.
This indicated that this altar had unique value.
It could be useful to Zong Shen.
Eagle landed outside the village.
Zong Shen raised his hand, pointing to the sky, then to himself.
"Eagle, just keep flying."
"Wait for my summon."
"Be ready to land and respond at any time."
After hearing his clear instructions, Eagle nodded in a humanlike manner.
Its limbs were quite distinctive, with the front limbs being the strongest, like the claws of a Giant Dragon.
The hind limbs resembled the paws of a lion.
When necessary, its limbs served as landing gear.
Apart from assisting in landing, they could also be used to quickly pick up people.
Both front and hind limbs were much larger than the average human.
One could easily hang onto its toes and fly through the sky.
Eagle didn’t delay much, flapping its wings to fly up, hovering at an altitude of five to six hundred meters.
The bright moonlight overhead was intermittently dimmed under the shadow of its massive wingspan and figure.
Clear light and shadow changes occurred on the ground.
There was no firelight in the fishman tribe; these creatures had average vision and didn’t need much nighttime illumination, as their eyes were just one of their sensory organs, and they had other senses that could be utilized at close range.
Zong Shen led the way forward, with four Rodok soldiers entering Axe and Shield Mode, pairing up to guard the sides of the team.
The mages and rangers followed behind Zong Shen, positioned at the core of the team.
The entire fishman tribe was very quiet at this time.
Zong Shen had a clear goal, intending to loot as many valuable targets marked by golden circles on the northern shore within a dozen minutes, just when that group of fishmen might return.
Such an opportunity was truly rare.
No need to fight the fishmen to the death, yet he could still obtain treasures.
The scale of the northern shore was large, bigger than the combined size of the east and west shores.
There were seven golden circle marks here in total, some of which were likely treasure chests.
The rest might be the native treasures of the Rapids Tribe.
Zong Shen cautiously led the team into the tribe.
Maneuvering through the simple domed wooden huts.
Footing was on slippery and muddy ground.
It felt sticky underfoot, like being coated in a thick layer of mucus.
"Squish..."
Each step forward made a clear "squish" sound.
Sometimes the ground was so sticky that it would string along as he stepped down.
This kind of ground was really nauseating.
Fortunately, it wasn’t slippery here, so once adapted to this unique footing, it was possible to progress pleasantly.
Following the golden circle marks, Zong Shen arrived at the nearest marked location.
According to the mark’s precise guidance, this mark was inside an ordinary domed wooden hut.
The wooden huts here were built on wooden pile foundations and had simple stairs.
