Wandering in the world of martial arts

Chapter 143 Silver Scale Fish
early morning.

As soon as Wu Chen woke up, he went to Xinjingyuan Hall.

The new Jingyuan Hall built on the edge of the territory occupies a small area and is relatively simple in construction. It didn't even bring in running water, but built a pool in the center and directly poured the lake water into it.

The small net source placed on the stone base has also become smaller again.

And in the corner of the Jingyuan Hall, the crocodile king was placed on a wooden shelf, under which a flame that had not been extinguished all night was being smoked and roasted.

This fire roasting method was also discovered by Wu Chen in the past two days.

The flame has a restraining effect on the black mist, so he tried roasting the crocodile king, and the effect was really good, which increased the consumption of the magic source, and because of the strong survivability of the magic source carrier, he did not directly give the crocodile king roasted to death.

But even so, the current crocodile king is already very sluggish.

The black mist around it can only cover a range of three feet.

It's just that these three feet are also the most difficult to weaken.

It's a pity that something like the magic source is not a solid existence, otherwise, it can be dissected to get it out.

"Master Wu, I discovered something last night." Old man Zhang yawned and reported to Wu Chen.

"What's the matter?" Wu Chen asked, thinking it was related to the Crocodile King.

"Late last night, I was a little thirsty, so I went to drink water by the lake, and then I found that there seemed to be a strange silver light flashing a few times at the corner of the lake. I don't know if the old man was wrong." Zhang The old man talked about another thing.

"Yinguang, where is it?" Wu Chen hurriedly asked.

"It's near there." Old man Zhang led Wu Chen out, pointing to an area of ​​the lake.

"Okay, I see, you go to rest." Wu Chen nodded.

Then he impatiently walked towards the lake, took off his clothes, and jumped in with a "plop".

He was a little nervous.

In normal times, if an old man said that he saw some silver light on the lake, he would definitely think that he was old and dizzy.

But the situation is different now.

In the past two days, the task of "protecting against the cold" was completed, and the task of "defense" was also completed after the earthen walls were built for the residential area.

So Wu Chen didn't want to miss any abnormal clues.

The lake water was very cool, Wu Chen swam in the clear lake water with his eyes open, many fish passed by him, he just glanced at it and ignored it.

I swam a lot around here, but unfortunately I didn't find anything useful.

Wu Chen thought for a while, and began to swim deeper again.

The lake is not particularly deep. At the end of the day, you can already see all kinds of algae at the bottom of the lake.

Suddenly, when Wu Chen swam to a place, he stopped.

There is a fissure at the bottom of the lake.

This crack was relatively narrow and Wu Chen's body could not enter. He squatted outside the crack and looked carefully.

However, after looking at it for a long time, he didn't find anything useful. It seemed that this place was just an ordinary crack.

At this time, Wu Chen's breath holding reached the limit, and he returned to the lake helplessly.

"By the way, Mr. Zhang always finds something abnormal in the middle of the night? Could it be that the time is wrong?"

Wu Chen thought to himself.

The day passed quickly.

When it was late at night,
Wu Chen jumped into the lake again and dived to the bottom of the lake.

Because it was late at night, the sight at the bottom of the lake was very dim, but also because of the darkness, when Wu Chen swam near the crack again, the few fine silver lights were particularly conspicuous!

Wu Chen was overjoyed. Since he couldn't see what the silver light was, he simply reached into the crevice to fish for it. After this, he really caught something.

This thing was a bit slippery and was still struggling in Wu Chen's palm.

Wu Chen took a look and couldn't see clearly, so he simply swam ashore and walked into the Xiaojingyuan Hall.

"Master Wu!" Old man Zhang was guarding the fire, and greeted him immediately when he came in.

Wu Chen nodded slightly, walked to the side of the fire, and looked at the things in his hand by the light of the fire.

It was a small fish as long and slender as a little finger, and its scales had a faint silver light.

"You found the silver scale fish!
Taking silver-scaled fish can purify your body, so please make good use of it!
Territory mission 'Treasures' has been completed.

The territory gained 3 prosperity points!
You have completed all required territory development tasks.

You can now commit to the system for the next stage of development.

Note that all tasks that are currently optional will disappear after you submit them.

Do you want to submit now? "

A series of sounds sounded from the system.

Wu Chen immediately answered "No".

"Master Wu, this little fish is so strange, could it be the source of the silver light that the old man discovered last night?" Old man Zhang said curiously beside him.

"This is a treasure, remember, anyone who sees this kind of fish in the future must not touch it without permission!" Wu Chen chuckled, and put the silver-scaled fish in his hand into the pool in the center of Jingyuan Hall.

Seeing the whitebait that returned to the water and began to swim unceasingly, Wu Chen's eyes were slightly surprised.

Purify the body.

Is the reason why the little crane can become a rare beast because it has eaten this kind of silver-scaled fish by mistake?
If this is the case, then this silver scale fish is too strong!
However, Wu Chen felt that this should vary from individual to individual. If any animal could immediately become a rare animal after taking this silver-scaled fish, that would be too exaggerated and impossible.

In addition, even for humans, this fish is also very useful.

Bring a silver scale fish with you, and eat one after staying in the black mist for a long time, won't it prevent yourself from mutating into a living dead?
In short, this treasure is very good.

Wu Chen checked the prosperity value again in his mind.

Then he discovered that there were three more points of light in his mind, two were next to the cracks at the bottom of the lake, and one was in a nearby pool.

The reason why there are two light spots near the crack is that besides live fish, there are also fish eggs.

Wu Chen can increase the chances of survival for the eggs of the silver scale fish, and can also improve the genes of the eggs.

As for the existing silver scale fish, their growth rate or reproduction rate can be increased.

It's just that the prosperity value consumed by this is a bit large?
Just to improve the survival rate of the existing fish eggs, Wu Chen tried it. With his current [-] points of prosperity, it is not enough!
This is a bit too exaggerated.

With eight points of prosperity, he can increase the growth of other industries by a circle. Who would have thought that the survival rate of this silver-scaled fish would not be enough to increase the survival rate of even one egg?

"Master Wu, look!" Old man Zhang's surprised voice suddenly came from beside him.

"What's wrong?" Wu Chen immediately looked at him.

"This fish seems to increase the scope of the net source light!" Old man Zhang pointed at the central pool, his fingers trembling.
