Reincarnated in a different world, the main job is the villager, the side job is the devil king

Chapter 204: The fish-men tribe woo woo woo, ah woo, come on!
[Name: Fishman Tribe (grey box)]

[Race: Ordinary monster]

[Introduction: The fishmen are a race that mutated after being contaminated by magic. They can survive out of water for a short period of time. They are small in size and scary in appearance.Murlocs generally live along the coast and can also survive in river areas inside the land.Murlocs' attack power is relatively low, but they are numerous and often move in groups. 】

[Because the tribe is built on the coast, if they encounter danger, the fishmen will choose to jump into the sea to avoid danger, so they have relatively strong concealment. 】

[If you see a murloc on the coast, it often means there is a murloc tribe behind you.Don't provoke the murlocs, they will bring the entire tribe to take revenge. 】

Taking advantage of the last two days before the start of school, Xia Mi prepared to resurrect the fish-men race.

Gray boxes represent races that have been exterminated.

"Why can the fish-men tribe be exterminated? What did Luwaka do?"

Xia Mi couldn't help frowning.

Judging from the intelligence, even if the brave men come to attack, the fish-men who can enter the sea to avoid danger will not be exterminated.

[The glorious record of the genocide of the fishmen]

"There is such a thing. Is it similar to a record of monumental achievements?"

[The fish-men tribe has not been exterminated during the reign of 70 demon kings in the past. They are one of the few monsters in history whose reproduction has never been cut off.During the reign of the 71st Demon King Luwaka, he was hunted to death by the adventure group. 】

"Ah, 70 years of history ended in Luwaka's hands. Just listening to it makes me feel a little sad."

[When Luwaka fought against the brave, the fish-men from the ocean took on the heavy responsibility and became an important role in the fight against the brave.At the end of the war, Luwaka gathered all the fish-men and divided them into three armies, each numbering hundreds of thousands. 】

Murlocs are the most common monsters among aquatic races, and their status is similar to slimes and goblins among land races.

"It seems like there were a lot of fish-men before, so how did they perish?"

Xia Mi looked at it carefully.

[Among the three armies, Luwaka dispatched the first fishman army as the counterattack vanguard to invade King Durikamai, the King of Fes who is closest to the Demon King's City. 】

[More than [-] murlocs sneaked into the underground drainage pipes of Rikamai City, swarmed into Rikamai City, destroyed all the toilets in every household in Rikamai City, and at the same time, destroyed the sewer system of the entire city.As long as the battle is successful, the city of Rikamai will fall into an unprecedented crisis of nowhere to place its feces, the air will be filled with stench, and the Kingdom of Fes will also become a kingdom of stench. 】

[The night of heavy rain is the best opportunity for invasion.One hundred thousand murlocs carried hammers to destroy toilets and lurked into the drainage pipes of Rikamai City. 】

[No one noticed the abnormalities in the drainage pipes, and the invasion went smoothly until the murloc army arrived underground in the industrial area.Countless private outfalls that do not appear on the official city sewer plan discharge turbulent black sewage.The water quality in the pipeline dropped rapidly to the point where the fishmen could not bear it. All the fishmen were unable to escape and died in the sewers of the Kingdom of Fes. 】

[A series of strange phenomena occurred in the city of Ruikamai. Corroded and mutilated fish bones suddenly appeared in the toilet; the sound of fish tumbling and splashing seemed to be heard in the sewers of every house; strange dead fish corpses floated on the moat. Lasts for a full month. 】

"It turned out to be the factory's private sewage discharge that saved the royal capital!"

Xia Mi felt heartbroken over the fishman's death.

"However, Luwaka still has some responsibilities as a demon king."

[Based on the lessons learned from the past, Luwaka dispatched the second murloc army as a deep-sea expedition team to the depths of the continuous sea outside the continent of Elland to find the legendary mermaid tribe with alluring beauty.Luwaka plans to propose marriage to the mermaid princess of the mermaid tribe and form an alliance with the mermaid tribe through marriage.

The second murloc army set off with Luwaka's edited photos and engagement invitations. 】

"What kind of lesson is this! Luwaka definitely just wants to have a taste of being a mermaid! She has already set off with her engagement items!"

Xia Mi gradually learned that the mermaid tribe and the fish-men tribe were not the same species. The former was an independent natural race, while the latter was an ordinary monster belonging to the demon tribe.

The difference between the two is also very obvious. The mermaid tribe is a race whose upper body is human and lower body is fish. The women among them generally have excellent appearance and are called mermaids.

Of course, the fish-men are not such weird beings that the upper body is a fish and the lower body is a human. The fish-men are more like a fish that has mutated. On the basis of the fish's body, it has undergone alienation and grown limbs, while maintaining Characteristic of most fish, it has a spike-like dorsal fin on its back and more obvious gills.

[Later, I picked up a drifting bottle from the shore that should have been passed down by a certain murloc. It turns out that in the first month of going to sea, the murloc army wandered on the sea and encountered big storms and predatory sharks one after another. One of the murlocs died an untimely death.In the second month after going to sea, the murloc army encountered the mermaid tribe. Because of their ugly appearance, they were considered heretics by the mermaid tribe, and all the remaining murlocs were wiped out.The second murloc army was completely wiped out. 】

"It's miserable."

Xia Mi sighed.

"What about the last fish-man army?"

[It was already the end of the war when all the fishmen were summoned for the third time.With two lessons learned from the past, Luwaka decided to stay away from the ocean and human cities this time, and sent the third murloc army to the desert deep in the continent. 】

"? Wait what are you doing in the desert!"

[Mirages often appear in the depths of that desert. Sometimes in the mirage is a high mountain called Penglai that floats with fairy spirit. Creatures who are lucky enough to see this high mountain can enter the mirage and reach Penglai.I heard that deep in this high mountain called Penglai, there is a kind of elixir with the effect of immortality.Even the Demon King can be resurrected once after being killed by a hero after eating it. 】

"You are already preparing for defeat! You actually sent fishmen to the desert. Isn't there no one available?"

[More than a hundred thousand murlocs set off in a mighty manner. Under the high temperature and scorching sun, the murlocs soon lost their mobility due to lack of water. Along the way, murlocs kept turning into grilled fish. The murlocs carrying themselves on their backs had turned into The comrades who grilled the fish moved on.In the second week after entering the desert, two-thirds of the murloc army was reduced to encounter the vultures in the desert. The remaining murlocs had little ability to resist. After a struggle, they all became food for the desert vultures. 】

[The desert vulture designated the day when it encountered the murloc army as a day of thanksgiving.God must have felt their usual hunger, so he specially sent fish with grilled fish to their doorsteps to satisfy their needs. 】

"..."

Xia Mi clicked on [The glorious record of the genocide of the fish people].

"Forget it, forget about the previous things, let's concentrate on studying how to resurrect the fish-men."

Xia Mi looked at the conditions needed to resurrect the fishman.

[Resurrection conditions: Fish contaminated by magic; the power of the devil]

It seems quite easy, after all, it is an ordinary monster, but what is this fish contaminated by magic?

As soon as he saw magic, Xia Mi knew who to look for.

He contacted the magical girl.

"Magic pollution?"

In Fatali, Saili, who was sitting on the window sill of her room reading a magic book, closed the book and looked out the window. From the angle of her window, she could just see the hotel where Xia Mi was staying.

The two now use the ring to communicate.

"Generally speaking, magicians using magic will not cause pollution to nature."

The magical girl thought for a while and added.

"However, making magic crystals will cause pollution. There are two types of magic crystals, original and artificial. Original magic crystals refer to crystals bred by nature that have magic power themselves, while artificial magic crystals require artificial magic to be poured into them. . In the market, artificial magic crystals are relatively common because there are specialized factories that make products in this area."

The magical girl took advantage of the opportunity to educate Xia Mi about science.

"There are many types of artificial magic crystals, such as video crystals for recording videos, broadcast crystals for broadcasting calls, storage crystals for storing things, etc. These all need to be made with corresponding magic power. Among them , there is a special kind of crystal - an artificial magic crystal used for fighting. The most common one is the bomb crystal that can cause explosions. It is small in size but powerful, and is an important substitute for gunpowder."

"During the manufacturing process, because a large amount of magic power needs to be injected into the crystal, and the crystal is polished in the later stage, a lot of crystal residue with residual magic power will be produced. When these crystal residues with residual magic power come into contact with the water source, Soil and trees will produce so-called magic pollution, that is, the concentration of magic power exceeds the standard, causing changes in the surrounding environment."

"So, after magic crystals are no longer used, they are usually recycled and given to specialized magicians for processing. Magical girls can get extra credits if they go to the countryside to pick up magic crystals to eliminate magic power during their spare time."

"I understand, it's similar to a battery."

Xia Mi clapped his hands. "Ah, almost."

The magical girl nodded.

"Are there any places around here that have been contaminated by magic?"

"Yes. There are many magic crystal processing factories in the west of San Carno City. Although they are all compliant on the surface, there are still many shameful operations in order to save money. There is a concave lake farther to the west, which is said to be used by the factory. Come to the place where crystal residue is secretly dumped.”

"I understand."

Xia Mi decided where he was going.

"Are you free now? Let's go there together."

"Hmph, Xia Mi, do you think that magical girls are always free and waiting for your invitation?"

The magical girl who was by the window quickly came down and came to the full-length mirror next to the dressing table. She stood on tiptoes and spun around, looking at herself back and forth.

"Are you looking for me or am I looking for you?"

-

"Aren't it just you and me?"

The magical girl who came to the designated place for an appointment raised her eyebrows and looked at the golden-haired girl next to Xia Mi.

Why is this troublesome elf here too!
"Oh, I think I might need Lulea later."

"So what are you going to do?"

The elf girl murmured and looked at the magical girl.

"Good morning~ Saili~"

[The elf is friendly. 】

The magical girl could only smile slightly and suppress the complaints in her heart.

"morning."

The three of them set off for the western outskirts of San Carno City.

These days, several people have been staying in the southeast of San Carno City, and have basically never been to the west. Now they find that it is a different scene.

While it is as prosperous as the southeast, there are many factory-like buildings here, and the overall environment is a bit like an era where magic and industry were combined.

After walking out of the city and following the path, the three of them quickly arrived at their destination.

This is a small concave lake, but the landmark sign in front of the lake shows that it is more than 3 meters deep.

A lake with a depth of more than 6 meters is considered a deep-water lake. The depth of the lake in front of you is probably deeper than the depth of some seas. If you look at the cross-section of the terrain, this lake should appear as if it appears on a plain at an altitude of more than 2000 meters. A dented hollow nail.

It is really suitable for storing industrial waste residue.

The three people walked forward and saw the surface of this lake. Compared with the lakes in the southeast, the surface of this lake was not clean. The bottom could not be seen. The color gradually changed from transparent to green, and then ink.

"What a deep lake."

Lureya muttered.

"This is what I'm telling you."

The magical girl stood by the lake and said.

"Lureia, jump in and help me catch a fish."

Xia Mi nodded in understanding and motioned for the blond girl next to him to take action.

"Okay! - Are you kidding me? This lake is full of dirty things at first glance. How could an elf girl jump in?"

"Don't you have self-purification? Maybe you can purify the lake water around you?"

"Absolutely impossible. Self-purification also requires spiritual power. Moreover, it seems that the lake is contaminated by magic. There may be any monsters in it."

The elf girl guessed a lot of things with the help of her elf intuition.

"Xia Mi, don't you want to eat the fish inside? It might mutate into a strange creature."

"of course not."

Seeing that neither of them had the intention to take action, Xia Mi could only pick up the fishing net and prepare to catch a few fish from the lake.

With the help of [Villager·Fishing Skill·Maximum Level], he successfully caught a palm-sized fish in a short time.

The little fish is all red, almost like a normal fish, like a red koi, struggling in a fishing net.

Xia Mi thought for a while and decided to take action.

No matter how you say he is a devil, if he touches a fish and is radiated by the magic pollution on it, then it doesn't make sense.

[Race: fish]

[Status: Contaminated by magic]

Very good, meets the requirements to become a fishman.

Catching the small red fish in his hand, Xia Mi poured his magic power into it.

The next moment, the little red fish in his hand emitted colorful light all over, as if it had swallowed a neon light, and opened its mouth.

"Ah woo woo, ah woo..."

"The fish are screaming!"

"Don't panic, it's the fish-man I just resurrected."

Xia Mi explained.

At the same time, through the devil's detection, information about the small fish in his hand was transmitted.
