Chapter 647 Transparent Fish Information
"These transparent fish are retarded!"

Three hours later, Qu Shilin said to Wang Tao.

"..."

After a brief exchange with Qu Shilin, Wang Tao realized that "mentally retarded" was not an adjective but a fact.

After Qu Shilin was promoted to the sixth level, her [Spiritual Insight] ability became much stronger, and she developed a new ability these two days - she can use her mental power to explore the brains of creatures and get some vague information! It is a bit similar to the legendary mind reading, but not as perverted as mind reading... She named this ability [Memory Search]

She could only search the memories of creatures with weak mental strength, low IQ, or those that had died not long ago, and the memories she obtained were intermittent and very vague.

In the past two days, Qu Shilin has used [Memory Search] on those catastrophic large fish and sea beasts. She feels that these large fish and sea beasts have very violent personalities and like to act alone.

As for why they acted together that day, it was because they found food - there seems to be an instinct in their genes, that is, when they find food, they will call their peers around and go hunting in groups. During the hunting process, they will maintain harmony and will not actively attack their companions.

Before killing the prey, they are partners, but after killing the prey, it all depends on their own abilities.

Jiang Shixue suddenly controlled the big fish and sea beasts to attack their companions, which broke the balance between them. They were not smart to begin with, and had no idea what was going on. They only knew that they were being attacked, so they had to fight back! Then a huge civil war ensued...

As for these transparent fish, they had died not long ago, and Qu Shilin also discovered something from their brains, such as the fact that they were mentally retarded.

If those huge catastrophic sea beasts before were not very smart, then these transparent fish really have no intelligence and a short memory...they act entirely based on physical instincts!

Their instinct is to eat and reproduce, and the prerequisite for reproduction is that they are full and satisfied... So to sum up, there is only one word in their minds - eat!

As long as they find food, they will rush over. They don't care whether they will die or not, or rather, they don't have the concept of death in their minds. They only know "find food, eat it."

This is actually a bit like zombies. Most zombies are brainless and only know how to eat.

However, when there is insufficient food or the environment is bad, zombies will hide somewhere and act like they are dead. When food comes to them, they will slowly wake up and prepare to eat. Of course, this is for zombies without a lord, except for zombies commanded by a lord.

These transparent fish would not stop like zombies, they would keep swimming and actively looking for food. And there were no lord-level beings among their kind, at least in the memories of the transparent fish that Qu Shilin had searched, there were no lord-level or higher beings.

Their activities are almost all based on instinct - they join forces with their own kind when they meet them, and eat food when they see it. When they have more energy in their bodies, they start to reproduce...

"No wonder..." Wang Tao nodded first, then asked, "By the way, do you know how they find their prey?"

When Wang Tao was flying in the sky before, those big fish and sea beasts had discovered him. And those transparent fish were attracted by the mutant pigs thrown into the water. Obviously, the perception abilities of these two creatures are different.

If we can figure out what senses they use to identify prey, it may be easier to target them later.

“I just happen to know that!”

There was a hint of pride on Qu Shilin's face.

"Let's talk about those big fish and sea beasts first. They hunt by sight! But their eyesight is not strong. What they have strong is dynamic vision. In their eyes, the surface of the water may be blurry, but if there is something moving quickly on the water, they can see it at a glance! Although the moving thing may not be food, you can tell whether it is food by taking a bite, so you were ambushed at that time... Later, you used pigs to fish because the pigs were shaking a little, which attracted their attention..."

"Superb dynamic vision..."

Wang Tao suddenly realized.

If this is the case, then there will be a way to restrain similar sea beasts in the future. No matter whether it has static vision or dynamic vision, just make it blind and it will not be able to see!
There are many ways and abilities to affect vision, such as attacking the eyes first to blind it. For example, making something that can be attached to its eyes. Another example is some abilities and awakenings that can affect vision, making it temporarily blind, such as the curse effect of Wang Tao's dark attribute attack, one of which is called [Blindness]...

"But those transparent fish are different. Their eyes are like those of blind people, basically just for decoration. They hunt mainly by smell! Especially in water, they can smell smells that many creatures can't smell. But if exposed to the air, their sense of smell will be greatly reduced. This is why they didn't show up when you hung the pig in the air. But as soon as the pig fell into the water, it attracted them... As long as the transparent fish smell the scent of other creatures, they will instinctively swarm over them, without considering the target's strength or whether they can beat them."

"Another point is that these transparent fish have a spiritual way of communicating with their own kind. The distance of this communication is not far, but because there are so many of them, one person can pass on the message to ten people, and ten people can pass on the message to a hundred people, so it is still very efficient."

"After they find prey, they will use this method of communication to call their companions. This behavior is somewhat similar to those of large fish and sea beasts, but unlike large fish and sea beasts, they do not like to be alone, but prefer to live in groups. They will not fight among themselves, but will only work together to hunt..."

"You were on the shore, but you were attacked by these transparent fish. It was because the transparent fish jumped out of the water after being attracted by the pigs, and then they smelled you, and then they started to call their companions over..."

"And when you used the 'Explosive Flame' which had great power and range, and directly killed all the transparent fish on land, in the water, and in the air, their limited-range communication method was disconnected. The transparent fish lost their target and stopped coming out..."

Qu Shilin said a lot in one breath.

Wang Tao personally poured her a glass of water, then laughed and said:

"So it's the smell! That's easy to deal with..."

Wang Tao was afraid that these sea beasts relied on mental power or similar abilities to judge their prey. Mental power detection was like having a God's perspective. If they all had a God's perspective, then humans would have nowhere to hide.

Fortunately, one of them has vision and the other has smell.

Although these abilities are powerful, they all have certain limitations.

Compared to vision, Wang Tao felt that interfering with smell was easier. He didn't need to make them unable to smell anything, he just needed to make the smells they smelled messy, such as using some stink bombs, which should affect their judgment!

"Oh, by the way, there is something else I haven't told you about their physical condition. The bodies of these transparent fish are not simply transparent, they also have a certain optical stealth effect! If we can study the principle of their invisibility, maybe we can also make optical stealth materials!"

"But their bodies are not always transparent. Under the moonlight, if they gather together, they will appear light black, like a dark shadow. That's how the person who reported to you before discovered them... If you want to hunt transparent fish, it's best to do it on a moonlit night..."

Qu Shilin didn't know that Wang Tao could see the health bar, but she knew that Wang Tao had night vision, so she suggested taking action at night.

Wang Tao nodded to show that he understood, and Qu Shilin continued:
"Not only do transparent fish have high defense, but spiritual energy can also pass through their bodies, so your spiritual attacks have little effect... They have water attributes, which counteract your fire attribute, so if there are too many of them, it will be difficult for you to deal with them. Of course, I mean when you don't use the Explosion..."

At this moment, Wang Tao seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked.

"Wait! You said before that after I killed a large number of transparent fish, they lost their target and stopped coming out... In other words, there are still transparent fish in the water?"

Qu Shilin looked at Wang Tao strangely:
"Of course, I'm not saying that they like to travel in groups, there are a lot of them! From the memory fragments I saw, there are still a lot of transparent fish in the water, and transparent fish from other places are coming here. You should have killed only a small part of them..." "..."

Wang Tao was somewhat relieved. Fortunately, he retreated directly after using the explosive flame and did not covet the transparent fish corpses and crystal cores on the water surface.

When Wang Tao thought of the countless pairs of eyes staring at him underwater, he felt a chill on his back.

If he had gone down to pick up the crystal core, he would have made the same mistake again. Wang Tao had lost all his awakening power at that time. If he was suddenly besieged by transparent fish again, he would most likely use his last life-saving trump card...

"If you encounter transparent fish next time, be careful! There are too many of them, and because they have no brains and physical instincts, they will fight to the death with their targets! Unless you can kill a large number of transparent fish in an instant, causing the transmission of information between them to be interrupted, but this is too difficult! And this is the situation on land. If they are in the water, even if the communication between them is interrupted, they will still smell the smell and come over..."

"Well, I'll be careful."

Wang Tao nodded seriously.

Qu Shilin then said:
"I'll see if I can make something that can confuse the smell. It shouldn't be difficult, but I don't have any living transparent fish to use as test subjects, so the speed of making it won't be too fast. You'll have to wait a while..."

Wang Tao nodded in agreement.

It would be even better if some portable weapons that could confuse the smell could be made. As for the lack of living transparent fish as experimental subjects, Wang Tao didn't think it was a problem.

"After my awakening energy is restored, I will go again and catch some living transparent fish for you to study!"

Now that he knew the specific information of these transparent fish, Wang Tao would definitely not be fooled by them again. Wang Tao even thought of many ways to catch transparent fish and couldn't wait.

"Thank you so much, you must be careful! If you can't catch it alive, it's fine. It will just take a little longer. There's no rush!"

Qu Shilin naturally wanted to have a living transparent fish for her experiment, but she was afraid that something might happen to Wang Tao.

"time……"

Wang Tao frowned.

Given the current high temperatures outside, if we don’t quickly find a way to solve the water problem, the Changhe Base will be in trouble in the future, after all, there are millions of people to feed.

We must quickly eliminate all the sea beasts in the cracks, or find a way to transport water back to the base without attracting sea beasts...

For a while, Wang Tao had no idea.

But what is certain is that he should run more near the cracks next time. Now that he knows more about these sea beasts and how they act, as long as he is prepared in advance, it should not be so dangerous for Wang Tao.

Of course, there may be other sea beasts in the crack, so Wang Tao can't take it lightly. He plans to wait until the awakening energy in his body is almost restored before going to the crack.

"By the way, can these transparent fish be eaten?"

Wang Tao suddenly asked.

Since the meat of large fish and sea beasts can be eaten and can even improve human physical fitness, what about these transparent fish?

If transparent fish can be eaten, then Wang Tao’s hunting of these transparent fish in the future will not be wasted.

But unfortunately, Qu Shilin shook his head.

"No. There is a substance in their meat that will make people sick if they eat it. And their flesh and blood don't have much energy. Even if you can eat it, it's almost the same as eating ordinary fish. It won't enhance your physical fitness like those big fish..."

"That's it..."

Wang Tao shook his head.

If it is not edible, its value is greatly reduced.

If these things didn't threaten the Changhe Base, Wang Tao would definitely not be willing to go to the trouble of hunting them.

Wang Tao stayed in the research institute for a long time and had a lot of communication with Qu Shilin.

When he returned, the golden eagle just woke up.

"Chirp—"

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Wang Tao, and the golden eagle came over happily to ask for a hug.

Looking at the bird's beak that was bigger than a villa, Wang Tao quickly stretched out his hands to block the golden eagle.

"What a powerful force! And it has grown a lot bigger!"

[Health Volume: 1000000/1000000]

[Blue amount: 1000000/1000000]

[Level: Level 6·Lord]

[Awakening: Giant]

At this time, the golden eagle is a sixth-level lord with the awakening of the [Giant]. This strength is stronger than the giant zombies of the same level. After all, giant zombies cannot fly. The current combat power of the golden eagle should be similar to that of the sixth-level disaster level.

Looking at such a powerful golden eagle, Wang Tao thought, maybe he could have another fishing trip?
