Apocalypse: Transmigrated General's Daughter Uses Space to Survive-Chapter 185: Mutated Fish
Chapter 185: Chapter 185: Mutated Fish
The two motor boats shuttled through the rain heading to a remote street about five kilometers away with small shops.
The streets used to have buildings where people from middle-class level opened small businesses such as grocery stores, convenience stores, and pharmacies.
Even though there were boutiques and other shops selling daily necessities, most of them served nearby neighbors. For this reason, these shops, though small, had a range of goods with wide varieties.
They chose this place because it was a little remote and many people who had been looking for supplies before chose to go to big convenience stores and malls.
Because of the limited amount of supplies in such shops with limited space, many assumed that they wouldn’t get what they needed there.
However, Chu Miao and her group were looking for food and water, making such shops a small gold mine.
As the boats moved forward, Chu Miao saw some movement at a distance. Even though they weren’t heading that way, she still stretched her spiritual power like tentacles and approached the place she saw the movement.
Probing lightly, she was astonished to discover that there was a fish inside the water. She wouldn’t have been shocked if it was just a regular fish, after all, with all the flooding, it was normal that some fish pond might have been destroyed and all the fishes escaped to this place.
The issue was that the fish was about six feet long, almost the height of a fully grown man. What was more, the scales seemed to shimmer even in the water as if coated by something valuable or poisonous.
She wasn’t sure which one. She continued to observe and as the boat moved further away the fish suddenly jumped out of the water and caught a bat flying above it.
It jumped about two meters above the water surface and the moment it opened its mouth to capture the bat, Chu Miao saw the sharp rows of teeth that looked like they had been sharpened with cold metal.
Even though Chu Miao had seen big fish before, such as sharks, she could tell that this fish was different. Moreover, from the energy fluctuation, it had clearly mutated.
It might have been an ordinary fish weighing ten pounds before, but because of the mutation, it was now a deadly creature.
"Keep your senses about you. There are fish in the water and it looks like something is wrong with them. They look like they could swallow a human whole. So, stay alert." Chu Miao warned everyone so that they could stay vigilant.
Truth be told, everyone had thought that since the water was so high, zombies couldn’t get to them, so they had been relaxed. But it looks like there were dangers everywhere.
Hearing her warning, everyone raised their vigilance to the maximum and Ye Xuan also started scanning their surroundings with his spiritual power. He was still learning how to control it and even though he had already advanced to the third level of Qi refinement, he still wasn’t as proficient as Chu Miao and her brother. frёeωebɳovel.com
As they entered an alley leading to the street they were looking for, a fluctuation around the boats caused Chu Miao to raise her alertness even further.
Scanning around her, she found that they had been surrounded by about a dozen fish that were somewhat bigger than the one she had seen on the way there.
Seeing such huge fish, she wondered when they had started to mutate. She didn’t know if some of them had been zombified, but they had to kill them all.
"We are surrounded by those six-foot fish and from the looks of it, we can only fight to get out of their encirclement.
Does everyone have a suitable weapon?" Chu Miao announced the presence of the fish and asked about the weapons because she didn’t want accidents.
"We do." The new members replied in unison.
Of course she knew that Ye Xuan and her brother had suitable weapons so she wasn’t asking them.
"Alright, fight like you are fighting your last battle. These fish are definitely not ordinary. They should be quite strong. Probably all level two mutated fish and maybe even a level three.
So, be careful when you fight and don’t get hurt." Chu Miao instructed then sat down in the boat and relaxed. Truth be told, she wasn’t planning on joining the battle unless absolutely necessary.
After experiencing the battle with two level three zombies, she had stabilized his cultivation completely. However, her elder brother and boyfriend could use some tempering.
Also, the new members needed opportunities to advance and a battle was the best way to move forward.
Thus, she didn’t move and just watched as her brother and Ye Xuan took the lead to launch an attack on the fish closest to their boat respectively.
Since the fish were hidden in the water at first, Ye Xuan didn’t use a weapon, instead he created lightning bolts and aimed them at the fish. With water as a super conductor of electricity, every fish within a radius of fifty meters was electrocuted.
To their surprise, those fish didn’t die but instead they seemed to have been triggered and started to actively attack them.
The few of them were caught off guard by some water columns that shot straight at them with the momentum of a hammer.
Even though it was only a water column attack, if it landed on any part of the body, it would definitely hurt to the bone.
This was an attack of a level two mutated animal, so of course it was still lethal. Especially, for the three new members with low level superpowers or no powers at all.
To prevent the attacks from hitting the boats and damaging them, Chu Miao, who was sitting down idly and watching others fight, covered them with a thin layer of spiritual energy, ensuring that no accident would befall their transport.
Ye Xuan and Chu Hao obviously realized what she had done so they fought without holding back.
