Chapter 256: Chapter 256: Fighting Underwater

Chu Hao had some swords, spears, and even bows and arrows in his space ring that Chu Miao had given him before. In fact, everyone in the Chu family had lots of them.

Because the soul ring was the space ring Chu Miao had used since she was nine years old in her previous life, it had a lot of things she had collected as spoils of war or when she went out for training.

Therefore, things like weapons were numerous in number. Once everyone had a weapon they felt comfortable with, she told them their mission.

"A short distance from here are dozens of fish. Brother Leo, Chichi, and brother Zhao should understand what I am talking about. Maybe some of you have seen similar fish as well.

What I want you to do is to go into the water and kill those fish. You have to understand that they are mixed. Some are just mutated fish that are edible and can provide us with food, but others already have the zombie virus. If you get bitten or scratched you might turn into a zombie.

So, you have to be careful when you get into the water. The fish can be aggressive and fending them off won’t be easy." Chu Miao explained the mission to the teammates in the boat.

"Sister Miao, are the fish you are talking about the same size as the ones from before?" Chichi asked with a chill running down her spine.

She still remembered how those fish were good at attacking when they fought the other day. She had thought that she wouldn’t have to face them ever again. But then she remembered the taste of the fish head soup and she realized that she would have to fight if she wanted the spoils of war.

She felt that it might be her illusion but she thought that her superpower was a little more powerful after drinking that soup for two days.

"Yes, it’s the same kind of fish. There are a few that are slightly bigger, but that’s good because you can’t always train by fighting the same enemy with the same strength. You won’t be able to improve.

I already took care of four of the biggest ones that might have posed a problem, you guys deal with the rest." Chu Miao replied to Chichi and also reassured everyone that there wasn’t too much danger.

Of course, that also depended on whether they had experience or not. For a total noob, even one fish might pose the danger of losing one’s life, but for an experienced fighter, you might find that even five are nothing for them.

Therefore, Chu Miao didn’t explain anything and simply let them discover it by themselves.

While Chichi was asking questions and the teammates who had gone on the last supply hunt expedition before understood what she was talking about, the other soldiers and the Li family didn’t understand.

However, at least the Li family had drunk the soup from those fish as the cooler boxes sent the previous night filled to the brim with meat had a generous amount of fish fillet and fish head to make soup.

"Sister fairy, when you say we will go into the water, do you mean we will be capturing fish while in the flood water?" Fu Nie asked this because he hadn’t understood what was really happening.

If they had to sink into the water, wouldn’t they get wet? Also, the water was dirty and it was still raining heavily, how were they supposed to complete the mission? Moreover, catching fish wasn’t a big deal, why did she make it sound as if it was something dangerous?

When Chu Miao heard the question she knew that some of the teammates might have misunderstood her. They thought that she was giving them a mission to catch fish. She was afraid that if they entered the water with that mentality they would be dead before they figured out what was happening.

"You are not capturing fish, you are killing them. We will take what is edible back home and leave the rest. Also, you are not dealing with ordinary fish, you are going to be dealing with fish the size of a whale.

But these fish have mutated and are very aggressive. They eat humans, especially those with superpower. They are an attractive tonic for them that can help them get stronger.

While some are just mutated fish that won’t have much of an effect on you if you are bitten or scratched, there are some among them that have become zombie fish already. You don’t know which is which so you have to be careful and make sure none of the fish hurts you.

Don’t underestimate them. They have the ability to use water as a weapon. They can shoot water pillars, water arrows, and water blades at you. If you are not careful, you will die without knowing how.

Therefore, I emphasize again, be very careful when you get into the water. Don’t think I am making things difficult for you or doing something useless. While this is also a way of hunting for food, and if you manage to kill more fish you will obviously have more meat in the future, it is also a way to diversify our training.

We don’t know what we will face in the future. If by bad luck we meet an enemy in the future who thrives on fighting under water and we have absolutely no experience, what do you think will happen to us?

I personally don’t have a problem fighting underwater because I can manipulate water to bend to my will. What about you guys who can’t even hold your breath for a minute?

We have to prepare in all aspects. So, get into the water and fight like your life depends on it. Let’s end the battle quickly and don’t waste too much energy.

Also, you have to remember that in there, you are fighting as a team not individuals, so, get to understand each other during the fight and provide support when and where needed. Do you all understand me?" Chu Miao asked after feeling that she had explained everything there was to explain to the team.
