Chapter 47: Mayor’s Reward

Ye Cang began chopping up the corpses. His backpack was filled with fishman meat, fishman eyes and fishman scales. He looked over at a meter wide pond which had faint flickers of light on the surface. He arrived beside it and found it immersed inside.

A fist sized night-luminescent pearl glistened in the middle of the pond. The slight ripples in the water carried a gentle light, giving off a peaceful cozy feeling. Ye Cang reached in and took it out. Night had just fallen, and the shining pearl attracted everyone’s admiration.

Blue Night-Luminescent Pearl (Treasure): A high quality night-luminescent pearl. It’s not cheap.

Ye Cang took it and indifferently said: “Mission complete, let’s go back to town to turn it in.”

ThornyRose and the others didn’t say anything, they knew it was probably some quest item.

At night, the river looked exceptionally peaceful. The rushing of water and rustling of leaves mixed together making a comfortable sound. Suddenly they heard something unnatural. Ye Cang quickly pulled out his two-handed sword. “Fishmen are coming! Everyone be careful!”

Everyone prepared for battle and looked around alert. They raised their torches towards the source of the sound.

A large swarm of fishmen appeared, making ThornyRose frown. Why was there so much? They might be screwed. “Retreat!”

When the fishmen saw the ring on Ye Cang’s hand, they immediately stopped. They all started to grumble and gurgle, all trying to speak at once. They looked very happy as they jumped into the river and swam away. There was one that was only slightly smaller than Gil Rage. It raised it’s harpoon and waved towards Ye Cang. It’s other hand patted it’s chest, and gurgled with gratitude.

Ye Cang waved back, patted his own chest, and shouted with a smile “Mrgle Mmmm!”

The boss like fishman let out what should be laugh and swam away.

Everyone looked blankly at Ye Cang who looked like he was having a happy conversation with them.

Ye Cang felt everyone’s suspicious stare, and shrugged. He faintly smiled and explained: “The fishmen earlier were from the Blue Scaled Rebel Army, along with their chief – Yoji. They saw my ring and knew we had killed the blue scaled fishman chief – Gil Rage, I just confirmed it. Right now they are rushing to occupy the territory upstream. Before he left we became good friends and he said I would always be a friend of the fishmen. He said I should come over to play when I’m free, he’d give me a tour. Then the system said my reputation with the blue scaled fishmen became revered. I’m now an honorary warrior of the blue scaled fishmen tribe.”

“Brother Lil’White, so cool! I want to be the tribe’s warrior too! Too bad I can’t speak fishman…” Lin Le pouted enviously, feeling a bit of regret.

What the *! That can happen!? He got reputation with a monster race and it’s actually revered!? An honorary warrior!? ThornyRose, FrozenBlood, and SpyingBlade felt their stomachs hurting. That ring! But thinking it over, it required the fishman language to trigger the event.

“Brother PaleSnow. Tomorrow, can you bring everyone to the fishmen village to look around!? That reputation whatever, we want to establish one too.” SpyingBlade said. ThornyRose also thought of it. Having reputation with a hidden faction would be useful. They would have their own merchants which would sell unique items, and there would definitely be many quests.
