Chapter 59: Blue Scaled Fishman Tribe

“Then let’s go check it out while it’s not dark out.” ThornyRose nodded.

“Brother Lil’White, I want to make my handcart. Help me make my handcart first.” Lin Le’s words confused everyone. Handcart? Ye Cang had Lin Le show him the list of materials. There wasn’t anything difficult, they could get everything at Granny Rica’s store. Ye Cang nodded and said: “Let’s meet up at the southeast gate in half an hour.”

Crude Peddlers Handcart (Small Handcart – Common): Can carry a certain amount of items. Makes it easier to sell the items in the cart. Damage dealt with cart related skills +15%. Can be summoned and dismissed.

ThornyRose nodded and didn’t argue. She figured it had to do with his hidden class. Since it would be finished quickly, then might as well wait for it. “Ok, we’ll wait for you there.”

Saying that, ThornyRose brought the others to leave first. Ye Cang brought his group of three to Rica’s store. He found some timber and other parts, and let Lin Le build his handcart. A two meter long, four wheeled, wooden cart was created.

“Brother Lil’White, this cart can hold so much stuff and we can set it up as a stall wherever we go.” Lin Le smiled and giggled with his new toy.

Ye Cang thought it over. It was pretty good, he could use it as a small storage. He took all the fishman and werewolf meat and put it inside, yet it only took up a small portion of the cart. He set the price of the meat to 2 silver per pound. Then Lin Le recalled it causing it to dissapear before everyone’s eyes.

“Granny Rice, do you know anything about the fishmen?” Ye Cang asked.

“Mm, how should I say it. They’ve lived at Riley river outside of Really New Village for thousands of years, so they were here long before the human settlers first arrived. Most of the time, both sides would just mind their own business. Although both sides don’t think well of each other, but it rarely causes any conflict. On the rare occasions we fight, there are never any grudges. Afterall, it’s very difficult for humans to fight in the water against aquatic creatures.” Rica said quietly while wiping the table.

Having not learned anything new, Ye Cang brought his party to meet up with ThornyRose. They faced the southeast and walked towards Riley River, then following the riverbank. ThornyRose noticed that she had an extra buff. Aura of Vigor? Strength and Constitution +2? Too good! It would give everyone more health! She looked around, but it didn’t take much effort to learn who the aura belonged to. It definitely belonged to Zhang ZhengXiong. This was an aura that only priests and paladins could have. The other had also noticed and all praised it in their hearts.

Eventually, they met a group of blue scaled fishmen. Ye Cang stepped forwards showing his ring and used his blue scaled fishman honorary warrior title. They were then guided to the fishman village which was situated at a wider part of the river.

A fishman sage guided Ye Cang and his party to the current chief – Yoji’s tent.

Everyone watched as Ye Cang started chatting and laughing with the huge fishman. All they heard were gurgling noises and other nonsense. Then the two embraced. The rest of the party felt awkward, just what the heck was going on?

Ye Cang returned to them and explained. “In order to obtain chief Yoji’s trust, we have to help out and gain the trust of the villagers. Only then will their high priests be willing to discuss an alliance against the werewolves.”

“So we have to stay in the blue scaled fishman village and accept the villager’s quests?” SpyingBlade asked, raising his eyebrow.

“That’s right…” Ye Cang nodded.
