Banner of the Evil God

The giant fish didn't accept Sui Xiong's invitation in the end.

This didn't surprise Sui Xiong. Judging from its appearance, it had probably gotten used to life in the underground cave. If it went out, it might not be able to adapt.

Moreover, Sui Xiong found that the water in the underground lake was fresh water. If it went out, it would either find a big lake to live in or try to adapt to salt water. As far as Sui Xiong knew, most freshwater fish couldn't adapt to salt water. No matter how strong their bodies were, they couldn't adapt.

Besides, even if they could adapt, would it really be good to go out?

On the way out, Sui Xiong thought about this question.

Staying in the underground lake, although the space was not big enough, at least it was enough to accommodate. Although it was hard to find food, it was not dangerous. For the giant fish with a simple mind, such a life was quite stable, and there was no need to change it.

On the contrary, after going out, there was no telling what kind of risks he would encounter in the vast world.

Thinking of this, he felt relieved.

For the giant fish, staying where it is may not be the best choice, but it is the safest choice. Although this kind of life is certainly not pleasant, compared with safety, a little happiness should be given up.

But... can it really be given up?

Sui Xiong thought carefully.

If he were that fish, would he stick to a boring and lonely life for safety?

Of course not.

If he really wanted to, he would not leave the sea. Being a deep-sea overlord is quite safe, with almost no risk.

But he eventually left the sea, landed on land, came into contact with civilized society, and did many things.

"I am a human, not a fish." He said to himself, "Fish can adapt to such a dull and boring lonely life, but people can't."

In fact, he is already a very patient person. He has been practicing in the icy trench for thousands of years. There are probably not many people who can do this.

In the fairy tales, the cultivators who often retreat for decades or hundreds of years at any time don't know the passage of time when they are practicing.

After leaving the mountain where the strange giant fish lived, Sui Xiong thought about it and cast a spell to add a barrier to the mountain.

This barrier has no other effect, but it makes people feel that it is boring and instinctively unwilling to approach it. It is not powerful, but it has a magical power that moistens things silently. Even legendary strongmen will not feel its existence, but will only be affected unconsciously.

Of course, this barrier cannot stop the demigod strongmen. But if a demigod strongman really approaches, it will have another effect and tell the other party the ins and outs of the matter.

Naturally, none of the strongmen who can step into the demigod realm are unreasonable and stupid. They will not go against Sui Xiong for a mere giant fish.

If they insist on doing so, the barrier will notify Sui Xiong. If he is free at that time, he may stop it.

For the giant fish living under the mountain, such a barrier should be enough.

In fact, Sui Xiong felt that he might be doing something unnecessary. The giant fish had lived in the underground lake for who knows how many years, and it had been safe and sound. There was no reason for anything to happen in the future.

If something really happened, he thought... maybe this guy ate too many demons and died of poisoning. This possibility was relatively high!

Thinking of this, Sui Xiong couldn't help laughing.

"Summoning demons as food, it's really amazing that this guy thought of it!"

In addition to this interesting giant fish, there were no other particularly dangerous things in the area to be jointly explored. There were still some ogres and giant monsters, and the strongest one of them was even close to the legendary realm, but for Sui Xiong, these were not a problem.

With Clito, a legendary mid-level leader, leading the team, even the mutant minotaur close to the legendary realm was nothing to be afraid of.

Speaking of which, the minotaur also had a little bit of characteristics. Other mutant minotaurs usually had four arms, but it had four legs.

Generally speaking, minotaurs have bull hooves and bull heads, but their torsos and upper limbs are similar to those of humans. This minotaur also has a bull head, and its torso and upper limbs are no different from those of ordinary minotaurs, but its waist and below grow into the shape of a bull, just like the famous monster "Centaur".

Or... should it be called "Centaur"?

However, it does not have a human head, so it should not be called that.

Sui Xiong did not pay much attention to this mutant monster, because he could see that it was the result of a magic experiment.

Magicians often do some magic experiments, and it is also common to create some strange creatures in them. Like this "Centaur", it is actually quite normal, and there are even more weird ones.

Sui Xiong has heard that there are evil magicians who merged humans and monsters to create real half-human, half-demon monsters. They are also keen on breeding them, hoping to pass on the artificial species that were forcibly mixed together through normal reproduction to form a stable new species.

I have never heard of anyone being able to succeed in such an experiment, but many magicians have been put on the target list and attacked by adventurers because of it.

This centaur has a strange magic mark on it, and it probably escaped from a magician's laboratory. Or it killed the magician and used force to seize its freedom.

All of these are possible, but they are not important.

Because this guy is a vegetarian.

Sui Xiong has carefully observed it. It is really a vegetarian, and it only eats vegetarian food, not meat at all. Near its nest, rabbits and goats are leisurely and casually, obviously not afraid of it at all. On the contrary, there is no trace of wild beasts and monsters. It seems that although this guy does not eat meat, he is not without a sense of territory - this should remind Clito not to rush into conflict with it.

As for the various wild beasts and monsters left in the mountain, they are really not worth mentioning. This mountainous area is not very large. There is the "centaur" on the surface and the giant fish underground, which has almost occupied the top position of the food chain. The remaining space is not enough to feed those powerful monsters.

In nature, the more powerful the monster is, the larger the territory it needs. There must be human factors in such a situation where a large number of powerful and dangerous creatures live in a small space. This mountain area has not been affected by any human factors, so such strange things will not happen.

Sui Xiong also explored the situation of the mineral veins. There are indeed silver mines here, and the reserves are not low. Many of the associated minerals are also quite valuable and are indeed worth mining. Interestingly, the resources near the silver mine are obviously quite rich, but the centaur does not live near it, but lives in a particularly remote and barren valley. I wonder if it is smarter? Or has it suffered losses before?

Sui Xiong did not tell Clito and others the detailed information of the mineral veins. He felt that since they were going to jointly explore, they should explore it seriously.

He only told them one thing.

There are indeed silver mines here, and it is worth coming.
