At this time, the Fishman Elders beside it finally spoke.

"The Grand Elder is right."

"For hundreds of years since our ancestors, we’ve been fighting with those guys."

"According to the former Elders, when the tribe first migrated here."

"Those detestable Skeleton Knights numbered over hundreds."

"Even the weakest among them were comparable to us Overlord-Level Elders."

"Those clad in Golden Battle Armor were even much stronger than elders."

"Especially when they formed wars and charged at the lake shore, it was a nightmare."

When it said this, all the Fishmen present fell silent.

Although their fish-like heads didn’t show many expressions, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became solemn.

Since withdrawing from the range of the South Shore, the friction between both sides greatly reduced.

However, every ten to eight years, some of the Skeleton Knights awaken.

Returning to the surface, they go on a killing spree.

Their charges are able to reap Fishmen’s lives like mowing grass.

Not to mention ordinary Fishman Warriors, even Elite-level Steel Fork Fishman Warriors and Fishman Wavebreakers are skewered like sugar-coated haws by the Lion Skeleton Knights’ Lance Charge.

Each strike has an instant kill effect.

However, Fishmen have a formidable ability to reproduce, and they can escape into the water when outmatched.

Using their numerical advantage and traps like pits and marshes.

Over the years, they’ve managed to eliminate a good thirty to forty Lion Skeleton Knights.

Reducing the total number of Skeleton Knights to below sixty.

Thus, this time counts as a rare opportunity.

During these years, the Fishman population has also been supplemented significantly.

"This is the best time to eradicate them."

"But casualties are inevitable."

Another Fishman Elder lightly nodded its large fish head.

It wore a flamboyant shell necklace.

Each shell was half the size of a palm, embedded with differently colored Treasure Pearls.

These Treasure Pearls were approximately the size of an eye.

The Fishmen’s physiques were much smaller than humans’.

Such a necklace, let alone being worn by Fishmen, would still appear extravagant even on humans.

As it nodded, droplets of transparent mucus fell to the ground.

This situation was somewhat repulsive.

No wonder the ground here was always sticky and wet.

"This time is the best opportunity."

"If we wait for them to ravage, we’ll remain passive."

"Anyway, let’s deal with those Skeleton Knights guarding first."

"Bengbu, you take the elder’s order and gather all the Warriors."

The Fishman Elders’ views were basically unanimous, so the Grand Elder made the decision again.

Upon receiving its order, the Captain-Level Fishman Nightwalker swiftly exited the wooden house.

Fishmen don’t have the same cumbersome rituals.

"As long as we get rid of those Skeleton Knights guarding the relics."

"The rest will be much easier to deal with."

"Besides, we need powerful souls as sacrifices."

"By the way, Ji Lang should have already become an Overlord-Level Controller, right?"

"He can just check if there’s any suitable equipment for him in the relics."

"Additionally, his Condensed Water Staff needs polishing."

The Grand Elder spoke again, and all the Fishman Elders nodded.

A large number of Fishman Warriors began to gather.

This process doesn’t take too long, but still requires some preparation.

It is estimated it takes about one to two hours to fully gather the Fishman Warriors.

...

In the underground relics.

The last passage is being excavated fervently.

The entire underground relic has been expanded more than twice under their excavation.

The scattered dirt and gravel cleaned out were transported to the edge of the nearby woods.

There, they were piled into two small dirt hills.

Due to the cover of the woods, the Fishman Sentinels saw the situation of those two dirt hills.

Facing this last passage in the relic, Baron Bezos appeared very calm.

Just like Zong Shen, he had a strong desire to return.

He was firmly convinced that there was something he needed in that Golden Treasure Chest.

Thus, he planned to return quickly to Bang City for better convenience in further researching how to open the chest.

To expedite the completion of the relic excavation, he didn’t hesitate to add 5 Dinars to the laborers’ wages.

He also had Zong Shen urge the two Rodok Soldiers responsible for operating the Magic Energy Drilling Machines.

Moreover, now that it was nearing the end of excavation, there was no need to clear out the dirt anymore.

Much space had been opened up to accommodate those soil fragments.

Under such circumstances, the last passage took approximately more than an hour to be fully cleared.

The harvest from this passage was likewise the standard equipment of the Lion Knight Order.

The quantity is quite large, totaling 235 pieces, all Knight Full Body Armor.

Among them, the Legendary Level accounted for about one-third.

A total of 76 pieces.

The Rare Level adds up to 159 pieces.

Additionally, there was a Silver-status Treasure Chest.

With this, the relics here were thoroughly excavated.

Zong Shen also used the Guide Module to check, confirming there were no omissions here.

Baron Bezos and Zong Shen both breathed a sigh of relief.

However, now how to allocate this Silver Treasure Chest is a question.

After a simple test, Baron Bezos discovered the traits of this Silver Treasure Chest were almost identical to the Golden Treasure Chest, even the patterns on it were identical.
