Reborn with the Infinite World Panel-Chapter 175 - 172: Infinite World 24

[Welcome, players, to the Fish Islands. Each of you must survive on the Fish Islands for half a month.]

"Xiao Xiao, where are we going now?" Wen Yun asked.

"Let’s first visit the NPC’s house of Six." She wanted to verify if the strategy she saw was true or not.

Si Lingle released the Evil Beasts, and everyone rode on one as they headed towards the center of the island.

The house of Six is right at the island’s center.

Six’s house is easy to recognize; it is built around a big tree.

It’s a standard treehouse.

After more than an hour, they found Six’s house.

"Wow!" Xing Yue’s eyes lit up, "This house is so beautiful. Xiao Xiao, can we stay here?"

"We’ll have to ask the owner of the house." Si Lingle said.

The group walked up to the house, and Si Lingle knocked on the door.

After a while, a laid-back young man came to the door.

The young man yawned and glanced around, "What do you want?"

"Your house is beautiful. We were wondering if we could rent a room to stay?" Si Lingle smiled.

"So many of you, just rent one room?"

"We three girls will stay inside, and they can sleep outside in the wild."

Wen Feng and the other three guys: "..."

"Please, this treehouse is just too beautiful." Wen Yun pleaded, looking eagerly at the young man.

"We can pay rent." Si Lingle said, "Half a month, and we’ll pay you ten thousand gold coins per person. How about that?"

"Sure." Six nodded.

Si Lingle gave the gold coins to Six, and after receiving the money, Six led the three into the treehouse.

As for Wen Feng and the other men wanting to follow in, Six said, "You didn’t pay, so you can’t come in."

Wen Feng and the others could only wait outside the door.

Inside the treehouse, they found the large tree trunk located right in the living room.

Six had built a table around the tree trunk.

Wen Yun and Xing Yue couldn’t have been happier.

They both immediately sat down around the table.

Si Lingle followed Six to see their rooms.

"These mats are for you, and if they don’t fit, one person can sleep on the floor."

"Thank you." Si Lingle nodded.

"By the way, the ten thousand rent does not include meals. If you want to eat, you’ll have to pay an additional meal fee."

"How much is the meal fee for the seven of us?"

"I’ll charge you 100 gold coins per meal."

"Okay." Si Lingle first paid for today’s lunch and dinner to Six.

After having lunch, the seven of them started exploring the Fish Islands.

There were quite a few NPCs on the Fish Islands, with over a thousand residents.

While walking down a street, Si Lingle saw three women casually chatting.

After a glance, Si Lingle approached, "Hello, beautiful ladies, could I ask you some questions?"

"Oh my, such a sweet talker."

"What do you want to know?"

"Are there any rumors about the Fish Islands?"

"Oh, there are many." One of the women clapped her hands, "It’s said that the Fish Islands are so named because they are home to a Big Fish Fairy."

"The Big Fish Fairy blesses the island, ensuring full catches every time the islanders go fishing."

"And that’s how it came to be called the Fish Islands."

Si Lingle responded, "Then why not call it Fish Fairy Island? Wouldn’t that make more sense?"

"Originally, it was called Fish Fairy Island, but the Fish Fairy on the island preferred a different name. Thus, it was changed to Fish Islands since it allows islanders to bring home bountiful catches of fish."

"And what happened to the Fish Fairy?"

"It died," the woman replied. "To protect the island, it perished in a massive tsunami."

"I heard there used to be a temple dedicated to the Fish Fairy, but over time, fewer people have gone to pay their respects."

"Where is this Fish Fairy’s temple located?"

The woman provided Si Lingle with the location.

Further, the woman shared other rumors.

However, Si Lingle found most of these rumors unrelated.

Only the rumors about the Fish Fairy seemed significant to Si Lingle.

Afterward, Si Lingle and the group headed to the Fish Immortal Temple.

Predictably, no one was visiting the Fish Immortal Temple anymore, and there was no path leading to it, with wild grasses overgrown.

Si Lingle used Magic Curse Technique to carve out a path.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the Fish Immortal Temple.

The Fish Immortal Temple was in a dilapidated state, and even the stone statues had collapsed.

Si Lingle thought: Every night there are storms on the Fish Islands, and the Fish Monsters attack.

Could it be due to the Fish Fairy?

If they repair the Fish Immortal Temple, might they obtain something valuable?!

Si Lingle said, "Anyway, since we are idle, why not repair this Fish Immortal Temple together?"

Tai Shun’an said, "Repair a temple?!!! Did I hear wrong?"

"You didn’t hear wrong, indeed we’re repairing a temple."

"Are you so full with nothing better to do that you’re coming to repair a temple?" Tai Shun’an said, unwilling.

"The task is to survive; nothing dangerous happens during daytime; why not find something to do?" Si Lingle said to Tai Shun’an, "If you don’t want to, you can leave."

"I won’t force anyone."

Tai Shun’an looked at the others, none of whom left.

Eventually, he stayed and joined in repairing the temple.

As for the materials for repairing the temple, Si Lingle bought them in the Mall.

With many hands, they spent over three hours to restore the temple.

After that, Si Lingle and the others offered some food to the Fish Immortal.

They then received a System Message.

[System Message]: Repairing the Fish Immortal Temple, acquired Fish Immortal’s Blessing and Protection, lasts for 24 hours.

[System Message]: Offering to the Fish Immortal, earned 1000 Experience Points, received 100 gold coins, and obtained one Defense Card.

Tai Shun’an looked at Si Lingle, shocked, "Xiao Xiao, did you think of this, which is why you had us repair the Fish Immortal Temple?"

"I did consider it, but wasn’t sure if it would work," Si Lingle smiled. "I didn’t expect that I’d actually guessed it right."

"Amazing!" Tai Shun’an gave a thumbs up.

None of them thought repairing something within a quest could actually yield rewards.

"Tonight, let’s not leave. We’ll stay in this temple and observe," Si Lingle said.

The others had no objections and agreed with Si Lingle’s suggestion.

They casually ate something and stayed in the temple.

When it got dark, the island began to have a storm, but inside the temple, they were unaffected.

An hour or so later, Fish Monsters came ashore.

They started rampant destruction and attacks.

Other players were hiding in the homes of some island residents.

Of course, some veteran players dared to fight the Fish Monsters proactively.

While in the Fish Immortal Temple, the Fish Monsters wouldn’t come near.

"This Fish Immortal Temple is indeed a safe zone." Wen Feng said, "Then this task, we just need to stay in the Fish Immortal Temple." There’s no need to search for other safe areas.

At this time, Si Lingle said, "Don’t always think about staying in safe zones. Now that we have the Fish Immortal’s protection, we should go and kill the Fish Monsters to gain experience."

Not seizing this opportunity to improve themselves while staying in the Fish Immortal Temple is truly a waste of the Fish Immortal’s blessing and protection.

Wen Feng: "..."

"Come on, let’s go and hunt Fish Monsters."

"Let’s listen to Xiao Xiao and go hunt Fish Monsters." Xing Yue exclaimed excitedly.
