Giant Fish Survival: I Can Hear the Giant Fish's Heart

However, after searching for about three hours, Zhou Wen only found a gold-rimmed supply box, which Jiang Haitao had encountered before. But because of the 20-meter-long biological guardian, Jiang Haitao felt he couldn't defeat it, so he left.

Zhou Wen glanced into the space and saw a 20-meter-long arapaima. Its scales were large and thick, as if it were wearing a thick layer of armor. The scales changed color under different angles of light, making it look extremely dazzling.

With about four hours left before the trial ended, plus the return time, Zhou Wen didn't have much time to waste.

"Brother Wen, be careful." Although Zhou Wen had always fed him large creatures, this was the first time Jiang Haitao had seen Zhou Wen fight a large creature, and he was still a little worried.

"20 meters is nothing."

Zhou Wen first used the axe-wielding hammer to repair the shell of the shrimp's damaged head armor. Then, holding a long steel knife, he entered the arena and walked straight toward the large arapaima in the center area.

The large arapaima immediately spotted Zhou Wen, swung its broad tail, twisted its massive body, and quickly rushed in front of Zhou Wen. Then, it instantly opened its large mouth, which was covered by bony armor, and tried to swallow Zhou Wen whole.

Zhou Wen took out a large piece of shieldfish meat from the supply box and held it in front of him. The giant arapaima didn't know how a piece of fish meat suddenly appeared in front of it, and it took a bite of the fish meat.

Zhou Wen directly withstood the impact from the Arapaima. With his current constitution at nearly 70 points and the shield fish meat as a buffer, the impact of the Arapaima did not harm Zhou Wen at all.

The moment the arapaima collided with Zhou Wen, Zhou Wen plunged his steel longsword into the arapaima's head, then swam upwards with a burst of speed, climbed onto the arapaima's head, grabbed the hilt of the sword with both hands, and pulled it back sharply.

The sharp, steel blade, like scissors cutting through cloth, left a huge wound about 15 meters long on the back of the arapaima.

The wound was not only long but also deep; the 1.3-meter blade was almost entirely submerged in the flesh of the giant arapaima, and scarlet blood gushed out, quickly staining the surrounding seawater red.

Next, Zhou Wen waited for the Arapaima to bleed to death. He ignored the struggling Arapaima and went straight to the gold-rimmed supply box, then opened it.

[Ding! Obtained the blueprint for the blade-leaf fish power unit.]

[Ding! Obtained the blueprint for the Colorful Giant Arapaima Scale Armor.]

"Power unit?" Zhou Wen glanced at the two blueprints, then proceeded to use them to check the requirements for production.

[Blueprint for the Bladefish Power Unit: Requires 6 Bladefish, 10 Steel Ingots, 50 Glass, and a certain amount of seawater.]

[Colorful Arapaima Scale Armor Blueprint: Requires 50 Colorful Arapaima Scales and 100 Cloth Pieces.]

Zhou Wen was unable to build the power unit for the Blade Leaf Fish because he lacked the necessary materials. So, after killing the Arapaima, he directly crafted the Arapaima Scale Armor.

"Isn't this brightly colored armor too eye-catching?" Zhou Wen was wearing the dazzling Arapaima scale armor, making him look very colorful, which was quite out of character for his low-key personality.

Moreover, the head of the armor is shaped like the head of a colorful giant arapaima, and its appearance gives off a sense of innocent stupidity.

Zhou Wen now has three integrated sets: the Bladefin Yellowtail Scale Armor, the Axeman Hammer Shrimp Shell Heavy Armor, and the Dazzling Giant Arapaima Scale Armor.

After a simple test, the Arapaima Scale Armor was found to be the worst of the three integrated sets, as it was less agile and defensive than the Bladefin Yellowtail Scale Armor. While the Axeman Hammer Shrimp Shell Heavy Armor was not agile enough, it was strong in defense.

"Let's use it as a reward for guild members."

Although it's not as good as the other two sets, it's still much better than the White Scale Armor, and it's also lighter. 20 points of strength should be enough to use it, and 30 points of strength should be enough to use it flexibly.

【Vibrant Arapaima】

Body length: 20 meters

Weight: 60 tons

Food type: Meat

Description: A type of fish with colorful scales, covered in armor, fierce in nature, edible, and whose scales can be used to make armor.

After reviewing the information about the Arapaima, Zhou Wen began to dismantle the carcass and eat some of the fish meat to see how much it would increase his stats.

[Ding! Consumed Colorful Giant Arapaima Meat. Strength +1, Constitution +2, Speed ​​+1.]

After quickly cutting up the flesh of the colorful giant arapaima, Zhou Wen walked out of the arena.

"Brother Wen, you're amazing! You killed a 20-meter-long creature with a single strike!"

Jiang Haitao saw Zhou Wen forcefully block the impact of the Arapaima, then use a long black knife to make a cut on the Arapaima's back, leaving a bloody mess.

Shortly afterward, Zhou Wen walked out of the blood-stained area, appearing unusually relaxed.

"I already said it's nothing," Zhou Wen said, handing Jiang Haitao a piece of colorful arapaima meat.

With little time left, Zhou Wen and Jiang Haitao stopped searching for other supply boxes and began heading back towards the maze exit. Two hours later, they returned to the deserted area where they had previously hidden.

"When you faced that group of people, did you give your name?" Zhou Wen asked Jiang Haitao.

“No, their leader is from the ‘Soaring’ guild. I already have some conflicts with Zhao Teng, and I’m afraid that if I give my name, they will take action directly,” Jiang Haitao replied.

"There are still a lot of survivors gathered at the exit, right?" Zhou Wen asked again.

"Yes." Jiang Haitao nodded.

"Give me the scales of the yellowtail with its sharp fins, and I'll give you a good boost in prestige this time."

Zhou Wen glanced at Jiang Haitao. The two were about the same height and build, he was just a little thinner, but when he put on the yellow-scaled armor, it was barely noticeable.

Then he took out six spiked armors from his supply box and handed them to Jiang Haitao to wear, along with a bone armor mask. Zhou Wen himself put on Jiang Haitao's blade-finned yellow ribbonfish scale armor.

Zhou Wen's strength has now reached 56.5 points. With the addition of five free attribute points, his strength has reached 61.5 points. Wearing the Bladefin Yellow Ribbonfish Scale Armor, he can move around very easily.

Zhou Wen briefly explained the plan to Jiang Haitao before following him to the exit of the underwater maze.

Jiang Haitao was hiding not far from the exit. After about ten minutes, he entered a long passage. The end of the passage was crowded with people, at least one or two thousand people at first glance.

"These beasts! Let's charge over there and fight them!"

"How can we fight over a hundred people, all in armor?"

"Don't panic. Let's rush in together when the trial is almost over. By then, the world system should teleport us away, increasing our chances of survival."

A large number of survivors gathered together, each with an angry expression, but they were powerless against the armored survivors outside who were killing indiscriminately. Being able to penetrate armor meant strong defense and superior strength.

The passageway leading to the exit is quite narrow, and although there are many of them, only 20 people can pass through at a time, so the advantage of having a number of one or two thousand cannot be fully utilized.

Just then, a humanoid fish-like monster covered in yellow scales walked out from behind.
