World of Warcraft Murloc City Guide - Chapter 390

c390 Back to the backwater village

Jago, Brak, Thief Eye, Magofen and Little Naga gathered at the town center of Ratchet Town.

Among the five people, Jago had the heaviest task at hand. He was responsible for training fish farmers for Ratchet Town.

Yang Yi didn’t want to withdraw Jago, but considering that the multi-headed snake Geshalahan might be hidden in the underground river, he had to call the expert Jago as well.

There was also Little Naga. This little guy usually knew how to play, and he shouldn’t have been taken to that dangerous place. But Yang Yi really needed Little Naga’s ability, so he had to take her with him.

Little Naga’s sea witch profession is an elite profession, and her level is equivalent to Jago. And she has learned all the skills on the sea witch slate. If she performs well, her strength is not worse than Jago.

Without further ado, everyone was there, and Yang Yi immediately took them to Deadwater Village.

There is only one bat mount in Ratchet Town, which can’t carry so many people, so this time they can only walk there.

Six cargo kodo beasts, carrying Yang Yi and the other six people, set out from the west gate of Ratchet Town and lined up on the avenue.

There was also a tail behind the team, which was Yang Yi’s pet, the Dead Swamp Crocodile.

This time, Yang Yi put the wind snake Azeri in the animal pen and brought the Dead Swamp Crocodile with him.

Yang Yi actually had other ideas about bringing the Dead Swamp Crocodile with him. This big crocodile was large in size and had thick skin and flesh. If he really encountered a creature that he couldn’t beat in the underground river, just letting the Dead Swamp Crocodile take over would be enough to buy him some time.

The Dead Swamp Crocodile certainly didn’t know what his master was thinking.

It had been locked in the cage of the animal pen for a long time, and it finally came out once, and even ate a few big pieces of meat fed by its master. Now its happiness value was full and overflowing, and it was swaying left and right on the road, which was very impressive, giving its master enough face.

The cargo kodo beast team walked west along the avenue all day long.

Finally, we saw a patch of green ahead. It was the Dead Water Oasis.

Because the orcs used catapults when they attacked the centaurs in the Dead Water Oasis, countless incendiary bombs were poured on the oasis. All the trees in the Dead Water Oasis were burned in that battle, leaving only a charred ground.

After a period of recuperation, especially after a heavy rain, the Dead Water Oasis regained its vitality.

Although there was no big tree, the weeds and thorns with tenacious vitality had already occupied this land again.

Slark was looking forward to it. When he saw Yang Yi and his friends coming, he ran over to welcome them into the Dead Water Village.

After walking for a day, everyone settled down in the inn and set out to find the empty wine barrel of the little fish man after a good rest.

Yang Yi and Slark learned about the situation.

From Slark, he learned that the reason why the empty wine barrel of the little fish man rushed to the orc stronghold in the Sweet Water Oasis to inquire about the situation was because of the [mutated fish] matter.

Since Yang took the [Delicious Wind Snake] to the auction house in Thunder Bluff and sold it at an astonishingly high price of one gold coin per copy, the price of [Mutated Fish], the main material for making [Delicious Wind Snake], has risen sharply, and fishing for [Mutated Fish] has become the main source of income for Deadwater Village.

This is also the first time since the establishment of Deadwater Village that there has been a surplus, and it can even feed back to Ratchet Town.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long.

As the murlocs of Deadwater Village continued to fish on a large scale, the [Mutated Fish] in the Deadwater Oasis Lake was rapidly decreasing. At the same time, the price of [Mutated Fish] has not risen but fallen, falling sharply every day.

Now the only known sources of [Mutated Fish] are a few oasis lakes in the barren land, so the little murloc Kong Jiutong volunteered to go to the Sweetwater Oasis to inquire about the situation.

This matter was originally nothing, but Kong Jiutong has always been bold, and he, a little murloc, went into the underground sewer.

Now it has been more than ten days since the little murloc left the note and left, and Slark is very worried. It is unknown whether the murloc and the empty barrel got lost in the underground sewer, or got trapped somewhere, or met with an accident.

“Lord, there are several murlocs in the village who have followed the empty barrel to explore the underground sewer. You can let them go with you.” Slark said.

“You can’t bring too many murlocs. Just find a smart one to lead the way.” Yang Yi said.

“Yes. Slark wants to go with you tomorrow.” Slark said.

Yang Yi shook his head: “Old Blind stayed in Ratchet Town for this operation, and so do you. You have to stay and take care of Deadwater Village.”

Yang Yi made a decision, and Slark had to obey.

Next, Yang Yi learned about the recent situation of Deadwater Village.

First of all, the first good news came from Slark. He has learned the preparation of [Limited Invincibility Potion] and successfully promoted to a Level 5 Alchemist.

Ratchet Town has finally cultivated a high-level alchemist, and Slark has the specialty of “Mixed Potion”. So if we don’t consider the success rate, Slark can already prepare a level 6 alchemy potion.

Unlike skinning, herbalism, mining and other gathering industries, the training process of an alchemist requires a lot of resources. Especially in the early stage, in order to quickly improve the level, a large amount of materials are used to practice, and the materials of alchemy are particularly expensive. Considering the success rate, the prepared alchemy potion is often not worth half of the material money.

So every high-level alchemist is actually built up by gold coins. Fortunately, Slark has expertise in alchemy, otherwise Ratchet Town can’t afford it.

Slark became a high-level alchemist, and with his expertise, he can be considered to have made it.

“Lord, this is the [Limited Invincibility Potion] I recently made. Drinking it can make you immune to physical attacks for 6 seconds. Take it with you. You can use it if you encounter danger.” Slark took out several bottles of yellow potions.

Yang Yi nodded and accepted them.

In addition to Slark’s alchemy upgrade, Deadwater Village has had other new developments recently.

The most influential one is that the outpost built by the tribal orcs in Deadwater Oasis has been completed.

After defeating the Kokar Centaur in Sweetwater Oasis, the orcs withdrew from Deadwater Village, but did not leave Deadwater Oasis. They built a circle of log walls on a small hillside near the Golden Road on the other side of the lake and established an outpost.

This outpost is not large, and there are usually about 300 orc warriors stationed here.

After these orc warriors moved in, many adventurers came after hearing the news. This has brought new vitality to the nearby Dead Water Village. The flow of people in the commercial area has increased. Finally, several shops along the street have been rented out, and Dead Water Village can finally collect some rent.

So Dead Water Village now has three main sources of income: the first is the [Delicious Wind Snake] made by catching [Mutated Fish], the second is the alchemy potion prepared by Slark, and the third is the income from the commercial area.

With these incomes, Dead Water Village can also be self-sufficient.
