Chapter 10: The Silver Fish in the Underground River

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

With a “plop,” Noah fell into an underground river.

Noah struggled to the surface and looked around in surprise.

He fell into a small lake that glowed with blue light. There were countless fish-like creatures that glowed with silver light swimming in the lake.

Above Noah’s head were countless stone pillars that emitted green light, just like stalactites.

There were also firefly-like creatures flying in the air as well.

Noah quickly swam to the shore and looked around in surprise.

“Where am I again?” Noah only felt that he was extremely unlucky. Before he could figure out where he was, he had fallen into another strange place.

Fortunately, he had escaped the pursuit of the wolf pack and saved his life.

Noah slowly stood up and thought about how to leave this place.

To his surprise, the underground space was unusually warm. He had clearly fallen into the lake, but he did not feel cold at all. He even felt like he was in an air-conditioned room, extremely comfortable.

Looking at the lake in front of him, Noah had a rough idea. The lake was flowing, and the lake that was flashing with blue light seemed to be the end of the underground river. As long as he followed the direction of the flow, he should be able to find the exit.

After making up his mind, Noah began to set off in the direction of the lake.

However, this underground river was a little too long. After walking for an unknown amount of time, he could not see the end at all.

At this moment, Noah felt hungry again.

Looking at the fish that jumped out of the underground river from time to time, Noah had an idea.

Noah immediately walked to the side of the underground river and squatted down, waiting for the fish to jump out again.

After a while, the silver fish jumped out of the river again. Noah found the right time and pounced on them, but he overestimated his speed. By the time he pounced, the fish had already jumped back into the river.

Noah felt that it was a pity, but he was not discouraged by this failure. Instead, he patiently waited for the fish to jump out of the water again.

After a while, the fish jumped out of the water again. This time, Noah was quick to react and pounced on it.

“I caught it.”

This time, Noah caught the fish, but before he could be happy, the fish shook its body and broke free from Noah’s hand.

“This is too hard to catch!” Noah sighed. The silver fish was so slippery that it was impossible to catch it, as if it was covered in a layer of butter.

The two consecutive losses also aroused Noah’s competitiveness.

He was not leaving until he caught a fish today!

Hence, Noah began to wait patiently again. There were a few times when he almost caught the fish, but the fish always slipped away from his hands.

After a few times, Noah had also summed up his experience. He could grasp the timing when the fish jumped out of the water, but he could not grasp it firmly.

With that thought, Noah took off his already wet clothes and wrapped them around his hand as a fishing net.

Just then, several silver fish jumped out of the water again. Noah wrapped his hands around his clothes and caught them.

“Yes!”

The two silver fish were finally caught by Noah’s net.

“Hahaha! Finally!” Noya shouted excitedly.

The two silver fish struggled in Noah’s clothes for a long time, but it was in vain.

Noah also saw the appearance of the silver fish. Each silver fish was the size of a palm, and they were shining with silver light. Their bodies were also translucent, but to Noah’s surprise, there was nothing inside the silver fish. It was as if they were just outer shells.

At this moment, a miraculous scene happened. The struggling fish instantly stopped struggling. Under Noah’s eyes, the two fish turned into two silver lights and entered Noah’s body.

“Where’s the fish?” Looking at the disappearing fish, Noah was puzzled, but he suddenly felt that he was not so hungry anymore. It was the same feeling he had when he absorbed the two crystals. It was as if some kind of energy had been replenished in his body.

Although he was not very hungry, Noah was not happy. Why did he catch the fish? Just to fill his stomach?

He wanted to eat meat! Having been in this world for so long, he had not eaten meat for a long time. He finally thought that he would be able to eat fish, but in the end, the fish that was in his mouth flew away!

Noah was a little angry, but he did not say anything. After the silver light entered his body, his originally weak spirit seemed to have been supplemented with sufficient energy.

Noah could only accept the reality that he could not eat fish and caught a few more whitebait.

After a few attempts, he gradually discovered that these silver fish were not real fish. As long as these fish left the underground river, they would turn into silver light in less than five minutes and then enter Noah’s body.

As more and more silver light entered his body, Noah seemed to find that there was more and more special energy in his body. He also became more and more energetic, and the most obvious thing was that his senses were becoming clearer.

He could even feel the movement dozens of meters away!

Just like that, Noah continued to move in the direction of the underground river. When he was hungry, he would catch a few fish to replenish his strength.

Finally, Noah did not know how long he had been walking. After reaching a fault more than three meters high, Noah finally saw light.

Noah was instantly excited. After walking for so long, he finally saw hope.

He could not even remember how many fish he had eaten. There were at least a hundred of them, and he could not eat anymore as he felt that the special energy in his body seemed to be full.

Noah had a feeling that he would not be so weak if he were to cast fireball again. He vaguely guessed that the mysterious force in his body should be magic.

However, Noah did not have the time to think about this. Getting out of this dark underground river was the most important thing.

After crawling through more than ten faults, Noah finally came out of the underground river!

There was no longer a forest in front of him, but a vast plain!

At this moment, a loud and clear cry came from the sky. Noah looked up and saw a huge bird nearly twenty meters long gliding past at an incredible speed.

“What is that?” A look of fear flashed across Noah’s face. Although they were nearly a thousand meters apart, Noah had a faint feeling that this big bird was definitely fiercer than the giant wolves and bears he had seen.

Noah did not dare to move forward for a while. When he saw that the giant bird had disappeared, he walked forward with a nervous mood.

“This world is too dangerous. I have to find the humans as soon as possible. Even though Noah thought so, he was not sure if there were humans in this world. However, he had already gone so far, so he could only continue moving forward.”

After crossing countless small hills, the forest behind him could only be seen vaguely, but Noah still could not see a single person.

Just as Noah was about to rest, a cloud of dust rose from the distant plains.

Noah looked over. At first, there were a few black dots. Then, he gradually saw that it was a group of horses. Nearly twenty horses were galloping toward him.

“What?” Noah was overjoyed. Had he finally found a human?

Noah’s nose turned sour, and he could not help but want to cry.

It had not been easy. They had finally seen a human!
