Spirit summons? I want to do it myself!

Unlike the previous practice of selecting a location and then detecting whether there were any icethorn fish, now Lido was casting a wide net by detecting as she walked.

It's not that she was stingy with the mental energy spent on detection. Just to be on the safe side, Lido decided to stay away from the academy before catching the ice thorn fish, so there was no need to do this.

Now Liduo is using the mental scan all the way to avoid detours. Anyway, Liduo is already accustomed to using the mental scan, and the mental burden can be ignored.

Less than a thousand meters upstream, Lido discovered another group of ice spines, but she did not stop but continued to move forward.

Because there is only one adult ice stickleback in this group, and the others are all juveniles. Maybe the mother fish is looking for food with her own young fish?

For the sake of long-term strategy, Lido does not intend to catch all the icethorn fish in this section of the river, otherwise the mother fish and the small fish will not be caught.

Even if you only catch the mother fish and let the small fish go, it won’t work! Without the protection of the mother fish, it is estimated that only a few of these small fish will survive in the end.

So let's just let them go. Anyway, ice thorn fish usually live at the bottom of the water and rarely come out to hurt people. They are relatively harmless to humans. And they are so delicious, so we really need to protect the continuation of the species.

Lido continued to move upstream. The terrain was a bit steep at the sharp bend before, and Lido had a hard time dragging the sled.

As a result, after walking less than two kilometers, the river became flat again and it was much smoother to walk. The flow of the river here was also quite slow, so apart from the school of fish just now, Liduo did not find another ice spines fish along the way.

Unable to find the target she wanted to capture, Lido could only drag the sled and continue trudging through the snow.

Lido went upstream for nearly three kilometers before she discovered new icethorn fish. And there were not just one or two, but eight within Lido's two-kilometer detection range!

What's strange is that the terrain and water flow speed here do not match the environment that Lido thinks ice sticklebacks like. How come there are so many ice sticklebacks concentrated in this section of the river?

The river here is very wide, almost twice as wide as the narrowest part downstream, and the water is much deeper than elsewhere, as if a long, deep pit had been dug here.

Another thing is, aren't there too many other fish resources here? There is a school of fish every few dozen meters, and there are also giant fish several meters long that Liduo detected before.

But even so, the fish did not flee directly upstream or downstream along the river, but fled to the sides of the predator, that is, towards the river bank, as if they were unwilling to leave this area.

Moreover, the aquatic plants on the riverbed were very lush and much taller than elsewhere. There were many kinds of freshwater aquatic products you can imagine, which made Lido so embarrassed that tears were about to fall from the corners of her mouth.

In Lido's mental scan, in addition to the eight ice thorn fish, there were several aquatic monsters whose strength was at least comparable to that of the ice thorn fish.

There were two shrimps over one meter long, three fish that looked very much like blue sharks, all over two meters long, and two giant river clams that were over one meter in diameter.

There are even two oversized crabs whose energy intensity is even greater than that of the ice stickleback fish. Their back shells are larger than giant river clams, and their two huge claws are so powerful that they can make people feel cold at first sight!

The one with the highest energy intensity was a small fish only about twenty centimeters long with purple-red dorsal spines.

If Lido's mental scan hadn't covered the entire river, Lido would have almost missed it as an ordinary small fish.

You can’t judge a fish by its appearance!

Fortunately, Liduo had read "Detailed Explanation of Mainland Magical Beasts" before, so she was not unable to name these magic beasts. Of course, there are exceptions, and the two giant river clams were not included in the record.

Maybe they were too rare or their habitat was too hidden to be discovered, or maybe they were new variants. In short, Lido knew nothing about them.

Those two shrimps were called swift-killing shrimps, primary magical beasts, and the largest individual on record was more than two meters long.

The reason why it is called the swift-cutting shrimp is because one side of the two claws of this shrimp is very sharp, and can be swung alternately and quickly to cut, which can cause huge damage and even cut through 20 cm thick stainless steel.

In contrast, the meat of the quick-cut shrimp is very delicious and firm, sweet and tasty, and very nutritious.

The two claws of the swift-chopping shrimp, the tendon on its back, and the magic core are all excellent materials for making basic magic equipment.

The three fish that look like blue sharks are called water bomb sharks, primary magical beasts, because they can spit out water bombs with extremely strong impact force from their mouths.

Well, the naming rules of Magic Continent are the same as those of Lido, which is to be concise, clear and unpretentious.

In addition to the meat of the water bomb shark, its skin, teeth, bones and swim bladder can be used to make underwater equipment and weapons. Of course, the meat quality is a little worse in Warcraft, but it is still delicious.

Those two giant crabs are called giant claw crabs, primary magical beasts, and they don’t have any magical skills, but those two huge claws themselves are powerful weapons.

Because they have no magical skills, all the energy they take in is converted into their own nutrients and used to strengthen their own shells and their pair of large pincers.

Giant crabs never shed their shells throughout their lives. Their shells and claws grow with their bodies, so their shells and claws are very hard.

Although it is only a primary monster, the hardness of its shell and pincers is stronger than that of many intermediate monsters! Therefore, it is considered a kind of top-grade defense equipment material.

In addition, the meat and roe of the giant crab are both excellent nourishing ingredients, and their deliciousness and nourishing effects are the best among all primary monsters!

But the giant crab is difficult to catch. People discovered this monster by various accidents.

The fishing industry on the Magic Continent is still in a relatively old and backward stage, and it is impossible to dive underwater to catch such a huge fish. No fishing net can withstand the tearing of a pair of huge claws!

As for entering the ocean, that's even more impossible! The ocean is a forbidden place for humans in the magic continent!

The last small fish with purple-red dorsal spines is called the poisonous stingray. As the name suggests, it is highly poisonous and can attack with poisonous stings.

It is small in size, has a highly toxic body, and has a poisonous stinger for attack, so it has no natural enemies at all.

It is a mutant of the puffer fish, so the chance of it appearing is low.

Since its meat cannot be eaten, the only use of it is the magic core. Of course, some people also collect its toxins to refine weapons to harm others or directly poison them.

But in fact, the poisonous stingray can be regarded as a mid-level magical beast, so few people try to catch it, and they may die if they try.

Although its toxin is indeed very powerful and can easily kill ordinary monsters, the amount is too small and meaningless. It is only the old pervert mentioned above who will favor it.

By comparison, among all the types of magical beasts that Lido has discovered in the Huashi River, the icethorn fish is actually one of the easiest prey to capture!

It is light in weight. Except for the poisonous stinging porpoise, all other magical beasts are heavier than it. The ice spikes it fires can hardly hurt the spider silk rope, and the firing distance is not far enough, so it cannot hurt Lido.

And apart from the firm, plump and nourishing meat, there is not much else that can be used for it.

Excluding magic cores, only teeth and bones can be used, and blacksmiths usually look down on them.

There is no way. Although the scales of ice stickleback are very hard, they are too thin and small! It is very inconvenient to process them or there is no value in processing them.

Although teeth and bones are relatively sharp and hard, their strength is average. No wonder blacksmiths look down on them.

As for the pair of giant river clams that were not recorded in "Detailed Explanation of Continental Magical Beasts", their appearance is pleasing to the eye.

The amber shells have light blue stripes, which make them much more beautiful than ordinary black or brown clams!

As for what means of attack they had or what they could be used for, Lido had no idea. But that didn't stop her from wanting to take them back just for the beautiful shells.

There are so many magical beasts and ordinary fish gathered in this section of the river. In addition, Lido discovered through her mental perception that the water magic elements are very abundant. I think this is what attracted them here.

This can't be explained by the magic of nature! There must be something strange here!
