Chapter 622: Mobile Phone? Telephone?
The communication capability of the spatial realm has always been a significant issue. Only Zhao Hai finds it most convenient. For Laura and the others, once they leave the space, Zhao Hai can only locate them through the space and then inform them by appearing behind them or having Cai'er relay the message. However, Cai'er can only deliver so many messages, making this mode of communication quite inconvenient.
Now that they have the message fish, the situation has changed. Once the message fish enters the space, it is enhanced by the spatial realm. Since the space itself is a product of Earth, the enhancement of these message fish focuses on message transmission. These fish can now speak!
This doesn’t mean the fish can talk independently, but rather they can relay messages. As these fish are produced by the space, if one message fish is placed in the space while others are distributed among individuals, Zhao Hai and the others can speak to the message fish, which will then transmit the words to another person through the space.
When Zhao Hai first heard about this function, he was stunned. In essence, the space has taken on the role of a communication satellite, and these message fish are equivalent to mobile phones.
Although the message fish cannot leave the water, which is a drawback, this is hardly an issue for Zhao Hai. He can manifest several spatial bags within the space and take out some small glass bottles. As long as he fills the bottles with water and places them in the spatial bags, it’s manageable.
The message fish are not very large, and they are quite beautiful, making them suitable as ornamental fish. Even if they are not placed in spatial bags, having them in a room would serve the same purpose, merely transforming from mobile phones to landlines.
This function delighted not only Zhao Hai but also Laura and the others. They immediately had Cai'er breed these message fish in large quantities within the space and prepared to give one to Kun Zheng, Galen, and everyone else, making future communications much more convenient.
Zhao Hai and the others never expected that their trip to the sea tribe would yield such significant rewards. This was truly important for them; from now on, no matter what happened to the budah family, Zhao Hai could almost know about it at the first moment.
While Zhao Hai was dealing with the message fish, Luo Ying and her team weren’t idle either. The opposing side did indeed take action, launching their second attack just two hours after the first one.
This time, the attack was completely different from the first cone-shaped assault. They advanced in a flat formation, appearing ready for a major battle. Zhao Hai and Laura were still seated in the azure dragon conch, observing the water curtain.
Luo Ying’s table was also adorned with several message fish, all housed in beautiful glass fish tanks, with each fish designated for relaying messages to different individuals. However, compared to the enhanced message fish from the spatial realm, these were significantly inferior.
Zhao Hai had lost interest in those message fish; he was completely focused on the slowly advancing enemy. Their speed wasn’t very fast, and their formation was remarkably intact. Their formation resembled theirs, almost in a cubic shape like a magic cube.
The leading races consisted of some electric eel tribe members and others proficient in long-range attacks from the sea tribe, indicating that this time, they were genuinely preparing for a large-scale offensive.
Luo Ying was also observing the enemy's formation while casting spells to issue a series of commands to the message fish.
Of course, Luo Ying wasn’t using magic to communicate directly with the message fish. She dictated the commands, which other mermaid warriors then transmitted via magic through the message fish.
As the enemy advanced, the troops on the defensive line also began adjusting their formation. Some of the more defensively robust races that weren’t afraid of the electric eel tribe’s attacks gradually moved to the front of the formation, while others with stronger offensive capabilities fell back behind them.
