Chapter 175 This Crack is About to Explode

Near the edge of the sea, Storm Gorge, night.

Under the slightly reddish moon, the wind was howling, the thunder was roaring, and the waves were surging.

Chen Qi stood at the control panel in the captain's room, carefully steering the ship through the extremely dark Storm Gorge.

"The precursor to the Laughing Moon period..."

Chen Qi raised his head and looked through the glass.

The moon in the sky seemed to be stained with blood, hanging in the sky, making the sea surface slightly red.

The shaky boat, like a lonely fallen leaf, struggled forward under the raging waves.

At this moment, a knight in a triangular helmet came up behind him and tapped him on the back with his iron hand with needles:

"Captain, how long is it to our destination?"

"Two hours. Also, don't get close to my back..."

Chen Qi felt an unprecedented spicy sensation on his back.

According to the little crow, he would ascend to heaven in about an hour.

However, last night, he felt like he had ascended to heaven.

Chen Qi carefully recalled his vague memories of last night.

The little crow made him lie on the bed under the pretext of helping him to check his body. He then calmly took a bunch of hemostats and some jars and performed a thorough examination from inside to outside, as well as some minor surgeries.

Logically speaking, after many days of practice, he has been able to endure the pain, even if a steel needle is inserted directly into his armpit, he can grit his teeth and endure it.

The difference between slaughter and surgery is precision.

What happened last night was more of a slaughter than an operation! Um... the kind of slaughter you would do for a pig!

Last night, Chen Qi only remembered that Little Crow applied some strange medicine on his back, and then the pain in his body increased significantly, and then he suddenly felt something happen.

Cupping, hammering, everything...

Later, the little crow became more and more excited, and even rode on top to carry out some terrifying inspections like a blacksmith!

The pain in my thighs, back, and arms hasn't ended yet.

Chen Qi turned around, looked at the little crow standing in the corner, and glared at it.

The little crow spread his hands helplessly, raised his eyebrows, and smiled evilly, as if to say:

As a patient, all you have to do is lie in bed, but as a doctor, I have a lot to consider.

Did she play a trick on me? Chen Qi stretched his muscles.

The little crow is indeed a professional unlicensed doctor, and he is really ruthless.

Now that he came to his senses, the little crow, who was a fan of the deep sea, inexplicably wanted him to lie down, perhaps he just simply wanted to take a look at the sea beast pattern on his back.

Got ripped off… Chen Qi concluded.

But you know what, this test seems to be really effective!

After the operation, he felt much better.

Although it hurts, it's like tearing off a scar from my body, or like a massage. I have an inexplicable urge to do it again...

But now is not the time to discuss these things, and there is no chance to do it again... Chen Qi turned around and placed his hand on the rudder:

"In one hour, everyone, we will reach the marked point on the map, but the storm in this place is very strong, and there is a high probability of encountering sea monsters."

The white cloak is attached to the glass:

"Little Captain, you just need to keep going. I will take care of everything for you."

The man in white cloak smiled indifferently. The huge storm in front of him was like fine drizzle in his eyes.

"OK."

Chen Qi pulled down the railing and increased the boat's speed to maximum.

He activated his spiritual perception to the maximum and hid the Touch of the Remnant Fire in his sleeves so that he could deploy it at any time.

A drifting bottle fished out of the sea by a deep sea elf.

Among them, the information about Little Crow, Siren and White Cloak is told.

The resume of this white cloak is even more amazing than his. He is in the Void Blade Phase, a veteran among the cadres of the Poseidon Pirates, has mastered the solution, and is only one step away from becoming one of the Four Apostles of the Poseidon Pirates.

In the early years, the juvenile form of the Black Ship Sea Dragon, the overlord of the near sea, was hunted.

At the same time, he has the experience of clearing thirty-one D-level cracks and three C-level cracks.

And in the C-level rift 'Lightless Night', a legendary relic, the Sun Lantern, was obtained. This lantern can disperse many monsters, especially shadow monsters.

Moreover, the most important thing is that he has mastered a virtual liberation move.

Since he majored in the Void, he is not very famous, but his strength, compared with the near-shore ones, is definitely one of the best fish-frying bosses.

According to Little Crow's estimation, White Cloak could defeat five or even more Black-Eyed Captains alone!

Chen Qi wasn't quite sure how strong Captain Black Eye was, but he estimated that with his current strength, even if he activated the Touch of Remnant Fire, he might be able to fight a Black Eye Captain to a draw.

An extremely troublesome old guy...Chen Qi stretched his fighting spirit to the utmost.

This old guy might attack him the moment the ship reaches the entrance of the crack!

The white cloak patted Chen Qi's shoulder:

"My child, you have worked so hard. After our mission is over, I will apply to the higher-ups to let you join our deep-sea pirate group and bathe in the holy water of the goddess of the sea."

The little crow glanced at the watch and said coldly:

“White Cloak, don’t forget the purpose of our operation. We, the Black Whale Group, provide the materials, and you must complete the ritual. At the same time, everything obtained from the rift must be divided equally between us.

If there are any items related to deep sea hunters or witches in this rift, the ownership will be discussed by Aunt. "

White Cloak said softly:

"It's too early to talk about the profit sharing now, Doctor Crow. Didn't Auntie tell you that we should wait until the rift is over before discussing the profit sharing?"

The little crow was silent. In terms of seniority, she was just a newly promoted cadre.

“…”

White Cloak walked to Chen Qi's side and looked at the sea in the distance:

"Young man, whether we can return alive from this trip to the rift is still unknown. Let's talk about everything after it's over."

boom!

Suddenly, a huge thunder resounded through the sky, lighting up the sky!

The boat swung violently!

“Damn it…”

Chen Qi tried hard to stand firm.

As a forbidden place, if he hadn't upgraded the boat, the durability of the small houseboat would have collapsed in an instant.

At this moment, accompanied by a huge thunder, he felt a strong extraordinary aura!

But the next second, something unexpected happened.

As the ship continued to move forward, the entire sky began to fade away like black ink.

White Cloak couldn't help laughing wildly:

"Finally, finally, we're here!"

Amid the roar of the storm, a special prompt popped up in front of Chen Qi's eyes.

[You have reached the edge of the crack! ]

[Inspiration is being evaluated...]

[Identification successful! (Get a small amount of information)]

[Crack name: Lost Sea Light Island

Level: C

Appearance: lamp, flower

Crack distortion: 87% (extremely high distortion, collapse in just a moment!)

Crack level restriction: Only second- and third-level extraordinary people can enter this crack.

The number of people allowed in the rift is limited to fifteen.

Description: More than four hundred years ago, this was a peaceful village with a rich crack, producing lighting objects called sea lanterns, which were once the best-selling ship lanterns on this sea.

Bonfire Energy Company also noticed this and went to Haideng Island to try to absorb this technology.

However, when they set out, famine and madness had already swept the village due to the flickering daylight.

The entire Haideng Island is about to be destroyed. In order to survive and for food, the villagers begin to crave for more ancient shelters, trying to summon the most proud creation of beauty of the legendary goddess of the sea.

And you, as a survey ship, sail through the storm on the sea, ready to stop all this before the ceremony!

Clearance condition: Survive until the event is over. (Once you arrive at Haideng Island, the entire sea will be surrounded by a whirlpool before the event is over)

Special clearance conditions: Stop the crazy villagers' ritual.

Inspiration: On the top of those mountains, you see the wings bursting from the mountains, emerging from the cocoon into a butterfly, coming towards you. 】

Bang!

The White Cloak felt the buzzing in his head and slammed his hand on the operating table:

"Sea Lantern Island! The island where the legendary Crow Witch was born, the place where the Ice Witch trained, the place where the legendary investigators fought their first battle, and the place where the deep-sea hunters were wounded! The place where the Sea Lantern Fox descended, and the place where the embers were discovered!"

Finally, finally... White Cloak said excitedly as if he had seen tons of gold:

"Little Captain! Go forward, keep going forward! Keep going forward despite the storm!!"

At this moment, in stark contrast to the White Cloak's excitement, was the indifferent expression on the face of the little crow.

She looked at the crack hint in front of her and bit her nails unconsciously.

Until they arrived at the rift, they had not encountered the navy, the Beiguo Meteorological Bureau, or the Black Hunters.

She had clearly informed the navy of today's operations, but the navy still did not appear on their route!

What the hell is the Navy doing? Why didn't they respond to my message?

If this crack were to deform, the entire coastal archipelago would be reduced to ashes, and at least more than 10,000 people would die.

With a bang...the little crow bit the nail of its little finger.

Chen Qi looked at the inspiration and was slightly excited.

What’s going on!

87% distortion! ?

I’m afraid this crack will explode in the next second?

Chen Qi tried hard to suppress the excitement in his heart.

Generally speaking, the difficulty of a crack is composed of many aspects.

But there is no doubt that in addition to the order, crack distortion is the most important criterion.

An 87% distortion degree means that a crack is about to undergo a drastic change.

High distortion usually has two results, the first is upgrade, the second is collapse.

To put it simply, collapse means that cracks have appeared in the world, turning the land into irreversible ruins.

Now, outside the New Sun World is a world made up of countless bad soils.

And the 87% distortion degree means that it only takes a little time and a little opportunity for the crack to collapse quickly and appear in the world.

In the eyes of many people, C-level cracks are already extremely terrifying cracks.

If the C-level cracks are not dealt with, it may even lead to complete disaster in the area of ​​100 miles, turning it into a land of disaster where "human beings" can never survive.

It can even be said that the moment they enter the crack, the crack may be distorted.

But the moment the crack collapses, they will face countless monsters.

And if there is no collapse, the rift upgrading would be a very terrifying thing.

Once it is deformed into a B-level crack, even a third-level extraordinary person may die instantly in front of a B-level crack in just a breath.

This also means that he, a second-level transcendent, may appear in a B-level crack with a minimum threshold of the third level!

No matter which result it is, it is not good news...

Unless they can enter the crack at the fastest speed and suppress the deformation of the crack.

The first time I entered a C-level crack, I encountered such an explosive distortion rate!

As they entered the crack, the sky gradually turned into a dusty sunny day, and a dead silent island appeared before them.

"My first C-rank rift experience, it was so brutal."

Chen Qi subconsciously grasped the remaining fire under his clothes.

This is the first time for him, as an assassin, to enter a C-level crack!

As they got closer to the island, the prompt popped up in front of his eyes again.

[You have arrived at the crack of Haideng Island. ]

[We are assigning you a random identity based on your gender. 】

[You are a brave and righteous investigator and corporate professional of Bonfire Energy Company. ]

[Because you are a Bonfire Company employee, the villagers are eager to feed you to sharks, and their hatred towards you is +100! You are more likely to be besieged by monsters! ]

[Your clearance reward +20%]

[You get a special clearance condition: find the design of the special item Sea Lantern (complete this task to get a very mysterious reward)]

【Note: The more successful you are at playing, the higher the score you will get. 】

Villager hatred +100?

Chen Qi frowned slightly.

It is not easy for him, a second-level transcendent, to challenge the difficult level. Now, he is also given an identity with a full hatred value.

But it doesn't matter.

In the Witch Sea where random events are everywhere, he will encounter cracks of this level sooner or later.

Chen Qi turned his head and looked at Little Crow, White Cloak, and the other extraordinary people in triangular helmets.

From the current point of view, this crack has characters, and some characters will gain special enlightenment.

Although it is not a copy of Werewolf, some key characters should be able to gain enlightenment far beyond others.

Moreover, with his inspiration, he did not receive any special inspiration or enlightenment.

The difficulty of clearing the C-level rift was more troublesome than he had imagined.

Chen Qi looked out the window.

In the distance, there is an extremely huge and desolate island. The entire island is devoid of any breath and is filled with dry and dead trees.

In the middle of the island is a huge mountain, on which are carved countless runes.

The shape of the entire mountain range is like a spreading biological fossil, as if a giant sky-devouring beast will descend in the next moment and destroy all the living things they see!

Chen Qi was the first to say:

"Hey guys, how do you want to clear the game? My character has some special missions."

There is no doubt that these people will never take the normal route to clear customs.

At this moment, the little crow said:

“We have one goal, and that is to go to the center of the village, change the destination of the ceremony, and replace them as the new ritual masters.

I am a doctor, so I will not be attacked by the villagers. I can move freely on this island with my medical skills, but I will probably be monitored. Therefore, my idea is to analyze the intelligence of each other first..."

The White Cloak raised his left hand and snapped his fingers. A dark shadow appeared faintly on his body:

"No! We don't have time! Doctor Crow! 87% distortion means the villagers are about to hold a ceremony. We only have one choice, and that is to bare our fangs and wash them with blood. We need to use blood to complete our ceremony."

"A bloodbath?"

The corner of the little crow's mouth twitched.

Are you kidding?

This is a C-level crack! It's a C-level crack that is about to explode!

If a bloodbath were to take place, both she and Chen Qi would likely become cannon fodder!

"No, we need to be more cautious. The distortion is 87%. In fact, the higher the distortion, the harder it is to increase the distortion!"

Crack distortion degree...Chen Qi lowered his head and thought.

Little Crow is right. Once the distortion is too high, something big must happen to increase the distortion of the crack.

"The distortion level won't increase that easily, which means we still have time to make a plan!"

The little crow denied it again with a serious look, saying that she needed to buy time for the navy, Chen Qi, and her actions.

And at this moment, suddenly, the huge mountain range in the distance moved.

In the sound of everyone's illusion, in the distance, the huge mountain range seemed to twitch suddenly and shifted for a moment!

Layers of waves are coming towards you!

Silent ancient whispers echo across the sea!

Everyone covered their ears as they listened to the whispers that struck their souls.

Everyone saw the special prompt.

[Because 'it' senses a special existence, the crack distortion degree is +3%, and the current distortion degree is 90%! ]

The little crow raised her head dully and pinched her mouth.

"????"

I have combined the two chapters into one. Thanks to everyone for subscribing. Sorry for the late update. I was stuck in a serious writer's block. I started writing at 3pm and it's only now that I've finished. I have to rework the outline X﹏X
