Chapter 357 Tentacle Witch

Buy a boat? Buy a boat?

The soft whispers, like the sound of a bell, echoed in the dark sea.

In the darkness, the surrounding scenery began to change. The sea water turned from deep blue to dark gray-blue, and a biting cold completely overwhelmed their Ghost!

"Buy a boat..."

The little crow repeated silently, and tiny ice crystals instantly appeared on her arms.

With the appearance of monsters in the distance, the temperature around them dropped drastically, and even the ice crystals condensed in the air could be felt with every breath!

Memories of the disaster emerged in the little crow's mind.

She immediately thought of the legend of the Witch Sea - the Deep Sea Merchants!

A deformed humanoid monster that walks in the darkness!

In the era when the rift tide has not arrived, it can be said to be the nightmare of countless businessmen and fishermen!

Of course, the ghost monster in front of them is far stronger than the deep-sea merchants!

After the little crow helped the seriously ill Fen back to health, he said softly:

"Ghost merchants are mysterious natural disasters walking on the sea. They feed on soul currency. In the Sea Coffin, even famous heroes are just the currency they trade with..."

The little crow lowered its head.

I saw that in the boat full of flowers, there were white skeletons, and in the hands of the skeletons were precious treasures!

The Fire Serpent Long Sword of the Black Blood Empire, the Red Dragon Aphrodisiac of the Golden Bird Kingdom, the Great Magician's Book of the White Tower Federation...

Just from the faint extraordinary aura emanating from these corpses, one can tell that every dead person on this ship was originally a fourth-level extraordinary being!

This also meant that the 'girl' before them was a terrifying monster that was capable of destroying their entire ship!

Damn it, I always get into trouble... The little crow raised his head and whispered:

“Run…”

Before she could finish her words, something sticky wrapped around her feet.

"Guest, would you like to buy a boat?"

A slippery ghost tentacle wrapped directly around the little crow's waist, and then coiled around her neck like a snake.

The little crow turned its head in fear.

She saw a gentle girl with tentacle hair and thin long clothes coming to her side and putting her fanged mouth close to her ear.

A faint fragrance, mixed with the scent of sea breeze... The little crow clenched his teeth.

Judging from the appearance alone, the monster in front of him even looks a bit like a witch.

In the Coffin of the Sea, in order to lure humans into the trap, deep-sea merchants will imitate the voices and appearances that humans like!

But there is no doubt that no matter how beautiful the monster in front of you is, it cannot hide its monster nature!

The tentacle monster blew a breath into the little crow's ear and asked again:

"Buying a boat?"

The little crow was silent for three seconds, then said honestly:

“No.”

“…”

The moment the words fell, the tiny crack on the opponent's chest slowly opened into a huge worm's mouth, and fiercely bit the little crow's arm!

"Bring us the best ship!"

A firm voice broke the silence in the air.

At some point, Chen Qi was already standing behind the little crow.

After saying that, he pulled the tentacle merchant, along with those ghost tentacles, away from the little crow's body as if he was picking up a naughty cat.

Finally, I met a big shot of the adventure level, although he is not a safe person... Chen Qi held the petite being in his hand, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The Tentacle Merchant, because she looks very much like the Ice Witch, is called the Gluttony Witch by players. The Tentacle Witch is the most dangerous deep-sea merchant in the Sea Coffin.

Although it is only 1.5 meters tall, its strength is enough to rival the deep-sea Titan. Once it goes crazy, it will be a mud truck that destroys everything in the ocean!

In the future, this monster will come out from the cracks in the Sea Coffin and arrive in the real world, bringing a little bit of gluttony shock to the many warships in the Witch Sea!

However, although this monster is extremely dangerous, it is very popular in the forum because of its good looks and its preference for tying people up with its tentacles.

Its popularity is extremely high, even surpassing the Book Sage in the Tower of Books.

There are even many players who go to the Witch Sea to provoke the Tentacle Merchant in order to be tied up by the Tentacle Merchant.

An extremely dangerous monster, but not impossible to trade and use.

Like the Deep Sea Merchant, this monster is afraid of light.

Chen Qi recalled the specific details of the monster in his hand.

As an adventure of the A-level crack, it has many good things that are extremely difficult to buy in the real world.

Whether it is a fourth-level career card, a field skill card, or a warship beyond imagination.

However, you must pay attention to safety when purchasing... Chen Qi looked at the monster in his hand vigilantly.

In the rift, many high-level monsters must maintain their sexual standards.

The essence of the Tentacle Merchant is a Shell Monster that has digested a special occupation card. It will instinctively follow the Shell Code of the 'Merchant' and will not easily attack travelers by robbery.

One thing for another, this is the iron rule that tentacle merchants need to follow.

But the tentacle merchant will continue to tempt 'guests' to buy its goods.

Once the guest is unable to pay the corresponding amount of money, it will use the 'guest's life' to pay the debt!

Crunch! Crunch!

"Guest, do you want to buy the best boat~"

The moment Chen Qi finished speaking, the tentacle merchant in his hand twisted his slender neck and opened his mouth full of tiny fangs.

The two rows of fangs instantly destroyed her beauty.

But despite this, Chen Qi instinctively developed a sense of pity and a strange desire to protect.

It’s the charm of the siren… Chen Qi’s face flushed, but he remained calm.

His mental resistance is so high that he can easily resist charm skills!

The tentacle merchant shook his tentacle hair happily, with an extremely dangerous light flashing in his eyes.

Just now, the human in front of it agreed to buy its things!

This look was a hostile look, and the deep-sea affinity was ineffective... Chen Qi was secretly shocked.

In other words, this deep-sea monster, like the deep-sea merchants, is essentially a human who has fallen into madness and worships some ancient existence...

Moreover, like the Deep-Sea Merchant, he seems to be immune to his deep-sea affinity!

Chen Qi did not object and agreed:

"Yes, my boat needs to be modified. I need a new engine. If possible, I am also going to buy some new things..."

Since the Dragon Tamer War, his ship's will-o'-the-wisp engine has been badly damaged.

Ordinary engines are simply unable to support the huge amount of energy required for a space jump.

Chen Qi vaguely remembered that in addition to the fourth-level Shellfish professional card from the Sea Merchant, all kinds of legendary engines and domain knowledge hidden in the world could be purchased from the Tentacle Merchant.

Among them, there may be knowledge that can help break through the bottleneck of Rift Slash.

Chen Qi added:

"I have quite a bit of 'currency', so I can buy things."

Money! Money! Money! The little tentacle merchant twisted wildly in Chen Qi's hand like a small fish, and then said excitedly:

"The boat is at my house. I'll take you to my shop!"

After saying this, it broke free with a whoosh, jumped onto its own boat and hoisted the sail.

Then it took out a finger-shaped whistle and blew it.

Boom! Boom!

A huge sea breeze blew, and the waves began to surge, pushing the ship forward.

Whistles that control wind and waves are all great things... Chen Qi was particularly moved.

Countless small boats loaded with flowers beside the tentacle merchant were sailing on the dark sea with the sea breeze.

Chen Qi turned the boat and followed the tentacle merchant.

At this moment, the little crow came back to his senses from his panic.

The little crow stood up, bit his index finger, and asked:

"Qi, are we already dead...?"

Just now, Chen Qi has agreed to the request to "buy the ship". If he cannot pay the price, he will be taken away by the tentacle merchant and sacrificed to the ancient god of the deep sea!

The price of purchasing the ship is an unspeakable amount of money!

In the cracks, the monsters don't believe in 'shell money', they only believe in 'supernatural currency'.

In her hazy memory, the experience of the Disaster Messenger told her that unless one possessed the strength of a fifth-order saint, or was a legendary Beixiang merchant, it would be possible to complete this transaction!

However, faced with the tentacle merchant, the little crow racked his brains but could not think of any other solution.

If they refuse, this monster will destroy their ship without hesitation!

Given the current state of the ship, both she and the Flower Witch would die tragically in this cold sea!

Perhaps, Chen Qi, who is good at naval battles, still has a chance of survival.

Qi agreed to the tentacle merchant's request for our sake.

For us... The little crow held the lantern in his hand, feeling inexplicably guilty.

The help Chen Qi provides her now far exceeds the help she gave Chen Qi in the past.

Little Crow's principle is to never owe others anything, however, with her current strength, she can't imagine how she can repay this kindness.

To pledge one's body to another... No, is a third-order transcendent really valuable in the eyes of a legend... The little crow bit his lip and shook his head.

Her eyes seemed to have returned to the afternoon when she failed to be admitted to the Golden Flower and Bird Kingdom Medical School.

Are we dead? Chen Qi looked at the little crow in confusion.

Chen Qi patted her shoulder and said:

"It's fine."

The little crow blushed and whispered:

"That tentacle monster is looking at you like a hungry beast. It will definitely eat you."

Hmm? The way you look at me?

Chen Qi turned around and looked at the ship in the fog.

In the hazy fog, the tentacle merchant stared at him motionlessly, his tentacles twisted and he was gasping for breath!

In the forum, the tentacle merchants like to take human lives and sacrifice them to the evil god of the Sea Coffin in exchange for food.

Therefore, in its eyes, humans are equal to food.

However, isn’t this look a little too hungry?

For a moment, Chen Qi couldn't guess the purpose of the 'Tentacle Merchant'.

As long as you have money, you won’t be attacked... Chen Qi touched his chin.

Although he doesn't have much extraordinary currency now, he has many skills in making money.

Moreover, with the help of the daytime lantern, even if the tentacle merchant directly attacked him, although he could not defeat the opponent, he was able to protect himself.

However, Finn and the little crow are in trouble.

I hope nothing serious will happen... Chen Qi held the lantern and prayed silently in his heart.

After a moment, the tentacle merchant turned around, and the slippery tentacles hugged his body tightly!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Its face was flushed, its heart was beating wildly, and it couldn't help but gasp for breath.

The hunter just now was obviously just a small fry in terms of strength, but his spirituality exuded a special smell that made it feel a strange feeling!

As a deformed being who has been in contact with the deep sea for a long time, selling things in the Merchant's Coffin, and has lost his human nature, it has not experienced this kind of joy for a long time!

This is the first time it has seen such a 'fragrant' fish! It is also the first time since it was born!

It can feel an unprecedented desire in Chen Qi!

Excitement, joy, hunger, appetite!

This feeling is indescribable, just like a hungry man being seduced by the dancer of the Golden Flower and Bird Kingdom!

If it weren't for the extraordinary 'Bei Code', it would have tied up Chen Qi in the first place!

However, as a special existence, it must abide by the Code of Shells!

No, no, you can’t just take action directly!

The tentacle merchant bit his tentacle and whispered excitedly:

"I will definitely buy him and let him stay with me in the Deep Sea Coffin to do business forever..."

"Eternity that even a witch cannot stop..."

"forever……"

…

After two days of sailing.

In the biting cold wind, Chen Qi's ship followed the many small merchant ships of the Tentacle Witch and moved forward all the way.

The closer we get to the witch's coffin, the thicker the fog becomes, and the colder it becomes.

According to legend, the essence of the Witch's Coffin is an extremely cold place where time passes very slowly.

It is said that as long as you lie in the coffin there, time will never pass.

Youth is eternal and time stands still.

This kind of 'still time' can even deceive the god of death in the world and save oneself from being hunted by him.

Therefore, in order to hibernate, countless nobles and adventurers traveled thousands of miles in a frantic search for the Sea Coffin.

I wonder how many adventurers we’ll see after we leave this crack... Chen Qi thought to himself.

The Coffin of the Sea is the highest A-level crack in the early stage of the Witch Sea, and is also one of the fuses of the war between countries.

Chen Qi looked forward.

A huge icy fog covered everything. The daylight seemed to have disappeared, and the whole world was shrouded in endless cold.

Chen Qi turned around and looked at the weak Fen.

Finn's condition was getting worse.

Finn sat by the campfire, holding Water Elf No. 2, feeling extremely weak.

On the first day, Fen was able to have a normal conversation and tell them some interesting stories about the Golden Flower Bird Kingdom.

The next day, Fen was like an ice sculpture and didn't speak for a long time.

The little crow, as a drug test subject, avoided any major problems thanks to the injection of dangerous self-igniting agents.

"How long will it take? Little tentacle witch..."

Chen Qi shouted loudly.

Bang!

In the fog, the tentacle merchant snapped his fingers:

"Already here, guest!"

With the sound of crisp finger snaps, a tall tower lit up in the thick fog.

The wind blew gently through his hair. Chen Qi raised his head and looked at the magnificent scene in front of him in disbelief.

Before his eyes was an abandoned port city forgotten by time. It stood alone between the sea and the fog, and in the center was a 500-meter-high tower.

Under the tower are a variety of shops.

Even if you are in a deserted crevice, it is difficult to conceal the former prosperity of this city.

However, this prosperous city no longer has any 'residents'. Instead, there are countless monsters like the tentacle merchants and countless deep-sea monsters swimming in the ocean!

The statue of the goddess of the sea also turned into a statue of an evil god wearing a long robe and with countless eyes.

"A place of adventure..."

Chen Qi was extremely emotional, looking at the many ships at the port.

Suddenly, he felt a strong gaze.

In the distance, a huge black sailing ship was emitting an ominous aura.

Who is it? Chen Qi looked in the direction of his gaze.

Above the window of the ominous black ship, a pair of eyes as hot as a lion were looking down at him and Fen on the boat.

Chen Qi raised his head, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He saw someone familiar, a hot woman with long red hair and a captain's hat.

The dead soul that was once buried in the sea by him and Finn, Little Crow's immediate boss, Aunt Carol, was looking at him.
