Chapter 240 Caught a Big One
Woo——
Accompanied by the piercing sirens of Red Maple Island in the distance, every household in Witch Sea lit up their lights and looked up at the sky.
Tonight will be the brightest day in the Witch Sea, and also the darkest day in the Witch Sea.
Since the creation of the New Sun world, it has never escaped the shadow of natural disasters.
In the sky, the pale moon was gradually stained with a touch of bright red. The reddish light passed through the clouds and sprinkled on the silent sea. Along with the gentle sea breeze, the sky began to be covered by thick dark clouds, and the roar of the waves swept in from afar.
The wind brought the shadow... Chen Qi immediately lowered his head:
"Fin, come up quickly!!"
The area where Finn is currently located is too dimly lit.
The spiritual field of the Witch of Fen is enough to attract powerful monsters.
Accompanied by a breeze, bubbles gradually appeared on the seabed under Fen's feet, and like liquid solidifying, a twisted and dark monster emerged silently.
It was completely black, with a body like a bear, but a head like a deer. In the darkness, it had a pair of dark red eyes...
Shadow Bear Deer——
Chen Qi took out the Giant Killer Gun and without hesitation, shot Shadow Bear Deer in the head.
Accompanied by a strong wind, Shadow Bear Deer's head suddenly exploded.
"quick!"
Then Chen Qi walked to the side of the boat and pulled Fen out of the boat.
“Hoo, hoo, hoo…”
Fen gasped heavily and patted her chest. After resting for a long time, she was not yet fully in the fighting state.
Chen Qi commanded:
"Fen, from now on, you must never enter the sea easily without lights..."
"Um."
Fin nodded and looked back in horror at the creature that had just been behind her.
On the pure black body, the Shadow Bear Deer's head had been broken off, but black lines kept emerging from it, repairing itself at an astonishing speed.
In just a moment, the shadow bear deer whose head had been shot off regained half of its head and smiled at them.
One of the most powerful qualities of the Shadow Beast is its uncontrollable and powerful regenerative ability.
"nice one……"
After saying that, Chen Qi immediately aimed the Giant Killer Gun at Shadow Bear Deer and fired three shots in a row.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Shadow Bear Deer was exploded into slag, and its body turned into a ball of jelly-like shadow substance above the sea.
Creeping Shadows, Shadow Materials, are must-drop items from Shadow Monsters above level 2. They can be used to make Shadow equipment, practice materials for high-level Shadow skill cards, or thrown at others to reduce their sanity.
Once the creeping shadows see strong light, they will quickly rot and turn into useless smelly mud. They are good things that need special preservation.
This 2.0 version that came after Laughing Moon is a rare substance unique to the Witch Sea.
"Number One, take it back."
Chen Qi commanded No. 1 to store the creeping shadows into the ghost ship's warehouse.
Such skilled manipulation... Finn picked up her staff and assumed a fighting stance.
However, the moment she assumed a fighting stance, she was instantly startled.
I saw bubbles appearing continuously on the reddish sea surface as the sky changed.
Above the sky, dark clouds kept pressing down like waves!
Her spiritual perception was being blocked, and she was unable to detect any existence in the darkness.
Along with the hissing sound of the wind, in the darkness, pair after pair of bright red eyes opened in the darkness, like shadow beasts craving for food, looking hungrily at the ship lights!
"One, two, ten, thirty, one hundred..."
Finn counted as many shadow demons as possible, then she circled the entire sea and discovered that the ghost ship was surrounded by countless monsters hiding in the shadows, wanting to bite off their necks and tear their flesh.
Chen Qi patted Fen on the back:
"Fen, what's wrong? Are you scared?"
Finn gritted his teeth:
"No, Qi, I'm just surprised..."
"No, it's normal to be afraid. Now, when sailing in the Witch Sea, you must remain vigilant."
Chen Qi took out the daytime lantern from his backpack card, injected spiritual power into it, and lit it up.
As long as you keep the boat lights on high, you will not be attacked by shadow beasts.
Version 2.0 of Witch Sea has three major changes.
First, the Shadow Fiend will become a permanent creature on the sea, wandering the Witch Sea forever.
This is also a unique feature of the Witch Sea section.
As for why the arrival of Laughing Moon caused so many shadow demons to appear in the Witch Sea, it remains a mystery to this day.
Second, the number of distorted monsters will increase significantly, and the ancient monsters under the deep sea, as well as some ancient creatures, will also emerge above the sea surface.
Of course, the most important thing is the third point, including the Witch Trial Land, and a series of ancient B-level cracks are coming!
Although Class B cracks are only one level higher than Class C cracks, they are several times more destructive and difficult to deal with.
Its existence will cause permanent damage to the surrounding space and completely change the sea areas of thousands or even tens of thousands of meters.
This will result in the emergence of a large number of unknown dangerous waters above the Witch Sea, and even if you follow the safe route on the nautical chart, you will encounter great danger.
The internal space is full of dangers, and the survival rate of most Class B cracks is less than 10%.
But as a reward, the resources it possesses are beyond human imagination.
Steam Hand, Bonfire Energy, Magic Bullet Company, the foundation of the strength of these companies, and even the establishment of the companies, are closely related to the high-level rifts they control.
It is thanks to the Rift, Steam Hand, and Magic Bullet Company that they are able to create powerful weapons beyond imagination.
A B-level crack is enough to affect the direction of a war or the strength of a small country's weapons.
Therefore, after the arrival of the Laughing Moon, even the powerful countries around it were unable to retract their greedy fangs.
The Golden Bird Kingdom, the White Tower Federation, and even the distant Black Blood Empire, the Kingdom of Winter, will ignore the warnings of the Kingdom of Bei and send out powerful privateer hunting groups to go deep into the Witch Sea as predators, becoming a powerful third force besides the navy and pirate groups!
Under these three points, the difficulty of the route in the Witch Sea will suddenly change, increasing by at least ten times. Ordinary fishermen can only fish under the light of the lighthouse, and even the third-level extraordinary people cannot ensure their own safety without encountering pirates.
Chen Qi tried hard to use his inspiration to try to detect the current sea area.
However, he felt and saw a wall, an endless wall of waves, which kept coming in waves, blocking all his spiritual perceptions.
A huge feeling from nature weighed heavily on Chen Qi and Fen.
Unconsciously, I have also entered the 2.0 version of the Witch Sea... Chen Qi looked at the swarm of shadow beasts as dense as ants, hung the daytime lantern on the bow, and commanded:
"Number three! Go in this direction, full speed!"
Boom boom boom!
Will-O-Wisp mode! Activate!
Blue flames came out of the ghost ship, and the ship's lights were turned on to full brightness, heading towards the distant sea.
As a flower-sighted person, Fen has mastered some skills in detecting the weather:
"Qi, are you really going to the base of the Poseidon Pirates?"
"Yes, there are countless treasures, tentacles, and deep blue fire."
Chen Qi was extremely excited and without hesitation, he increased the boat's speed to its maximum:
"I'll go to Black Mine City and pick up my small houseboat, then I'll head to the Poseidon Pirates to look for high-level career cards."
…
…
On top of a tall building on Red Maple Island, everyone held lanterns and looked at the ghost ship that was moving further and further away.
"He's gone. As expected, it's still too dangerous for him to stay here."
The mad wolf Fenrir said, feeling an inexplicable sense of loss and powerlessness in his heart.
Veteran Gail drank a glass of strong wine:
"Fenrir, don't worry. I believe you will see his deeds in the newspaper soon!!"
“Old Gale, this is not that easy. The geniuses from the Royal University have already arrived in this sea area. In front of those geniuses, extraordinary people like me and Black Hunter are just mortals.
Those newspapers, then, will become the stage for those geniuses.”
Little Red Riding Hood smoothed her golden hair and laughed at herself.
Once those monsters from the Extraordinary University enter the scene, the geniuses of these pirate groups will be shattered.
Old Gale shook his head and laughed:
"That's not certain, Little Red Riding Hood! Maybe he will surpass you soon! And beat you to a pulp!"
I was beaten down? Little Red Riding Hood gritted her teeth and revealed her ferocious golden eyes:
"I will be beaten down by him! I am not an ordinary third-level being. Among the third-level beings, I am the strongest one..."
Little Red Riding Hood crossed her arms across her chest. She had seen Chen Qi's strength in the training room.
Although it is outstanding in the second level, it is still too weak in the third level.
What's more, in her eyes, all third-level transcendents are just toys.
Veteran General Gale blushed and drank the thing in one gulp:
"Haha, then give it a try, Little Red Riding Hood! Aren't you going out to sea soon? For the witch's relic, to heal our leader, Lady Blood!
You little guy, you are just Fenrir's sister, but you are surprisingly loyal! You are surprisingly passionate! If I were younger, I would definitely like your hot temper!"
You, you like me... Little Red Riding Hood gritted her teeth and had an urge to tear Gale into pieces.
But after hesitating for a long time, she finally squeezed out a simple sentence:
"After I leave, Fenrir, my brother, take good care of the Blood Lady for me!"
I leave it to you... Little Red Riding Hood felt a little reluctant.
Fenrir looked at Little Red Riding Hood's determined eyes and nodded seriously.
…
…
call--
In the early morning, a ray of sunlight shyly peeks out from the horizon, dyeing the sky a gentle orange-red.
As the saying goes, the early bird catches the worm, the early horse catches the grass, and the early water elf has the work to do!
Water elves No. 1, No. 3 and No. 4 had already taken rags and were carefully cleaning every corner of the ship.
Numbers five, six, and seven are responsible for cutting vegetables and processing ingredients.
"Yeah, yeah, except for number two who is watering the flowers, the other water elves are very serious..."
Chen Qi nodded with satisfaction.
The water elf is indeed a pet that is fully hand-drawn.
After Chen Qi finished his work as a ruthless supervisor, he found a reef on the sea and stopped the boat.
After several days of sailing, he and Finn were already in the territory of the Poseidon Pirates. In the distance, they could already see the towering statue of the Goddess of the Sea.
Chen Qi jumped off the boat and carved a star on the reef with a long knife:
“Fen, from now on, this is our contact point! If your radio can’t contact my ship, you come to this place and carve a flower.
If I can't reach you, carve a star right here."
"No problem! Kai!"
Finn dropped her sailing boat.
Next, Finn’s destination will be Blood Devil Island near the Poseidon Pirates’ base. She will go there to find the legendary Blood Devil’s Heart, which is the key to suppressing her blood flower disease!
"OK!"
Chen Qi did not hesitate to abandon his tattered little houseboat that he had not used for a long time.
His current strength is not as good as the best, but better than the worst.
He has many plans for his next course of action.
But it would be too abrupt to use a ghost ship to directly break into the territory of the Poseidon Pirates.
If you disguise yourself as a chef and use a small houseboat to enter the waters of the Poseidon Pirates, it will be more covert.
Of course, if you can blend in naturally, it would be a better choice.
As for the problem of guarding the ghost ship, Chen Qi also came up with a temporary plan, which was the Deep Sea Elf No. 3.
Chen Qi has already taught No. 3 all the techniques of sailing, including sending distress signals, starting the engine, and turning the boat around!
If a problem occurs, No. 3 will send a message to the machine in the small houseboat.
Now, the once timid No. 3 is considered an excellent captain of the ghost ship.
If Number Three is unable to do the job, he can simply hand it over to his first mate and pharmacist, Finn.
I'm currently stuck on the job transfer quest, so contacting the lighthouse keeper of the Poseidon Pirates is a top priority.
As long as we can kill a deformed lighthouse keeper, all problems will be solved!
The lighthouse keeper of the Poseidon Pirates is a position that oversees the security of the dock and the coming and going of ships.
Therefore, it is not difficult to find the lighthouse keeper.
The key is how to contact them. Every lighthouse keeper is strictly protected.
"Is it an assassination, or is it to find a way to replace the other party?"
Chen Qi thought to himself and fell into hesitation.
At this moment, the sea surface beneath his feet made an unusual sound!
Before he could react, a tentacle grabbed his leg.
"???"
Chen Qi blinked.
Tentacle grass, a special plant lurking on the seabed, will attack creatures that approach its territory.
Once you are entangled by it, your energy will be continuously absorbed! You will not be able to circulate your spiritual power for a short period of time!
This is a creature with extremely strong control capabilities. Once it is hit, its combat power will be greatly reduced!
"Fin!"
Chen Qi immediately reminded Fen Dao.
There are often more than ten ten-tentacle grasses!
He's been charged, Finn is next!
Once Finn is hit, both he and Finn will be seriously injured by the constantly whipping tentacles.
"I'll try my best!"
Fen reacted immediately, her spiritual perception was completely unable to sense the tentacle grass under her feet.
However, the tentacle grass was incredibly fast, and Finn was still a step slower.
thump!
These two slippery tentacles emerged from the water and stretched out their arms towards Fen's white and tender feet...
Then the tentacle suddenly stopped when it approached Fen's feet, then twisted and turned sharply.
The tentacles ignored Finn and rushed towards Chen Qi.
“…”
“…”
Why did you only catch me? Why didn't you catch the Flower Witch?
This is not right!
Chen Qi was startled suddenly. Three tentacle grasses grabbed his feet tightly, making him unable to extricate himself for a while.
What a powerful force! After Xiaoyue, the strength of these guys has reached a new level!
"This thing is troublesome..."
Chen Qi pulled his feet hard.
Logically speaking, with his perception, he shouldn't be unable to react to ordinary tentacle attacks...
etc……
Chen Qi was stunned and suddenly thought of a possibility.
This is a man-made trap!
The tentacle grass trap is a tactic that the Poseidon Pirates are proud of!
Legend has it that Carol, who had been famous for a long time, was also fooled by this trick and was even threatened by Pellew from the White Dove Newspaper by taking a photo of him.
"Hide! It's a trap!"
Chen Qi immediately gave the order.
"???"
When Fen heard this, he immediately jumped into the water and hid.
Soon, a huge warship, creating huge waves, arrived at the reef with great momentum.
At the bow, a pirate with the goddess of the sea engraved on the back of his clothes rubbed his hands with excitement.
"This tentacle! Thank Poseidon! We caught another big one!"
