Chapter 259 The Real Monster
Want to do a vote?
The seven White Tower hunters looked at Chen Qi in confusion.
"This, this, this is not right..."
The glasses hunter Airol adjusted his glasses again.
Just now, they were still discussing how to trick Chen Qi and bring him into their team.
But now, Chen Qi was like a big pirate covered in gold and silver, pulling them into his team.
Why do these people look so stupid... Chen Qi couldn't help but doubt their professional qualities as White Tower hunters.
Chen Qi took a step forward, gently brushed his hand across the sea chart on the table, and said in a slightly seductive tone:
"Everyone, did I not explain it clearly enough? Is there anything you don't understand?"
Ma Li, the female mechanic of the White Tower, raised her hand tremblingly:
"Excuse me, Mr. Lightkeeper, what do you mean by this big vote?"
Good question! I wanted to ask that, too... Melanie, the team leader, nodded in appreciation.
Chen Qi frowned helplessly, walked forward, and lightly scratched the map on the long table:
"Let me explain briefly. As the Lightkeeper, I will board the Snake Father and head to the island where the Deep Blue Fire treasure is buried."
"Snake Father..."
Melanie whispered softly.
They have always known that the excavation site of the Deep Blue Fire is located deep in the Sea of Disaster.
In such a dangerous place, even the food placed in the backpack will rot quickly. At the same time, a large number of natural disasters will inevitably cause damage to the excavation equipment inside the island.
In other words, Poseidon Island must regularly travel to the Deep Blue Fire excavation site to transport supplies.
Melanie had long suspected that the Serpent Father was a supply transport ship for the Deep Blue Fire excavation site, but she had always lacked direct evidence and the means to track the Serpent Father.
And now, the brother of the lamplighter, whom she had always believed to be innocent, reckless and stubborn, actually answered her questions.
Did I misjudge? Is this person brave? Melanie wondered.
Chen Qi raised his head, glanced at the seven people around him, and asked like a teacher:
"Do you understand?"
"clear."
Everyone's instinctive reaction was to nod obediently like students.
Then, Chen Qi moved his index finger back to Poseidon Island:
"Everyone, therefore, after we leave the Sea God Island and reach the uninhabited sea area, we can take action and directly capture the Snake Father...
Once we seize the Snake Father, it means that we have mastered the coordinates of the Deep Blue Fire Island. At that time, we only need to proceed step by step. Whether it is the Deep Blue Fire or the treasure of the Snake Father, they will all be ours!"
"Of course, it all depends on the defense of our ultimate target island. Even if we can't take the island, with the coordinates of the Deep Blue Fire Island and the treasure on the Snake Father, we can make a fortune!"
“Make a fortune!!”
Chen Qi slammed the table like a big pirate announcing his goal to his men.
Ever since the last Shadow Tide Night, the White Tower Hunters have been unable to hold back and have launched new actions.
Being stimulated by Chen Qi like this made me even more itchy.
However, everyone remained on guard.
After all, Chen Qi was not a member of their White Tower, and no one understood why Chen Qi knew about the Deep Blue Fire Island, and why he knew that their target was the Deep Blue Fire.
Was I being fooled?... Glasses Hunter Airol adjusted his glasses:
"Mr. Lightkeeper, this is a very feasible plan, but before that, I would like to ask, why do you know our purpose?"
Chen Qi said speechlessly:
"That's what your captain Melanie said. Moreover, you come to me every day and seduce me with a lot of benefits. Unless I'm deaf, I don't know your purpose."
Everyone looked at Melanie.
“…”
Melanie coughed twice:
"This is part of my plan. However, little lightkeeper, you should know that in the waters near Poseidon Island, rashly tracking Poseidon Island's ships is a capital crime. Therefore, even if we know the destination of the Snake Father, we dare not track them easily."
Chen Qi asked:
"How's your boat going?"
Melanie raised her lips and said confidently:
"The White Tower's craftsmanship is second to none in the world! It far exceeds that of the Snake Father!"
Chen Qi ordered:
"That's fine, Melanie. Give me a positioning card and a communication card. If they go to the Sea of Disaster, they will definitely pass through the waters near the SEAL No. 3 mobile dock. You can prepare in advance and wait here."
Melanie is a card maker, and the characteristic of a card maker is extremely powerful functionality.
Fireball card, backpack card, flower and bird magic card, massage card, landlord card, clown card, good guy card, bank card...
All in all, as a card-making master, Melanie has all kinds of cards!
Positioning cards and communication cards are also very common cards.
Chen Qi pointed at the nautical chart on the long table and gently drew a route:
"Once the Snake Father is out of the protection of the Poseidon Pirates, I will send you the coordinates via the communication card. At that time, we will mobilize our entire army to seize the Snake Father."
"Um……"
Melanie took a closer look at the route Chen Qi had drawn.
He originally thought that Chen Qi was just acting on impulse, but both his command and the route he planned were quite professional.
It can even be said that it is much better than the rough plan made by her as the captain.
Could it be that this little newbie is pretending? Is he actually a member of a high-level organization? White Dove Times, impossible, impossible... Melanie crossed her arms, nodded, and asked:
"When will Snake Father act?"
Chen Qi smiled and said:
"In order not to expose their whereabouts, according to my speculation, they are very likely to take action tomorrow morning."
"Um……"
Finally, Chen Qi looked at everyone.
At this moment, everyone was still surprised and couldn't help but let their imagination run wild.
It was beyond their expectations that a newly promoted third-level transcendent suddenly showed up and took command of their professional team of seven.
Moreover, although Chen Qi's plan seems perfect, it actually still hides many hidden dangers. The first is the threat from Snake Father.
Although Chen Qi is a lantern keeper, as a new transcendent, he is no match for Snake Father.
Once it sends the coordinates, it is likely to be threatened by the Snake Father.
Even before sending the coordinates, Chen Qi was tied up by the Snake Father.
Second, there will be serious signal interference in the waters near the Sea of Natural Disaster and under the Laughing Moon at night...
In other words, even if they have communication cards and positioning cards, they cannot arrive in time.
This is an extremely dangerous action...
Of course, the most dangerous target is only one person, not their White Tower Hunters, but Chen Qi who is on the Snake Father.
That’s right, the truly dangerous person is Chen Qi in front of him!
Melanie and others stopped their busy thoughts, and they seemed to finally understand why Chen Qi came to find them, the White Tower Hunters?
Why are you so anxious?
In Melanie's opinion, Chen Qi had no choice.
This is his way of asking us for help...Melanie couldn't help but imagine it.
However, she also admired Chen Qi's courage.
It takes tremendous courage for a newly promoted transcendent to dare to launch a counterattack against Snake Father, the old cadre of Poseidon Island, and even get involved in the Deep Blue Fire Plan of the Poseidon Pirates.
Everyone looked at each other and nodded.
As the team leader, Melanie also walked up to Chen Qi and placed her right hand on his shoulder:
"You have courage! Lighthouse keeper, don't worry, we will definitely protect you on this trip!"
Protection, did these people misunderstand something... Chen Qi couldn't help but show a speechless expression.
But no matter what, the White Tower Hunters' goal is the same as his.
After a brief discussion, they quickly reached a cooperative relationship.
"It's a pleasure to work with you. By the way, the tea tastes good~"
After Chen Qi finished the discussion, he waved goodbye and left the library meeting room.
…
…
The next day, Poseidon Island, early morning.
A large amount of fog and dark clouds made the entire Poseidon Island gloomy and dark, as if a huge rainstorm was about to come.
On the dilapidated road, the cold light shone, and the pirates had gloomy faces. The scars on their bodies and the blood-stained weapons in their hands made them look particularly creepy.
After Chen Qi gave instructions to the deputy captain Water Elf No. 3, he went to the tavern, bought a glass of mead, a bacon burger, and then bought a new newspaper from the big white pigeon.
Finally, Chen Qi spent another 200 contribution points to buy two divination coins of "Lantern Dice".
This was one of the few good things he got after visiting the exchange shop in the bar.
The fortune-telling coin is a prop used for fortune-telling with a gambler's head on the front and a dice on the back.
However, the conditions for using this coin are very strict. Except for the dice lamp, the probability of using this coin correctly does not exceed 50%.
Moreover, divination is just divination. This ordinary lamp dice prop has an accuracy rate of only 80%. It will not give a specific answer, only some vague images...
Besides that, you can't predict big things, or things that have nothing to do with you...
All in all, this is a very limited dice prop.
Chen Qi was playing with the coins in his hand while holding the newspaper in one hand, reading all the information about the Witch Sea.
There have been countless news about the Witch Sea recently. In addition to the Night of Shadow Tide, B-level cracks have begun to appear in various places, and the situation in the entire Witch Sea is extremely dangerous.
Of course, the most news on Poseidon Island is the conflict between Bonfire Energy Company and the Poseidon Pirates.
Bonfire Energy Company and the Navy destroyed 20 ships of the Poseidon Pirates in a row...
And these things happened in the sea near them.
Chen Qi was secretly surprised and couldn't help but speculate.
It seems that Bonfire Energy Company has also learned that the Poseidon Pirates own an island in the Sea of Disaster where they can mine the Deep Blue Fire.
In order to find this island, the Navy and Poseidon Island dispatched a large number of patrol ships on the path from Poseidon Island to the Sea of Disaster.
Sure enough, the Witch Sea after Xiaoyue is not peaceful... Unknowingly, Chen Qi has reached the dock.
Opposite him was the pale green Snake Father. In the silent atmosphere of dark clouds, the entire Snake Father looked even more terrifying.
On the deck, a pirate from the Snake Father said coldly to Chen Qi:
"Come on board, the boat is about to sail."
"OK!"
Chen Qi pinched the divination coin in his hand with his fingers and said silently in his heart:
"Great God of Luck, God of Twenty-Sided Dice, please grant your servants a favor and answer me, is my trip to the sea this time a good one or a bad one?"
As he spoke, Chen Qi gently flicked the divination coin into the air.
At this moment, a special prompt popped up in front of him.
[You have triggered the Law of Light, and the accuracy of divination has increased. ]
Bang!
The coin fell into Chen Qi's hand.
Can the Rule of Light also improve the probability of divination... Chen Qi silently looked at the result of the coin.
Head, positive result is better...
Good news!
Chen Qi couldn't help but cheer in his heart.
At this moment, a prompt popped up in front of Chen Qi.
[You triggered the Law of Light. In the gray fog, a fist was thrown out from the darkness and hit you hard in the abdomen...]
Chen Qi couldn't help but close his eyes and feel the scene in his mind.
At this moment, he seemed to see a terrifying scene where he was suddenly hit by a punch, and then thrown into the deep sea, bleeding and creating huge waves...
"This is……"
Chen Qi opened his eyes and woke up from the illusion just now.
I was hit? And my defense was broken? Why?
This shouldn’t be the case. If the result is good, then why was I beaten? And why was I beaten so violently? And why was I seriously injured... Chen Qi was conflicted for a moment.
Moreover, the prophetic scene in his mind was too vague. He could only feel that the fist looked small, even weak, and should have little power, but in fact it was extremely powerful...
This punch even put his life in danger.
Chen Qi shook his head. He couldn't guess who defeated him based on this blurry scene.
Could it be that I will be involved in a tough battle with Snake Father... Chen Qi thought to himself, silently raised his head, looked up at the deck, and looked down at his Snake Father.
The Snake Father was watching him.
In fact, judging from the spiritual power field alone, Chen Qi believed that defeating the Snake Father at sea would not be a big problem.
Chen Qi was 60 to 70 percent sure he could capture the Snake Father.
Not to mention, the Snake Father's main means of attack, the many dangerous sea snakes, were completely useless against him.
On the deck, Snake Father said coldly:
"It's time to come up, Lantern Keeper. Divination is just divination after all, and it can't change your fate..."
At this moment, the snake father did not conceal its terrifying dark green pupils, and the viciousness hidden beneath those pupils.
"good."
Chen Qi climbed up the ladder and boarded the Snake Father.
When he got on board, the Snake Father started its engine and headed towards the Sea of Disaster at maximum speed.
Chen Qi was also invited into the VIP room and stayed with six second-level mercenary hunters.
The decoration of this VIP room is not complicated. Simply put, it is a long table and ten seats by the window.
Chen Qi sat by the window, watching the scene in the distance.
Unconsciously, the nearly 100-meter-high lighthouse on Poseidon Island became smaller and smaller. Finally, the lighthouse disappeared from his sight, and only the white sea was left around it.
Along the way, the entire ship was surprisingly quiet.
No one spoke for the entire four hours of sailing.
Almost there... Chen Qi estimated the distance, secretly took out the card and sent out the coordinates.
White Tower Hunters, now it’s up to you to perform... Chen Qi took the card.
At this moment, a thin hunter finally spoke, whispering softly:
"Everyone, after we set out this time, will we never be able to come back..."
His face was full of gloom. If it weren't for the coercion of Snake Father, he would never have boarded the ship.
Everyone was silent, with only a few "hmm"s in response to him.
Chen Qi looked at everyone curiously.
Apart from him, these six hunters seemed to be "workers" forcibly hired by the Snake Father.
At this time, the Snake Father, whom everyone had been waiting for for a long time, finally walked into the VIP room.
Snake Father ignored these second-level hunters. In his eyes, most third-level transcendents were just tools, let alone second-level transcendents.
Those below level three are all ants.
The snake father raised his head and said coldly:
"Lightkeeper, come with me. I have a private matter and need your assistance."
They’re finally here... Chen Qi can now confirm that there are only three third-level transcendents on this ship.
Facing the Snake Father, Chen Qi is confident that he can escape unscathed in the event of a conflict.
"good--"
Chen Qi followed the other party and arrived at the room at the bottom of the cabin, which was an extremely closed room.
The walls are made of thick black steel. The whole room is extremely monotonous. On the walls, you can see fresh blood, which makes it seem particularly depressing.
The moment he stepped into the room, Chen Qi felt the majestic spiritual power full of murderous intent behind him!
He saw a shadow on the wall in front of him growing bigger and bigger, and finally a snake head emerged from the cloak.
Crunching, in just a moment, the body of the Snake Father suddenly grew to two meters high. The body under his cloak was covered with snake scales that did not belong to humans!
Cup Technique. Snake Body Incarnation!
The third-level cup-phase profession. Beastman. Snakeman!
This is a powerful profession that can allow one to complete 'beast evolution' and has an extremely high physical panel.
At the same time, because the body will undergo a lot of changes, many people do not like these beasts except in big cities that advocate human diversity. Therefore, they often cover their bodies tightly with cloaks.
At this moment, the snake father put down his cloak silently and spit out his snake tongue:
"Lighthouse keeper, don't be afraid, I'm not a monster..."
Scared...Chen Qi turned around.
At this moment, the snake father took a step forward and continued:
"Lightkeeper, you are quite capable, but outsiders are not allowed to take any important positions on Poseidon Island. Therefore, in the name of the Goddess of the Sea, I will give you a mark, a mark of a snake...
From now on, you belong to the Poseidon Pirates, the Goddess of the Sea!"
As he spoke, a scalpel and a very sticky, tentacle-like little monster appeared in the hands of the snake father.
This is a parasitic sea beast that has been treated with black whale blood, the Heart-Eating Sea Touch! Once implanted, the Snake Father can easily crush Chen Qi's heart through a spell!
At that time, Chen Qi, a third-level transcendent, will become his snake father's right-hand man, an absolutely obedient right-hand man.
In the Poseidon Pirates, high-level extraordinary people control their subordinates through special parasitic sea beasts, which is their "initiation ceremony".
The Black Whale Pirates and the Poseidon Pirates have similar methods of controlling their subordinates, which is also the main reason why Chen Qi is unwilling to join the pirate group.
Soon, I will possess a sharp blade called the Third-Rank Lantern Keeper... The Snake Father couldn't help but reveal a hungry look:
"Of course, Lantern Keeper, my ritual is much more cruel than other rituals. You know, I follow nature and don't like anesthesia! I believe that only pain can make people truly feel the gift of the goddess of the sea!
Only the pain of the skin! Can feel everything! "
Chen Qi turned his head, twisted his neck, and flexed his fists:
"So much nonsense, Lao Deng!"
There is no need to be polite when facing the corruption of the Poseidon Pirates, only fists are needed!
"you!"
"I don't know the etiquette."
The snake father suddenly flexed his muscles, clenched his fists covered with snake scales, then twisted his body, rushed out, and punched out.
However, a gust of wind passed by...
In an instant, Chen Qi flashed in front of Snake Father at an even faster speed and punched him!
The reaction is fast enough, quite capable... The snake father reacted in time, blocking with both hands, and resisting the attack:
"Not enough! This fist is too weak!"
"Not enough! Not enough! This fragile fist!"
The Snake Father roared loudly, the cup-shaped one's body was several times that of these ordinary third-level transcendents!
His body can even withstand tens of thousands of bullets!
Come on, let’s have a passionate collision of bodies!
The next second, the snake father's pupils widened as he saw more and more huge dark tentacles behind Yu Chenqi, slowly growing bigger and thicker, and forming whipping movements...
In this small, dark room, the shadow of the thick tentacles was reflected on the wall.
In front of this huge tentacle shadow, the shadow of the snake father seems extremely small.
"tentacle……"
The snake father, who had transformed into a snake body, was stunned for a moment.
The next second, countless whips came at him.
Bang!!!
