Chapter 291 Equipment Upgrade
Chen Qi waved his index finger with some difficulty.
Snap! Snap!
At this moment, the sea was surging with waves and the tentacles were violent, and Fen, who was rich in spiritual power, became the main target of attack.
The sea water condensed into columns and then turned into tentacles, falling from the sky and slapping people in the face one after another.
Although the tentacles were not flapping very fast, their number was huge. Fen felt a little tired after dodging them.
Finn said anxiously:
"Qi, can you control these tentacles?"
"It's my first time, so I need some time to adjust..."
Chen Qi tried hard to adapt to this feeling. He couldn't precisely control the specific actions of each tentacle and could only give some general instructions:
"Fen, don't move."
"???"
Fen was stunned for a moment after hearing what Chen Qi said, and while she was stunned, a translucent tentacle suddenly stretched out from the sea and tightly wrapped around her waist.
"well!"
No way… Finn lowered his head.
Chen Qi smiled slightly:
"I'll practice my skills for just a little while."
As he spoke, Chen Qi raised his fingers, and the translucent tentacles lifted Fen high into the air.
Unlike his Touch of Remnant Fire, the tentacles of the deep-sea compression ball, after merging into the sea, created translucent tentacles condensed from sea water.
“…”
Fen blinked her green eyes, tilted her head, her wet green hair gently draped over her shoulders, and looked at Chen Qi speechlessly.
How does it feel? He actually likes this skill? Finn couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.
Chen Qi smiled without saying anything, and just raised his finger lightly. In the sea, the water condensed high like a whirlpool again, forming a column of sea water, ready to hit her head.
The power of these tentacles is enough to deal with second-level extraordinary people, but it is still not enough to deal with her.
It's useless... Fen smiled confidently, ready to rely on brute force to defeat Chen Qi's skill.
However, the next second, she suddenly felt a toxin seeping into her body through the skin of the tentacles!
【Death Poison】, a highly effective poison that can reduce physical attributes and produce a painful feeling at the same time.
Besides that, there is joy!
Pain and happiness!
Whip of Death and Entanglement Lv2, Chen Qi's basic tentacle skills, can make the tentacles' basic attacks carry [Death Poison] and [Pleasure Poison]. This kind of toxin is most effective when it entangles the opponent.
The toxins slowly enter the body.
Fen's expression was a little surprised. She struggled hard, but under the slight effect of the poison, she couldn't break through the bondage of the Sea of Trash Touch with brute force alone.
Damn it… Finn was about to show his true strength.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The next second, another tentacle fell from the sky and hit her head three times like a hammer.
The sound is very loud!
That’s a good start!
At this moment, Fen finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"Quack!"
The next moment, Finn could not bear the humiliation any longer, and he performed a self-destruct technique on the spot, blowing the tentacles apart, then did a backflip in the air and landed gracefully.
"start……"
Damn it... Fen smoothed her long hair. Vines grew beside her feet. She also wanted Chenqi to experience the same feeling.
Chen Qi said helplessly:
"No way, I can't find any other practice opponents around here."
As he spoke, he retracted his fingers and gathered all the tentacles in front of them. These tentacles once again transformed into special spiritual power in the sea water and finally condensed into a compressed ball the size of a palm.
Return!
Chen Qi took the ball with his hand and put it into the backpack on the waist of his hunter suit.
The test is completed.
Chen Qi summed it up. Although in the eyes of the deep-sea hunter, this is just a bath towel, but for him, it is undoubtedly an extremely powerful artifact.
Its most serious shortcoming is that the strength of a single Sea Tentacle is not high, far less than the strength of the Remnant Fire Touch.
However, it has two biggest characteristics.
First, it has extremely low energy consumption. It can absorb energy from sea water and consumes very little spiritual power.
Although their combat capability on land is relatively weak, above the sea, with extremely low energy consumption, these tentacles seem to be inexhaustible and can be regenerated continuously.
The second is the advantage in number and size. The tentacles can reach a maximum length of 20 meters and a radius of 5 meters. When at full strength, they can continuously grow tentacles.
Although in one-on-one combat, it can only play an auxiliary role.
However, in a one-versus-many situation, it can effectively prevent interference from miscellaneous soldiers and can also effectively strike ships on the sea.
In addition, Chen Qi discovered that the sea tentacles that grew from this compressed ball could also be used in conjunction with some of his [Tentacle] skills.
It can be said that this skill greatly increases his safety in fighting at sea.
Good... Chen Qi finished his summary, then grabbed the poisonous vines in his hand and prepared to attack him from behind.
Vine magic? This is just a trivial trick? You still want to attack me by surprise?
Chen Qi narrowed his eyes, turned around and smiled at Fen.
A guilty little gray flower appeared on Fen's head, and she rubbed her hands:
"Qi, you know what? This is not a sneak attack. This is the vine of the Flower Phase, a vine of pleasure that can give you massage. You have been helping me collect herbs recently. Thank you for your hard work..."
Do you think I would believe it... Chen Qi clapped his hands and led Fen to a more secluded place.
Now, Fen has finished collecting the herbs and he is halfway recovered.
It's time to prepare for the next step.
This place emitted such a huge tentacle wave. To be on the safe side, Chen Qi and Fen found an unnamed island and sat under a coconut tree to discuss the follow-up plan.
Chen Qi broke the coconut open and handed it to Fen:
"Finn, it's almost time for us to start preparing for action."
"Are we really going to start?"
Finn took half the coconut and said with a little worry.
Chen Qi leaned against the coconut tree and thought about his next goals. First, he wanted to increase his own strength, and second, he wanted to help Fen officially become a legend.
The Sea of Mist is full of dangers, and he is not qualified to enter it now.
If Youfen could become a true 'Flower Witch' and become a legend...
These days, whenever Fen had nothing to do, she would make tonic medicine and feed it to him. With the help of Fen's various tonic medicines, his health improved very quickly.
Chen Qi even had a feeling that Fen cared more about his health than he did.
Thanks to the tonic, his physical fitness actually improved by 5 points despite his physical overdraft and injuries.
This is when Finn is just a 'pharmacist'!
Chen Qi couldn't imagine how strong his body would be after being nourished by the potion of the legendary flower-like pharmacist!
By then, even Hagrid, one of the supernovas, this drug-addicted guy will be too terrifying to be compared to him.
"Shall we set out at once, then?"
Fin asked curiously.
"No."
Chen Qi shook his head.
The Tsukishima Flower is located deep in the Dragon Flower Islands. If you want to get the Tsukishima Flower, you must not only defeat the many golems controlled by the Tsukishima Flower, but most importantly, you must beware of the legendary dragon tamer King Jie.
As one of the seven great pirates, the Dragon Tamer is a very tough opponent...
Chen Qi frowned. With his and Finn's current strength, they were no match for the group of thunder dragons under the command of the Dragon Taming King Jie.
If you want to take a legendary herb from his back garden, you must wait for an opportunity, wait for the dragon tamer to leave! A time for war!
More importantly, Chen Qi estimated that with his current strength, it was still too risky to face Feilong, the king of dragon taming.
He must complete the major upgrade of his equipment and the comprehensive upgrade of his skills before this happens.
There are still thirty deep blue flames on Chen Qi's body.
The Shadow Weaver Summoning Card can summon a Shadow Weaver who can help him forge new equipment, consuming about twenty Deep Blue Fires.
Other deep blue fires all require a blacksmith and a large amount of forging materials.
It is not possible to upgrade equipment with the Deep Blue Fire alone.
But the trouble is, the news of the 'stolen Deep Blue Fire' has spread all over the sea, and finding a trustworthy blacksmith will require a bit of luck.
In addition, the Shadow Weaver he summoned to forge items requires Creeping Shadows, and he also needs to purchase a large number of Creeping Shadows.
These things require money to buy, a lot of money.
Lack of money... Chen Qi couldn't help but shook his head:
"Finn, let's go back to SEAL One and wait for an opportunity, and prepare for battle."
SEAL One has a lot of supplies and many places to make money.
"SEAL ONE?!"
Fern held her head in worry. When she thought of the many bounty hunters of SEAL One, her head started to hurt.
“…”
Chen Qi looked at Fen's current outfit.
At this moment, Finn was wearing a dark green cloak, and under the cloak was a pharmacist's uniform. With this appearance, he would definitely be discovered if he entered SEAL One again.
"Just change your clothes and have an identity. There are many adventurers with unknown origins in the Witch Sea..."
Chen Qi drank the coconut juice in one gulp and thought about his next steps.
…
…
Three weeks later, at noon, SEAL One moved the dock.
Numerous merchant ships were parked beside the mobile dock, forming a densely packed small city on the sea.
In the distance, three large cargo ships and a passenger ship were slowly approaching, carrying goods from all over the world. The huge hulls were moving steadily forward in the waves, like giants of the ocean, echoing the mobile dock in the distance.
Another round of loading and unloading was about to begin. On the deck of SEAL No. 3, hundreds of sailors wiped the sweat off their heads while watching the scene in front of them.
The bald leader of the boatmen shook his head and sighed:
"What a pity, sorry for the trouble. I won't be able to have my last meal at the Water Spirit Restaurant today."
"Yeah, what a pity. The restaurant clearly still had low-priced healing potions for sale, but unfortunately I didn't get any. If I had enough healing potions, I could have entered the D-level rift, gotten a second-level career card, become a second-level, and married a wife..."
"Don't even think about it. D-level cracks are fatal. It's better to persuade the owner and the owner's wife of the Water Elf Restaurant not to run away."
"How can we not run? Recently, the situation on the sea has changed. The navy has been losing ground. We, SEAL One, might also become prisoners of the Black Whale Group. Although the two of them are lucky third-level, they must be very scared."
The two foreman sighed and turned around to look at Chen Qi and Fen in front of the door of Seal Hall No. 1.
Chen Qi stood in front of the hall, opened his backpack card, and counted the good materials he had found recently.
These days, in addition to acting as a restaurant owner, he spent most of his time as a hunter, completing tasks and looking for materials to upgrade equipment.
These days, he has obtained spider silk, creeping shadows, sea dragon scales, lamp dust, etc.
All these materials cost Chen Qi five million at one time, plus the recent catering business, the sale of a large amount of materials, some potions made by the Flower Witch, and the shells earned from accepting hunter missions.
All in all, the total cost was a whopping 15 million shells.
Purchasing equipment materials is a bottomless pit. Chen Qi, who was originally wealthy, suddenly had his wallet emptied.
"I have no money left, but fortunately, I have gained a lot..."
Chen Qi sat down on the lounge chair by the window in the dock of SEAL Hall No. 3 and took another look at his new equipment.
He has created a new piece of equipment, the 'Ember Boots', and upgraded his primary weapon by summoning the Little Shadow Weaver.
[Ember Boots:
Nature: Shadow, Blade
effect:
Basic Passive: Enhances equipment agility by 30 points and improves the effects of all agility skills by 20%.
Hidden Shadow (Active): This equipment can reduce your spiritual aura by 50% and can eliminate the sound of your walking by condensing a small shadow inside the shoes.
Ember Footguards (Passive): When the wearer enters combat, the flame mode on the soles of the shoes will be activated, increasing agility by another 20%.
Boots of Remnant Fire, a total of five points of Deep Blue Fire were consumed.
The other one is the upgrade of the most important weapon 'Flesh Chopping and Bone Breaking'!
[Chopping flesh and breaking bones (Ember Fire Upgrade)
Appearance: Blade
Description: A long sword upgraded by tempering with deep blue fire combined with dragon scale powder.
effect:
Blood and Flesh Slash (Passive): The power of the basic attack is greatly increased, the blade becomes extremely sharp, and gathers deep blue fire. When the blade hits the opponent, it will splash out deep blue fire that is enough to melt steel, tearing the opponent's blood and flesh, and causing an indelible healing effect.
Rage of Power (Passive): This blade is already a legendary weapon for performing power skills. All power skills used with this weapon will receive a 30% power bonus and additional blade damage.
Rage Blade: After activating Rage Blade, the long sword will be transformed into a two-meter-long sword burning with scorching flames. This power will increase your overall attributes by 20% and generate a large amount of blade-like rage, greatly increasing the power of your moves. 】
The upgrade cost of Raging Blade is quite high, and fifteen points of Deep Blue Fire are consumed at one time.
Chen Qi glanced at the Furious Blade at his waist. The blade under the scabbard had some sharp dark blue lines on it.
This blade is now an extremely powerful piece of equipment even for legends.
Unfortunately, the summoning time of the Shadow Weaver is limited, and he cannot give all the equipment to the Shadow Weaver forging.
The remaining ten points of deep blue fire are difficult to spend... Chen Qi shook his head.
"start!"
At this moment, Fen, wearing Water Elf No. 2 on his head, a white mask and a waiter's uniform, hurried over.
These days, Fen, who was in disguise, has been working as a waitress at Chenqi Restaurant.
Water Elf No. 2 was leaning against the top of their heads, and few people paid attention to her mask.
Fen anxiously handed a newspaper to Chen Qi:
"Qi, please read today's newspaper! Something big has happened!"
Hmm? Chen Qi took the newspaper curiously and glanced at it quickly.
There are two big news on the newspaper headlines.
#Captain Black Eyes took action, defeated the great slave trader Moon Owl, saved the special group of people suffering from sea beast disease, and accidentally discovered the treasure of the deep-sea hunter, replacing Dia who was beaten by the black hunter and became the new supernova! #
Captain Black Eyes, why do you still have a role to play? No, why can you find the treasure of the deep-sea hunter... Chen Qi complained for a while and continued reading.
#Navy headquarters attacked! Two warships, ten mechas, all destroyed! More than five thousand navy injured! One of the witch relics fell into the hands of the Black Whale Group! ! #
Chen Qi clenched the newspaper excitedly:
"The official war between the Navy and the Black Whale Group broke out earlier than I thought."
