Witch, I'm really not the Deep Sea Ancient God!

The tone of the Flower Witch remained incredibly cold, as if a mere Deep Sea Titan was nothing more than a trivial fish in her hand.

"Resolve this matter, Black Hunter?"

Palu, rich in information, paused for a moment.

The tone of the other party was unexpectedly relaxed.

But he quickly understood Black Hunter's identity!

Undoubtedly, the opponent was the very one who had just robbed the Devil Fish, appeared on the bounty order, and was the newly emerged supernova with a bounty of up to ten million, the Tentacle Monster!

Although the Tentacle Monster's bounty was only ten million, even less than the third-tier Black-eyed Captain!

Daring to fight proactively in a sea full of Sea Beasts was itself an extraordinary act!

The origin of the Tentacle Monster was far from simple; the bounty was worth at least twenty million!

This legendary witch had such a friend... Palu was secretly taken aback, feeling that the Flower Witch was becoming even more mysterious.

At this moment, Palu deeply understood.

Unless his Ice Demon Pirate Group could demonstrate enough trust, he would not be able to get any useful information from the Flower Witch!

The crew was expecting me to bring back good news... Palu bowed and said:

"Witch, I apologize for disturbing you late at night, but we, the Ice Demon Pirate Group, mean no harm. We, like the legendary Ice Witch, are researchers of the history of the seas, fighting for the secrets of the deep sea.

If you ever need the help of our Ice Demon Pirate Group, we will not hesitate."

Immediately after, Palu lightly rubbed his fingers:

"A dice from the Land of Chaos, as an apology for my offense, it's a small token."

He then handed a six-sided die to Chen Qi.

"What's this?"

Chen Qi's pupils suddenly contracted, and a special prompt quickly appeared before his eyes.

[Six-sided Dice:

Nature Form: Dice

Introduction: A six-sided die, all sides showing six, containing extraordinary power to alter luck.

Effect: Can modify the random event outcomes in C-tier and below cracks, guaranteeing the best result no matter how small the probability.

Note: A savior for the unlucky; with a slight move, luck is in your hands!]

Six-sided Dice!

Chen Qi was deeply shocked.

Was Palu really this generous?

In the game, it was a rare item exclusive to the unlucky!

The main use in altering determinations was in the settlement of cracks.

Some Dice Phase crack rewards had extremely low probabilities of special rewards!

For example, drawing a reward from a C-tier crack in a D-tier crack, or even a B-tier crack reward.

These rewards belonged only to those blessed with extreme luck!

With this die, even if the probability was only 0.1%, one could draw the highest probability reward!

Six-sided Dice, reversing fate!

Chen Qi accepted the die.

Then, Palu picked up his lute:

"Well then, Miss Witch, goodbye. Have a pleasant evening. If you ever need the Ice Demon Pirate Group, just let us know."

He still had many questions, but if he truly wanted to befriend the other party, it would not be polite to probe into these matters.

Before leaving, Palu glanced at Chef Chen Qi with a sympathetic look.

The Flower Witch indeed remained as mysterious as the rumors said.

May tomorrow morning not see a flower-covered corpse floating at sea.

Palu, holding his lute, boarded a night-traveling ship and left Sea Demon Island.

...

...

"He finally left..."

Chen Qi breathed a long sigh of relief. To be honest, he still wanted to buy some intel from Palu.

After Palu left, he returned to the small cabin boat.

At this moment, the previously aloof Flower Witch looked like a child frightened by a dragon, burying her face into a water elf pillow.

If not seen with his own eyes, no one would associate her with the cold-speaking witch just now.

The Flower Witch had endured too much in a day; if she hadn't retrieved the Floral Staff, her spirit would have crumbled.

"What do we do? Qi, a Fourth Rank Legend is after us!"

"Qi, why don't you make us something delicious? This might be our last meal!"

"Qi, do you have any wishes? We should fulfill them soon!"

"Qi, I want to eat your extraordinary fish bait."

The Flower Witch lay weakly on the floor, holding the water elf pillow while her legs trembled incessantly.

Earlier, the Fourth Rank aura Palu exuded nearly scared the life out of her soul!

One must know, a Fourth Rank Legend was an existence capable of moving mountains and overturning seas!

Even ten Third-tier Transcendents or fifty Third-tier Transcendents might not be able to defeat a single Fourth Rank Legend, marking their enormous power disparity!

To the Flower Witch, they had just been a hair's breadth away from death.

Chen Qi sat on a chair and took out the Ice Demon Pirate Group's sea chart:

"Calm down. Based on the current situation, he shouldn't harbor ill intentions towards us. Moreover, he seems quite afraid of you."

Then, Chen Qi took an apple from the fridge and handed it to the Flower Witch.

The Flower Witch took the apple and curled up in the corner in a self-imposed seclusion:

"He's afraid of my teacher; and now, the teacher is no longer around."

Chen Qi curiously asked: "Teacher?"

The Flower Witch paused for a few seconds. Logically, she shouldn't tell Chen Qi about this.

However, after all they'd been through, they could be considered trustworthy friends.

"Yes, my teacher, the Ice Witch."

"The Ice Witch is your teacher?"

Chen Qi murmured.

Although he had long suspected it, the current situation still left him in awe!

The Ice Witch was an existence that stirred the tides centuries ago, a deceased legend.

Even a legend couldn't escape the Lantern Death God's pursuit after living past a hundred years.

The Flower Witch wasn't over twenty years old yet; a decade ago, she was just a sickly little girl.

This meant that the Ice Witch from centuries ago was still alive and active in these seas just a decade ago.

This was indeed an earth-shattering secret!

Chen Qi's heart leaped with joy, never expecting the Flower Witch to share such a secret with him.

After speaking, the Flower Witch fell into a self-blaming mood.

She was too weak and powerless.

If it had not been for Chen Qi, she would have been unable to exact revenge on the Black Whale Group at Sea Demon Gorge, let alone retrieve the Floral Staff.

Chen Qi comforted her for a while and began dividing the spoils with the Flower Witch.

The Meat Cutting Bone Breaking weapon was his exclusive weapon; the Flower Witch had no need for close-combat arms.

Chen Qi took his exclusive weapon Meat Cutting Bone Breaking and the lucky dice they received earlier.

As for the green-bound magic book, the Joyous Elf, and the Floral Staff, these three relics were useless to Chen Qi, so he gave them to the Flower Witch.

Then, Chen Qi made some delicious fish balls to comfort the Flower Witch.

The Flower Witch, having eaten her fill, returned to the inn to bathe and wash off the dirt and blood from her body.

Chen Qi stayed on the small cabin boat, as he still had many things to do.

"Phew..."

This mission not only brought him the exclusive weapon Meat Cutting Bone Breaking but also a powerful Shadow Image Skill Card, and he had also earned two thousand Spiritual Points from the Shadow Image cracks!

These gains were already enormous!

However, he still hadn't found any transplantable Sea Beasts.

Chen Qi wanted a safe and reliable source of income; just the Ghost Fire Fish's Ghost Fire Oil was far from sufficient.

He was in a critical development phase and urgently needed extraordinary materials to enhance his constitution.

Unfortunately, the Sea Beasts around Sea Demon Gorge couldn't be transplanted easily or provide a source of money.

The Black-armored Shark and the sea serpent, though strong in combat, had nothing of monetary value.

"La la la la la~"

At that moment, a small green-haired figure emerged by Chen Qi's small cabin boat, its green tentacle hair wriggling on the sea surface.

It was the little Sea Demon...

Chen Qi confirmed there was no one around and brought the little green-haired one into the boat:

"Little Green Algae, do you need something?"

The little green-haired one lightly grazed its fishtail against the boat's deck, blinking its eyes:

"La la la la~"

Deep Sea Water Elf No. 2 immediately snuggled up to the little green-haired one.

It must want something to eat... Chen Qi thought for a moment and handed the extraordinary fish bait to the little green-haired Sea Demon.

To think it followed him this far for food!

The little green-haired one obediently sat down, picked up a lyre, and gently played:

"La la la la~"

Travel Song... Chen Qi was slightly surprised.

The little green-haired one not only wanted something tasty but also wished to see places beyond Sea Demon Gorge!

Sea Demons typically lived in groups, yet this one wanted to leave Sea Demon Gorge!

A unique little Sea Demon.

"This is troublesome..."

Chen Qi rubbed his forehead.

Unlike the Deep Sea Water Elf, the Sea Demons were real monsters.

Moreover, Sea Demons couldn't stay out of water for too long, and a juvenile Sea Demon had very limited combat abilities, which meant it could easily perish.

If anyone discovered a Sea Demon aboard his small cabin boat, whether they were Navy personnel or the Flower Witch, he would be in a tight spot.

His only option was to send the little Sea Demon to White Tree Land.

That place had the Nearshore Dominator and Ghost Fire Fish, which should be fascinating for the little green-haired one.

Chen Qi sat on the chair, opened the Ice Demon Pirate Group's map again, and stared coldly:

"Little Green Algae, without my command, you must not sing carelessly."

The little green-haired one obediently nodded, then hugged Deep Sea Water Elf No. 2 in its arms.

Chen Qi carefully examined the map.

Palu's intelligence just now was very interesting.

A Deep Sea Titan had appeared near the Sea Demon Gorge at the Navy Research Base.

A Deep Sea Titan by itself could attract countless deep-sea monsters.

Such an existence was called a natural disaster because it mysteriously appeared then mysteriously disappeared over time.

Mysteriously appearing and then mysteriously disappearing.

Just like a storm, volcanic eruption, or tide.

Chen Qi glanced at the time.

If he went there during the day, he might be discovered by the Navy Research Base researchers.

Nighttime might be a better opportunity.

Chen Qi reviewed the map, crossing his legs.

Unlike the Flower Witch, after the robbery, he felt not fatigued but rather immensely energized!

So far, he hadn't encountered a deep-sea monster stronger than the Blood-Eye Wall.

Now was a perfect chance to take a look.
