Witch, I'm really not an ancient god of the deep sea!

Chapter 32 Windfall from Heaven
Inside the cluttered boathouse.

A bronze-skinned man held his breath, hiding himself under the dimly lit bed.

His nickname was "Iron Hand," and he was a very ambitious gang member.

However, yesterday, he encountered an opportunity.

A distinguished guest arrived at the Black Rabbit Gang, where he belonged: the esteemed Captain Blackeye, the leader of the Black Whale Sawshark.

Captain Blackeye asked them about a young man with "Sea Beast Disease," who, according to Captain Blackeye, had stolen their belongings.

In order to find information, he dragged out everyone in the Black Rabbit Gang, except for the top leaders, who was related to the sea beast disease patient, and whipped them hard on the buttocks and interrogated them severely!

His words were harsh and his actions were agitated; he was nothing like a pirate captain and treated the Black Rabbit Gang members as mere tools for venting his anger.

The doctor on the ship next to him, Crow, had a smirk on his lips, a smile that was both ambiguous and insipid, giving off a strange sense of dread.

But the Black Rabbit Gang is a gang that sells people, not a gang that kidnaps people for ransom!

Who cares where those lowly slaves came from!
Therefore, after discussing for most of the day, the Black Rabbit Gang's leaders and Captain Black Eye could only conclude that the other party came from the archipelago.

With the navy now active and storms raging, and sea monsters surging like schools of fish, they can only take a long-term view in the face of this situation.

However, during their questioning, they missed one person: Iron Hand, the ruthless member of the Black Rabbit Gang.

He was different; he had met Chen Qi and had also learned by chance that the other party might be from Maro Town.

Judging from Captain Blackeye's tone, that person must have stolen something very valuable from him.

Thus, Iron Hand conceived a bold idea.

If he can find that thing before Captain Blackeye, he will surely rise to prominence, win several wives, and reach the pinnacle of life!
This is crucial information that only he knows!
This is his chance, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Inside the cluttered houseboat, Iron Hand lay quietly under the bed, as still as a corpse.

As he cautiously lurked in the water some distance away, he spotted the sea monster patient and Chen Qi.

With so many people around, it's difficult for him to make a move.

When night falls, it will be his time to hunt.

Iron Hand chuckled to himself. He could already picture himself slowly emerging from under the bed at night, then suddenly slapping the other person awake and scaring them to tears.

boom!
That was the sound of the ship's door opening.

"You're back..." Iron Hand held his breath. This shabby bed was so small that if it weren't for the dim lighting, he might have been discovered.

boom!
That's the sound of starting a fire.

"I'm so tired, and I still need a good meal. With so many ingredients, I can cook a meal for Teacher An too."

Chen Qi put the ingredients and kitchen utensils away.

Eat slowly, this might be your last dinner... Iron Hand revealed a slight smile, it seems he hid it well.

However, the next second, he heard a chilling remark.

"Stir-frying is definitely incomplete without lard. Perfect, I have some lard under the bed, I'll use it later."

"!"

Is there any lard stored under this bed?

Upon hearing this, Iron Hand immediately broke out in a cold sweat, cold sweat pouring down his back.

He was the one hiding in the shadows, so why was he feeling afraid?

Is this lard referring to him?

Tick-tock, tick-tock!
Two drops of cold sweat fell to the ground.

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became!
No, I can't take it anymore. Driven by fear, he suddenly crawled out from under the bed.

Let's go straight for the hard way!
Give him a surprise!
He planned to use his strong arms to capture Chen Qi directly, and then slowly interrogate him.

However, when he came out, he didn't see anyone!

"behind!"

Iron Hand reacted quickly, turned around abruptly, and threw a punch.

"The response has been good."

Chen Qi took a step back, easily dodging the random punch.

In Iron Hand's view, all slaves captured by the Black Rabbit Gang were scum who had no will of their own.

Just as they were able to bring many people to the Black Rabbit Gang right in front of the police.

In his mind, this was nothing more than taking a sick and weak slave from a small rural island.

This is something that no one will care about, and it's something that's easy to do.

That's why he dared to be so arrogant all the way.

However, he now felt fear, intense fear.

"You dare scare me!"

Iron Hand's fear turned into rage, and he instantly assumed a punching stance. His right mechanical arm burst into flames with scalding steam, and his aura changed drastically!

He grinned, revealing his teeth – this was his secret to maintaining his position within the Black Rabbit Gang:

Deliberate punch!

However, the other party's actions were still somewhat beyond his expectations.

The other person actually took a step forward.

Upon seeing my domineering hand, instead of retreating, you stepped forward!

Then here's a nice one for you!

boom!
Chen Qi moved forward, his left hand gently gliding across and grabbing the mechanical right arm that was rushing towards him!
Rusty robotic arms without trademarks are typical off-brand products, mostly modified from scrapped robotic arms.

This rusty steam-powered robotic arm, while providing immense strength, is also extremely easy to predict.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Qi bent his right arm and thrust it upwards sharply.

Elbow strike, a powerful and heavy elbow strike!

Iron Hand's chin was violently bumped, and his body lost its balance!
Iron Hand was dumbfounded. As a Blade Aspect superhuman, this was the first time he had used a mechanical arm and he was being treated like this.

A silent fear surged to his head, and he roared inwardly:
Courage erupts!

Courage erupts, a first-tier Blade Aspect skill that allows him to be fearless of pain and unleash his body's potential!

Chen Qi also uses skills.

A bonus skill of the Blade Body Forging Technique: Burst.

With his current physique and explosive power, he already possesses a fairly good defensive and offensive skill set.

The opponent's movements were clearly out of balance, and he had complete control over them.

He pressed the other person's head down with his hand and then slammed it down!
Boom!
Iron Hand was knocked down by Chen Qi and pinned firmly to the ground.

Iron Hand coughed up blood, staring in disbelief at the scene before him; he had been instantly killed.

Although he was a reckless man, he had learned the skill of detecting spiritual energy fields.

The Chen Qi in front of him had actually reached the first level, just like him.

He couldn't understand how someone with marine mammal disease could defeat him in terms of strength and speed.

It's important to understand that people in the later stages of marine mammal disease experience difficulty even standing up as their bodies are gradually eroded.

His eyes were wide open, like copper bells:

"why?"

"How can a mere robotic arm compare to my well-trained, strong body?"

Chen Qi smiled and said, then skillfully took out the Collector.

The next second, the muzzle of a gun was pressed against his forehead.

Chen Qi asked:
"Tell me, where you come from and why you're here?" Iron Hand's rebellious spirit temporarily subsided, and he blurted out all the information about Captain Black Eye and the Black Rabbit Gang.

……

"I see……"

Chen Qi was deep in thought.

Captain Blackeye went to Moonstone City to inquire about his whereabouts.

Finding someone on the vast ocean is by no means an easy task.

The fact that they were able to reach Moonstone City in such a short time shows that Captain Blackeye and Little Raven were working very hard to catch him.

This was the first time in his life he had been pursued like this.

There are two key points in the other party's information.

First, judging from the current situation, Captain Blackeye did not inform the Black Whale Crew of his message, but instead kept it under control inside their Sawshark.

The Black Rabbit Gang's higher-ups asked hundreds of times, but Captain Blackeye only ever gave the excuse of stealing.

The captain wanted to keep the deep-sea hunter's treasure all to himself and didn't want anyone else to interfere.

Secondly, Captain Black Eyes had no idea where Chen Qi was, or even if he was still alive.

Because they were wanted by the Navy, they had no choice but to join forces with the Black Rabbit Gang and search for the person cautiously.

Overall, he is currently in a relatively safe situation.

However, if the other party can confirm that he is alive, it is possible that Captain Blackeye will inform the Black Whale Crew.

If the Black Whale Gang were to be deployed, the situation would change completely.

The Sawshark is just a small boat under the command of the Black Whale Gang, and there are many top-tier monsters on board.

These monsters are far beyond what Teacher An and the lighthouse keeper can handle.

The deep-sea hunter's treasure map he possessed alone was enough to mobilize half of the Black Whale Gang.

Chen Qi smiled helplessly. Is this what it feels like to be popular?

However, there is some good news.

His next goal is the treasure of the deep-sea hunters and playing with the sea creatures; he won't be staying in Maro Town for a long time.

Through deep-sea affinity, he can obtain many rare ingredients from sea creatures!

He's about to go out and have some fun!
Even if the Black Rabbit Gang knew that his hometown was Marlowe, it would be very difficult to catch him.

Captain Blackeye and Little Raven can only rely on luck to find him.

Chen Qi smiled and said to Tie Shou:

"Thank you for the information."

"By the way, take out your valuables. I have no interest in searching your body."

Iron Hand Vegetable is a bit weak, but it can be equipped with a robotic arm, so it must be quite fat!

Iron Hand reluctantly pulled a card from under his clothes:

"It's all here."

Cards? Skill cards?

Chen Qi picked up the card; on the back of the card was a picture of a backpack.

A prompt appeared before his eyes.

[20 Series Backpack Card:]

Description: Produced by White Tower Federation White Dove Travel Company, a must-have for storing money at home and traveling.

Capacity: 1*1*2 (rectangular prism, two cubic meters)

Backpack card...

Chen Qi was immediately shocked. He never expected to encounter such a good thing!

Backpack cards are cards for storing items, manufactured by a large corporation in the White Tower Federation using special crack technology.

In the Kingdom of Bei, even the most basic one-cubic-meter backpack card costs at least 300,000 Bei!

For every additional cubic meter, the price increases several times over.

This backpack card right now is worth at least a million coins!
Most importantly, White Dove Travel, the company that produces backpack cards, likes to use scarcity marketing. Even though production is sufficient, it controls the annual supply to a certain number.

Therefore, this backpack card could potentially fetch a price of two or even three million shell coins!

"Robbery, no, self-defense, is this how much money you can make...?" Chen Qi couldn't help but sigh, "I only made so little money going to the Rift."

He can't carry a backpack forever; in many situations, that would severely reduce his combat effectiveness.

Chen Qi glanced at the front of the backpack card.

The stored items will be displayed on the front of the backpack card.

It contained a collection of knives, a Collector's Gun, over two hundred bullets, and lubricant.

These things cost a lot of money.

Make big money!

Chen Qi took the backpack card and looked at the iron hand beneath him.

They weren't chasing him; they were giving him money and equipment.

At this moment, the iron hand, which had been pinned to the ground, began to stir. It asked:

"I've answered your question. I'm very curious, what exactly did you, a country bumpkin, take that made Captain Blackeye so anxious!"

Iron Hand watched Chen Qi grit his teeth. In secret, his mechanical arm moved slightly, emitting a little steam.

Chen Qi didn't speak, but silently took out the black knife.

Looking at the ashes of the blade, Iron Hand's pupils suddenly contracted!

That was none other than Captain Blackeye's knife!

He understood everything. This kid actually dared to run away with Captain Blackeye's knife!

How dare you!
A flicker of excitement flashed in his eyes. If he could get his hands on this knife, he could live a carefree life for a long time.

The mechanical arm of the Iron Hand emitted a large amount of steam. He wanted to take advantage of the moment when the other party took out the knife to launch a sneak attack and then steal the knife and run away.

boom!
With a gunshot, before he could even swing his mechanical arm, a large amount of blood flowed from his chest, and his consciousness gradually faded.

"call!"

Chen Qi pulled the trigger on the collector.

No matter the world, human traffickers are people who deserve to die.

The other party was a wanted criminal; his actions constituted perfect self-defense.

The sounds of fighting had already caught the attention of many people nearby.

Chen Qi grabbed Tie Shou's right leg and pulled him out of the boathouse.

The other party is a wanted criminal, and he can be sold for money!

call!
Upon hearing the gunshot, An jumped off the merchant ship with the agility of a cat.

"What's wrong! Are you alright?"

She rushed to Chen Qi and asked with concern.

When she saw the corpse in Chen Qi's hand, her pupils suddenly contracted.

Before I knew it, it was already the end of the month, and I've been writing this long, but the witch still hasn't appeared yet. The pace is a little slow.
