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

Chapter 519 Spying
Daphne lifted Art's head and poured the medicine into his mouth.

Gulu! Gulu!
Art coughed twice, and strange scales instantly grew all over his body:

"My beloved Daphne, what kind of drug did you give me?"

Daphne put the medicine bottle away:

"The Great Sage's Potion, the poison of the Queen Bee, will severely erode the will of anyone who takes it."

If the antidote isn't obtained within two days, the person will be deformed into a bouncy, fat-headed wasp.

Daphne said coldly.

Although the potion was called the Great Sage's Potion, it was essentially just a polymer of the most terrifying aberration poison.

Moreover, it's a mutated virus from a hidden level in an A-rank rift.

Art felt the abnormality in his body.

Sister Daphne didn't lie to him. Even if he was a powerful fifth-level superhuman, he couldn't escape the effects of this drug without the antidote!

"Sister, we are all members of the family. Why, why do you disobey the clan leader and grandfather?"

Art still doesn't understand why her sister Daphne would go against the will of the Canary family.

In his view, the clan chief and his grandfather only wanted to save the entire clan!

The Beast of a Hundred Flowers is this very land, a god-like being.

To be an enemy of the earth itself is undoubtedly a foolish and delusional act.

From the very beginning, they should have obediently followed the clan leader's arrangements.

Daphne raised her head, her gaze like that of a fierce wolf:
"Art, do you know how many people in your family suffer from birth defects every year?"

And what were the outcomes for those patients?

Ate looked up and asked:
"Why do you ask about this?"

Daphne continued:
"20%, in recent years, more than one-fifth of the young people in the family have suffered from malformations."

However, thanks to the Canary family patriarch's cover-up, their disappearance was unusually quiet.

"Do you know what? I dug up their graves and opened their coffins."

However, each of their corpses was connected to a thin vine, and the bodies were covered with flowers.

"All of this is like the Beast of a Hundred Flowers, absorbing their power."

Digging open the grave... Fen blinked and swallowed.

However, Daphne is right.

While possessing exceptional talent, members of the Canary family also have a significantly higher probability of developing aberrations than others.

From a young age, she had seen many people suffering from severe deformities.

For this reason, Daphne has long disbelieved that the Beast of a Hundred Flowers is a benevolent being.

When Daphne was very young, she began to think of ways to meet the Hundred Flower Beast that had protected her family for thousands of years.

However, even after becoming the second in the family, she still never saw the Hundred Flower Beast.

The elders of the family promised her that she would only be qualified to see the true face of the Hundred Flower Beast if she either advanced to the sixth rank or brought a perfect sacred beast offering.

Perhaps, as Ate said, her power lies among the Beasts of Flowers, like a fish facing the sea.

But she had to give it a try.

This has become an obsession for Daphne.

Daphne glanced furtively at Chen Qi.

Fortunately, she had two reliable allies in this bold endeavor.

Then, Daphne took out both eyes.

Fen asked curiously:

"Sister Daphne, what is this?"

Daphne said:
"The Eye of Surveillance: one eye can merge into a human's eye, while the other eye transforms everything that person sees into a screen."

After saying that, Daphne gently infused her spiritual power.

A dazzling white light emanated from At's eyes, and the Eye of Surveillance was bound to them.

Daphne turned her head to the side:

"Don't worry, the Eye of Surveillance itself is not connected through spiritual power, so even a highly perceptive superhuman would have a hard time detecting it."

Chen Qi nodded.

Daphne truly lives up to her reputation as the second-ranked superhuman among the younger generation of the Canary family.

Her extraordinary resources are indeed exceptionally vast.

Daphne reached out her hand and said gently:

"How about it, my dear brother? Are you interested in helping me take a look inside the Sacred Beast's Abode?"

Ate looked up, his eyes filled with helplessness.

Use the gentlest courage to say the harshest words.

Her second sister, Daphne, was far too domineering.

With the Great Sage's Potion and the Eye of Surveillance, he had no other choice.

Moreover, Art's curiosity had been piqued during the conversation just now.

Every year, the entire art capital holds a sacred beast festival for the Beast of a Hundred Flowers, offering a large number of sacrifices.

However, to this day, no one has ever seen the true form of the Beast of a Hundred Flowers.

For many reasons, Art had no choice but to obey Chen Qi and Daphne's orders.

Ate turned his head.

Of course, most importantly, Water Sprite No. 7's Whip of Pain has not yet been lowered.

Art couldn't fathom what kind of willpower it took to withstand the lash of the whip of suffering.

"I will obey your orders."

Art looked up and said softly.

"Welcome to the team."

Daphne smiled slightly.

……

……

Noon on the second day.

After writing a letter to Paru in the morning, informing him that they could prepare to sail all the sea monsters into the art capital, Chen Qi returned to the restaurant in the manor.

Outside the restaurant, the queen bee hunters stood guard at the entrance.

Compared to Daphne's own estate in the art capital, Finn's estate was more suitable as their temporary base.

They are all fourth-tier legendary powerhouses... Chen Qi looked over.

Among them was Eileen, the poisonous bee he encountered in the embers.

Eileen bent down and said:
“My dear brother, please come in.”

The canary family really likes calling people "brother"... Chen Qi scratched his head.

Along the way, he gained almost ten more younger sisters and brothers.

He then went inside the restaurant.

The entire wall of the restaurant has been transformed into a huge screening room by Daphne and Finn.

And the content projected by that surveillance eye is exactly what Atreus is seeing now.

However, the entire wall is currently pitch black, and only the sound of At's careful footsteps can be heard.

"How about it?"

Chen Qi asked.

Finn nodded and said:

"Atlantis has entered the tunnel."

"He's been walking briskly for half an hour..."

Daphne said.

She never imagined that beneath the art capital lay such a deep and enormous passage.

"Um……"

Chen Qi took a sip of herbal tea and looked at the wall.

Crunch!Crunch!
As Art stomped and crushed bones, light finally appeared on the dark wall before him.

A young man covered in blood appeared before everyone, gnawing on a dragon's leg.

"Is he the great-grandfather?"

Daphne swallowed a mouthful of water.

The man who appeared before At was at least two meters tall, with strong muscles all over his body. He wore simple trousers and had a large number of bone flutes at his waist.

Rather than being a grandfather, he resembled a robust savage living in a primeval forest.

However, his face was quite clean, even showing a youthful appearance, which gave people an unusual feeling.

The moment he saw At, the old grandfather asked:
"Fen, there's another fifth-tier opponent, have you caught them yet?"

……

...In the dark underground, rustling sounds kept coming.

Cold sweat poured down At's forehead.

The old grandfather did nothing, but his oppressive aura was almost as strong as that of the Water Sprite No. 7 wielding the Whip of Pain!

quack!quack!
The old grandfather gnawed on the bone and meat in his hand together:
"What's wrong? Art, why aren't you saying anything?"

At opened his mouth with difficulty:
"I...I failed. I couldn't beat Fen...Fen's lover..."

"He's too strong."

Ate stammered.

Faced with that invisible pressure, he didn't even dare to lie to his grandfather.

Fortunately, he was indeed no match for Chen Qi!
"We can't beat them..."

The old grandfather asked:
"You mean, you were defeated by a fifth-order transcendent from the sea."

Art said:

"Yes, yes, grandfather, even with your Shadow Weaver King, I, I am no match for him!"

"Is this man really that strong...?"

The old grandfather stroked his chin:

"That's true. Recently, I heard from a friend at the White Dove Newspaper that a sizable rift tide has emerged in the Witch Sea."

"It's reasonable to expect that you can't beat them."

The old grandfather sat down and picked up another piece of dragon leg from the ground.

It was as if all of this was within his expectations.

Art stammered as he pressed on:

"Grandfather, aren't you angry?"

"Angry? Why are you angry?"
You lost to him because you weren't strong enough, not because you didn't complete my task.

The old grandfather came over and gently patted Art's head:
"How could I, as a grandfather, blame my child?"

The old grandfather looked at Art's body covered in wounds.

It seems that Atlantis has been through a great battle.

With so many wounds, it's clear he didn't give in easily.

After all, if he wanted to give in, he would have done so long ago, and he wouldn't have so many scars.

"Unfortunately, grandfather, I have already betrayed you..." Art was conflicted and asked.
"Grandfather, what should I do next?"
No matter what, I could never be his match.

Even more terrifying than the Water Sprite's Whip of Pain was Morning Start's overwhelming strength.

The old grandfather said:
"It's simple, I'll help you improve your strength, won't that do?"

"Increase your strength!"

Ate was extremely excited.

The moment he heard that word, he forgot the purpose of his trip.

The old grandfather said:
"Come with me, and I will have the Beast of a Hundred Flowers grant you some new power."

In the distant manor, Chen Qi, Daphne, and Fen nodded to each other.

Lady Luck was on their side, and things were going in the direction they expected.

The three continued watching.

Tick ​​tock!Tick ​​tock!
The old grandfather led Ate all the way to the deepest part of the tunnel.

As they continued their journey, more and more flowers appeared on the ground.

"This is?"

"Art asked curiously."

The old grandfather answered.

"The Path of a Hundred Flowers was once the encampment of a legendary hunter group."

arrive."

Art stopped and looked up, following his grandfather.

The old grandfather gently snapped his fingers.

Before him lay a massive cavern, over two thousand meters high!

Before him stood a gigantic entrance filled with sharp teeth!

This is a gigantic entrance that is two thousand meters high!
Even more terrifying, within that enormous entrance, flowering vines spread out and embedded themselves into the rocky ground.

Art looked up, unable to describe his feelings.

The giant vines at the entrance are part of the Beast of a Hundred Flowers!

With just one glance, he could sense the immense spiritual power that surpassed that of humans.

At this moment, Athens could truly feel that the vines of the Hundred Flowers Beast had spread throughout the entire land of art.

Legend has it that the power of the Beast of a Hundred Flowers is not unfounded!
At took a deep breath, feeling that even gazing at the Beast of a Hundred Flowers would cause a terrifying disruption of spiritual energy.

The old grandfather smiled:

"Don't be too surprised, this is the power of a sacred beast, or rather, the power of a god—"

He walked up to the Beast of a Hundred Flowers, and pressed a flower down with his hand!
quack!

Along with the sticky blood, the old grandfather directly plucked a flower from the Hundred Flower Beast's body.

Then he handed the blood-stained flower to At:

"Take this and place the essence of the flower in your heart, and you will gain unparalleled power..."

"Even Eve cannot defeat you."

"Power surpassing that of Eve..." Art looked at the crimson flower in his hand, his hand trembling uncontrollably.

Meanwhile, in the distant manor, Daphne kept taking notes, recording the scene before her.

The Eye of Surveillance can only transmit sound and sight, not spiritual power.

Despite this, Daphne could still feel the immense pressure from the Beast of a Hundred Flowers.

"Entrance, vines..."

Chen Qi looked at the scene before him.

The shape of that entrance was most likely a forbidden rift, but the body of the Beast of a Hundred Flowers actually grew out of the entrance.

"In other words, part of the Beast of a Hundred Flowers' body is outside the earth, and part is outside the crack..."

Chen Qi analyzed.

Currently, it appears that the lower half of the Hundred Flower Beast is inside the crack.

"Is it necessary to enter the rift to kill the Beast of a Hundred Flowers?"

Chen Qi thought to himself.

"Um……"

Daphne nodded.

Just then, a curious voice came from behind:
"Wow, Blackie, you actually managed to find a living demigod."

Chen Qi turned around.

Behind them were none other than the Ice Witch, Anne, and Little Crow, who had just bought books at the bookstore.

Relying on An Wujie's spiritual energy field, the guards did not stop them.

Chen Qi asked:

"Big White Fur, what are your thoughts?"

Daphne's gaze involuntarily fell upon the Ice Witch.

The person before them actually addressed the Beast of a Hundred Flowers as a demigod.

The Ice Witch bent forward and stroked her chin:

"Um……"

"How interesting! A demigod-level monster, like the root of a plant, supports this land!"

"Why is this guy cultivating these flowers? Is he trying to become a demigod?"

The Ice Witch silently watched the person in the picture, her brows suddenly furrowing.

Chen Qi followed the Ice Witch's gaze.

The old grandfather smiled and said to Art:
"What's wrong, Art? Aren't you going to make a move?"

"I……"

Art held the flower and blinked.

Just then, the old grandfather's smile suddenly froze.

quack!

One hand pressed down on At's slender neck!
He strode forward, his blood-red eyes suddenly widening to encompass the entire screen on the wall!

His eyes, when exposed to the crowd, resembled the bloodshot eyes of a giant beast!
A near-roaring voice came from the other side of the screen:

"Which bastard dares to spy on the sanctuary of my Canary family?!"
