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

Chapter 132 Belgrade Meteorological Bureau
The night was as dark as ink, with the moon casting a faint afterglow.

The wind was strong at night. On a small island, the lighthouse, like the sun, guided ships on their voyages.

The small houseboat swayed precariously in the surging waves, like a helpless fallen leaf, about to be swallowed by the giant waves at any moment.

"An hour has finally passed."

Chen Qi brought the houseboat to shore, dropped anchor, and then secured it firmly to the shore with ropes.

After coming down from the shore, Chen Qi shook off the water like a cat and looked around at the place in front of him.

The island in front of us is very small, at most able to accommodate ten houses. Nearly a quarter of its area is occupied by a lighthouse and a makeshift research tower.

Besides his houseboat, there are many other small boats moored around the island.

These were fishermen and adventurers weary from their voyage; night had fallen and the wind was strong.

They dared not sail in the dark, so they chose to stop on this island and spend the night there temporarily.

Besides the fishermen, three people in white uniforms stood under the lighthouse.

The uniform features loose and comfortable trousers, suitable for long-term work at sea, and an adjustable belt at the waist for easy storage of various marine survey tools.

For example, walkie-talkies, spirit energy detectors, etc.

They were more like fully armed researchers than sailors.

Meanwhile, on the back of their clothes, there was a golden icon resembling a 'WIFI' signal.

The storm hammer, a symbol of order, is the emblem of the navy.

The weather tower, symbolizing courage and exploration, is the emblem of the Belgrade Meteorological Bureau.

"They're from the Belgrade Meteorological Bureau..."

Chen Qi looked at the worried meteorological bureau staff in the distance.

This was the first time he had ever met someone from the meteorological bureau.

Although the Belgrade Meteorological Bureau is called a meteorological bureau, its responsibilities actually go far beyond the simple scope of 'weather forecasting'.

Within the Meteorological Bureau, in addition to the meteorological department and the crack department, there are also the investigation department and the research department. These four departments are further divided into several smaller departments, making it an extremely large organization.

Essentially, their duty is to detect cracks in the ocean and investigate dangerous, special zones.

It is called the Weather Bureau because, historically, the appearance of cracks was considered a special weather phenomenon.

Meanwhile, under the instructions of their superiors, in order to differentiate themselves from the White Tower Federation's Bureau of Investigation, they have always been referred to as the Weather Bureau.

The only serious, large-scale, extraordinary organizations in the Witch Sea section are the Weather Bureau and the newspaper.

Now, the newspaper is stuck in its old ways and no longer absorbs new talent.

In other words, if he chooses the light-phase path, this is the only large light-phase organization he can join.

Chen Qi considered it for a moment.

Without the Deep Sea Affinity talent, he would have a normal start, and would have chosen the Light Phase principle.

Perhaps his path is to join the Belgrade Meteorological Bureau and become a researcher who ventures into dangerous areas to study the ocean.

However, there is one advantage: if Chen Qi wanted to, he could easily join the Meteorological Bureau now.

Moreover, although the weather bureau sounds like a high-end organization, their entry requirements are very low.

Meteorological departments, especially those focusing on field research, are always short-staffed and always recruiting.

Not only do they provide the five social insurances and one housing fund, but they also receive a survivor's pension!
Moreover, the salary is unusually paid weekly!

You can do it even without dreams!
Even high school graduates who know nothing can easily get a job!
Thinking of this, Chen Qi gave a wry smile.

If he hadn't chosen to become a chef, under the official arrangements of the Belgian government, he would most likely have become a member of the meteorological bureau and joined the investigation of the ocean.

Finally, it's highly likely that during his research on the ocean, he will reveal his deep-sea affinity and, at the speed of light, unleash his own ending:

Caught by her beloved doctor, she was reduced to his toy on the bed.

Chen Qi stood on the small houseboat, straining his ears to listen to the conversation of the people from the meteorological bureau.

"Are we going to sea again tonight? The higher-ups have given a death order; we must produce our investigation results. Dr. Raven, the newly promoted executive of the Black Whale Gang, has developed a miraculous potion." "Let's talk about it later. The remnants of the Black Whale Gang on Siren Island, along with the mysterious witch and monster, are currently missing. If we go to sea tonight, we might encounter that monster."

"However, deep-sea titans may be more active during the day, and we might be able to find more research samples at night."

The staff at the Belgrade Meteorological Bureau sighed in despair.

As the tides of the cracks rise, their workload increases and their burdens become heavier.

However, their research progress was extremely slow.

Even in the middle of the night, they were still discussing work.

Following their weary gaze, Chen Qi glanced at the dark sea in the distance.

The shipwreckage drifted in the wind, and waves rose and fell on the sea from time to time.

And in the deep sea, one can vaguely sense huge shadows, like wriggling branches, or like giant arms lurking beneath the seabed.

Beneath the pitch-black surface of the sea lies the colossal deep-sea Titan.

The deep-sea titan is known as a natural disaster at sea.

Although extremely dangerous, there are often very rare things found near deep-sea titans.

Therefore, this is also a key area of ​​investigation for the investigation department.

This is his next destination.

Chen Qi packed his things and got ready to start!
His goal this time is to venture deep into the waters where the Deep Sea Titan resides, in search of extraordinary materials and marine creatures that can be farmed.

However, it is clear that small houseboats are not suitable for venturing into these waters, otherwise they are likely to suffer the same fate as those shipwrecks.

At the same time, it is not suitable to light up the area, as it would be easily spotted by nearby fishermen or researchers.

Chen Qi put the kerosene lamp into the backpack card.

On the high seas, there exists a creature called the Shadow Demon. It is not a sea beast, but a monster born of darkness that can extinguish the flames of others.

Its cunning and stealth make it difficult to detect; it can snap a person's neck without them even realizing it.

Now, he has mastered the skills 'White Dove Perception' and 'Shadow Charm', so even if he encounters a Shadow Demon, he can sense it in advance and won't be in too bad shape.

He can now barely walk in the dark sea.

Moreover, even deep-sea merchants would never dare to easily set foot in the territory of the Deep Sea Titan.

Chen Qi secretly disembarked from the ship, equipping himself with the Touch of Ember.

Darkness concealed!

A thin, dark veil covered his body.

The breath, smell, and sound all disappeared above the sea, and Chen Qi entered a state of stealth.

Under the dim moonlight, unless one gets very close, even a weather bureau member skilled in detection would have a hard time spotting him.

The sea breeze howled and pounded against the boats on the island.

With a prayer in his heart, Chen Qi gently stepped onto the sea surface with the help of the water spirit.

Despite the sea breeze, thanks to his balancing skills and the help of a clever water sprite, he was able to stand on the sea with difficulty.

The skill of walking on water must also be put on the agenda as soon as possible... Chen Qi thought to himself.

Meanwhile, the little green algae, carrying the Deep Sea Sprite II, submerged to the surface, leaving only its green tentacle head exposed, and followed Chen Qi.

"Hopefully I'll be lucky and not run into Shadow Fiend or the Weather Bureau."

Chen Qi's heartbeat grew faster and faster.

He is still just a novice.

The high seas are extremely dangerous. Encountering a Shadow Demon or a researcher from the Belial Meteorological Bureau would be a terrible thing.

And so, remaining vigilant, one man, one sea monster, and seven deep-sea spirits walked toward the dark ocean where the deep-sea titans resided.
