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

Chapter 141 Bloody Bounty Order
Caw, caw, caw! A flock of black crows dropped the bounty posters from the sky and then quickly flew away.

Suddenly, a commotion arose at the port.

"Hey, are you kidding me? Who sent this bounty poster in here?!"

"They actually dared to put the Black Whale Gang's bounty on our naval territory."

"Go and catch the person who distributed the bounty notice!"

"??"

Chen Qi removed the bounty poster from his face, which had been covering his vision, and opened it.

The bounty poster was made of parchment, and on the back was drawn a deep red, blood-red shark, which also smelled strongly of blood.

This format is not a Navy bounty poster, but a bloody bounty poster from the Black Whale Gang!

Bloody bounties offer greater rewards than regular bounties, and you can claim the bounty without complicated procedures.

The Black Whale Team will fulfill its promise immediately and give the utmost respect to those who complete it.

Even if the one who completes the task is an enemy of the Black Whale Gang, they will still provide a reward.

In the past, Palu, the captain of the Ice Demon Pirates, and Little Red Riding Hood of the Blood Blade Pirates, had repeatedly sought rewards from the Black Whale Pirates.

On the high seas, the Black Whale Gang's bloody bounty posters are far more convincing than the incredibly troublesome Navy bounty posters.

In the Witch Sea, the last people wanted by the Bloody Bounty were Little Red Riding Hood of the Blood Blade Pirate Crew and the Mechanic of the Ice Demon Pirate Crew.

And all of these people are prominent figures in the Witch Sea!
Chen Qi's mouth opened slightly.

There are only two people listed on this bounty.

He and the Flower Witch!

If the Flower Witch can be captured, the bounty is as high as 50 million coins, and the Black Whale Gang also promises to give her a fourth-tier legendary class card!
The bounty for him is as high as 30 million. In addition, the Black Whale Gang promises that as long as he is captured, they will also give him a Tier 3 professional card!
In addition, it is different from the Navy's bounty posters.

This bounty notice emphasizes one point:
Capture alive!

If they capture a corpse, the Black Whale Gang will not give any reward; instead, they will devour it alive.

"Captured alive? Is it that serious...?"

A smile appeared on Chen Qi's lips.

Even though Captain Blackeye didn't reveal his secret, he still became a wanted person by the Black Whale Gang!

The Flower Witch possesses the secret knowledge of the Witch Sea, therefore, the Black Whale Gang desires a living witch!
But why should I live?
I paused to think for a moment at the start of the morning.

The most likely possibility is the Touch of Ember, a lost piece of equipment. Perhaps someone recognizes this rare item.

Secondly, it's because of his performance on the high seas.

They wanted Chen Qi to join the Black Whale Gang and become one of them.

Neither possibility is good news... Chen Qi threw the bounty poster into the sea and started the engine.

At least for now, the Black Whale Gang doesn't know his true identity.

Chen Qi wasn't scared; instead, a faint smile appeared on his face!

Since we're already in the midst of this storm, instead of running away, let's embrace it!
Let the storm rage on!

Chen Qi started his small houseboat and headed towards his White Tree Base in the near sea.

Unbeknownst to him, a familiar gaze was fixed on him.

The young, dark-haired girl sat on a wooden crate, turned her head, and looked at the small houseboat sailing away into the distance.

As she gazed at the departing figure of the small houseboat owner, she felt a sense of familiarity.

She blinked her bright, large eyes:

No, he couldn't be alive; he's already dead.

Besides, even if he were alive, how could a sickly person like him possibly be here?

The black-haired girl opened the Black Whale Gang's bounty poster and muttered to herself:

"What a pitiful fellow, being targeted by that old lady, poor witch, poor black hunter."

She shook her head; many things were beyond the control of a small doctor like herself.

Then, she let out a long sigh and boarded the ship bound for Siren Island:

"The weather should be nice today, but it's a pity I didn't get to have any barbecue before I went back."

……

……

On the vast ocean, a storm, like an enraged beast, is raging and wreaking havoc.

The sky, which had been tinged with the last rays of the setting sun, was now swallowed up by thick, dark clouds, turning it a deep, dark gray, as if splashed with ink.

The rain poured down relentlessly, as if trying to engulf the entire world in this endless curtain of rain.

An unprecedented storm!

Chen Qi stood on the deck, holding a bucket, and kept pouring water from the boat into the sea.

As he left Siren Island, a special notification appeared before his eyes.

You have completed your mission – Traveling Assassin:
Description: O traveler, you have completed a journey with a witch!
Travel Rating: A (You ventured deep into the legendary Siren Gorge and encountered the legendary Siren.)
Reward: 3000 Spirit Points. He successfully completed his Tier 2 class quest.

3000 spiritual points, a huge income!

However, at this moment, Chen Qi had no time to celebrate the completion of his mission.

Because his little houseboat was about to sink!

This storm is powerful enough to swallow up small houseboats!
The houseboat is being relentlessly battered by the waves!
Such huge waves are simply too much for small boats to withstand.

Chen Qi could only try to find a way to remedy the situation.

"Number One, Number Three, Number Four, stabilize the ship!"

"Little green algae, stop singing your rain-praying song! The storm is fierce enough already!"

"Sea Cloud, come back here! Stop pretending to be a dark cloud!"

The deep-sea creature clung to the small houseboat, constantly trying to maintain its balance.

Chen Qi did everything in his power, hoping to weather this storm.

This was the first time he had encountered such a severe storm!

We absolutely, absolutely must weather this storm!
"I can pull through!"

Chen Qi shouted.

The moment the words were spoken, a tremendous roar was heard!
"..."

Chen Qi gradually stopped what he was doing and looked down at his feet.

Some scalding hot smoke rose from beneath his feet!
A delicious, caramelized aroma!

"..."

The speed of the houseboat dropped instantly!

Chen Qi brushed his soaked hair back.

His little houseboat's engine finally exploded! Exploded!
House seemingly endless rain……

Unexpectedly, he encountered such bad luck right after leaving the Flower Witch.

"Am I just unlucky...?"

Chen Qi leaned weakly against the boat, looking at the torrential rain.

If the Flower Witch were here, she could perform a magic trick for him.

Sigh, it's the first day I've missed the Flower Witch.

Chen Qi sighed and took out the sea chart of the Ice Demon Pirates.

His current location should be on the edge of the near-shore area.

Now that the engine is broken down, he can only use the backup engine, the 'Water Sprite Engine'.

Given the water spirit's current condition, it will take him at least three days to return to Moonstone City.

No, it might be five days...

Chen Qi shook his head.

If he stays on the small houseboat for three days, he will definitely go crazy, and might even do strange things to the deep-sea spirits.

Although small houseboats are fast, their ability to withstand storms and attacks is extremely poor.

"Once we get back, we'll have to upgrade the ship..."

"We should look on the bright side; it's impossible for things to get any worse, right?"

Chen Qi comforted himself.

Then, the next second, he heard a series of booming sounds in his ears!

A huge merchant ship gradually appeared behind him.

Chen Qi immediately stuffed the small green algae into the sea, then looked up at the enormous merchant ship that resembled a mountain peak.

Even in the midst of a raging storm, it still stands tall!
As the distance between the two ships gradually closed, the enormous travel ship became increasingly clear in Chen Qi's eyes.

Chen Qi's gaze shifted upwards.

The people on deck were busy, wearing raincoats and helmets, doing their best to cope with the storm.

In an instant, a busy blond sailor noticed poor Chenqi.

However, before Chen Qi could even speak...

The sailor, his face filled with terror, shouted at Chen Qi amidst the storm:
"Brother! Run! The ghost ship is catching up!"

"????"

Thank you all for subscribing and voting! A huge thank you!

P.S.: I've been besieged by various things at school lately (especially that awful thesis), so updates have been a bit late. Sorry.
