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

Chapter 162 Sir, um...

Blah blah blah!

A sudden downpour began, and the rotten wooden planks creaked and groaned under the pounding rain.

Almost instinctively, as if seeing a monster leaping at his face, the ghost captain frantically waved the anchor in his hand, trying to break free from the slippery tentacles on his arm and get away from Chen Qi's attack range.

Relying on his own immense strength, the Ghost Captain, having taken two blows to his sternum, pulled his arm out and quickly moved away from Chen Qi's attack range.

The ghost captain regained his footing and looked at the humans before him once more.

Dense raindrops pelted its cloak.

However, despite being in their territory, he felt no fear whatsoever, and instead enjoyed the magnificent downpour!

Hoping this battle will be enjoyable... Chen Qi once again assumed a sword stance.

The ghost captain spewed will-o'-the-wisps again, pounding the ship's deck with its anchor.
"Skeletons at the bow! Strategic retreat! The rest of you, charge!"

The ghost ships are a unified entity! They can escape immediately if they encounter something they can't defeat, which is the core tactic that has allowed them to be so arrogant for so long!
However, in the midst of the torrential rain, no skeleton responded to its words.

It slowly turned its head to the side, and saw that the ghost ship was already covered with disgusting black mud.

Not only that, but a sea monster with green algae-like hair sat at the bow of the ship, baring its bloody fangs, constantly commanding ten cloud-shaped monsters to block any skeletons that tried to approach Chenqi.

Some fish emitting ghostly flames are frantically consuming the green flames of their ghost ship.

The foolish coastal overlords suddenly grew a brain and stopped fighting head-on against the cannons of their ghost ships!

In addition, in its perception, six slime-like things, wearing skull helmets and wielding skull spine knives, shouting "Waku Waku," kept breaking through one cabin after another, defeating one elite skeleton pirate after another, and penetrating deep into the engine room of their ghost ship!
These little slimes are treating its ghost ship like a castle from a fairy tale, and they're conquering all the challenges!
Now, the entire ghost ship is in complete chaos, and no skeleton is obeying his commands!

At the heart of all these strange phenomena was the human being before it.

"monster……"

At this moment, the ghost captain could only use this word to describe the presence before him.

It held the anchor firmly.

It did not expect that, with just a brief stop, they would lose the possibility of escape.

Since there's no way out, let's fight with our backs to the wall!
The ghost captain was enveloped in scorching green will-o'-the-wisps, and his spine was suddenly stretched open by the flames, making his already enormous body even larger.

Next, it will absorb the power of the energy core!
The appearance of green flames!

By absorbing the power of the engine and consuming some of the regenerative power, he regained even greater strength and speed!

It no longer considers the outcome of the battle, nor the possibility of escape.

At this moment, the only way for the ghost captain to win is to crush the humans in front of him to pieces!

"Humans, if you want to kill this ship, you must first kill its captain!"

"If you want to see it, then witness it slowly, humankind!"

The ghost captain's spine cracked as it gripped the anchor chain and, like throwing a hammer, slammed it towards Chen Qi!

With a loud thud, the ghost captain and the anchor stepped forward, like a mountain blocking out the dawn.

boom! boom! boom!
The ghost captain unleashed a barrage of attacks, including arm swings, horizontal strikes, elbow strikes, and headbutts, like a dense storm!

If you underestimate your opponent even slightly, this attack will seize an opening and shatter you into pieces!

"now it's right!"

Chen Qi swung the flesh-chopping and bone-splitting weapon in his hand, unleashing a storm of slashes!
At this moment, Flesh Cutter and Bone Breaker, having absorbed the rage of the remaining flames, has activated the Rage Blade mode. Even the most ordinary normal attack possesses power comparable to the Spirit Blade Slash.

Despite having absorbed the anger, Chen Qi still couldn't hide his excitement at this moment.

Regardless, the Ghost Captain also possesses the ability to escape from third-tier superhumans on multiple occasions!
This is indeed a worthy opponent to defeat! A worthy practice target!
Dang Dang Dang Dang!
The anchor and the blade made a crisp sound in the air.

"Die! Die ...!"

Like a mournful ghost, the ghost captain kept uttering deathly murmurs.

At this moment, under the continuous bombardment, the deck beneath Chen Qi's feet had shattered into pieces, and the anchor's power had broken through the defenses.

A tremendous feeling of drowning spread from my limbs!
Breathing and the exertion of energy became difficult.

At the same time, Chen Qi also found an opportunity to attack!

In Teacher An's course, when facing someone skilled in spiritual guidance, one cannot rely solely on spiritual perception but must depend on physical perception.

However, although he had learned it in his mind, it was too difficult, and Chen Qi did not master it well.

Although he did not fully master this method of prediction, he did learn how to use spiritual power to guide others!
The ghost captain in front of us, whose entire body is a skeleton, has no physical senses whatsoever!
Chen Qi slightly released his killing intent and spiritual power, misleading the ghost captain.

As if seizing an opportunity, the ghost captain leaned forward.

Then, in the instant its attack missed, Chen Qi slightly turned his body and thrust out his long sword, plunging it into the opponent's spine.

Chen Qi gripped the knife with both hands, raised it, and swiftly lifted the ghost captain into the air.

At the same time, the tentacles behind him also wrapped around the ghost captain, keeping him suspended in the air!
The time spent suspended in the air is the time of the ghost captain's death!

Chen Qi gathered all his strength into the blade, and then, like an arrow on a bowstring, released his power!
Blade of Fury!
Slay them all!

With a loud whooshing sound, Chen Qi suddenly unleashed an upward slash.

Accompanied by black fire tearing through raindrops, the ghost captain's body, severed in two, fell to the ground.

With the sound of bones cracking, the entire ocean area fell silent instantly.

"No, no..." The ghost captain's head kept struggling on the deck.

Gulu gulu——

The hard skull rolled down to Chen Qi's feet again.

"call……"

Chen Qi exhaled a mouthful of blood. With his current strength, it would still be a bit difficult for him to defeat the Ghost Captain using only his own power.

Regardless, he was the ultimate winner.

boom!
Chen Qi stepped on the skull.

The Blade of Fury's slashing attack not only increases power, but also inhibits the regeneration of flesh and bone!
The power of this attack was even stronger than he had imagined!
Even with the Ghost Captain's powerful regenerative abilities, he couldn't use them.

And soon, his Deep Sea Elf Warriors will pull the core of the engine out of the engine room.

The ghost captain's skeletal head twitched; as a monster born from the rift, he retained the untamed spirit he had in life.

But at this moment, in such a humiliating situation, it had no power to resist, only endless regret remained...

If they had encountered this monster a little later, if they had met the coastal overlord a little later, and if its ghost ship had absorbed enough power, then perhaps the outcome would have been different... The ghost captain's skeletal head fell silent, accepting its fate.

"Hey, little skeleton, where did you put the backpack card you got earlier?"

Chen Yong stomped hard on the head.

He remembered that the ghost captain had previously stolen the Sirens' backpack card.

The ghost captain didn't speak, but rolled silently.

It gazed at a corner of the ghost ship, a hint of fear mixed with a hint of anticipation.

"and many more?"

wrong!

Chen Qi had a vague sense of foreboding.

In a corner of the ghost ship's deck, there is still a faint spiritual energy.

Is there any other expert?

And this person actually managed to evade his spiritual power perception!
Chen Qi immediately looked towards the corner. This battle had been extremely taxing, and he didn't have the energy for a second fight.

If another ghost captain were to appear, he might even have to abandon White Tree Land.

What exactly is it...? Chen Qi looked worriedly into the corner.

However, to his surprise, he did not encounter a new Skeleton General.

In that corner, there was only a wooden barrel.

The barrels were blown over by the strong winds and rolled around on the deck.

"What the heck?" Chen Qi tilted his head, stunned.

"Ah, ah, ah, ah!"

A painful scream came from inside the wooden barrel.

Snap!
The barrel lid hit the side of the boat, and a young blonde woman rolled out of it.

She had her eyes closed, wearing a fitted white work shirt, close-fitting brown leather pants, and waterproof boots—a typical elite white-collar woman's outfit popular in Moonstone City.

However, at this moment, she did not show the heroic spirit of the dress at all; under the impact of the rain, she looked disheveled.

"Damn it, I'm going to be made into sashimi by the Ghost Captain..."

"calm down……"

Suddenly she fell out of the wooden tub, sticking her butt out and making strange noises, then curiously turned her head to the side.

At this moment, she was already imagining what it would be like to be turned into a skeleton specimen by the captain of the ghost ship.

However, to her surprise, she did not see the extremely ferocious ghost captain she had imagined.

In a painful struggle, she tried, slowly, to open her eyes.

Her eyes met those of the ghost captain's skull cave.

The ghost captain's expression was similar to hers! Equally disheveled!

Why is the ghost captain only a head left?

What happened?
"Ugh?"

The torrential rain lashed her backside, and she had a vague feeling that there was something even more terrifying on this ship.

What should I do? Can I run away? Can I still hide?
She mimicked the wriggling black mud on the ground, twisting and turning, pretending to be the wriggling black mud.

However, the gaze from the skull remained fixed on her!
After a complex internal struggle, she slowly raised her head, looked at the boots on the captain's head, and at the owner of those boots, and struggled to squeeze out a sound from her throat:

"Sir, um, good evening..."

It's not evening yet, Peilu... Chen Qi smiled slightly:
"Good afternoon, miss."
