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

Chapter 446 Giving Big White Hair a Surprise!
An carried the box, closed the bronze gate, and walked through the tower's steps to the vast port of the Tower of Books.

"An, long time no see! Going on another mission?"

“Ann, thank you for speaking to the Book Saint for me before, and getting her to agree to the plan to research Black Blood.”

"An, how about some barbecue?"

"An! Would you like to come to our victory celebration banquet against the Blackblood Empire?"

"An, I heard you're related to the Black Hunters?"

She is a celebrity in the Tower of Books; almost everyone in the Tower of Books knows her.

An, holding the box, smiled slightly at everyone and nodded.

Soon, she saw a sleeping, pitch-black dragon above the harbor.

Chen Qi and the little crow leaned against the near-shore overlord, looking extremely anxious.

"How about it?"

Chen Qi asked.

An handed the box to him with both hands:
"All done, we can set off now."

So light… Chen Qi lifted the suitcase.

He never expected that the Saint of Books would fall into their hands so easily.

The operation went much more smoothly than he had imagined.

"This scoundrel of a saint is too easy to kidnap..." Chen Qi thought to himself, whistling to awaken the near-sea overlord, preparing to return with the Saint of Books.

The three of them boarded the back of the near-shore overlord almost without hesitation.

"Are you two leaving?"

Suddenly, an old voice rang out.

Chen Qi turned around and looked at the people at his feet.

Then they saw an elder dressed in a white robe, smiling slightly at them.

The Tower Master of the Tower of Books!

At this moment... Chen Qi's pupils contracted.

Then, the tower master turned his gaze to the box and asked:

"Black Hunter, do you know my beloved teacher, the great Saint of Books?"

"Could it be that the Tower Master has sensed the flow of the Book Saint's spiritual energy?" Chen Qi asked.
"what happened?"

The tower master smiled slightly:
She made an important decision!

"Black Hunter, in gratitude for your help, the teacher has agreed to give you the most precious treasure of our Tower of Books as a reward."

After saying that, he suddenly pulled out a skill card from his pocket, a lantern that radiated starlight.

"She agreed to your request!"

After speaking, the tower master handed the two items to Chen Qi.

This is… Chen Qi’s pupils contracted.

He never expected that the Tower of Books could be so efficient.

Without a doubt, both of these are top-tier treasures.

Chen Qi looked at the card.

In the very center of the card is a pure white doll, and a crack is slowly being torn open above its head.

[Radiant Visualization Method:]

Rank: Fifth Rank, Saint-level Meditation Method.

Description: Look up, tear open the top of your head, and we will glimpse a crack in the light.

Nature/Appearance: Lamp, Book
effect:

Wisdom of Radiance: After learning this skill, your inspiration will be greatly enhanced, and your spiritual perception range will be greatly increased. Based on the spread of your spiritual energy, you can perceive a range of up to 5,000 meters with yourself as the radius.

Foresight (Active): A rift of light reveals itself to you. Once opened, your spiritual perception will be able to predict every action of your enemy one second from now. Everything will be under your control.

Chen Qi looked at the card.

Visualization is also another name for advanced meditation techniques.

To master Azure Pastoral, the fifth-tier Lamp or Mind Meditation technique is essential.

Only by mastering the fifth-order meditation method can he sublimate his spiritual power and reveal the Azure Pastoral Domain.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Qi looked at the second item.

This is a lantern, but the entire surface of the lantern is covered with a faint starlight.

[The Little Star Lamp:]
Nature/Appearance: Lamp, Flower
Type: Reward from a hidden B-rank rift level, a unique item from the Cursed Rift.

Description: Just as the apocalypse foretold, stars fell from the sky, bringing final destruction.

Effect: Under the unique light of this rift, your spiritual energy source will increase significantly. If you are bathed in starlight for a long time, your spiritual energy source will receive a permanent small bonus.

Note: This item is cursed with the 'Doomsday Collapse Coordinates' and requires strict containment. Without containment, this star will cause a massive fall of stars, relentlessly bombarding the item and causing horrific destruction. (Note: Some of the fallen stars can be used to create Demon Stars that permanently enhance your spiritual energy source.)

Chen Qi looked at the item.

A unique item dropped in the hidden B-rank rift.

As a unique item with a crack in the lamp's phase, it is undoubtedly extremely powerful despite being cursed.

It can provide extremely powerful auxiliary effects for those who use lamps!

However, Chen Qi's purpose was not to use the item.

He needs to use the Rift Workshop to transform the unique Rift of the Lamp into something that enhances the source of spiritual power, in order to materialize the domain.

Without the help of the Tower of Books, he would need to venture into the A-rank rifts to have a chance of obtaining the unique item of the Lamp Phase.

Chen Qi accepted two items:

"Thank you, Tower Master."

The tower master let out a long sigh:

"It's nothing, it's just the payment I should get. Oh, by the way, Black Hunter, there's one more thing..."

"what?"

The tower master sighed deeply, looking even older.

"Black Hunters, if you discover an antidote for the Black Blood Poison, never forget the Tower of Books. Although this is just my intuition, I'm afraid even my teacher, the fifth-tier body of the Saint of Books, couldn't ignore this terrifying, borderline poison. This is a true catastrophe..."

The antidote for the Black Blood Poison… Chen Qi said with a smile:

"of course."

Upon receiving an affirmative reply, the tower master breathed a sigh of relief.

He talked with the chief pharmacist all night, and they were powerless against the blood of the black whale.

Meanwhile, despite the chief pharmacist's best efforts, he was unable to remove the marginal power rooted in the blood from even one patient.

If the Blackblood Empire were to use certain special items to trigger the Blackblood Poison within their bodies, it would inevitably lead to the collapse of their entire Tower of Books.

Faced with this unknown threat, the Black Hunters are their only hope.

An also waved his hand and said:
"Master, my teacher was recently injured. She hopes that I can also go to Moonstone City for some training and return soon."

"Um……"

The tower master placed his hand on his chest and waved goodbye.

"May we forge brilliance together on the high seas, and in the name of my teacher, in the name of the White Pagoda, may your voyage be blessed."

"goodbye……"

Chen Qi placed the box on the head of the near-shore overlord and then whistled.

Fifty Black Sea Elephants, the Moon Dragon of the Light Sea, and the Twelve Tentacles of the Deep Sea awaken from the ocean and begin to move…

Amidst the roar of the tsunami, Chen Qi, accompanied by the Sage of Books, headed towards Moonstone City.

……

……

On the largest island in the Moonstone Islands, near Maro town.

On the island, the Ice Demon Pirates and the Sea God Pirates' hammer-wielding engineers, a total of five hundred people, are building the basic infrastructure of the shelter.

With sufficient manpower, the island's refuge has begun to take shape.

Beneath the island lies a huge basement.

This basement was the prototype of the Rift Workshop.

At this moment, Bri, the hammer-wielding mechanic of the Ice Demon Pirate Crew, and the Ice Witch are building the Rift Workshop.

Bree looked at the Rift Workshop in front of him. Thanks to the large amount of anti-magic crystals brought by Chen Qi, the Rift Workshop had already grown to a considerable size.

It's like a giant black box; inside, it can even withstand the release of a fourth-order power!

However, their next step is to strengthen the defenses of the entire workshop...

Only by possessing the strength to withstand the power of a fifth-order force can a truly complete Rift Workshop begin.

This requires injecting the highest-level runes into the magic-suppressing crystal—

"It's simply impossible..." Brie couldn't help but feel that her power was limited.

Engraving runes on the anti-magic crystal was beyond his common sense and the scope of his spiritual power.

Brie glanced at the Ice Witch and asked:
"Witch, what should we do next?"

They've reached their limit by doing this much.

The Ice Witch stroked her chin and said:

"I'm thinking..."

"I'll think about it too."

Brie touched his chin.

In ancient times, it was through a little thought that great mathematicians were able to build one miracle after another.

Give them one night, and they will surely create a miracle!
Three hours passed.

Palu, who had moved the anti-magic crystal to the Rift Workshop, asked:
"Gentlemen, how is the situation?"

The Ice Witch asked:

"Well, Brie, do you have a solution?"

"Hmm, I've got it... If I have a magic-suppressing crystal that has already been engraved with runes, I can extract the rune patterns inside and create a magic-suppressing crystal with engraved runes."

"..."

The Ice Witch remained silent.

This is the limit of their knowledge and skills.

"As expected, we still have to resort to unconventional methods..."

"Ice Witch thought to herself."

Without the Rift Workshop, their power growth would be severely limited.

Without powerful rift weapons, it's impossible to resist the forces at the edge.

If all else fails, they'll have to kidnap the mechanics of the Steam Hand.

"By the way, Palu, is there something you need?"

"The Ice Witch asked."

Paru was in charge of building the shelter and participating in the Rift to collect the materials they lacked.

But today, unusually, he came to the Rift Workshop.

Paru said excitedly:

"Because the Black Hunter has returned, Witch."

"Little Black Hair!"

The Ice Witch raised an eyebrow and said with delight.

"Ahem, I've lost my composure. I'm not really happy..." She tried to suppress her joy and looked towards the entrance.

There, Chen Qi was carrying a box, with a little crow beside him.

Moreover, there's an extra little white-haired guy with blue eyes!
Another woman... The Ice Witch frowned.

Witch! Ann felt her chest trembling:

"Witch, Witch, hello... I am Anne, a little mage from Maro Town. I've heard your legend since I was little..."

She had heard of the Ice Witch since she was a child; she was the miracle of the Witch Sea!

At its peak, its power was enough to rival the mythology of the Kingdom of Be.

The Ice Witch is her idol!

She never imagined that one day she would actually meet the Ice Witch!
"Hello, Miss Mage."

The Ice Witch raised her head and smiled slightly.

Then, she looked at Chen Qi with a reproachful expression:
"By the way, Qi, you went to the Tower of Books in the Sea of ​​Rifts, right?"

"Yes."

Chen Qi replied.

She had already heard that Chen Qi had helped the Tower of Books resist the Black Blood Empire's surprise attack and that a battle between saints had taken place.

Thankfully, she's alright... The Ice Witch rubbed her forehead, her brow furrowing slightly:
"This is too dangerous. What if we encounter blood hunters, or even the Whale Father..."

Chen Qi smiled slightly and threw out a large amount of Black God's Soldier potions and armor made of black blood from his backpack card.

This is… The Ice Witch was slightly startled.

Such a large amount of black whale blood is enough for Finn to conduct research on an antidote for the Black Blood Poison.

The Ice Witch said:

"Well done... Never mind, you didn't ask that Book Saint for anything, did you? Or did you exchange something for some kind of promise from her?"

In fact, she and the saint of books were old acquaintances.

Memories kept surfacing in the Ice Witch's mind.

At that time, there were not many gifted hammer-wielding extraordinary individuals on the high seas.

Once, in order to fight against the evil spirits beyond the edge, she sought out the Book Saint, who was only fifteen years old, to forge a rift weapon called 'Evil Spirit Slayer'!

Despite the significant timeout, the Saint of Books still told her:

"Witch, you and I are both strong warriors who have defeated death. In this long life, why should you care about the insignificant passage of time like those mortals?"

The Book Saint did not complete the forging of the weapon until the Book Witch was one hundred years old.

Eighty years!
The evil spirits on the edge have already been killed three times by the Ice Witch.

Because of this incident, the Ice Witch at her peak single-handedly stormed into the Tower of Books, pinned the Saint of Books against the wall, and beat him mercilessly.

At that time, the five thousand hunters of the Tower of Books, the navy of the White Tower Federation, and the Ice Witch were completely disregarded!
She showed the entire ocean what the true methods of a witch are.

Unfortunately, in the end, this matter alarmed the grandfather of the Book Saint, the Lord of the Lighthouse, the pinnacle of the Lighthouse Hunters of the White Tower Federation.

Finally, under the radiance, the Ice Witch was unable to defeat the Lord of the Lamps.

She had to yield to the saint of books and give up lecturing her.

For this reason, the two can be considered enemies.

Even now, she still hasn't forgotten the expression on the face the Book Saint made at her under the protection of the White Tower.

However, times have changed, and in her struggle against peripheral forces, her current power is only at the fifth level, no longer that of the Witch Queen she once was.

The young saint of books at that time also became the ruler of the White Tower Navy.

"Ugh……"

The Ice Witch sighed as she reminisced about the past.

Chen Qi thought for a moment and replied:
“Big White Hair, I did indeed make a request to the Saint of Books.”

"what!"

The Ice Witch was startled.

Undoubtedly, given the wicked nature of the "Saint of Books," he would never fulfill Chen Qi's request.

"Qi, you don't understand her. She won't keep her promise, and she might even attack you suddenly..."

The Ice Witch shook her head.

Chen Qi threw the suitcase on the ground:

“I know, Big White Hair. That’s why I brought her here to prevent her from breaking the contract.”

After saying that, Water Sprite No. 3 opened the briefcase.

click-

The suitcase slowly opened, and inside, curled up, was a sleeping girl who looked like a princess.

The entire Rift Workshop instantly fell into an unprecedented deathly silence.

"Azrina..."

The Ice Witch froze on the spot, her mind going blank for a moment.
