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

Chapter 487 Black Apocalypse
Outside, a cold, howling wind kept blowing.

The shelter, in a narrow, dark basement.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

"No! Don't go!"

The little crow awoke with a start from the cold ground, its whole body soaking wet.

"Nightmare?"

The little crow wiped the cold sweat from its forehead, recalling the dream it had just had, and a look of fear appeared on its face.

She actually had a dream.

In her dream, she was kidnapped and extorted by the crazed Chen Qi, whipped, and helped him defeat the pirates of the Golden Flower Bird Kingdom.

The two were like chivalrous thieves from a novel!
I actually had such a dream... But why was I the one who got pulled?!
Even in my dreams, I can't beat Chen Qi?
Logically speaking, she shouldn't be able to do whatever she wants in a dream!

The little crow analyzed the dream and couldn't help but wonder if it had some strange quirks.

"Do not……"

The little crow sighed, clutching the thin blanket tightly, unable to describe its feelings.

While on the pirate ship, she had already thought about the two of them traveling together to other countries for adventure—

However, the gap in strength between her and Chen Qi was too great, already separated by a pitifully thick barrier.

Not to mention, Qi hasn't returned for eleven days.

Eleven days...

Each of those eleven days felt incredibly long.

The little crow lowered its head and looked at its right hand.

His right hand was covered with black pustules, wriggling like centipedes.

Black blood disease, late stage.

Fortunately, they have developed a cure.

She took out a piece of cloth and put it in her mouth.

"what--"

She bit down hard on the cloth, widened her eyes, and used a sharp needle to pierce the abscess and bleed it.

Finally, apply the medication carefully to the abscess, and then wrap it tightly with a bandage.

"Wakuwaku! (I'm so hungry!)"

Water Sprite No. 5 also woke up from her sleep, lay on the ground, and said weakly.

The little crow tried to force a smile:
"Don't worry, we'll be able to find fresh food and water today."

"Water sprite, I'll definitely give you water today."

"..."

The water sprite nodded. Having not absorbed clean seawater for a long time, it was exhausted and on the verge of death.

The little crow got up, took Water Sprite No. 5, took out the special backpack card, then went through the dark ladder and pushed open the basement door.

boom--

With a hoarse sound as the door opened, a massive black fog enveloped her petite figure.

"here we go again……"

The little crow stopped and looked at the sea in front of it.

The salty sea breeze, carrying the stench of blood, swept across the coastline, turning the last remaining lighthouse into a crooked exclamation mark.

Boom——

The collapse of the lighthouse marked the end of prosperity.

This archipelago, which once prided itself on its "azure" waters, is now submerged in murky, dark green waters, with the crests of the waves gleaming eerily, resembling the festering wounds of a giant creature.

Traces of the monster's presence can be seen everywhere in the sea.

The fog is getting thicker—

The little crow put on a searchlight and looked at the others in the shelter.

On the shelter, emaciated people swayed in the wind.

They looked at the little crow with pleading eyes, hoping to exchange it for some food and clean water.

Gold, an extraordinary resource, all money, even one's body and dignity...

I am powerless... The little crow shook its head, boarded the steamboat, and headed towards Moonstone City, the largest coastal city.

On the battered steamboat, the little crow took out a letter and shook his head.

This is a letter she wrote to her grandmother. She doesn't know if her grandmother boarded the last train and escaped Moonstone City.

All of this began seven days ago.

Seven days ago, Whale Father led the remaining pirate force to attack Moonstone City.

To be precise, it was an attack on all the coastal cities of the entire country of Belarus.

Among them, the most terrifying is the Black Whale Mist!
This terrifying fog, like an endless tsunami, struck all the coastal cities almost instantly.

All those who came into contact with the black mist developed black blood disease, experiencing severe headaches, anemia, anger, fear, and other symptoms.

They could feel the great whale eroding their souls and bodies.

Even with effective drugs, the resistance is only temporary.

In just one day, four coastal cities and all the islands of the country, with more than a million people, were plunged into utter despair.

Even more terrifying, besides causing black blood disease, the black mist has two more serious effects.

First, it's contagious. All those afflicted with melanosis will immediately burst open after death, producing even more black mist.

Secondly, it contaminates food. The black fog can contaminate food and water, and even backpack cards cannot prevent food contamination.

In addition to the Black Whale Gang's deliberate sabotage, 99% of the food in Moonstone City disappeared within a day!

Their only means of obtaining food, besides the emergency storage facilities set up in the shelter, are the cracks—

The cracks that have spread throughout the world are no longer the adventure ground for those seeking advancement in the supernatural.

Rather, it was their place of survival, their last hope!

"barrier……"

The little crow raised its head and saw a dark barrier rising high above the distant Moonstone City, surrounding the sea.

A massive black fog enveloped everything, and the highest-level evacuation order was immediately issued within Moonstone City.

However, soon, under the arrangement of the whale father, a pitch-black barrier rose up, blocking people's escape.

In addition, due to the contagious nature of the black blood disease, the entire ocean was immediately sealed off.

In the end, only 30 percent of the people of Moonstone City successfully escaped.

The rest of the people were trapped in this world filled with black mist.

They had no way to escape and were stuck in this murky world every day.

Waiting for hope, waiting for reinforcements from the Kingdom of Bei, waiting for the Ice Witch's victory—

However, in most cases, what they get is a mutated monster, a brutal pirate who has already succumbed to the Black Whale!
Famine, infighting, despair...

All of this happened in just one day.

"Black apocalypse..."

The word involuntarily came to mind for the little crow.

The world before us is nothing short of the end of the world!
This is the true power of the Edge Whale, the divine power of the Edge God!

All she could do was eke out a living in this world.

"Wakuwaku (Master, when are you coming back? I'm hungry...)"

Water Sprite No. 5 lowered its head, and the entire ocean was polluted.

If it drinks this seawater, it will turn into a mutated monster.

Turn into a wastewater water sprite!
"Soon, soon, your master will be back soon..."

The little crow and Water Sprite No. 5 leaned against each other on the boat.

"start……"

The little crow looked into the distance.

Although she said it, her hope was gradually fading away.

So much has happened in these ten days.

After the black fog descended, Mrs. Ollie, Palu, and Haye began their shelter plan.

Ann and Aslina set off to seek aid from the White Tower Federation.

Without hesitation, the Ice Witch went directly to find the Whale Father and the source of the black mist.

But so many days have passed, and there has been no news from either Ann or Aslina.

"Can I really do this?"

The little crow raised its head and looked at the note from the Ice Witch in its hand.

Before the Ice Witch left, her last task was to research the strongest special attack medicine!
According to the Ice Witch's speculation, besides the black mist, the Great Whale has other ways of invading the mind and body.

If we apply the approach to the cure for black blood disease, we might be able to develop a special drug targeting black whales.

However, under the pressure of food, the little crow's progress was extremely slow.

Is it really necessary to continue this research?

The little crow couldn't help but think of it.

There has been no news of Aslina, the Saint of Books, the Ice Witch, or Finn, the Flower Witch, until now.

The power that the great whale displayed, which polluted the entire Witch Sea, had exceeded the little crow's comprehension.

Even if Chen Qi survives, he cannot fight against the Great Whale or the God of the Edge.

The Ice Witch, Aslina, might already be dead. However, the little raven still refused to give up until he saw their corpses with his own eyes.

"We can't give up..."

The little crow mustered its courage.

Amidst a jumble of thoughts, the steamboat came to a sudden stop.

A dilapidated ruined city appeared before her.

Looking around, the lighthouse dome had been cracked open by the monster, and Noah's Wall had been reduced to ruins, with bricks floating among the rubble with the tides.

This is Moonstone City.

Aside from being a refuge, this is currently the largest city.

The black fog blocked all communication signals.

Currently, the little crow is also unaware of what happened in Moonstone City.

The only information she knew was that Mrs. Auley had not escaped by train and fled Moonstone City.

Meanwhile, the Black Whale Pirates have already invaded Moonstone City, making the city extremely dangerous.

"Number Five, let's go find food..."

The little crow stepped off the steamboat and onto the scorched earth of Moonstone City.

She needs resources, whether it's food or researching medicine to combat black whales.

"Wakuwaku (I'll protect you...)"

Water Sprite No. 5 mustered her courage and walked up to the little crow.

The two carefully made their way through the collapsed ruins into the heart of Moonstone City.

Suddenly, a fragrance wafted into the little crow's nose.

This smells like barbecue... The little crow immediately crouched down, hiding itself.

The black mist can obscure spiritual power. Within the black mist, unless one is a fourth-tier expert with an inspiration level exceeding 300, one can only observe the enemy with the naked eye.

She cautiously looked in the direction of the fragrance.

There, at the entrance to a massive D-class rift, a group of pirates in black uniforms were drinking and eating heartily.

Seven people… the little crow thought to itself.

Then, the one-eyed pirate captain shouted:

"Awesome! Absolutely awesome!"

"I told you, if you follow Whale Father, you'll get to eat meat!"

"So, what do we do after this black fog?"
This wretched place is probably uninhabitable!

The one-eyed pirate captain kicked a box next to him.

Gold rained down with a clatter.

These are all treasures they plundered from Moonstone City.

However, even the Black Whale Gang couldn't help but worry that they might perish in this catastrophe.

A pirate who looked like a hungry wolf said:
"What are you cowardly about! Would Father Whale ever mistreat us?"

Once we've amassed Moonstone City's treasures and reached Tier 4, we can leave here and become millionaires in any city we go to!

"Too……"

It smells so good… The little crow swallowed a mouthful of water.

The fissure they were guarding was clearly a large fissure that could produce food!

If they can conquer this rift, they will have a stable food source.

Seven people, all at the third rank!

It's a bit tricky, but I have to take the gamble... The little crow took a deep breath, manipulated the shadows, and prepared to launch a sneak attack.

In this apocalyptic world, you must fight to survive!
boom!
Just then, the little crow felt a soft, cool sensation on its shoulder.

"Water Sprite Number Five, don't move, we're launching a sneak attack..."

The little crow thought to itself.

However, in the next instant, she saw Water Sprite No. 5 right in front of her.

Wait, no, the one behind her isn't Water Sprite No. 5!
There were other people behind him.

A voice that was both familiar and unfamiliar to her came from inside.

"Wow, it's been so long!"

"!!!"

The little crow's heart raced, and it immediately turned around.

She saw a tall man wearing a tattered captain's hat and holding an oar, looking down at her.

Pirate General, a monster from another world, the ferryman of the River Styx!

The pirate general's strength was already greater than that of an ordinary fourth-tier superhuman.

Even more terrifying, the ferryman before them was a fifth-order being—

Moreover, it is a rare fifth-order illusory form!

It achieved its promotion in this apocalypse!
"It seems you haven't yet received the baptism of the great whale—"

The ferryman of the Styx pressed his hand down.

"Go away!"

The little crow manipulated the shadows and kicked the ferryman of the River Styx away.

However, both sides are far too powerful.

The ferryman of the River Styx manipulated the ocean currents, and a murky current suddenly surged forth, clamping down on the little crow's throat—

Damn it! The little crow felt a strong suffocating sensation coming from its neck.

To die! To die!
Just then, writhing black blood slowly crawled from her thighs up to her eyes.

The black blood wanted to seep into her brain through her eyes and worsen her melanocytosis!
"Big White Dove Flying Kick!!"

Just then, a short man riding a large white dove leaped down from the sky and kicked the ferryman of the River Styx away.

"Miss Perle!"

The little crow's eyes widened. The person who saved her was none other than Peilu, the chief reporter of the White Dove newspaper.

Even more terrifying is that the person in front of me, Peilu, actually has a fifth-order spiritual energy field.

Is Peru really that strong?
Peru got up from the ground, puffed out her chest, and said excitedly:

"It is I!"
Don't be surprised, I just cleared the Forbidden Rift and got a D-rank rating—"

Peru clapped her hands; she was also one of the players who had entered the Forbidden Rift.

Furthermore, it successfully obtained a D-level evaluation.

Thanks to the rewards from the Forbidden Rift, she has now recovered 50% of her peak strength.

"Forbidden Rift for Passing Through..."

The little crow blinked, not quite understanding at first.

Are the rifts that Pelu used to clear the level and the rifts that Qi used the same?
“Fool, you are stepping into the River Styx…”

The ferryman of the Styx rose again, gripped his oar, and countless ghosts appeared behind him.

At the same time, the seven pirates bulged their muscles, burst open their clothes, and grew twisted black giant hands all over their bodies, which was extremely terrifying!
The black whale's blessing allowed them to rival true fourth-tier power with their third-tier strength!
One fifth-order rank, plus seven fourth-order rank rank.

Not to mention, even though the Ferryman of the Styx has just been promoted, his strength is still above that of Peru.

The two little guys in front of me are nothing more than toys to be manipulated at will.

"The Void Resolve: The Tide of Ghost Ships!"

The ferryman of the River Styx gently swung his oars, and countless ghosts swarmed in like boats, tightly controlling Peru—

The attacks of the illusory transcendent beings may seem powerless, but they can easily plunge people into despair.

Peru, whose body was possessed by a ghost, smiled slightly:
"Don't worry, I've already learned the strongest mental techniques within the rift!"

"The strongest psychological solution?"

The little crow was surprised.

Isn't Peilu a lantern spirit?

Will she also achieve liberation of her mind?

"That's right, its name is the Great Summoning Spell!"

Facing the powerful ferryman of the Styx, Peru smiled faintly and called out with the wind:

"Qi, come!"

"..."

The ferryman of the River Styx turned around.

brush!
A dark shadow swept past, drawing a magnificent blade of air a thousand meters long, dispersing the black mist before them—

Its speed was so fast that no one in front of it could catch it.

Before the Ferryman of the Styx could even activate his ethereal form, his monstrous body had already severed—

The bodies of the seven pirates had been completely crushed.

The wind gradually stopped.

what happened?
and many more!

The little crow looked up in surprise.

She looked at the familiar figure before her, her body trembling uncontrollably, and stammered:
"Start, start..."

Chen Qi lowered his head, sheathed his long sword, and a smile appeared on his lips:
"I've finally found you, little crow."
