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

Chapter 51 I Have the Key, You Have the Treasure Chest

Chen Qi, carrying the map and the hunter's keychain, walked briskly through the dim forest.

He needs to find the hunter's warehouse and take the treasure chest inside.

On the map, there is a treasure chest icon for the Hunter's Warehouse, located at the edge of the island forest.

As Chen Qi swept around, he could clearly see the traces of people stepping on the weeds.

Branches were broken, and there were dense footprints...

It seems that many other participants had been active in this area in order to avoid the old hunter!

Suddenly, a sense of foreboding arose within me.

The hunter's warehouse... has it already been opened?

Chen Qi suddenly remembered something.

Normally, obtaining the Hunter's Treasure requires three steps: find the Hunter's Warehouse from the Hunter, kill the old Hunter to obtain the keychain, open the Hunter's Warehouse, and then use the key to open the treasure chest to obtain the Hunter's Treasure.

However, since the Old Hunter is a hidden boss, it is extremely difficult to kill and obtain the keychain. Therefore, there is a rare strategy.

If you know the location of the hunter's warehouse, you can use explosives to blast open the door and get the treasure directly.

Even without the key from the old hunter, or the map from the hunter.

However, if you're lucky enough to find the location of the hunter's warehouse, blast open the door, and then simply take the treasure chest and leave.

Of course, forcibly opening the warehouse like this will result in being hunted down by the old hunter, and the lock on the chest will be impossible to break, making it a strategy with a very low success rate.

Chen Qi frowned involuntarily.

He attracted the old hunter's attention; the items in the hunter's warehouse had most likely already been taken.

Chen Qi looked at the footprints on the ground.

The direction of these footprints is the direction leading to the hunter's warehouse!
"We're doomed..."

Chen Qi squatted down. Although he couldn't judge a person's height and weight directly from their footprints like the characters in detective movies, he still managed to do so.

However, we can still roughly deduce the body type.

The footprint was very small, and it looked like a barefoot footprint...

Barefoot?

Chen Qi suddenly thought of something.

In this crack, there would be one thing running around with bare white feet; he could only think of one.

The Flower Witch...

Speaking of which, the Flower Witch is also a hunter, and she also has a map of the island forest.

Is it possible that she saw the treasure chest icon on the map, ran straight to the hunter's warehouse, smashed down the iron door with a punch, and took the treasure chest inside?

No way... Chen Qi's scalp tingled.

It's too early to draw conclusions; we need to confirm it ourselves.

He got up at dawn and continued through the forest toward the hunter's warehouse.

When he arrived near the hunter's warehouse.

Suddenly, from the forest to his right, he heard human voices.

A woman's voice?

who is it?

Chen Qi swallowed a mouthful of water curiously, carefully stepped over the fallen leaves and branches, and approached.

The surrounding light was dim, and the trees blocked the view, so he could only hear sounds.

"Hmph, if you were even slightly smart, you would know the difference in strength between us."

"This is the last warning. If you don't hand it over, don't blame me for taking action."

"My potion is terrifying! Don't be ungrateful!"

That voice belongs to the Flower Witch!
What is the Flower Witch doing here? And why is she uttering such fierce threats?
Upon hearing this conversation, Chen Qi's mind immediately raced with thoughts.

Kill people and seize treasures!
The New Sun World is ultimately a world where strength reigns supreme, and high-level transcendents regard low-level transcendents as mere ants.

The sea, and the area above the rift, are typical lawless zones.

Despite the existence of laws, in places like the Rift, powerful superhumans can still dominate the lives of the weak.

The current conversation mostly involves the Flower Witch capturing the other participants and threatening them to hand over the treasure.

But does this fit the image of the Flower Witch?

Chen Qi couldn't help but ask himself a question.

In gaming forums, the Flower Witch is portrayed as a figure of good order, and in order to maintain her elegance, she almost never engages in robbery.

However, this may all be just a facade...

After all, the Flower Witch appears only a limited number of times in the eyes of game players, and before the time travel, the game was still in closed beta.

There are still many mysteries surrounding the Flower Witch.

Just like internet celebrities, nobody knows what kind of person is behind them.

Does the Flower Witch have a second personality?
In a sense, given the Flower Witch's strength, not directly intervening and giving her opponent a chance was already considered merciful.

Suddenly...

A cool sensation on the back of my neck when I opened my eyes in the morning.

He's hiding behind a tree, eavesdropping. With the Flower Witch's power, she could easily find his location!
However, driven by curiosity, Chen Qi still peeked out slightly, wanting to see what the Flower Witch was doing.

call--

A gentle breeze blew by, and fallen leaves brushed against him.

At that moment, the Flower Witch also looked in Chen Qi's direction.

Omg!

At that instant, both of them showed expressions of terror! Chen Qi's pupils widened suddenly.

The Flower Witch was seen crouching on the ground, using her terrifying spiritual energy field to intimidate the creatures before her.

In front of her was a pitiful and helpless little red wolf, with a piece of roasted meat in its mouth.

ha?
Chen Qi tilted his head in shock.

This legendary witch is threatening a dog—no, a wolf—to steal its meat!

are you human?

It's just a wolf. Besides, if you want to steal food from a wolf, just fight it.

Why are you threatening it?

Chen Qi couldn't help but complain in his heart, and suddenly felt a headache coming on.

He truly couldn't understand the thought processes of many people in the Witch Sea.

"Ugh!"

When the Flower Witch noticed Chen Qi, her little hands moved frantically, and several small black flowers in the shape of exclamations instantly appeared above her head!

Oh no! She's been found out! She threatened the little red wolf and tried to steal his food!
If this matter makes the newspapers, her elegant witch image will be completely ruined!

And why is it you again?
Her brain was racing.

The forest wind blew silently by.

The Flower Witch rose, remained silent for a moment, and then quietly said:
"do you know?
In the Kingdom of Golden Flower Bird, animals are regarded as gifts from Mother Earth, and the Kingdom of Golden Flower Bird also has a long tradition of animal taming.

In the schools of the Golden Flower Bird Kingdom, animal conversation is a compulsory course for many students.

I wasn't just fighting with wolves for meat; I was reviewing our animal conversation lessons from school—it was part of the curriculum.

"Um……"

Chen Qi was at a loss for words.

That makes a lot of sense.

It seems that the Flower Witch is indeed in the Orderly Good camp, just as he knew her.

There's also a touch of naiveté.

Chen Qi let out a long sigh of relief.

This is a good thing.

At least, he no longer had to worry about being threatened by the witch with a straw whip, submitting to her power, and handing over everything.

"But you're really hungry!"

Chen Qi looked around at the Flower Witch.

At this moment, the hungry little red wolf had already secretly run away because the Flower Witch got up.

The moment the little red wolf ran away, the Flower Witch remained motionless and calm, but a disappointed little blue flower still appeared on her head.

Beside the Flower Witch's feet was a heavy iron box.

The Hunter's Warehouse Treasure Chest!
As expected, the other party took it.

Chen Qi stepped forward and asked:

"Flower Witch, may I ask if the treasure chest at your feet came from the nearby hunter's warehouse?"

The Flower Witch paused for a moment, thought for a moment, and said:

"Yes, I saw a treasure chest on the map, but the chest is locked and I can't open it."

The Flower Witch was after the treasure chest from the very beginning.

Chen Qi showed the key:
So, you're looking for the keys?

The Flower Witch shook her head:

"No, I'm not looking for the key. It's most likely with the old hunter, and the rift has already been cleared, so I can't get it. I'll have to go outside the city to find a locksmith..."

"..."

Chen Qi remained silent for a while.

Didn't you see the keychain in my hand?

The Hunter's Chest is a trap chest; if you're not careful, you might fail to pick the lock and trigger the trap inside.

Only a master locksmith would dare to open this kind of lock, but of course, that would require a hefty fee.

According to Chen Qi's analysis, the Flower Witch probably doesn't have the money to pick locks.

They can divide the contents of the treasure chest.

The Flower Witch was a beat slow to react, looking at the key in Chen Qi's hand with a puzzled expression.

Could this key be the key to the box next to her?
She asked in confusion:

"You... defeated the old hunter, and you even got the key?"

The Flower Witch was slightly startled. The reason she didn't react at first was that, in her judgment, the possibility of Chen Qi obtaining the key was very low.

"That's right..."

Chen Qi suggested:
"Flower Witch, you have the box, and I have the key. How about we sit down, have a meal, and divide up the contents?"

Chen Qi took out the cooking tools from the card in his backpack.

He didn't ask the Flower Witch if she was hungry.

His intuition told him that if he asked her that, the Flower Witch would definitely answer firmly, "I'm not hungry!"
Perfect timing, let's have a meal, rest for a while, and distribute the food.

She's an elegant and mysterious witch, how could she possibly accept a stranger's invitation to dinner!
But you brought kitchen utensils into the rift? Are you here for tourism?

The Flower Witch stared blankly at Chen Qi, swallowed a mouthful of water, and replied:

"Ah."
