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

Chapter 8 Emergency

Captain Black Eyes gripped his black knife tightly, slowly slicing it across the cold ground.

Chen Qi kept his eyes fixed on the captain ahead.

Just like the bats from before, he couldn't be sure if 'they' could be affected by [Deep Sea Affinity].

As Captain Black Eyes walked, he suddenly remembered something and turned back to look in the direction where Chen Qi was:

"By the way, little crow, do you have a vial of yellow needles? Did you bring it with you? I feel like I need it..."

boom!
Chen Qi's pupils suddenly contracted.

The instant Captain Blackeye turned around, a toad-shaped blue monster burst forth from the darkness, its enormous mouth full of sharp teeth lunging straight at the rickety captain's hat!
"Damn it!"

Captain Blackeye swung his knife in a backhand motion, then whirled around, forcefully using the knife to block the toad's bite.

boom!
With the toad's immense strength, Captain Black Eyes was propelled dozens of meters forward, arriving in front of Chen Qi.

The deep-sea toad is a colossal creature about six meters tall, with two blue eyes like rolling stones and a huge mouth with sharp teeth that seems to devour everything!

The moment it appeared, the entire pirate crew retreated five meters.

It looked at the crowd as if it were looking at an insect.

Although they were tens of meters apart, Chen Qi could vaguely sense that it was a monster belonging to the 'deep sea' category.

Captain Black Eyes wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and reached out his hand to Chen Qi, who was closest to him:
"Is there a cure?"

The impact was tremendous, and the captain has suffered considerable internal injuries.

"Have……"

Chen Qi took out a bottle of healing potion from his backpack and handed it to the black-eyed captain.

Captain Blackeye took the potion, drank it down in one gulp, then took a deep breath, assumed a drawing stance, and stared intently at the toad in front of him.

"Damn beast!"

He cursed fiercely, then charged out like a bolt of lightning, determined to use the black knife to slit open the mouth of that deep-sea toad!
The deep-sea toad was not to be outdone, opening its enormous mouth to bite Captain Black Eyes.

In the blink of an eye, the two clashed!
Looking at the situation before him, Chen Qi realized that Captain Black Eyes had the upper hand.

"Beast! Die!"

Captain Black Eyes roared, his muscles bulging, concentrating all his strength into the blade.

cut!
In the next instant, the blade cleaved through the deep-sea toad's teeth, then instantly tore its body in two crimson halves!
"Captain! Our God!"

"Goddess!"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the monster blocking their path be cleaved in two.

No, no, this is just the beginning... Chen Qi muttered to himself. He could feel the aura of the deep sea growing stronger!
It spread like fog.

"Damn-"

As a superhuman, Captain Black Eyes could also sense the frenzied aura that was coming like a torrential downpour.

A low, rumbling sound echoed around the cave.

The next second, a terrifying scene appeared.

In the surrounding darkness, more and more deep-sea toads emerged from the darkness, baring their fangs step by step toward them.

One, two, ten...

More than a hundred!

As Chen Qi looked around, they realized that they had all been surrounded by deep-sea toads!
At this moment, everyone's face showed a look of horror.

Their strongest captain used all his strength to defeat a deep-sea toad! Let alone them!
Captain Blackeye gripped the hilt of his knife tightly. As captain, he had to give orders in this dangerous situation.

We have no way to turn back!

The only option is to fight our way out!
"All combat personnel, those who are strong, follow me and lead the way; those who are not, follow the ship's doctor and cover our rear!"

The pirates drew their weapons: steam-powered shotguns, super hammers, giant blades...

The battle was about to begin, and the entire cave instantly transformed into a battlefield where humans and monsters fought.

Among them, the two strongest members of the Sawshark, Captain Blackeye and the first mate, charged ahead, trying to cut a path through the enemy lines.

Some of the pirates and slaves were responsible for covering their rear, preventing a pincer attack. Chen Qi hurriedly opened his backpack and took out the items he needed.

Just as the little crow told him, he was the doctor's helper and would not directly face the monster.

Chen Qi took out a vial of treatment medicine and looked at the terrifying scene before him.

The deep-sea toads are quite powerful, and even these battle-hardened crew members often need two people to deal with them.

As for the slaves carrying weapons, they only served as human shields and bait.

Under the terrifying onslaught of the deep-sea toad, the pirates suffered a large number of casualties in an instant.

"Help me, ship's doctor... Sister..."

A crew member whose left arm had been bitten off crawled over with difficulty. His arm was rotten like a bloody cotton ball, and bloody tears were streaming from his eyes.

Behind him, some people who couldn't hold on any longer also gathered around out of fear.

The little crow adjusted its mask, adopting an unprecedentedly serious expression:
"Help him stop the bleeding."

"Ah."

Chen Qi squatted down, pressed a bandage against the other person's bleeding wound, and fed them painkillers and healing potions at the same time.

A wisp of green light also appeared in the little crow's hand.

Healing spell, an extraordinary skill, consumes spiritual energy and can heal a person's external injuries.

However, this healing technique takes time, so stopping the bleeding and administering medication are both necessary.

With their combined efforts, they quickly completed the treatment of the wounded.

Unlike on Earth, with the support of supernatural powers, these wounded pirates can immediately rejoin the battle once the healing spells and potions take effect.

Nevertheless, the rate of casualties was simply too rapid...

In an instant, ten more wounded appeared where the two of them were!

Moreover, the number of injured continues to rise.

boom!
A loud noise came from ahead!

At this moment, the VIP of the Sawshark, its first mate, also dragged his injured body to their side.

He was covered in blood, and on his right arm were dark blue, writhing veins, as if several venomous snakes had crawled into his hand!
He lay down and, with all his might, said:
"help me……"

"Deep Sea Toxin!"

Chen Qi was startled. He had read in the "Guide to the Use of Marine Animal Medicinal Materials" that such dark blue veins were most likely caused by poisoning from deep-sea toads.

The little crow frowned deeply. The poisoning of their most important combat force, the First Mate, was undoubtedly terrible news.

Deep-sea toxins possess spiritual power, belonging to extraordinary abilities, and cannot be treated with ordinary healing potions and techniques.

If it weren't for the fact that this first mate was exceptionally strong, he would have been crushed to death long ago.

More advanced healing techniques and surgery are necessary...

This will take time, and she cannot be disturbed too much.

The little crow looked at Chen Qi:
"The rest of the wounded are your responsibility, and if anyone tries to bother me, stop him!"

I must remain absolutely focused.

The little crow took out her surgical instruments, as well as the special medicinal materials that Chen Qi had retrieved from deep-sea creatures:

"May the goddess of the sea and the witch of the flower bless us, and may no accidents occur during this time..."

After saying that, the little crow focused intently on performing her emergency surgery.

Let's prevent any accidents from happening...

Chen Qi suddenly felt a sense of foreboding.

Their rear had already been breached, and this makeshift medical station, containing several 'human meals,' was undoubtedly the place the monsters most wanted to be...

Chen Qi tugged at the bandage and looked back.

At the point where the breach occurred, a ten-meter-tall deep-sea monster, roaring, walked step by step toward them.
