Witch, I'm really not the Deep Sea Ancient God!

Black Rabbit stepped forward slowly, mustering up his courage, with a determined look in his eyes, he assumed a professional boxer\'s stance,

"There is a rank gap between you and me,

you are the challenger!"

The next second.

He accelerated with all his might against the storm and threw a punch.

This punch not only combined his Qi power but also the strength of his implanted armor, crashing toward Chen Qi\'s chest like a sledgehammer.

Clang!

Chen Qi activated the Hunter\'s Eye.

With the dynamic vision granted by the Hunter\'s Eye, he successfully saw through the trajectory of the punch and blocked it with his black blade, which ignited with ghost fire.

The ghost fire, enchanted by ghost fire oil, could even damage steel.

Coupled with the black Qi, despite Black Rabbit\'s strong body-forging skill, he could not withstand this dual attack.

The black Qi and ghost fire instantly set his iron fist ablaze, causing blood to splatter!

As the leader of the gang, Black Rabbit had rich combat experience and, after years of effort, had overcome the weaknesses of his Black Rabbit-type small armor.

His speed and reaction far surpassed those of a First Order Transcendent!

He did not hesitate, quickly retracting his fist and kicking off forcefully with both legs to get to Chen Qi\'s side.

A large amount of black steam pillars suddenly erupted from Black Rabbit\'s body.

It was the overload mode of the armor!

The new Black Rabbit-type armor, manufactured by the workshop, allowed him to execute moves beyond his limits.

However, as a price, his body would sustain severe damage after the attack.

But before Black Rabbit could fully unleash his attack, a large amount of black sludge crawled onto his body, wrapping him layer by layer.

His movement slowed——

Chen Qi let out a long breath, both hands gripping the black blade, imbuing it with Qi power.

Diagonal slash!

The flaming blade cut from his opponent\'s abdomen, along his chest and neck, to his face, carving out a crimson blood groove!

Boom! Boom!

The bloodied Black Rabbit rolled several times on the deck.

Under the attack of the black sludge, Black Rabbit could not throw his punch, and was slashed down to the deck by the black blade.

Cough, cough!

Black Rabbit lay on the ground, letting the raindrops hit his face.

He coughed twice,

"I lost."

He did not get up again. From the previous attack, he had already realized that Chen Qi was no ordinary First Order Transcendent. Stay updated with m-v l|-NovelFire

"This was a battle that could not be won. From the moment we came to this sea, we had lost, didn\'t we?"

He admitted defeat... Chen Qi picked up the black blade, looking down at Black Rabbit at his feet.

"Yes."

A Second-tier Transcendent already had a formidable physique, and combined with steam armor, his true strength was far beyond what was visible.

If it were an arena without external interference, the two would have at least fought for ten rounds.

As Black Rabbit said, the moment the Black Rabbit docked in this sea, there was no chance of survival.

He was not the kind of man who would keep fighting before his death.

In this final moment, Black Rabbit had no thoughts of battle, just wanting to reminisce as much as he could.

If he was going to die, he might as well die a bit more comfortably.

Now, reconciliation was impossible.

Black Rabbit let the heavy rain wash over his body,

"So this is the sea. If I have to die, at least it\'s not in the city\'s mud."

Bloodied, he lay on the ground, coughing up a lot of blood.

The black sludge slowly crawled onto his body, eroding his flesh.

"Boss!"

Everyone looked towards Chen Qi. Members of the Black Rabbit gang mustered up the courage, aiming their guns at Chen Qi, preparing to ambush him.

However, before they could attack.

The Nearshore Dominator emerged from the restaurant, then came to Chen Qi\'s side, lowering its head submissively and opening its mouth wide.

The Nearshore Dominator had bitten into the food from the Black Rabbit ship\'s restaurant, but still found the Extraordinary Fish Bait the best!

Chen Qi extended his hand, patted the Black Ship Sea Dragon, then took out a fishing rod, condensing an Extraordinary Fish Bait.

"Good job, little Sea Dragon."

The Nearshore Dominator quickly snapped up the Extraordinary Fish Bait.

Under the torrential rain, everyone silently lowered their guns.

It was an incredible sight... Black Rabbit strained to lift his head,

"I didn\'t expect that besides that childhood encounter, I would be lucky enough to meet a top-tier monster before my death."

As a child, Black Rabbit had seen a powerful soul merchant. To meet those powerful monsters again, he would have given up all his land-based property to come to this sea.

But he never expected that a chef he thought he could easily crush would make him feel that childhood fear again.

On the brink of death, Black Rabbit turned his head and asked,

"May I ask, what family are you from? And which Hunter organization are you associated with?"

"Associated with a Hunter organization?"

Chen Qi blinked.

The other party actually asked him this question.

He was quite familiar with the settings of the New Sun game.

According to the game\'s setting, before the New Sun had risen, in a place shrouded in darkness, humanity had lived in struggle.

That era was called the Era of Darkness.

In that dark world, humans faced swarms of monsters every day, and only by hunting monsters could they survive. People who hunted monsters in that era were usually called Hunters.

Eventually, through the course of history, bounded by thirteen Nature Forms, thirteen great Hunter organizations rose to dominate the Dark Era.

In the legend of the New Sun, the strongest of these thirteen Hunter organizations traveled a long path, eventually reaching the crack in the sky and obtaining the seed of the day, igniting a new sun.

On the surface, with the rise of the New Sun and the establishment of the Six Kingdoms, the names of the thirteen great Hunter organizations were no longer familiar to ordinary people.

But in reality, even after a millennium of refinement, these Hunter organizations still held significant influence, shaping the course of the world.

For example, Shell Country, which governed the [Shell] and [Hammer], had two major Hunter organizations, the "Commerce Guild" and the "Workshop."

The establishment of cities, commercial rules, the formation of heavy industry companies, the use of city-destroyer mecha, and the promotion of official Shell Country Transcendents were all influenced by these two organizations.

These two organizations were highly bound to the royal family of Shell Country.

This was not a secret; it was a common understanding among high-order Transcendents.

The thirteen great Hunter organizations were recognized as the upper class of this world.

And indeed, there were many pathways to these classes.

From childhood inspiration tests to military assessments around the age of eighteen, annual college exams, to promotion assessments in large companies, and even wars between countries.

The roads were many, but each was extremely difficult, eliminating at least half of the people with every step forward.

This was an ascension path through a sea of corpses and blood.

Black Rabbit was no exception.

The glimpse of the Extraordinary Power in his childhood instilled a strong sense of unwillingness in him; he did not want to live in a world ruled by Transcendent beings like everyone else.

All this drove him to become the gang leader, abandon his land-based assets, and join the Black Whale Group.

In his view, the First Order power Chen Qi had shown either made him the offspring of a great family or a Transcendent nurtured by a Hunter organization.

Chen Qi shook his head.

However, contrary to Black Rabbit\'s imagination, he was neither a scion of a great family nor a First Order Transcendent specially cultivated by an organization.

The other party at least used honorifics, and he was about to die... Chen Qi thought for a moment and decided to tell him,

"I am not from a great family, nor am I from a big organization, just a young man who cooks.

If I have to say, I am a successor of the Deep Sea Hunters."

Successor of the Deep Sea Hunters? Black Rabbit looked at his affectionate interaction with the Nearshore Dominator.

Did the being in front of him really have anything to do with the Deep Sea Hunters he had heard about as a child?

He shook his head and quietly awaited his death in the storm.

Boom!

Chen Qi turned around and dodged the bullet attack.

Besides dynamic vision, his Hunter\'s Eye could also sense disturbances behind him.

Behind him, members of the Black Rabbit gang aimed a Gatling gun at him!

At the same time, someone behind the gunner took out a radio-like object.

"A wireless device? A communication tool?"

Chen Qi speculated.

The gang member holding the radio-like object looked at Chen Qi in horror and activated the communication tool.

"Grooves\' monster! If you don\'t want to face the Navy\'s wrath, you\'d better stop!"
