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

Chapter 88: Chapter 72 Ice Witch Background Plate



"Near the edge of the sea, so far, we're almost there."

Chen Qi, holding a map, walked out of the cabin.

With the aid of the Deep Sea Water Elf boosters, his little houseboat had sailed for an entire day.

At this moment, the daytime flames were gradually weakening.

The afterglow of the setting sun spread across the sea, the light reflecting off the water interestingly, complemented by the falling flowers drifting from Flower Island to the sea.

It was like a grand floral carpet at sea, welcoming the arrival of travelers.

Chen Qi raised his head and looked towards the distant island.

Mountains filled with flowering trees, a small town at the base of the mountains, and a simple dock.

Flower Island, with its fertile land suitable for cultivating herbs and flowers, housed nearly a thousand people—a fairly nice small town.

However, compared to the people of the Moonstone Islands, the inhabitants of this remote outlying island were more secluded and less likely to leave their homeland.

In their eyes, such remote islands far from the cities were peaceful and beautiful, and they could easily make a lot of money from tourism every year.

Of course, this peaceful life was predicated on the absence of pirates and the Crack Tide.

Chen Qi slowed down the speed of his little houseboat, preparing to dock.

At that moment, a large white dove flew across the sky, slowly descending in height, landing in front of the port of Flower Island.

It was Pelu, she had arrived as well.

Chen Qi docked the small houseboat at the dock, took a big jump, and stepped onto the land of Flower Island.

Pelu, noticing the movement behind her, looked back at Chen Qi with a puzzled face:

"How did you get here so fast? Did you also depart at night?"

After all, she had been traveling since last night, and she had flown from the sky!

Chen Qi stepped forward:

"Barely, my boat's engine is quite expensive."

The speed of the small houseboat was indeed fast.

But the main reason he and Pelu arrived at the same time was due to the booster he was proud of:

Deep Sea Water Elf brand booster!

And there were seven of them!

With the help of the Deep Sea Water Elves, the speed of the small houseboat was incredibly fast.

The only side effect was that compared to machines, the Deep Sea Water Elves tired too quickly.

After pushing for just a day, they turned into a sloppy mess!

This must be because the Deep Sea Water Elves lacked exercise, they would get better with more practice!

Deep Sea Water Elves did not need to breathe oxygen, only needing to regularly absorb seawater.

So, Chen Qi put them in the backpack card.

Later, he could summon them out just like throwing a Pokeball.

Pelu picked up her camera, took a few pictures:

"Forget it, it's good that you're here, just in time to show you how Moonstone City's most famous reporter, with her eagle-like vision and wolf-like keenness, captures the Flower Witch."

At the dock, the two of them presented their IDs, briefly verified their identities with dock workers, and then headed towards the village of Flower Island.

"It's really lively." Explore more stories with m,v l'e-m|p| y r

Chen Qi looked towards the village.

The houses in Flower Island were built of red bricks, each one fronted with fresh flowers.

At this time, although there was the Crack Tide, it was spring, the peak season for tourism.

There were many tourists.

Moreover, many people at the head of the village were discussing information.

Chen Qi pricked up his ears.

"Have you heard? That crack is going to open again."

"It won't end up like ten years ago, with a deformity rate rising to over 40%, and then running out again, will it?"

"Impossible, this time, the village chief said they've brought in an expert."

The crack revival had happened in this place too, and the crack rating of this region should be D… Chen Qi observed his surroundings while walking forward with Pelu.

Just then, at the town square, two giant statues in the central flowerbed caught his attention.

One was a Hunter holding a bone-shaped greatsword, massively tall and draped in thick Hunter light armor, his hood covering his rugged face.

The statue, made of rock, was beginning to show a layer of deep green moss, but nevertheless, it stood like a majestic hunter gazing at the sea before him.

"Deep Sea Hunter..."

Chen Qi was slightly startled; it was his first time seeing a statue of the Deep Sea Hunter.

This statue must be the legendary Deep Sea Hunter, the only being that had repelled the great whale after the Witch.

"If this one is the Deep Sea Hunter, then who is depicted by this statue?"

Chen Qi looked at the other statue.

The other statue was that of a young woman, dressed in clothes resembling a nun's attire, holding a holy book in her right hand and a lantern in her left.

She stood like a tall lighthouse, watching over the Witch Sea, both beautiful and sacred.

Bigger than the one constructed for the Deep Sea Hunter.

Moreover, it was even older than the statue of the Deep Sea Hunter.

"What is this?"

Chen Qi, for a moment, didn't recognize the figure before him.

Peru took out a camera and photographed the two statues:

"You don't know this? This is the pride of our Witch Sea, the statue of the Ice Witch."

"The Ice Witch…"

Chen Qi remembered for a moment, and memories suddenly flooded his mind.

It was that omnipresent giant backdrop!

The Ice Witch was also a quite famous character in the Witch Sea region.

However, unlike the Flower Witch who was the main character, the Ice Witch was a typical backdrop character.

During the Crack Tide five hundred years ago, as it swept across the sea, humans faced oppression by the great whale, severe hunger, monsters appeared like a tide, and people were forced to cannibalize each other.

At that time, Shell Country was deeply embroiled in a serious civil war due to the out-of-control Chuixiang Rift, incapable of dealing with the matters of the Crack Tide.

Without the support of any terrestrial powerhouses, all the residents of the sea once plunged into despair.

It was then that the Ice Witch emerged, defeated the great whale with her own strength, and saved countless people and numerous struggling families.

To commemorate the Ice Witch's deeds, the sea was renamed from Whale Sea to Witch Sea by the king's authorization.

Additionally, the Ice Witch was also an incredibly powerful Mage, the pride of many mages in the Witch Sea.

Today, the name of the Four Great Pirate Crews, the Ice Witch Pirates, is also derived from this Ice Witch.

Also, the Ice Witch had an interest in studying history and archaeology.

Thus, many major events and relics bear traces of this Ice Witch.

In many places, the status of the Ice Witch exceeds even the ancient Sea Goddess.

Especially on the islands just off the coast, it is commonly believed that the Ice Witch's statues can bring safety to their voyages.

Chen Qi remembered that there were many posts about the Ice Witch on forums.

In the eyes of most ordinary people in the New Sun World, human life has its limits.

In the deeper layers of this world, there exists a Void Lantern Death God who reaps the lives of all those who attempt to transcend the natural limits of life.

Any lifespan that surpasses a hundred years, in the Sea of Spirit, the Death God will duly arrive.

Even those with the Transcendent bodies capable of moving mountains and overturning seas cannot resist the erosion of time.

But according to various pieces of information from player forums, this Ice Witch, famous hundreds of years ago across the sea, hadn't died. Instead, she lived on like a ghost and participated in many historical events of great impact.

"Truly magnificent, was the Ice Witch formerly a warrior nun…"

Chen Qi clapped his hands, shifting his gaze away from the statue.

At that moment, having finished taking photos, Peru had already begun to look for clues about the Flower Witch.

Peru was randomly picking passersby, questioning them for information.

Chen Qi was shocked; Peru's method of finding people was indeed very direct and crude.

Moreover, her manner of holding the microphone was too conspicuous.

She approached an old woman, and took out a thousand Shell Coins:

"Grandma, by chance, have you seen a person wearing a cloak?"

The old woman took the money expertly and replied:

"No."

"…"

Peru watched her money disappear and was stunned for a moment.

Then, the old woman stood up, looked around:

"People in cloaks are everywhere. Let me help you look.

Is it that person? Come to think of it, that young lady's head was still wriggling, having quite the mysterious air."

In the open-air herbal shop ahead, there were many travelers.

And a person wearing a cloak was there, head bowed, picking herbs.

At that moment, seeming to sense the gaze from behind, she pulled down a corner of her hood, turned her head, and glanced at the two.

Upon seeing them, her hood wriggled wildly like the waves of the sea!

"The Flower Witch…"

Chen Qi was surprised.

He hadn't expected to find her so easily!

The person was really right at the entrance of the village on Flower Island!

No, wait... Chen Qi suddenly thought of something.

"Hold this for me."

Peru's eyes were determined, and she abruptly handed her backpack to Chen Qi.

She crouched down, arms hanging naturally, palms slightly open, assuming a runner's ready stance, then took a deep breath.

"My fans, it's time you see the speed of a reporter."

"Flower Witch, this time, you won't get away!"
