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

"Okay!"

Chen Qi didn't hesitate and tossed his long-unused, tattered little houseboat overboard.

His current strength was insufficient compared to some, yet more than enough for others.

And he had many plans for his next course of action.

However, charging directly into the Sea God Pirate Group's territory with the Ghost Ship would be too conspicuous.

Pretending to be a chef and using the small houseboat to enter the Sea God Pirate Group's waters would be much more stealthy.

Of course, if he could blend in naturally, that would be an even better option.

As for taking care of the Ghost Ship, Chen Qi had also thought of a temporary plan, which was the Water Elf No.3.

Chen Qi had taught No.3 everything from sending distress signals to starting the engine and turning the ship's bow!

In case of trouble, No.3 would send a message to the machine inside the small houseboat.

Now, the once timid No.3 could be considered an excellent little captain of the Ghost Ship.

If No.3 couldn't handle the task, he could simply leave it to his first mate and pharmacist, Fen.

"I'm stuck with my class change task right now, so making contact with the lighthouse keepers of the Sea God Pirate Group is of utmost importance."

As long as he could take out a mutated lighthouse keeper! All problems would be solved!

The lighthouse keepers of the Sea God Pirate Group were in charge of dock safety and the comings and goings of ships.

Therefore, finding a lighthouse keeper was not a difficult task.

The key was how to approach them, as each lighthouse keeper was under strict protection.

"Do I assassinate them, or find a way to replace them?"

Chen Qi mused, falling into indecision.

Right at that moment, the sea beneath his feet emitted an unusual sound!

Before he could react, a tentacle grabbed his leg.

"???"

Chen Qi blinked.

Tentacle grass, a type of special plant hidden beneath the sea, attacked any creature that entered its territory.

Once entangled, one would continuously have their energy drained! It would be impossible to circulate Spiritual Power for a short time!

This was a creature with extremely strong control abilities, and once afflicted, one's combat prowess would greatly diminish!

"Fen!"

Chen Qi immediately alerted Fen.

Tentacle grass often numbered more than ten!

With him restrained, Fen would be next!

If Fen were caught, they both would suffer severe injuries from the relentless thrashing tentacles.

"I'll do my best!"

Fen reacted immediately, her Spiritual Power sensing completely unable to detect the tentacle grass beneath her feet.

However, the tentacle grass moved abnormally fast, and Fen was still a step too slow.

Splash!

Two slippery tentacles emerged from the water, reaching for Fen's fair feet and arms...

Then, just as the tentacles were about to reach Fen's feet, they suddenly halted, twisted a bit, and abruptly switched directions.

The tentacles ignored Fen and surged toward Chen Qi.

"..."

"..."

Why are they only grabbing me? Why not the Flower Witch?

That's not right!

Chen Qi was suddenly startled as three tentacle grasses firmly gripped his feet, rendering him unable to break free for a moment.

What a forceful grip! After Smiling Moon, these guys have stepped up a level!

"This thing is troublesome..."

Chen Qi pulled hard at his feet.

Theoretically, with his perception, he shouldn't be unable to react to a normal tentacle grass attack...

Wait a second...

Chen Qi paused abruptly, suddenly considering a possibility.

This was a man-made trap!

The tentacle grass trap was a tactic the Sea God Pirate Group took pride in!

Legend had it that the famous Carol was once caught by this trick and blackmailed with a photo by Perle from the White Dove Newspaper.

"Hide! It's a trap!"

Chen Qi immediately commanded.

"???"

Upon hearing this, Fen immediately jumped into the water and hid. Enjoy more content from empire

And soon, a large battleship, stirring up massive waves, arrived at the reef with an imposing presence.

On the prow, a pirate whose back was emblazoned with the emblem of the Sea Goddess, could barely contain the excitement on his face as he rubbed his hands:

"These tentacles! Praise the Sea Goddess! We've caught a big one again!"
