Chapter 251: Already Great_2
And Chen Qi himself had to bear the brunt of this excess surge of fury.
In the recent battle, his mind was completely blank, filled only with monstrous thoughts of fighting.
Fight! Fight! Fight!
As a result, Chen Qi had just had to take a powerful sedative to mitigate his own rage.
"Huff..."
Chen Qi exhaled a breath of vital energy and glanced at the backpack card specifically for storing items; by now, the potions given by the Flower Witch had been all used up in regular practice and combat.
If it weren't for the "mental threshold" of the Night Monster, he might even become a mindless monster only knowing slaughter.
Upgrading equipment is indeed a good thing, but clearly, the Residual Fire Touch had exceeded his ability to bear it.
To use the current Residual Fire Touch, he must pair it with consumable potions to ensure his safety.
Chen Qi gently took out a gold coin worth ten thousand Shell Coins and flipped it into the hands of the captain below:
"Thanks."
After saying this, Chen Qi left the place.
Accompanied by the sound of huge shadowy tentacles scraping across the ground, the intense beating of people's hearts gradually settled down.
At this moment, the captain, looking at the gold coin in his hand, trembled:
"It didn't kill us, and it's quite polite..."
A female Mage with round glasses hugged her body:
"The more polite the monster, the more terrifying..."
The crowd looked at the writhing shadows on the sea, speculating about the other's identity.
Until a loyal reader of the Dove Times, puzzled, said:
"Is that the long-missing Black Hunter?"
At that moment, a vast Shadow Tide struck the coastline again.
And in a distant corner, a battleship pierced through the Shadow Tide, breaking into the battlefield.
...
...
The dock.
Chen Qi took off the Residual Fire Touch and put on regular Hunter's Clothes, joining the main forces resisting the Shadow Tide.
The Residual Fire Touch. The consumption of Shadow Weaving was too great, combined with the previous battles...
At this moment, Chen Qi's physical strength was completely overspent.
Although he didn't want to admit it, he had reached his limit.
The upgraded Residual Fire Touch was too overpowering, unbearable, completely unbearable—
He had already done quite well to get this far.
Unless the Flower Witch now pulled out a brand new super energy potion for him, giving him a full physical recovery, he simply didn't have the strength to hunt down another large Shadow Beast worth over 5000 inspiration points.
Chen Qi counted his gains, he had successfully upgraded the Residual Fire Touch. Shadow Weaving and gained a total of 21100 inspiration points.
By killing Shadow Beasts, his crack rating was not at the lowest E Rank, conservatively he got a Skill Card.
It could be said that the harvest was already quite substantial—
Next, he would quietly wait for the night to end, complete the Lamp Keeper's mission, and wait for the final crack settlement.
However—
Chen Qi holding a black blade, mixed in with other Hunters, looked towards the dense tide of Shadow Beasts.
His position was in the center of the battle line, where the combined Hunters and pirates totaled over two thousand people.
And the corpses of the Shadow Beasts had piled up in nearly three layers, conservatively estimated to be the bodies of three hundred thousand Shadow Beasts.
But so far, the tide of Shadow Beasts showed no sign of weakening.
Could the Sea God Pirate Group really withstand tonight's Shadow Tide?
Chen Qi couldn't help but question in his heart.
Currently, according to available information, the Fourth Rank Legend bishops coming to support from the Sea God Pirate Group were being watched by the Navy—
This meant that the Fourth Rank Legends would not reach the battlefield tonight.
And Shadow Tide Night, as a preliminary B Rank crack without any special clearance items, its ultimate boss was not something an ordinary Third-order Transcendent could defeat.
As expected, suddenly, a blood-red giant eye emerged from the far darkness!
"Damn it! This thing has finally shown up!"
A gigantic blood-red eyeball appeared above the sea, and on the sea's surface, a massive foot stomped down, causing wave after wave to surge.
Chen Qi lifted his head and looked towards the massive creature in the sky; above the surface of the sea, a colossal figure was faintly discernible.
Standing a hundred meters tall, with limbs incredibly thin and long, for every step it took, hundreds of Shadow Wolves would drop from behind it—
Its body was enveloped in pure night scales, and on its head was a blood-red eye that emitted endless fear.
The one-eyed Shadow Giant!!
Is the Shadow Giant the final boss of the rift... Chen Qi wondered.
During the Shadow Tide Night, the most terrifying BOSS of shadows was supposed to be the Fear Weaver, a being condensed from countless fears.
Yet, among the BOSSes of B-rank rifts, the Shadow Giant was not considered powerful. Paired with large-scale weapons, a small probability of victory could be secured if Third-tier Transcendents joined forces.
In other words, it was the disgrace among the B-rank rift BOSSes.
Nevertheless, the Shadow Giant was still a BOSS, a BOSS of the B-rank rift!
With each step the Shadow Giant took, the shockwaves it released caused huge waves and tremors on the ground.
Chen Qi looked up, filled with emotion.
He was still too insignificant if faced with such a giant on his own at this moment.
If there weren't powerful weapons to stop it, half of Sea God Island would be destroyed in an instant.
The appearance of the Shadow Giant signified that the battle was entering its final stages.
At this moment, the commander with the saber blade, using an intense "battlefield command," allowed his voice to cut through the battle lines.
"The final enemy has appeared, five hundred cannons loaded with Blazing Bombs, target within firing range, everyone prepare, five, four, three, two, one..."
"Fire!!"
Boom! Under the commander's order, in the blink of an eye, dazzling pillars of flame streaked across the night sky, and five hundred powerful Blazing Bombs swept across a kilometer, striking the mountain-like body of the Shadow Giant!
Head! Limbs! Abdomen!
On the Shadow Giant's body, it was as if a chain of volcanic eruptions occurred; where the explosions took place, dark blood cascaded down like waterfalls—
The Blazing Bomb was developed by the Magic Bullet Company, specifically designed to combat Sea Beasts, one of Sea God Island's trump cards.
However, as if devoid of pain, the one blood-red eye of the Shadow Giant firmly fixed upon those below, it stepped forward, one step after another—
The earth shook as if mountains were quaking!
The situation turned dire in an instant.
Facing the oppressive presence of the Shadow Giant, those who had been engaged in combat with the Shadow Beasts began to falter, and the battle line quickly fractured—
With a casual kick, Chen Qi killed a Shadow Wolf and looked towards the distance.
Just then, high above on a distant warship, a figure soared out like a meteor, skimmed across the surface of the sea, and in the blink of an eye, stirred up wave after wave—
Boom!
Above the sea, multiple shockwaves erupted in succession!
It was like a train speeding across the sea, forcefully tearing through the river-like Shadow Tide, ripping open a wound.
"Who is it?"
Chen Qi's face was filled with puzzlement; the newcomer's aura was that of Third Rank, but the strength displayed was far beyond what a regular Third-order Transcendent could compare to.
Whether it was the movement technique for walking on the sea or the overwhelming Qi Power exhibited, both were startling.
They were even stronger than Melanie.
Boom!
Accompanied by a thunderous sonic boom, the figure stopped at the very front of the battle line.
Chen Qi used Shadow Step, while cutting down weaker Shadow Wolves, he moved forward, curious about the identity of this soaring figure.
A muscular man wrapped in blue Qi Power slowly opened his azure eyes:
"Sorry, everyone, for my late return. On my way here, I encountered a Mage and got a bit injured, which delayed me."
At this moment, the pirates couldn't help but widen their eyes in awe, as if they had welcomed a savior.
"Lord Hai Ge! Our Blue Beast! You've finally arrived!"
"Hai Ge, behind you is the Shadow Giant!"
Hai Ge—Chen Qi carefully recalled that this seemed to be a core member of the Sea God Pirate Group, the inheritor of the Blue Beast, also regarded as the future successor of Sea God Island.
He was also one of the top-ranked supernovas in the newspapers, touted as the Third-tier Transcendent most likely to ascend to Legend status.
Is this the person who claimed he wanted to kill me to prove himself, Chen Qi blinked, suddenly remembering this matter.
However, at this moment, before Chen Qi's thoughts could wander further—

Before the crowd could cheer, the right foot of the Shadow Giant viciously stamped onto land, smashing the dock to pieces—
