It wasn't someone who looked similar, nor was it a ghost, but a truly existing person...
"I..."
Little Raven's lips quivered slightly, wanting to say something, but having too many thoughts to express, they all jammed in her throat, and ultimately, nothing came out.
The ailing assistant on the Sawshark had not only survived but had also become a somewhat famous chef.
And, a Second-order Transcendent capable of fighting.
Moreover, she even kept an expensive, cute Water Elf!
Little Raven twirled her jet-black hair with her fingers and finally said:
"I need some silence..."
Seeing Little Raven abandon her odd ideas, Chen Qi put away his gun and sighed deeply.
As an executive of the Black Whale Group involved in many crucial events in the vast oceans, as long as he didn't leave the Witch Sea, their meeting was inevitable.
But after she took off her mask, was this what she looked like? Chen Qi shook his head, gazing at the girl in front of him.
It was the first time he had seen Little Raven with her mask off.
Her youthful, egg-shaped face, red pupils threaded with blood vessels, and loosely hanging, long straight black hair.
Even paired with the dark circles of a workhorse, the unhappy corners of her lips, and a bit of blood at the corners of her mouth, she was still very cute, like a sulky little black cat.
The skilled Siren, using sophisticated makeup techniques, accentuated Little Raven's facial features and covered the scars on her face, making her appear more like a misinformed, wealthy young miss.
In his memory, Little Raven was always in a masked state.
Photo fraud!
She looked nothing like the photos on forums and in the Bounty Order... Chen Qi leaned against the wall, arms crossed.
Based on what he knew, Little Raven probably wouldn't reveal his identity.
By that time, who would threaten whom was still uncertain.
Chen Qi contemplated the possibilities for him to escape.
Without taking drugs, the combat capability of a drug-test subject wasn't strong.
Even if there was no hope of defeating the opponent, with the Deep Sea Water Elf and Residual Fire Touch, as well as darkness to hide in, he could still escape smoothly.
With the Deep Sea Water Elf, even without a ship, he could live in the sea.
Was she really resurrected? Little Raven scratched her hair, still somewhat astonished.
The current situation of Chen Qi, compared to that of her former assistant, was indeed too different.
Little Raven furrowed her brow, sat down at her work desk, and slapped her own cheeks hard, turning them red.
Calm down! Calm down!
Calm down! Calm down!
Isn't it just a person who died and mysteriously came back to life? What's so shocking about that?
No, still can't calm down, what am I even doing... Little Raven's emotions were hard to calm.
She organized her words:
"Well..."
"Just call me Little Chef, or you can call me Assistant, it's been a long time, it seems we're both doing quite well, Raven... sister."
Chen Qi struggled to say the last word, 'sister'.
After Little Raven took off her mask, it was really hard for him to call her 'sister'.
But he had no choice, both by seniority and strength, he indeed should call Little Raven his sister.
Somewhat famous Transcendent chef... Little Raven got straight to the point:
"So Assistant, how did you survive that situation?"
In Little Raven's view, this was the first time she had seen Chen Qi alive since leaving the Sawshark!
This is hard to explain... Chen Qi organized his words:
"Willpower, I drifted alone on the vast ocean, finally returned to my hometown, and, fortunately, upon returning and due to the Crack Tide, I became a chef, and, fortunately, advanced to second-tier."
Willpower... Little Raven bowed her head, glancing at Chen Qi with the corner of her eye. Stay connected via empire
Indeed, navigating that small boat on the vast sea, constantly facing waves and storms, as well as monsters from the depths, was a true test of mettle.
Without strong psychological quality, it was simply impossible to survive.
In the process of fighting against sea beasts and storms, he must have grown a great deal,
"Once he reaches the shore, with his inspiration, and his ruthless approach to monsters..."
Little Raven fell into contemplation.
Although it was hard to believe, under the Crack Tide, as long as one successfully reached the shore and was a bit lucky, becoming a Second-order Transcendent was not impossible.
In the midst of the tide, even the lowest wanderer, in the chaotic sea, had a chance to become a legend, a transcendent level that even nobles had to pay a huge price to achieve.
Moreover, in her eyes, Chen Qi was indeed a promising young man.
Thinking about it, Little Raven's world-weary face rarely curved into a faint smile.
In her life, which was as disappointing as that of a rat's, parents, relatives, and friends always mysteriously disappeared from her life, becoming more and more blurred along with her memories.
Recently, she'd also encountered some troublesome matters.
Those damned men and women, Black Hunter and Flower Witch, defeated Kuang Sha, ruining the plans of the Black Whale Group!
Moreover, that despicable Black Hunter even found the Black Whale Blood and handed it over to the Bei Country Meteorological Bureau, causing the Sea Demon Gorge branch to start researching Black Whale Blood as well.
Due to Black Hunter's fame, the Black Whale Group also decided to accelerate their research on the Black Whale Blood.
The research on Black Whale Blood, puzzlingly, just got swept up!
And she was one of those caught up in it.
Her superior in the Black Whale Group demanded that she produce a higher purity Black Whale Blood within a month, to be used for a special ritual.
She really wanted to punch that Black Hunter and the Witch... Little Raven complained in her mind.
But thankfully,
a concubine she quite liked miraculously resurrected, which was indeed good news.
A piece of news worth drinking to celebrate.
Life's joys always come from some unexpected little things... Little Raven blinked, her voice softened a bit:
"My assistant, in the depths of that sea beast's cave, what exactly is in that chest?"
Knowing that the Black-eyed Captain, to now, had still kept it a secret from everyone, continuously roaming the sea, desperately searching for traces of Chen Qi, all for the item in the chest.
More than ten days ago, Little Raven thought Chen Qi was thoroughly dead, and while worshipping her mother, she also burned a flower for Chen Qi.
On the Sawshark, the Black-eyed Captain was the only one who from beginning to end firmly believed Chen Qi was still alive!
His obsessiveness even led the Black Glove to decide to temporarily revoke his captaincy.
Asking about this... Chen Qi thought for a moment and said:
"Similar to pale scale fruits, a fishing skill card, and quite a few jewels, which is why I was able to get through many cracks."
"Huh? Just this?"
Little Raven was incredulous:
"Pale scale fruits, you actually use such a rare transcendent fruit for comparison, the treasure of the Blood-eyed Wall, could it be that you got the weapon of the Deep Sea Hunter?"
"No, not at all."
Chen Qi answered truthfully.
Not telling me the truth, huh... Little Raven smiled, not delving deeper.
If it were a one-time consumable item, it would have been used up already, and it would be of no use to her.
If it were other transcendent weapons or equipment, what would that have to do with her, a drug-addicted berserk warrior?
Besides, that treasure was not hers to claim.
She glanced at the stack of newspapers on the table.
Little Raven pulled out a stack of skill cards from under her clothes and flicked through the cards:
"All right, let's continue our deal, trading these skill cards. Little boss of the Water Elf Dining Boat, you must have made quite a lot of money, right?"
