Six Deep Sea Water Elves jumped onto Chen Qi's shoulder with a splash.
Chen Qi, accompanied by the Deep Sea Water Elves and the little green algae that had finished singing, pushed open the ship door and walked through the eerie corridor.
As he delved deeper, the surrounding temperature seemed to gradually drop.
Crunch! Crunch!
There were also some skeleton fragments wriggling on the ground. At a rough glance, at least a hundred small skeletal pirate pieces lay scattered, victims of the Deep Sea Water Elf squad's attack.
The craftsmanship of the Deep Sea Water Elves was strong, and their combat ability was not weak either.
Chen Qi looked around. The interior structure of the Ghost Ship was even more complex than he had imagined,
"How do we proceed?" Stay connected via empire
Deep Sea Water Elf No. 1 hopped down from Chen Qi's head, like a majestic warrior, and led the way ahead.
"Wa-ku wa-ku! (Master, follow me!)"
Deep Sea Water Elf No. 1 held the Skull Sword, bouncing along.
Chen Qi followed the Deep Sea Water Elf and pushed open the heavy wooden door.
Behind the wooden door, there was an energy core emitting green flames.
The energy core appeared as an exquisite sphere, over a meter wide, with a surface that radiated a faint glow and tiny green flames.
The surface texture was delicate, flowing with mysterious runes and patterns that seemed to conceal mysterious energy from the depths of the crack.
This was the heart of the Ghost Ship, an energy core with immense power... Chen Qi slowly moved forward and gently touched this energy core with his hand.
[Ghost Ship Ghost Fire Energy Core (Main)
Nature Form: Hammer, Lamp
Introduction: Born from a master-level Ghost Artisan's energy core, it contains powerful Extraordinary Energy, providing immense power as the energy core of large constructs.
When fully activated, it will completely reshape the appearance of the ship and generate a large amount of green ghost fire, significantly increasing the ship's speed!
Meanwhile, the green fire emitted by this core can dispel weak evil spirits and sea beasts.
Note: This engine needs to be nourished by Extraordinary Power.]
Chen Qi caressed it carefully. Although its exterior was similar to the core he had obtained before, its performance was on a completely different level!
Such a qualitative improvement... Chen Qi swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
If he had this core, his ship would undoubtedly become the most eye-catching one nearshore.
"Well done!"
Chen Qi excitedly hugged the Deep Sea Water Elf.
The energy core was the heart of a high-order ship, and his current ship now possessed a legendary Ghost Heart!
Next, it would depend on the ship that Bri built...
Wait, what if the ship built by Bri couldn't withstand the energy core of the Ghost Ship?
After all, although Bri's craftsmanship was excellent, fundamentally, he had only built a medium-sized travel ship.
In terms of scale, it was far from matching warships and large cruise ships.
His residential ship's tender size, could it really withstand such a powerful engine?
Chen Qi felt a bit worried.
Luckily, his residential ship was about to be completed. The next step was only the decoration of the ship.
Whether the residential ship could handle the power of the green fire core would soon be known.
Chen Qi forcefully removed the Ghost Fire Main Core from the Ghost Ship.
After handling the core, Chen Qi gathered the little green algae and the Water Elves to start collecting treasures from the Ghost Ship.
"Move out!"
"Wa-ku wa-ku (At your command!)"
The Deep Sea Water Elves had no concept of money or wealth, fortunately, the little green algae, as a Sea Demon, was exceptionally sensitive to treasures.
In no time, with the efforts of the little green algae and the Deep Sea Water Elves, the engine room was piled high with pots and jars, as well as gold coins and fine wines.
These skeletal pirates really loved fine wines... Chen Qi crouched down and counted from left to right.
The pottery, paintings, and other items were severely damaged.
The price of these fine wines and gems added up to at least thirty million shell coins.
Quite a considerable fortune... Chen Qi calculated.
However, the Ghost Ship was now a prime target nearshore and a major enemy of many Hunter Groups.
Selling these items in Moonstone City would at most fetch fifteen million shell coins, plus there was the risk of being caught by the police.
The best way was to take these illicit goods to the black market in the Crack Sea.
Next, Chen Qi began to sort through the extraordinary items on the Ghost Ship.
Combat-use Extraordinary Props and weapons, as well as two Second-order Transcendents' backpack cards, and one Third-tier Transcendent's backpack card.
The Second-order Transcendents' backpack cards had nothing of great value, totaling only five million shell coins.
But fortunately, this Siren's Third-tier card wasn't lost.
This was a backpack card of a Third-order Transcendent... Chen Qi excitedly held the backpack card in his hand.
[Series 30 Backpack Card (Super Fire God Edition)
Nature Form: Lamp
Description: Produced by the White Dove Travel Company of the White Tower Federation for VIP customers, an essential for home money storage and travel.
Capacity: 2*2*2 (cubic, eight cubic meters)
Note: Dear guest, what is precious has its merits, may the products of the White Dove Company bring convenience to your travels!]
The size of this backpack card was 2*2*2.
Chen Qi's current backpack card was 1*1*2, which meant this new card's capacity was exactly four times that of his current one.
The larger the capacity of a backpack card, the more expensive it was!
Moreover, this backpack card was a special edition that could be used to preserve some food temporarily, as well as prevent items from rusting or food from molding.
What could be inside such a valuable card?
Chen Qi opened the backpack card. The card's face even thoughtfully labeled its contents.
Let's see, what good items are in a Third-order Transcendent's backpack card!
Enchanting Demon Perfume, which increased one's charm value. Its scent would make humans irrational.
Sexy Lipstick, which left a noticeably strawberry-colored mark that was hard to wash off.
Why leave an unwashable lipstick mark? Chen Qi pondered.
He almost forgot; this was the Sea King Siren's backpack card.
Chen Qi kept flipping through the items.
Delay Potion, Sleep Potion, Skincare Water, Collar, Dog Ears Decor, Cat Tail Decor, Pain Whip, Cow Costume...
What on earth is this? Chen Qi twitched the corners of his mouth.
Except for the Pain Whip, which could reduce mental acuity and was useful for interrogation, everything else was peculiar fetish items.
Shouldn't a Third-order Transcendent's backpack card contain world-changing weapons?
This Siren played really wild... Chen Qi gritted his teeth.
Fortunately, the Pain Whip could weaken someone's spirit and was considered a rare extraordinary weapon.
Finally, after much effort, he found a normal extraordinary item, a blue eye-like crystal the size of a head.
[Lost Deep Sea Eye
Nature Form: Cup
Introduction: One of the countless eyes of the legendary monster Deep Sea Titan Twelve Touches.
Effect: Contains powerful deep-sea energy, capable of summoning the Deep Sea Eye from the depths of the crack. (If in a special place and performing a special ritual, it can summon the Sea Goddess's gaze or the Eye beyond the crack, etc.)]
The Deep Sea Titan's eye... Chen Qi touched his chin.
Little Raven and the others were actually planning to summon a creature from beyond the crack or a presence related to the gods.
One must know that whether it was a being from beyond the crack or a presence related to the gods, both could stir up a colossal storm in the sea.
Typically, the Deep Sea Eye was mainly used as flesh material to grant vision to monsters, which was only part of the ritual.
Playing it big, Chen Qi marveled.
If Little Raven and the others could indeed summon a complete deep-sea monster, such a high-level deep-sea monster might only be manageable by a Fourth Rank Transcendent.
However, the Siren leaving behind such an important item...
Chen Qi thought carefully.
A monster without sight, no matter how strong and pressure-inducing, the threat was greatly reduced.
Of course, the Deep Sea Eye itself was an impressive extraordinary item.
Even without any preparation, the Deep Sea Eye it summoned possessed the power of a Nearshore Dominator with free movement in the sea and sky.
The only drawback was that these summoned monsters, for various reasons, quickly suffered the world's backlash and turned into black ashes.
A rather fruitful haul!
After inventorying his findings, Chen Qi moved the broken Ghost Ship next to White Tree as a special attraction.
Having handled everything, he sailed his residential ship to Maro Town to conclude the day's journey.
...
...
The next morning.
Outside the hotel where Chen Qi was staying, there was a light knock on the door.
"What is it?"
Well-rested, Chen Qi dressed, placed Deep Sea Water Elf No. 1 on his head, and opened the door.
Outside, An was holding a special wooden staff.
"Hum-hum~"
An softly hummed, walked to the end of the hotel corridor, pulled back the curtain, opened the window, and looked towards the dock of Maro Town.
The sea breeze gently blew in, under the morning sun, before the dock of Maro Town, on the shimmering sea, was a brand new ship:
His new ship.
