Fireworks, how did you know I like watching fireworks... Little Crow buried her head, trying to cover her face as much as possible and sneaked a glance at Chen Qi, asking:
"Did you bring fireworks?"
Such beauty that blossoms in an instant and fades just as quickly, she used to love watching them with her grandmother when she was a child.
However, in Shell Country, fireworks were only set off during the New Year or major festivals.
At sea, people also used fireworks as a way to signal for help.
Could it be that Chen Qi had especially brought fireworks on his travels?
No, I didn't bring any fireworks... Chen Qi lifted his head, gazing at the sky, and explained:
"When the Dream Beast dies, its burning body falls from the sky, just like falling fireworks. If I'm not mistaken, there should still be some interesting scenes to witness, you know?
When the Dream Beast dies, it creates mirage-like scenes where you can see people's dreams, like yours, dreams of those wearing white capes..."
"Seeing the fireworks of dreams..."
Little Crow imagined for a moment, she hadn't heard about such a thing before.
And why do you know so much about the Dream Beast?
And why are you so sure that the Dream Beast will die?
However, it sounds quite romantic... Little Crow very quietly asked:
"Why will the Dream Beast die?"
Chen Qi estimated the time and gave a brief explanation.
Currently, outside the rift, it should be morning, which means the sun is high in the sky.
The sun in the New World possesses the great power to dispel impurity and catastrophe; most disasters from the rift are turned to ashes by the sunlight.
Moreover, Chen Qi faintly sensed that the Ice Witch had placed a second restriction on the Dream Beast.
This restriction, which is very likely "oil," would cause the Dream Beast, once exposed to the sunlight, to burn rapidly from the sun's power.
This means that even a being as powerful as the Dream Beast, at the moment of its Descent, would be consumed by immense flames.
The Sea God Pirate Group thought they could break the seal, but the Dream Beast, once unsealed, couldn't even survive more than a day—its existence was fleeting.
The Ice Witch, truly is a terrifying being... Chen Qi thought to himself, hoping that this witch, who specialized in slaughtering humanoid monsters, would revive later.
Perhaps, all of this was anticipated by the Ice Witch.
If the Ice Witch were still alive, with his current strength, he couldn't even defeat a single finger of the Ice Witch.
If he indeed encountered the Ice Witch, he didn't know how many times the Ice Witch would kill him, and he might even be hung up and tortured.
Luckily, the Ice Witch should still be lying in some sealed coffin, and he hadn't provoked the hostility of official organizations.
The Ice Witch likely won't be easy to resurrect.
How do you know so much... Little Crow blinked.
How on earth did Sawshark capture this fellow back then!
No, I must pry it out of his mouth... Little Crow tried to make her voice more seductive:
"How do you know about the Dream Beast?"
Chen Qi, feeling the serene sea breeze:
"I once took an exam at the Bei Country Royal University's Library Science Department, and I have read relevant books; I learned about the Dream Beast incidentally."
Little Crow bit her lip:
"Does the entrance exam of Bei Country Royal University really test these things?"
Ordinary Transcendents probably won't even encounter a Dream Beast in their lifetime!
Yes, they really do test that, and there are even theoretical tests on encountering Dream Beasts... Chen Qi answered seriously:
"You should understand, universities in Shell Country always test some knowledge that won't be used in a lifetime."
"..."
Although Little Crow felt something was off, she nodded seriously, pondering how to continue her questioning.
No good! Damn Riddler!
Perhaps, only if she became a Fourth Rank Legend could she uncover his secrets.
Wait, a dream... Little Raven faintly sensed something.
At that moment, Water Elf No.3 jumped out from behind Chen Qi.
"Waku waku (Master! Master! I found it!)"
At that moment, Water Elf No.3 was holding a bunch of yellowed papers.
Hopefully, there would be a design for the sea lantern... Chen Qi immediately took the papers and began to flip through them.
Water Elf No.3 couldn't read, and most of the papers were old newspapers.
The newspapers described the chaotic era in the Witch Sea during the dim days of the daylight.
"Isn't it here..."
Chen Qi diligently searched and finally, on one of the newspapers, he spotted densely packed engineering diagrams.
"Lanterns, energy drive devices, and special deep blue stones..."
The sea lantern's design!
[From a distant investigator, you have found the 'sea lantern' design.]
Mission accomplished!
Looking at the prompt in front of him, Chen Qi smiled genuinely.
This operation, he had killed almost no creatures, wanting to enhance the rating of the rift, this was key in the critical aspects of the rift!
"Well done, No.3!"
Chen Qi excitedly put Water Elf No.3 on his lap and gently touched its bouncy and soft little head.
Unexpectedly, the usually unremarkable No.3 had a special talent for finding items.
"Waku waku!"
Water Elf No.3 made a joyful sound.
Chen Qi carefully examined the design on the newspaper.
The sea lantern was a specially designed energy lamp for nighttime use, not only waterproof but also capable of dispelling shadow demons, evil birds, Black Beard, and many other monsters.
Moreover, the material used came from the commonly found deep blue ore in the 'Blue Crystal Mine' from the Chuixiang Rift of grade D.
The price of deep blue ore wasn't low, but if the sea lantern could really dispel shadow demons, the materials were already quite cheap compared to other similar products.
An energy lamp specifically for dispelling shadow demons was an extremely rare creation.
Good stuff... Chen Qi briefly summarized.
With the arrival of the 'Smiling Moon Period' on the sea, his vessel would also need a large number of 'demon-dispelling lanterns'.
If the design of the sea lantern had been lost, perhaps he could still contact the relevant departments to exchange it for money or even more expensive items.
Of course, all of this was predicated on Bonfire Energy having no better product.
Chen Qi stored the sea lantern design in his backpack card.
At this time, the sky's rift also suddenly split open.
The Dream Beast sang.
With the complete shattering of the rift, the burning sun in the sky poured down warm sunlight, gently sprinkling onto the beach and on the two of them.
The sunlight is so warm, so comfortable... Little Raven patted his own cheeks.
As the only survivors, they quickly received a prompt.
[Rift settlement in progress...]
Chen Qi excitedly rubbed his hands together.
The only regret was that in this rift, he had hardly killed any monsters; the only challenge he had overcome was a statue created by the Ice Witch.
Hopefully, it would earn a good rating...
