When disaster struck, I became a big shot surviving in the ocean.

Chapter 146: Chapter 146: The Failing Mutual Destruction, A Vain Death

Under normal circumstances, neither Chen Qing Shang Jia, White Immortal, nor any of them alone, or even all together, would be a match for the Sword Dance Mantis.

Let alone one cornered to a desperate situation by a peak-conditioned Blood Spirit and seemingly on the verge of self-destruction.

The only one present who could contend with the aberrant Sword Dance Mantis and push it to this point was the Blood Spirit, suspected to be an evil spirit.

Just when Chen Qing thought the Sword Dance Mantis was about to self-destruct, a rustling sound suddenly came from afar, and a mass of darkness flickered with an unusual light in the deep sea’s black water.

"..."

Chen Qing silently widened the distance from herself and Shang Jia and White Immortal once again.

She had forgotten.

Mechanical Spider Bombs... They were her own creations too.

The Mechanical Spider Bombs released by Chen Qing became the minions of the Sword Dance Mantis, extending their blades at their original creator, Chen Qing.

Chen Qing thought they had all exploded, but unexpectedly, the Sword Dance Mantis had invaded their cores and left so many behind.

Now, these Spider Bombs turned against the Blood Spirit and Chen Qing under the command of the Sword Dance Mantis.

The Blood Spirit’s strengths were very apparent and dominant, but its weaknesses were equally significant.

Before it had fully grown, the Blood Spirit was undoubtedly vulnerable, and these bombs could easily pose a threat to it.

It must be said that ever since the Blood Spirit followed Chen Qing, both the quality and quantity of its strength significantly declined, and it often went hungry.

Starving for three out of nine meals became the norm, and even after eating, the food was often taken right out of it.

Soon, a barrage of bombs exploded in the deep sea.

To be honest, since Chen Qing arrived, the Gem Sea’s marine environment had suffered greatly.

Explosions happened every other day.

Once this event is over, Chen Qing must take her boat and leave the Gem Sea immediately!

The use of large mechanical weapons in the Gem Sea is expressly forbidden.

The people of Cross Star don’t care about that, but that’s because they’re not on the side of good to begin with.

But Chen Qing... it’d be best if she left to avoid further trouble.

As an immense number of Mechanical Spider Bombs exploded, Chen Qing watched Shang Jia and White Immortal fly past her.

There were also the gory and foul-smelling fragments of the Blood Spirit, as well as the Sword Dance Mantis’s haphazardly assembled body parts.

But soon, Chen Qing had no time to worry about that.

Because she and the Mini Rabbit beside her were also sent flying.

The immense impact threw them all, slamming them hard onto the sandy ground.

All the people, machines, and beings there, no matter which, were injured, and the situation was evenly matched.

The Sword Dance Mantis, intending to take everyone down with it, had triggered the Mechanical Spider Bombs.

After all, bombs don’t discriminate between friend and foe.

The Blood Spirit suffered as much damage as the Sword Dance Mantis itself.

With its blood volume already heavily depleted by the Blood Spirit, the Sword Dance Mantis simply decided to go for broke with a self-destruction move that took everything out in one blow!

Large amounts of flesh and blood debris fell from the sky, scattering profusely, as if it were snowing.

Chen Qing was buried in the sand, completely immobilized.

It felt as though all her bones were broken.

Not just her bones, her stomach seemed to have been torn open, her insides were likely spilling out, her hair was completely burned off, and her face was ruined.

But that wasn’t really the point, the thing was, she couldn’t see anymore.

Blind, deaf, and mute, and grievously injured, Chen Qing could only wait for death.

The Deep Sea Farm had already been destroyed in the battle between the Sword Dance Mantis and the Blood Spirit, and the smell of blood here would soon attract other sea beasts.

At that time...

Chen Qing had ultimately underestimated the strength of the Sword Dance Mantis.

However, likewise, the Sword Dance Mantis had also underestimated Chen Qing and their defense and recovery abilities.

Chen Qing possessed the passive abilities of an Extraordinary Physique. Shang Jia was a mixed-blood Voodoo Witch with mysterious power.

As for White Immortal, she was no easy opponent, either.

Plus, all three of them had a few life-saving tricks up their sleeves.

If it had been anyone else, they would probably have died, but it was their misfortune that the Sword Dance Mantis encountered them.

Pure white death.

But, it was not easy for Chen Qing and her companions either.

Blown away by the explosion, Chen Qing, who had lost all senses and was completely unable to move, lay quietly on the sandy ground, not budging an inch. She had been the farthest away and was blasted even farther.

In the deep sea, only a few living things were left. After an unknowable amount of time, Chen Qing began to feel the pain of her flesh being gnawed.

This pain was nothing; there was no part of her body that wasn’t in pain.

The Blood Spirit recovered quickly. It too had been reduced to its juvenile stage by the Sword Dance Mantis’ suicidal attack.

It must be said that the Sword Dance Mantis died a wrongful death. It didn’t blow up a single one of them; all it took with it were Mini Rabbits it had controlled.

The Blood Spirit greedily fed on the flesh of Chen Qing until suddenly, a force it couldn’t resist pulled it away from her body.

It turned around, but before it could see clearly, it was stuffed into a glass bottle.

"..."

Immediately after, the rescuer arrived. No, it was the Mechanical Creation, the Blast Battle Rabbit, picking up Chen Qing, who had now fallen into a coma.

Chen Qing’s injuries were very severe; she was hanging on by a mere thread.

Had the Blast Battle Rabbit and Water Healing Butterfly arrived a bit later, Chen Qing might have already returned to the sea.

They were the backup plan arranged by Chen Qing, and they weren’t her only preparations.

She liked to have multiple fallbacks.

Previously dispatched Wind Shadow Jade had already been directed to head towards the Deep Sea Farm in groups.

The Mechanical Fish King had hidden early on, only showing itself after the Sword Dance Mantis died.

The Wind Shadow Jades surrounded Chen Qing, protecting her in the center.

Chen Qing’s injuries were beyond the scope of the Water Healing Butterfly; it could only treat her wounds superficially, performing cleaning and stitching, and injecting some low-level Recovery Potions.

As for the problem of Chen Qing losing all her senses, the Water Healing Butterfly had no solution; she needed a more skilled Doctor.

In the Deep Blue Sea area, if you are looking for the strongest in medical and pharmacological skills, it has to be the Plant Sea.

The Gem Sea is still a good stretch away from the Plant Sea, having to cross an Elemental Sea; the distance is very far, Chen Qing couldn’t wait that long.

She had quite a few enemies.

Not to mention anything else, just the rewards of the ranking list would attract countless villains to her.

The best option was to find a skilled doctor in the Gem Sea.

But Chen Qing’s familiarity with the Gem Sea wasn’t exactly vast, and her options for help were limited.

It appears that only Mazan from Sapphire Island could be temporarily trusted. If Chen Qing went to seek help from Shui Seqinglan of Jade Island, who knows how she might be taken advantage of.

But even Mazan might not be trustworthy. Chen Qing’s possessions were too many and too valuable.

The ranking event was about to end, and Chen Qing’s ranking was comfortably at the top!

Her two most potent competitors were still lying in the sand.
