Chapter 47: Chapter 47 The Mysterious Boat of the Flying Bird Adventure Group

"Okay, I’m here,"

Chen Qing’s voice was unusually hoarse as she spoke.

Chen Qing was quite capable of enduring pain and could do so without showing it, but this did not mean she was unaware of the suffering.

She rubbed her temples, her head still feeling somewhat swollen.

She would need to stock up on some Spirit-related potions.

The weapons and equipment from the Ten-color Pirate Group that she had previously confiscated, Chen Qing had put them all up for sale on a private channel.

Survivors were in great need of these kinds of items, as most of them were still adrift at sea.

Having good equipment could increase their chances of survival.

Not only that, but Chen Qing also regularly sold everyday supplies at low prices on the trading channel.

She barely made any profit; in fact, she was sometimes at a loss.

However, she had set limits on the age of the traders and the number of times they could purchase, as Chen Qing was purely offering charity with these living materials.

Chen Qing was open-minded about it; if the supplies could help just one person in real need, that would be enough.

She had the ability, so why not do it.

As soon as Chen Qing’s weapons hit the shelves, they were welcomed by the survivors in the private channel.

The weapons, used by the Ten-color Pirates themselves, were all of excellent quality.

Everyone knew their goods.

The objects Chen Qing traded for were still the same: mainly Mechanical Diagrams, mechanical materials, and Mechanical Creations.

But she didn’t have time to handle these transactions for now, as Chen Qing was about to head out to sea with Huo Hou and the others.

Gao Yue and her group were accompanying them, as were He Cai from Chen Qing’s ship and the traders from reef island.

They were originally going to wait for Chen Qing, but given the current situation on Sapphire Island, staying any longer would definitely turn them into cannon fodder.

It so happened that Gao Yue and her group were also preparing to leave, so they joined them.

The master of the traders, Javis, was experienced, and Gao Yue and her group had a certain level of Combat Power.

Without going into detail, Gao Yue and her group definitely had a higher Combat Power than the traders’ original escorts, and it was just right for both parties to sail out together.

In passing, Qiao Zhiyu and Zuo Yun joined Huo Hou and the others to hunt sea beasts and make some extra money, while Gao Yue could also practice her Extraordinary Ability.

It was an opportunity with multiple benefits.

This time, Chen Qing did not take Daliya to sea but left her at the Bounty Guild.

The Bounty Guild was bustling with activity, and there had been sleepless nights in recent days; it was the perfect place for her.

As for the ship, it was docked at the port under the care of the Superpower Vine.

Ordinary pirates wouldn’t be able to break through the Superpower Vine’s defense, and the other pirates... they couldn’t find any clues to be of use.

Originally, Chen Qing intended to stay on the ship to study those three Mechanical Creatures.

However, Huo Hou told her about the news from the sea: this time, a C-class gigantic sea beast had been attracted.

The Extraordinary Sea Beast, Ice Frost Giant Lizard.

Its bones were the best main ingredients for a Body Enhancement Potion, with very good effects.

The Bounty Hunters were planning to hunt it, and the pirates would not get involved.

The low and mid-level pirates either died or fled, and the remaining pirate groups either disdained such activity because they wanted to conserve their strength to deal with the Demon Dragon Pirate Group,

Or... they were waiting to reap the benefits of the fishermen’s gains.

The Demon Dragon Pirate Group had already clashed with the Thunderbird Pirate Group, with Thunderbird suffering a massive defeat and retreating.

The legendary "Moana’s daughter" was now in Demon Dragon’s hands.

Zhao Fuli sent the news that they were now on Demon Dragon’s ship.

The pirates of the Demon Dragon Pirate Group were quite nice; not only did they not harm them, but they also treated their injuries and sent them to Sapphire Island.

All this Zhao Fuli said, using her own words, they were different from other pirates.

Chen Qing maintained a neutral opinion of Zhao Fuli, after all, he was a pirate.

Up until now, there wasn’t a single pirate Chen Qing had met whose hands were free of innocent civilians’ blood.

"Huo Hou... is that the Flying Bird Adventure Group?"

A Bounty Hunter asked uncertainly.

His voice pulled Chen Qing back from her thoughts, and she turned to look forward.

"It seems so, right? Did they change their ship?"

Hou frowned. The Flying Bird Adventure Group was a very famous adventure team in the Deep Blue Sea, strong in power, and they proclaimed themselves lovers of freedom and peace.

They also had a considerable bounty on their heads, but generally, no Bounty Hunters would go after them.

This group was only interested in adventure and the unknown.

Most adventure teams and exploration teams would not get involved in the disputes between pirates and pirates, or pirates and hunters.

There is a subtle difference between adventure teams and exploration teams; the former likes to go to unknown places, while the latter prefers dangerous zones.

Unknown doesn’t necessarily mean dangerous, and dangerous doesn’t necessarily mean unknown, so there is a slight difference between the two.

This time, the adventure and exploration teams appearing on Sapphire Island were basically here for the excitement.

Why was the Flying Bird Adventure Group here?

Bounty Hunters were well-informed; Huo Hou had even heard that the Flying Bird Adventure Group had gone to an island that had just emerged.

How did they return so quickly? And came to Sapphire Island, with their ship’s appearance completely changed?

Chen Qing looked towards the direction of the Flying Bird Adventure Group. Even from such a distance, she still felt the danger emanating from the Flying Bird Adventure Group.

A chill ran down her spine—a terror.

Moreover, this feeling did not come from the Flying Bird Adventure Group, but from... their ship!

That seemingly ordinary ship was extremely dangerous; it... seemed... to be alive!

As soon as this realization appeared in her mind, Chen Qing’s heart started to beat violently, thump—thump—thump—

Even the blood in the vessels inside her body seemed to be pulsating along with it, and at that moment, Chen Qing could hear nothing, see nothing.

All she could hear were the sounds of her heart beating and her blood flowing.

And all she could see was that ship, as if targeted by some terrifying creature!

Whatever Huo Hou and the others were saying beside her, Chen Qing could no longer hear. When she came to her senses again, they were already at the dock of Sapphire Island.

"???"

Chen Qing blinked, feeling more perplexed than ever.

What had happened?

"Does the Flying Bird Adventure Group have a screw loose? They aren’t Bounty Hunters and aren’t short on money, so why compete with us for food!"

The Bounty Hunters around her were complaining discontentedly, looking gloomy.

The sea beasts that had gathered in the pirate hunting area before had all been slain by the Flying Bird Adventure Group!

Not a single one was left!

They didn’t even leave them a bit of the spoils!

Simply absurd!

"Alright, alright, those sea beasts didn’t bear our names, and if others have the strength to kill them, we can’t really stop them," Huo Hou said, quickly trying to soothe the Hunters’ emotions, though he also felt a bit frustrated.

"Chen Qing, want to go for a drink?"

Huo Hou sighed. Normally, he would have expected to earn a bit more this time.

"Ah—sure."

Chen Qing’s expression was complex, still not completely recovered from the fear she had just experienced.

What was the background of that ship, that not even the captains of pirate groups like Ghost Bone White Immortal could evoke such a feeling in her?
