When disaster struck, I became a big shot surviving in the ocean.
Chapter 61: Do You Know Chen Qing?

Chapter 61: Chapter 61: Do You Know Chen Qing?

Chen Qing still didn’t know that she had already caught someone’s attention, and even if she did, she probably wouldn’t react much.

The more debts, the less worry.

Having already dealt with White Immortal, would she really fear the Demon Dragon?

Compared to the Demon Dragon, it was Daliya that was a bit more worrisome.

Lei Guang’s courtyard was beautiful, lush with greenery, and vibrant with life, clearly well-maintained.

The three stood in the courtyard, Lei Guang’s face displaying obvious indifference, while Daliya seemed quite calm.

"This is your bounty, one hundred thousand goldfish."

"And there’s additional bounty, collect it from the Bounty Guild at the port in three days."

"I will have them prepare the Mechanic’s stuff; if there’s anything specific you want, you can bring it up now."

Lei Guang handed Chen Qing a card, a transparent blue hard card with a black fish pattern on it.

This was a one-time savings card issued by the Deep Blue Bank— the Black Shark Card, generally used for large bounty tasks as a form of payment.

It could be cashed at any Deep Blue Bank, as well as some major bounty guilds.

"Your arrangements will be fine."

Chen Qing took the Black Shark Card and nodded slightly.

She didn’t particularly lack anything now; it was mainly due to her limited experience that she didn’t know what good things were available.

With Lei Guang’s promise, they wouldn’t likely give her the runaround.

And moreover... forget it.

Being able to smoothly get these one hundred thousand goldfish had already exceeded Chen Qing’s expectations.

Given the previous situation, Chen Qing had actually prepared herself for an empty harvest.

"Okay, I’ll go pack up my things. If you have anything to say, say it quickly, I’ll be leaving once I come out."

Although Lei Guang felt no affection for Daliya, she did have quite an appreciation for Chen Qing.

Lei Guang knew exactly what was going on outside; this kid was really impressive.

Lei Guang considerately gave Chen Qing and Daliya space to say goodbye, but, in fact, Chen Qing and Daliya didn’t have much to say to each other.

The two had long prepared for their parting, each with a clear plan for their own futures.

"..."

Chen Qing looked down at Daliya and let out an almost imperceptible sigh, reaching out to pat her head.

"I know you’re smart, since you’ve made your decision, don’t regret it."

"..."

Daliya blinked—the sister seemed to know everything.

"Blast Battle Rabbit and Super Shield Whale... though they might not be of much use in the Scarlet Sea Domain, still... take them with you."

This was the last thing Chen Qing could do for Daliya.

"I hope we meet again in the Scarlet Sea Domain."

Chen Qing crouched down and gently hugged Daliya.

"Yes, we definitely will!"

Daliya nodded vigorously, and when the time came, it would be her turn to protect her sister!

"Be careful."

These were the last words Chen Qing left for Daliya, then she left without lingering.

"She’s gone."

While Daliya was secretly wiping away tears, Lei Guang suddenly spoke up.

"..."

In the courtyard, the figures of Daliya and Lei Guang quickly disappeared, taking with them the Blast Battle Rabbit and Super Shield Whale given to Daliya by Chen Qing.

Meanwhile, outside the yard, a little pickpocket was squatting at the gate waiting for Chen Qing, beside her was a damaged Blast Battle Rabbit.

"Sister Chen Qing!"

Upon seeing Chen Qing come out, she immediately stood up.

"Let’s go."

Chen Qing picked up the remnants of the Blast Battle Rabbit from the ground and, holding Linden, left the ruins.

On Chen Qing’s orders, the Superpower Vine had almost hollowed out the underground of the central area.

When Lei Guang destroyed the Biological Ship, the path also became damaged and completely collapsed.

Another item was added to the reconstruction project list of Sapphire Island.

Fortunately, this world was filled with the transcendent and the mysterious, and rebuilding was quite fast, a matter of minutes.

As soon as the pirates and hunters had withdrawn, the island’s workers had already started cleaning up the rubble.

Accompanying Linden, Chen Qing quickly returned to the port, where the ships that had been anchored offshore were all brought back by the workers.

Having obtained a large sum of money, Chen Qing had many things to do next.

As the biggest victor of this battle, what Chen Qing gained was not merely a hundred thousand in bounty.

Both her Mechanic and fighter levels had broken through to Intermediate!

However, Chen Qing had no time to deal with that at the moment.

She needed to collect the bounty, repay the shipyard, and settle the debts with the survivors for the props bought on credit.

All scattered amounts summed up to about forty hundred goldfish, and had it not been for securing Daliya’s bounty, Chen Qing would have really been in a headache.

At this time, there were hardly any people in the Bounty Guild, with only Ariel present among the staff.

Chen Qing handed the Black Shark Card to Ariel and exchanged it for twenty thousand goldfish.

The remaining money was then converted back into a new green Shark Card.

Having collected such a large bounty, Chen Qing gave Ariel a handful of goldfish as a tip. The shining goldfish were stored in a transparent glass bottle, making Ariel smile so much that her eyes squinted.

"The Demon Dragon Pirates’ Demon Dragon Shangjia have been inquiring about you."

After taking Chen Qing’s money, Ariel quickly informed Chen Qing of the latest news.

"I suggest you take shelter in the recycling factory for now," Ariel said in a low voice, advising Chen Qing.

"Thank you."

The Demon Dragon Pirates, huh?

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing didn’t feel any ripple in her heart, nor did she intend to avoid them.

Speaking of which, Zhao Fuli and her group were still on the Demon Dragon Pirate Ship.

"Linden, you know my ship, right? Could you go and wait for me there?"

Chen Qing had no intention of avoiding the Demon Dragon Pirates; if they wanted to find her, she simply couldn’t hide.

Chen Qing was very aware of herself, understanding that her strength was still weak.

If she had been strong enough, she wouldn’t have had to devise so many strategies and send Daliya into Lei Guang’s hands.

From the beginning to the end, she had tried to avoid a direct confrontation with White Immortal and her group.

Chen Qing was well aware that she couldn’t defeat them.

It was the same with the Demon Dragon Pirates.

As Chen Qing exited the gates of the Bounty Guild, she immediately saw the huge ship flying the Demon Dragon Pirate flag.

It was parked right beside her own ship.

"..."

Next to the Demon Dragon Pirate Ship, Chen Qing’s ship looked exceptionally tiny, and the ship beside hers looked even more like a miniature model.

"You go ahead and wait for me on the ship," Chen Qing whispered to Linden, then she herself walked towards the Demon Dragon Pirate Ship.

The redhead woman sitting on the bow of the ship was presumably Demon Dragon Shangjia; she indeed looked imposing and dominant.

Shangjia, sitting against the light, had hair that seemed to sparkle in the sunlight.

Pirates and hunters on the dock avoided the Demon Dragon Pirates, swiftly stepping aside at the sight of a buzz-cut man and a short-haired woman capturing and interrogating people.

It was easy to see the popularity of the Demon Dragon Pirates.

"Hey hey hey, why run away?"

Once again avoided by a pirate, the buzz-cut man was almost frustrated to death. It was one thing for hunters to avoid him, but why did pirates avoid him too?

Isn’t that discriminatory among pirates!

"Excuse me—"

As the buzz-cut man was wallowing in his frustration, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. Without thinking twice, he immediately grabbed Chen Qing and asked!

"Do you know Chen Qing?"
