Witch, I'm really not the Deep Sea Ancient God!-Chapter 385 - 260 An: Extremely Sorry_2

They said:

"You’re awake?"

"I must still be dreaming..."

Chen Qi, weakened, closed his eyes again until a soft object gently pressed against his chest.

Another wail came:

"Waaaah (Master! Don’t die on me! How can I live without you!)"

Chen Qi, having no choice, opened his bleary eyes again to a gentle but slightly glaring light, reminiscent of the tender dawn.

He found himself on a surgery bed, surrounded by impeccably white walls and ceiling.

And the six figures around him were five White Tower Hunters and his novice mentor, Ann.

And, the Water Elf No.1 and No.3, who were wailing messily.

"It hurts—"

Chen Qi said.

"Don’t move the patient..." Ann reached out and picked up Water Elf No.1 and No.3.

Then, Ann placed her hands gently on Chen Qi’s chest and used the Healing Skill:

"Don’t move, take a deep breath, stay calm, relax, I won’t hurt you—"

Ann’s tone trembled slightly, a stark contrast to her normally unruffled demeanor.

On Chen Qi’s chest, a green ripple slowly expanded, followed by a surge of warmth.

Melanie twirled the surgical knife in her hand and said with a smile:

"My junior sister, don’t worry, you didn’t beat him to death. I’ve checked, he’s quite resilient. Among Third Rank Light Phase Transcendents, he’s one of the best!"

This guy’s still got plenty of juice in him! Melanie even felt that Chen Qi could take another five or ten punches. The reason he fainted was partly due to his exhaustion and somewhat because he acknowledged the end of the fight.

Hearing this, Ann moved her hands away from Chen Qi’s abdomen.

"Right! Little brother! You’re okay, aren’t you?"

Melanie punched Chen Qi’s abdomen with her little fist.

"Cough, cough..."

This guy... Chen Qi sat up on the surgery bed, lowered his head, and glanced at his abdomen wrapped in bandages.

Around his abdomen was a layer of special treatment bandages used by White Tower Hunters.

Wait a second...

Chen Qi suddenly realized.

Where did my clothes go? Why is my upper body bare?

Chen Qi blinked in shock, his hunter’s coat, and shirt had been removed, and there was some unidentified green liquid around his mouth.

Thankfully, his pants were still on, and most importantly, the backpack card was in his pocket.

"Phew..."

Chen Qi recalled carefully, with his memory gradually becoming clearer.

After he was knocked out by that punch, he seemed to have passed out, then the Water Elf found him...

In the end, Ann ran over, scooped him up in a princess carry, and brought him back to the medical room onboard the White Tower.

Such humiliation... Chen Qi shook his head as he remembered the scene.

This battle had taken an unexpected turn with Ann’s appearance.

The subsequent beating put him in grave danger with no time to react.

Had the attacker been anyone but Ann, this battle could have been a close brush with death.

"What happened afterward? There were no other accidents, were there?"

Chen Qi asked.

Melanie explained:

"The Snake Father was defeated by your hand, and the other Third Ranks were defeated by us; capturing the Snake Father was a breeze!"

At this point, Melanie paused, seemingly surprised that the old monster, the Snake Father, had been beaten by Chen Qi!

Had the Snake Father not taken proper care of his body?

In Melanie’s eyes, Chen Qi became more mysterious and powerful. Discover stories at novelbuddy

Then the glasses hunter, Alor, adjusted his spectacles and offered further explanation for his captain:

"At present, the Snake Father has been completely taken over by our brethren. For supply purposes and to treat you, we are currently located at the Seal No.3 Mobile Dock near the Sea of Calamity, a massive dock built specifically for adventurers."

"Lamp Keeper, we are safe now."

"Seal No.3..."

Chen Qi’s anxiety gradually eased, relieved that his defeat had been at the hands of his novice mentor Ann, and the White Tower Hunters were his allies.

The loss in this fight had not led to dire consequences.

A close call without disaster.

Melanie put away the blood-stained surgical knife:

"I performed the surgery, Alor administered the meds, we didn’t touch your stuff. Oh, and the one who undressed you—

Let me introduce you, the one who punched you just now, is my junior sister, novice mentor Ann... um, she throws a heavy punch, but it wasn’t intentional."

At that moment, Ann, with her head bowed, asked meekly:

"Sorry, Qi, you don’t have any strange side effects, do you?"

"None."

Chen Qi moved his limbs around, considering himself to be a person with moderate healing abilities.

A mere burning sensation in his internal organs!

Small injuries! They’re all minor!

Then, he joked:

"Ann, teacher, that was not very honorable of you!"

Had it not been for the sneak attack, even an injured Chen Qi should have been able to trade a few blows with Ann.

However, Ann’s progress had exceeded Chen Qi’s expectations.

At this point, her strength had vastly surpassed what he imagined.

To conceal one’s spiritual power so completely required immense control.

Ann frowned and apologized:

"Sorry, Qi, Melanie told me there were three Third Rank Transcendents on the Snake Father, and I thought of quickly defeating them..."

"It’s all right! I’m fine, just a punch, I can take it. Next time, Ann teacher, I won’t give you such an opportunity."

Chen Qi declared cheerfully, unfazed.

Am I being a bit too stubborn... Chen Qi thought with a wry smile.
