Chen Qi asked:"May I ask if the map just now is for sale?"
"You really plan to head to Sea Demon Gorge, huh?" Palu counted money while speaking, "Friend, even with the Navy's promise, it doesn't mean it's safe.
If you want to do a meal ship business, business is also good at Sea Demon Island, it's just that the competition is fierce.

Of course, I can't not make money, a more detailed map, for twenty thousand Shell Coins, and it's not for resale."
Chen Qi didn't hesitate and generously pulled out twenty thousand Shell Coins.
The map of the Ice Demon Pirate Group could be considered the most professional map on the seas.
If anyone knew the true identity of the wandering bard in front of them, his maps would have sold out long ago.
"Looks like you're not short on cash~"
Palu handed the map to Chen Qi.
After receiving the map, Chen Qi obediently retreated to the back of the crowd.
At this time, the tall and robust navy man who had spoken earlier came over: "I want a copy of the map too, and I have a piece of information to inquire about."
After buying the map, the tall and robust navy man asked solemnly: "Information trader, why is Kuang Sha, the captain of the Black Shark, bold enough to stay in the dangerous waters of Sea Demon Gorge?"
The Black Shark, which operates year-round in Sea Demon Gorge, is definitely the Navy's primary enemy.
And its captain, Kuang Sha, has experience living in Sea Demon Gorge.
Palu crooked his finger and whispered,
"Secrets..."
The Navy fell silent, the implication in Palu's words was for a private conversation.
Right after, the navy man's face flushed, and he stepped out with Palu.
After listening a while longer in the tavern and confirming there was no more information, Chen Qi also left the tavern.
...
...
Chen Qi returned to his room at the inn and began planning his next move.
During his previous action, he had already obtained the map of the cracks at Sea Demon Gorge.
Whether it was the information about the Floral Appearance crack needed by the Flower Witch or his own Shadow Lamp Phase crack, all were taken care of.
This afternoon, the Navy would raid Sea Demon Gorge.
Following the Navy to Sea Demon Gorge was definitely a good choice!
The Navy's involvement could help him deal with the pirates within Sea Demon Gorge.
Then, once they reached the intermediate zone, he would split from the Navy to head towards the Third Rank Floral Appearance crack deep within Sea Demon Gorge.
After he brought the Flower Witch to the Third Rank Floral Appearance crack,
He could go to the central area of Sea Demon Gorge, that is, the location of 'Qin', to take a look at the Sea Beasts!
And then, by the way, clear the nearby Shadow Image crack to obtain the Shadow Image Skill Card.
"A perfect plan..."
Chen Qi stowed the map and went to the Flower Witch's room to discuss their navigation plan.
The Flower Witch, who was combing her hair, gaped in surprise.
She didn't expect that in the time it took to take a bath and apply ointment, Chen Qi had already gathered information and devised a sailing plan.
"So impressive..."
The Flower Witch remarked with admiration.
After a brief discussion, the two began preparing for their upcoming actions.
...
...
Afternoon.
At the entrance to Sea Demon Gorge, its sides are steep cliffs that seem to embrace the sea surface like the arms of a giant,
And right now, five fully armed steamships were stationed at the entrance.
At the lead was the Navy's Bai Ou!
Behind the steamships followed a full thirty well-armed medium-sized vessels.
Chen Qi's small houseboat also mixed in with the fishing boats, stealthily following behind these colossal ships:
"Fen, be careful for safety," Chen Qi warned.
The Flower Witch, hiding on the bed inside the boat's cabin, nodded seriously, "Mhm, mhm."
The sea breeze grew colder and howled through the sails.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
At the ship's bow, a navy rear admiral vigorously struck the war drum with a giant hammer: "Everyone, prepare to set sail!"
The engines of the Navy's flagship Bai Ou roared to life!
Chen Qi stepped out of the cabin and looked up into the distance.
On the railing at the stern of the ship, he saw a familiar figure with white hair.
White hair billowed with the sea wind.
An was indeed aboard the Navy's ship... Chen Qi waved to An.
However, contrary to his expectations, An's eyes widened, and instead of waving back, he gestured urgently for Chen Qi to leave.
Run!
Knowing that a large number of pirates were hidden within Sea Demon Gorge, An considered this operation extremely dangerous!
Even for Chen Qi, survival in the midst of a battle between the Navy and pirates was unlikely!
Chen Qi chose not to leave.
An had no idea that his ship was hiding a Third Rank Flower Witch.
An, looking at Chen Qi, grew especially anxious and wanted to use magic to stop him.
However, following a loud steam whistle,
Bai Ou sped off, creating massive waves, and the ships, like numerous sharks, surged into Sea Demon Gorge.
The small houseboat closely followed, entering Sea Demon Gorge as well.
...
...
The flame of the day gradually dimmed.
An hour passed, and there were no longer any large ships within sight of the little houseboat. Searᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
In the first half of the course, Chen Qi followed the Navy closely.
For the middle segment, he chose a shortcut.
Shortcuts would allow faster arrival to the depths of Sea Demon Gorge, closer to the Sea Beast's lair. At this location, the probability of encountering Sea Beasts was higher.
Therefore, the majority of ships kept away from this route, choosing to take a longer detour.
The Flower Witch sat on the ship, hands together in prayer, eyes closed:
"Teacher, pray that our journey is smooth and we don't encounter any Sea Beasts."
Chen Qi carefully surveyed his surroundings.
He really wanted to head to the Sea Beast's lair, but he couldn't take the Flower Witch with him.
He had to bring the Flower Witch to the crack first.
But just then, something unexpected happened!
Behind them in the sea, a bubbling sound emerged.
