Witch, I'm really not the Deep Sea Ancient God!

Chen Qi gripped the hilt:

"This is your last warning, captain of the White Tower Hunters, according to the rules among Hunters, I can help you, but you must make a reasonable commitment."

Although the Hunter Association was free and loose, it also had some codified special rules.

That was the principle of mutual assistance within the Hunter Association, if a Hunter was in a dangerous predicament and there happened to be another Hunter nearby, the endangered Hunter needed to pay a certain compensation to commission the help of the other.

Whether a Hunter attacked the troubled Hunter or if afterwards, the assisted Hunter refused to pay the compensation, the adjudicators of the Third-tier Scales or the adjudication knights would administer severe punishment.

Of course, the crux of the matter still revered strength above all, and most Hunters in conflict would not rely on the adjudication office to resolve the issue.

The reason Chen Qi spoke in such a manner was merely to tell Melanie that he was a Hunter, not an irrational, bloodthirsty tentacled monster.

In this superficial world, he was completely treated as a monster.

"Who exactly are you..."

While dodging, Melanie looked at Chen Qi.

At this moment, the air was filled with the resounding blast of explosive noises, and enormous shadows constantly shuttled through the sky, hitting them heavily.

The surrounding ground had sunk several layers, and a lot of black smoke billowed out!

At this moment, one of the team members finally remembered and loudly said:

"Captain Melanie, the other party is very likely the long-missing Black Hunter, who once defeated the Black Pig Shark singlehandedly! He is a battle-capable Third-tier Transcendent."

"What? Wasn't that guy whipped to death after being drugged by the Flower Witch, who then bound him and lashed him till he died?"

Melanie said in disbelief.

What the hell are you talking about? Chen Qi's expression was cold, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

Being blown up by the Gunfire Queen, he could understand.

But what's with this being whipped to death? Does the Flower Witch look like someone who enjoys whipping people?

What in the world had been reported in the newspapers during his month-long practice with the Blood Blade Pirate Group?

Which newspaper reported this? Chen Qi was speechless, setting aside his queries, he once again said coldly:

"Captain of the White Tower, I'll give you three seconds to think it over."

Melanie hesitated for a moment, her face flushed. Finally, she said:

"Monster, although I don't know who you are, we request your help!"

Not a problem... Chen Qi snapped his fingers:

"Give me a Hunter's contract card bearing the Scales, and make a vow."

Making a contract... Melanie's pupils shrank rapidly.

Among high-order Transcendents, many have Scales and shell-based transcendent contracts, which can ensure the perfect execution of spoken words, such as master-servant contracts, slave contracts, cooperative contracts, love contracts, and so on.

These contracts, as a means of credit among high-order Transcendents, are quite common.

Violating them would result in intense backlash.

As a card master, Melanie had all sorts of fanciful cards at her disposal.

The Hunter's contract card she held could establish a perfect Hunter's promise.

If violated, the body would immediately suffer from a terrifying backlash of the power of the Scales, strong enough to cripple a Third-tier Transcendent.

Making a contract with a monster... Melanie was caught in a brief struggle.

Contracts are extremely dangerous things, usually only used in front of those whom one trusts!

But could she really afford to hesitate now...

And would making him a part of it truly change the tide of the battle?

Ultimately, he was just a Third-tier monster.

Melanie pondered rapidly.

If things continued this way, her team members could die!

Nothing was more important than the lives of her team members!

Even if he couldn't help them, just ensuring that he wouldn't attack them would be good enough!

Melanie suddenly pulled out a card from her chest.

Engraved on the card was a large bird holding a pair of scales and wearing a hunter's cap.

"I vow by the Hunter's contract that after the battle is over, thirty percent of the spoils from the Shadow Weaver will go to you, and in addition, our White Tower Hunter Team will not attack you or entertain any thoughts of doing so for the next day!"

Thirty percent of the spoils... Chen Qi thought it over.

A good reward, as in this battle, his maximum output could barely reach twenty-five percent.

"I agree."

Chen Qi said quietly.

The moment he agreed, the card in Melanie's hand burned like a flame, turning into a golden glow and entering their bodies.

A warm sensation entered Chen Qi's body.

[You have signed a Hunter's contract...]
Stay tuned with My Virtual Library Empire

Chen Qi blew softly, and the white fire blazed fiercely.

The White Tower Hunters had overestimated the Shadow Weaver.

The Shadow Weaver was a typical large BOSS, and its mechanisms were extremely powerful.

Its six Blood Eye Hands at the back could cause a very powerful psychic attack.

Furthermore, it had a terrifying skill of dark traversal, allowing it to instantly enter dark cracks to evade fatal attacks! And its cooldown was only one second, too short to believe!

With spatial traversal, the Shadow Weaver could directly ignore extremely powerful lethal attacks.

Thus, for many who first encountered it, the Shadow Weaver appeared to possess an invincible skill, capable of dodging all high-damage skills, making it seem incredibly powerful.

But in reality, the Shadow Weaver had a huge weakness, and that was after using spatial traversal ten times, it would have a two-second period of exhaustion.

During this time, it could not use spatial traversal and was hard-pressed to move, making it a giant punching bag ripe for beating.
