I Don't Agree to the Terms

"The goods are in hand, let's go!" A glimmer of black light emerged in Wang Qi's eyes as malice erupted instantly.

The pursuing sea folk from the Dragon Fish Chamber of Commerce involuntarily hesitated, their minds thrown into chaos, rendering them dazed and unable to control themselves.

However, the attack lasted only for a moment, a mere three seconds, before things returned to normal.

Meanwhile, Fang Chen leapt past Wang Qi, a square box in hand.

The Endless Sea Spirit Claw was stored within.

Wang Qi's job was to cover Fang Chen's retreat.

"Put the goods down, and you may leave," A corpulent sea folk of immense size lumbered out from the Dragon Fish Chamber of Commerce, his hefty frame and armor making him resemble a Sea Beast from the deep sea.

"Just borrowing it for a while, I'll return it another day," Wang Qi responded, once again concentrating a blast of malice to attack the heavily mutated sea folk.

Yet the malicious assault was as effective as throwing a clod of earth into the ocean, doing absolutely no harm.

"Little bug, are you trying to tickle me?"

Despite the hulking appearance, the sea folk's body was not cumbersome but incredibly agile, instantly capturing Wang Qi with an oversized hand clad in scale-like keratin layers.

"He is a Divine Slave, possessing a self-aware high-level Divine Slave!" Gu Shanhai's voice transmitted.

This made Wang Qi's pupils contract as he realized Dragon Fish Chamber of Commerce had already fallen under the control of the Divine, or perhaps, even worse.

"I advise you to let me go, or you'll regret it," Wang Qi struggled against the crushing force, the difficulty to breathe and accumulate blood making it hard for him to speak.

"Regret? Little bug, I hope your threats are more than empty words," the sea folk sneered and increased his grip, hearing the sound of Wang Qi's bones shattering.

Just as he was about to finish off Wang Qi, a strange smell suddenly emanated from him.

The scent caught him off guard, causing his stomach to churn and a nauseating feeling in his throat, involuntarily making him gag.

That momentary physical discomfort loosened his grip on Wang Qi.

Without hesitation, Wang Qi broke free with a plunge and, despite feeling sick, flung his hand.

He tossed a broken mixture of egg liquid and shell at the high-level Divine Slave and then sped off, all the while still flinging his hand.

The sea folk from the Chamber of Commerce who had surrounded him were struck by intense dizziness the moment they got close, struggling to overcome it, proving not so easy.

Even the exertion caused them to vomit out their last meal.

Wang Qi's face contorted, partially from the physical pain, as he had suffered numerous crushed bones, and it would be strange if it didn't hurt as he ran.

The other reason, of course, was that he had crushed the stinky tofu egg, especially since his hand was covered in it, making him the primary victim of the assault.

Fortunately, his resistance to dark cuisine was considerable, enabling him to withstand the enhanced stink of the fermented tofu egg.

As he ran, with the spilt egg liquid evaporating, a layer of black fog began to emerge.

Dark cuisine, being Transcendent in nature, naturally possessed unique lethality.

"Ah! What is this..."

"Run, the black fog is poisonous!"

"Little bug, how could you...ugh~"

Various voices rose and fell in chaos. Like the high-level Divine Slave, because of his strength, he was not likely to die due to the scent, but the black fog born from the broken stinky tofu egg was formidable in its own right, especially regarding the smell, which was top-notch.

"Fuck, I can hardly stand it any longer," Wang Qi's face turned various colors due to the odor, as the liquid from the stinky tofu egg on his hand also formed a substantial amount of black fog, filling his nostrils even as he held his breath.

He now somewhat understood why Fang Jin, after acquiring the frenzied shark perception, felt so utterly despondent when facing fermented shark meat because he was experiencing it too.

Wang Qi knew he had to deal with this quick, or he might not make it back.

"Captain!"

Just as Wang Qi pondered what to do, he heard a familiar voice; it was Tang Quan, who was hesitant to move upon seeing the scene.

"Hurry, it's dangerous here!" Wang Qi didn't know why Tang Quan had come but knew that Tang Quan wasn't strong and coming here was akin to a death sentence.

Before Tang Quan could reply, he saw him pull out a bundle of thick hemp rope, forming a lasso.

Seeing this, Wang Qi was puzzled about what he was planning.

In the next second, Tang Quan threw the lasso over, securely looping it around Wang Qi.

Then with a tug, Tang Quan pulled, causing Wang Qi to stumble before running off, pulling him to safety without direct contact.

During this escape, the black smoke rising from Wang Qi's hand formed a dragon-like trail, resulting in a chorus of retches and collapses wherever it went.

The sea folk from Dragon Fish Chamber of Commerce avoided it at all costs, terrified of being affected.

After all, the loss was the Chamber of Commerce's, the enemy was the Chamber of Commerce's; they were just sea folk employees, and if they died over this, their families were unlikely to see any compensation from the company.
