Chapter 856 Ocean Disaster (7k 2-in-1)

Lanxun Manor.

Less than half an hour after the outbreak of the "Tavern Conflict" on Baijiu Street, Camille got the news, because Henk and others who represented Gangplank were under the surveillance of her subordinates since they landed.

Ji Xing was not sent by her, but she was not too surprised by Ji Xing's actions.

Four days ago, the two had a dispute that was not a dispute. She knew Ji Xing's ambition, Ji Xing's ambition to be on an equal footing with the Firos family and even command the Firos family, and Ji Xing thought he was a strong man.

This did not make Camille too angry. It was better to say it directly than to hide it, and she fully agreed with Ji Xing's idea that the world was the law of the jungle.

So after a period of silence, she only said one sentence to Ji Xing: "Prove it to me."

Prove that you are qualified to say such words.

Ji Xing accepted it happily, and then asked her about the actions of the Firos family in recent times. Camille did not hide it, and focused on the invitation to Demacia and Gangplank, the Pirate King.

She could clearly see that Ji Xing was more interested in Gangplank, and asked her: "Are you inviting pirates to form an alliance with them?"

She also gave the real answer on the spot: "Of course not, pirates are not trustworthy. What the Firos family needs is a ship, a powerful warship, whether it is obtained through cooperation or other."

Then Ji Xing's action tonight was obviously to choose "other" for the Firos family.

The Pirate King who kills without blinking an eye will not suffer such a loss. She believes that the smart Ji Xing should have prepared multiple actions for this.

If you use the power of the Firos family to get Gangplank's ship or even kill the Pirate King, the next development will be even more promising. Camille's heart has a rare expectation.

As for Ji Xing's safety, she was not too worried after testing Ji Xing's skills that night. That kind of skills is not to say that he can fight against a hundred people alone, but if he is prepared, six pirates can't hurt him, even if there is Gangplank's second mate among them!

So she waited for Ji Xing to return in Lanxun Manor and explained the next move and plan to her. If it was really wonderful and perfect, it would be fine to give Ji Xing the corresponding treatment and status.

But she waited and waited and waited and waited and waited.

Until late at night, Camille finally couldn't help but ask someone to check, and soon found the cliff where the battle took place and found the smashed body.

This was as she expected, but she couldn't find their chief craftsman of Philos!

That night, Camille had no mood to sleep, although she didn't need sleep much.

She was reflecting on whether she gave Ji Xing too much freedom. If she had taken coercive measures directly after discovering Ji Xing's ambition that night, would it be safer? Because he is a young man with the same talent as Hakim, I finally softened my heart?

The body made of steel was tireless, and she stood alone at the window all night.

When the light of dawn fell, the news she got was not what she wanted to hear, but the blue eyes finally became firm.

"For my family, I am willing to sacrifice."

This is the motto of the Philos family, from which we can see the family's philosophy. Everything I do is for the sake of the family and for the prosperity of Philos.

Even if there are mistakes along the way, I can be crushed to pieces to make up for it, everything is for the family!

Get ready for the evolution day.

…

The night on the sea ends earlier than on land.

The windproof lantern on the wrought iron statue tentacles on the bow of the boat finally went out, and it was finally no longer needed to pierce the dangerous fog on the sea at night.

Sarah sat at the stern, one hand on the side of the boat, fingers hanging down to the water, paddling the waves on the sea in a half-awake and half-dream state.

Although she didn't sleep all night.

As a famous bounty hunter in Bilgewater, a bounty captain that many pirates are afraid of, she, known as Miss Fortune, actually had a very happy childhood.

She is the beloved daughter of the famous female gunsmith Abigail Fortune, who is a legendary figure in the gun-making craft. Her works can be found in the collections of many wealthy merchants and captains, but this also attracts many covetous eyes.

It was Planck who took action.

At that time, Planck was just a budding pirate, but he had already shown more evil than other pirates. He asked Sarah's mother to make two unique pistols for him, which were stronger than anything else. When he took the goods a year later, he chose to rob them openly.

It was not even for the pistols, but simply out of malice. Her father and mother were shot and the workshop was burned down. Only the young girl survived by chance, holding the two guns made by her mother and crawling out of the workshop with her wounded body.

She repaired the damaged pistols, and the pair of guns became her weapons. She has made a great name for herself in Bilgewater Port over the years, and everything is just a preparation for revenge.

When Gangplank made unusual moves, she would naturally pay close attention, and finally came to Piltover with Gangplank's second mate in her sight.

But what happened next was beyond her imagination. Gangplank's second mate was killed by a mysterious guy, and then this guy invited her and her second mate to do something big...

Kill Gangplank? !

Now, they are here.

She looked at Ji Xing, who was lying on his back with his hands on his head and sleeping heartlessly all night in the cabin, and thought to herself: "People who go to sea for the first time can't sleep well. Judging from his performance, he is at least an experienced navigator, but his accent and language habits do not belong to Bilgewater. Could he be from the Freljord in the north or those sects in Ionia?"

The people in these two places are not simple.

…I am crazy, I am looking forward to it?

On the other side, Raven, who was sweating from paddling, looked over and said, "Captain."

"Are we nearby?"

Sarah pulled her fingers out of the sea water and dodged the bite of a strange fish. She wanted to call Ji Xing, but she saw that Ji Xing had opened his eyes and sat up.

"Hey, man, are you pretending to sleep?"

"I'm a light sleeper." Ji Xing didn't explain, he stood up and looked at the distant sea: "Over there?"

Sarah bent one leg, leaned on the side of the ship, and spread her hands: "Ah, if there is no transfer, Gangplank's Abyss is roughly parked in the sea ahead, intercepting the merchant ships rushing to Piltover to participate in the Evolution Day, waiting for his broken second mate to come back and report.

Before that, man, can you tell us about your plan?"

"We have already told you about the situation of the Abyss. It is the trump card warship that Gangplank snatched from Noxus. A round of artillery fire is enough to destroy a town." Raven added: "It is unwise to compete with that kind of thing at sea."

"Landing is also a problem , if you still have the second mate that Planck smashed, and take their boat, there is still a chance to get close. "

Sarah said: "But now? Planck is the most insidious and cunning bastard on the sea. My and Raven's reputation is useless. As long as this small boat appears within their gun range, Planck will order the guns to fire without hesitation, and then stand by the boat and laugh as we struggle in the sea. "

"Even if we land, so what? The guys from the Iron Hook Gang are always around him. There are at least hundreds of Planck's trusted subordinates on the Abyss, and there must be enough ammunition and weapons. "

The two of them said something back and forth, and the meaning was very clear. If you don't have a practical plan or show some tricks, don't even think about letting us go over to die even if you kill us.

Death is different from death.

Although the children of the sea are not afraid, they don't like to be stripped naked and hung on the rails to dry for three days and three nights, or to be skinned and thrown into the sea like livestock and die in pain.

Ji Xing looked at the sea they pointed to, closed his eyes slightly, and savored the fluctuations of the sea breeze.

"What is the most dangerous thing on the sea?"

This question startled the two of them. Raven frowned while leaning on the oars: "Sea monsters? Sea beasts?"

Sarah slowly sat up straight.

"It's a storm."

She felt a strange wind, and the source of the wind was the person standing in front of her!

The wind grew from small to large, blowing up the sails on the boat, blowing up her crimson hair, forming a clear blue color visible to the naked eye, and constantly buzzing around Ji Xing's body!

It has been half a year since the invasion of this world. Ji Xing easily mastered the meditation skills and began to accumulate magic power within a week of the invasion. After two and a half months of the invasion, he comprehended the tricks of lightning elemental magic because of the war stonemason of Noxus.

And these nearly three and a half months are enough for him to comprehend other elemental magic by analogy!

When skills can communicate with gods, the restrictions of attributes are no longer restrictions. The only things that bind Ji Xing's power are those that need to be accumulated day by day.

At this moment, Ji Xing completely released the magic power in his body for the first time. Even though it was not as good as the wind goddess Janna who could protect the twin cities from tsunamis, it was enough to stir up a storm on the sea!

He raised his right hand, clenched it, and the surrounding wind gathered in his palm, and then released it.

Sarah's mind was shaken by the sea water with her eyes wide open, and she suddenly curled her lips: "It's really a wizard, a group of unreasonable guys."

Raven threw away the oar with a bang, confused and muttered: "You should have said you had the ability to control the wind earlier, I rowed the boat all night."

Tired to death.

But... it was great!

...

Don't get drunk before doing serious work.

To become the recognized king of pirates, Gangplank is not only cruel and capable of fighting, but also has a sober and wise mind.

This time, robbing merchant ships was just a game. There were not too many drinks and no women on the Abyss. Gangplank actually took Philos' invitation very seriously.

Because Philos and Piltover are rich, for the pirates, it is a piece of fat meat that they can only scrape from the edge but never touch the inside!

But this time, Gangplank smelled an opportunity.

As the pirate king of Bilgewater, he smelled an opportunity to be recorded in history. No matter what Philos wanted to do by inviting him, as a pirate king, what he wanted was of course all the wealth of the Philos family!

So Gangplank woke up at dawn that day.

At this moment, he was wearing a red cloak, sitting on his throne, holding an orange in his left hand and a very short carving knife in his right hand, peeling the skin one by one.

The face with wrinkles carved by the knife was full of seriousness, which was his unique hobby.

When the orange peel was peeled, he swallowed it in one bite, not caring about the splashing juice dripping from the corner of his mouth and sticking to his beard, and looked up at the sea.

The sun just rose.

He and Henk agreed to return before the sun completely rose from the sea level, and Henk was a very punctual guy.

Whether it came back or not, the Abyss would go to Piltover before noon!

Thinking of this, Gangplank suddenly felt the deck under his feet tremble unnaturally. He raised his head slightly and whispered: "Is the wind blowing?"

The next moment, he stood up with a gloomy face. As a pirate who had been on the sea for more than 20 years, he was keenly aware of the unusual changes in the sea breeze and smelled the smell of uneasiness.

There were also experienced sailors on the ship, who had already started to shout: "It seems to be windy?"

"Hey, why does it smell like a storm!"

"How is it possible? This place is so close to the land, where did the sudden storm come from?"

"Wait! Look at the sea?!"

"Damn it! Snake Mother is above!"

Snake Mother is the god of life in the Python Islands, a real god, Nagakabouros.

In the description, He is a huge sea beast with winding tentacles, so he is also called Snake Mother and Bearded Lady.

Gangplank did not like Him because Ornn, who had a close relationship with him, joined His sect and became a sea beast priest, and devoted himself to it wholeheartedly, forgetting the feelings between the two.

But when he stood up and looked at the sea, he could not help but borrow faith temporarily in annoyance.

'Bless the Bearded Lady! ’

The brightness of the dawn was quickly swallowed by the dark clouds rolling in from the horizon, and the violent wind around quickly turned into a howling gale!

The sea was turbulent, but if it was just like this, the Dark Abyss, which had a draft of tens of thousands of tons, could easily withstand it. The real crisis came from the white line connecting to the sky in the distance.

A tsunami as high as a mountain that had accumulated without knowing when or how!

The pirates who noticed this scene were stunned in place, opening their mouths in fear, until Planck shouted: "Hide back in the cabin! Find something and grab it!"

If you are swept away by the sea, you will die!

He only symbolically reminded his men of this sentence, and then Planck rushed back to his captain's room on the bumpy deck, kicked his men who followed him out, and locked the door.

Who are you, hiding with me?

He knew that for these pirates, the captain was nothing under the threat of death. If they were in crisis together and there was only one good survival point, they would not hesitate to attack him!

Boom boom --

Just as he grabbed the most solid and stable thing in the captain's room, a huge impact came.

The sky-high tsunami completely engulfed the Abyss, and the whole ship seemed to be swallowed by darkness.

The hull shook violently like a roller coaster. Even a man like Planck, whose arms could break boulders, was instantly thrown against the wall!

Fortunately, the materials of the captain's room were tough enough.

But the outside world was miserable. Various facilities and items were washed to pieces in an instant. Planck heard familiar desperate screams, some of which belonged to his very trusted subordinates!

"Damn it! Damn it! Why did such a storm and tsunami suddenly appear?!"

No longer hoping to stabilize his body, Planck tried to curl up his body to protect his vitals, rolling and colliding in the captain's room, and seawater poured in from the door cracks and damaged parts, soaking his body.

It was not until three minutes later that Planck, who felt the ship gradually stabilized, raised his head from the sea, embarrassed, ferocious, and confused.

It's over? It came quickly and went quickly?

Even though he was used to the fickleness of the sea, Planck could not accept this absurd situation.

There was only one tsunami of that scale? This is not in line with common sense in sailing, why? !

He rushed out of the captain's room angrily, and what he saw was a desolate scene. Some unlucky guys were directly pierced through the buttocks by wooden boards, and some were nailed to their weapons in the chaos.

The main body of the Abyss was still tough, but his elite men were easily swallowed up by this joke of nature, which was ridiculous!

Ka——

Suddenly, the sound of bullets being loaded sounded from the side, and Planck's body stiffened. He turned his head in anger and saw the strange Sarah who was pointing a gun at him.

"Who are you? You did this? How did you do it? Philos's weapon?!"

"I'm Sarah." Sarah said, carefully observing the changes in Gangplank's expression, and the final conclusion made her mouth curl up slightly.

"You really don't recognize me, and you can't recognize the gun in my hand. Very good, I don't need you to remember me, just like my parents who died in your unreasonable malice, you just die with confusion under the "malice" of the guy who can control life and death more."

Death? Gangplank clenched his fist gloomily, even if his body was extremely sore and he even lost his weapon, it was just like when he fought with the Noxian general to rob the ship. Even if he was exhausted, I could still oppress and subdue a little girl like you!

Puff!

However, at this moment, a knife suddenly pierced Gangplank's heart from behind. Raven behind him spread his hands and said, "What malice? We are doing justice for the heavens, Captain."

Bang——Miss Fortune's musket was also fired at the same time, and the bullet pierced Gangplank's temple, taking the life of the pirate king without giving him any chance to speak and fight back!

In the broken cabin in the distance, Ji Xing casually stabbed the pirates who were not dead while walking.

…

"I don't like it here, Al."

Piltover, the sun is bright.

A team of special guests disembarked from the west port of Piltover and were heading towards the center of the city.

The man in the lead was tall and straight, with a serious face. He was wearing a set of heavy armor. He looked up at the Hextech flying door of the tower in the distance and made a casual comment: "Although it is not pure, this city is indeed full of traces of magic.

I don’t understand why His Royal Highness would value an invitation from a Piltover family and even send me to this place in person. ”

“Perhaps it is because the universal capsule is indeed an incredible invention, and it is completely free of magic? General.” The relatively thin and younger adjutant who was also wearing armor said: “The Gray Lady of Piltover seemed to have clearly requested in her letter that the envoys should preferably be military generals, because there are important weapons among the items they want to display.”

“Humph, our swords and guns are the best weapons, and the Forbidden Magic Stone Forest is the best resource given to us by God. When did the Demacians need to purchase weapons from abroad? "The man's face showed a slight indifference and pride.

Yes, they are from one of the most powerful countries in Rune Continent, Demacia.

Demacia is a powerful kingdom where law is supreme, with great military achievements and a long-standing reputation. Demacians have always advocated justice, honor and responsibility, and are almost fanatically proud of their traditions and heritage. However, despite adhering to these noble principles, over the past few hundred years, the self-willed Demacia has become increasingly isolated from the world and has become synonymous with isolationism.

However, this situation has improved and changed in recent years. King Jarvan III died suddenly, and the major families have not yet agreed on his only successor. The heir, Prince Jarvan, succeeded to the throne, and the internal situation was strange, but he gradually began to interact with the outside world.

The man's name was Jorge Bri, who was born in a meritorious family in Demacia, but he was also one of the main forces who strongly disagreed with the young Prince Jarvan's succession to the throne.

Naturally, he was very dissatisfied with Prince Jarvan's acceptance of the invitation of the Gray Lady of Piltover and sending him out. He even wanted to refuse directly. He agreed because of some other circumstances, so he was naturally unhappy.

Seeing this, his adjutant advised: "Piltover is known as the city of progress, and it does look very prosperous from a distance..."

"Heh, I think it's not even as good as Mithril City! "

That was a small town in the northwest of Demacia. The adjutant was speechless and could only follow quietly.

Behind the two men, there were two teams of 16 soldiers with spears, who were more heavily armed and even wore helmets to hide their faces.

This unique formation naturally attracted a crowd of Piltover people to watch in amazement, wondering about the origin of this team and welcoming all guests who came on Evolution Day.

"Happy Evolution Day!"

Unfortunately, there was basically no response.

Until the team walked out of the dock and saw an elegant woman with full body armor.

"Welcome to Piltover, guests of Demacia, happy Evolution Day."

Jorge Bri looked at Camille, who had been transformed by Hextech, for a long time before reluctantly extending his hand: "Are you the Gray Lady? Call me General Jorge. Where is the new weapon that Philos is going to show us? Who is your scientist named Seville? "

He casually looked at the Ferros guards following Camille. This attitude made Camille frown slightly. She didn't expect that the visitors from Demacia would have such an attitude.

It shouldn't be like this. Could it be that Prince Jarvan couldn't see the hint in my letter?

After a pause, Camille said, "Sevier is still busy preparing some things. General Jorge is tired from the journey. Why don't you go to the Blue Smoked Manor to rest first? If not, you can also follow me to visit the universal capsule factory."

Jorge frowned: "Let's go to the factory."

...

At the same time, the Councillor's Tower.

Except for Heimerdinger who went to find Jayce and Viktor, the other six councillors gathered together early in the morning to discuss the details of the Evolution Day preparations, but the discussion had nothing to do with the Evolution Day.

After all, the Evolution Day has been prepared for a long time.

At a certain moment, a councillor wearing a strange mask raised his hand: "The Demacians are here."

Several people looked gloomy and looked at each other.

"It's true. The Gray Lady actually invited the Demacians privately? ”

“Demacia and the Noxian Empire are mortal enemies. If Noxus knows about this, what will happen to my business? !”

“Business is not important. This will bring crisis to the entire Piltover. Noxians are a group of…”

The intense tone stopped halfway, and the speaker looked at Mel awkwardly, remembering that the Myrdal family was from Noxus.

Mel smiled lightly: "It doesn't matter. I am a Piltover man now, and Myrdal here is also a Piltover family.

But in my opinion, everyone is a little anxious. We are the City of Progress, an independent city-state. We can trade any goods with any country in the world. As long as we don't participate in the war, we should not be restricted. Besides, isn't today the Evolution Day? ”

“…That's the truth. ” The councilors were silent for a moment, and one of them said: "But anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is the revenge of the Gray Lady for the stonemason's attack on Seville in the last war! ”

“Shouldn't it be like this? If the way to please Noxus is to give them whatever they want, even if they want to rob the most talented scientists in Piltover, we should accept it? "Senator Gillaman said.

"Mrs. Gillaman, please don't express your opinion." A senator said helplessly: "Jace Talis is a technician supported by your family, and Seville was saved by your daughter's shot.

Your family has made a lot of money, but you can't cut off everyone's financial resources! Noxus is the largest buyer of goods from the two city-states, and my family business depends entirely on them! "

"It's not good to bet on only one side." Councillor Gilaman commented lightly and then shut up. After all, Caitlin killed a war mason, so she had to make some preparations, but she couldn't offend others too much.

There was a brief silence in the meeting hall, and the masked councillor said: "In fact, everyone cares more about other things. Have you all received requests from Stevan Firoz? "

Everyone looked at each other and agreed.

Camille invited the Demacians, and the councillors knew about it in advance because of the letter that Stevan sent them.

In the letter, Stevan even asked the councillors to help him "correct the wind of Philos". He pointed out that due to the appearance of Seville, Camille was too anxious to lead Philos to a new level, but too much is as bad as too little. Such drastic actions will only bring Philos to an irreversible state!

As the head of Philos, he could not sit idly by, but he was powerless, so he asked these councillors' families for help, to capture, and even kill Camille if forced!

And this meeting can be held, the councillors Naturally, there are some ideas.

The Gray Lady who secretly maintains the stability of the Twin Cities is a good Gray Lady, but the Gray Lady who walks to the front and directly commands the Twin Cities to move forward without the councillors is no longer a qualified "behind-the-scenes controller".

Should the spies of each family work together to try to punish the Gray Lady? Can it be done?

The prestige of Camille as the first person accumulated over decades still makes the councillors feel a little insecure, and Lady Giraman does not want to go to this step.

After a moment of silence, she could only speak again: "The letter also said one thing. Lady Camille not only invited guests from Demacia, but also invited the great pirate of Bilgewater, Gangplank, who is known as the Disaster of the Ocean.

I don't believe that Lady Camille will contact the pirates. Even if she does, it is impossible to cooperate, but there are other intentions. Now that the Demacians are here, should we wait..."

"Wait for that Disaster of the Ocean?"

The councillors exchanged glances, not quite making up their minds. Will the pirates... come?

7k2, two-in-one, asking for votes.
