Runeterra: I really know a little bit about everything

Chapter 24 The source of Pigang’s faith!Soul-Eating Night!

Under the tug of Zuo Chi, giant rock spikes several meters in diameter rushed toward Nautilus above!
Although Nautilus's body rose rapidly, the rock spikes rose a bit faster.

Just when Nautilus' big hands were about to grab Zuo Chi's legs, the rock spikes rising from various places on the seabed also arrived in front of Nautilus!
"Puff puff!"

There were muffled sounds, and the gray-white light film on Nautilus' body was instantly pierced, and those rock spikes trapped him tightly in the middle of the sea water.

Zuo Chi turned his head and glanced at Nautilus below, then quickly floated up and swam towards a fragment of the boat.

Floating on the surface, Zuo Chizai didn't hold back at all. He held a large piece of the hull fragment and rowed forward with all his strength.

Before leaving, Zuo Chi did not forget to search his entire body.

After some groping, he found a leftover half of dried meat from his clothes and threw it into the sea.

"If we get gold coins, please treat Dahai to eat dried meat."

The moment Zuo Chi recognized Nautilus, he already understood why he was pulled into the bottom of the sea.

Now that I have finally escaped from the water, I naturally have to make up for the tithes I owed before.

However, Zuo Chi specified that there would be no golden siren coins, so he could only use the half of dried meat instead.
Zuo Chi still had some understanding of Nautilus's experience.

In the past, Nautilus could be said to be the most capable salvage man in Bilgewater, always able to salvage countless treasures from the deep sea of ​​Bilgewater.

Until one day, a foreign captain hired Nautilus to go to a certain sea area to salvage treasure for him. In order for the salvage to proceed smoothly, the captain also prepared a set of extremely thick and strong diving armor for him.

However, just when Nautilus put on the diving armor and was sent little by little under the sea with iron chains by his companions, he was horrified to discover that the foreign captain did not pay the sea fee before going to sea. Tithe!
Just like that, just as Nautilus was being sent into the deep sea, green tentacles wrapped around his body, seemingly trying to pull him into the abyss of the sea!

Nautilus struggled fiercely, clinging tightly to the iron chain in his hand, because it was the only connection between him and the sea.

However, just when Nautilus was almost able to escape from the shackles of these tentacles, the chain in his hand broke!
In order not to be affected, his companions cut off the root that was his only hope of survival.

He could only wear heavy armor, being pulled into the deep sea by those tentacles little by little, and watching the shadow of the big ship disappear from his sight.

Since then, there has been one less ace salvage man named Nautilus at the Port Pier, and there has been a terrifying legend named Nautilus in the deep sea of ​​Port Port!
The shadow transformed by Nautilus will use the huge anchor in his hand to punish everyone who has not paid tithes to the sea.

If you don’t pay the tithe, the sea will boil and the mountains will shake!
This sentence has become the consensus of almost every Bilgewater person.

At this moment, Zuo Chi truly experienced this terrifying legend.

As for why one has to pay tithes, Zuo Chi has a different understanding from others.

Bilgewater can be said to be the place with the most concentrated faith in the entire Runeterra, because there is only one god here!
Every Bilgewater person will dedicate his most sincere faith to the terrifying demigod that exists in the deep sea of ​​Bilgewater.

The god who represents life, growth and eternal movement - Naga Kapoulos!

Naga Kapoulos strictly controls all beliefs in the entire Port of Piraeus.

It is precisely because of this that she is so powerful, and even ranks among the strongest demigods in the entire Runeterra!
And tithe is one of the means by which Nagakapoulos controls the faith of Piraeus!

Throwing the Golden Siren Coin into the sea is not really paying taxes to the sea, but offering faith to Naga Kapoulos!

Nautilus is the most devout and conscientious believer of God Na, and is responsible for supervising whether the passing ships have paid tithes.

Of course, this is just Zuo Chi's own inference based on his understanding of Nautilus's background story in his previous life. Whether this is the case is unknown.

After finally getting rid of Nautilus's entanglement, Zuo Chi was finally able to move forward safely.What Zuo Chi didn't know was that not long after he left the sea area, green tentacles slowly rose from the bottom of the sea, clinging to the rock spikes he summoned, and got closer to Nautilus. .

Immediately afterwards, these green tentacles exerted a slight force, and the rock spikes were completely shattered in an instant, and the light in Nautilus's eyes lit up again at this moment!
After breaking free from the shackles of the rock spikes, Nautilus gently stroked the tentacles with his big hands, then raised his head and glanced at the sea, then turned into a shadow and sank into the abyss.

On the sea, after Nautilus's entanglement, the already dusk sky became darker and darker.

Zuo Chi lay on the wooden board and paddled forward with his arms on the sea surface that reflected the little waves.

While paddling forward, Zuo Chi was always paying attention to whether there were any fishing boats out to sea in Piraeus Port.

After all, Zuo Chi's ascension power is not complete enough, so he is not yet able to fly in the air like Aatrox and other ascenders.

If you release the power of ascension and walk on the sea for a long time, it will consume more energy.

So if you want to cross this vast sea, you still need to take a boat.

But Zuo Chi has not seen any ship on the sea since the afternoon until now.

Not just ships, not even seabirds or sea beasts were seen!
These abnormal phenomena also made Zuo Chi feel excited.

He observed everything around him carefully, trying to discern some clues from the clues.

However, Zuo Chi found helplessly that except for the endless sea, there was really nothing around him!
It seems that all the living people have disappeared at this moment!
After searching hard to no avail, Zuo Chi had no choice but to continue riding on the wooden board and paddle forward.

Time passed little by little, and before you knew it, darkness had completely fallen.

"Woooooo~~~"

I don't know if it was an illusion or something, but Zuo Chi suddenly heard bursts of wailing!

Zuo Chi quickly turned his head and looked around him.

The power of ascension gave Zuo Chi strong eyesight, so he could see everything around him clearly.

Just when Zuo Chi looked directly behind him, his entire face completely collapsed.

"No, why are you so unlucky!"

At this time, Zuo Chi finally understood why there was no living creature in this sea area.

In front of that thing, I'm afraid any living creature will be instantly corroded into an undead that only knows killing.

Without any further hesitation, Zuo Chi's soaring power exploded, he picked up the board underneath him, stepped on the sea with his feet, and ran forward like crazy.

Not long after Zuo Chi's figure disappeared, a burst of blue-gray mist slowly covered the place where he had just been.

This fog comes from the southeast of Bilgewater and spreads all the way to the north.

The bursts of wailing that Zuo Chi heard just now came from this black mist.

On the other side, within the port of Bilgewater, there was the sound of gongs and drums.

"The Night of Soul Erosion is coming. If you don't want to die, you should hide quickly!"
