Twin Cities: I am the man of many myths

Chapter 169: Danger in Bilgewater

Zaun, Parliament Building.

Wei was standing at the door. Logically speaking, Wei had already reached such a high level in Zaun that standing guard was not something she should be doing, but she came anyway.

However, Wei was not here to stand guard, she was here to accompany Caitlyn.

Caitlyn, who is tall and conspicuous in Zaun, is wearing the Zaun Enforcer's uniform. The gray-red Zaun Enforcer uniform is more suitable for Caitlyn than the blue Piltover Enforcer uniform. The bold design also makes Caitlyn look sexy and hot.

She was smiling at Wei and pointing at the door.

"Is Xierko in a meeting?" Wei raised his eyebrows and asked in a low voice.

She understood what Caitlin meant, which was to ask her to pay attention to the volume.

Caitlin shook her head and whispered, "Only Hilco and Renata are here, but Hilco looks unhappy."

"When has that sour face of his ever had a good expression recently? Ever since Jinx left Zaun, he's always had a sour face, as if everyone owed him money." After hearing this, Wei complained angrily.

Ever since Li Ke took Jinx away from Zaun, Hilco seemed to have entered menopause, but he is a man, how could he be in menopause?

But his temper has indeed become worse. He always has a gloomy face and no longer wears makeup. He looks like a left-behind father.

Everyone who saw it was amused by Wei.

When Caitlyn saw Vi teasing Hilco, she just shook her head. She didn't stop Vi, but she didn't agree with her either.

In the office, Hilco looked at the manuscripts in his hand with a grim expression, pulled out one of them, and placed it flat on the table. Renata beside him reached out and picked it up, then looked down at it.

After a moment, she said, "This girl is quite sensible. She knows she can't ask us for help at this time. Instead, she only asked us for supplies, and a large amount of medical supplies."

Renata put the paper back on the table, folded her arms and looked at Hilco, and said, "So, what are you going to do?"

"What should I do?" Hearing this, Hilco looked up at Renata, but did not answer the question. Instead, he asked, "What do you think?"

"We shouldn't have gotten involved in this matter, but we have invested a lot in her. If she dies like this, we will suffer a huge loss." Renata thought for a moment and said, "As a businessman, I will not allow investment failure to happen to me."

"Especially, investments that lose all the money."

"What about the politicians' perspective?" asked Hilco.

Renata replied, "Both sides. If we get involved and help her take over Bilgewater, then Bilgewater will be Zaun's backyard in the future. Many dirty things in Zaun can be done by Bilgewater, which is beneficial to Zaun's development. But on the other hand, a country that intervenes in other countries' wars without authorization will not be welcomed."

"There are both advantages and disadvantages, but the biggest problem is that if we participate and fail, then we will suffer a greater loss than if we just gave up on her." Renata said calmly.

Bilgewater has been in internal strife and war recently, and the ones who started this war were Sarah and Gangplank.

After receiving funding from Zaun, Sarah let go and quickly began to expand her own strength. She suppressed Gangplank's people on Bee Island and started a war.

This forced Gangplank, who had been wandering outside Bilgewater, to return to Bilgewater, and the two sides started fighting completely.

Sarah was resourceful, brave and courageous, and she seized the initiative, so she had the advantage at the beginning of the battle on the island.

She even colluded with Planck's men one night, alienated his people, and burned Planck's ship with a fire, officially letting the entire island know that the Pirate King was a thing of the past.

The new king of the sea is Miss Fortune Sarah, and she is the new master of Bilgewater.

Gangplank also fled Bilgewater in the chaos. Sarah sent people to hunt him down, but failed to find him on the sea at night.

Just when Sarah thought the matter was over, Planck suddenly came back a week later.

Returning with him was the Baru priest from the Python Islands. As a result, all the gangs on the island suddenly changed their stance. They went from being neutral and watching the show to helping Planck. The gang leaders headed by Okao, led various gangs to support Planck and help him make a comeback.

Zaan only received the news in recent days. As soon as he received the news, Hilco asked Janna to deliver it to Li Ke.

"So do you think we should help or not?" Hilco tapped the table with his fingers and asked impatiently.

Renata rolled her eyes at this, her chest rising and falling under her suit. She said, "From a politician's perspective, I don't think we should help. Even without Bilgewater as our black glove, Zaun's development will not fall behind. It's not worth the risk to just add icing on the cake."

"Besides, does what I say have any effect? ​​Hmm?"

"It really doesn't work, I'm just asking." Hilco raised his hand.

Renata snorted coldly, with a word "fuck" stuck in her throat, but she swallowed it back in the end. She chose to stand obediently beside Shilko.

When that bastard Hilco abdicates, then I might be able to take his place now!
When the time comes, when their identities are swapped, she will let Hilco know what cruelty is.

But now is not the time.

So, she said respectfully, "What do you think?"

"What's the point of my ideas? Am I the Lord of Zaun?" Hilco looked at Renata suspiciously and said, "Of course it all depends on Li Ke's opinion. If he wants to help, then we will help. If he wants to fight, then we will call on Piltover and go to Bilgewater today."

"Everything depends on what he thinks, not what we think."

Renata listened, took a deep breath, and smiled with difficulty: "You are right."

"Are you scolding me?" Hilco suddenly asked.

"How dare I?"

"It doesn't matter. We are Zaun people. We can curse when we need to. It's really nothing." Hillco looked at Renata, put his hands together on his chin, and said with a smile.

Renata shook her head, "I really don't. I respect you so much."

"It's better, Renata, don't let me catch you. Zaun will not be your toy, nor will it be a stepping stone for you to achieve your goals. Remember this."

Renata remained silent.

"Has Singed set out yet?"

"They have already set off. The team led by Willa is protecting Singed. They are expected to arrive in Navoli this afternoon, and we will be able to meet Li Ke in the evening." Renata replied.

Hilco nodded.

Singed has worked for him for many years, and now, all of Hilko's wishes have come true, and Singed's wishes will also come true.

Thinking of the serious doctor who was so excited that he couldn't speak, Hilco's mood suddenly improved a lot.

But then he thought of his daughter who had been away playing for more than a month and hadn't even sent back a letter, and Hilco's face began to sour again.

Seeing this, Renata Jane lowered her head, walked backwards towards the door, then turned around, pushed the door open and walked out.

When she went out, she saw Caitlin and Vi.

Renata was not surprised, as she saw this kind of scene every day, so she just nodded to Wei and Caitlyn.

Wei shrugged, and after Renata walked away, she whispered to Caitlin:

"Jinx is right. This woman is perfect for Hilco. They are just like people in the same bed."

"Really?" Caitlin smiled. She reached out and brushed her hair by her ear, looking at Wei. "What about us?"

As she spoke, Caitlin took a step forward. She was much taller than Wei. She lowered her head and looked at Wei. A streak of white dew swayed in front of Wei.

"Uh" Wei turned her head with difficulty and coughed: "Well, I remembered that I still have something to do, Caitlin, I will pick you up when I get off work in the evening."

After saying that, Wei ran away.

Caitlin pulled her collar, looked at Wei's departing back, and shook her head.

"You say one thing and one thing, but when you are asked to do something, you don't dare to do it."

"On this point, Wei, you are really not as good as Jinx."

Caitlin said to herself as she kicked the stone in front of her away.

"Boom!!!"

The shells destroyed the stone house. Sarah was leaning against the bunker with two guns in her hands. Far below her was Raven, who was looking at a strange object.

"Are you done? Damn it, Raven, I told you to study it earlier, but you just wouldn't listen to me!" Sarah yelled.

"Now you're blaming me for this?" Raven was holding a small notebook in his dusty hands. He lowered his head and stared at the words on the notebook. While reading, he took time to operate the objects next to him.

It was a square device with three Hexgems installed inside. There were various small buttons on the device, about dozens of buttons, which looked extremely complicated. In the middle of the top was a pure crystal screen.

"Who knew that the Baru people would help Gangplank! Isn't it said everywhere on the island that Illaoi and Gangplank broke up a long time ago?" Raven screamed, gritted his teeth, and pressed a button hard.

The middle screen on the device split, and two cute and beautiful blue butterflies flew out, disappearing in front of Raven in the blink of an eye.

When the device's screen is closed, a picture appears on it?

Raven's eyes widened. "Fuck, Zaun really gave us something good!"

Sarah stood up and pulled the trigger in a certain direction. The pistol spewed out blue fireworks, and the shotgun shells formed an area and attacked the pirates who were rushing up from the low position. "Ah!"

With one round of shooting, Sarah killed at least a dozen of Planck's men.

A lot? A lot, but it’s not enough!

Because of Illaoi's intervention, the gangs on Bilgewater who believed in the Baru culture joined Gangplank's camp. Now Sarah's team is fighting against the gangs of the entire Bilgewater.

She also looked down at the device in front of Raven, her beautiful eyes full of surprise, and asked, "What the hell is that?"

"It's that bastard K'Og. He used to recognize you as his queen, but after a word from the Baru people, he happily joined Gangplank."

"Did him."

"The Zaun people said this is their newest weapon. Since it is a weapon, it must be lethal. You can see how to operate it." Sarah said.

"Don't rush me, I'm studying it." Raven said unhappily, then he quickly looked at the instructions, and then he tried to start operating.

After pressing the button above, Raven suddenly discovered that the two largest buttons in the middle of the device were not meant to be pressed, but moved. After trying to move the buttons, Raven discovered that these two buttons could control the viewing angle of the image seen on the device screen.

After trying the operation, Raven guessed that the image was captured from the butterfly that just flew out, so, is this used to control the two butterflies that are only the size of fingers?
"This is not right, and this is not right either. What does this evil smiley face mean?" Raven looked at the instruction manual and found the corresponding buttons on the device. Then, he found the button that represented the evil smiley face.

Can’t the Zaun people just mark them with icons?
Why do they have such bad taste?!

What's with this smiling face?
Never mind, I’ll press it first!

Raven pressed the button with force that represented the evil smiley face in the instruction manual. The next moment, the device suddenly vibrated, and then a smiley face appeared on the screen in the middle for a moment. It was a blue smiley face.

Then the picture was restored again.

Sarah took a look and frowned: "Nothing happened!"

Raven also looked down at the screen and saw that nothing had happened on the screen. But when he was about to read the instructions to see if he had made any mistake in the operation, he saw on the screen that Keog's fat body suddenly fell down.

Raven was stunned. He moved his waist to enlarge the view and controlled the butterfly to get close to Keog's body. Then, he found a blood hole the size of a fingertip on Keog's neck on the back of his greasy collar.

It was really just a hole. There was no blood spurting out of the hole, but it was emitting horrible heat, and the surface was covered with red marks from burns.

Seeing this, Raven's body trembled.

He was about to speak when a voice came from Gangplank's camp.

"Lord K'Og is dead!"

"Damn it, they were the ones who shot me!"

Sarah was stunned and turned her head to look at Raven. She saw that his face was full of fear and he was looking at her.

"Boss, the people of Zaun really gave us an amazing thing. I will recognize Xierko as my godfather from now on. He can even let us use this kind of thing. He treats me better than my own father!"

"This thing can snipe the target on the screen!" Raven said in shock, gasping for air.

Sarah's eyes lit up, and she reached out to push down the captain's hat on her head. She quickly slid down the hillside and came to Raven. She pushed him away, sat in front of the device, and said, "You tell me, I'll do it. Let me see what's going on."

"Okay, you do this first, and then..."

Then, in Planck's camp—

"Marvin, how the hell can you fall down by yourself? Hey, Marvin? Marvin, what's wrong with you, Marvin!"

"Kang Sang, Kang Sang? Damn, how come Boss Kang Sang is dead? Who did it? Who did it?!"

"Only a few people died. That girl Sarah got weapons from Zaun. It must be him, uh huh."

"Londel the speaker is dead too!"

Back to Sarah, she was operating the device with trembling body. She was very smart, so she quickly mastered the use of the device under Raven's command. Seeing that she only needed to press a button, and then press it repeatedly, find the target she wanted to shoot on the screen, and the opponent would fall down, Sarah felt terrified.

If this thing is mass-produced, then, wouldn't the people of Zaun be invincible in this place?

Just when Sarah killed another bastard who said he would capture her, rape her, kill her, rape her again, and kill her again, the device in front of her suddenly made a beeping sound, and then a picture of a wronged face appeared on the screen. Then, the screen turned transparent, the picture disappeared, and split into two.

Two butterflies also flew past Sarah's eyes and landed inside the device, and the screen closed again.

Sarah looked at Raven, "What does this mean?"

"Let me see." Raven quickly lowered his head to look at the instructions.

After a moment, he said seriously: "This expression means that there is no energy left. The Hex Gem needs to be replaced, and the butterfly needs to be charged, which will take about three hours."

"We've only been using it for less than twenty minutes! And why can't you just write that it has no energy left?" Sarah said loudly after hearing this.

"How should I know!" Raven also complained.

This is not a normal weapon manual at all! There are strange smiley faces and various animal icons everywhere. Does Sarah know how uncomfortable it is for him to read it?

Of course Sarah didn't know!

But even as she was scolding, Sarah felt a lot more at ease.

It takes twenty minutes to use and three hours to charge. The battery life is too poor and it is impossible to use it at a long distance. This greatly reduces the assassination ability of this weapon.

Otherwise, with that finger-sized butterfly flying at an astonishingly fast speed, if its endurance is strong, Zaun could even be able to assassinate the Noxians while they are in Zaun, right?
But even so, this device opened up a new world for Sarah.

Sarah stood up, raised her gun, and said loudly: "It's okay. Times have changed, but we are on the ship of Zaun."

"But in the end, you still have to rely on the gun in your hand."

"Follow me and beat them all back!"

Sarah took the lead, climbed to a high place and spoke loudly.

------

"What's with all those weird weapons of theirs?"

In a tavern in Bilgewater, a tall woman with muscles as strong as bronze said in a deep voice.

Her eyes were as bright as copper bells as she stared at the "little old man" who was missing an arm and looked like a beggar.

"Where the hell am I supposed to go?" Planck cursed.

"Plank, I'm here to help you."

"When I begged you to help me, you didn't help me and you wanted to hurt me. Now I don't want your help anymore and I plan to get back at you on my own, but you come to help me, Illaoi, you're so fucking weird!" Gangplank said to Illaoi.

He looked dirty, smelled bad, was missing an arm, and wore tattered clothes. He looked like a sloppy and down-and-out old man, but his eyes were bright and his hair showed confidence and style.

It was indeed not his request that Ornn come to help him. No, that was not right.

At the beginning, he did go to Illaoi to beg him, and was very humble, almost kneeling down to Illaoi, but Illaoi ignored him and even accused the God of hurting him.

But after going through those reincarnation dreams, Planck has changed.

He became the high-spirited pirate he once was, and the fearless Planck when he first went out to sea.

Because of this, he really didn't ask Illaoi to help him.

But since Orloy was willing to help him, Gangplank naturally would not refuse.

Seeing Ornn's gaze turn cold, Gangplank snorted and said, "Those weird things are from Zaun. I don't know when that little bitch Sarah got in cahoots with Zaun and got money and weapons from them. Otherwise, do you think I would lose so miserably?"

"I admit that girl is very capable, and I regret not searching under the bed and catching her and hanging her when I killed her, but it's too late to say anything now, isn't it?"

"Now, it's your turn to attack. With the weapons of the Zauns, the Bibi Islanders can't attack them." Gangplank said seriously. He looked at Illaoi and continued, "This is sending the Bibi Islanders to their deaths."

Illaoi closed her eyes and when she opened them she looked at the Baru beside her.

"Send the snake caller to the seashore."

"Really, this is against the rules."

Illaoi picked up the wine glass, took a gulp, and said loudly, "Rules? This is the Blue Flame Islands. She uses Zaun weapons, which is the rule?"

"Stop talking nonsense. My words are the rules."

Priest Baru was stunned, and glanced at Planck. Thinking that this man had withstood the test of the Snake Mother, she said no more and nodded, "Yes, I understand."

"You should have done this a long time ago." Planck also took a big sip of wine and said cheerfully.
