Chapter 739: Employment
Trist was the first to hear the source of the voice, but he really didn't want to say yes.
Garhwal "Sharknose", Birgewater's informant but also Sarah's stake - the Flame Tide mission was received from Gavahl, and that mission nearly cost Trist his death in Birgewater.
Originally, according to the personalities of Trist and Graves, Garval should have suffered retaliation.
But after all, Garwal is Sarah's subordinate, and Sarah has mastered Bilgewater, so Trist and Graves simply leave Bilgewater and go to Shurima to change circumstances.
Coincidentally, the Twin Cities began to develop Shurima, and the Explorers Guild of Piltover recruited explorers, and they clearly marked the prices of many of Shurima's legendary items—in this case, Trist and Graves became supernumeraries affiliated with the Pitt Explorers Guild.
Trist and Graves don't need to be organized or famous, and they are more like "gunslingers" during expeditions - when the big men of Leather City need some antiquities to accomplish their goals or decorate their study, Trist and Graves can bring them back if they are willing to make a bid.
Moreover, the two men always kept their mouths tight, and they would carefully keep travel diaries to facilitate the braggings of the owners of those antiquities, and this kind of intimate service earned them a good reputation and also brought a large number of tasks.
Trist and Graves were paid handsomely to make their way into Pi City's high society – and although Catherine voted against the proposal to pardon Graves in the reconstituted Supreme Council, it did not prevent the outlaw maniac from re-whitewashing......
(Unlike Zaun's radical change, Piltover, who was finally forced to accept the Rhodes Twin Cities plan, was not radically transformed, and although the Supreme Council was replaced, there was no real change in the social structure in the strict sense of the word, and the law was only slightly changed, and the Supreme Council still had the power of amnesty under the proposal — and most of the charges Graves suffered in Piltover were sabotage and robbery, and although Catherine did not like him, there was no way to prevent the Supreme Council from voting.) )
When the duo was wandering before, they tested robbery, stealing, and gambling, which was risky, and they couldn't live in one place for a long time.
But now, since taking over the Explorers' Guild, while Trist and Graves' work is risky, it is at least more rewarding and legitimate.
Both Trist and Graves enjoyed the process of "legal archaeology", although it was Piltover who handed over the relics of Shurima.
In this case, the two naturally began to break with the past, and they did not want to go back to the embarrassing days of the past.
But now, it seems that Trouble has found them on its own initiative - the moment he meets Garvar, Trist confirms that he is really in trouble.
"Ah, old friend." Twisting his neck a little stiffly, Trist slipped his right hand into his pocket, "I didn't expect to see you in Phi Cheng - how about we go and have a drink?" I'm in for a treat! ”
It's a pity that Garwal didn't give Trist any face, he stretched out his left hand like an iron tong and grabbed Trist's right arm directly.
"Don't try to slip away." Garwal lowered his tone, "This is the mission of the real big shots, and you can't hide from it." ”
“…… No kidding. When his right hand was grabbed and he couldn't take out the cards to teleport and escape, Trist could only pretend to shake his head easily, "This is Piltover, I'm a law-protected Pitz city!" ”
As if to strengthen the persuasiveness of his language, Trist also pointed to a golden glittering emblem on his chest, [Honorary Citizen of Piltover Trist].
A once notorious liar who is now a moral model and honorary citizen of Pit, this topic full of magical realism did not make Garwal smile in the slightest, he just shook his head calmly: "It's useless, Trist, even if you are a member of the Supreme Council, you can't refuse that person's task." ”
The word Supreme Council stunned Trist.
Theoretically, the Supreme Council had everything in Piltover's hands, and even the legendary guardian of the city, Lady Camille, would have to take into account the opinions of the representatives of the various powers, which had been united.
No one can disobey the Supreme Council.
Oh no, there is.
Trist suddenly remembered the earth-shaking change a few years ago, when a bigwig upset the order of Zaun and Leather City, and then reunited the two cities together.
And this big guy ...... I had a relationship with Trist.
Is Garhwal bragging?
No, it won't.
Trist is well aware of the relationship between the big guy and Sarah in the Flame Tide - since Garhwal is a subordinate of the Queen of Doom, unless the two sides break up, they will not tell such a lie.
Realizing this, Trist raised his hand in embarrassment.
"Okay, okay." As if to show his sincerity, Trist spread his fingers and flipped his hands, indicating that he was definitely not hiding a card or anything, "It seems that I am not qualified to refuse this kind of task." ”
"A wise choice." Garwal nodded, "That saves us all the effort—now, go meet your partner, the one who asked for the two of you by name." ”
"Graves doesn't have to be in a bar." In the face of Garval's request, Trist shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly, "Today is not the time for his gun maintenance, he doesn't know where to get drunk into a puddle of mud, if we want to find him, I'm afraid we need to spend some effort......"
"Then look for it one by one!" Garwal unceremoniously interrupted Trist's request, "It's an order!" ”
In this way, the dejected Trist took Garval and swept through the bar like an anti-pornography law enforcement - it was the afternoon, and although there were not many people in the bar, it was also very troublesome to find.
Searching for bars from bar to bar, Trist honestly followed Garvar the whole time, and just after Garwal pushed open the door of a bar called "Fist", he noticed that something was wrong.
This bar is full of women – and all of them are very strong women.
According to Garval's understanding, Graves would not come to this kind of bar.
However, just as Garwal was about to turn and leave, Trist behind him suddenly spoke.
"Look what I see." Trist's feigned frivolous voice gave Garval a sense of foreboding, "Snapshot, this is the headline of the famous Scalp City Daily - our law enforcement lady skips work during the day!" ”
At the same time, a blinding white light flashed—and when the white light ended, Garvar was amazed...... I was already surrounded.
