Chapter 299: The Zongji Empire in the Land of Runeterra
"Well, let's surrender!"
Surrender?
Surrender!
This phrase came from the mouth of Aloy.
The believers looked incredulous.
"The real one!? Are you sure? ”
A priest asked cautiously.
"Cair is right, we believe in Kabolos, but he really can't save us from death, nor can he make our lives better, and now everything we have is our own hard work."
Aloy's faith had been shaken since the departure of the Divine Knowledge, and with the fact that she had already betrayed the doctrine twice for Planck's sake, she was no longer a qualified believer.
"The real one..."
The priests wanted to say something more, but Aloy signaled that they didn't need to say more, and after letting go of so much and not having too much burden, Aloy came to Planck's side without any worries.
"Aloy..."
Planck looked at his old lover, but couldn't take her into his arms.
"Needless to say, we have to live, together."
Time gradually passed, the half-hour time limit had arrived, Zhang Chen crushed the icicle with one foot, and he returned to the ground again.
"How's it going?"
"We surrender!"
A group of prisoners knelt down, and there were still a few who didn't, and that was the sacrifices of the Bajou Temple.
"Are you not surrendering?"
Zhang Chen asked in a dangerous tone.
"We just want to verify one thing, if you can nod your head, then we are willing to surrender, if you don't agree, we better die."
This group of believers is really annoying, there are so many beeps.
"Tell me about it."
Zhang Chen motioned for them to state the conditions.
"We want to keep the temple of Barjou and continue to believe in Kapolos."
"Oh, then you'd better die."
A few sacrifices, Zhang Chen alone rewarded them with a sword qi, impartially, just rewarded to the center of the eyebrows.
"Well, since you are all willing to surrender, then I will tell you the truth, the moment you agree to surrender, your life is not your own."
Zhang Chen's words were incomprehensible to most of them.
"Like, Planck, you're playing fake surrender with me?"
Previously, Zhang Chen's spiritual power was dense throughout the dock, and Zhang Chen naturally knew the conversation between them.
"Keep your eyes open and look good."
"Uh~ah!"
"What's going on... My body, good, so painful! ”
In an instant, more than a dozen pirates suddenly rolled in pain on the spot.
"If you agree, then your life and death are all in my thoughts. Be my subordinate, don't have so many rules, don't betray me, and you'll be fine. ”
After making it clear, Zhang Chen left the dock, since they surrendered, then they have their own belonging, and someone will come to take them in at that time.
On the second day, the whole of Bilgewater Bay was occupied by a force.
Bilgewater Bay is the most important place in the Bilgewater region, with slaughterhouses and bone bays.
This was the source of the wealth of the Birgewater region, the route of all sorts of merchant ships, and now several merchant ships were blocked at the mouth of the bay, and they had to be checked to make sure that there were no fugitives and other filthy items on board before they were allowed to enter the bay.
At each wharf, there was a simple shed, which was a simple exchange, and in the future, all merchants who came to and from Bilgewater would trade on the exchange and pay a certain amount of taxes.
More than ever, they didn't have to worry that someone would suddenly rush out of the dark alley to rob them, or even take their lives.
All this is not Zhang Chen's idea, he threw the renovation project of Bilgewater to his subordinates, whether it is politics or others, he does not have to worry about it, and the people of Bilgewater will put these great achievements on Zhang Chen's head, this is the benefit of sharing worries.
Three days have passed in the blink of an eye, and the improvement of Bilgewater Bay has changed significantly, and everyone who shows up here has a satisfied smile on their face.
There is no threat hidden in the alleys, and wages have risen slightly, which is enough for the people here.
Zhang Chen came to the Casino of Destiny to make an appointment.
"You came, you didn't leave, it looks like you figured it out, right?"
For the three men and guns, Zhang Chen did not use the "dark contract", after all, they are now in friendly relations, unlike Planck, they are prisoners of war!
"That's right, we have also seen the changes in Bilgewater Bay in the past few days, and we believe that Bilgewater will become the next Pitoverw in your hands."
Trist raised his glass and expressed his affirmation of Zhang Chen.
"The City Guard still lacks a management position, Graves, are you interested?"
"City Guards? Of course! I can be a city guard too, haha. ”
"Sarah, our navy is very short of personnel, and if you want, Fitz will be your partner in the future."
"Oh, forget it, that little ghost, I can't stand him, if I change partners, I think I'll be more than happy."
"Trist, you... Pick one for yourself, I can't really figure out what you want. ”
"Me? I'm fit to be an idler, and just sit back and watch Bilgewater become more prosperous. ”
"Well, I've planned it, Bilgewater will only keep one casino in the future, and expand it a hundred times, and the task of running this casino will be left to you, how about it?"
"Gladly, sir."
In this way, the Bilgewater area was under Zhang Chen's command.
After a month's effort, Zhang Chen's men, along with the residents of Bilgewater, and the merchants who came and went, made it a haven of refuge for smugglers, raiders, and criminals, but now the rule of law is strict and the people live and work in peace and contentment.
The merchants who came to Bilgewater again couldn't believe what they saw.
Passing merchants spread the news of Bilgewater's changes to every corner of the Runeterra lands, and some people who didn't believe it came to see it for themselves.
On this day, the people of Bilgewater sang and danced, and even the prisoners who committed minor crimes in the prison were released, because, today, Bilgewater was founded!
Soji Empire!
It's hard to imagine that there could be another empire in the Land of Runeterra, besides Demacia, Noxus, and Shurima.
Freljord is a matriarchal clan, Ionian is a regional province republic, and Titan Peak is a theocracy.
Now Bilgewater, no, it should be called the Zongji Empire, as soon as this empire appears, I'm afraid the Runeteres Land will not be peaceful again.
The founding of Bilgewater spread to every corner of the Runeterrass along with the passing merchant ships.
