Chapter 362: The Present and the Future
Bill Geewater, Ascension Tavern.
"Captain, the ship has arrived, but the Empire wants you to visit the Doom Tavern at the top of the hill in person."
Lucian walked in through the door, reporting to Sivir as usual.
"Doom Tavern..."
Sivir looked at the 'new mission chapter' revealed by the Book of Ascension, his brow furrowed slightly.
These days, relying on strength and management, they have gained a foothold in Bilgewater.
Not long ago, their Ascension Pirate Regiment also ordered 3 ships similar to the Ascension from the Empire, but because they were all ships that had been withdrawn from the Imperial fleet, they could be in place immediately.
With these ships, they are bound to become the third-ranked power in Bilgewater today, but above them, the power of the Empire and the Pirate Empress is far beyond their reach.
They ascended to the pirate group and secretly killed a large number of pirate groups with no background and high bounties, so that they had the money to buy 3 imperial ships.
But not long ago, they heard that Sarah had already got 5 ships, and there were probably more that had not been obtained but had already placed orders.
Sivir played with the crossblade in his hand and decided to go this time to see what the empire and the empress meant.
She wants to make money in order to enjoy everything that money can bring her, and she is not very ambitious in nature.
If making money is just for the sake of this meaningless arms race, then she might as well take the ship back and sweep Shurima.
"I'll go myself." Sivir replied to Lucian, who was still waiting.
"I'll go with you." Lucian proposed.
"Come on, you've had a lot of things with Senna lately." Xavier raised an eyebrow, "Now only the internal members know that we are the Ascended Pirates, and externally, we all claim to be the Sentinels of Light. ”
Sivir fulfilled his promise to Lucian by having Senna and Lucian train the Sentinels of Light and recruit men in Bilgewater.
Generally speaking, becoming a Sentinel of Light will go through a lot of vetting before it will be able to try to master a specialized weapon.
But after Senna and Lucian saw the battle between Foyego and Naga Capolos, their minds changed.
What if you have mastered the weapons of the Sentinels of Light, in a battle of that level, you won't even have a chance to intervene.
It is better to recruit more people and develop the power to a stronger one.
At least when there are enough ships, they can still stop a strong man of the level of Foyego at sea.
That's what they've heard from the other pirates, and Seraphine and a team of them have crushed the black mist that Foyego has brought with them, and they've left unscathed.
Therefore, Lucian and Senna realized that more people make more money, which is the last word.
"Good!"
Lucian nodded, didn't say much, and turned to walk outside.
After getting along these days, he found that Sivir was definitely a good leader.
Love money but not stingy, and even use his own small treasury to give them money for development, such a leader is rare.
Xavier just smiled as he watched Lucian leave.
Sitting on the chair, she thought carefully about the reason why Seraphine was looking for her, and after thinking for a long time, she didn't have too good ideas, so she got up and walked towards the top of the mountain.
Billgwater Peak, Doom Tavern.
At this moment, the Doom Tavern has been completely renovated, and under the renovation of Zben, it has been transformed from a spacious dilapidated site to a three-story exquisite building.
The first floor is still the decoration of the tavern, but a lot of technological elements have been added, and a lot of equipment has been used.
On the central screen, a color screen writes information about the Bilgewater Bounty List in real time.
Sarah's name topped the list, while Sivir's name was parachuted in second place.
From the second floor, there are small rooms, and the central area on the second floor is connected to the first floor, and the situation below can be seen from the small rooms.
In it, you can not only feel the liveliness of the first floor, but also have your own private space.
The third floor is separated, providing private rooms for rent, as long as the tenant asks, whether it is men, women, food, wine or even sea beasts, will be satisfied.
In the largest room on the third floor, Seraphine sat on a soft sofa reading a book.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, he raised his head and looked at Sarah, who came in with a teacup, and was slightly surprised:
"Lady Sarah, do you have anything to do with me?"
"I heard that you detained her ship in order to invite Sivir, so I came to inquire about it. This is tea brewed for you, brewed from spirit leaves imported from Ionia. ”
Sarah smiled and brought the teacup to Seraphine, who had straightened her identity since the last time Acacia had happened.
The girl in front of her, although not as old as her, is already one of the few people standing at the apex of the Noxus Empire.
"Thank you!"
Seraphine took the tea with a smile, squinted and took a sip, the fragrance of tea in her mouth made her eyes light slightly:
"This is the taste of tea that I drank every time I drank it at the teacher's! A feeling of a rich fragrance blooming in your mouth. ”
"If you like it, if you like it."
Sarah stood aside and looked curiously at the book that had been put down by Seraphine.
The Power of Faith
Seeing that Seraphine was reading magic-related books even with others, Sarah couldn't help but shake her head inwardly, which strengthened her path to renounce force.
People who are more talented than you work harder than you, so what's the point of your efforts, it's better to think about other directions.
"Inviting Sivir is something for the Empire to do. Moreover, I did not detain her boat, which was still three days away, but Mr. Lucian came to ask and told him. ”
Seraphine put down her teacup and did not hide her purpose in inviting Sivir.
"Matters of the Empire." Sarah's brows furrowed slightly, and her eyes became more interested, "Is there anything I can do to help?" ”
Seraphine smiled dumbly: "I can't help with this, it's my teacher who wants to transport an item to Shurima, and only Sivir here is familiar with Shurima." ”
"Shurima..."
Sarah regretted that she would still be able to mix in matters of force and prestige.
If it was about Shurima, she wasn't familiar with it.
As if sensing Sarah's mood, Seraphine smiled and said:
"Bilgewater is better here than Shurima, at least it's free and comfortable."
"That's right." Sarah smiled and said, "I still have a lot of things to do, so I won't bother Master Seraphine." ”
"Shura Warrior God"
"See you later, Lady Sarah."
Seraphine watched Sarah leave, a chuckle on her lips.
Sarah has slowly changed from the Pirate Empress Bilgewater who had a little idea at the beginning, to the current Noxian Pirate Empress.
If you can't beat it, you will join, and then you will become stronger and surpass while waiting for the opportunity.
Most people always think so, but at the end of the day, how many people don't get lost...
