Void Beetle Evolution Guide

The ship to Noxus was much easier to find than the one to Freljord. Elise took Iseult and said goodbye to everyone else. She did not participate in the subsequent operation, but stayed at the dock to look for a captain who was willing to give them a ride.

The group arrived at Pickpocket Square, an open area consisting of many shacks and a very prosperous market.

The shacks floated in the water, crowded together in groups, with their eaves interlaced, rising and falling under the push of the waves, as if whispering to each other.

Even in the morning after the Haunting Night, people still set up various stalls on the sides of the connected ships.I want to be without a plum, without a plum, without a forest......

Butchers, wine dealers, pirates, bounty hunters and surly vagabonds flocked here from all over the world.

Clearly visible from almost anywhere in Bilgewater, this is the island city's trading center.

"Look, the bounty list is right there, that sign covered with wanted posters." Sarah, who was leading the way, pointed to the northeast corner of the square.

Several people looked in the direction she pointed. The bounty board was five or six meters long, with a silver sea snake border, lanterns hanging from the fangs of the snake's head, and crossed scimitars entwined around its two tails. It looked very local.

The most valuable heads were arranged in order from top to bottom. Their names were engraved in large letters on wooden plaques, which were then hung on the bounty list, with the value of the head marked on the right.

Planck's name was the first to be mentioned. His bounty was the highest and he was the only one worth seven figures, and it started with seven.

It stands out from the crowd and is very eye-catching.

"Gangplank is worth so much money!" Ahri looked up at the high bounty in the top column and exclaimed.

"That guy is very arrogant and likes to watch the bounty on his head continue to rise. Every time he returns to Bilgewater with a full load, he will pin his latest wanted poster on the bounty board for everyone to see." Sarah replied.

"Is this a lot of money?" Kasha asked. She had made millions in a short time in Drift City, so she had no real sense of money. Unfortunately, the money could only be spent in Drift City and was useless if she took it out.

"This is a golden siren. Just one is enough to give you a bath in rum."

"I don't want to bathe in wine."

"Just an analogy..."

Kaisa's seriousness left Sarah speechless, while Ahri covered her mouth and laughed secretly after listening to their conversation.

"Okay, let's get down to business. While we're together, collect the bounty. I want to see who dares to come to my door and kill him to establish my authority."

Sarah looked stern, and she took out a torn sack from the insect nest, then threw it in front of the bounty payee.

What's inside speaks for itself. To some, it's bloody, but to others, this is what money should look like.

The teller in the tricorn hat put down his quill, glanced at the torn sack that was oozing blood, then looked at the familiar face in front of him and greeted Sarah jokingly.

“Hey, Miss Fortune. The Haunting is just over and you’re already opening?”

"As for making money, if you don't make more when you are young, you won't be able to lift a knife when you are old." Sarah responded casually.

"You are really not afraid of death. When the dead passed by my door, I hid under the bed and didn't dare to breathe. I should thank Mother Hu for blessing me for being alive." The cashier was very talkative. He talked to Sarah while opening the torn sack, completely unaware of what he would face next.

"Speaking of the Harrowing, that damn Gangplank actually colluded with the undead and dragged the entire Bilgewater into it in order to punish those who offended him. It's really a sin..." He suddenly covered his mouth and lowered his voice, "Alas, I just said a few words, please don't tell anyone else."

"Don't worry, he will never hear it." Sarah smiled meaningfully.

Her answer left the cashier a little confused. When he poured the head out of the sack and took a closer look, he was so frightened by the impressive face that he fell to the ground. He subconsciously moved his limbs away. His brain was unable to process the information he saw.

"P...Planck?!! Did you kill him?" His loud shouting attracted the attention of everyone around him.

"Mother Hu! Is that really Gangplank's head?!"

"I was wondering why the Harrowing went by so quickly. It turns out that Gangplank was beheaded!"

"It's really hard to believe that Bilgewater is about to be turned upside down again."

Amid the gazes of others, Sarah remained calm and wished that everyone in the city would know that it was she who did it.

Gangplank has always been eccentric, and now Sarah is just imitating him. If you want to get along in Bilgewater, it is also important to have a loud voice.

"Everyone has recognized that this is Planck. You can't say he is a fake, right? So, can you pay the reward?" Sarah asked.

"This... this amount is too large. It may take several batches to pay it all. I still have to negotiate with the Iron Hook Gang and ask them to take some gold coins from the warehouse, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to collect this huge amount of money..."

"No hurry, just take as much as you can. You have given me nothing less over the years, so I trust you to keep the accounts."

Sarah swore that she had not meant to embarrass the teller, but seeing him, who used to be talkative, become hesitant under the tremendous pressure, she couldn't help but feel a twisted pleasure in her heart.

While the teller went to get the money, Sarah listened to the reactions of the people around her.

Many people have been dissatisfied with Gangplank's brutal rule for a long time, and they cheered when they heard the news of his downfall, but more people expressed concern about the chaos that would follow in Bilgewater.

Without Gangplank's suppression, the rival captains would immediately fall into conflict, all trying to take control of the city.

The already lawless Bilgewater has only become more chaotic, with countless law-abiding civilians affected by the fighting between gangs.

Thinking of this, Sarah suddenly felt that the responsibility on her shoulders was heavier.

She actually didn't crave wealth and status that much, nor did she have the ambition to be the best. She just couldn't bear to see this port city in complete chaos. So she followed the Wild Hunt's wishes and stepped forward to take the position of the Queen of the Sea.

Chapter 166: The Waterfall in the Bathroom

=====================================

Sarah and her group left the Pickpocket Square, each holding a bag of heavy gold coins. Because there were so many people around, they couldn't just throw the bags of money into the insect nest space, so they could only hold them in their hands.

However, the weight of the purse is reassuring, and the clinking sound of the gold coins in the bag is very pleasant to the ear. No one would complain that it is too heavy.

"Planck's bounty is still too high. What we have is less than one percent, and it's already too heavy to hold. The rest of the bounty will be packed in boxes and shipped here, but where I live now has no room for it." Sarah said as she weighed her purse while walking on the road.

"It is indeed necessary." The Wild Hunt had no interest in money, but he was not the kind of person who would just leave money on the side of the road.

"I think we need to find a ready-made mansion to house this wealth."

"Have you thought of who to look for to perform the operation?"

"There's a mountaintop villa east of Bilgewater. It looks pretty good to me."

A few people looked in the direction Sarah said, and found a mansion converted from a ship hull on the cliff to the east. The balcony protruded out of the cliff, so the view must be very wide, able to take in the entire Bilgewater Port.

"What a great place. You've been eyeing it for a long time, right?"

"That mansion belongs to a notorious gangster. When he learned of Gangplank's downfall, he would definitely take the opportunity to come to power. I just took the initiative." Sarah did not respond directly to the Wild Hunt's question, but instead presented her own reasoning.

"It's up to you. Just do what you've decided as soon as possible. I'll only be in Bilgewater for a few days."Mei I want to be in the air without Lin Youyong......

Kaisa and Ahri have relatively high moral standards. Listening to the two of them discussing how to commit a crime, everyone looked at each other for a while, unable to get a word in.

However, there is no law in Bilgewater. Whoever has the bigger fist has the final say. Only a few vigilantes are still upholding justice.

Without laws, it wouldn't be considered a crime, not to mention that Sarah's targets were all bad guys with many lives on their hands.

On the way to Sarah's residence, they passed through a dark alley filled with sewage, and the three were surrounded by a dozen strong men from front and back.

"As expected, they are here." Sarah looked at these masked burly men who suddenly appeared and spoke sarcastically, "Guys from the Iron Hook Gang, don't think I can't recognize you just because you cover your faces. I can smell the unique stench of the slaughterhouse docks on you from two blocks away."

"Miss Fortune, did you really kill Gangplank?" Several guys with chains and scimitars approached and asked in a bad tone.

"Why? I cut off his head. Are you remnants still willing to work for him?"

"No, I hope he dies. But if he dies, other captains will definitely kill us, so we brothers must consider our own way out."

"So you're after my money? Gangplank's warehouse has enough wealth to buy out the entire Bilgewater, but you're coming to me instead of picking it up there for free. What's the logic?"

"Don't treat people like fools. Once the news of Gangplank's death gets out, the warehouse will be sealed off immediately. If we go there now, we'll probably run into other local tyrants who will try to rob us of our money. I think we'll just get shot to death."

It seemed that because Sarah didn't have a gun and there were only a few women around, the bandits from the Hook Gang were not afraid and chatted with Sarah for a while longer.

"In the end, you think I'm easy to bully... If that's the case, don't blame me for using you to establish my authority."

Sarah didn't let others interfere in her affairs. She raised her hand and shot the person who spoke.

The plasma bullet penetrated his chest, followed by the wet sound of his internal organs falling to the ground.

Without the interference of the Wild Hunt, Sarah was quite nimble and quickly dealt with the remaining bandits. She didn't spare any of them, and their bodies were scattered all over the alley filled with sewage.

Kassa subconsciously wanted to release the eyeless bees to clean up the corpses, but Sarah stopped her.

"Leave them alone. Let people see how they die."

“……” After understanding Sarah’s intention, Kasa looked at the corpse a few more times and finally remained silent.

"Hurry up and find a place to take a shower. I can't stand it anymore." Ali urged them to leave. Even though she didn't do anything just now, her body was inevitably splashed with blood, which was very dirty.

Following Sarah, the two walked along many dangerous zigzag paths along the cliff, and crossed several straits on high-altitude wooden bridges.

Sharks swam in the dark river between the straits. They left the slums of the downtown area bordering the sea and came to the upper town area frequented by people with money in their pockets. Finally, they stopped in front of a store.

Under the eaves of the shop door, a heavy copper-inlaid wooden plaque was hung with an iron chain. On it was engraved a pair of crossed guns with an exaggerated peach heart at the angle of the gun barrels. It was obvious at a glance that this was Sarah's gun shop.

Bilgewater Bay is surrounded by precipitous straits and towering cliffs. People build houses on the ruins of temples or on steep terrain, which serve as residences and businesses. The houses are connected by flying plank roads.

Due to the lack of natural resources for construction, most of the building materials in Bilgewater are brought, found or stolen by people. Sarah's gun shop is built with scrapped hulls, which looks like a ship stuck on the top of a mountain.

"I didn't realize you were a boss lady." Ali exclaimed. The store looked quite large from the outside, which was a pleasant surprise.

"My family inherited this skill and I make a living. I don't want to keep idle people, so I opened a shop and let my employees run it for me."

Sarah used the bounties she earned over the years to open a gun shop on the diving cliff and made it her base.

After all, one person cannot fight against Planck, she must develop her own power, and to develop power she needs a base.

Disguising the base as a gun shop would also allow her to repair weapons more conveniently, killing two birds with one stone. Unfortunately, the pair of muskets passed down from her mother sank with the Siren.

"Sarah, you are still alive?! I felt like the sky was falling when I saw Gangplank coming back in the ghost ship!" Seeing Sarah come in, the first mate Raven immediately stood up to greet her, unable to believe that she could come back alive.

Raven was a middle-aged black man with ordinary appearance and ordinary clothes. He had no memorable features and was just like the rest of the crowd, inconspicuous - and this was precisely the result of his years of deliberate practice.

Despite his unprepossessing appearance, he's Sarah's right-hand man and has basically seen every dark corner and crevice in Bilgewater.

"Yes, I'm still alive, but unfortunately the brothers who went with me can't come back. I'm sorry for them." Sarah lowered her brows, her face full of guilt because her impulse killed others.

"There's nothing we can do about it. Going against Gangplank is like seeking death. I advised you not to go... Well, let's not talk about this. Just come back. If you don't come back, we brothers will divide the money and run away."

Seeing her like this, Raven couldn't bear it and said a few words to comfort her.

As a result, Sarah threw a bag of heavy gold coins in front of him, and some of the restless gold coins rolled out and ran around the room.

Raven's eyes were immediately dazzled by the bright golden light. After coming to his senses, he quickly closed the shop door to make sure no one passing by saw this scene.

"Brother Raven, is this enough money for you to share?" Sarah asked.

"Where...where did this money come from?" Raven breathed rapidly, even though he had rarely seen so many gold coins.

“Don’t hide it. This is the bounty I got for Gangplank’s head. It won’t be long before the whole of Bilgewater knows about it.”

"No? Did you really kill Gangplank?"

"Why, you're not happy that I killed him?"

"I was just too surprised."

"In fact, I was able to kill Gangplank with the help of the two people next to me. Well, I still have things to do. You can take half of this money and send it to the families of the brothers who died in battle as a condolence payment. Share the rest with the other brothers. You have been with me for several years. Even if you have no merits, you have worked hard. Now that the great revenge has been taken, it's time to give you some bonuses."

"What do you mean by this little money..."

Raven was still struggling with Sarah's concept of money, while the latter had already led the other two to take a shower.

Kasa followed Sarah down the stairs to the lower floor and saw the bathroom in the corner. She heard the sound of water before she entered.

Ali thought someone was taking a shower inside, but she didn't expect Sarah to push the door open and come in, causing her to subconsciously look away.

"Come in, there's no one inside."

After hearing Sarah's reminder, Ali opened his eyes and looked into the bathroom.

The bathroom is cleverly designed. It is next to a small waterfall on the mountain. You can stand directly under it to take a shower. The sound of water just now was the sound of the waterfall falling on the rocks.

"Then I won't be polite."

The stickiness all over her body prompted Ahri to quickly take off all her clothes and go into the bathroom. She covered her ears and went under the waterfall to wash her hair. She didn't mind at all that the Wild Hunt would see this erotic scene.

"Let's take a shower together." Sarah took off her cloak, revealing her perfect figure, and said to Kasa.

The nine tails were covered in dust and blood, and it would take a lot of time to clean them. And judging from the situation, Ahri would not come out without rubbing off a layer of skin. Sarah had other things to do later, so she didn't have time to wait for Ahri to finish washing slowly.

"Okay." Kassa took off her skin armor after hearing that. Although her body was still relatively clean, taking a bath was indeed a pleasure.

Seeing Kasa coming to the bottom of the waterfall naked, Sarah also took off her skin armor. The moment she touched the water, for some reason, she had a bad feeling in her heart.

I always feel that... the Wild Hunt is a little too obedient, which is inconsistent with the impression she had before.

With such a "good" opportunity, will the Wild Hunt let her go?
