Chat group: People are in the sandbox, the system just ran away

"You might be a good fighter, but that's useless. In Bilgewater, getting around relies on background and influence. No matter how good you are at fighting, even if you can beat ten or a hundred people, can you really beat a thousand? Here, you're in great danger, isolated and helpless."

Sarah was not just thinking about the possible lucrative reward from Li Xuan. She also liked Li Xuan very much, so she gave him earnest advice. Otherwise, if she were an ordinary person, she would have left long ago, and after suffering, she would have shown up and made a fortune.

"What if I can really beat a thousand or ten thousand? Besides, I still have some things to do here."

Sarah didn't believe Li Xuan's boast at all. She just thought he was trying to show off in front of her beauty.

"Just brag, even if you still want to fight ten thousand times, forget it. What are you doing here? Tell me, I'll help you. When you're done, leave with me as soon as possible."

Sarah didn't know what was wrong with her. In the past, she would have left in anger when faced with such ungrateful people, but when it came to Li Xuan, she repeatedly and kindly advised him. Could it be that she was getting older and really wanted a man?

Chapter 405 Sarah's Disbelief

"Is that so? That saves me a lot of trouble. Do you know that island that suddenly appeared near Bilgewater in the past few days? Has anyone been there? What's going on inside?"

"So you came for that island? That's not surprising. After all, an island appeared out of nowhere. As far as I can remember, that was the first time I've seen one. It's probably the biggest news in Bilgewater these days. Although some people have landed on that island, the endings haven't been very good. I heard that the island is full of all kinds of terrifying monsters, and only one in a hundred people can escape. Now, basically not many people are willing to go there. After all, only a fool would want to fight those terrifying monsters. I advise you not to be too curious, but to leave Bilgewater with me safely."

Faced with Sarah's earnest advice, Li Xuan remained unmoved. As he expected, he had placed the Warcraft Forest close to Bilgewater, thinking of using Warcraft as a barrier. Now it seems that his arrangement was very effective.

"Thank you, beautiful. I appreciate your kindness. As a reward for the information you provided, let me fulfill your wish."

Oh my God, Sarah felt like she must have gone crazy. Facing someone as ungrateful as Li Xuan, if it were anyone else, she would definitely have fired two shots to give the other person an explanation.

But when it came to Li Xuan, she couldn't bring herself to do it, for some reason. It was natural. Having grown up in Bilgewater, she'd been able to protect herself beneath her stunning beauty, relying on the ruthlessness that came from her closed heart. Li Xuan's allure, however, had, for the first time, opened her heart, sealed for over a decade, allowing him inside. Naturally, it was difficult for Sarah to be cruel to him.

After all, most of the people she faced in the past were a bunch of scum. Even the bounty hunters under her were not good people. They only came to her side because of the benefits, and they might even be eyeing her. In this case, with such a group of scum as a comparison, Sarah's favorability towards Li Xuan naturally increased wildly.

"Oh, you think you can fulfill my wish? Forget it, just go back home. Picking up girls is not something you can do with just big words. I, bounty hunter Sarah, am not one of those noble ladies you can hook up with just a few words."

Sarah felt a little funny. Although she was well aware of her beauty and many people wanted to show off in front of her, Li Xuan's behavior still made her unhappy. Did he think she was an innocent aristocratic lady?

"Isn't he just a pirate leader? What does he matter? Miss Sarah, what if I really have the ability to kill him?"

Li Xuan stretched out his hand and pulled the defenseless Sarah into his arms, whispering in her ear,

"Who are you? How did you know this? I never thought that after traveling around Bilgewater for so long, I, Sarah, would fall for a man's beauty trap today."

Even though Sarah had a high favorability towards Li Xuan, she noticed something was wrong with his abrupt behavior. She tried to break free from Li Xuan's arms immediately, but it was of no use. Sarah had to continue to maintain this ambiguous posture and whispered in Li Xuan's ear.

The others in the tavern initially thought Sarah was out to antagonize them and earn a commission, but now it seemed clear that Sarah had taken a liking to this gigolo. Could it be that bounty hunter Sarah was planning to retire and marry a nobleman as his wife? That's right, with Sarah's beauty and skills, wouldn't it be easy for her to control the gigolo of a noble family? Truly enviable, that gigolo.

"I, I'm just an ordinary person who came to Bilgewater to have some fun and learn some things."

Sarah didn't believe Li Xuan's answer at all. How could an ordinary person know the hatred between her and Planck, the Disaster of the Ocean?

When Sarah was a child, trade activities began to emerge on the northern beaches of Blue Flame Island, which attracted the attention of pirates. Soon, the local residents fell into a panic of plundering by pirates.

One day, little Sarah returned home to the sound of gunfire and screams. The front door had been flung open, and her mother lay dying in a pool of blood. A sudden, powerful blow had knocked her to her side. Sarah's last memory was the attacker's red eyes and his face hidden by a thief's hood.

After Sarah survived by chance, she quickly found out who the murderer of her mother was. It was the famous Gangplank, the Scourge of the Sea in Bilgewater. He was once the ruler of the city of Bilgewater and the King of Pirates. Although he was later driven down, the forces under his command were still the most powerful existence in Bilgewater. For Sarah, although she worked very hard and had many means, it was still almost impossible to kill Gangplank, the Scourge of the Sea.

"Haha, ordinary people, do you think I'd believe you? How dare an ordinary person say he wants to kill the infamous Planck, the Disaster of the Ocean."

Sarah couldn't help but sneer when she heard that, then she sighed, looking a little depressed.

"Forget it. This is my own business. I don't know when I can avenge my mother, and I don't know if I can ever get revenge, or if I'll die in some action against others or Gangplank. But I must persevere. The hatred for my mother's murder is irreconcilable. As for you, leave this place as soon as possible."

For Sarah 3.2, although she usually acts majestic and decisive, she is not very confident about whether she can avenge her mother. She also understands that Gangplank is powerful and the members of her own team are unreliable. If she says she wants to cause trouble for Gangplank now, Sarah dares to guarantee that her team will fall apart immediately, and then her subordinates will definitely betray her immediately to take credit for it to Gangplank.

"Why don't you believe I can kill Gangplank? What if I can kill him?"

Li Xuan was also somewhat frustrated. He had clearly only wanted to offer Sarah a reward for her intelligence and goodwill, so why didn't Sarah believe him? He was speechless. He wanted to give her a benefit, but he couldn't give it.

Chapter 406: Excited Sarah

"Oh, if you can really kill him? Avenge my mother's murder, then I will be yours from now on."

Sarah was also a little annoyed. Why did the other party have to brag so much? She had originally had some good feelings towards him.

"Well, although this was originally my reward for you, Sarah, since you want me to repay you with my body, I won't refuse. After all, no one can resist the charm of a beauty like you, Sarah."

"Are you serious?"

Sarah was also a little surprised. She knew that although she was very beautiful, no one in Bilgewater would be willing to stand up for her and face Gangplank, the ocean disaster. Looking into Li Xuan's dark eyes, Sarah knew he was serious.

"Of course. Why do you think I'm lying? As I said before, Gangplank, the Scourge of the Ocean, is just a pirate leader. What's so great about him?"

"Heh! He's just a pirate leader. How are you going to destroy him? Send Army 04? Even the Roxas navy has been defeated by Gangplank before. What can you do to him?"

Sarah was also a little angry. Li Xuan said that Planck was worthless. So what was she worth when she tried her best and couldn't find a way to defeat him?

"What help do I need to defeat him? Besides, if I can't kill my enemy, it's useless to send more people. Sarah, Bilgewater is so close to the Shadow Isles. You should know that there are even more powerful and unrivaled beings above mortals."

Li Xuan's words reminded Sarah of the monsters that appeared in Bilgewater every year and took away many lives.

Kalista the Spear of Vengeance, Hecarim the Shadow of War, Thresh the Shackle Warden, Elise the Spider Queen, and other monsters often appear in Bilgewater and kill many people every time. It is said that there are even more powerful monsters in the Shadow Isles.

If Li Xuan also possessed such powerful strength, then it would not be impossible to kill the Ocean Disaster in a surprise attack.

"Does that mean you possess the same power as those monsters on the Shadow Isles?"

Li Xuan almost burst out laughing at Sarah's expectant question.

"Sarah, your words are ridiculous. How can you compare those weak beings of the Shadow Isles to me? That's a humiliation to me, understand? To me, a mere Shadow Isles is easily destroyed."

"You're kidding, right? Every time those monsters on the Shadow Isles launch a massive attack, all of Bilgewater has to unite and unite, suffering heavy losses to repel them. They don't do any damage at all, and most of the time, they just kill enough and go back on their own."

Sarah said with some disbelief. As a native of Bilgewater, Sarah was well aware of the power of the monsters in Shadow Island. Basically, the people in Bilgewater treated them as natural disasters.

"Of course, my little Sarah. You know why I came back to Bilgewater to inquire about the island."

"why?"

With hope for revenge, Sarah didn't care that she was still sitting in Li Xuan's arms and constantly giving benefits to Li Xuan.

"That's because I created that island specifically to help a friend relocate her city. You've probably heard of that city before; it's Zaun. They relocated to the island I created, and I created some Warcraft specifically for defense in Bilgewater. I came here to see how the people of Bilgewater would react."

"Are you serious about creating such a large island? Are you trying to say you're a god?"

Sarah wondered if she was still dreaming, otherwise how could she hear such words? Although she didn't know the exact size of the island that had appeared near Bilgewater, based on her years of sailing experience, it was probably even larger than the entire Bilgewater. And Li Xuan actually said that this island was created by him. How could that be possible?

"That's not a big deal. My friend is Janna, the storm goddess and patron saint of Zaun. I can be considered a god, too."

Before Sarah could even digest the previous news, Li Xuan gave her another surprise.

"Janna, the Goddess of Storms!??"

Sarah knew something about this goddess. Although her faith had always been spread in the Piltover region, for pirates and bounty hunters who made a living in Bilgewater, Janna, who controlled the storm, was also an object they had to respect.

"Is everything you said true?"

"Of course, how long can something like this be kept secret? Ten days or half a month at most. The people in Bilgewater should have received the news. I see, Gangplank is almost back from his visit to Zaun Island. You'll be able to see his head when he returns this evening."

Listening to Li Xuan's answer, Sarah realized it was indeed true. Even if it was just to pick up girls, there was no need for Li Xuan to tell such an outrageous lie. After all, it was too fake and not many people would believe it. Moreover, due to Piltover's Hextech technology, news from Zaun should be available in a little over a week. This island had already appeared for almost a week, which meant that she would receive news about Zaun in the next few days. So what Li Xuan said was true, he had not lied to her, and she could finally get revenge.

"That's great, Mom. I can finally help you get revenge. Thank you, thank you so much, for helping me kill Gangplank, the evil pirate leader."

Sarah was so excited that she gave Li Xuan a kiss. Being able to get revenge was the best news she had heard in the past ten years.

"Haha, aren't you afraid that I'm lying to you? That would put you at a disadvantage. Really? But in this case, I can't be too stingy. How about this? I will increase your strength and let you take revenge with your own hands. Only then, Sarah, the resentment and depression that have lasted for more than ten years in your heart will be completely eliminated."

Since Sarah was so proactive, Li Xuan was naturally willing to help her, allowing her to personally complete her revenge on Gangplank, and he himself would avenge Gangplank's mother's murder.

Chapter 407: Sarah on a Killing Spree

"Is this really possible? I can kill Gangplank with my own hands?"

Hearing Li Xuan's words, Sarah couldn't help but feel a little dazed. She actually had the chance to kill the beast Planck with her own hands.

"Of course he is. He's just a small Gangplank. With the power I gave you, it would be easy for you to kill him."

As Li Xuan spoke, he transferred the power into Sarah's body. That was the power of the One Piece world that was particularly similar to the environment of Bilgewater. The strongest three colors of domineering, the strongest physique, the strongest swordsman, and the awakened level of lightning fruit. With such power, Sarah is not considered a weakling in the Rune Continent. Ordinary ascenders will not be her opponent.

"This, this power is so strong. I feel like if I wanted to, even destroying Bilgewater wouldn't be particularly difficult."

Sarah felt the unusually powerful force in her body, and couldn't help but feel excited, looking eager to try.

"Don't, Sarah. This isn't an illusion. If you unleash the power within you, you can indeed destroy Bilgewater. So you'd better be careful."

"So it's true? Looks like I can get my revenge myself now. No matter how hard Gangplank struggles, he can't possibly defeat me right now. Thank you so much. Uh, what's your name?"

Sarah was originally very grateful to Li Xuan and wanted to express her gratitude, but she suddenly realized that she didn't even know the name of the man in front of her who had an intimate relationship with her.

"Sarah, remember this: your future man's name is Li Xuan."

"Li Xuan, I understand. I will definitely keep this in mind and never forget it again."

Sarah gave him another sweet kiss as she spoke, and the two of them waited for Gangplank's return in the tavern, each of them affectionately waiting for his return.

The others were also waiting. After all, they couldn't let Li Xuan, this big fat sheep, go. Even with Sarah's protection, he didn't think of escaping at the first time, but instead talked about love here, which gave them time to mobilize people to surround the tavern. Even Sarah was useless.

If this tavern was not run by a big shot in Bilgewater, the others would have rushed in and arrested Li Xuan long ago.

But it doesn't matter. The pub will close at night. At that time, facing everyone who has made full preparations, Li Xuan and Sarah will be unable to escape.

However, neither Li Xuan nor Sarah would take these malicious minions seriously. They were just weeds on the roadside, blocking the way, so they could be removed.

In this way, time passed very quickly as Li Xuan and Sarah chatted and laughed, and finally it was dusk. Gangplank's ship was not far from the port of Bilgewater, and now it was time to leave the tavern.

Li Xuan and Sarah's actions naturally could not be hidden from the others who had been following them for so long. As soon as they left the tavern, they were surrounded from all directions.

"Sarah, where are you going with our big fat sheep? You're not going to keep all this wealth for yourself, become that pretty boy's woman, and then leave Bilgewater and become a distinguished noble lady. This kind of eating alone is not a good idea. Even your crew members won't agree with it."

Sarah looked closely and found that the people surrounding her included members of her ship. It was obvious that someone had instigated her own crew to rebel just in case.

"Okay, I didn't expect you to betray me."

Sarah's eyes turned cold. Although she knew that her team was completely united by interests and was not reliable, it was unforgivable that these guys betrayed her so easily.

"Captain, there's nothing we can do. You're willing to sacrifice your brothers' lives to gain wealth and fame, becoming the wife of a noble. So you can't blame everyone for betraying you. You were the one who betrayed them first."

The person who was speaking was the first mate, the second in command on Sarah's ship. He didn't know the truth of the matter, or whether Sarah really thought so. However, as the second in command of the ship, as long as Sarah fell, he would legitimately become the new captain and own his own ship and power. Under such a great temptation, no matter what Sarah thought, she had to die here.

"Well, you are truly my good subordinate. It's a pity that I am no longer the same as I was before. In that case, you, the traitor, shall die."

Sarah was particularly decisive. She took out her musket and shot the treacherous first mate in the head with lightning speed.

"Haha, you're worthy of being the bounty hunter Sarah. You're quite capable indeed. But with so many of us, how long can you keep your violence? You even dared to take the initiative. Let's all attack together. She only has two guns. What can she do to so many of us?"

A guy hiding in the dark directly instigated the rebellion, and the other leaders also offered huge rewards. Whoever captured Li Xuan could get one tenth of the harvest.

There will always be brave men when there is a big reward. For this group of desperate criminals in Bilgewater, as long as they can afford the money, they will dare to risk their lives. Under such great stimulation, many pirates' eyes became red, and they surrounded them, intending to rush forward.

Unfortunately for Sarah, this deadlock from the past is nothing now.

Sarah gently drew out the long sword from her waist, which she had prepared for when the enemy approached her and had to engage in close combat. Although she was proficient in swordsmanship in the past, she mainly used the two gunpowder guns in her hands. However, now she is more proficient in swordsmanship at the level of a great swordsman.

With just a slight swing of the long sword in his hand, a series of flying slashes cut in half all the desperate criminals who rushed over first. In an instant, the originally dry streets were wet with blood.

All the enemies were stunned. What was going on? Sarah actually possessed such terrifying power. Was it because their eyes were blurry? Or were they still asleep?

But they were stunned. Sarah wasn't. Although she was always friendly to Li Xuan, her status in Bilgewater was forged with blood and heads. Since they were all enemies, they should all be killed.

Sarah started killing without mercy, and the others finally reacted and hurriedly fled outside. Unfortunately, facing Sarah, who now had the top-level observation color and the blessing of the thunder fruit, none of them could escape.

After killing all the enemies, Sarah returned to her gentle and docile appearance and went back to Li Xuan's side. There was not even a drop of blood on her body. They were just a group of ordinary people. For Sarah now, this was not a problem at all.

Just like that, Li Xuan and Sarah crossed a street that had become blood-stained and headed towards the port where Gangplank had docked. It was clear that the killing today had not yet stopped.

Chapter 408: Enemies Meet

"Hey guys, hurry up! We're almost at the port, and then we'll have some good wine to drink."

Gangplank stood at the front of his fleet facing the sea breeze and said very proudly.

On the surface he was very calm, but in his heart he was feeling unlucky.

As the uncrowned king of Bilgewater, he naturally wanted to explore the huge island that appeared nearby.

As a result, there was nothing on the island except various terrifying monsters. More than a dozen of his men died. After returning this time, he would have to find some people to fill the gap in manpower.

However, Planck wasn't too worried about this. After all, his reputation was there, and as long as he spread the word, he could easily find a bunch of people to join. He wasn't worried about no one coming.

However, as they were almost at the port, Planck suddenly realized something was wrong. It was strange. He saw the large army returning, but where were the people welcoming them at the port?

In order to ensure his own safety, Gangplank forcibly took over the largest port in Bilgewater as a place for his fleet to rest. In the past, when he came back, his subordinates should have come out to welcome him and be ready to receive him. But now no one came and the whole port was quiet.

It seems someone's looking for trouble. The port has been captured. While this situation is rare, Gangplank has encountered it twice. After all, as Bilgewater's largest port, it brings Gangplank a huge amount of wealth every day, which is the fundamental reason he can afford such a large fleet. There are naturally many people who are jealous, but few who dare to take action. Moreover, the defensive force he left behind should not be underestimated. It seems that this will be a tough battle.

"Give the order. There's an ambush at the port. It's been captured. Have the men fire long-range artillery fire. Bomb the hell out of them. Let the enemy die inside."
