"Although we agreed to the request of the True One and allowed you to collect the Secret Serpent Sea Ore in the border area, aren't you collecting too much?"

On the coast, a woman wearing a strange crown and special clothes showed an unhappy look, looking at the naked, dirty and smelly outsider in front of her, and said without boredom.

And the leader who collected the ore stood up to her words.

He was the core backbone of Sarah's men and the first group of Bi Islanders who followed Sarah. With a smile, he said embarrassedly: "Sorry, High Priest, we need a lot of this ore. Since the True One agreed to us and reached a deal with our leader, it doesn't matter if we take all the ore on the coast?"

He continued: "Anyway, the Secret Serpent Sea Ore is not a precious thing for you. Every year, there are not a few pieces of gravel that are washed into the sea and drift to Bilgewater, right?"

"Tsk!" The high priest curled his lips unhappily , and said loudly: "Then hurry up and collect the ore, and then, get out of our island!"

"Baru, you unbelieving criminals are not welcome!"

Looking at the high priest with a smile, he said: "Yes, high priest, we will get out as soon as we finish collecting."

Hehe

It seems that the Bi Island people like the Baru people very much. After all, Bilgewater is a city-state that embraces all rivers and seas, and the rise of the Baru culture is more because the Bi Island people need to borrow the power of the Baru people to build fortifications against sea beasts. How come it seems that the Bi Island people like Baru very much?

"Work hard! Don't cause trouble for the high priest, and try to bring the ore back to the port as soon as possible!"

He said loudly.

——————

Four days later.

Bilgewater seemed very quiet in the afternoon, because at this point in time, it was not time for the Bi Island people to return from sea hunting. Therefore, with a large number of sea hunters missing, the Bi Island was much emptier.

There were only a few people at the dock where seafood was sold, but after the number of people decreased, there were more rats. A large number of rats licked the blood and minced meat on the floor in the afternoon sun, squeaking.

On the other hand, unlike the bottom, the upper layer of Bilgewater has green trees and flowers, and the luxurious villa area is the residence of the bigwigs and rich people of Bilgewater.

At this moment, in a villa, Sarah was wearing a casual dress, with her big red hair, and looking at Moss and others in front of her with a lazy smile.

"The ore has been obtained, a total of 16 tons, which should be enough for you to use?"

"But what can you exchange?" Sarah asked with her hands spread out.

Behind her, in the room, there were densely packed secret snake sea ore covered with sacks.

After hearing this, Moss showed a hesitant look. He really needed these ores, and he was really rich. After all, he was a Piltover native, and Moss had never lacked money since he was a child.

But now, Moss had to say that he was very short of money!

Because the price of these secret snake sea ores was not low

Expensive, very expensive!

Just as the blacksmith Keshe said, secret snake sea ores were only produced in the Blue Flame Islands, and outsiders could not enter the Blue Flame Islands at all, unless you wanted to conflict with the Baru people.

This time, Sarah was able to exchange for gems because she made a deal with the True One of Baru.

Sarah added another heavy hammer: "I paid for this with my life. If the price is cheaper, don't blame me for not selling it."

"I am a very greedy person, so if I can't satisfy my appetite, I would rather throw them into the depths of the sea than let you get them. After all, you really need this thing, right?"

"How do you plan to exchange it?"

"How do you think about exchanging it by kilograms? As for food, I think we are not short of it now. After all, there are abundant seafood. If a fishing boat goes out, if it is lucky, it can get enough food for a hundred people for a week in one morning, so I need something special."

"You said you are from Piltover, so it would be good to exchange it with things from Piltover, weapons, furniture, materials, etc." Sarah said.

Bilgewater is indeed not short of food. The island is adjacent to the sea, so as long as the locals can muster up the courage and ignore the disgusting and scary appearance of sea beasts, then a huge sea beast is enough for hundreds of people to eat for several days.

You know, large sea beasts weigh nearly a hundred tons. Although the islanders can't catch large sea beasts most of the time, small sea beasts weigh several tons or even dozens of tons.

Therefore, Sarah doesn't need food.

She needs weapons and things to strengthen her strength.

After all, this is what she exchanged for her life.

She has promised Ornn that after this incident, she will accept the trial of Nagakabouros.

"I don't have that much money." Moss said with difficulty.

If possible, he wants to take all the stones.

Use credits?

Moss had considered it, but even if all the credits of the twenty or so people in the exoskeleton club were counted, it would not be enough to buy one-tenth of the ore.

Therefore, Moss could only show a helpless expression, looked at Sarah, and asked: "Ms. Sarah, can I buy some of the ore first? I will buy the rest slowly. Don't worry, as you can see, I really need these ores, so I won't let you suffer a loss."

"Of course you can." Sarah said.

But she added: "But what I want to say is that while you are hesitating, I may collapse at any time. If I collapse, then all your stones will be gone."

"This is Bilgewater. Everyone lives with their heads on their waists. No one knows whether the sun will be bright enough tomorrow."

"Besides me, there should be no one on Bilgewater who can help you get ore from the Baru people. Illaoi is not so easy to talk to. She is a very shrewd person.

Or do you plan to draw swords with the Baru people and rob the ore? I recommend you not to do that. Although I don't know how the Baru people do it, they can summon sea beasts. They are not easy to mess with, not to mention the existence behind them."

"So if I were you, I would buy all these ores at once. If you buy the ores, I can stay on Bilgewater longer. We can do more transactions in the future, right?" Sarah smiled with narrowed eyes.

Marla had been listening beside her, and then she couldn't listen any more. She took a deep breath and said, as if she had thought of something, "Well, Moss, I have thought of a way to solve the problem."

Moss looked at Marla: "Method? Please tell me."

"We can contact the principal. The academy has said that students can use credits to exchange for any item in the world. As long as you want it and you have credits, the War College will do everything possible to help you find it. So, Moss, we can let Principal Rowan buy this batch of ore in the name of the academy, and then you can exchange it for ore in the form of credits."

"Isn't this a solution?" Marla said.

She felt that Moss had fallen into a misunderstanding.

Credits are really the most useful thing in the War College. Marla used teacher points to exchange for a lot of things, which were things that Demacia didn't have. Therefore, she felt that her idea should be fine.

As for money

Ha, if you can't buy it in your personal name, can't you buy it in the name of the official?

You know, the War College is sponsored by many small countries. Let's put it this way. The annual activity funds of some clubs in the War College alone are enough to make up for the profits of some poor towns for half a year.

Therefore, Marla thought that this idea would be fine.

"Yes!" Moss was shocked when he heard Marla's words. He clapped his hands and said excitedly: "Then I will contact Principal Rowan now."

"Wait, who are you going to contact?" Sarah didn't understand and asked hurriedly.

And Moss just said: "Please wait, I will give you an answer immediately."

Moss took off his backpack and took out a palm-sized thing from it.

That made Sarah confused.

And Moss lit up his Hex transmitter, and then he began to contact the student president.

As a student, he certainly did not have the right to contact Principal Rowan directly, so he had to use President Oriana's hand to contact the principal.

The transmitter was connected, and Moss spoke to the other end.

Sarah was listening, then she showed a strange expression, looked at Marla and said: "Can this thing talk to people?"

"Huh? This is the latest invention of Piltover. The whole Valoran knows about it, but you don't know it?"

"How can I know? Although we have some smuggled goods from Piltover here, they are all old antiques that no one wants in Piltover. As for the news, let alone, the people of Piltover can't live without this sea. Our news is told to us by outsiders, but during this period of time, there are no outsiders." Sarah said.

And this is why she would take the risk to help Moss and others find ore.

It's very strange. In the past, there were all kinds of smugglers coming to Piltover for trading, but in recent years, fewer and fewer people came to Piltover, and even later, one or two were not seen for several months.

Therefore, Marla's group of people who suddenly came to Piltover attracted Sarah's attention.

No, it's fine if the Noxians don't come to Bilgewater, because every time they come, the Bilgewater people can't get any advantage, but they may lose something. But the Zaun people won't come either!

You know, their Hextech items and weapons are all bought from the Zaun people, but since three years ago, Zaun has no longer smuggled items to Bilgewater.

Sarah still doesn't know why Zaun doesn't come to Bilgewater anymore.

But looking at Moss and then at Mara, Sarah: "."

No way?

Could it be that the feud between Zaun and Piltover has been resolved? And they have also joined Demacia?

Is this impossible?

Sarah bit her finger.

She couldn't believe it was true.

Then, the strange device in Moss's hand made a female voice. Sarah couldn't hear it clearly, but she could only hear a cold voice.

Then, Sarah vaguely heard the voice saying in the common language of Valoran that she was going to find someone now.

Ten minutes later, just when Sarah was feeling a little angry, Moss suddenly stood up straight.

"Hello, Principal, I am Moss Lantis from Hex Academy, the president of the Exoskeleton Device Club, and the initiator of this mission."

"I know you. Dean Zewei has praised you as a genius. What's wrong? Are you in trouble?" There was a hearty male voice on the phone.

Moss held the phone respectfully and said, "It's true that I encountered some trouble."

Sarah looked at the side, a little surprised.

In Sarah's impression, the people of Piltover are all arrogant. Because of this, Moss has always used plain language to talk to Sarah, but Sarah doesn't mind, because she knows that the Piltovers are just like this, they often think they are the center of the world, and like to look down on others. Do you expect them to be polite?

Didn't you see that he also used semi-plain language to talk to his teacher?

But at this moment, this Piltover guy used all respectful words, and the expression on his face also showed his admiration for that person.

"Principal, the Mystic Serpent Mine has been found, and it is indeed produced in Piltover, but it has encountered many things." Moss told him the simplified description of what he encountered in Bilgewater these days, the Mystic Serpent Mine, and Baru.

Then, the answer Moss got was: "Teacher Marla is right. In this case, let the college take charge."

"Give the phone to Sarah, I will communicate with her to buy this batch of secret snake sea ore."

Moss looked at Sarah and said, "Our principal has something to tell you."

Sarah came up and looked at the Hex Transmitter, her eyes full of curiosity: "Can I talk to him with this?"

"Yes." Moss said, and then he handed over the transmitter.

Sarah took it and put it on her fair cheek.

"Hello?"

"Nice to meet you, Sarah."

"That's great!" The woman who controls half of the island showed excitement on her face.

"I'm Sarah, who are you?"

"My name is Rowan, I'm the principal of the child in front of you and the person in charge of the War College."

Sarah nodded, "You know everything, so tell me, how are you going to buy this batch of ore? Let me make it clear first, this batch of ore will never be reduced in price, this is what I exchanged for my life."

"Except for me, if you want to get these ores, there is only one way, fight with the Baru people, but I don't think you will do that."

"Of course, I'm not interested in provoking another god." The voice replied with a smile.

This answer made Sarah stunned.

No!!!

What do you mean by provoking another god?

It sounds like the other party has provoked several gods?

Bragging? !

Sarah frowned and said, "Tell me, what are you going to do."

"Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Rowan, from Demacia, the actual controller of the War College."

"You just said it!" Sarah said.

"I haven't finished yet. At the same time, I am also the actual head of the world's largest merchant group, the Glorious Merchant Group. Although my merchant group has not been to Bilgewater much, I think you must have heard of this name, right?"

"."

"Are you serious?" Sarah swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

The Glorious Merchant Group began to completely take over most of Shurima's business a year ago. It also has its own business all over the world and is known as the world's most famous and richest merchant group.

The other party said that it is the world's largest merchant group, which is really not an exaggeration!

There are indeed no outsiders on Bi Island now, but who are the people on Bi Island? They are pirates. Their business is not just fishing, but robbing on the sea is the most important.

Therefore, Sarah certainly knows the name of the Glorious Merchant Group very well!

And now. The other party said that he is the actual head of the Glorious Merchant Group?

"I think we can have a good chat."

"I will now make a list of what I need and give it to your students. What do you think?"

Sarah's tone was unconsciously flattering.

The smile on her face became brighter.
