The Mage Behind the Scenes From the Twin Cities

Chapter 282: Lady Luck is smiling

"Boss, what are we going to do now?"

In a tavern in Bilgewater Bay, the Ascension Pirates huddled in a room, all looking at the woman sitting with her legs crossed in the center.

Shi Luo had an unhappy expression on his face: "Just the doom tavern is considered a person, and the rest of the **** exchange for bounties is only one-tenth."

There is an Explorers Association in Bilgewater Bay, but it only has expeditions and commissions, and does not provide bounty exchange.

It is said that this is the result of the pirates united led by the Doom Tavern, and finally achieved.

Sivir shook his slender and well-proportioned legs, turned the cross-blade unconsciously in his hand, and said nonchalantly:

"It's not difficult to do."

"Boss, what do you say?"

Shi Luo's head was full of doubts.

It stands to reason that the boss is a person who takes money as his life.

How could such a person be swindled by money and still look calm.

"People here don't realize the huge potential of bounty hunters. Don't forget that the current queen Sarah came from bounty hunters."

"No, boss, why don't I understand, what exactly are we supposed to do? Aren't we just doing bounty hunters right now?"

Xi Luo was even more confused. How could he feel that he either had a problem with his ears or that he had drunk too much alcohol in his brain.

Seeing that Sivir ignored him, and instead frowned slightly as if thinking about something important, he had to give up and turned his head to Lucian.

"The commander's meaning is to do the work of those taverns, and we will be the middlemen." Lucian explained.

"That's it?" Xi Luo's eyes widened in disbelief, "Aren't we here to be pirates?"

"The original goal of the head of the regiment is to kill all the pirates who are better than us." Lucian glanced at him and wrote lightly, "I used to think that we would sell them for money. But now it is obvious that the money is slow, and it is better for us to be the middle. business and get more bounty hunters involved.”

He pointed to the wooden table next to him, where there was the information they had collected from the major taverns in exchange for bounties:

"Except for the bad luck tavern, which was given to us for publicity, the rest is only 1/10 at most. The profit here is huge. We only need to give 1/5, and others will give us the pirate head."

"No, can't others also add more money? In the end, no one will make any money." Xi Luo really didn't understand the point.

"It also requires status and risk to change the bounty." Lucian smiled, and didn't seem worried at all, "We have an imperial background, as long as we don't go too far in looting merchant ships, those people dare not give it to us. As for those taverns , their bounty exchange cost is higher than ours."

"Oh - so it is." Xi Luo understood a little.

But soon, he thought of another question:

"No! Isn't the Doom Tavern increasing the price now? Can we compete with them?"

When Xi Luo spoke, he looked carefully at his captain, and when he saw that the other party didn't have any special response, he was relieved.

The person behind the Doom Tavern is the female emperor Sarah. They saw it in the port before. There are five steel giant ships similar to the Ascension.

Now they don't look much stronger than those ordinary pirates, but they are much worse than the pirate queen.

"Don't worry about the Doom Tavern." Lucian stretched out his finger and shook it, "Bilgewater is very big, those dark corners, high wooden houses, caves corroded by the sea... Can hide a lot of dark forces , there are always many people who don't like that empress."

"Yeah! I'll understand now, I should have said it earlier." Xi Luo suddenly realized.

Sivir also ended his contemplation at this moment, looking at the other people and instructing:

"These days, the main focus is on gathering intelligence. It's time for us to build a tavern of our own."

Hearing this, the rest of the people showed excited expressions.

When it comes to pubs, Bilgewater's wine has to be mentioned.

Because of the looting of pirates, the taverns here basically cover all kinds of fine wines from the world.

When they were mercenaries in the past, they couldn't do without wine. Now that they have this opportunity to enjoy themselves, they naturally won't let it go.

If you have a tavern at home, it's not like opening a bottle, you can drink whatever you want.

Xi Luo took the lead, and the cadres of the pirate regiment quickly left the room with happy faces.

Now, only Sivir and Lucian were left in the room.

Sivir stopped the rotating cross-blade, looked up at the Lucian couple who had not left, rubbed his temples and said:

"You should have heard that the previous fleet was led by the empire, and all the major pirate forces were dispatched, and the target was Shadow Island."

Senna nodded solemnly: "We've met the team leader Seraphine. She's young, but she's a very reliable person. But..."

"Senna, maybe the Shadow Island is not as scary as we thought."

Lucian held Senna's cold hand tightly, and he knew that Senna was still afraid.

"That's right." Sivir also nodded, "Don't underestimate the strength of the empire. If this conquest fails, the empire will send a stronger army there. What we have to do now is to stand firm here. Heel, develop first."

The earliest version of the plan had to be scrapped after seeing Sarah and the pirate's fleet.

Before they can't compete with those powerful pirates, they can only develop steadily, build a tavern first, and then see how to get a share of this golden place.

After the three chatted for a while, Lucian was "friendly" and asked out of the room.

He looked at the closed door, feeling a little helpless.

How could Sivir and Senna know each other so well in just one boat trip, and they said they wanted to talk about some little secrets between women when they were alone.

Alas... being a human being is difficult, Lucian sighed, glanced at the closed door, and left the tavern to walk out.

He's been in Bilgewater Bay for several years, and it's mostly the same as before, although there have been some changes.

Following his past memories, he stood in front of a casino called "Fate".

The small venue was full of crazy gamblers.

In the most conspicuous position, surrounded by a group of onlookers, the two gamblers were watching the card game.

One of them was a strong man with a face full of flesh, with a pile of Trefary gold coins in front of him. The other thin man was dressed in black, with a mysterious smile on his mature face.

After the casino dealer was familiar with cutting the cards, they distributed them one by one to the two players in the game, each with two cards, all of which were placed on the table with their backs facing up.

Lucian walked nearby and could clearly see the pattern of an eye on the back of the card, which was the symbol of the Destiny Casino. Looking at this sign, there was a trace of nostalgia in his eyes.

The strong man grabbed the card without hesitation, and frowned after scanning the card surface.

The corners of the thin man's mouth were slightly raised, and he said without looking at it:

"1 Trefary Gold Coin!"

As he said that, he took out a gold coin from nowhere, and after tinkling his fingertips for a while, it fell into the center of the table.

"and!"

The strong man grabbed a gold coin without hesitation and threw it in the middle of the table.

Another round of cards was dealt, and the cards in their hands became three.

This time, the thin man still didn't look at the cards. Instead, it was like magic. He stroked his palm lightly on the wooden table, and gold coins appeared in the place where he stroked.

"10 gold coins."

"Can you play? Don't even look at the cards?"

The strong man picked up the card unhappy and glared at the thin man.

Although winning money is very cool, but encountering a Hanhan, the fun of gambling is at least half.

"It doesn't matter if it will, anyway, the goddess of luck always favors me."

The thin man's mouth always had a smile on his face, and he looked unhurried.

"Cut." The strong man sneered, "20 gold coins, open the card!"

He glanced coldly at the thin man, and added: "Don't grind, get out if you don't have money."

"20..." The thin man shrugged slightly, "Then 20 is fine."

He took out a purse and threw it away. The purse fell on the table and rolled out 10 gold coins from it.

The strong man didn't hesitate, tossed the card in his hand and slapped it on the wooden table:

"Two pieces of Pirate Elite, with a total of 23 points, you are bigger than mine, take them all!"

They played a card game that was popular in Bilgewater, a deck of 60 cards, four cards of 15 types of cards, representing points from 1 to 15.

One party chooses to open the card, and the other party can choose to increase the number and continue to deal the card, or choose to open the card with the money.

The strong man's card is two pirate elites, a 10-point, and a 3-point miscellaneous fish card.

This board is not too big, but generally not too small.

The strong man's eyes were fixed on the thin man in front of him.

After playing in the casino for so long, it’s not that I haven’t seen anyone who doesn’t read cards, but this is the first time I’ve seen such a person who doesn’t read cards for a long time.

"Heh..." The thin man chuckled lightly, flipped his card over, and said apologetically:

"I'm sorry, today is my lucky day."

The three cards he turned over were the exact same three cards, with a huge sea monster head in the pattern, with tentacles coiling around it.

This pattern has an figurative name, Lady Beard.

And in Bilgewater, everyone knew she had another name:

Nagakapolos!

"Fuck! You cheat!"

The strong man slapped the table fiercely, waiting for a pair of angry eyes, and slapped him.

boom!

At this moment, a gunshot exploded.

There was a scream, and blood splashed in front of the strong man, and the table was covered in blood.

This **** scene not only did not arouse the panic of the onlookers, but on the contrary, the onlookers blew a few whistles to join in the fun.

It's just a dead person, how fresh!

In Bilgewater Bay, people who die every day can fill an island.

At this moment, a man with a shotgun and a cigarette in his mouth walked over with sloppy steps:

"Drizzt, don't thank me!"

"Graves, can I thank you for not moving?" The thin man Drizzt shrugged.

Graves walked to the wooden table with a cigarette in his mouth. He didn't mind the blood on the table. He grabbed the gold coin in his free hand and stuffed it into the purse. Without turning his head, he said:

"Oh, if it wasn't for me, you would have been beaten to death long ago."

"Come on, if it weren't for me, you'd still be squatting in Piltover's prison." Drizzt leaned back on the seat and waved the crowd to disperse.

Seeing that there was no lively look, the others just glanced at Graves' shotgun and left with regret.

"Ding-"

The last gold coin fell into the purse, and Graves glared at Drizzt displeasedly:

"Don't mention this, if you didn't run away, why would I go in?"

"Come on, if I'm going to run, let's go in together. Do you think so, Lucian?"

Drizzt shrugged slightly, put his legs on the **** wooden table, and looked at Lucian who was still standing beside him with a playful expression.

"Isn't this an old friend? Long time no see, is this here for wine?"

Graves pinned the purse to his waist, took a deep breath, pulled the trigger of the shotgun, and aimed it directly at Lucian.

Obviously, the relationship between the two is not as good as he said.

"Graves, I'm here for business."

Lucian ignored his gun, pulled up a stool and sat down.

"Come on, get down to business! How many people have you killed to save your wife?"

Graves felt bored, threw the gun aside and sat directly on the table.

Drizzt, who was next to him, had a blue card in his hand at some point, turning it at his fingertips, he pressed the black hat on his head, and said with a chuckle:

"No, Graves, you forgot he came here a year ago?"

"Fuck." Graves seemed to think of something, grabbed the shotgun next to him, "Lucian, I haven't found you yet, pay back the money!"

"Isn't it just 20 golden sea monsters? No way!" Lucian spread his hands.

"That's 20 golden sirens. If you paid it back a year ago, I could earn 10 more Trefary gold coins!" Graves glared at Lucian.

It is easy to say that the current Golden Kraken is not the same price as the previous Golden Kraken.

Bilgewater's Golden Siren can be traded for 1 for 1 when Trefary Gold Coins first came out.

And recently, you can use 2 gold sirens without a fool to exchange with you for a Trefary gold coin.

With interest included in this transaction, he lost money!

"Don't be stingy, Graves, we are all big-picture people." Lucian reached out and tried to pat the other's shoulder, but was rejected.

Drizzt stood by the fire with great interest: "I believe it, Lucian is the one who dares to drive the boat bought by the 20 gold siren to the Shadow Island."

Graves listened and frowned: "Aren't you lying to me, the laborers thought you and I were the same kind of people, I was moved by what you said at the time, so I borrowed you 20 gold sirens to buy them. Ship. How do I feel now, you're the same kind of **** Drizzt."

"Hey, I'm a good man!" Drizzt raised his hand and smiled.

"You are such a good person, and all the bad people in the world are dead." Graves glanced at him, then turned his eyes to Lucian.

One year ago, when the three of them were drinking together, they heard Lucian's story, but he gave 20 gold sirens on the spot.

At that time, Lucian also sailed out to sea, and he didn't expect to get it back. There are very few people in this world who can go to Shadow Island and come back.

But Te Ma saw Lucian, the turtle grandson again today, and he felt that he had been deceived. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

"I did go to Shadow Island." Lucian said seriously.

"Where's the people? Why didn't you bring me to meet?" Drizzt didn't seem surprised at all.

"I was dragged by my head to chat, and I will bring it next time." Lucian turned his head to Graves, "I've been here for so long, why don't you give me a glass of wine?"

"Fuck, if you don't pay back the money, you want to drink when you come?"

Although Graves was cursing, he asked the bartender next to him to bring three glasses of wine.

The three of them didn't even know each other. Two years ago, something happened to Piltover, and Drizzt pulled him out of prison.

Of course, if that **** hadn't run away, Drizzt wouldn't have been caught so easily. But watching Drizzt fish him out, he also wanted to leave him alone first.

When they returned to Bilgewater, they met Lucian here who came to drink, and there was a little argument and a little conflict over drinking.

When conflicts arise, it is inevitable that a few people will die.

At first, the two of them fought with Lucian, and then the people here fired at them indiscriminately. In a fit of rage, they killed everyone here.

Justifiably, he and Drizzt became the bosses here.

As for Lucian, heh, it's not bad that he didn't shoot this guy. He doesn't give money for drinking in a pub every day, what's more, he doesn't do that as a habitual robber.

About a year ago, Lucian told his story, and Graves generously gave money because of the familiarity.

At that time, the pub had been turned into a gambling hall, and the income was not bad. Drizzt earned most of the money anyway, and he was only responsible for killing people.

Several people drank small wine and chatted about the past one or two years ago, and they were quite sighed.
