Chapter 164 Bilgewater
"Miss, why do I suddenly feel that this is your conspiracy?"
Wearing a simple robe, Riven tied her hair into a small ball, sat at the desk, smacked her lips, and looked at Fiona standing straight and elegantly in front of her with one hand. She couldn't help but speak.
"Why do you think so?" Fiona was reading a book, and she said without turning her head.
Riven looked at the documents on the table, and then looked at the batch of documents waiting for her to deal with, showing a bitter expression, "This must be your conspiracy."
"Hey, Miss, actually you just don't want to be the dean yourself, don't want to deal with these troubles, so you gave them to me, right?"
"Ridiculous, you agreed to be the dean yourself, and I didn't force you." Fiona closed the book, put it back on the bookshelf, and then walked in front of Riven.
She and Riven are really two extremes in personal behavior.
How would Fiona describe Riven?
Well, she probably doesn't know how to stand or sit, and looks like a gangster or a gang leader.
That's how Riven is in Fiona's mind.
Just like now, Riven is sitting in the dean's seat, with her hands on her face, her back hunched, her butt sticking out, and her lazy look. This is what Fiona can't accept the most.
But because Rowan also has this situation, Fiona has slowly changed a little, otherwise she would definitely not be able to help but say something about Riven's behavior at this moment.
"How about I return the deanship to you? I think being a mentor is good."
Riven couldn't help but say, she continued: "I like this place very much. The students are not much older than me, but they respect me very much, and everyone is very energetic. They will say it out when they are unhappy. This is what I like most."
"So now, I am very unhappy, Miss, I am very unhappy, do you understand?"
"What does it have to do with me if you are unhappy?" Fiona looked at Riven with contempt, raised her legs slightly, and placed her buttocks on the table. Fiona leaned forward slightly, looking down at Riven who was looking up at her, and said word by word: "If I want this position, I will take it back myself, so I don't need your charity."
"But I doubt that you don't want this position now." Riven blinked and said seriously.
Fiona paused, then silently turned away.
"See, I was right!"
"You are really... damn it, Miss. You don't want to be the dean and handle the affairs of the academy, so you give this responsibility to me. Hey, did you really try your best in the duel a few days ago?"
"Let's not talk about this, dean. Now we should talk about who to send to Bilgewater." Fiona picked up a piece of paper on the table and moved her perky buttocks off the table. She looked at Riven and continued: "Hex Academy, Magic Academy, Knight Academy, we and the Magic Academy have been invited to send students to protect the students of Hex Academy to Bilgewater for experiments."
"This is the first time that students have gone to a strange city-state for a mission since the start of the school half a year ago."
"So, dean, please put aside those useless ideas now and concentrate on thinking about how to do this."
Fiona said in a deep voice.
Riven put the pen on her lips, pouted, sighed and said, "Let me see it."
"Vice President Bobby is the leader of this team, right?"
"Yes."
"Where's Rowan?" Riven's orange eyes turned into cross-eyed eyes, looking at the pen on her lips.
Fiona said with some displeasure: "Please call him the principal."
"He is not even as old as me!"
"But he beat you with one finger."
"Okay, okay, I'll call him the principal, call him the principal, okay!" Riven picked up the pen, sat back, looked at Fiona and said: "You are a fan of Rowan."
"So Miss, where is Principal Rowan? Isn't he going?"
"He has to guard the academy, and he seems to be in seclusion recently."
"Seclusion?"
"It means practicing."
"Okay, then, select the best students from the Knight Academy, and then Vice Principal Bobby will lead the team, and then the Magic Academy will send assistants and some students to accompany the students of the Hex Academy to Bilgewater. Is that okay?"
"No problem, you are the dean."
"Hehe."
Riven rolled her eyes.
You'd better really treat me as the dean, Miss!
Why do I feel like I am your tool, okay?
Riven thought angrily.
Time passed, and in mid-July, the Hextech Flygate of the War College was activated. The Hextech College selected 20 students, and went to Bilgewater with five students from the Knight College, two assistants and three students from the Magic College, and the vice president of the college.
This was the first time that the students of the War College went out on a mission, and this made the students a little restless.
Originally, I thought I had to wait until graduation to go out on a mission, but now I see that I can apply for it on my own!
As long as I apply to the student union president Orianna, and then President Orianna will give the documents to the deans, and after the deans of the three colleges agree, the students can go out on a mission.
This trip to Bilgewater was initiated by the Exoskeleton Device Club in the Hextech College.
They studied Hextech technology and Zaun's alchemy technology, and then prepared to create new inventions that can enhance human strength.
And they have made a simple sketch, and after seeing it, Rowan decisively chose to let them go out.
What the hell is this? !
This is an external device!
If these things are really developed, then every human equipped with these devices can instantly become an extraordinary existence!
This also made Rowan determine one thing-that is, Piltover and Zaun are indeed very weak city-states. The only demigod Janna is put in the world, and it is completely incomparable with other places.
Even Bilgewater, a place with excessive chaos, poverty and darkness, has many legends.
However, the upper limit of the two cities is unmatched by other countries in Runeland.
When technology and magic are combined, it is just as the people of Piltover always say-the future belongs to Piltover.
And now, the future belongs to the War College.
Therefore, Rowan is looking forward to what achievements these guys will make in Bilgewater.
As for whether there will be troubles
Now, the War College is really not afraid of troubles.
As long as it is not a demigod fight, Rowan can handle it completely.
He who has touched the rule-level domain is already a god-like existence in the eyes of mortals.
"Freshly baked giant lamp fish meat, scales and organs, sold at a low price!"
"Are there any sea hunters who want to go out to sea together? Our ship is short of a few sailors, and the prey we hunt will be divided equally. The veteran sea hunter team is absolutely fair and just!"
"Fuck, who the hell asked you to set up a stall here, this is my fucking territory!"
"Fuck, these bastards from the Sting Gang, fight them!"
On the dock of Bilgewater, blood fell into the sea from the cracks in the wooden boards, but it would be pushed back by the rising tide, and a back and forth would leave dark marks. The stench would make outsiders nauseous, and the occasional cat-sized rats on people's feet were even more terrifying, with maggots crawling and dirt all over the ground.
This is the daily life of Bilgewater.
At this moment, Zeli was wearing a clean robe, with a band-aid on her nose, breathing the air of Bilgewater, and then she sighed: "It's like returning home."
"Hey, I like this place."
"Are you crazy?" A student from the Knight Academy couldn't help but look at Zeli and said.
Wearing exquisite armor and a long sword, Carona frowned and hated this environment!
She was not a noble, and she never claimed to be a noble person, but is this kind of environment really a place for people to live?
The organs of sea monsters were placed everywhere, and the unwanted pieces were thrown on the ground at will, allowing flies and rats to eat them. Maggots and human feces could be stepped on wherever they stepped. This place is too disgusting!
"Bilgewater is like this, Carona." A student from the Knight Academy said on the side.
He is not from Demacia, but he has joined the Knight Academy of the War Academy. Before coming to Demacia, he was in Shurima. Because of poverty, he wandered to many places, and the children of Shurima often come into contact with the people of Bilgewater, so he knows Bilgewater.
"Let's not talk about this, let's find a place to live first."
"By the way, Moss, the ore you want to study comes from the seabed and the surrounding islands, right?"
"Well, this kind of stone is only available in Bilgewater. I studied it and heard that it is produced from the Blue Flame Islands." Pushing his glasses, Moss, the initiator of this team and the president of the exoskeleton device research club, said.
"Principal Bobby, what do you say?" As he said, Moss lowered his head and looked at a short girl in front of him.
She is really short, like a dwarf, but the interesting thing is that her body shape does not look deformed. Her short stature does not make her look strange. On the contrary, because of her oversized head and cute facial features, she looks very cute.
Carrying a hammer, wearing chain mail, gloves, and with her ponytails shaking, she whispered, "I'll listen to you. I don't know much about Hextech, science, or Bilgewater."
"Then, let's find a place to stay first." Mara, the accompanying instructor of the magic academy, said.
Originally, Mulang and another instructor were accompanying this time. Because Mulang has a stable personality, but Mulang's magic is not suitable for combat, Mara, who has a bad temper and is easily impulsive, but has abilities suitable for combat, was replaced as the accompanying instructor.
As the group walked on the main road of Bilgewater, the Demacians couldn't help but make a sound.
"This place is really like Zaun. It's also a bottom-up architectural style, and there are canyons and gullies, and the sea."
"If you look at the appearance, it's very similar, but it's completely different, okay?" Zeli, a Zaun, couldn't help but say.
She hugged her chest and continued with a hum: "Zaun is much more orderly than here. Although Zaun was also chaotic in the past, compared with here, ours is a civilized city."
"Can this be compared?" Several Piltover students from Hex Academy whispered.
"Of course we have to compare. Zaun is dirty and messy not because we want it to be dirty and messy, but because of you. Bilgewater is dirty and messy because they don't like to be clean." Zelle said seriously.
Of course they attracted a lot of attention.
But looking at the fully armed students of the Knight Academy in the team, the locals of Bilgewater resisted the urge to come up and cause trouble.
Because these people look really hard to mess with.
Of course they are hard to mess with.
Everyone who can join the academy has been reviewed, especially the branch of the combat department, which is full of talents.
The first-year students of the Knight Academy, sent to the army of Demacia, can go to the battlefield after two months of training!
Therefore, although they have received a lot of cold eyes along the way, no one dares to come up and cause trouble.
This also disappointed Zeli, who was planning to release magic for others to see!
After practicing in the War Academy for several months, after Lux's training, Zeli has been able to perfectly perform her magic. Although she still has a problem, that is, insufficient magic power, it is easy to run out of power and empty in the body, but her magic can already achieve large-scale thunder.
For example, if Zeli wants to in Bilgewater, she can instantly strike out a lightning column as thick as a bucket.
Wow, it's exciting to think about such things!
Soon, everyone went up all the way, and under the leadership of Yamu, a student of the Knight Academy who was familiar with Bilgewater, they came to the top of Bilgewater.
"There is a saying in Bilgewater, the higher you climb, the less likely you are to drown. Just like what you have just seen, the lower class can only live below, next to the sea. In Bilgewater, the cusp of the storm is not only a description of their business adventures, but also their daily life."
Yamu led the way and soon came to a tavern.
Drunk men surrounded them.
"These guys should have been thrown out by the people inside because they had no money in their pockets." Yamu said.
"In Bilgewater, money is everything. As long as you have money, the people of Bilgewater will never be without what you want."
"It's much better up there than down there."
"Can we have some wine later? The funds should be enough, right?"
"Hey, hey, hey, Demacia's gold coins can't be used here. If we exchange things, President Oriana approved a few gems for us, but that's to be used to hire the people of Bilgewater to help find materials. We're not here to enjoy."
The students walked into the tavern while talking to each other.
This tavern can be used for accommodation, drinking and entertainment. After entering, the smoky smell, sweat, smoke, and fishy smell mixed together made Zeli pinch her little nose.
The same was true for Poppy. She covered her mouth and nose with both hands, but her big purple eyes looked at the house with light.
She was leaving Demacia for the first time!
So many people came in at once, which naturally attracted the attention of the person in charge of the tavern.
A red-haired woman in a corset sat on a chair, holding a wine glass in one hand, shaking the red wine inside, and squinting at the people coming in from the second floor.
"Who are they?"
"I don't know. Ten minutes later, they suddenly got off the ship and came to Bilgewater." A man beside her said.
"Outsiders, a large group." The woman laughed, and laughed very wantonly.
She raised her hand to gather her hair and said with a smile: "Spread the message and tell those guys that these fat sheep are mine."
"Yes." The ding sounded, and the man raised his head. The sound just made was the sound of the ornaments on his ears colliding.
Naked upper body, dense snake tattoos all over the body, a hunting knife and a pistol on his waist, he left the woman.
After the man left, the woman sitting in the seat first picked up the wine glass, drank the wine in it in one gulp, wiped the corner of her lips with the back of her hand, and she stood up and walked downstairs in short-heeled boots.
This is Bilgewater.
And now, half of this island belongs to her.
The other half will soon be hers too.
So,
this is her territory.
