256 -251- Your king is back!

Above the misty sea, the flare could be considered the only source of light now. Countless explosives were continuously thrown into the sea, flipping huge waves and bringing out a chorus of wails. When the huge harpoons were shot out from the instruments, they would come back with large pieces of bloody flesh.

Linwin stood aside, watching the skilled defense works of the Bilgewater people, realizing that he seemed not needed to intervene.

But it's best not to intervene if not necessary. Bilgewater was not like Zaun; this place had monsters.

And unlike Shurima, where the place was particularly vast, using abilities here would definitely attract monsters because Bilgewater was too small, or rather, the Serpent Isles were too small.

If targeted by Nagakabouros, Linwin didn't think he could resist with his strength.

Nagakabouros was called a true god, and there were even rumors that its strength was second only to the Aurelion Sol. But according to the subsequent information Linwin saw, it was the designer of Nagakabouros who bragged about it, initially claiming its strength was equivalent to Aurelion Sol, but later claimed that Aurelion Sol was insignificant compared to Nagakabouros.

Finally, it was refuted, and it was claimed that Nagakabouros's strength was equivalent to Aatrox, which meant it was at a demigod level.

In reality, Nagakabouros was just a native god of Runeterra, and the rumors about Aurelion Sol not destroying Runeterra were just because of fear of Nagakabouros, which could be directly ignored.

And gods born on Runeterra were called demigods in official lore.

So although it was exaggerated, it was unquestionable that Nagakabouros had demigod strength. This huge deep-sea monster, known as the Mother Serpent by the Buhru people, had strength equivalent to Ornn, Volibear, and others, which should be beyond doubt.

And this was also the reason why Linwin felt a headache.

Unlike other deities, Nagakabouros, the spirit deity, liked to give people trials. In the story, this guy not only gave trials to Gangplank but also to Miss Fortune and Pyke.

Linwin didn't want to be trialed by her because if he failed the trial, only death awaited him.

Moreover, there was already a god of Zaun. Did Linwin still need to find another god whose likes and dislikes were unknown?

No need at all!

Janna was so good, cute, beautiful, and kind.

And what was the alias of Nagakabouros? Mother Serpent. If Linwin remembered correctly, her image was an extremely huge sea monster, with a fat and huge body like a snake, with a fleshy tumor-like head, and octopus tentacles grew under the big head. Nagakabouros's image was a monster that was half snake and half octopus.

Just thinking about it would make people feel uneasy.

"Captain, the Siren's Wail has arrived!"

One of Sarah's subordinates quickly ran over, bent over beside her, pointing towards a huge ship coming from the west.

"Let them fire, what are they waiting for? Waiting for me to go up and fire on the ship myself?" Sarah waved her hand, raised her gun, and fired a shot into the sky, then, holding a telescope, she shouted to the crew over there.

"Fire, fire! The captain's order!"

"Boom!"

Although it was at least a kilometer away, when a row of rusty cannon barrels simultaneously fired projectiles, Linwin's ears buzzed.

His hearing far exceeded that of ordinary people, so after some thought, Linwin used magic to create a simple soundproof barrier around him.

"That's Plank's ship, the best ship in Bilgewater." Sarah watched a row of projectiles shooting towards the sea monster, revealing a smile.

"And now, it's mine."

"Is Plank dead?" Linwin asked.

"Not dead, but I think it's about time." The two stood side by side, looking at the sea. Sarah reached out to support her waist, whispered softly, "I shredded one of his arms, without a ship, without people, and he's been missing ever since." Sarah suddenly paused, shook her head and sighed, "No, Plank is dead."

"And my revenge..." Sarah looked towards the sea.

The Lanternfish and a group of strange fish kept attacking Bilgewater.

Every time the 200-meter giant fish turned over, Linwin felt the ground under his feet become unstable.

This was a real sea monster. The Siren's Wail, the huge ship, in front of it, was like a toy.

Sarah looked at the Lanternfish, and behind it, a sea creature stood up and slapped towards Bilgewater. The skilled dockworkers on the pier set up defense measures proficiently, thanks to the ancient culture of the Buhru people still remaining in Bilgewater, allowing them to resist these sea monsters well.

The Harrowing was more exaggerated than this, and the people of Bilgewater successfully resisted it.

Although not relying on their own strength.

Linwin looked at the scene in front of him.

The scene in front of him was quite interesting.

The beautiful and strong woman's face softened, stepping onto a rock, she looked towards the sea, the sea breeze tousled Sarah's red hair, and her captain's coat rustled. Her fair skin was splashed with seawater brought up by the sea monsters in the distance, emitting an untimely fishy smell. Below, countless Bilgewater residents resisted the sea monsters' attacks, and where she looked, several huge monsters also roared in agony.

It was like a painting, a painting with many flaws, but still stunningly beautiful.

"Mr. Linwin, shall we go down and help?" Suddenly, Sarah moved, smiling as she spoke.

Linwin thought for a moment, about to speak, but heard cheers from the crew below.

"Here she comes, the truth bearer!" a man controlling a giant harpoon shouted as he twisted the locking ropes.

"Look at that ship, it's Illaoi! She's come to help us."

"With her here, everything will be fine." A female hunter breathed a sigh of relief, then sat down on the ground.

Sarah also saw a small boat, heading straight to where the sea monsters were most numerous.

The boat emitted a faint green light, and as several fish a few meters in size approached, they suddenly flapped a few times, then quickly fled.

Illaoi stood at the bow, with the statue of Nagakabouros placed at her feet.

Sarah sighed in relief. As long as Illaoi appeared, whether it was a sea monster attack or the Harrowing, she could solve it easily.

Not only did she have a body as strong as a giant, but as the Truth Bearer, she also had the ability to summon the Sea Spirits to battle.

Those were also sea monsters, a group. Even bigger sea monsters than the ones before them.

Illaoi bent down, grabbed the statue with both hands, and placed it on her shoulders with a stern expression.

Then, she swung the statue forward with force.

Countless illusory energy tentacles gushed out from the statue, constantly growing until they materialized.

On the sea surface, surrounding Illaoi, was a huge pile of tentacles.

"Witness."

"The divine power of Nagakabouros!"

Illaoi bent down and pushed the statue forward. For a moment, tentacles several tens of meters high extended in all directions, fiercely slapping towards the Lanternfish.

And at that moment, a strong wind blew, and the small boat on the sea swayed, as if it would be overturned by the huge waves and sink to the bottom of the sea at any moment.

Beside Illaoi, a scruffy, dirty man with a beard smirked as he walked up to the bow.

"Boom!!!"

Several huge tentacles slapped the Lanternfish, and with just one blow, this fish, which had troubled countless people in Bilgewater for a long time, was directly knocked into the sea.

The people of Bilgewater simultaneously cheered.

Whether it was the Harrowing or sea monster attacks, Illaoi could easily handle them!

But Sarah's face suddenly turned not so good.

Her face turned pale, Sarah stared ahead, fingers gripping the gun tightly, turning her knuckles white.

"Click!"

The gun was loaded, and with his only remaining right hand, Gangplank looked at a place in Bilgewater from afar.

There stood Sarah and Linwin.

The waves crashed against Gangplank, making his head tilt, but he quickly turned back.

Pointing his gun at Bilgewater, Gangplank grinned, releasing a fierce aura despite his miserable appearance.

For a moment, many people noticed the man beside Illaoi, noticed Gangplank.

"Bilgewater, your king is back!"
