MTL - Weird Deep-sea Game, I Can Fish Without Limit-Chapter 204 Revenge is just the beginning
Wind's Rest City, the square in the outer city with more and more people.
Craftsmen are doing the final cleaning work on the statue of the Seven Gods.
The statue of the Seven Gods carved with pure white prismarine has stood in the center of the square. The warm sun of early autumn shines on the statue, which exudes holy brilliance.
In the center of the square, craftsmen are building a high platform, and there is also a viewing area, where they are making final preparations for the celebration that will start in the evening.
On the edge of the square, Li Fengzheng and Kestrel were chatting casually while thinking about plans for tonight.
"Moros is too optimistic about Jory, and he put all his political resources on his nephew."
Looking at the more and more luxurious celebrations in front of him, Kestrel said with emotion:
"Actually, do you know that although Jory is very talented on the extraordinary path, the king doesn't like Jory.
Even if there is no precedent for the king to decide the heir to the governor of the island, and generally speaking he will not do so.
But if Governor Fell really intends to make Jory his successor, the king will definitely dissuade him. "
"why?"
Listening to the gossip about Kung Falcon, Li Feng asked curiously.
Although after today, Penrose Fell would probably never want to make Jory his heir again.
But Li Feng was still curious, why the king didn't like Jory?
"I think, even if you haven't dealt with Jory much, you can feel his violent, paranoid and completely self-centered character."
Kestrel replied:
"A person with his personality is not suitable to be a governor to rule an island, or even to have rights. He will do extraordinary things and implicate many people.
It's also really strange, there has never been a person with such a personality in his family's ancestors. "
Kestrel still likes to gossip when he has nothing to do.
'It turned out to be like this. '
Li Feng nodded in agreement.
Jory's paranoid character, Shia believes that it is the reason for the inbreeding of Moros and Celine Weiss.
But as a player, Li Feng, who has experienced the era of information explosion, believes that compared with genetic problems, the over-spoiled elders are more likely to create this kind of personality.
"So, when I said that Moros, the chief political adviser, was really smart and confused for a while."
Kestrel saw Moros in the crowd who was busy with Jory, shook his head and sighed:
"Moros's investment is not rewarded, and the crew of the shipping company will be unlucky again."
In addition to being the Chief Political Officer of Storm's End, Moros is also the boss of the Wind's End Shipping Company, controlling most of the shipping business on Storm Island.
As a capitalist, when his investment fails and he loses money, he naturally has to make up for it from the shipping industry under his name.
In short, someone will tighten his belt.
When he had difficulty in cash flow, he told the crew that the company could not make money, and then laid off employees or made a big deal for the crew.
If they pay less and stop paying their salaries for a few months, wouldn't they save money?
As for how the crew lived, what did Moros have to do with him, anyway, it wasn't the first time he had done this.
That's why Kestrel simply said that in the end, only the crew were the poor ones.
"Moros once told me..."
Kestrel recalled what Moros had said to him last time when the shipping company paid the crew's salary with damp rice:
"The truth is not important, as long as the interests are maximized, even if you use lies and deception, the Seven Gods will not blame you."
Kestrel's tone is sarcasm, emotion, powerlessness and worry.
Li Feng understands his worries, but from Li Feng's point of view, what Kestrel is worried about should happen too late.
Following the line of sight of the kestrel, Li Feng also saw Moros and Jory.
At this moment, Moros was earnestly talking to Jory, but judging from his body movements, Jory was very indifferent, and he was too paranoid to listen to any words.
In the morning sun, across the busy crowd, Li Feng suddenly noticed something.
That is, Moros's hair is dark brown, but Jory, who is standing with him, has blond hair.
Jory has the same hair color as Céline Wise and Penrose Fell.
'Could it be... Shia made a mistake? '
Li Feng does not understand genetics, but he has heard a saying.
is the hair color of the child, and most of it will be inherited from the darker hair color of the parents.
That is to say, if Jory is really Moros's child, then his hair color should also be dark brown.
But looking at the layout of the square at this moment, and everything Moros has paid for Jory.
Li Feng felt that maybe not only Xia was wrong, but also Celine Weiss and Moros.
It wasn't Penrose Fell who took the blame, but Moros, who was paying for the child he mistook.
But what does it matter.
As Moros himself said:
‘The truth is not important, as long as the interests are maximized, even if lies and deceit are used, the Seven Gods will not blame them. '
Li Feng doesn't intend to expose the lies that may exist, so it will continue like this, anyway, he will echo Moros's style.
Maybe even more interesting.
Li Feng unconsciously looked at the increasingly crowded crowd in front of him, thinking about what Shia discovered, the love letter between Celine Weiss and Moros, and the personal relationship between them.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt emotional again. Shea did have her own way. She turned into a cat to inquire about news, and said it under the guise of a great fortune-teller.
Physical divination can really bluff people.
Just when Li Feng was thinking wildly, he suddenly heard Kestrel's teasing sigh:
"I finally know why you don't want to go to Wangcheng."
Li Feng:? ? ?
What's the situation? Withdrawing his thoughts, Li Feng felt that Kestrel seemed to be gossiping again.
"She is indeed more beautiful than the ladies in Wangcheng, I can understand your choice."
Li Feng:? ? ?
Following the line of sight of the kestrel, Li Feng saw Xi Ya among the crowd watching the statue of the Seven Gods.
For some reason, she seemed very interested in the statue of the Seven Gods, and was looking at it thoughtfully.
"Ugh this..."
Li Feng probably understood that Kestrel must have heard about what happened some time ago.
Indeed, in the eyes of others, he and Shia have a very good relationship.
Just thinking about whether to defend himself, Li Feng heard Kestrel continue to say:
"You, I remember a long time ago, I planned to introduce you to the Great Fortune Teller, but you were not interested at all at that time.
I thought you were particularly resistant to beautiful young ladies, but I didn't expect..."
Kestrel said in a tone that any man can understand.
Li Feng: ...Haha.
After being reminded by Kestrel, Li Feng also recalled that Kestrel really wanted to introduce him to Xiya when the demons invaded Wind's End.
But I didn't know at that time that the great fortune-teller of Storm's End was the little black dragon he had contracted with.
It's just that it's been such a long time, how could Kestrel still remember this.
"The Great Fortune Teller's life experience is actually quite pitiful. Her mother is dead. If it weren't for her talent for divination, her situation in Storm's End would have been even more difficult."
Kestrel was a bit of a reminder, and said to Li Feng:
"You may have also heard that the great fortune-teller's mother was poisoned by Jory's mother.
The people Mrs. Weiss wanted to poison to death originally included the great fortune-teller, but perhaps because of the pity of the seven gods, the great fortune-teller survived.
But this will not change her situation in Storm's End, so if you are sincere with her, you'd better find a way to leave Wind's End.
Otherwise, Jory, Mrs. Weiss, and even Moros, who supports Jory, may even target you. Jory's provocation just now is an example.
You can go to the king city, you can join the ring of the earth, the king is very optimistic about you, the ring of the earth also needs a fortuneteller, I will take care of everything for you. "
Kestrel told Li Feng about his proposal, and Li Feng was very grateful after hearing it, but actually felt even more tired.
Because Kestrel misunderstood everything.
The morning sun in early autumn is very good, and the square in the outer city is warm and pleasant.
Kestrel has other things to do, he bid farewell to Li Feng and left, while Li Feng calmed down his complicated mood by himself.
‘Things have developed like this, and I don’t know if Kestrel will be in a complicated mood when the truth is revealed in two days. '
The Kestrel, who thought he knew everything and reminded Li Feng, misunderstood everything.
First of all, Shea is really dead. Now Shea is not the one who showed divination talent since she was a child.
Secondly, Jory and Mrs. Weiss who are hostile to her, and even Moros, I'm afraid...
Besides, Shia now uses physical divination, and she is not the divination talent that the Ring of the Earth needs.
Li Feng once asked Xi Ya if she has been promoted to the fourth and seventh ranks, does she also have a strong divination ability.
But Xiya told Li Feng that although she is a spell weaver, she actually hates learning divination, and she prefers to use flames to clean up enemies.
Li Feng wanted to persuade him at the time, but he thought that the other party was a fourth-rank and seventh-rank giant dragon, and basically had a ceiling of combat power, so there was nothing to say.
Don't think about that anymore, Li Feng thought back to the present moment, he saw that Xi Ya was still studying the statue of the Seven Gods made of prismarine, so he wanted to ask.
But when he squeezed into the crowd, he suddenly found that Jory, who was standing on the high platform, was looking down at Shia.
There is contempt, greed, and something very disgusting in his eyes.
Seeing this kind of thing, Li Feng was a little displeased, but at the same time, an old-fashioned but very effective plan emerged in his mind.
Passing through the crowd praising the statue of the Seven Gods, Li Feng walked to a position very close to Xia, and put his arm around her waist again.
Li Feng's actions startled Xi Ya, who was concentrating on it, she silently raised her head to look at Li Feng, as if she wanted to ask what was going on.
Li Feng was also a little embarrassed, but he didn't pass the contract, so he just lowered his head and whispered in Xi Ya's ear:
"I suddenly realized that I was also quite naive."
Shea didn't understand at first, but when she noticed Jory on the high platform, she suddenly understood.
"Pfft."
Xia laughed, and rubbed her head on Li Feng's shoulder cooperatively and affectionately.
The routine is indeed old, but judging by the veins on Jory's forehead, the old routine is really useful.
Leave him alone, Li Feng asked Xi Ya:
"What, is there something wrong with this statue?"
"Hmm~"
Leaning halfway on Li Feng, Xi Ya nodded:
"This prismarine is too big and complete, I always feel a little strange."
"I heard that it is indeed very rare."
Li Feng thought for a while and replied, he has learned some information related to this prismarine from the few words of the people around him these days.
"But it is not a rare problem to be so big and so complete. It can even be said to be a miracle."
Xia is a little surprised that Li Feng lacks understanding of prismarine, this human being knows everything.
Didn’t worry too much about this, Shia continued:
"When my mother was in power, she collected a lot of treasure and hid it under Mount Doom.
But I can definitely confirm that the piece of prismarine she collected and treasured is not as big as this one. "
"Maybe your mother didn't find this piece at that time."
Li Feng felt that this should not be the point, but after thinking about it, he asked again:
"Can you sense something is wrong?"
Xia shook her head feeling lonely when she heard the words:
"That's not true."
"Since this is the case, don't think too much about it."
Li Feng concluded with a smile, then looked at the greedy young dragon, and said:
"Why don't you move this prismarine under Mount Doom when you become the Queen of the Black Dragon?"
"Huh? Did I mean that?"
Xia puffed her cheeks to retort, but the next second she smiled again:
"But what you said makes sense, I really like this stone."
"…All right."
Li Feng looked up at the sky speechlessly, and after finding that the sun had risen to the mid-heaven, he said:
"Let's go, go home and eat."
After that, they left the square under Jory's eyes full of resentment and desire for revenge.
…
September 17th, the eleventh game cycle, the endless sea world.
Starting in the evening, in the city square outside Wind's Rest, the celebrations for the statues of the Seven Gods and Jory continued lively until night.
Although Li Feng and Xi Ya both received invitation letters, they were not interested in the celebration, so they did not participate.
This made Jory, the protagonist of the banquet, suffocated.
He is the protagonist of today, combined with the intimate behavior he saw Li Feng and Xi Ya in the square in the morning, he originally wanted to use the celebration party to embarrass the two of them in front of everyone.
But it's a pity that the other party didn't have this opportunity for him.
The moon was in the sky, and because of the strong sponsorship of Moros, the celebration party in the square was still crowded and very lively.
Jory glanced at the square again, but still did not see Li Feng and Xi Ya.
The plan was miscalculated, and Jory angrily pushed away the person who wanted to toast him, and went alone to the remote part of the square, where the toilet was temporarily built for the celebration.
Along the way, Jory muttered to himself angrily:
‘They dare to ignore Storm’s End’s invitation? How dare they? '
Recalling that at noon, Xi Ya actually left with Li Feng, and it was not in the direction of returning to Storm's End.
And they haven't shown up all afternoon and night, they must be doing something.
"It's a scandal, it's a scandal, I'm going to talk about it, I'm going to make them..."
Leaving the square and walking on the dimly lit path, Jory was talking through gritted teeth.
But at this moment, at the corner of the path ahead, under the dim light, two figures suddenly flashed past Jory's eyes.
Using the strength of alcohol, he tried his best to look, and saw that it was Li Feng and Xi Ya whom he hated.
"Okay, it's so late, how dare they..."
Jory remembered what Moros had said to him that morning.
Moros said that Rhine is the king's man, and he has the title of the king himself, so he told himself not to provoke him easily.
‘Unless you have definite evidence that Rhine committed a crime or misbehaved. '
Seeing the intimate backs of the two in front of him, Jory was excited.
"Abducting the governor's daughter, it should be considered a crime and misbehavior!"
Unwilling to give up the opportunity, Qiao Li chased after him. He wanted to make Li Feng lose face and make Xi Ya a **** that everyone despises.
With great excitement, Jory followed the figure in front of him and turned around two blocks.
He didn't notice at all that he was far away from the banquet, and the surroundings were already deserted.
Turned another corner, just when Jory thought he was about to catch Li Feng and Xi Ya.
He could clearly see that the background of the two people in front of them was gradually glowing with blue light, becoming illusory and tall.
As they turned, Jory saw two hideous troll faces.
And, these two troll ghosts have started walking towards him.
Realizing something was wrong, Jory turned and ran for his life.
But as soon as he turned around, he saw behind him, at some point, a taller troll ghost was already standing.
At this moment, the tall troll reached out and squeezed Jory's neck.
The barrier blocked the continuous screams, and the square was still lively.
Under the moonlight, everything is as usual.
