A Beautiful and Moving Bounty Hunter, This Girl is So Cute!
"What are you all still looking at! Don't you have anything to do?"
Rell roared, "Everyone, get back to your own business!"
Rell was a figure of some importance in the Upper City. After his shout, the crowd naturally dispersed, but curious eyes remained fixed on Li Ke and Jinx.
Rell's men threw Celia and the others out of the tavern. Celia's companions outside the tavern quickly helped her up and, without looking back, led her away from the Upper City.
There can be no business for three months. It's not that they can't survive, but it looks like Celia's hunting party will go hungry before the "hunting ban" imposed by Rell arrives.
Not everyone in Bilgewater became a pirate; most people engaged in "legitimate jobs." Among these, hunting crews were the mainstream occupation. Here, "beasts" refers to sea monsters. When a ship went out to sea and hunted a huge sea monster, after dividing the spoils, even ordinary people, not counting the leadership, could live a carefree life for ten days to half a month.
Of course, high profits come with high risks. If sea monsters were so easy to catch, they wouldn't be called sea monsters. These enormous creatures, often tens or hundreds of meters long, mean that every hunt is a life-threatening endeavor, and every voyage is a challenge to death.
Inside the Blackfire Stone Tavern, Rell approached Li Ke with a fawning smile. "Lord Li Ke, do you think this matter can be handled this way?"
"Sure, my wife and I didn't suffer any loss." Li Ke nodded.
Jinx picked up a water glass and then a bottle of liquor, pouring herself a drink and sneaking a couple of sips when Li Ke wasn't looking.
Damn it, she's not a child anymore!
Why is it that neither Li Ke, Vander, Silco, nor even Vi, who is always drinking, want her to drink?
"Ahem!" Li Ke's attention was always on Jinx, and of course, Jinx's little movements did not escape his notice. He just coughed. Jinx looked at Li Ke, and when she saw Li Ke glaring at her, she avoided Li Ke gaze, grumbled, put down the bottle, and obediently took out a bottle of milk from her backpack.
Its main selling point is that it's obedient and well-behaved.
With her shoe tips touching the wooden bench, Jinx squatted down on it and obediently and adorably drank her milk, gulping it down until her mouth was covered in white stains.
After beating someone up, I'm tired, so I'll have something to drink to quench my thirst!
Seeing this, Rell was certain.
This isn't a gigolo.
Because what kind of gigolo lives off a woman like that?
Bilgewater has many powerful and capable women, and Rell has dealt with them before. They would never show such an expression to the men they keep, much less be so obedient.
"Li Ke, when are you coming to my place?" Rogge asked from the side. He glanced at Rell, understood what Rell meant, and said, "Alright, stop trying to get close. I'll take good care of Blackfire Stone in the future."
Upon hearing this, Rell nodded repeatedly, bowed excitedly to Li Ke, and then left with his men.
Of course, before leaving, he also asked the restaurant staff to bring him a fruit platter, dried meat, and a basket of drinks.
Li Ke and Rogge sat at a table and started chatting.
"The route Mr. Silco gave me was very useful, passing through three small offshore islands with various workshops and smugglers, but I haven't had a chance to thank him yet," Rogge said, taking a sip of his drink.
"Why don't you just go to Zaun next time?" Li Ke said, picking up a piece of dried fish and putting it in his mouth while chewing.
These dried fish taste pretty good, with a hint of spiciness and a pleasantly salty and savory flavor. Although they're called dried fish, they're not dry at all; instead, they have a slightly chewy, tendon-like texture.
They were chewy and delicious, so Li Ke grabbed two pieces and gave them to Jinx was quietly drinking milk instead of alcohol.
Jinx saw that Li Ke didn't turn his head, but grabbed a dried fish and brought it towards her. She leaned forward, opened her small mouth, and started chewing the dried fish.
"Next time is fine too. I have another business deal to do in Zaun soon, but Zaun doesn't lack food now, does it?" Rogge said with a touch of melancholy.
I remember a few years ago, in the business dealings between Zaun and Bilgewater, Zaun would often ask Bilgewater for drinks. But what about now?
Zaun now has its own industrial winery; they're making alcohol themselves.
All kinds of alcoholic beverages!
He asked curiously, "Li Ke, does your Zaun still need fresh seafood like fish?"
"Of course we need it. Who would complain about having too much food?" Li Ke said matter-of-factly. He smiled and continued, "And we need more than just a little. It's true that Zaun doesn't lack food right now, but fish can be processed into cooked food and snacks. These dried fish are quite good; they'd be great as snacks to go with drinks. The Zaunite would love them."
Rogge nodded, and the more he listened to Li Ke speak, the more he realized how much Zaun had changed.
Rogge knew that all these changes were brought to Zaun by the young man before him.
Because there were statues of him everywhere in Zaun, he later found out why the Zaunite built the statues. The person in the statues was their great hero, the one who saved Zaun, changed Zaun, and was the eternal lord of Zaun in their hearts.
"That's good. The corpses of sea monsters waiting to be slaughtered on the docks have piled up into mountains, and the stench of decay has attracted countless sea monsters." Rogge didn't finish his sentence.
Because Jinx next to her made a nauseous little face.
Seeing this, Li Ke chuckled and said, "Don't misunderstand, old Rogge. She just arrived at the Bilgewater docks this afternoon and saw some... rather... unusual things."
Rogge smiled upon hearing this, "I understand. Even I find those smells unbearable. They're so strong, haha, even if you wet your face towel with the strongest rum, you still can't get rid of the stench."
"The dockworkers are used to being careless. Sliced meat, entrails, and blood that can never be washed away; white droppings left behind by seagulls after they've stolen food; and those uncivilized, uncultured, damned bastards urinating and defecating wherever they please. Ha, this is our Bilgewater." Old Rogge raised his glass, took a big gulp, and said loudly.
Li Ke also took a sip.
Then, his gaze suddenly froze.
Jinx, standing to the side, also got off her chair, her black boots landing on the floor. She put one hand on her hip and squinted at the woman walking towards her.
The woman who came out was followed by a group of people. She had beautiful wine-red hair that reached her waist, and she was wearing a black coat. The coat was not zipped up, revealing her snow-white abdomen. On her extremely beautiful waist, there was a black and white bra, which accentuated her two breasts that swayed with her movements. Most of the men had their eyes on them, drooling and unable to look away.
She was wearing black trousers and riding boots, looking both elegant and beautiful, and was walking over with a smile.
A pair of beautiful emerald green eyes were looking at Li Ke's table.
Seeing this, everyone around her in the tavern turned their attention to her.
Celia had approached that man in the same way before, and then she was beaten like a dead dog and thrown out of the tavern, losing all face.
Now, does anyone still dare to come?
However, everyone fell silent because the woman who came out was more famous, more beautiful, and also more dangerous Celia.
She became famous not only for her beautiful appearance, but also for her ruthless methods.
She arrived in Bilgewater alone a few years ago and, in just six months, became the most famous bounty hunter in Bilgewater. Countless pirates have died at her hands, and many people want to take revenge on her, but all of them have failed and become yet another soul under her gun.
Then, she spent two years building a powerful team, conquering Bilgewater with her intellect and strength, and even driving out Gangplank, leaving the Gangplank King adrift for years. She even threatened more than once to kill Gangplank and let the Pirate King taste the bitterness of losing his life.
At first, people thought she was crazy, but later, after she escaped Gangplank's men several times and retaliated against Gangplank by killing and hanging those who tried to harm her on the docks, people gradually began to believe that she wasn't exaggerating.
She was serious.
And now, she walked smilingly towards Li Ke's seat.
Upon seeing this, Jinx gripped her cup tightly, her cute little face turning incredibly sour.
This woman is so much prettier than the previous one, and her breasts are so much bigger!
It's trembling, it's almost about to bounce out!
It's infuriating! Not only is she tall, but why isn't she fat?
Looking at the other person's swaying waist, Jinx felt a tickle in her teeth. Her waist was also very thin, and her hip-to-waist ratio was excellent. Li Ke often hugged her waist to sleep at night.
However, when compared to the other woman, she found that their waists were equally thin, and Jinx's skin and abs were even better than the other woman's, but their hip measurements were not even in the same league!
Just like children and adults?!
Ugh, I really do need to drink more milk!
Jinx sensed danger as she looked at the other person and stepped forward, ready to unleash her anger.
So what if she's good-looking? I can still beat her up!
But seeing so many people behind them... wow, if a fight breaks out, will Li Ke help me?
Thinking this, Jinx secretly glanced at Li Ke, only to see that Li Ke was also looking at the woman strangely.
Seeing this, she became even angrier.
Never mind!
Even if she gets beaten up, or even if she gets beaten up by multiple people, she'll still beat them up!
This fight has to be fought!
But as soon as Jinx turned around, she saw the woman standing right in front of her.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Sarah, a bounty hunter. You're Silco's daughter, right? I have a business deal I'd like to discuss with your father. How about we talk about it?"
Sarah extended her hand, her calloused hand facing Jinx, a gentle smile on her face.
Jinx was stunned, blinked, and stared blankly at Sarah.
Hmm.
Weren't you looking for Li Ke?
Yes.
Were they after me?
Why?
Meanwhile, Li Ke raised an eyebrow.
Yes, Li Ke had a superficial understanding of Sarah, and this beautiful future sea empress of Bilgewater could be described in one sentence—
If Jinx is love-obsessed, then Sarah is career-obsessed.
This woman doesn't talk about love; she only cares about her career. At first, she wanted to kill Gangplank to avenge her family, but after taking control of Bilgewater, she began to think about the future of Bilgewater.
In short, Li Ke's prized charm skills might win Sarah's favor, but is it possible that Sarah will fall for Li Ke directly like most people would?
That's impossible.
Thinking about it again, Li Ke believed that Sarah must not have heard Rogge's comment about the Lord of Zaun, otherwise she would definitely be looking for him, not Jinx.
But looking at Jinx, who was looking at him with embarrassment at being approached by a woman for the first time in her life, and a beautiful, busty woman Jinx she disliked, and hoping to ask for his help, Li Ke found it amusing and decided not to tell anyone.
It's rare to see Jinx in such a distressed state.
Haha, so cute!
Li Ke is a womanizer, but now, his lust is only directed at Jinx. No matter how beautiful Sarah is or how big her breasts are, Li Ke won't pay her any excessive attention.
His surprise was simply because he hadn't expected Miss Fortune to be in the tavern. It's perfectly normal to be surprised to see a hero he frequently uses in the game, isn't it?
"I... you're looking for me?" Jinx gritted her teeth when she saw Li Ke avoiding her gaze, then turned to look at Sarah.
"Well, it's not just because you're Silco's daughter. Also, this is the first time I've ever seen such a lovely girl in Bilgewater. Even if you weren't Silco's daughter, I would still want to get to know you. I like to protect beautiful things," Sarah said with a charming laugh, exuding allure in every gesture.
She wasn't joking; she had indeed overheard the conversation about Jinx being Silco's daughter. In fact, she had already noticed Jinx while she was in the tavern.
When Celia approached her, Sarah considered stopping her, but before she could act, she saw the girl hit Celia.
Well, she's really skilled!
They're swift and decisive when they fight!
Moreover, this girl is really pretty. She has beautiful blue hair tied into two small buns at the back of her head, with side-swept bangs in front. Her hair falls naturally and smoothly against her cheeks. Her face shape is also very pretty, presenting an oval face, but it is a little chubby, not a standard egg-shaped face.
A small, straight nose, thin, moist lips, and those beautiful, Big Eyes.
Sarah had never met a girl like this before in Bilgewater.
"I don't know you, and I don't want to know you. Your breasts are too big; I get milk sickness, and you make me nauseous!" Jinx said seriously.
Sarah was taken aback for a moment, then laughed. "It's okay, we'll get to know each other after chatting. As for your milk phobia," she said, looking at the other woman's flat chest, she covered her mouth with her hand and said, "I'm so sorry, mine is natural. If you don't believe me, feel it yourself."
As she spoke, Sarah puffed out her chest, making her snow-white breasts even more prominent.
What does "exploded chest" mean?
This is what you call an exploded chest!
"You fucking bastard." Jinx gasped.
Sarah pretended not to hear Jinx's profanity, and instead turned to look at Rogge, saying:
"Rogge, would you mind making room for me?"
"..." Rogge looked at Sarah, then at Li Ke, seemingly hesitant.
He wanted to help Li Ke, but he really couldn't afford to offend Sarah.
He was indeed a big shot on the island of Beacon, but he couldn't compare to Sarah, the woman who drove away Gangplank, vowed to kill Gangplank, and is still alive and well today, with her power growing ever stronger.
Sarah is the real big shot on Beebe Island.
"It's alright, come on, let's all have a drink together," Li Ke said, seeing Rogge's hesitation.
Then, he looked at Jinx and said, "Come sit down, Jinx. They came here specifically to chat with you."
Li Ke teases Jinx.
"I actually hope she's coming to see you, so I can just take action!" Jinx said irritably as she sat down next to Li Ke, arms crossed. Then, she began to squeeze her arms together, creating a small, round, and cute shape.
Yes, Jinx now actually hopes this beautiful woman is looking for Li Ke, so she can take action directly.
But the other party came to see me, and with good intentions at that, so I can't really react negatively!
Sarah noticed her subtle squeezing of her chest, but she didn't say anything; instead, the smile in her eyes deepened.
This girl is named Jinx.
She's so cute!
