The Mage Behind the Scenes From the Twin Cities Chapter 279

After discussing something about the 'protection fee' with Ziben, Stobie suddenly thought about it and asked with a frown:

"There is a problem. If we want to achieve the established benefits, we must first prove that we have strength."

Those nobles and businessmen are very shrewd. If they can't prove that they have the strength to **** them, then no matter how low the price is, others will not agree.

Hearing Stoby's doubts, Ziben smiled confidently, obviously he had already had a draft:

"Have you heard of the 'N-series detector'?"

"N series..." Stoby frowned slightly, thinking for a while before he was not sure:

"It seems to be a nautical detector launched by the Empire. In the Explorers Association, you can use the merit points to switch to N01 or N02."

"That's right." Ziben smiled confidently and explained in detail:

"The maximum detection range of N02 is 20 kilometers, which is purely mechanical equipment. The N03 detector was designed by Orianna, using magic cubes as energy sources, and the detection range is close to 200 kilometers."

"200km..."

There was a hint of surprise on Stoby's face. If this detector really had this function, then they could avoid 99% of pirates in advance by relying on the detector.

The convenience speaks for itself.

As it stands, most pirate gangs now use wooden sailboats.

When navigating at sea, it is necessary to rely on the naked eye to find the target, but the base of pirates and merchant ships is large enough, which leads to the frequent occurrence of bad incidents of looting and burning ships.

"But..." Stoby hesitated, "it's not worth it to buy this kind of detector for those small merchant ships..."

Ziben shook his finger: "This is for you."

"N03 detectors can be customized. If you give a small shopping mall a detection beacon, it can be highlighted on the detection instrument. About 20 N03 detectors can cover the entire route."

Stoby's eyes widened: "20 N03...! Then you need at least 20 fleets to escort, which is not a small expense."

"As long as there are hands, the Empire can provide warships, which are better than those iron ships." Ziben rubbed his right thumb and index finger, "Of course, the price will not be cheap."

When Stoby heard it, his worries were no longer a problem, so he let go and said bluntly:

"Money is not a problem, everything we do is for the empire!"

"...That's right." Ziben rolled his eyes while agreeing.

For an imperial fanatic like Stoby, he was very helpless while feeling emotional.

For the sake of the millennium, the empire continues to draw blood without annexing the rest of the country.

Stoby and Sarah may now have empires, but how many generations will such loyalty remain in the future?

So in his point of view, this kind of thing, it is best to tie up interests to form a habit.

And the people stationed in Bilgewater can't be people sent by Noxus, those people preferably have nothing to do with Noxus.

Even, the relationship with those in power within the empire, it is best not to be so close.

After Ziben returned to the Empire last time, he talked to his father once, and it was only at that time that he understood something.

Under Ryan's deliberate control, the empire is slowly transforming.

Once Noxus, to get everything it wants by force.

Now Noxus is more inclined to boil frogs in warm water, and slowly absorb the national strength of other regions to strengthen itself.

Collect talents from all over the world, gather the essence of heaven and earth, obtain the essence of all things, and be called the honor of the world...

This is the ideal Noxian Empire under the crown of Ryan.

It is precisely because more and more people are aware of this that the execution and cohesion of the empire is getting higher and higher.

Who doesn't expect great things from their empire...

At least Ziben knew in his heart that he could not resist the temptation etched in history.

"Oh, yes!" Ziben thought of something he didn't say and added: "Don't forget to secretly fund those relatively weak pirates."

"Why is that?" Stoby wondered.

Ziben frowned in disgust: "If the flight path is not chaotic, how can you receive more money?"

"Uh... that makes sense, but will this be discovered?" Stoby looked hesitant and worried.

"Of course it will, so the Doom Tavern has to be established. Those merchants and nobles will offer bounties, and then the bounty hunters will naturally kill those pirates diligently and dedicatedly," Ziben said.

"It's none of our business... it's just that they gave us their heads and pirate flags."

"Open your mind, how could it be okay?"

Ziben knocked on his head and said helplessly:

"Who cares how these pirates die, and in the end we take them to those people to exchange money, this is our sincerity."

"...This..."

Stoby hesitated, but in the end he didn't say anything.

It's not that he is stupid, but he has never seen such an operation. Obviously, they found someone to loot the merchant ship and took the bulk of their goods.

After that, the pirates must be killed, and those heads will be exchanged for the merchant's bounty.

Wouldn't that be... so immoral.

"Hey, I said you wouldn't be thinking about justice. Let's not say we're not Demacians, we're all pirates, so what are you talking about?" Ziben looked at Stoby suspiciously.

"No, how is it possible!"

Stoby waved his hands again and again, and said:

"I'm just wondering if the number of pirates will decrease in this way, so that those merchants and nobles will not be willing to pay."

If the route is too safe, who is willing to pay for protection?

"Yes, that's a good question!"

Ziben nodded with satisfaction, and even glanced at Stoby unexpectedly.

Soon Ziben clapped his hands and thought: "This problem is easy to solve!"

"Uh, how to solve it?" Stoby's eyes widened.

He really just asked casually just now, but he didn't expect Ziben to even think of a solution.

Facing the curious eyes, Ziben replied casually:

"Then just keep this route in chaos."

"What's the mess?"

Stoby asked, he really couldn't think of anyone who would make a loss-making business. Pirates will die in the future, and the safety factor is basically 0. Who would want to be a pirate.

"Without pirates, can't you have people disguised as pirates?" Ziben looked pale.

"My own disguise?" Stoby was even more confused, "but aren't we going to use them for bounties?"

My own people kill their own people, how do you play this?

"At sea war, it is normal for ships to crash and die. Get some cheap wooden sailboats and hang pirate flags and sink them in front of some people."

Ziben continued:

"Pirates, how can you be a pirate if you don't kill people. When you loot, you will kill everyone who has seen the appearance. Don't leave the handle. Of course, it's okay to leave the handle."

"What do you say? Wouldn't it be exposed if you leave the handle?" Stoby asked in confusion.

Ziben sighed: "As long as they don't go too far, they can still kill you at sea?"

"That's true!" Stoby was stunned, his eyes lit up.

After listening to Ziben talk about this long paragraph, he has full confidence in the future of Bilgewater's development.

This is a golden trade route, and it is bound to create greater benefits for the empire.

Meanwhile, Ziben was thinking about something else.

He remembered that because of the rapid development of mechanical technology recently, batches of ships built by the empire were waiting to be eliminated.

The first few batches of repealed products are obviously very disadvantageous to be treated as steel.

In the future, the sea situation will change, and Bilgewater should have a lot of ships.

But it must not be all given to Bilgewater, otherwise there will be too few ships to deal with.

Then give Stoby some better quality boats and sell the inferior ones to pirates and Demacia or Piltover on the black market.

Hmm...that's perfect!

Ziben thought to himself, and nodded his chin in satisfaction. With this achievement, his father's status should be raised.

I heard that the two vice presidents of the empire have now completed the magic leap, and their strength has risen to a status equal to that of a god.

I don't know if there will be a chance in the future, it will be his or my father's turn.

Well, anyway, for the rise of the empire, let's start with making money!

Ziben's eyes at this moment also ignited the same blood as Stoby.

Ionia, Port Lane.

The tall, muscular Seti strode into the arena that he was very familiar with again.

But unlike usual, this time, his identity has also changed a little.

The direction he walked was no longer the player's rest area, but walked up the steps step by step.

Seti's eyes narrowed slightly, and the maids and attendants lowered their bodies along the way, with expressions of awe on their faces.

Seti's peripheral vision swept over them without any reluctance, and was looked up to and watched, this was a feeling he had never experienced before.

It is not fear of his strength, or worship of his violence.

These servants, simply because of the change in his identity, became in awe.

"The taste of power is so wonderful!"

Sett could clearly feel that every time he took a step higher, it was like saying goodbye to the humble self in the past.

In the past, even if he could fight with both fists, he was just a thug in the arena.

But now, with just a simple sentence from Ho Lun, he has become the master of the arena.

It was so easy, but it made him feel a little unreal.

After stepping over the last step, Seti still tried his best to open his eyes wide and look at this completely different scenery, even in the dazzling sunlight.

His current position is on the highest stone platform in the arena, which is generally a place where dignitaries and dignitaries can sit.

And now... he's one of those people himself.

"This way."

Hollen served in a set of administrators and stood upright on the stand.

Seti came over with a calm expression, and together with Ho Lun, watched the scene of the gladiator battle below.

According to the previous habit, he will be the first to observe the strength of these two people.

But now standing on the high platform, looking down at the two fighting together below. It seems that there is no need to make a judgment at all, and the two gladiators can be judged like ants.

This kind of feeling makes Sett very unfamiliar, not from the recognition of his own strength, but just something brought by changing his position and identity.

"I am very familiar with your eyes. When His Majesty took me to stand on the top of the mountains, his eyes were exactly the same as yours." There was a smile in Huo Lun's eyes.

"Your Majesty?" Seti was a little puzzled.

"The current controller of the Noxian Empire, the president of Trifali, the most powerful mage in the world, the crown of Ryan Meredith." Horren reported a long list of titles without hesitation.

Ryan Meredith...

Sett is familiar with this name, not to mention the changes he made to this land, Xin Zhao, who was also from the arena, became famous because he climbed on him.

"Have you seen that person?" Seti said.

Seeing Seti's interest in Ryan, Horen smiled and said with emotion:

"That's a man whose talent is unparalleled in the past and present. No one can match him in the past, and there may not be in the future."

"I heard he lost once." Seti said bluntly.

Horren's high evaluation surprised him.

But for some reason, dissatisfaction emerged in his heart.

The future king of Ionia...

This is Huo Lun's evaluation of his future, but it is far inferior to that crowned prince.

"He lost once, in Presidian not far away."

Huo Lun glanced at Seti, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and he frankly said that failure.

"But he hasn't lost since then. And, do you know why he lost?"

"I don't know, I heard that they held on for a long time, but they were still defeated by Ionia." Seti said calmly.

Since his debut in the arena, he has not lost a game, so naturally he does not know what it is like to fail.

He has always known that if he loses, he will die.

Huo Lun shook his head and said with emotion: "Your Majesty and the Great Commander, the two of them led the battle group under their command, and they defiantly resisted almost the whole of Ionia, and even attracted the soul of Ionia to take action in person."

Seti frowned slightly. He didn't know how strong Ionia was, but he also understood how incredible it was~www.mtlnovel.com~ As for the soul of Ionia, it was born in Ionia Ada also understands it very well.

All Ionians believe that the First Land has its own consciousness, and that consciousness with divine power is known as the Ionian Soul.

Against such a force with the strength of a chapter, Sett could imagine the strength of that majesty.

but...

There was a smile on the corner of Seti's mouth, and his eyes flashed with rare excitement and fiery.

The majesty can do it, why can't he?

Standing on the high platform, Seti had an inexplicable pride in his heart.

As an indomitable man, you should stand out from the crowd!

He, Sett, would prove it with both fists.

"Looking at your appearance, you should be dissatisfied." Huo Lun smiled gently. "The empire is based on strength. As long as you use your strength to obtain monstrous achievements, even if it is the position of the crown, you are not hopeless."

"Strength..."

Seti grinned, fists slamming together, thumping.

Using strength to gain power is just in line with his taste.

The gladiatorial fight below came to an end, the audience cheered loudly for the winner, and the venue was filled with enthusiasm.

With the restlessness and heat of the environment, Horen added a fire:

"The people who come today are all radicals among the vastayas who recognize the empire. How far you can do it is up to you."

"Hahahaha! Exactly what I want!"

Seti's eyes lit up, and he took two steps forward, letting his tall and burly body appear in front of all the audience.

He took a deep breath and suddenly shouted loudly like thunder:

"Everything... give me peace!!"
