Chapter 212 Bilgewater - Gangplank of the Ocean
When one of them was accidentally shot by an arrow, Ahri felt his life slowly draining away. As a natural predator, she instinctively tasted the flowing spirit, and she also harvested the scattered memories of the hunter - his lover who died in battle, and the children left at home in the south. Ahri gently pushed his emotions from fear to sadness and then to happiness, comforting him with warm scenes, so that his memory before death would stay on a sunny meadow.
Then she found she was beginning to understand the human words. Their language was like a vague dream. Then Ahri knew it was time to leave her pack.
She lives on the fringes of human society, and has never felt more alive. She still retains her predatory instincts, but is drawn to the many experiences, emotions, and customs of Ionia that she has never experienced before. Mortals, it seems, are equally enchanted by her - something she often exploits, draining their spirits while inflicting them with beautiful memories, wistful visions, and heart-wrenching dreams.
She is intoxicated by memories that are not hers, and she feels refreshed by ending the lives of others, but she also feels the sadness and pain she has brought to her victims. The flashbacks of her memories make her experience brief and wonderful heartbreaks and joys that make her unable to stop. This feeling makes her feel at a loss, but every time she tries to stay away from humans, she feels her power begin to dissipate, so she can't help but repeat the same mistakes again and again...
Gradually, she began to see herself as mortals did: she was a monster.
Until that day, an artist met her, when she was leaning over a man, sucking his life. If it were someone else, he would have fled in panic, but he did not, and was willing to sacrifice his life in exchange for her moment of love. For the first time in his life, Ahri let himself sink into the vortex of love and being loved.
The two had a sweet and warm time together, with Ahri only seeking her lover's spirit to learn how to control her appetite. She was truly happy... until she lost control and completely drained her lover.
Ahri fell into deep despair, mourning the first and only person she had ever truly loved. The first and only person who had ever truly loved her. She left human society and wanted only to trace her origins in the hope of controlling her own power.
She held the twin gems tightly in her hands and set out on a journey to find her kind. By chance, she left Ionia and went to Bilgewater. Finally, on the beach of Shadow Isles, she finally found out her ancestors - the Vishanin tribe. This Vastaya tribe once brought innovation and magic to the world, but was eventually exterminated by the Curse of the Ruined.
These memories inspired Ahri to set out again, to travel around the world to visit other relics left by Weishaning. She hoped to inherit the treasures of her ancestors and bring beauty to the world. She no longer carried the burden of regret, and she hoped to let go of those stolen memories and create new memories of her own.

Ali's story brings new clues to the audience.
It's like a decryption game.
With so much preparation, Shadow Island has become the biggest mystery.
Many clues all point to it.
All movie fans also know that Shadow Islands is the next big movie.
Game players are even more excited because every video update means the arrival of a major version.
However, before heading to the Shadow Island, they still need to make some preparations.
Let’s go to the harbor to rest first. The camera on the big screen brings the audience’s attention to the island where the black fog is about to spread. This is Bilgewater.
The person who best represents this port city that can devour people is undoubtedly Captain Gangplank.
The wily, ruthless self-proclaimed Bandit King, Gangplank rules Bilgewater with intimidation, violence, and machinations. He leaves death and ruin in his wake, and is so infamous that even the most seasoned of fleets are thrown into disarray when his black sails break the surface of the ocean. Gangplank rose to prominence by robbing merchant ships on the trade routes of the Twelve Seas, and has many foes to his name. In Ionia, he sacked the Temple of the Serpent Knife, incurring the wrath of the murderous Cult of the Shadow. And it is said that the Noxian Grand Admiral himself vowed to see Gangplank torn to pieces for stealing the Leviathan, Swain's ship and the pride of the Noxian navy.
Although Gangplank is a thorn in the side of many people, they have sent assassins, bounty hunters and even armed fleets, but they have been unable to bring him to justice. His cruel pleasure is to watch the bounty on his head continue to rise. Every time he returns to Bilgewater with a full bounty, he will pin his latest wanted poster on the Bilgewater bounty notice board for everyone to see.
Recently, Gangplank was tricked by bounty hunter Miss Fortune. His pirate ship was destroyed in front of the entire city of Bilgewater, his crew was killed, and his myth of invincibility was shattered. Now, the various gangs in Bilgewater see that Gangplank is doomed, and they have risen up to seize control of the port city in the chaos.
Although Gangplank was seriously injured in the explosion, he survived. His body was covered with scars and one of his arms was amputated. But he installed an iron prosthesis and was determined to rebuild his prestige. Gangplank vowed to take back everything he once had and ruthlessly punish all those who offended him.
……
Miss Fortune, Sarah Fortune.
All the audience did not expect that Captain Ocean Disaster, who had such a strong aura, only appeared briefly in the camera.
Everyone thought he would be the protagonist of this film.
But unexpectedly, he only appeared in the narration at the beginning of the film, and all his prestige was used to benefit the new owner of Bilgewater.
That's right, when Yasuo and Ahri arrived in Bilgewater, the place had already changed its owner.
Gangplank is the representative of Bilgewater, chaos, brutality, and all the qualities that a pirate leader possesses.
Unfortunately, he lost to Sarah and became a defeated character in a revenge story.
And Miss Fortune is naturally the protagonist of this revenge story.
Known for her beauty but also for her ruthlessness, Sarah is a Bilgewater captain who has carved out a reputation as a force to be reckoned with among the port town's hardened criminal gangs.
When she was a child, she witnessed the pirate king Gangplank murder his own family.
Years later she exacted her revenge in a brutal way by blowing him and his flagship to pieces.
Anyone who underestimates her will find themselves up against a very deceptive and cunning opponent, and may have to deal with a bullet or two in the stomach.
