Chapter 216: Heroes gather and head to Shadow Island

So Gangplank reached a cooperation with Thresh, and the things he got were precisely for the purpose of awakening Foyeg.

But how could Thresh be so kind? Gangplank was just a pawn used by him.

At this time, the perspective shifted to the other side, because another group of people came to Bilgewater by boat, they were Yasuo and Ahri.

Ahri came to Bilgewater to find out her life experience, while Yasuo left Ionia after the Spirit Blossom.

After the two men arrived in Bilgewater for a preliminary exploration, night fell and they went to the inn together, an ambiguous atmosphere emanating from them.

Yasuo asked the innkeeper for two rooms, but Ahri next to him said, "One room is fine."

A single man and a single woman were in the same room. I thought something was going to happen between Yasuo and Riven, but unexpectedly, Ahri got there first.

However, the development of the story deviated from everyone's expectations and did not develop into a romantic plot.

Yasuo, being an upright man, sat on the floor and fell asleep with his sword in his arms, but Ahri felt a hunger, which was her desire to devour human souls. This was why she came to Bilgewater.

When Yasuo woke up again, Ahri had disappeared, leaving only a note on the table: Don't follow me.

"Damn it, did I say something wrong?"

Yasuo's biggest regret was that he had not protected the elder well, so he ignored the note left by Ahri and set out to find Ahri.

……

Grey Harbor was where Miss Fortune led her men to resist the black fog during the last Haunting.

In the parlance of the people of Bilgewater, this is a cursed area, a place where you can encounter the Black Mist, even if you are not in the Shadow Isles.

Just as Braon and Illaoi were on their way to Grey Harbor, they encountered the Black Mist Evil Spirits lurking there. Just as the two were fighting against a large number of evil spirits, suddenly a sound of wind was heard.

"Hazard!"

Yasuo appeared with a sword in hand. That's right, he hadn't found Ahri yet, but he ran into Braum and Illaoi in the Grey Harbor.

So the three of them fought side by side and worked together to repel these black fog evil spirits.

After the three of them talked, everyone found that although their purposes were different, Braum and Illaoi were investigating the Black Mist incident, and Yasuo was looking for Ahri, but their destinations were the same, so Yasuo also joined the team.

With the addition of Yasuo, the team's investigation efficiency improved, and soon they found three suspicious persons. The leader among them was the henchman who appeared when Gangplank was introduced before and was looking for the holy relic for him.

After being questioned by Yasuo and his two companions, the henchman became a little annoyed because not long ago, a woman had knocked down several of his crew members.

Yasuo heard it and thought, "Fox woman? Isn't that the missing Ahri?"

Ahri disappeared after hearing the news that Gangplank was heading to the Shadow Isles with the Sunstone.

There is no doubt that Yasuo has confirmed that Ahri must have also gone to the Shadow Isles.

He immediately wanted to take a boat to Shadow Island, but Gangplank's brothers disagreed. The vixen woman had disappeared mysteriously, and they were worried about where to find someone to take revenge.

At this time, they saw Yasuo, who was acquainted with Ahri, so they rushed forward, but were easily killed by Yasuo.

Seeing Yasuo who was anxious and even wanted to kill, Illaoi persuaded him: "The little girl might be in the temple ahead." This temple in the Grey Harbor was the battlefield of the last battle between Bilgewater and the Black Mist. Illaoi summoned the goddess here and repelled the people in the Black Mist.

But when the group arrived at the temple, they did not find Ahri here, and Illaoi also made a bad discovery.

That is, the "Heart of the Temple" in the temple is missing. Perhaps this is the reason why black fog has frequently appeared in various places in Bilgewater recently!
In order to investigate further, Illaoi took Braum and Yasuo into the depths of the temple.

After entering the temple tomb, the three of them overcame all obstacles and solved various mechanisms, and finally found a monster lurking in the deepest part of the tomb.

But this is not the goddess Nagakabouros believed by the Baru people, but a false god, Shatar.

Illaoi was furious. This was the temple of the goddess, and yet it was occupied by such a monster.

However, with the combined efforts of the three, even the monster known as the false god was defeated by them.

Just after they killed this monster, the shadow of the ancestor Ornn appeared in the fountain nearby.

"Priestess, you bring honor to your people."

Following the old voice, they learned the truth of the matter from the mouth of this ancient shadow.

That false god was not the reason why the sacred objects in the temple disappeared. The one who actually disturbed the slumber of the ancestors and created chaos was a man.

As he spoke, the shadow of a man appeared in the spring again, and when he saw this shadow, Illaoi suddenly realized!
This phantom is Planck!
It turned out that he was the one who stole the heart of the temple, which gave the false god monster the opportunity to enter the temple.

Without the suppression of the Heart of the Temple, the evil spirits in the black fog will frequently appear in Bilgewater.

The shadow of the ancestor also gave a prophecy. Behind all the events, an extremely terrifying Haunting Night is about to come. I hope the priestess can be prepared to protect the people of Bilgewater.

Illaoi's face looked grim. Gangplank was almost blown to death by Miss Fortune's design, and now he had caused such a big mess. It seemed that he was going to attack Bilgewater with the Black Mist.

Yasuo on the other side also realized that this port city was facing a crisis, and the source was Shadow Isles. Ahri was not in the temple, so she must have gone to Shadow Isles.

They reached an agreement again, Illaoi went to Shadow Isles to deal with Gangplank, while Yasuo went to Shadow Isles to find Ahri, and they were on the same path again.

After resolving the Gray Harbor incident, they returned to the Dire Miserable Manor together and explained everything about the investigation to Sarah.

Only then did Sarah realize that Planck actually survived the explosion!
This is the enemy she must kill, and also the hidden danger of Bilgewater.

“If what you say is true, the Harrowing will come again, and Gangplank is the culprit... then I must protect Bilgewater.”

Sarah made her choice. She decided to follow everyone to the Shadow Isles to eliminate the scourge that was Gangplank.

With Miss Fortune joining us, sailing to the Shadow Isles is no problem at all.

As the current king of Bilgewater, the thing he has the most is good ships.

A huge and magnificent ship appeared in front of everyone. Braum looked at the big ship and thought of the small sailboat he sailed from Freljord to here. Compared with this ship, it was like a flag stuck on a small wooden board.

So everyone boarded the ship and began a voyage.
