The Glory of Noxus

Chapter 168 Piltover’s huge sea lock

Blood Cliff Port area.

After the Scarlet Secret Society incident, this place has once again returned to prosperity and is a busy and orderly place.

The air is thick with the stench of laborers' sweat, the body odor of Freljord clan warriors, and the perfume of Piltover merchants.

Huo Jixing disguised himself as a homeless man and appeared at the dock.

This time, a secret mission was carried out in order to hide the traces and avoid the eyes and ears of Black Rose.

He did not choose to pass through [Noxtra], reach the border of the empire, and sneak into the Kingdom of Demacia.

Instead, he was preparing to leave the Noxus Empire by ship.

The ship Huo Jixing chose was also particular. It was not the Imperial Chamber of Commerce or the Piltover Chamber of Commerce.

It is a merchant ship from the Freljord Frostport.

While trading items, the ships of the Chamber of Commerce will also take some travel orders, mostly for individuals, because they are also afraid of provoking pirate groups.

dong dong!dong dong!
The dull bell rang.

Huo Jixing looked at the blue and white ship in front of him that was ready to set off, like a huge pontoon floating on the sea.

The ship's chimney emits light smoke, intertwined with the white clouds in the sky.

Although most of the ships in the port area are sailing ships, many have begun to use steam engines as power.

This is the work of the Piltover inventors.

Huo Jixing picked up the luggage in his hand, listened to the noise in his ears, walked up the gangway, and started to board the ship.

At the end of the gangway, there was an armored Freljord clan warrior checking tickets with a stern look on his face.

Huo Jixing handed over the ticket in his hand, passed the Freljord clan warriors, and boarded the ship.

On the deck of the ship, Huo Jixing stood quietly, looking at the Blood Cliff Port in front of him.

He left in secret, so Jalal was still in the dark.

Smelling the smell of sea salt, Huo Jixing took a deep breath. This boat trip was just the beginning. No one could tell the future.

But he is willing to face it and challenge it.

But while waiting to leave, Huo Jixing unexpectedly saw Kalida.

The gray-haired young woman holding a baby boy successfully boarded the ship after checking her ticket and entered the ship with her luggage.

Huo Jixing's eyes flickered and he did not go over to say hello.

After all, he left in disguise and was unlikely to cause trouble.

But meeting Kalida was somewhat unexpected.

With the endorsement of Huo Jixing and Jalal, Kalida has been safely removed from the Scarlet Secret Society incident.

But you are leaving now, are you thinking about anything?

"Perhaps the recent cessation of purges has made her feel quite safe."

Huo Jixing thought of the bloody baptism some time ago. Although it suppressed the chaos inside the blood cliff, it also had some impact.

Thinking about it this way, it is really inconvenient for a young woman to bring a child.

"It's his brother Kawoodi." Huo Jixing touched his chin.

Even after the Blood Cliff incident, no trace of Kawoodi could be found.

As well as some hiding spots of the Scarlet Secret Society, there is no relevant information.

It seems that he has completely disappeared and has never been to Blood Cliff.

"What am I thinking about now?" Huo Jixing shrugged his shoulders and shook his head slightly.

He was about to leave the Noxian Empire, and these matters were left to Jalal.

dong dong!dong dong!
The dull bell rang again.

The blue-white ship slowly left the port and entered the boundless sea of ​​guardians.

Huo Jixing took one last look at the blood cliff and entered the ship.

Sea of ​​Watchers.

The huge blue and white ship moved slowly on the sea, rising and falling with the waves.

Huo Jixing opened his eyes, and the red-gold light disappeared in his pupils.

He looked at the glazed windows in the room and saw the endless blue sea, and there were some ripples in his heart.

In the beginning, Huo Jixing would often watch the sea scenery.

Because he rarely saw the sea in his previous life, he had some expectations.Especially when the ship rides the wind and waves, and sees the undulating waves, he will feel inexplicable pride in his heart.

The sea view at night is also particularly moving.

The dark sea surface and the gloomy sky are connected together. Occasionally, the stars will fall down, giving off a colorful brilliance, which is fascinating.

However, time has passed.

Sailing life can also start to get boring.

Repeating the same actions and scenery every day can feel extremely monotonous.

Life on board is also full of limitations and constraints.

Huo Jixing was unable to practice his skills, so he could only enter [Inside View of the Body] every day and meditate deeply.

"Um!?"

The sound of footsteps coming from above Huo Jixing's room made his heart move.

"Did we encounter a ship again?"

When sailing alone on the sea, you are most afraid of encountering strange ships.

Because you don't know whether you are facing a merchant ship or a pirate ship.

But Huo Jixing thought of those Freljord clan warriors who were tall and strong and had cold faces.

Even if you encounter a pirate ship, the other party will instantly transform into a merchant ship.

After about a cup of tea.

Through the window of the room, Huo Jixing saw the ships approaching from the sea level in the distance. The huge hulls were not far behind the merchant ships in Ningshuang Port.

It also looks like a steam engine is used as power, and the speed is not slow.

But soon, the other party seemed to see the Freljord clan warriors waiting on the deck, quickly turned around and left parallel.

"Tsk tsk!"

Huo Jixing looked boredly at the huge ship that was getting further away, and his excitement and interest faded away.

For the remainder of the voyage, life continued to be monotonous.

Huo Jixing also spent most of his time in his room, meditating deeply.

"Piltover?"

After Huo Jixing finished his breakfast, a large portion of grilled fish and white bread, he received chatting news from the chef.

The Frost Harbor ship under his feet will dock in Piltover for two days to purchase supplies and trade items.

Then Huo Jixing smiled at the chef, dropped the coins in his hand, and returned to the room.

The ship provides ordinary food for ordinary passengers.

But he couldn't eat enough free food, so he had to buy it alone.

After demonstrating his strength, Huo Jixing successfully won the captain's respect.

Also get the right to enjoy food.

"That's probably why Kalida took the boat."

Huo Jixing closed the door and thought in his heart.

He had boarded the ship earlier and only knew that the ship would return to Ningshuang Port, but he did not know much about the places where it would dock along the way.

But yes, for such a long voyage, you will definitely need to purchase supplies.

In this way, Huo Jixing waited to enter Piltover with some expectation.

After five days.

The blue and white ships sailing on the sea began to slow down, and many different ships began to appear around them.

Huo Jixing looked at the scene outside through the window.

Then he saw a sea gate standing on the horizon in the distance.

From a distance, the towering and majestic sea gate seems to be a huge life form, never stopping to handle ships.

This transportation hub connecting the two sea areas is unimaginably busy.

As the distance approached, both sides of the sea lock were lined up with ships waiting to pass.

They come in all sizes and shapes, including cargo ships, passenger ships, and fishing boats.

Every ship is waiting silently to pass through the sea lock.
