LOL: Summoner of Goddess Janna

"Join the Leader?" Of course Sarah knew that joining the Leader meant losing her autonomy and becoming a vassal of others.

Levi wants to annex her pirate group.

If someone else made such a domineering proposal to her, she would definitely spit in disdain and raise her guns to let the other person know what a "laughing girl" is.

But when Levi said this, Sarah hesitated.

"She was recalling her experiences in the Zaunite community."

"Oh...it turns out that she has already met Wei, Lena and Caitlin. Their performance seems to have given Miss Sarah a very good impression of the leader."

Seraphine calmly squeezed Levi's hand and provided him with a "real-time translation" of the negotiations:

"It turns out that in addition to revenge, Miss Sarah also has her own ideals."

"She wants to end Gangplank's brutal rule and restore order to the chaotic Bilgewater - this ideal seems to coincide with what our leaders are pursuing."

"But...she's still hesitating."

Hesitation is normal. Sarah’s understanding of the Leader was too shallow. Even if she had a good impression, she wouldn’t be able to join right away.

"You can think about it for a while." Levi added at the right time: "We can cooperate for a while and get to know each other better. If you are still not willing to join the Leader, we will not force you."

"During this period, you can try to learn our theory." He also jokingly said, "It doesn't cost any money, and it won't hurt to take a look, right?"

Sarah thought carefully for a moment and felt that this was good.

Then she asked, "So how do we work together? What does Windleader need from me and my crew for you?"

"Leader is preparing to build his own fleet, and I need you to train sailing talents for me." Levi said.

"That's it." Sarah also figured it out.

Wind Leader needed a fleet that could deal with Planck, so he specially recruited her as a navigation instructor, who had rich experience in naval battles and had a blood feud with Planck.

The two have the same goals and there is indeed a basis for cooperation.

Cooperate first. If the leader can make her happy, then it is not impossible to join the other party.

So Sarah readily agreed and asked: "So how is your fleet planning now? How many ships do you have?"

"Counting your siren number, one." Levi answered honestly.

Sarah: "..."

Good guy, this fleet lineup can compete with the Shurima Navy.

If she didn't have a Siren here, the Navy Commander of the Wind Leader would have to take a fishing boat to find Gangplank?

"Although we don't have a ship now, we will soon have one." Levi said calmly: "There are many alchemy barons in Zaun operating a smuggling fleet. For example, Baron Takeda Saito——"

"He even has a world-class shipyard under his name, which can produce steam ironclads whose performance is not inferior to that of the Noxus Navy."

There are ironclads in Runeterra, and the Leviathan was taken away by Gangplank. Even the ironclads can be snatched away by pirates, which shows how hard the Noxian navy is.

"Ironclad ship?" Sarah's heart moved.

Of course she likes steamships with thick armor and many turrets.

But she soon realized that Levi was trying to make a big deal out of things: "You don't even have a small sampan now, so you're thinking about an ironclad?"

"I really admire your imagination."

"Haha." Levi smiled optimistically: "I'm not only thinking about ironclads, I'm also thinking about aircraft carriers."

No kidding, there are already planes in Runeterra. That's what [Brave Bombardier Couch] drives.

Zaun already has shipbuilding technology. It is not difficult to build a first-generation aircraft carrier by laying a layer of wooden boards on an ironclad ship.

And Levi also told Victor the principles of radio he knew. After trying it, Victor confirmed that these principles are still valid in Runeterra. Therefore, radio communications and shipboard radar may become a reality in the future.

Therefore, according to Levi's expectation, the era of cannons and giant ships in Rune Land may soon be over.

Alchemy fuel-powered aircraft carrier, Hex-powered carrier-based aircraft, ship-based radar, and the accompanying Wind Leader borrowing the power of Janna to provide additional air ejection and vertical take-off and landing functions... The future Wind Leader fleet will definitely You can beat the Noxian navy, which is still playing with artillery and artillery bombardment.

"This..." Sarah couldn't understand.

A warship with plenty of space but not enough artillery was considered a heresy from the perspective of an experienced sailor like her.

"Let's be more pragmatic." She reminded: "You don't even have a ship now."

"But we have a goddess." Levi reassured her with just one sentence.

"Iron-armored ships will have them, and so will aircraft carriers."

That is true God. When walking with God, are you still afraid that your dreams may not come true?

Sarah thought about it seriously and finally decided to accept the pie drawn by Levi.

She made an agreement with Li Wei and agreed to accept a group of Wind Leader warriors aboard the Siren and learn navigation knowledge from her;

During this period, her pirate group worked as mercenaries for the Wind Leader Association, and the Wind Leader Association needed to pay high fees for her and her crew.

But correspondingly, Sarah and her crew must also serve as members of the Leader's armed forces, abide by the rules and disciplines of the Leader, and receive regular theoretical study and ideological education.

The cooperation was successfully negotiated.

But Levi still had questions: "Miss Sarah, do you know Naga Kapoulos?"

"Of course I understand." Sarah replied without hesitation.

Nagakapoulos, also known as the Snake Mother, the Great Sea Beast, or the Bearded Lady - it is said that she has a huge sea monster head with tentacles coiled around it, which looks like his "beard".

He is the god of the Python Islands, and he really exists.

Whether it is the efficacious "tithe" law or the powerful priests among the Baru people who can use their divine power to summon tentacles, they are the best proof of their existence.

How could the people of Bilgewater not know about Naga Kapoulos?

"Well, Sarah..." Levi asked again with great concern: "Do you know the specific teachings of Naga Kapoulos?"

"This..." This really stumped Sarah.

Bilgewater and Nashen can be said to be closely related, but they can also be said to have nothing to do with each other.

Because Naga Kapoulos is an aborigine of the Python Islands and the god of the Baru people.

In fact, Bilgewater is just a port and stronghold spontaneously opened by fishermen and pirates on the Anaconda Islands.

So the relationship between Bilgewater and the Python Islands, and the relationship between Bilgewater and the Baru people, to put it inappropriately... is a bit like the relationship between Macau and the Ming Dynasty.

The pirates did not dare to offend the indigenous Baru people. Although the Baru people despise these pirates, they also allow these outsiders to build ports and cities here.

But on both sides, you have to live with you, and I have to live with mine.

Although they are close at hand, both parties have their own lifestyles and their contacts are not close.

"Only the Baru believe in the god Na. There are several Baru temples in Bilgewater, but we never get close."

"But..." Sarah asked with some confusion: "President Levi, why are you interested in Na God's faith?"

"We are going to develop in Bilgewater, so of course we have to figure out the temper of the local gods."

"Don't forget, we also have a true god here."

When two gods meet, nothing good usually happens.

It was because of a conflict of faith that Janna was ordered by the Shurima Empire, which enshrined the giant god in the heavens, to destroy the temple and disband the religious order, and her faith inheritance was gradually cut off. As a result, he was reduced step by step from a demigod who could call for wind and rain and move mountains and seas to a "waste bird" who could only be used as an electric fan.

And according to Janna... her relationship with Nagakapoulos back then was actually not very good.

The meaning of Janna's name is "Guardian", and her divine power was also born to protect humans.

As long as someone prays to her, she will do whatever she can to help.

Nagakapoulos seems to hate Janna's original teachings and her benevolent behavior of unconditionally protecting humans.

"The Anaconda Islands are the territory of Naga Kapoulos."

"He doesn't like my intrusion into His kingdom of God. In fact, I had some unpleasant conflicts with Him because of several sea rescue operations for believers."

Blue Bird Janna also added in Li Wei's mind at this time.

Because Naga Kapoulos never wanted to live in peace with her, even Janna, who had lived for thousands of years, could not figure out the temper of this "old-timer" and could not understand his teachings.

Janna only knew that her original teachings of protecting humans seemed to conflict with the teachings of God Na.

Then this can be troublesome.

If the god of the Serpent Islands does not welcome Janna, then the leader of the wind will not have to deal with Gangplank, but a true god.

You must know that Naga Kapoulos is not an acquired god of faith, but a concept god born innately.

Even though his followers are limited to the Baru people and the spread of his faith is limited, his strength is actually not inferior to Janna in his heyday.

"So I want to find out what exactly Nagakapoulos's teachings are."

"Why doesn't He agree with the original teachings of the Goddess Janna?"

Levi asked Sarah very seriously.

Sarah thought for a long time, then said: "Actually, I don't know much about it either. Because the beliefs of these Baru people are too obscure and difficult to understand..."

"However, I also have a Baru crew member on my ship. I often hear him talking about the god Na Shena, and I can probably repeat some of it."

"In short, according to what the Baru people say:"

"Naga Kapoulos is not the god of sea beasts, but the god of life in the Anaconda Islands. She is also the storm of the deep sea, and she is the supreme movement itself!"

Movement, this is the teachings of Naga Kapoulos.

The concept was difficult to grasp, and Sarah didn’t quite understand it either.

She just repeated vaguely:

"The Baru people believe that Naga Kapoulos is the concept of 'movement' itself, and that the universe is always moving forward, and everything is in motion."

"Just like one cannot step into the same river twice. Everything exists and does not exist at the same time, because everything is flowing, constantly changing, constantly coming into being and disappearing."

“The only constant in the world is change itself—that is, Naga Kapoulos.”

"..."

Sarah was talking too much, but seeing Levi's thoughtful and focused look, she had no choice but to continue:

"In short, they believe that all things are constantly moving and changing and never stop."

"Dream and waking, life and death, day and night, are always the same thing. When the latter changes, it becomes the former, and when the former changes again, it becomes the latter."

"Everything exists and does not exist. Only with this opposition can the world exist. For example, harmony in music arises from the combination of high and low tones."

"So, God Na likes war."

Nagakapoulos is the god of life and movement, which sounds like a benevolent and good god.

But in fact, everyone in Bilgewater knows that Na is actually an "evil god" with an extremely cruel style.

Just like the voice of [Sea Beast Priest Illaoi]: "You have learned the true meaning, now fight, kill, and conquer."

"God Na believes that the world is dominated by struggle. War is the father of all and the king of all."

"Without struggle and opposition, the world would perish - stagnate or destroy. Only the unity of opposition and contradiction can produce harmony."

So Na God likes war.

Therefore, in the "future story" that Levi knows, a tycoon like Gangplank, who commits murder, arson, and commits many evil deeds, can pass the trial of the "God of Life" Nagakapoulos and become a believer recognized by the God Na.

"President Levi." Sarah said worriedly: "At present, it seems that your leader's behavior is in serious conflict with Nagakapoulos' teachings..."

"I don't think the leader will be welcomed by the Baru people."

But Levi was just silent for a while.

He was worried at first, then pensive, and then gradually revealed excitement and surprise.

"No, I understand - Nagakapoulos is pursuing 'movement', not pure war."

Nagakapoulos is the god of movement.

"Movement is contradiction, and contradiction is the unity of opposites. Contradiction exists in the development process of all things; contradiction exists at the beginning of the development process of all things -"

"We leaders also believe that the world is universally connected and the world is eternally developing."

Levi understood.

The teachings of Naga Kapoulos seem to be...

"Naive dialectics?"

No wonder Nagakapoulos didn't like the original Janna.

Because the original goddess Janna was just a mindless sea lifeguard, she wasn't "sporty" enough.

But now, the situation may be different.

The materialist dialectics in Janna's theory updated by Levi is largely consistent with the teachings of Naga Kapoulos, and the system is more complete and the theory is more scientific.

Na Shen likes struggle and confrontation and believes that struggle can bring progress.

So when it comes to struggle, who can be more active than the current leaders?

"Perhaps, we and the Baru people can also become friends."

Levi thought secretly in his heart.

But how to confirm this guess? Should we send leaders to the Baru Temple to discuss the Tao?

That's the territory of the heretic true god, so sending people there is risky.

"Seraphine, I'll copy it for you...uh, write a song called "Sailor" and a song called "Binx's Wine"..."

"In short, we must seize the time to release a batch of nautical-themed music albums and export them to Bilgewater at a discount - of course, each album will come with a copy of "A Brief Introduction to Janna's Thoughts."

I won’t go there yet, but try to pass on my thoughts first.

"Next, it depends on the reaction of the Baru people."
