Chapter 180 Mission Announcement
Chapter 180 Mission Announcement
Just then, Yixiao slowly walked out of the casino.
Meanwhile, Luo Tian was heading towards the casino, and the two met unexpectedly.
Yi Xiao held the cane-sword he used to probe the way. Since he couldn't see the road ahead, the cane-sword just happened to lightly touch Luo Tian when he stretched it forward.
"Oh dear, I'm so sorry!"
Yi Xiao quickly said, while explaining.
"I am blind. I am so sorry to have bumped into you by accident."
Luo Tian, on the other hand, was very magnanimous and responded with a smile.
"It's alright, don't worry about it. I noticed you're all alone here. Have you ever considered joining a faction?"
Upon hearing this, Yi Xiao silently put away his staff and sword, and then responded with a sound of agreement.
"Oh..." He then continued, "Does Your Excellency mean to invite me? Unfortunately, I am just a blind man who likes to gamble, and I'm afraid I won't be of any real help to Your Excellency."
However, before Yi Xiao could finish speaking, Luo Tian interrupted her.
"Don't jump to conclusions yet. Let's talk this over slowly. If you're not in a hurry, how about we find a place together, and I'll treat you to a drink? That way, we can have a more in-depth conversation."
Yi Xiao thought to herself that she didn't really have anything urgent to deal with at the moment, so she readily agreed to Luo Tian's suggestion.
"Alright, then I'll follow your arrangements."
Yi Xiao also wanted to see what the man in front of her was planning.
With a smile on his face, Luo Tian led Yi Xiao into a bustling bar.
Luo Tian summoned Mr. Tanaka and instructed him to arrange a quiet and comfortable room, while also ordering that all kinds of fine wines be brought up.
Before long, the two were sitting in a beautifully decorated room, and the drinks they needed were delivered on time.
Mr. Tanaka said politely.
"Then I won't disturb you two any longer."
After saying that, he turned around and left quietly through the door.
Luo Tian casually picked up a full glass of fine wine and gracefully handed it to Yi Xiao.
With a smile, she accepted the wine glass, took a small sip, and said softly.
"It seems your status here is quite extraordinary."
Luo Tian raised an eyebrow and asked in return with great interest.
"Oh? How do you know?"
She smiled and chuckled softly, explaining.
"That Mr. Tanaka was a guard here, and also a powerful individual with the ability to pierce through objects. It's remarkable that someone as formidable as him treated you with such respect."
"Although I am blind, fortunately my hearing is more acute than that of ordinary people, and I overheard your conversation by chance. Even the Golden Emperor respects you greatly, so your status must be extraordinary."
"Plus, this wine is something that ordinary people who come here can't possibly buy."
After hearing what Yi Xiao said, Luo Tian did not rush to refute or explain anything. He simply picked up his wine glass as if nothing had happened, took a sip of the fine wine in the glass, and then slowly put the glass down, staring intently ahead with a deep gaze, as if he was thinking about something.
For a moment, the entire room fell into a subtle silence.
Luo Tian spoke first.
"So, back to the original question, would you be willing to join me?"
Although Yi Xiao is blind, his extraordinary perception is enough to make up for this deficiency.
With his keen intuition, he can easily discern a person's inner goodwill or malice.
However, when he faced the mysterious figure named Luo Tian, all his senses seemed to fail him, as if he had fallen into an endless void.
Finally, Yixiao broke the silence and slowly asked.
Why did you choose a blind person like me?
Luo Tian answered without hesitation.
"Because I know your great strength, and more importantly, I know you are a kind-hearted person. Now, I desperately need your help."
Upon hearing this, Yi Xiao couldn't help but feel puzzled and let out a soft sound.
"Oh?"
Seeing this, Luo Tian continued to press for answers.
So, what are your thoughts on the world as it is today?
For a moment, Yixiao fell into deep thought and did not answer immediately.
Seeing this, Luo Tian poured Yi Xiao a full glass of wine and said with emotion.
"The world has become distorted and utterly corrupt. The World Government is incompetent and utterly inactive; the Navy has degenerated into a lackey of the powerful, aiding and abetting evil; and the pirates are becoming increasingly rampant and lawless. Therefore, I sincerely invite you to join me and work together to change this chaotic world."
Since emerging from seclusion, Luo Tian has had a strange feeling about the system's main quest. He feels that it's not as simple as it seems. Becoming the Pirate King in the system doesn't mean the literal meaning, nor does it mean finding One Piece.
"Your insight is indeed brilliant. In that case, what are your plans for action?"
Yixiao asked with great interest.
Luo Tian's gaze was firm, and he answered resolutely.
"My goal is to overthrow this corrupt world government, ascend to the pinnacle of power, become the supreme ruler of this world, and personally build a completely new order!"
"Oh? That's quite ambitious! But I wonder what exactly this new order you're talking about is?"
Yi Xiao raised an eyebrow, filled with curiosity and anticipation for the so-called new order that Luo Tian spoke of.
Luo Tian took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
"What I want to build is a new world where everyone is truly equal, without oppression and exploitation. There, everyone can gain the respect and opportunities they deserve through their own efforts and talents, no longer bound by birth, wealth or power."
Upon hearing this, Yi Xiao burst into laughter. He picked up his wine glass, downed the wine in one gulp, and then said loudly.
"Haha, what lofty ambitions! In that case, I really want to see for myself what the ideal new world you speak of will be like."
After saying that, he burst into another hearty laugh.
Upon hearing Yi Xiao's words, Luo Tian understood immediately—this forthright and unrestrained man had agreed to join his camp.
At the same time, the system's voice rang in Luo Tian's mind.
"Ding~"
"The system has detected that the host's wishes have met the system's task requirements. The system will now announce the details of the main quest."
