Chapter 234 Piltover Myrdalda Family
“Piltwov?”
Hearing Swain’s words, Huo Jixing’s mind was moved and he reached out to catch the throw. Letterhead.
The fire paint had already melted, so he took out the parchment and carefully read the written information recorded on it.
"Myrdalda family?"
Huo Jixing frowned when he saw the special name mentioned on the parchment.
Then the intelligence information of the Myrdalda family immediately appeared in his mind.
With extensive trade cooperation and thinking ahead of the times, Piltover has become the cultural center of Valoran, earning the title "City of Progress".
Although Piltover has a relatively complete parliamentary system and many merchant families that control different trade channels.
But its unique economy and politics gave birth to a small group of rulers (powerful oligarchs) who control everything.
They are completely above Parliament and the law.
The Myrdalda family, with its invention patents and huge trade wealth, has become the most powerful family in Piltover and one of the powerful oligarchs.
Huo Jixing put away the letter and doubts arose in his heart.
The Myrdalda family in Piltover sent a message thousands of miles to seek help from the Noxus Empire?
Does it have any connection with the Noxus Empire?
Maybe it was the doubts rising in Huo Jixing's heart when he saw it.
Swain leaned back, leaning against the back of his chair, looking at the colorful flags hanging on both sides of the obsidian throne.
"The Myrdalda family is a warlord noble of the empire. In order to control the east-west sea lanes of Valoran, they sent their descendants to Piltover."
"After After a hundred years of development, the Myrdalda family of Piltover has grown up and provided a lot of wealth to the empire."
"This time they encountered a very difficult problem and had to secretly do so. Seek help from the Empire ”
Swain turned his eyes, looked at Huo Jixing below, and continued to speak.
"Your secret mission is to go to the Midarda family to help them solve their problems."
"Okay, when will we set off?" Huo Jixing nodded lightly, The voice replied.
Since the Myrdalda family is an extension of the empire’s interests, the empire should solve their problems for them.
“Don’t underestimate Piltover’s power.” Swain stood up, left the marble table, and walked to the left wall of the audience hall.
The bright yellow candlelight fell, reflecting a detailed map of the Valoran continent.
The area painted red represents the vast territory of the Noxus Empire.
During the reign of Brown Darkwill, the Noxus Empire fought in all directions and occupied almost all areas, but the areas of Piltover and Zaun were safe.
This is not only because Piltover and Zaun control the east-west sea lanes of Valoran, the Noxus Empire needs them to help transport supplies to various battlefields.
There is also the strength possessed by Piltover and Zaun. Their alchemy technology path bursts out with power that is not inferior to that of the craft path.
"Go to Piltover this time and pay attention to the Yodel Academy of Science and Progress. There is news that Heimerdinger is researching a special weapon."
Swain's eyes fell on Pilt The regions of Worf and Zaun, staring down the narrow sea lanes.
"The Philos family is also worth noting."
"The Philos family?" Huo Jixing stood behind Swain, looking up at the huge map in front of him.
"Qinggang Shadow Camille is the chief secret agent of the Feros family. Many soldiers of the Reese Guard Corps were assassinated by her." Swain turned around and said in a solemn voice.
"And her power is extraordinary. She has the power of life and death in secret operations."
Huo Jixing's eyes narrowed and he nodded slowly.
Since Swain specifically warned her, it means that Camille is much more difficult to deal with than imagined.
"Finally, the empire needs you to sneak into Zaun and meet a big guy."
Swain took out a blood-colored token from his arms, threw it to Huo Jixing, and instructed.
"He has something that the Trifali Council wants."
"As for the specific information about this secret mission, a dedicated person will give it to you after you arrive in Piltover."
< br>Swain paused and said in a deep voice: "Without further ado, let's set off tomorrow."
"Copy that."
Huo Jixing took the token and put it After falling into his arms, he turned around and left the palace.
The setting sun shines on the triumphal steps in front of the palace, dyeing every stone slab a warm golden color.
As the sky darkens, this warmth gradually disappears, replaced by a deep and cold night.
Huo Jixing had just left the palace and walked down the solemn triumphal steps with a steady pace.
As if he noticed something, his eyes flickered in the night, looking behind him vaguely, ignoring the darkness and seeing everything.
"Is there someone specifically guarding it?" Huo Jixing thought secretly.
Then he walked quickly, blending into the surrounding darkness and disappearing.
Back at his residence, Huo Jixing opened the door.
The bright yellow light illuminated the room, and he saw Heini waiting for him, holding the sleeping snow-white Poro in his arms.
When Heini saw Huo Jixing coming back, a reassuring smile appeared on his face, he reached out and gently stroked Poro's snow-white hair, and walked towards the restaurant.
Inside is a dinner that has been prepared long ago, as well as a pot of strong aromatic liquor.
Huo Jixing looked at everything in front of him with soft eyes, and a touch of warmth emerged in his heart.
No matter how unpredictable the outside world is, there is always peace that belongs to him.
After dinner, Huo Jixing took a swig of strong wine and allowed the burning sensation to permeate his body.
“There is a secret mission, I will leave soon.”
Although Swain gave him the time tomorrow, he thought of his previous worries and prepared to leave Knok silently. The capital of Sars.
"Ah, then I will prepare some clothes for you."
Haini hurriedly put down the dinner plate in his hand and walked towards Huo Jixing's room.
"No, I don't need many things." Huo Jixing shook his head gently.
Piltover is the trade center of the Valoran continent, and the empire has already arranged to infiltrate the Ryser Guard Secret.
Huo Jixing got up and went to his room, took out the Statik electric blade with a black scabbard, and hung it on his waist.
In addition, he also brought a silver flask that had been prepared, filled with strong liquor.
Oh, he also picked up the sleeping snow-white Poro, ignored the angry eyes, and stuffed it into his arms.
"Go to bed early."
Huo Jixing came to the living room, rubbed Heini's head, spoke softly, and closed the door.
Da da! Ta-ta!
Light footsteps echoed in the silent night air.
Huo Jixing was walking in the narrow streets. In the dim environment, his figure was looming, blending into the surrounding shadows and making it difficult to detect.
"Sure enough, someone has been staring at me."
A red golden light appeared in his eyes. Huo Jixing looked around and saw several bloody clouds rising up, surrounding him. residence.
From the moment he left the palace, he felt that someone was secretly watching him and paying attention to his whereabouts.
Although I had successfully gotten rid of them before, when I returned to my residence, the feeling of spying came over me again.
This convinced Huo Jixing that no matter whether it was a palace or a residence, there were secret forces specially arranging people to guard him and monitor his every move.
The night gradually deepens and the moonlight becomes hazy.
Huo Jixing kept walking and continued walking, preparing to go to the fortress outside the capital. He intended to use Noxtra to leave the capital and go to Chuxido, the nearest port city to Piltover.
This is the convenience of portals.
Noxtra has risen on every road leading to a city in the Noxian Empire.
And the capital’s [Noxtora] can lead to every city in the empire.
Chushido is located in the southeast corner of the empire, on a promontory with Piltover and Zaun.
At the port, you can see the hazy black shadow of Sun Gate in the distance.
"Huh?"
Huo Jixing passed the city gate corridor and walked on the wide and flat straight road with a cold expression.
“The ghost lingers!”
Within his field of vision, he once again saw the familiar blood-colored cloud hidden in the dark corner.
The night is as dark as ink, deep and thick, covering the bright moonlight in the sky, as if the world has fallen into silence.
"The target is about to appear, please report information at any time."
In the dark corner, a figure wearing a blood-colored robe spoke softly, with a red light flashing in his hand, as if he was communicating with others.
Then he looked at the city gate in the distance with burning eyes, quietly waiting for the target to appear.
Behind him, there were two similarly dressed figures lurking, with bloody marks engraved on the young faces, and their eyes filled with scarlet color.
The aura of the two people is almost the same as that of the figure in the blood-colored robe in front, but they are younger and fanatical in comparison.
Scarlet Apprentice!
Members of the Crimson Order, descendants of nobles dedicated to blood magic itself.
A loyal believer in the Scarlet Reaper Vladimir, longing for power and immortality.
“Here we come.”
The Scarlet Awakener looked at the open city gate, his blood-colored eyes flashing as he saw Huo Jixing walking out.
Immediately afterwards, the Scarlet Awakener saw Huo Jixing looking here as if he had noticed something.
"Did you discover us?"
Before he could react, Huo Jixing disappeared from sight without any trace
"Where are you going?"
The Scarlet Awakener looked solemn, keenly feeling the deadly danger emerging in the surrounding air.
Then he immediately signaled the two scarlet apprentices behind him to be more vigilant and carefully observe the movements around them.
"Huh?"
The Scarlet Awakener noticed that there was no movement behind them, and the authorities turned around, preparing to scold their subordinates.
These apprentices who have just joined the Scarlet Secret Society always think that their noble status is superior to others.
But they don’t know how the status of everyone who joins the Scarlet Secret Society is so much lower than them.
The desire for immortality is a desire that everyone who has enjoyed power and wealth cannot give up.
"You guys."
The Scarlet Awakener suppressed the anger in his heart and turned his head. Just as he was about to scold him, he saw a pair of cold eyes looking down at him.
At his feet were two scarlet apprentices.
At this moment, they had fallen silently into a pool of blood, and the energy of life had disappeared without a trace.
The Scarlet Awakener's pupils shrank, and the fatal danger struck. He immediately jumped up and fled towards the city gate.
He knew in his heart that only by reaching the city gate could he possibly save his life.
"Blood magic?"
Huo Jixing raised his eyebrows and saw the blood ripples gently fluttering in the night wind, like a pool of still blood surging in the dark night.
“Is Vladimir targeting me again?”
He whispered softly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, and looked at the scarlet awakened one in the distance, escaping into the darkness.
The Scarlet Awakeners who escaped could not escape their destined fate.
The surging blood ripples unknowingly split into countless fragments in an instant.
Before they hit the ground, a flash of red-gold fireworks ignited, melting them into ashes and dissipating.
Immortal Fortress, a towering noble castle.
In a luxurious hall, the soft lights reflected the exquisite patterns on the walls
Vladimir sat at the head of the table, with a glass wine glass filled with blood-colored liquid in front of him.
The bloody liquid inside is as bright as blood under the light.
He gently raised the wine glass and carefully observed the liquid inside, a deep light flashed in his blood-colored eyes.
"It tastes good." Vladimir took a sip of the blood-colored liquid in the wine glass and praised softly.
"The results of Piltover's experiments are becoming more and more amazing and fascinating."
Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta!
Suddenly, rapid footsteps sounded, destroying the peaceful atmosphere in the hall.
I saw a Noxian noble in red robes walking quickly with a pale expression. It was obvious that something important had happened.
“Your Majesty the Great Vladimir!”
The Noxian noble fell to his knees respectfully, with a hint of fanaticism and awe in his voice.
"The target has disappeared, and we can't find any trace for the time being."
"Disappeared?"
Vladimir frowned slightly and drank the glass. of bloody liquid, looking sharply at the Noxian nobles kneeling on the ground.
“He is indeed a gifted person from the Star Spirit. During the time he left, his strength has grown a lot.”
He chuckled softly, put down the wine glass in his hand, stood up and walked in front of the Noxian noble. The gorgeous robes shone strangely in the light.
“Our people have been following him secretly, but suddenly they lost track of him, and at the same time the people following him also completely disappeared.”
The Noxian nobles saw Vladimir's feet buried his head deep in the carpet, with inexplicable fear in his tone.
“We suspect that he may have some mysterious power that can evade our tracking.”
“A very reasonable speculation!”
Vladimir nodded slowly, stretched out his right hand, pointed at the Noxian noble, and a bloody glow appeared.
“But I don’t blame you for not being able to find him.”
“What I blame you for is, why didn’t you pay attention to your behind and lure outsiders over?”
Buzz! Buzz!
The bloody glow emerged and fell slowly.
The Noxian noble's originally pale face looked even more bloodless under the bloody light.
His eyes widened in horror, as if he wanted to shout, but found that he couldn't even make a sound.
I could only watch as my body gradually shriveled up in the bloody light.
But in a blink of an eye.
The Noxian noble's skin began to become shriveled and tight, and his body gradually shrank until he finally turned into a mummy.
After finishing everything in front of him, Vladimir looked at the window edge and saw a black crow with its wings folded, watching him quietly with red eyes.
Eating crows like crazy!
