Chapter 246 Qinggangying·Camille
Late at night, the stars are shining brightly.
The brightly lit Myrdalda Castle stands under the white moonlight.
Dark gray rocks form high walls, like ancient guardians that have experienced weather and frost, guarding the castle.
The dome is made of refined steel, and its cold metallic luster adds a modern touch to this ancient castle.
In the banquet hall of the main castle, the atmosphere was solemn and intense.
The soft red carpet covers the clean floor. Walking on it is almost silent, giving people a peaceful and comfortable feeling.
Bright magical lights dance on the walls, making the surrounding environment look like daylight.
In the center of the banquet hall, a long dining table was filled with food and wine.
Under the light, the exquisite tableware shines with a special light, and the many delicacies exude an alluring aroma, making people salivate.
Jagu Medalda was wearing a dark red and gold uniform, sitting at the head of the table, the wine in his hand swaying gently, exuding a faint aroma of wine.
On his left hand side, Camille Feros was wearing a dark dress, and Jagu's old face was reflected in her jewel-like eyes.
"Camille, I haven't seen you for a long time. You are still elegant and graceful."
Jiagu's deep eyes fell on Camille's almost unchanged face, and a touch of Ripples emerge.
"If you are willing to accept the changes in your body made by Hex Technology, you can also do this." Camille responded.
In the City of Progress, every powerful oligarchic family's research on Hex technology has already penetrated into all aspects of life, including the human body.
I am willing to dedicate myself to my family.
Under the motto of the Philos family, Camille made a deal with her soul and got everything she has now.
Jia Gu chuckled softly, picked up the wine glass, and took a sip of the wine to hide his thoughts.
The pain caused by the evolution of Hex technology, he has already obtained detailed data information from the inventor funded by his family.
At least at his current age, his attitude towards the evolution of Hex technology is quite supportive.
And Jia Gu is not in a hurry.
Since the era of Hex Technology was ushered in, there have been new technological changes almost every day.
He can wait.
"Sternness breeds weakness." Camille looked at Jagu, her eyes twinkling.
She already had some knowledge of the current problems that the Myrdalda family was encountering through Agent Feros.
While the two were talking softly.
Huo Jixing opened the door and walked in, his eyes falling on Jia Gu's left hand side.
Qinggangying·Camille!
The retro-style white hairstyle, the slightly hard and bright face, the jewel-like eyes, and the fierce momentum evoke the memories of his previous life.
The Camille he saw now was basically the same as the scene in his memory of his previous life.
It does carry a fierce momentum, which is more realistic than the computer screen.
What’s more, Camille’s body has been enhanced and transformed with Hex technology, and there are almost no traces of the technology.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Camille turned her head sideways, and the figure of Huo Jixing appeared in her blue eyes.
"This guy"
Camille's heart trembled, and ripples appeared on her usually calm face when she saw Huo Jixing.
Her eyes, as bright as gems, were filled with light, like a lighthouse in the deep sea, illuminating the surrounding darkness.
Huo Jixing seemed to be an ordinary person, but he gave her an extremely dangerous feeling.
This is the first time she has felt like this since she has carried out countless dangerous missions and met many difficult opponents.
Under her modified Hex eyes, Huojixing was like a huge furnace that was burning all the time.
And the flames in this furnace are no ordinary flames, they are even more terrifying.
Now this terrifying flame is contracted within Huo Jixing’s small body, extremely quiet.
"Hello, Ms. Camille."
Huo Jixing walked over with a smile on his face, stretched out his right hand, and spoke softly.
“I am Huo Jixing.”
Camille stood up, held Huo Jixing's right hand, and a smile appeared on her hard face.
“It’s a pleasure to meet you. I have heard about your reputation in the Noxus Empire.”
Simple words tell the origin of Huo Jixing’s identity , and the deeds he left behind in the Noxus Empire.
This not only tells the strength of Philos, but also shows the importance she attaches to today's meeting.
During the day, after receiving the reply from the Myrdalda family, Camille made a direct appointment to meet tonight.
This is also the origin of the current banquet.
After shaking hands gently, the two sat down on the left and right sides of Jia Gu.
Huo Jixing picked up the wine and took a sip casually.
Unable to be noticed by Jagu and Camille, the power of the spirit spread silently.
Being in Piltover and in the Myrdalda family, he has already seen the changes brought about by Hex Technology.
But Camille brought a little sense of danger to Huo Jixing, who was embarking on the legendary journey.
Huo Jixing's eyes moved, his pupils filled with red gold, and he noticed something different about Camille.
He looked at Camille's face, which was almost indistinguishable from ordinary people, and couldn't help but sigh at the development of Hex technology.
But after all, Hex Technology is still slightly different from ordinary people.
The most special thing is Camille's gem-like eyes. If you look carefully, you can see that they are two carefully carved Hex gems.
Other than that.
He also noticed the majestic magical power permeating Camille's body.
This is not like the magical power of a normal extraordinary person, but more like absorbing rune items, and the source is Camille's heart.
"The core of Hex Technology." Huo Jixing thought secretly in his heart.
Camille seems to have completely transformed herself into a sophisticated Hextech instrument, gaining strength far beyond that of ordinary people.
Huo Jixing compared the many heroes he had encountered and reasonably doubted that Camille's strength had already reached the peak of heroes.
I just don’t know whether the power burst out from the Hex Stone is stronger or weaker than the heroes with extraordinary skills.
“Perhaps she doesn’t need skills. She can perfectly control her body and movements with Hex technology.”
Huo Jixing thought of Camille recorded by the Myrdalda family. Combat information.
"The Evolution Day is coming soon, will Lord Huo Jixing attend?" Camille looked over and asked.
"If the problem is solved successfully, I will be happy to go." Huo Jixing looked at Jia Gu, who was in charge, and replied softly.
Then he recalled the Hextech equipment he had seen and spoke curiously.
"I heard Jarl say that with the development of Hex technology, different Hex technology cores have different energy intensities."
"How to distinguish this?"
Hearing this, Camille pondered for a while, then organized her words and said.
"In the early days of the development of Hex technology, there was no such distinction."
"Because the magical energy in the Hex crystal is uncontrolled and cannot be effectively controlled."
" Until Councilor Tallis completed the stabilization of the Hex Crystal and created the Hex Gem."
Camille looked at Jagu deeply. The Myrdalda family has its current powerful position not only due to its own trade and wealth, but also due to the influence of Jess Tallis.
"Lord Huo Jixing, you can ask the head of the Jiagu family. The Myrdalda family has rich experience in this regard."
Huo Jixing looked at Jiagu, who had been silent, and met the opponent's raised eyebrows. Eyes.
"Congressman Talis has indeed made an indelible impact on the research of Hex Technology." Jagu spoke slowly.
"Hextech can harness the magical energy contained in the Hex Crystal, and its power is only limited by the user's imagination."
"Senator Tallis Based on this aspect, the Hex Gem was invented and a true Hex technology item was created.”
"This is an epoch-making item that distinguishes the previous Hex-standard equipment."
"It gives Hex technology unique capabilities."
"And every piece of it produced Hex technology items probably took several years to create."
Jia Gu looked at Huo Jixing with a smile and said in invitation.
"If Mr. Huo Jixing is interested, I can ask Jal to take you to the family laboratory."
No matter which house in Piltover you are in, Hextech Labs are a highly confidential place and are forbidden to outsiders.
Because it contains many research results of each family.
When Camille heard Jagu’s invitation, her eyes flashed and she sighed secretly.
It is Jagu who leads the Myrdalda family to the pinnacle of Piltover.
“With pleasure.”
Huo Jixing nodded slightly, agreed, and then asked seemingly casually.
“I heard that Senator Tallis once had a very good friend named”
“Victor!”
“Do you have any influence?”
< br>After hearing Victor's name, Jagu and Camille fell into silence and looked at each other silently.
"Sir, does this matter involve Victor?" Jagu quickly gathered his mood and asked in a solemn voice.
"No, I'm just curious."
Huo Jixing shrugged his shoulders and expressed his thoughts.
Jagu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Under the deliberate control of public opinion, Victor's name had long been submerged among many famous inventors.
In fact, many families in Piltover are very aware of Victor's contribution to the development of Hex technology.
But Victor no longer belongs to Piltover, but is a native of the Undercity.
Just when Jia Gu continued to speak.
Suddenly, a deafening explosion sounded, breaking the pleasant atmosphere in the restaurant.
At the same time, there was a shaking sensation, and the food on the dining table spilled out of the disc and fell on the white tablecloth.
Huo Jixing raised his eyebrows slightly, stood up immediately, came to the window sill of the restaurant, and looked into the distance.
Under the black night sky.
The blazing flames soared into the sky, blooming like flowers in the night sky.
The mushroom cloud-like aftermath is reflected in the sky, attracting the attention of countless people, like a doomsday scene.
The panic in the city gradually emerged, and the piercing sirens came one after another, breaking the tranquility of the night.
On the wide streets, Piltover guards gathered urgently, and fire engines roared past, rushing to the disaster place.
"It's the Zodiac basement."
Camille stood beside Huo Jixing and spoke in a solemn voice.
Zodiac Basement.
The safest bank in Piltover.
Huo Jixing's expression immediately changed, and a hazy mist appeared at his feet, lifting his body and disappearing into the main castle.
Behind him, Camille looked surprised. After a little hesitation, she jumped down from the window.
Buzz! Buzz!
Two slender steel wire ropes were embedded between different buildings, rippling Camille's body and disappearing into the darkness.
Move forward in time.
After getting Devaki's confession, Caitlin discussed with Vi and immediately organized the Piltover guards to go to the Zodiac Vault.
With the power of the Sheriff of Piltover and the Gila Mann family, Caitlin broke into the Zodiac vault and met the person in charge of the vault.
Originally, as the person in charge of the Zodiac basement, Caitlin would not see her so easily.
After all, it is the safest bank in Piltover, and the items stored in it involve many merchant families in Piltover.
But with the Hextech precision rifle and the secret order signed by Councilor Tallis, the person in charge had to make concessions.
“Hey, I didn’t expect you to be in contact with Senator Tallis.”
In the gilded room in the Zodiac basement, Wei moved her hands, and the giant Hextech gloves glowed blue.
Jace Tallis, Councilor of Piltover, the great inventor who ushered in the Hextech Era.
Even Wei has heard Jace's name mentioned countless times in the past.
“Don’t think too much, Jace and I are just friends.”
Caitlin was carefully wiping her Hextech Seiko rifle, and when she heard Vi’s teasing words, she fiercely He glared at his partner.
She recalled her meeting and conversation with Jace, and looked around at the Piltover guards with solemn expressions.
After all, this operation involves the Zodiac vault, and the Hex gems and Hex stabilizing devices stored in the basement by the Myrdalda family.
Only as a member of Parliament for Piltover can the subsequent turmoil be suppressed.
And because of the secrecy of this operation, Caitlin did not mobilize too many manpower, only the police force of her own police station.
Seemingly sensing Caitlin's seriousness, Wei walked over and bumped Caitlin's shoulder.
"Don't worry, believe in yourself."
Caitlin suppressed her inner thoughts, clenched the Hextech precision rifle in her hand, and nodded gently to Wei.
Compared to Vi's fiery temper, Caitlin smelled a hint of conspiracy after receiving the news.
She immediately mobilized intelligence information from the police station, as well as news about the battle that took place at the port last night.
“There is an undercurrent sweeping Piltover and Zaun.”
Caitlin began to patrol along the inside of the Zodiac basement.
After working hours, only the hired guards were on duty in the Zodiac basement, and other staff members had gone home from get off work.
“Are you sure there is no secret passage in the basement?” Caitlin looked at the person in charge behind her who was wearing a brocade uniform.
"Absolutely not, our Zodiac basement is quite safe." The person in charge shook his head in denial.
“And I don’t think anyone could quietly steal something from a basement.”
The person in charge pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, thinking of the many gunshots he had faced before, and spoke in a deep voice.
"Chief Caitlin, if you get nothing from this operation, even with the secret order signed by Councilor Tallis, I will complain to the council about you."
Caitlin If she doesn't answer, now that she has made a decision, she won't be afraid of the other party's complaints.
"Wei, go and see me again."
Dingle bell! Jingle bell bell!
Before Caitlin could finish her words, a piercing alarm sounded, echoing in the basement.
