Chapter 298 Aftermath: Sea of Watchers
Myrdalda Castle.
Jiagu stood on the white jade balcony, looking at the rising dawn glow in the distance.
The crimson glow seems to be a carefully blended color, soaking through the thick clouds and spilling over the stretching buildings.
Everything in the distance gradually calmed down under the glow of dawn.
The wind stopped howling, the drizzle quietly disappeared, and the roaring waves poured into the Sea of Watchers.
The once towering buildings are now only ruins, telling the story of the prosperity and glory of the past.
Wrath of the Storm·Janna!
Jia Gu thought of the wind elf he had just seen, and his heart could not calm down for a long time, and ripples appeared in his deep eyes.
In many popular myths and stories.
Janna is the oldest being who protects Piltover and Zaun.
But it was too long ago.
So long that several generations have passed away, so long that everything is recorded in dilapidated books.
As a result, some people believe it, some people question it, and some people treat it with a normal heart.
But now, people who have experienced the disaster of death will once again believe in this ancient and mysterious wind spirit.
Jia Gu withdrew his gaze, wore a gold-rimmed red gown, and sat down against the soft sofa.
He was waiting for news, waiting for the final result of the Battle of Stillwater Prison.
In the quiet study room.
Time passes slowly, and each second seems to stretch out, making people feel the weight of time.
Jiagu is like an aging wealthy businessman, no longer as shrewd as before, immersed in his own thoughts,
From the dawn of dawn to the slanting sunlight of noon, the study room was always silent.
Until subtle footsteps sounded, breaking the silent atmosphere.
Jia Gu sat up straight, put his hands in front of him, and looked across the desk to the door of the study.
Butler Shiloh appeared at the door with slightly hurried steps.
His expression was solemn, completely different from his usual amiability.
The gemstone monocle worn on the left eye reflected the anxious color in the pupil, as if something shocking had happened.
"Master, there is an emergency that needs you to handle."
Butler Shiro walked up to Jia Gu, bowed and spoke, with a hint of urgency in his voice.
Jia Gu nodded and signaled Butler Hiro to continue.
Butler Shiloh thought of the news he had received, took a deep breath, and began to describe the information he had received.
The atmosphere in the study also became solemn.
[The mutiny in Stillwater Prison, the hidden laboratory at the bottom of the prison. ]
[Enter the laboratory and are unexpectedly attacked by the Eye of Zaun. ]
In addition, there are also interceptions from Doctor Mundo and Jinx. ]
[See the secret experimental base. ]
[Including the shimmer area, the alchemical creature area, the Hextech area, etc. ]
[The existence of the Source Project warriors and the terrifying strength displayed. ]
[Victor's glorious evolution. ]
[Carry out unauthorized human experiments that violate the moral bottom line, including experiments on the fusion of human anatomy and technological components. ]
[The final experimental product, the Hex Mecha created with Vladimir's blood and blood magic. ]
[The actions of Huo Jixing and Vladimir caused the Pilt River to pour back]
[As a result, the city of Piltover was marginalized and turned into a place of ruins. ]
After finishing speaking, Butler Hiro paused, looked at Jiagu, and said cautiously.
"After the battle, Master Huo Jixing seems to have disappeared, and no trace of him has been found yet."
Hearing this, a flush appeared on Jia Gu's old face, sharp and deep. His eyes met Hero's.
"Are you sure?"
Butler Hero nodded solemnly.
"Confirmed!"
"Members of Congress mobilized all nearby Pi City guards to search the ruins, but no trace of Master Huo Jixing has been found."
< br>He raised his eyes to look at Jia Gu, whose expression was constantly changing, and continued to speak.
"However, they did not find the body of Mr. Huo Jixing."
Jia Gu frowned, crossed his hands together, and his finger bones were faintly white.
Huo Jixing's unexpected disappearance will put the Myrdalda family into a dilemma.
If the Noxus Empire issues censure for this, it may shake the power and position of the Myrdalda family.
“Immediately make arrangements to have everyone from the Chamber of Commerce and the family go over to assist the council in the search.”
Before Butler Shiro could reply, heavy footsteps entered the study.
Bang!
The wooden door engraved with exquisite patterns was violently pushed open and hit the wall with a deafening echo.
Usil.
The person in charge of the Leiser Guard Secret Office, who was wearing a metal armor, appeared at the door with a gloomy expression, his eyes falling on Jia Gu.
Her slender legs stepped on the soft carpet, giving off a metallic sheen.
Seeing Youshil, the atmosphere in the study instantly became tense.
Jiagu looked at Youshil and sighed, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.
The appearance of Yousil means that the Leiser Guard Secret Office has received news from Huo Jixing.
Although the Reese Guard Secret Base has suffered heavy damage before.
But the power of the Noxian Empire in Piltover cannot be underestimated.
"Youhir, why are you here?" Jagu said softly.
Facing the person in charge of the Leise Garrison, he naturally lowered his attitude.
Yousil did not answer immediately, but walked up to Jagu, his metal prosthetic eyes as sharp as knives, staring straight into Jagu's eyes.
After a moment, she spoke, with a decisive tone in her voice.
"Lord Huo Jixing is missing."
"I already know. I just gave the order to mobilize all the forces of the Chamber of Commerce and the family to find Lord Huo Jixing." Jia Gu replied in a deep voice.
Butler Hiro observed his words and immediately bowed and said: "Lord Yousil, I was just about to organize the forces."
Yousil's metal prosthetic eyes were in the presence of Jagu and Butler Hiro. He looked around and finally nodded slowly.
She doesn't have much to do now. The Reese Defense Secretariat has been hit hard and there is not enough manpower.
"With Master Huo Jixing's strength, he will not fall so easily." Jiagu comforted Youshil. Youhil was thoughtful and looked at Jiagu deeply.
Then she suppressed her inner emotions and quickly left the study.
Butler Shiloh looked at Youshil's disappearing back and stood quietly, waiting for orders.
Jia Gu's eyes flickered, and after pondering for a while, he opened his mouth and gave instructions.
"Inform Jarl and ask him to lead people to find Master Huo Jixing."
"As for you, personally lead people to the Pilt River to salvage the Hextech experiments of the forces behind the Eye of Zaun. "
"It is best to have stored experimental data. This is the most important thing at the moment."
Jagu understands that this battle has caused irreparable damage to Piltover. loss.
But at the same time, he also saw the hope of change brought by the experimental base.
The experimental subjects created by Hex Technology are already comparable to legendary supernatural beings.
The existence of the Source Project fighters also proves that Hex Technology can continue to move forward.
“Glorious evolution?”
Jagu couldn’t help but think of the ideas that Victor once proposed, which had a great impact on Piltover at the time.
The iron heart never stops beating and is not controlled by emotions.
So why do people still entrust their lives to the fragile heart of flesh and blood?
“It’s time for us to make a choice.”
Zaun, Gorask Castle
In the silent laboratory.
Renata stood in front of the workbench, operating the Gorask Industrial Decanter in front of her.
You can see traces of corrosion on Lenata's arms and abdomen, with bloody energy remaining.
A flash of magenta light scanned his injuries.
She quickly took appropriate measures and used alchemical compounds to heal her injuries.
"The power of legend?"
Renata thought of the scene of destruction she had seen on the edge of Piltover city before, and her eyes filled with fanaticism.
She was prepared to provoke rebellion at the last moment.
There is a secret compartment hidden in every Gorask product sold to Piltover and Zaun.
Her parents' secret alchemy technology is sealed inside, and can be released at any time as long as she gives instructions -
The side effects take effect immediately, controlling everyone who possesses Gorask's products.
But the fierce battle she finally saw made her give up her inner thoughts.
"The power of Hex Technology. I have a new idea."
Leonata walked out of the laboratory and looked up at the blue sky, reflecting the environment of Piltover in her eyes.
Although the wind and rain have long since disappeared, the clarity and brightness of the past have been restored.
But there are still some traces left by the disaster.
With the arrival of Evolution Day.
Piltover once again has a somewhat bustling and noisy atmosphere.
Piltover, Gate of the Sun.
Going far east is a vast and boundless sea area.
Sea of Watchers!
This sea area is slightly different from the Sea of Conquerors. It is not a simple trade channel.
It is a chaotic place where wealth and pirates are intertwined, and it is much bloodier.
There are countless pirates, smugglers, smugglers, etc. inside, making the sea filled with a strong smell of blood.
Every year, countless ships flock from all directions to the depths of the sea, an archipelago in the sea far away from the mainland.
On the dark sea level.
There is a black ship cutting through the waves and moving forward quickly.
Its hull is extremely ferocious, as if it were a ferocious sea beast, ready to swallow its prey at any time.
A huge crossbow is placed at the very front of the bow, its sharp arrow flashing with cold light.
The surrounding hulls are densely covered with hollow gun ports, like the eyes of a giant beast, staring coldly and cruelly at the calm ocean.
These muzzles can fire deadly shells, turning all enemies who dare to get close to ashes.
The most eye-catching thing is a huge bloody sail raised on the ship.
It flutters in the strong wind, like bloody wings, cutting through the blue sea level.
"Hey, Sock, your slave hasn't woken up yet?"
On the ship's board, a fat pirate with a scimitar hanging from his waist said, with a glint in his eyes. .
Not far away from him, there was a half-year-old child cleaning the stains and blood stains on the ship.
"It seems that your silver snake coins are going to be wasted. You have auctioned a useless slave."
When Suoke heard this, he raised his handsome face after drying and shook his head slightly.
“He is mine, this is the rule set by the captain.”
“Even if I don’t wake up now, I will take him back to Bilgewater.”
The fat pirate walked up to Sok and looked down at the newly joined crew member with gloomy eyes.
“Hey, in this case, your loss may be more than one Silver Snake Coin.”
"If you leave it to me now, I can give you half a silver snake coin."
