Chapter 362 Defeats the Enemy Shen Li Rong Iron Girl
Five days later.
The early morning sunlight shines through the windows into the lobby of the three-story building, coating every inch of space with a warm golden glow.
Huo Jixing woke up early, sat on a comfortable chair and waited quietly.
On his shoulder, a snow-white poro lay lazily, occasionally blinking its golden eyes, as if he was also enjoying the peaceful morning.
Ta-ta! Ta-ta!
Anne ran down the stairs wearing a newly bought skirt. The hem of the skirt swayed gently with her steps, making her look lively and cute.
She was carrying a brand new bag and holding Tibbers in her arms, with a smile of anticipation and excitement on her face.
Huo Jixing promised her that he would take her around the capital today.
Anne has long been thinking about the bustling scene and interesting shops in the Noxus capital day and night.
"Uncle Huo Jixing, let's set off."
Anne said impatiently, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and yearning for the upcoming trip.
Huo Jixing lowered his eyes and stopped on Annie's face, noticing the bright and innocent smile that seemed to dispel all the haze.
He seemed to have really changed Anne's fate, allowing her to avoid the pitiful experience brought about by her stepmother.
In the memory of her previous life, the heart of the daughter of darkness was once shrouded in panic and uneasiness.
But now, those shadows are gone, replaced by hope and laughter.
Huo Jixing stood up with a smile, gently picked up Annie, and nodded to Henie who walked out of the restaurant.
They left their residence together and walked towards the outside world.
Gregory originally agreed to come together today, but he went to visit a friend in the capital yesterday and sent someone to send a message in the evening to stay at his friend's place.
The occult school behind him has some important contact points in the capital.
These contact points not only provide certain information and resources for members of the occult school, but also serve as a bridge for them to communicate with the outside world.
Gregory caused heavy losses to the Mystery School due to his own affairs, and was ready to find out more about the situation.
So there is no way to participate in today’s itinerary.
Huo Jixing originally wanted to invite Catalina, but he got the news.
Katrina seems to have a new mission and has already gone to the Shurima continent.
The Du Cacao family has a power that cannot be ignored in the Shurima continent, and Catalina, as the most popular heir of the family, will naturally receive the support and protection of the family.
Coupled with Catalina's own strong strength, Huo Jixing did not have too many worries about her mission.
On the bustling streets of the capital.
Huo Jixing and his group were walking, enjoying a rare leisure time.
The sun shines through the clouds and shines on them, warm and bright.
Huo Jixing hugged Annie and walked in front, followed by Heini.
Annie's little hands tightly grasped Huo Jixing's skirt, her little face filled with excitement and curiosity.
From time to time, she would point excitedly at the scenery on the roadside and ask questions.
"Uncle Huo Jixing, what is that? Why does it move on its own without the need for human control?"
Annie pointed to a roadside shop where a man was acting on his own in front of the stage. metal little man.
Huo Jixing patiently answered Annie's questions.
“The toys from Piltover at that time had springs inside, and they could move by themselves after accumulating force.”
“Wow, it’s so magical!” Annie’s eyes widened. Big, somewhat incredible.
"Do you want it?" Huo Jixing asked with a smile.
"Yeah!" Annie nodded.
Along the way, Annie would always see something that she found interesting.
Every time at this time, Huo Jixing would stop and take her and Heini into the store to pick out those small and exquisite toys.
Then I bought them and stuffed them into Annie's little bag.
In this way, they were enjoying the scenery of the capital while chatting, occasionally stopping to buy some gadgets.
The prosperity of the Noxus capital indeed far exceeds the northern border.
In comparison, the residents of the North Border focused on the practical use of items for their livelihood.
People in the capital city pay attention to the luxury and uniqueness of items.
In the shops in the capital, you can see rare items from different places in Valoran.
Some of these items are renowned for their exquisite craftsmanship and unique designs, while others are highly sought after for their rare materials and historical value.
In addition, there are some woven products full of exotic customs from the continent of Shurima.
These woven products attract many people's attention with their unique materials and bright colors. Showing the culture and artistic style of Shurima continent.
Time passes slowly.
Huo Jixing held Annie in his arms and, accompanied by Heini, strolled through the streets and alleys of the capital, feeling the hustle and bustle of the bustling city.
Until dusk, the afterglow of the setting sun filled the streets and alleys of the capital.
Annie's interest dropped, and she hugged Huo Jixing's neck tightly, whispering that she was hungry and wanted to go home.
Huo Jixing then returned home with a full load of food and supplies.
Only on the way back.
When Huo Jixing was walking along the streets near the Immortal Fortress, he seemed to sense something. His eyebrows were raised, and a red-golden glow quietly appeared in his pupils.
He looked northwest and saw a familiar cloud appearing in his field of vision, moving quickly.
"Black Rose?"
Huo Jixing was thoughtful and immediately called Heini, then gently patted Annie on the back and said softly.
"Annie, go back with brother Henie first. I have some urgent things to do."
Anne blinked, looked at Henie, and nodded sensibly.
“Okay.”
Huo Jixing stayed where he was, watching the figures of Heini and Annie drift away and disappear at the end of the field of vision.
He had no concerns about Anne's safety.
Anne's flame magic talent and extraordinary will are enough to suppress part of Tybok's consciousness hidden in her body.
However, Huo Jixing was a little surprised by Taibok's recent performance.
Since the last time he met Swain, Tybok has become taciturn and rarely comes out again.
He secretly thought that some conversations with Swain might have brought about some changes in the flame demon who had been imprisoned for countless years.
Huo Jixing put away his thoughts and raised his eyes to look into the distance. With a snow-white poro, his figure moved and escaped into the shadows of the street,
near the Immortal Fortress.
Under the soft light of dusk, a majestic noble castle stands tall.
At the solid city gate, the noble private soldiers were wearing armor and holding sharp swords, looking around warily. Huo Jixing hid in the shadows and noticed that in addition to private soldiers, this aristocratic castle also had many hidden sentries peeking at everything in the corners of the castle.
"It seems that we have found the right place."
Huo Jixing looked at the motionless clouds in the distance, closed his eyes slightly, and his spiritual power extended out like invisible tentacles, quietly invading the consciousness of the dark whistlers.
He cleverly confused their perceptions and sneaked in quietly.
The interior of the castle is empty and quiet, unlike normal nobles who have many slaves and attendants.
Instead, rune arrays for warning were set up in many places.
These runic arrays are quite intricate, some emit faint energy fluctuations, and others lie quietly on the ground, seemingly ordinary but hiding murderous intent.
Once you touch the rune circle accidentally, it will attract the attention of everyone in the castle.
Huo Jixing moved forward slowly and cautiously, his steps light and firm, avoiding the warning rune formations one after another.
"It is indeed the secret base of Black Rose." He sighed secretly.
To waste so much rare and extraordinary materials and set up a large number of rune arrays in the castle, only the black rose hidden in the dark can do it.
"I hope you won't disappoint me!"
Huo Jixing crossed the corridor, followed the traces of clouds, and finally penetrated deep into the core area of the castle.
“It’s her!”
He looked at the old woman with long gray hair in his field of vision, and thought of her identity.
In the battle in Snow Ridge Town, members of the Black Rose raided Annie.
The old woman Tersi came to a closed stone door with complex runes and patterns carved on it.
As soon as Tersi stood still, a black light fell down and covered her. After a moment, the stone door opened to both sides.
Tersi didn’t hesitate and stepped in directly.
"Identify?"
Huo Jixing raised his brows slightly. He did not expect that Black Rose would have such a strict magic review process for internal members.
It is still difficult for him to sneak in silently.
“Wait a little longer.”
Huo Jixing glanced at the sky, stood in the shadow, and waited silently.
The sky is dim and the stars are lonely.
In the core area of the castle, another group of members wearing black robes, a total of four people, wore the emblem representing the black rose on their chests.
They escorted more than a dozen ordinary people wearing hoods to the stone gate.
The engraved runes light up, and the black light falls like drizzle, mysterious and strange.
The Black Rose members passed through the stone gate smoothly, and everything seemed calm and uneventful.
However, just when the black light fell into the ordinary people they were escorting, the stone door suddenly trembled.
The members of Black Rose reacted immediately, and just as they were about to separate quickly, they heard a low roar.
In the corner of their eyes, an ordinary person who was supposed to be controlled by magic suddenly stood up, lifting his black hood, revealing golden fragments of hair.
She stretched out her right hand, and the steel she carried fell into her palm, changing violently in the air, forming a huge blunt-tipped spear.
The members of Black Rose looked at the blunt-tipped spear and the golden lines surrounding the gun with horrified expressions.
"The Iron Girl Riel!"
This extraordinary being was actually mixed in among the ordinary people they escorted this time.
Accompanied by a low roar.
Ruier brandished the blunt-tipped spear in his hand and swept across the four Black Rose members in front.
【Defeat the enemy Shen Li】!
The blunt-tipped spear attacked, and the sharp tip of the spear drew a sharp trajectory in the air, making a terrifying wind howl, and roared forward like a giant dragon.
Although the Black Rose members responded quickly, they obviously had no time to dodge in the face of Ruier's sudden attack.
I saw them chanting spells in their mouths, and the dark power fonts poured out, turning into black lights, forming a barrier in front of them.
But these seemingly indestructible black barriers were like paper in front of Riel's blunt-tipped spear, and they shattered upon contact.
The spear easily broke through the dark barrier and directly hit the bodies of the four Black Rose members.
The powerful force burst out instantly, sending them flying like kites with broken strings, and fell hard to the ground.
Dust was flying on the ground, and the four people groaned in pain, their bodies rolled, and they were severely injured.
Riel didn't give them any chance to breathe. She gripped the spear tightly and ruthlessly harvested their lives.
After handling it, Ruier shook off the blood stained on the blunt-tipped spear, looked at the closing stone door in front of him, and rushed over with a fierce expression.
Boom!
The blunt-tipped spear surrounded by golden lines hit the stone door hard, and the huge impact made a deafening roar.
All of a sudden.
A dull sound echoed throughout the core area of the castle.
Crash!
Ruier's expression did not change, and he quickly withdrew his spear.
The stone door shattered directly with her movements, turning into countless fragments and flying everywhere.
She looked down at the broken robe and pushed it down, revealing the steel armor underneath.
In the dim light, the armor shone with a cold light, showing its sturdiness and coldness.
Ruier held the blunt-tipped spear tightly, wore steel armor, and stepped inside.
As she crossed the broken stone door and went deeper step by step, everything around her seemed to begin to become distorted, and an unstable atmosphere filled the space.
She knew that in this castle belonging to Black Rose, there might be unknown crises hidden at every step.
But Ruier did not slow down because of this, but became more determined.
In this dark and mysterious place.
She,
is like that unstoppable fate.
Rescue all the children who, like her, survived Black Rose's magical experiments.
In the shadow of the corner of the castle.
Huo Jixing was originally observing the movements in the castle, preparing to look for opportunities to sneak into the area behind the stone gate.
When he saw the Black Rose members escorting the crowd, he realized that his opportunity had finally come.
Unexpectedly, a violent guy came from the escorting crowd, holding a blunt-tipped spear, and directly smashed the stone door.
"Iron Girl Riel!"
Huo Jixing looked at the blond girl who walked into the stone door passage in astonishment, and shook his head helplessly.
Come on, there is definitely no way to sneak in silently now, so we can only look for opportunities in the chaos.
He first looked at the ordinary people who stayed in place and were controlled by magic, and then looked at the castle that was lit with fire. Without hesitation, he jumped and fell into the passage.
