Lux's Farewell

132 [0129] On the rooftop

After receiving the order, Silko simply turned around and left - he needed to pass the news to Singed as soon as possible.

And after he left, Lux, who was still waiting for Ino's patrol to return, also took the opportunity to chat with Kalya.

"You care about that Singed?" Lux asked with some doubts while packing up the map, "Why, is he difficult to deal with? Before Janna said that she didn't know him very well."

"That must be a ruthless character." Carya's tone was somewhat dignified, "You may not have noticed the latest news about the Ionian War."

"News about the Ionian War?" Lux blinked, "Recently... I really haven't noticed it."

"Mr. Shadow said before that the Noxus used Shimmer Potion in Ionia, and he came to Zaun just to cut off the channel of this potion." Karya helped Lacus recall the shadow before What Mister said, "In addition to the shimmer potion, the Noxians also used a more vicious thing."

"Uh, I remembered." Hearing this, Lux finally realized what Kalya was going to say, "You mean when we were in Piltover, those tabloids said [Ionia was ashes Haze Covering] Right?"

"Piltover's tabloids are notoriously prone to speculation, but I always feel that what they said this time may be true." Carya said the topic was extremely serious, "Combined with what happened when we left the mine. Judging from the trench gas tanks, I am afraid that they have really mastered the use of trench gas, and may have even put it into the war in Ionia."

"You mean... the Noxus prepared a large amount of poisonous gas and put it on the battlefield in Ionia?!" Lux's eyes widened in disbelief, "How is this possible, although the poisonous gas is very It’s dangerous, but if you want to control the situation of the battle, I’m afraid the quantity you need will be incomparably astonishing, and if you want to produce those poisonous gases, Zaun may need a huge poisonous gas factory!”

"That's what I'm worried about." Kalya sighed, "Singed is confident in protecting so many alchemy barons, and still chooses to negotiate with you on an equal footing under this situation. If he is not a fool, then there must be rely on."

"And you think poison gas is his reliance?"

"That's right." Kalya affirmed, "So, we must be fully prepared."

"We need Janna's help?"

"Janna's divine power is limited right now." Carya denied this possibility, "I want her to help unless the entire Zuanan regains the belief in the blue bird again."

"It's not a bad idea." This method moved Lacus a little, "Zuan just needs to calm people's hearts, and the blue bird is a folk custom here..."

"Absolutely not." Kalya said immediately, "The question about the gods... This is more complicated, but it is very important for the local people and this god to let the gods gain divine power through belief—especially the belief in a certain area. , are all dangerous, and at this point, I have suffered enough."

"Is that what you and Janna mentioned... destroying the false gods?" Lux was a little curious, "It seems that Shurima was destroying these gods at that time?"

"Almost." Karya is unwilling to continue on this topic, "I will talk to you in detail about the issues of gods and beliefs after the situation in Zaun and Piltover is stable, and it will involve your future Climbing Targon—in short, even if Janna is a 'good god', it's best not to let her become a faith in Zaun again."

"But Janna really helped us, Zaun a lot..."

"About being no longer believed in, Janna thinks so too." Kalya said something that left Lacus dumbfounded, "Janna herself is also happy to see the loss of divine power. It is her choice to remember and overlook the city she loves with the posture of a blue bird, so you don't have to feel sorry for her."

"Janna usually gives me the feeling of being calm, but I didn't expect her to be so calm in her heart!" Lux said in disbelief, "I really want to know what happened between her and you in the past... It's a pity that you don't Ken said."

"When it comes to matters involving the gods, you can't be too careful." Kalya remained silent, "In short, you just need to know that Janna can't help you in this matter, so that's fine."

"That's a little troublesome." Lux packed up the map and documents, and sat down on the bed with some helplessness, "So, if Singed is not willing to accept a new Zaun, don't we have to face the ditch The threat of poisonous gas?"

"That's why the meeting tomorrow is very important." Kalya agreed, "But judging from the current situation, we may not have no hope of solving the problem peacefully. Singed is indeed a bit tricky."

"It would be best if it can be resolved peacefully, the smog in Zaun is already serious." Lux nodded, "Hey——Ino is back? Are there still bastards with no eyes wandering around the tavern today? "

"It's gone." Yinuo shook his head, "Those bastards haven't had time to hide, how could they take the initiative to come up to them? I went to patrol around and just took a walk..."

"That's good, that's good." Lux showed a relieved smile, and then couldn't help but yawned, "Before Vander and Sevica went to deal with those bastards who took advantage of the fire, tomorrow you may also Participating in the maintenance of order, I'm afraid it will be a lot harder."

"Maintaining order is not hard work. I dreamed of becoming a security knight when I was a child—it's just that I didn't have a chance." Ino skillfully took off his rune steel armor, "Now it's a dream come true... I have to say If it's hard work, I think wearing armor is a bit hard."

Hearing what Ino said, Lux subconsciously glanced at her figure, and then suddenly felt very tired.

When Mingming left Demacia, her mother prepared many sets of armor for herself and Ino.

In the end, it didn't take long, and Yinuo had already changed into the largest size...

Sometimes Lux is really curious, is that cold bloodline really that exaggerated?
Good guy, since Ino's awakening, her magic power, magic control and even her figure are like blowing up a balloon.

Even though Lux's development is normal, far crushing Wei and Bangbang, who are firmly established, she still feels a subtle envy every time she sees Yinuo taking off his helmet and armor.

Shaking her head, Lax finally got these messy thoughts out of her mind - I don't want to forget about them, I have to meet that Singed tomorrow, so let's go to bed early today!
........................

At Karya's suggestion, the place where the two parties met was chosen on the rooftop.

Singed had no opinion on the time and place chosen by Lux.

So, at two o'clock in the afternoon the next day, Singed and Lacus, tall and short, finally met for the first time on the roof of the abandoned glass factory.

And the first impressions the two have of each other... are subtle.

After coming to Zaun, Lux has seen a lot of strange people, and there are countless people who get a prosthetic limb after a severed limb.

However, like Singed, he wrapped himself like a mummy, and this was the first one.

Judging from the red skin exposed at the edge of the bandage, his wrapped skin should be all torn apart.

It's like... being soaked in strong acid.

Coupled with the tall, thin but subconsciously hunched figure, and the small eyes, which are naturally full of cruelty, Singed almost wrote "I am not a good person" on his face.

Moreover, even in the outdoor environment, the weird smell on his body is still very clear, and even with the help of Janna to summon the breeze to blow over, Lacus still feels his nose itchy...

At the same time, when Singed looked at Lacus, he also felt very strange.

This little girl really looks a little too ordinary - it's not that Lacus looks ordinary, but her temperament doesn't look like a leader at all.

In other words, there is no majesty at all.

The long, smooth golden hair was not neatly combed into a bun, but casually hung on the shoulders.

The smile on his face was not the standard, polite one that concealed his thoughts, but it came from the heart.

Even after taking all kinds of alchemy potions, Singed, whose hearing is far superior to that of ordinary people, heard her own low-pitched tune before approaching Lacus...

Is this guy really the scary guy that Cassiopeia said in the mouth of that woman, the vicious existence in the mouth of the alchemy baron?

Or is it that her disguise ability is so superb that she can't see even a little flaw?
Singed, who was a little puzzled in his heart, didn't speak immediately.

"Ah, Mr. Alchemist!" Lux waved his hand proactively, "Nice to meet you!"

"Perhaps the reason why you are happy is not to see me." Singed took off a sealed glass bottle from his waist, shook it vigorously in his hand for a while, and then popped the lid with his thumb, "It should be Is it because those workers have already taken down almost all of Zaun—would you like a drink?"

Lux glanced at the dirty glass bottle and the miserable green liquid with bubbling bubbles in it, and finally shook her head.

I don't know whether to refuse this cup of unknown liquid, or to deny that the reason for my happiness is because the workers have occupied the entire Zaun.

"Oh, that's such a pity."

Singed didn't care much about Lux's resistance, and opened a small gap in the gauze in front of his mouth, and then happily poured tons of green liquid into it—then, he happily , burped for a long time, stuffed the empty bottle back into his waist
"Don't be so nervous." He moved his body a little bit, "It's just soda water, haven't you drunk it?"

"I've drank soda, but not the green one." Lux shook her head, "It always reminds me of those unknown liquids in the trench."

"Hahaha, that's exactly what I want!" Singed laughed exaggeratedly with an appearance that didn't fit his own style, "In this way, those bastards who come in and out of my laboratory and don't like to read labels, just No more stealing my soda!"

　Karya's Little Classroom: Hair Color of Frozen Bloodline:

　　People with icy bloodlines tend to have lighter hair color—and, with the awakening of icy bloodlines, their hair color will eventually turn into a silvery white like ice and snow.

　　Ino's hair was light blonde when she first came, but after arriving in Zaun, her hair has completely turned silvery white.
