Chapter 57 It's Hilco

Rowan likes the anime Two Cities very much, and he admires two characters in the anime the most. One is the one who just shouts "It's so good". He just satirizes Fandel for Zaun for abandoning his ideals for a little girl and becoming a useless daughter slave, but then he becomes a person who can sacrifice himself and his life for "Bao Bao".

This character is called Hilco, and he won dignity for Zaun. He is a man of great contrasts, an elegant and cruel man.

The other one is naturally Mr. Talis. Rowan also likes Jayce very much, not only because he likes to play the hero Jayce when he is in the top lane, but also because of Jayce's background story.

The title of Guardian of Piltover is not just talk. Jayce has a kind of heroism, and this heroism is not tragic, because Jayce is a very optimistic person, and Rowan happens to be a person who hates sadness.

What's more, Rowan can resonate with Jace.

So, this time when people from Zaun come, do I have any hope of meeting these two people?
Luo Wen thought curiously.

As for Jinx, well, if it was the sober Bakugo in the anime, Rowan would be willing to contact her, but if it was the crazy Jinx, then forget it.

A completely crazy Jinx is like a bomb, and no one knows when she will explode.

However, Rowan was still envious of Jinx's ability to invent. Both Piltover and Zaun are rich in scientists, and the uneducated Jinx was able to develop so many powerful weapons on her own, which shows how talented she is.

While thinking about it, after a while, Rowan and Lux ​​came to the temporary prison in Uzeris. It was called a prison, but in fact it was a rebuilt protection association. Many people who did not have their own residence in Uzeris could live here with the help of the Glow Merchant Corps. Of course, they needed to use labor as money.

Influenced by Demacia, Rowan has indeed become a lot kinder, and wants to intervene when he sees injustice, but this does not mean that Rowan is really a kind-hearted man with no ulterior motives, and the justice and kindness of the Demacians are all within certain rules.

"Lord Rowan."

"Lord Rowan, please come this way. They have been subdued by Lord Lily."

"Well, two people died. We have preserved their bodies, but this has nothing to do with Lady Lilysi. They were the ones who took out the alchemical weapons first. If it weren't for Lady Lilysi, many people would have been injured." Someone plucked up the courage to speak for Lilysi.

But in fact, Luo Wen had no intention of blaming Lily.

He is a typical person who judges people by appearances rather than by reason.

As soon as Rowan entered the door, the Shurimans on both sides hurried to greet him.

"Take me to see it." Luo Wen said to him.

Then, Luo Wen saw Lily who was in the house. When she saw Luo Wen, she immediately came up to him with a smile.

"Isn't this considered as getting into trouble?"

"Of course not. You have done a great job in protecting Uzeris." Rowan also smiled at her.

Lili nodded happily, then held out her hand: "Then where is my reward?"

"Hey, hey, hey, I say, should you ask me for your reward?" Luo Wen was so angry at Lily's behavior that he laughed and slapped her hand away and said.

As a result, Lilisi muttered quietly: "Isn't what you gave the same as what Lady Lacus gave?"

"." Luo Wen stopped moving forward, then turned around and looked seriously at Lux who was following him like a little tail, and said, "Lux, I think Lily deserves a reward for defending the town. What do you think?"

Lux coughed, pretending not to have heard what Lilisi had just said, and said seriously: "She has indeed done a great job. I will reward her with a gem when I return to the room later."

"Thank you for your sentiment." Lilisi said with a smile.

She is indeed easier to get along with than Puna.

Entering the basement, where the original protection organization used to hide treasures, Rowan also saw a group of Zaun people who came to Uzeris.

Wailing sounds echoed throughout the small room. They were tied up, with expressions of pain on their faces.

What surprised Rowan was that the Zaun people were already wearing alchemical prostheses. One of them had his eyes and half of his body modified. The guy with rusty metal looked at Rowan and said, "We are here to make a deal. Where is Reese? Let him come out."

"Reese?" Rowan was stunned.

A Shuriman accompanying him immediately explained: "He is talking about the leader of the Protection Society. He is dead."

Yes, he was dead, killed by a dozen Gentiles.

A dozen people fighting against a hundred people, it was like a massacre!

He will never forget the day two months ago when he watched the sky fall down over Uzeris.

"Did you hear that? He's dead."

"He's dead? Then who are you?"

"The head of the Glowing Merchant Corps, a Demacian." Rowan walked up to him, squatted down and said.

".Demacia? Why are you in Shurima?"

"If Zaun can come, why can't we?" "Tell me, who asked you to come? I know all about the deal you made with the people here before. Depending on what you say, I will consider whether I can let you go." Luo Wen stood up, took a stool and sat down, looked at him and said.

He raised his head, then used his iron limbs to support his body, looked at Luo Wen and said:
"Will you really let us go?"

"Demacians are as good as their word."

"Okay, then I'll tell you." After hearing Rowan swear in Demacia, the man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I come from the sewers of Zaun. Have you heard of the name Black Alley?"

"Go on." Luo Wen nodded.

"My boss is an alchemy factory businessman in the gutter. He was born in a dark alley and is engaged in the alchemy potion business. Recently, he is developing a potion that can heal human injuries and stimulate human potential. Therefore, we need a lot of people to serve as experimental subjects. Although it is not strange to find a few corpses on the street due to the inexplicable shortage of people in Zaun, my boss is restricted in his actions in the gutter because of one person. That's why he sent us to Shurima to start the human body trading business with Reese."

The more Luo Wen listened, the more an idea emerged in his mind.

He comes from a dark alley, is engaged in the alchemy potion business, and uses human bodies for experiments in order to develop new potions.
It doesn't seem difficult to guess that there is such a large company in Zaun?
"Speak the key."

"Originally we didn't have to come to Shurima, but Black Alley, Fandel, it was Fandel who stopped my boss. He couldn't beat Fandel, so he had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and send us to Shurima, and then, what happened is what you know."

He didn't dare to explain in detail.

The Demacians are upright people, and if you talk about the human experiments in detail, they might mistake you for an evil wizard.

Although that's not magic, it's science.

"."

Vandal,
Sure enough, it must be him.

Come to think of it, Rowan, who has watched the anime, knows very well that although it is not directly stated in the anime, Vandel's territory and power are very large, especially when he was the uncrowned king of Zaun. The Day of Ashes was the day when Vandel led Zaun to launch a riot, rushed to Piltover, and caused conflict.

"I've told you everything I know, can you let us go?"

Luo Wen looked at him, nodded, and said, "Please give a message to your boss, Hilco."

"!"

His eyes fixed, and the man opened his mouth, looking into Luo Wen's eyes. His black eyes were extremely calm, and then he nodded silently.

He... seems to have never mentioned his boss's name?

"I don't care what he wants to do, but it can't affect Demacia, especially in the future. If anyone is lost in Uzeris, I will think it was him. Demacia doesn't like to cause trouble, but we are never afraid of it."

Rowan said calmly.

Behind Rowan, Lily stopped smiling and straightened her chest, while Lux also shifted her curious gaze away from the other's prosthesis and became serious.

Yes, Demacia is never afraid of trouble.

"I understand. I will pass it on to him." The Zaun man nodded and no longer dared to look directly at Luo Wen.

An hour later, a fishing boat set out from Uzeris and headed east.

Rowan looked at the ship heading for the Twin Cities and sighed.

是 的
Demacia is now extremely powerful, but other countries are also becoming stronger.

After Azir's resurrection, he will revive the Shurima Empire. His ambition is to restore Shurima's former glory and let the sun disc of Shurima rise again over the entire Rune Continent.

Swain will rebuild Noxus, the holes in the empire will be repaired by him, and with LeBlanc's cooperation, Noxus will continue to move forward until the day of destruction or success.

The various sects in Ionia will awaken under the leadership of Irelia. They will no longer hold back and develop recklessly. The eastern continent will no longer be an inviolable place.

Piltover will develop Hextech, and Zaun has Glimmer Potion Alchemical Prosthesis, which are weapons that can cause damage to Demacia soldiers.

And what about Demacia at that time?
Is in dire straits.

"Let's go, it's time to eat."

As he was thinking, Lux's voice came from behind Rowan.

Rowan clenched his fists, smiled at Lux, and then took a deep breath.

[Kering experience points increased.]

But I won't let that happen.
