At this time, he has completely lost the majesty of the past, and the sharpness and arrogance in his eyes are not even half left.He was only in his forties, but he looked as haggard as an old man in his sixties.

His hair, which originally had only a few touches of gray, had turned completely white, and his waist was no longer straight.

There were no wounds on his body, but his mental injuries were probably serious.

"Father..." Even though Catalina knew that the other party had planned to kill her, she couldn't help but feel a little soft at this moment - after all, he was the father who had raised her for many years.

She supported the "old man" who looked like he had half his foot in the coffin, and she felt extremely complicated.

In comparison, Chen Ce is much calmer. "Don't worry, General Du Kecao is fine. It's just that he was mentally traumatized by being in the realm of the dead for a long time. He just needs to rest."

"..." Catalina was doubtful.

But it is true.

During the time when General Du Cacault was imprisoned, Mordekaiser did not attack him.

To be precise, Mordekaiser helped him - if it hadn't been for the Lord of the Underworld's words, a living person who "accidentally entered" the underworld would have been eaten alive by the hungry army of ghosts.

"Is this just why you came to me..." Mordekaiser spoke again, but this time he asked Chen Ce. "Just for such an insignificant little role..."

"Of course not, my respected Lord of the Underworld." Chen Ce smiled and saluted, which was enough to give him face. "This is just one of them."

"What about the second one..."

"The second thing is that I want to inform you of something."

"Say……"

"You will be able to return to the Immortal Fortress soon, and I hope you will be ready as soon as possible."

"Huh?" After hearing this, Mordekaiser, who was still a little careless, suddenly became energetic.

A fierce green light flashed through the gap in his huge armor, and the Nightfall in his hand hit the ground heavily.

Boom-!

The earth trembled and ghosts howled.The Lord of the Underworld was so resentful that even the aloof star spirit, the so-called god, had to shun him.

"I will make all betrayers pay the price..." Mordekaiser's deep voice echoed in the wilderness and lingered in everyone's ears, like a low roar from hell, making people's eardrums sting and their hearts fearful.

"Those lowly descendants of barbarians...those inferior inferior bloodlines...how can they deserve to enjoy everything in my castle..."

"I am the king of Noxie..."

"I am... Destiny!"

Boom! !Another hammer fell, all the black mist dissipated, and the powerful shock wave almost knocked Catalina and her daughter to the ground.

Only Chen Ce stood firmly in place, as if Mordekaiser's energy would not cause any harm to him.

"You're right, but you may need to face a strong enemy."

"No matter who it is, it's the same..." Mordekaiser didn't take the other person's reminder to heart at all.

The ancient Runeterra was much scarier than it is now. At that time, no one could stop his bloody pace of expansion and massacre - even the final "failure" was a plot directed and performed by himself. How could anyone do it now? Is he his opponent?

He didn't care.

Until Chen Ce said a name that aroused his interest:

"It's Ram. Peep the devil, Ram."

Upon hearing the name, Mordekaiser was silent for a moment.

Then there was a burst of low, hoarse, teasing laughter.

This reaction was quite expected by Chen Ce.

Sure enough... Mordekaiser may not have fought the demon that gave Swain his power, but he definitely knew that demon.

Because that demon, the Peeping Demon Ram, was found by Swain in a corner of the Immortal Fortress.

In other words...it took the initiative to find Swain.

As we all know, 90.00% of the secret treasures in the Immortal Fortress were collected by Mordekaiser thousands of years ago.

There is no doubt that the demon Ram's "home" - some object or something - was also brought back to the Immortal Fortress by Mordekaiser.

"You know it." Chen Ce's question sounds like a statement.

"Yes, yes... I know too well..." Mordekaiser carried Ye Xun on his shoulders, his huge body exuding supreme majesty. "That demon... one of the nine demons... it made a deal with mortals... This is so in line with their hungry character..."

"Well, it's good if you know it." Chen Ce didn't even ask the other party if he was confident of defeating Ram - this question was a bit nonsense.

"Well, that's enough chit-chat, it's time for us to go."

"As you wish..." Mordekaiser raised his hand, and the thick black mist composed of ghosts surrounded him again, slowly wrapping him. "Don't make me wait too long...Human..."

"Well, I will call you then." Chen Ce smiled and nodded, and the magic power that had the same origin as the other party began to flow. "As fast as possible."

The next moment, [Reincarnation Desperate Realm] was used successfully, and the door to the underworld opened...

The desperate situation of reincarnation can only take one person away at a time, so Chen Ce made two trips back and forth before taking Du Kecao and his daughter out of the realm of the dead.

The daughter was still frightened, and the father could not recover for a long time.

Although the great General Du Cacao was not tortured by Mordekaiser during this period - and was even protected, the death aura of the underworld still made him almost collapse.

As soon as he returned to the material realm, he fell to his knees in pain. His rickety and haggard body and almost bloodless face made him look a little crazy.

In his current state, let alone "taking back" his family, even a [-]th-rate young assassin could easily kill him.

The days ahead are still long, so he can just stay at home and take care of himself.

After fighting for a lifetime, it’s time to enjoy it.

Let the younger generations handle those important military matters...

"Sit..." Catalina carefully helped her father to the sofa, her mood became more complicated.

She felt that she had done a huge mistake...she had actually harmed her biological father like this...

Even if the other party once wanted her life...

Just for "promotion and wealth"...

"Are you feeling guilty? There's no need for that." Chen Ce seemed to see through the girl's thoughts and immediately chuckled: "You saved his life... If you don't cooperate with me and I don't lock him up, you Do you know what will happen in the future?"

"What...?" Katarina was now even more frightened of the young man in front of her - she never imagined that a man of her age could actually make a deal with Mordekaiser...

Even surpassing Mordekaiser to some extent...

That was... a terrifying existence that once ruled all of Runeterra for an entire era...

"He will die." Chen Ce smiled. "If we don't do this, he will foolishly continue to attack Swain, and then cause death - even your entire family."

"..." Catalina pursed her lips, still having a little doubt about this statement - after all, it was a bit empty.

Chen Ce could also see the other party's distrust, but he was too lazy to explain.

This is the fact.

The fact that it develops according to the original timeline.

General Du Cacault was on the wrong side, which not only led to the decline of the family, but also turned against Caterina, making the latter firmly side with Swain.

What’s even more ridiculous is that his wife is from the Black Rose, and his other daughter, Cassiopeia, turned into a half-man, half-snake monster.

In the first half of his life, he was glorious and was hailed as the legendary hero of the empire; in the second half of his life, he made many mistakes and his wife and children were separated.

"Anyway, if you feel guilty, the best thing you can do is take good care of your father in the future - let him enjoy the glory and wealth for the rest of his life, comfortably... Well, you know what I mean." Chen Ce shrugged and said :

"It's still a matter of business."

"Hmm..." Katarina nodded, no longer hesitating - hesitation is the top taboo of assassins.She learned this in her first lesson. "Tell me, what should I do now?"

"It's very simple, just go and assassinate Swain."

"Um……?"

"Yes, you heard that right."

"Assassinate Swain... me?" Catalina's doubtful eyes were mixed with a hint of disbelief. "You know this can't be successful - I have already tried it. I was defeated."

"Don't worry, you are also alone this time, but you are not alone." Chen Ce smiled, "Do you understand what I mean?"

"...will you help?"

"Isn't your understanding ability very good?"

"..." Catalina pursed her lips, "This sounds a bit too simple and crude... I hope to know all your plans. I am not an outsider."

"Ah, but that's the whole plan."

"...?"

"You have to be flexible, my dear Miss Catalina." Chen Ce chuckled and kicked the dark scythe placed in the corner of the living room - the latter immediately made a sound of [ah↗] .

“High-end plans often require only the most modest approach.”

PS:

There will be an additional chapter later today, please give me a blade~~~!

Chapter 56 Noxus, your Emperor is back!

Catalina followed Chen Ce's plan and sneaked into the Immortal Fortress.

Once again... She was already familiar with every road and brick here, and her familiar steps seemed like taking a leisurely stroll in her own back garden.

But she was still a little uneasy.

Swain's demon wings... that scarlet arm... that body repaired by the demon... the failed assassination experience that day was still vivid in her mind, and she no longer had the confidence to take action against that terrifying existence.

It was rumored that Swain had lost a piece of his patella and an arm during the Battle of Placidium in Ionia - it had been rumored several years ago, but who knew that he had already "recovered"?

He found power that was not human in the shadow of the Immortal Fortress... deep in the darkness was the cry of the raven...

He can see everything through the raven's eyes...

clatter.Katarina stopped moving forward.

Her slim and light body hung on the beam, and her eyes trained in the art of assassins stared at the corridor below.

Two guards...they patrolled intently...

But they may never imagine that the target they are guarding against is right above their heads...

Thank God they didn't look up...

This is for the best...the blades forged by Noxian craftsmen had better not pierce the fragile hearts of Noxians...

Katarina was able to kill the two guards with ease and dispose of their bodies well enough that no one would discover them until the changing of the guard in the early hours of the morning.But she really didn't want to do anything to two "colleagues" who were working hard.

kindness?No, this is just the basic respect of fellow sons and daughters of the empire.

She waited quietly for the two people to leave.

She glimpsed the medals of the Trifari Council on their chests... they were warriors of the Trifari Legion.

The Trefari Legion... Swain holds most of the power, and the rest is in the hands of Darius, the Hand of Noxus.

The general who made great contributions to the empire...

Hope he can really stand his ground...

Ta-ta-ta, tap-ta-ta... the footsteps gradually faded away.

Catalina jumped from the rafters and crawled to avoid every window sill - there were many dark ravens hidden in the darkness outside, and their scarlet eyes were watching everything silently... She didn't want to face them. See.

She got closer.

Hundreds of fortress guards failed to spot the figure heading to the commander's room.

The road under her feet became more and more familiar, and also more and more terrifying... The female assassin stopped and walked, and the smell of kerosene entering her nose reminded her of everything that happened that day.

She felt increasingly uneasy.

But she has no turning back.

She could only choose to believe Chen Ce - believe that that weird man would appear before her neck was broken.

Click... The sharp dagger slowly scratched the leather strap, and the assassin ushered in her final test.
