An Infinite Journey From the Sea of ​​Stones

That was when Silko was a teenager, and the leader of Zaun was not he and Vandel, but another boss.

He had witnessed the gray shadow climb over the high fence, leap down the edge of Zaun's cracked canyon, and decapitate the boss with his legs.

Just like her legend, like a shadow that comes and goes freely in the gray fog.

Just like Shirko once witnessed, the Gray Lady landed on the ground with light and psychedelic steps, her legs were like a pair of scissors, and the edges of the blades shone with disturbing brilliance .

"Your limitations are the beginning of your decline."

The Gray Lady's voice is cold and proud, like a precise and efficient noble execution machine

"I never thought that Piltover would fall so far. I thought I could hand over the city to you, but look at you, the lack of strategy makes me sick."

She was looking at Jess and the others, and the sarcasm and attack were undoubtedly aimed at them. Madam Gray's cold eyes swept over Jess and his group, and then looked at Silko.

"My art wiped out the chaos in Piltover, but now it seems the source of the cholera must be eradicated."

Silko, as if he had heard some terrible joke, suddenly out of control covered his stomach and laughed crazily. He pointed at Mrs. Gray and said in a crazily mocking voice:

"Yes! We are the source of cholera! So from today, Zaun and Picheng are no longer one. We are enemies, mortal enemies who fight each other!!!"

"It's not your turn to decide!" Madam Gray said coldly

"Yeah, you people have always been like this. You hate Zaun deeply, but you don't want to cut it off from us. You need Zaun, but you don't want to give us even a little mercy from your gap. "

Silko threw away his cane, picked up the needle containing the shimmer potion, grinned and said

"But it will be different from today. You will know that unless you slaughter Zaun, we will bite the throats of you Picheng people if we have only teeth left!"

"Look at the tower we destroyed, your councilors were burned! Does that include your brother? Camille Fellowes!!!"

After being called out with her name and background, Madam Gray didn't seem surprised, her expression remained the same, even when she heard that her brother had died.

"If Stevan died for the future of Piltover, I would not be sad at all."

Camille's voice was icy cold, if it wasn't for the arrogance that couldn't be hidden anyway, people would think that this is a bloodless and tearless robot!

"Really? That's right. Members of Parliament are big shots, but they are just like screws that can be changed at any time." Silko sneered.

He raised the needle tube filled with shimmering potion, pierced his body fiercely, and injected the dark purple liquid into his blood vessel along the syringe. In an instant, power boiled in Shirko's body !

The subordinates who followed him also activated the alchemy pump worn on their heads without hesitation. The alchemy liquid injected into their bodies brought them superhuman strength, and even their body shapes became similar to those of ordinary people. Frankenstein's monster in general!

This sudden change stunned the group of low-level law enforcement officers behind Jess and the others, and Max's face turned extremely pale.

war, imminent

These warriors mutated by the shimmering potion rushed over like human tanks roaring, and for those law enforcement officers who only held a carbine and electric batons in their hands, these mutants were unstoppable.

Even if the small-caliber bullets penetrated the bodies of these mutant warriors, they were not enough to leave fatal wounds. For the unprepared Piltover law enforcement officers, their firepower was completely unable to deal with this situation!

So Camille moved.

Her body was almost moving with a quick glimpse that could not be caught by the naked eye. She jumped to the center of those alchemy warriors in an instant, supported her body with one hand on her head, danced a splendid waltz of sharp blades with her legs, and cut off the four alchemy warriors in an instant. .

"Vulgar, inefficient, confusing, and nothing more than a one-off piece of crap."

Camille's voice jumped among the group of alchemy fighters, cutting the bodies of these alchemy fighters precisely and gracefully, and at the same time issued his evaluation contemptuously.

As if inspired by Camille, Jess activated the Hammer of Mercury in his hand. With the light of the azure Hex energy, he swung the hammer and sent an alchemist flying tens of meters away. !

"For Piltover!!!"

Jess led these law enforcement officers into the battle. At this moment, even the corrupt Sergeant Max raised his gun and pulled the trigger on the monsters.

Just as Camille was killing gracefully among these alchemy fighters, a gray shadow suddenly rushed over.

The hook locks installed on Camille's legs were thrown instantly, hooking a street lamp to avoid the fatal pounce.

And at the place where he was attacked, a half-man, half-wolf, or just with abnormal hair growing all over his body, Shirko stared at him viciously, with blood-red eyes and fangs and claws. .

"From now on, you will only be a lowly beast."

Camille stood on the top of the street lamp and looked at Silko contemptuously. With her scientific literacy, she saw at first glance that the transformation Silko had undergone was irreversible.

That overdose of shimmering potion has completely destroyed the man's physiology, and now turning into a beast only means that he will never be human again - or, in a moment, he will collapse due to the immune system And died miserably.

"It doesn't matter, as long as it can bite your throats off."

Silko licked his paws, and the next moment, he pounced on Caitlin who was not far away like a shadow!

Wei stood in front of Caitlin without hesitation, swung a heavy steel hammer she brought along from the police station, and smashed it.

Her hammer hit perfectly, but the transmitted tremor was like hitting a wall.

Wei was thrown to the ground in an instant, and the heavy collision with the side of the bridge almost shattered her internal organs, while Silko looked at the girl under him and sneered in a vague voice:

"Have you become the dog of the Piltover? Vander would be proud of you."

An angry Wei wanted to fight back, but the pain piercing through her heart and lungs made her speechless, and just when Silko was about to liquidate the traitor, the hook and lock flying from the side made him jump backwards to avoid it. Camille's slash aimed at the neck.

"Let's continue the unfinished business of the year!"

Shirko took out another shot and stuck it on his arm, laughing wildly

......

Evolution, growth, perfection, disease-free, immortality, eternity.

Abandon this unnecessary flesh and blood, abandon this useless emotion, metal is protection, form determines function——

Get rid of this stinky skin! ! !

The boundless darkness passed slowly, and the nightmare that seemed longer than any nightmare just faded away.

When Victor got off the operating table, he felt like a psychedelic dream, long and unreasonable...

Next to the operating table, the assistant Skye was lying on the edge of the bed and fell asleep. Victor picked up the windbreaker next to her and put it on her body.

Then, he found a mirror for himself.

The figure reflected in the mirror is a... something that can hardly be called a human being.

He looked like a man in metal armor, or a walking machine.It is very different from the previous Victor.

80.00% of the body has been mechanized, the internal organs have been completely replaced with powerful hex augments, and half of the heart has been replaced with a powerful hex core.

He dismantled his own blood vessels and replaced them with tough and contractile soft metal tubes. Its operation process will be controlled by the frequency pacemaker connected to Hex's core.

However, what is already flowing in it is no longer blood, but agitated cooling fluid, which flows and circulates so that the hex augmentation body and core in the body will not fall into a hot state due to overwork.

The muscles were replaced by more powerful metal muscle groups, the bones were coated with a layer of liquid metal that would automatically adapt, not to mention the skin, and even the head, he had also remodeled.

He didn't completely remove his brain, but he did work on the emotional part of the brain.

Sensibility is a superfluous and luxurious thing, maybe he still needs some.However, it is not advisable to allow excess emotional secretion to affect actions.

He looked at his palm, and what could barely be called an eye reflected his steel body.

He has no fear, no disgust, no abnormal judgment beyond reason.In other words, when the remaining part of the brain starts to secrete hormones that are no longer needed because of these emotions, the equipment he implanted in the answer will dilute this part of the hormone.

The part of the emotion that surged just now may be the panic and disgust of Victor as a human being towards the current state.

Or is it all because of it?Victor pressed on his heart, there was no beating there, only the core of Hex working slowly and quietly.

Maybe the once weak Victor couldn't survive such a crazy and terrifying operation, maybe he would choose to stay halfway through the operation because of fear and self-denial.

However, the beating gems, the whispering singing voice, and the surging energy that caressed his whole body allowed him to complete the renewal of his body without fear.

A metal body is more suitable for his form. Isn't the evolution of creatures an adaptation to the environment and the status quo?He never needed to be afraid, he just got an evolution for himself.

Victor faintly thought that he did nothing in silence, but came to his workbench and continued his work silently and efficiently.

When Skye woke up from her sleep, the empty operating table in front of her made her panic.But soon, the sound of heavy footsteps from behind made her turn her head immediately.

She saw a piece of living steel, a walking machine.

The dark golden metal body seemed to be wearing a thick layer of armor. Only the eyes of the metal mask that covered the face revealed the golden red light of the molten fire. Shoulders flaring.

He held a metal scepter in his hand, and the hex gem embedded in the top sparked light blue energy arcs in the air. With the fluttering dark red cloak and silent posture, Skye felt that he was like a storybook The prophet in general.

"Let's go." Victor said calmly, holding the scepter in his hand

"What are we going to do?" Skye asked with some fear, but also some expectation

"Destroy, then improve."

47. Break

For Silko, the last memory on the bridge is that ignominious failure.

At the last moment of everything, when he was about to successfully invade the city, his friend, his leader, and his mentor betrayed him here.

Because of that ridiculous pity awakened at the last moment, they abandoned the fruits of victory won by their compatriots with blood, and retreated at the last step.

Then, he was drowned in the river by van der's throat.What an icy river it was, bone-chilling cold, the pain of suffocation accompanied by the touch of the icy river water made him unforgettable, and even now Shirko could never forget that coldness and suffocation.

And tonight...it seems like nothing has changed.

"Your futility is disappointing."

Camille said with her unchanging pride, she stepped on Shirko, who had almost turned into a beast, and hovered her sharp right leg against Shirko's neck, as long as she gently As soon as he exerted force, he would be decapitated.

"I only saw a self-righteous crazy woman, and a group of idiots who think they control their destiny!"

Silko looked at Camille, Jess and the others without fear, and spat with a sneer

"You thought you crushed Zaun's resistance? No, this is just the beginning! You thought this was the end of the war, and this is just now..."

"You will be forgotten before you die."

With a swipe, Camille cut off Silko's head without hesitation, and with the flying splash of blood, Caitlin, who was taking care of the unconscious Wei, opened her eyes wide.

"Why kill him here! He... If he is alive, he can..."

"Are you ordering me? Girl of the Gilaman family."

Camille shook her right leg lightly to shake off the blood stains on the blade. She looked at Caitlin, who was somewhat indignant, and said lightly.

"Watch your manners, unless you want me to discipline you."

"Caitlin didn't mean that! Camille... Ma'am, we thought that if Silko was still alive, we might be able to find out who was behind the attack on the Parliament and save Piltover from an unnecessary war." war."

Jess immediately came up to smooth things over. Although he couldn't bear to see such a brutal and bloody killing method, he didn't think there was anything wrong with Shirko's death.

"You thought it was all over?"

Camille turned her eyes to Jess, and said lightly

"You are an outstanding inventor, a politician who is in need of growth, and a very unqualified soldier. You lack a sense of danger. The problem of Piltover cannot be solved by killing such a small gangster."

"You mean...Noxus and Demacia? Or the mad magician?"

"These are all external problems." Camille said lightly

"This idiot is right about one thing, the war will not end here, and now is just the beginning..."

Before Camille finished speaking, dull explosions were heard from several directions in Piltover at the same time.Jess' face changed slightly, and he looked in the direction, and he figured it out instantly.

"It's Screaming... Someone wants to cut off the connection between Piltover and Zaun!"

Since the day of Zaun's sinking, the only remaining passages linking the two cities are the four screeching elevators and the only bridge leading to the upper gate of Zaun.

Although the two cities are one, they have already been cut into two parts, not only spiritually, but also physically.

"It's not stupid." Camille raised her chin slightly with appreciation, and then she looked at the other side of the bridge in Zaun

"Then you should also know that if you don't cut off the bridge, blowing up the four elevators will be useless. These gangsters are nothing more than cannon fodder. The real master... is coming."

Along the gray mist of Zaun, a tall figure walked slowly with a blazing light like a furnace. The only thing that could be heard on the bridge was the sound of heavy steel hitting the stone bridge.

Riding the dark haze, two figures stepped out of it, one tall and one short.

Jess froze for a moment, then his expression became unbelievable

"You, you are Victor?!"

Although it was almost impossible to recognize any resemblance between the 'monster' and his sickly friend, it seemed clear when he began to see Skye by his side.

"Long time no see, Senator Taris."

Victor said lightly, his eyes rested on Jess's Hammer of Mercury, and he shook his head slightly

"Obviously you didn't seize the time that belongs to you, or do you still insist on your idea that the technology is immature and you can't use these semi-finished products?"
