The Glory of Noxus

[Type MK6: Earth-Drilling Robot]

The black curtain slid down, and the Hextech robot developed by Professor Heimerdinger appeared in front of everyone.

The whole body of the earth-drilling robot is silver, with a metallic luster. It is both sturdy and full of a cold sense of technology.

At the front of the machine is a huge silver drill bit with threads, sharp and hard, as if it can penetrate any obstacle.

Behind the drill bit is the part where the boom and the frame are connected.

This is the most important part of the earth-drilling robot, responsible for providing strong power and stability.

Finally, there is the metal body of the earth-penetrating robot, which is about three people tall, huge and heavy.

There were subtle stone wall marks left on the metal body when passing through the safe passage.

From the appearance of the robot in front of him, it can be seen that Piltover went all out for this operation in Stillwater Prison.

Buzz! Buzz!

Wearing a blue uniform and gold-rimmed glasses, the Hextech inventor walked up to the earth-drilling robot and input commands skillfully.

Following his operation, the earth-penetrating robot started slowly, made a low sound, and drove to the location of Huo Jixing.

Whoops! Whoops!

The Hex core roared, the silver drill rotated, and gusts of wind appeared.

Until the speed reached its extreme, the hurricane swept through the low prison, causing flying sand and rocks.

The members of the police team stepped aside one after another, away from the sand and drills.

They closely watched the movements of the earth-penetrating robot, hoping that it would successfully find the location of the hidden experimental base.

Caitlin and Camille also paid attention, waiting for the final result.

Click! Click! Click!

The ground-drilling robot continued to roar, cutting into the specially treated hard ground.

Fine stones fell like raindrops, covering the surrounding ground.

Just a moment.

A hole appeared on the ground, and more and more rocks and dust were piled up.

But the hole is getting bigger, but the desired experimental base location has not yet been found.

Huo Jixing looked calm and looked at the earth-drilling robot in front of him, marveling at the changes brought about by Hex Technology.

Caitlin was a little anxious.

After being entrusted by Jace, she knew the importance of this operation and the urgency of time.

Looking at the location of the earth-penetrating robot, she became somewhat suspicious of Huo Jixing.

Perhaps the location of the experimental base is not down there at all.

The ground-drilling robot was running at full speed, and the fine gravel and dust it brought up felt a little damp.

Buzz!

Just when Caitlin was suspicious, the earth-drilling robot suddenly made a sharp sound.

Immediately afterwards, the drill bit seemed to have touched something hard, making a metallic impact sound.

Caitlin's expression changed, and she immediately walked to the side of the earth-boring robot.

The Hextech inventor shut down the earth-drilling robot at the right moment, causing it to stop where it was.

Through the hole cut by the drill bit, a thick metal sandwich panel can be seen.

Camille nodded slightly, signaling Caitlin to come back first, and then asked the Hextech inventor to continue starting the earth-drilling robot.

As the drill bit rotated, vibrations came from the underground. The metal sandwich panel could no longer hold on and quickly shattered, revealing a hidden dark passage.

"I'll go down first."

Camille walked to the entrance of the cave and spoke softly to Huo Jixing and Caitlin.

Immediately, the Hex device glowing blue on her thigh fired a hook that could be attached to the terrain.

The steel hook quickly shot to the bottom of the hole and attached tightly to the solid wall.

Camille grabbed the hook, pulled it gently, and slid down lightly.

After a while.

Camille's calm voice came.

"It's safe, you can come down."

After hearing Camille's words, Huo Jixing and Caitlin looked at each other, nodded slowly, and prepared to enter the cave entrance.

In the dark passage.

There are lights on the dark top, like stars dotting the night sky, dispelling the surrounding darkness.

The space inside the passage is surprisingly wide, allowing four or five people to walk side by side.

After landing.

Huo Jixing was looking around, waiting for Urgot to come down.

It was because Urgot was too big, and the hole was dug by the earth-drilling robot, which delayed it for a while.

When Urgot came down, Caitlin and Camille walked towards him.

"We have to be careful."

Camille looked at the passage extending to an unknown place, feeling a little uneasy.

"This should be the secret experimental base of the forces behind the Eye of Zaun. The danger is essential."

Huo Jixing nodded and agreed.

He looked up at the entrance of the cave and saw many members of the police team staying on the ground.

On the one hand, it is to leave a safe escape route and ensure that you can leave quickly when encountering danger.

On the other hand, it also protects the earth-penetrating robot from being destroyed when left unattended.

Dim yellow lights flickered in the passage.

The group stayed quiet and walked along the smooth and thick road.

In the corners of the metal walls on both sides, you can still see moss and mold intertwined.

The figures of the people also cast long shadows under the light, which gradually changed with their steps.

Huo Jixing was always alert to the movements around him, and his pupils were filled with red-golden light.

He saw many clouds rising, but they were far away and no longer nearby.

At the same time, he also discovered that the metal walls in the passage had been specially treated.

Spiritual power cannot extend too far, at most about ten meters.

Indistinctly, Huo Jixing heard the sound of water flowing.

Then he immediately thought of the damp stones and dust brought up by the drilling robot before.

"This passage is built on the bottom of the Pilt River." Huo Jixing sighed.

"No, that's not right."

He rejected his inner thoughts.

"To be precise, it should be that this secret experimental base directly broke through the bottom of the Jingshui Prison and went deep into the river."

"And such a huge project was concealed from the Piltover Council. It seems that someone inside helped to cover it up."

As they went deeper.

Camille seemed to have noticed this, and a cold color appeared in her eyes.

With her keen perception, she observed that the air in the passage was a little humid, and saw water stains on the metal walls on both sides.

"Pilt River!"

After crossing a corner of the passage, everyone's vision suddenly became clear.

In front of the group, four almost identical passages appeared.

In front of each passage, there was a heavy dark gray iron door, blocking their way.

Looking closely, the dark gray iron door was extremely smooth, with no trace left.

Behind it, there was a faint sound of gears running.

Huo Jixing's eyes flickered, and he looked at the flashing red light above the iron door with a sense of awareness, and waved his hand gently.

Buzz! Buzz!

Red-gold flames appeared out of thin air.

Then, they separated and shot out like arrows, falling on the red light on the iron door.

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

The red light shattered and turned into a piece of debris scattered on the ground.

The heavy dark gray iron door also made a violent sound under the burning power of the flame, and bursts of thick smoke rose.

This meant that their internal defense line had been breached and burned to ashes.

Huo Jixing's action quickly attracted everyone's attention.

However, after seeing Huo Jixing's half-smile expression, they fell silent.

Huo Jixing did not say anything, standing with Urgot, waiting quietly.

Camille's eyes flickered, and a hint of hesitation flashed across her hard and cold face, which finally turned into determination.

"Let's act separately."

After seeing Huo Jixing's extraordinary strength, she had some concerns in her heart.

And as the chief spy and decision-maker of the Philos family, Camille was also very interested in the Source Project.

Otherwise, she would not have personally participated in this operation.

"Okay!"

Caitlin also agreed.

Before she entered the Stillwater Prison, the Gilaman family and Jace had talked to her separately, and the content was very simple.

Get the data and information in the experimental base.

Caitlin was very confident about her own strength, so she nodded in agreement.

"I have no problem either." Huo Jixing's eyes moved, and he answered.

After a brief discussion.

Camille and Caitlin, each leading a police team, entered the two passages on the right.

"Sir, we?"

Urgot gently moved his body, looking at the remaining two passages on the left, and cast his eyes on Huo Jixing.

"I'll go left and you right."

Huo Jixing answered casually, and then he seemed to remember something and patted Urgot's armor.

"Don't be brave. If there is danger, prioritize your own safety."

In his field of vision, many clouds were entangled together. It seemed that the situation in the four passages was similar.

Urgot nodded, moved his armored giant legs, and entered the selected passage.

Huo Jixing was very confident in Urgot's strength. There were not many people in Piltover and Zaun who could take his life.

Then he walked to the leftmost passage.

In the dark passage.

The light above his head became dimmer and dimmer, and the humid air was mixed with a foul smell.

Huo Jixing raised his eyebrows slightly, and the red-gold light in his eyes became more and more intense.

This passage seemed a little unusual.

After walking a hundred steps, the stench became stronger.

Huo Jixing came to a wide square filled with all kinds of waste and garbage.

Some were rotten and smelly, some were contaminated by chemicals, and some glowed with purple light.

These garbage items piled up like a mountain, almost filling the square.

The many smells mixed together, making it hard to breathe.

"Is this a garbage dump?" Huo Jixing was a little disappointed.

He looked at the dirty garbage dump in front of him, smiled helplessly, and prepared to leave.

Boom!

Suddenly.

In the dim garbage dump.

The dazzling lights turned on, illuminating the surrounding environment like daylight.

In the corner, the robots that picked up and decomposed the garbage raised their red eyes and aimed at Huo Jixing.

They seemed to be receiving or executing some kind of instructions, and their movements began to become agile.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

More than a dozen copper robots ran like wild giants, trampling the garbage on the ground and rushing towards the only human in the field.

Behind them, there were robots with arms turned into gun barrels, turning the muzzles and pointing them at Huo Jixing.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The gunfire roared and flames shot out.

The hot bullets fired one by one, following a fixed trajectory, passed the copper robots in front and shot towards Huo Jixing.

[Garbage Dump Guard]!

[Ballistic Robot]!

In this inconspicuous garbage dump, two robots of different models were bursting with the light of technology.

Huo Jixing looked at the army of robots rushing over, with a look of surprise, and then reacted.

"Our tracks are completely exposed to each other's sight."

Seeing this, he shrugged his shoulders, stretched out his left hand, pointed it at the robot army in front of him, and stroked it gently.

Buzz!

The red-gold flame instantly emerged and turned into a cold sword light, passing by the garbage dump guards at high speed.

I saw these garbage dump guards split into two and fell to the ground under the light of the flaming sword. The scene was extremely tragic.

Just finished dealing with the junkyard guard in front of me.

The rapid-fire bullets fell like a torrential rain, dense and rapid.

They followed the calculated trajectory, leaving Huo Jixing without any room to dodge.

"But why should I dodge?"

Huo Jixing laughed softly, knowing that these robot armies were just here to test his strength.

[Suzaku·Flame Flurry]!

Huo Jixing's eyes narrowed.

The Nanli fire in front of him, which had not yet been extinguished, seemed to have received his call, rising into the sky and burning brightly.

Fire also has its beauty.

At this moment, the red-gold fire was particularly dazzling in the garbage dump, like the arrival of the blazing sun, dispelling all darkness.

The flame that continues to burn is like the brush in the hand of an artist, turning into a rain of fire all over the sky, facing the incoming bullets.

boom!

As the Nanli Fire ignited, everything in the garbage dump was violently burned.

Whether it was the army of robots or the rubbish piled up in the square, they were quickly reduced to ashes by the fireworks.

The surrounding walls were also affected.

Under the high temperature, it melted and solidified, melted again, and solidified again, making the originally flat wall surface become uneven and covered with traces of scorch and distortion.

Huo Jixing stood on the edge, looking at the completely empty garbage dump, and his spiritual power swept away.

Unfortunately, nothing was gained.

Apart from two different models of robots and junk, there wasn't anything valuable hidden.

He withdrew his gaze and walked straight towards the twisted wall.

The passage Urgot chose was right next to him.

Now that the robot army in front of him has been dealt with, Huo Jixing decided to go to Urgot to have a look, maybe there will be new discoveries.

The solid wall made of metal melted like ice in the face of Nanli's fire.

Huo Jixing followed Urgot's clouds and moved forward with firm steps.

Within the thick walls, he saw many intricate metal pipes, with some alchemical liquid remaining inside.

Occasionally he would see the ventilation conversion device, making a low humming sound in the dim environment.

It can be seen that a lot of effort was put into the construction of this experimental base.

Go forward in time.

Urgot walked slowly along the passage he chose with a solemn expression.

The chain gun in his hand was raised early, making a trembling sound, always waiting for the opportunity to pour gunfire.

"here it is?"

With the help of the shining light, Urgot looked around and frowned.

He saw traces of graffiti on the metal walls on both sides.

These graffiti are messy, some seem to be weird symbols, and some look like random lines.

In addition, there are some residual battle marks, such as bullet holes and impact dents, and scratches from swords and axes.

The environment is also slightly dirty, with broken mechanical parts scattered on the ground.

Urgot also saw human skeletons in some corners.

Maybe for a while, the bones became pale and fragile, silently telling the horror and despair of this place.

Urgot narrowed his eyes and thought to himself: This place is less like a laboratory and more like a mental hospital.

Hearing the movement from ahead, Urgot raised his chain gun and grinned.

"I detect the presence of scum."
