The Mage Behind the Scenes From the Twin Cities

Looking at the bustling leather city landscape outside the window, Victor felt:

"I've always felt that when I have the power to change the world, neither I nor Zaun need to be at the mercy of others."

"This idea coincides with our Noxus, I think you will like it there." Ryan expressed his agreement.

Victor smiled wryly and shook his head, saying word by word:

"Politics, prejudice, magic, force, technology, intelligence... Countless talents come together to make Noxus. In Piltover, all I see is prejudice and politics."

The mechanical car drives near the bridge between Zaun and Pittsburgh, and the commotion caused by the magistrate makes Victor gloomy.

Just in the morning when Jess was a member of parliament, the council announced an order to investigate Zaun thoroughly. A large number of law enforcement officers poured into Zaun with gas masks, and you don't have to think about how chaotic there is now.

At that time, he completely gave up on his partner. They can work together on research, but the other will never understand the pain of the people in the lower city.

Prejudice made it impossible for Mrs. Piltover to resolve the root cause of the conflict between the two cities, and she would only rely on repression to discuss matters.

By the bridge, the mechanical car did not stop, but Katarina dexterously entered the car.

"I've never seen such a chaotic place, there is no fighting with guns, but there is a disgusting smell of despair."

Katarina didn't mean to shy away from Victor at all, and her expression was full of disgust.

"It doesn't seem like you had a good experience there, Miss Katerina." Ryan's expression didn't change at all. "However, I think you should have found a good place for my meeting with Sirco."

"The roof of Forgan's Tavern, where the terrain is relatively high, is now Sirco's lair. It is said that it used to be Vander's site." Katerina turned her attention to Victor, trying to verify the accuracy of this information.

"Indeed...ahem...that's the tallest building in Zaun, but it's also the most chaotic place right now."

As soon as the car entered Zaun, the foul air entered the car, causing Victor to cough.

But he still insisted on looking up and down Ryan and Katarina, but found that they still didn't change their faces.

"You seem to be surprised? Weak scientist, some parts of Noxus are a hundred times more uncomfortable than here." Katarina sneered.

"The performance of the Tallis congressman at that time should not be very good."

Ryan suddenly made a sound. He seemed to understand something, and his eyes were full of interest.

"It's nothing, everyone has their own aspirations. This is the real Zaun. The air is filled with the stench of chemicals, but compared to mines and chemical factories, the smell here is simply too good." Victor wanted to change the subject.

"Look, you have a chance to change this. And I believe in one sentence." Seeing that the other party was not very interested, Ryan comforted.

"What?" Victor asked curiously.

"The purpose of our knowledge is not to escape from a poor hometown, but to keep our hometown from poverty."

Katarina and Victor stayed at the same time, but compared to Katarina who quickly agreed with her face fervently, Victor seemed to be caught in it and kept talking about something.

The mechanical car ran very smoothly all the way, and it still moved forward unimpeded on the muddy roads of Zaun. This car was designed and manufactured by Victor, and it was originally considered to be used in Zaun.

It's a pity that the people who can own it are people from Picheng, and those people don't come here.

"Is this the Forgan Tavern? It's really unique that it can be opened in the center of Zaun."

After getting out of the car, Ryan admired the mottled lights of the tavern, the old building but the rebellious feeling decorated with all kinds of graffiti.

"This was the safest place to be when the last leader of Zaun, Vander, was here. Sadly, this will be different. But his statue is still there, and every day someone lights his pipe for him, as if in pay homage to his dead soul."

Victor was one position behind Ryan, pointing to a statue not far away, doing his duty as a guide.

"It seems that Shirko has an unusual relationship with him." Katerina remembered Ryan's words not long ago, with a mocking expression on her face.

what is this? Killed the boss of the past with your own hands, and still have some kind of longing every day?

Ryan glanced at her and said meaningfully: "If one day the dagger in your hand pierced the neck of General Kekao, you might have a similar feeling."

"That guy has already abandoned me, if I have one day..." Katerina retorted irritably, but her voice became smaller and smaller, and finally her eyes were melancholy: "I don't know..."

At this moment, Ryan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked towards the entrance of Forgan's Tavern.

"You're the big guy from Noxus? You look weak."

A sturdy black-skinned woman stood there, looking drunk, and saw Ryan with a thin and aristocratic style, with a rebellious face on her face.

Swish!

Katerina's face turned into frost again, turned into a shadow, and in an instant she came to sit in front of the woman, folded the woman's newly raised hand with an elbow, and placed the sharp dagger on the woman's throat.

"Watch your words, idiot."

"Don't scare people, she is Sirco's subordinate, and she has to lead us."

Ryan's expression was still flat, and he stepped over the woman with Victor, who was also unmoved.

The knife was put down from her neck. The woman seemed a little dissatisfied, but she was afraid of the dagger in Katarina's hand that had not been put down, so she had to lead the way with a gloomy face.

After a few climbing stairs, they reached the roof of Forgan's Tavern, a wide platform.

The woman sneered at Victor, who was panting, probably thinking that the Noxians were nothing more than that, stepped forward and said something in the ear of a short, thin man.

The man turned his head, it was a very scary face, only the right half of the face was intact, the left half was full of wrinkles, the sclera of the left eye was black, and the eyeball was even more orange-red.

He greeted him with a smile on his face, and his hoarse voice revealed kindness:

"I'm Shirko, and I welcome Noxian friends to Zaun. My stupid subordinates are not well entertained, and I hope for forgiveness. I don't think Noxian bigwigs will talk to us, the bottom city. Comparing."

Ryan looked at him with a smile, his eyes suddenly flashed with a deep blue light, and it seemed that some kind of rune flashed away.

This gesture made the woman just now nervously on guard, but Hilko still didn't change his face.

His eyes continued to shine with magical blue light, and Ryan said softly:

"There are traces of low-light injections on the body many times. Recently, the right leg was injected 3 times, the left arm was injected twice, and the right arm and left leg were injected once each. The injection method is very unprofessional, as if it was specially designed to torture you. The left half of the face Distortion has occurred, and he needs to inject low-light from the left eye several times a day to maintain his life. There is a severe addiction phenomenon, as long as the low-light is injected every 3 hours, the whole body will feel uncomfortable, and the body will collapse. "

After speaking, he lowered his head and looked down at Shirko, the corners of his mouth raised slightly:

"Am I right? Mr. Silko."

After he finished speaking, not to mention the shocking Shirko and his subordinates, even Victor and Katerina who knew he was a mage were surprised.

Shir Keqiang laughed twice, his face regained his composure, and he took two deep breaths and said:

"As expected of the Meredith mage from Noxus, I don't know what your instructions are to me?"

After working in Zaun for so long, he was all too familiar with this set.

If it is really an enemy, there is no need to tell him so much.

When he came up to reveal the secret of his body, it was obviously to show his own strength. This was to clearly tell him that the strengths of the two sides were not equal.

In the face of such a figure who even surpassed Piltover, he didn't have much choice but to succumb.

What's more, he and the other party have no conflict of interest.

"What do you think of Piltover's new Senator Jess Tallis?" Ryan asked suddenly.

Shirko was a little surprised by this question. He carefully watched Ryan from the corner of his eye, and kept thinking in his heart, trying to find the answer the other party wanted.

On the other side, Katerina looked indifferent and didn't care about the conversation between the two people around her. Instead, she fixed her eyes on Shirko's subordinates. The other party inserted a few tubes of purple liquid into the robotic arm of her left hand, giving her a provocation. eyes.

Victor kept his eyes on Shirko, and it was difficult for him to associate him with the leader of Zaun. He knew Sirco, a hard-working entrepreneur in Zaun, well-known in Pittsburgh, and he didn't look like an underground emperor by any means.

He was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Sirco was the source of Zaun's recent chaos.

Shirco pondered for a long time, he really couldn't see anything from Ryan's face, so he could only say truthfully according to what he thought:

"In my eyes, although Jess Tallis has a lot of talent, he is a typical Shangcheng person. He was brought up by the ignorant education that Shangcheng deliberately guided, and he is just like a blank sheet of paper."
