Jano couldn't believe his ears, and he decided to check it out for himself.

After asking the waiter to hand out the electric blankets in stock, Jeno went straight to the clock tower.

Standing on a high place to see farther, standing on the clock tower and looking out from the railing, the scene in front of you really confirmed the words of the guards.

In the north and south of the city, there is only one canyon apart, but they are two completely different scenes.

The roads north of the city are full of refugees, not only around the Blue Smoke Manor, but also in every street and alley.

In contrast, the south of the city is an empty city.

The lush vegetation covers the entire southern city district, with few tall shrubs, mostly vines and thorns, spreading along the road, knocking down street lamps, spreading to rooftops, and unscrupulously breaking windows into all kinds of buildings, tearing people's homes to pieces.

Even the old people who have lived here for half a century cannot recognize these once familiar streets and alleys.

Looming forest beasts hunting and foraging in the upheaval city, creating primitive killings, undercurrents surging, and crises lurking under the eaves, stifling people's hopes of returning home to the invisible.

The current Nancheng District feels like a dangerous lost ancient city, forming a clear contrast with the Beicheng District, which is full of technology.

Separated by a bridge, there is a world of difference.

"Why is this ......happening?"

The cold wind blew, and Jeno's lips and teeth kept fighting.

It's not that the body is cold, but that the heart is cold.

He knew that he had a lot to do with being homeless and displaced in half of the city.

If he didn't do anything, the vegetation under Zyra's control would invade Piltover within a week, so he chose to follow Camille's orders and set fire to the mountain.

However, this act not only failed to delay the invasion, but instead caused Zyra to counterattack, accelerating the process of the week to be completed in one day, resulting in the residents of the south of the city not even having time to prepare, and evacuated the south city in a hurry, and a large number of resources were not brought out in time, which further aggravated the population burden of the north city.

And the reason is on this fire! Flame may be very effective for ordinary plants, but for Zyra, it is nothing more than nourishment.

He remembered the legend of Zyra—

During the Rune Wars, in the dense forests of the southern Kumangu region, between the two great rivers that divide Shurima in the east, hidden the legendary Garden of Jielu, where elemental magic transformed the land in strange and impermanent ways, nurturing ferocious carnivorous plants.

This Jielu Garden is the predecessor of Zyra.

At that time, a female mage strayed into the garden with her minions, and the garden greeted them with thorny thorns, while the female mage used rune magic to create a powerful explosion.

Then, a runaway spark ignited the diffuse methane, causing the explosion to wipe out all living beings within a radius of miles.

Hundreds of years have passed......

The surface of the land that was once a battlefield was empty and dead, and the energy of the explosion had long since precipitated and condensed into the soil.

Nourished by the demonic explosion, one pod after another swelled open, pulsating with unnatural vitality. Finally, a creature crawled out, gasping for breath and full of doubt.

She is the reborn Zyra, a hybrid of a human and a plant with an alluring appearance.

Thinking back to the legend, the explosion caused by runic magic was the key to turning Jessoro's Garden into Zyra.

So, Zyra is not afraid of fire and magic.

The ashes are her nourishment, and every time she burns, she can break and stand up, and promote the rapid growth of plants and animals.

And Jeno, without careful analysis, rashly used a fire attack, causing a backlash from Zyra.

So he felt very remorseful, if it weren't for him, the south of the city would not have been invaded so quickly......

"You can't be blamed for this......" A gentle breeze blew by, not with the cold of late autumn, but with the warmth of spring.

"What's the wind...... Blowing you here......" A full of loss welled up in his throat, and Jeno's voice was familiar.

can appear by his side quietly like this, except for Camille, there is only Jana, and the voices of the two are very recognizable and can be easily distinguished.

"Even if you hadn't set the fire, the rainforest would have invaded Piltover sooner or later."

The call of the refugees on the ground drew Jana to her powerlessness as she looked at the entrenched plants.

It's not poisonous gas or smog, it's something that the wind can blow away.

She circled for a week, and then she saw Jeno who was secretly sad, and she couldn't bear it, so she posted it over to comfort him.

It is also her responsibility to guide believers out of the low points of life.

"But I have caused the people to not even have time to put on their clothes, and they will starve and freeze in the wind, and half of the city will fall, and it will not be long before the thorns of Zyra will reach to the north of the city, and all the citizens will be forced to flee!"

Jeno clenched his fists, knuckles squeezing and gurgling.

Colin's Workshop, Ezreal's house, Caitlyn's house, and Blue Smoke Manor, all of which are north of the city, have not yet fallen, but no one has been able to keep their homes under Zyra's invasion.

"You call that rainforest consciousness Zyra, don't you?" Jana sat on the fence in front of Jeno, shielding him from the cold wind, and watched him intently.

She also sensed that there was a will controlling the rainforest, similar to her controlling the storm. Although the existence of the other party is not as pure as her, its strength is far stronger than her now.

But that didn't stop her from getting to know Zyra.

"Actually, it's not that bad, if you want to invade the north of the city, that Jie...... Zyra...... Two lines of defense need to be crossed. ”

"What do you mean?" Jeno looked up and looked at Jeno for answers in her eyes, but all he could see was his own face, tears in the corners of his eyes.

"Don't let self-blame blind you, look at the boundaries of vegetation." Cana blew into Jeno's eyes, fading the tears from his eyes.

Jeno did what Cana wanted...... He saw that where the vegetation was covered, it only reached the edge of the canyon, and it did not spread downward.

"Why didn't she invade under the canyon?" Cana spoke again.

"Below the canyon is Zu'an, and it's all polluted, and there is no grass...... "Jeno immediately realized what Cana meant, and he said excitedly:

"Vegetation can't invade Zu'an, which is heavily polluted, so there's no way to invade the north of the city!"

"She's found a solution, her hand is reaching north of the city through the canyon bridge, but we have a second line of defense."

"The Gate of the Sun that connects Shurima and Valoran!" Jano interrupted Jana, he was so excited!

The Sungate Gate is the only gateway for Zyra to enter Valoran, if it were blown up......

Zyra would never be able to cross the wide channel, and the salty waters would stop her from making her way north.

The fall of the south of the city has become a fact, and if there is an opportunity to atone for his sins and keep the north of the city, he will definitely not miss it.

He wanted to inform Camille right now, so that they could hurry to the Sungate and plant explosives to cut off the only way for Zyra to invade.

But before that, he still has a few important things to ask Cana, who is not on call, and he must seize the opportunity to use this full-map radar.

"That's right! The police station is ...... in the south of the city"

Jana knew what he wanted to ask, and before he could finish asking, she gave the answer:

"Caitlin is fine, she's comforting the refugees right now."

"Well, there's another important thing - have you seen a void creature wandering around the city?"

Jana closed her eyes and sensed it, and shook her head:

"There's no sign of a void creature, but the Vastayas do have a few."
