At the junction of Zaun and Piltover, Elise, who had changed into a beige dress and pleated dress, slowly stepped into Zaun's territory.

She hummed and chirped along the way, as if she were humming an ancient Ionian ballad.

From time to time, when she saw the scene of undead chasing humans on the street, Elise blinked, a little surprised. Why don't the Zauns set up protective shields like Lady Piltworth and let the human cup demons mutilate?

After walking a little further, she saw a group of Zuans rushing in one direction after another. Driven by curiosity, Elise's figure disappeared in an instant. When she reappeared, it was in an open square.

In the center of the square, a bald man in a white coat with glasses was excitedly speaking.

After listening for a while, she understood why the Zuan people didn't set up protective shields. It turned out that this man named Dr. Hart had invented a device that could turn Zaun into a magic-free territory.

"Nonsense."

She believed in suppressing magic, but it was almost impossible to cut off magic in Valoran, a continent rich in magic. Pouting her lips and spitting softly, Elise vanished once more, appearing at the entrance to Zaun's dark, winding underground waterways.

The disgusting stench made her brow frown slightly, and her mood became bad. But remembering what Hammerstone had asked her to do, she decided to go inside and have a look.

In this way, Elise's figure gradually disappeared into the dark and narrow underground waterway.

……

The streets of Piltover are filled with shadow creatures of all colors, greedily searching the city, trying to find survivors who didn't follow Caitlin and the others in time.

Under their search, they really found many survivors who stayed in the hut, and greedily enjoyed the human delicacy.

Looking down from directly above Phi City, the eye of the storm in the center of the business district is shrinking at a visible rate. Over time, the eye of the storm disappeared into the city entirely, leaving only the disorganized neighborhood after the storm hustle and bustle.

His gaze dropped again, and Irelia, Ye Feng, Yasuo, and Jinx, who were holding the sleeping Cana, were standing around the corner of a street.

Irelia stared at Ye Feng with a serious expression: "Are you sure you want to go to Zu'an now?"

"Well, if nothing else, Caitlin and they have already arrived at the base, and there is no need for me to go again, I want to go directly to Zu'an, complete the task early and come back early." Ye Feng nodded firmly in his eyes, expressing his determination.

Her eyes slowly enlarged, Irelia pursed her lips and smiled with relief: "Since you have thought it through, then I wish you good luck in advance, I can't help you on the next road."

Ye Feng was slightly moved in his heart, he could see that Irelia really regarded him as a friend.

"Brother, you have to be careful."

Listening to Jinx's worried and reluctant words before parting, Ye Feng grinned and said, "Don't worry, after going to Ionia, you have to listen to your sister Suona more, don't mess around!"

As he spoke, he threw the demigod cannon to Jinx, which was fastened to the keyring.

Glancing at Yasuo deeply, Ye Feng opened his mouth to say something to ease the contradiction between Yasuo and Ruiwen, but after thinking about it, he still didn't say it.

With a long sigh, in order not to think about things that would affect his mood, under the eyes of Irelia and the others, he ran in the direction of the east without looking back.

……

Walking in the ruined Hex Research Base, Caitlyn held her father's corpse as if she had lost her soul. If it weren't for the bunch of survivors behind her, she would have burst into tears.

Behind her, Vi gently patted her on the shoulder, signaling her to mourn and change.

Ezreal and the others could only sigh silently from the sidelines, unable to do anything about Caitlyn at this time.

Holding back the tears that were about to overflow her eyes, Caitlyn took a deep breath and suppressed her voice, "Come with me, let's go to the underground construction site to see if there are any other survivors."

With that, Caitlyn handed her father's body to Vi and rushed to the front. It's not that she doesn't want to hug, it's that she's afraid that if she continues like this, she will really cry.

took Wei and the others who walked in the front to the underground construction site by elevator, Caitlin did not wait for the survivors to be divided into several batches, but took Wei and the others to search for the underground construction site.

The depths of the cavern, the dilapidated control room, the occasional rubble sliding off the stone walls, and the incomplete corpses of the researchers and technicians lying on the ground chilled Caitlyn's heart.

She soon found her mother's body, and looking at her mother's corpse, which had no heart like her father, Caitlyn finally couldn't control her emotions and cried out.

Silently accompanied by Vi and the others, Caitlyn cried for a long time before she stopped, and temporarily handed over her mother's body to Ezreal's arms. Under the puzzled gaze of the crowd, she pulled a Hex blaster from the keyring and tossed it aside, causing everyone to back off.

She detonated the bomb only after everyone had evacuated from the blasting range.

Rumble!

With a loud bang, accompanied by blackened smoke, a large hole was blown out of the place where they were standing, and the huge flying battleship below gradually came into their eyes.

"Oriana, are you down there?"

Wiping her red and swollen eyes, Caitlyn cried out. When all the forbidden stones on the surface of the stone wall below faded, Catelyn, who had not seen a response, jumped down.

Falling aboard the flying battleship, Catelyn swept her eyes and spotted the sleeping Oriana.

"Orianna ......"

Hugging Orianna tightly, Caitlyn rubbed her eyes that were about to overflow with tears and called out.

At her call, a dazed Orianna awoke from her slumber. When Orianna saw her, her face was full of guilt: "Woo woo...... I'm sorry, but I killed my aunt...... Woowoo...... If she hadn't tried to protect me, she wouldn't have ...... like this."

"Okay, it's okay...... Let the past pass, we have at least a future......"

Caitlin didn't know what was wrong with her, she was obviously sad and wanted to cry, but she insisted on holding on in front of Oriana and comforting her.

"I ......"

Seeing that Oriana wanted to say something, Catelyn covered Oriana's lips lightly and said, "What exactly happened, let's wait until we get to Ionia safely, will you drive this spaceship?"

Oriana also rubbed her eyes strongly, and said, "Well, this spaceship is called the Flying Battleship Refik, and it is my father's blueprint, I should be able to drive it!"

With that, she got up and led Caitlyn to the Refik's control room. After a moment of tossing in the control room, the entire flying battleship took off into the air, making a loud roar as the Magic Transformation Engine was activated.

"It worked!" Orianna cheered and hugged Catelyn, expressing her joy.

Caitlin was also a little infected by Oriana's optimism, and she smiled back, "It's only Irelia and them next, and we'll get the remaining survivors to the battleship first."

"Hmm!"
