Chapter 669: Fighting Wits and Courage (2-in-1 Chapter)

"Mr. Jeno, may I ask you a question before that?" The Faceling looked up slightly.

"Just ask, don't be too private." Jeno sat back in his chair and cleaned the tea set.

"My army's eyeliner tells me that you were in Ionia a few days ago, but you showed up at the Immortal Fortress last night. It's a long way to go, and I'm afraid it's not that fast to take the speedboat in Picheng, right? ”

"Magic, you have it, I have it." Jeno said casually.

"Now that the war of Noai is still in full swing, what is the purpose of Mr. coming to the Immortal Fortress at this time?"

The title of sir made Jeno feel awkward, because he was a young man in his early twenties, and the other party was an old witch who had lived for a thousand years. Sir, where is he?

"That's the second question, and is it interesting to ask knowingly? Of course I'm here for Ionia. In the face of LeBlanc's endless temptation, Jeno began to write impatience on his face, and he didn't want to have a relationship with LeBlanc from this.

When the amiable face can't advance the depth of the conversation, it's time to tear the skin.

"Truth be told, the invasion of Ionia was all the idea of Svein and Darius."

LeBlanc noticed the displeasure on Jeno's face and shook the pot very skillfully.

The aristocratic class of the entire empire knew that the hand of Noxus obeyed the great commander, the newly promoted military nobles called this strategic cooperation, and the old-school blood nobles called it collusion and embarrassment.

"But I've heard that the proposal for an attack on Ionia at the operational meeting was approved by three votes." Jeno sneered.

"The other two people colluded with each other to vote for the affirmative, and it won't help if I vote for no more, and I will attract people to hold grudges for nothing." LeBlanc began to take advantage of women's advantages, and her tone of powerlessness was as if she had been wronged.

But Jeno knew that this man had been using her visions to disrupt order and create chaos so that the empire and even other nations would run according to her heart—LeBlanc's words could not be believed by a word, not even by seeing.

In her cover-up methods, she will only let you know what she wants you to know, and only let you see what she wants you to see.

"Don't talk to me about these useless things, I don't have as much time as you. Since you have come to me, then say your conditions as soon as possible, what do you want from me? Jeno's fingers tapped the rhythm on the table.

If he finds a way to identify the person in front of him as LeBlanc's real body, I'm afraid he has already done it.

"Then I'll have to tell me how I can help you." LeBlanc is still tentative and reluctant to be open.

"Cast your vote to get Noxus back and return the borders, and not to invade Ionia for a while." Jeno's fingers were still tapping, and the rhythm hadn't changed.

In fact, he was anxious because LeBlanc's reaction was unpredictable. Noxus's expansion is the expectation of the people, and the trickster LeBlanc cannot oppose the entire country, and she even wants to manipulate the country in secret.

"It's not a small price...... Even if you win my vote, it will still pass by two votes, so you still can't retreat. ”

For LeBlanc, Jeno's request was both unexpected and reasonable. The war has reached the point of fighting on its own, and only allowing Noxus to withdraw can save Ionia from fire and water.

But what kind of impact will this have on Noxus?

The war between Noxus and Ionia was a major national concern.

If you withdraw in such a near-winnable situation, won't you give up the fruits of victory that are within reach? All the previous efforts were meaningless and in vain, which would call into question the decision-making body of the Trifali Council as never before.

It not only wasted money and human lives, but also lost the support of the people, the price is not small, and it is possible to replace all people under the pressure of public opinion set off by the old-school aristocracy.

But if she really wants to change people, it will be a good thing for LeBlanc, because she has tens of millions of incarnations, and it is too easy to return to this position, and she can also go back behind the scenes and be a rose blooming in the dark.

"You don't have to worry so much, just cast your vote, and I'll take care of the rest." Jeno snorted, his attitude still tough, not relenting at all.

If Noxus is compared to a pack of wolves, then Ionia is a flock of sheep. And what Jeno has to do is to maintain the ecological balance, and if you kill less, you can let less energy flow to another world. As long as he can make the wolves not kill the sheep, he doesn't mind who the head wolf of the wolf pack replaces, anyway, everyone is not enough to see the army of the other world.

He is not a shepherd, nor a hunter, but an intervener, a guide.

"It's useless, I know you want to threaten Darius to vote, but he's already tied to Svein. If Svein is not addressed, then the situation will not change in any way. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the room froze, and even Jeno's fingers stopped tapping.

Darius's family was his weakness, as evidenced by the battle of Besilico and detected by the eye-catching LeBlanc, who relented at his openly treasonous first love, Queleta.

If Jeno could want to use his only relative, Delevingne, to threaten Darius, would Svein and LeBlanc not think of it?

But strictly speaking, Draven cannot be regarded as the only relative of Darius, and his daughter is still alive.

Qurieta's treason was a different story, and it was also linked to the son and daughter Qurieta had given birth to him, but Darius did not know that it was his child at the time. Although his son had been thrust into the army by Darius's conscription order and died on the battlefield of Freljord, the rebel lord Quiletta was stabbed in the neck by the daughter of the adjutant of Surrender, and died in front of Darius, unable to tell that it was his son until he died.

Jeno didn't think it was as simple as it seemed.

He always felt that LeBlanc was definitely involved in this "mother and daughter" counterinsurgency incident, otherwise the father killed his son without knowing it, causing the mother to defect, and finally the daughter killed the mother to end the rebellion.

If there is one of the LeBlanc people, it is most likely the daughter who prevented her mother from telling the truth.

Perhaps in order to split the current Raven Nohand Alliance, perhaps the Enchantress began planning a few years ago. Creating a rift in the alliance between Darius and Svein, the poor victim Darius ended up in a situation worse than the separation of his wife.

Loyalty to the Empire must always take precedence over responsibility to the family, this is Svein's idea, and he has done it once - because discovering that his parents are members of the Black Rose of the Empire, the moth-eater of the Empire, Svein exposes his parents' crimes to the Empire and receives a military position.

Darius, on the other hand, disagrees, that the status of the family may be higher in his heart than that of the state, and after killing his wife and son, this guilt will intensify his protection of the family, thus making him choose the former between the dilemma of family and country.

LeBlanc may have discovered this and designed such a tragedy, sowing the seeds of hatred between Darius and Svein.

Because no matter how you look at the conscription order, it has to do with Svein's expansion decision, and LeBlanc only makes a small move to let people who shouldn't be there appear in the wrong places.

Jeno was thinking a little too far ahead, he just wanted to threaten him with Darius's family to vote, but LeBlanc reminded him that she and Svein could do the same, so the path was not feasible.

And he also heard another layer of information from LeBlanc's words, that is, LeBlanc's attitude towards Svein.

"So what? What you want from me is Svein's life? ”

Jeno thought that what LeBlana wanted from him was the magical relics of the Shadow Isle, and in order to win LeBlalan's voting rights, he was indeed prepared to bleed.

Unexpectedly, LeBlan's ravines were difficult to fill, and what she wanted was to assassinate Svein herself, and she would control the entire empire herself.

"It's easy to talk to smart people. Svein must step down, and our secret society will do whatever it takes to achieve its goals. As long as he steps down, then the three-legged situation will change, and Darius's position will become wavering, and then when I put someone in Svein's position, then the Trifali Council founded by him is not up to us. ”

The sleek mask still hides all of LeBlalan's expressions.

In addition to the black roses, Svein's eyeliner was also all over the Immortal Fortress, so LeBlanc couldn't make any big moves.

And Jeno, who suddenly appeared at this time, just met her requirements, and she had to be sharp enough to kill people with a knife. Her intel mentions that Jeno is powerful, has defeated the ancient witch of Shurima, lifted the curse of Shadow Isle, and it is not difficult to deal with a Svein, the most important thing is that he is not like he is placed in the open, and the assassination is to be carried out in secret.

"Assassinate Svein? It's not an easy thing to do, but it's not impossible...... But I don't even know whether the person in front of me is the Pale Lady herself, and I don't have sincerity, which makes it difficult for me to do it. Jeno's fingers tapped on the tea table again, and LeBlanc's mentality changed subtly.

"Actually, Mr. Jeno doesn't have to be so entangled, there is me everywhere, everyone is me, you just need to know that what you say will eventually reach my ears. Of course, if you are still reassured, you can also ask me questions until you confirm that I am the Pale Lady herself. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, another identical Faceling suddenly appeared in the doorway behind Jeno, and when his eyes were drawn to him, a third Faceling appeared next to LeBlan......

They were speaking in unison, saying the same thing in the same voice.

"That's it, let's do a little test to confirm it." Jeno suddenly slapped the table, interrupting LeBlalan's pretending.

"It's just a flash in the pan, please." Several figures turned into smoke in the sound of the shooting, and only one remained.

LeBlanc wanted to take off her mask and answer Jeno well, but she didn't expect Jeno to suddenly make such a request, which really surprised her. She let go of the hand that was on her mask, wanting to see how Jeno had tested her for real.

"I'll go and fetch something, and you're right here, don't move around." Jeno got up, took a deep look at LeBlan, and turned away from Elise's wedding room, leaving only a trace of her back in her eyes.

He took the shattered rune broadsword from his room and brought it to LeBlanc's eyes.

"If it's really a pale lady, she must know this weapon, right?"

LeBlanc looked through the small holes in the silk mesh in her mask to the broadsword on the table, which was wider than a shield, and the blade was engraved with rough Emeral-Noxian strokes, and the angular inscriptions glowed with a magical green light, reminding LeBlanc at a glance of its origin—the sword she had given as a reward to a good female warrior.

"Even though it's broken, I can tell that it's my handiwork." She said.

"Since you also know that this is your work, please fix it. If you can't fix it, then it proves that you are not the Pale Lady herself. Jeno's tone was noncommittal.

The corners of LeBlanc's mouth, hidden under the mask, twitched with anger on the spot.

It was true that she had enchanted the broadsword in E-Noxian, but now that it was broken and broken into several pieces, how could she fix it?

Letting the enchanter do what the blacksmith does, it's a blatant bully! She was very helpless, and she couldn't prove it if she wanted to prove that she was herself!

"I'll try my best." Reluctantly, LeBlanc took off her gloves and began to put the shattered blades together one by one.

As soon as the patchwork was completed, the inscriptions on the sword lit up one after another, and the sword body began to roar, accumulating magical energy, which could burst out at any time.

LeBlanc immediately pressed her delicate hands up and began to suppress the demonic energy reaction on the sword's body, trying to repair the inscription circle. But the inscription circle had already shattered along with the sword body, becoming extremely unstable, and the energy path was opened chaotically, and once the magic power was injected, this reaction would be exacerbated!

The sword continued to gush out of the wind, blowing LeBlanc's black robe to the ground, the purple nails on his fingertips began to tremble slightly, and the pale knuckles began to twist.

Things were going in a bad direction, and Jeno knew she wouldn't be able to complete the repair work on her own, so she reached out and pressed her left hand down the blade.

He used the fragment of the Enlightenment Rune hidden in his left arm, and used the power of the rune to secretly change the structural properties of the metal, melt and heal the cracks that were pieced together, and help LeBlanc suppress the resistance of the sword body. But this also caused the inscription circle on the sword to break, and the roar of the sword body became more harsh.

"Fix it now and prove yourself!" Jeno whispered at LeBlanc with an unmistakable command.

And LeBlanc didn't know it was a pit until now, but it was too late, she had already jumped in.
