That day, after Harry returned to Zaun, after a long day of pleading, his cousin finally agreed to help.

The next morning.

Lu Yang left not long ago.

Harry sneaks up on the heart of the machines.

Scott saw him at a glance and shouted, "Harry! ”

"Be quiet." Harry looked around nervously and was relieved to see that no one was paying attention, and pulled Scott into an unobtrusive corner.

"What are you doing?" Scott frowned, and he noticed that Harry was very wrong recently.

"Aren't you sick? I don't look sick from you! Also, do you know how much work you have added to me by taking these few days off? ”

As he spoke, Scott's tone became more and more dissatisfied.

Harry had a flattering smile on his face: "I'm sorry Scott, I'll make it up to you in a few days." ”

He dared to look down on Lu Yang, who was a foreigner, and even plotted to kill him, but he didn't dare to be disrespectful to Scott.

As mentioned earlier, anyone who can work in the heart of the machine, even if it's just a waiter, can't be done by anyone. Like himself, it was the alchemist's cousin who helped him get this job. And Scott, he is a distant relative of the hotel manager.

As the manager of one of the best hotels in the whole city, his social status is not comparable to that of a small alchemist. The backers can't compare, and Harry naturally doesn't dare to provoke.

"The manager has already expressed his displeasure with you." Scott also knows what he is relying on, and scares Harry half-truthfully. The trivial matter of Harry asking for leave naturally did not bother the manager, but when the manager came to the store that day, he didn't see him and simply asked "Where did Harry go".

Of course, how to interpret it is another matter, and it cannot be said that Scott is lying to Harry.

Harry was shocked, the manager has always been strict with the staff, and Scott's identity is related, he has no suspicion at all, and he can't help but get anxious.

This job is the key to his "decent" life in Pitt City, and there must be no mistakes.

Damn outlanders! What to do? What am I going to do? Harry panicked, and when he looked at Scott, it was like grasping at the only straw.

"Scott, you and the manager are related, you must help me......"

Harry almost burst into tears, promising benefits in piles and piles of benefits, and finally Scott was empty-hearted, wondering if the manager was really dissatisfied with Harry.

Although it is rumored that he and the manager are relatives, he knows his own situation, they are indeed a little related, otherwise he would not be able to enter the mechanical heart, but I don't know how many generations away from the relationship, he can't talk about any face in front of the manager.

However, the words are all said, and now that they are withdrawn, the only result is one more enemy, and ...... Harry promised a good fortune that thrilled him.

Scott refused a few times, and finally pretended to be reluctant to agree, and warned in advance: "Harry, you know, I'm just a distant relative of the manager, and I can only try my best to help you say good things, and I can't guarantee that it will work." ”

"Understood, please, Scott."

There was a disease and went to the doctor, Harry couldn't care about the pit buried in Scott's words at this time, and even if he noticed it, he could only jump down obediently.

Scott was calm on the surface, and nodded apprehensively in his heart: "Are you here to work today?" It's just a little over a day......"

Harry bit his spit and stubbornly said, "Scott, I may not be able to go to work today......"

Let me pay such a big price, that out-of-town guy is not dead, how can I give up?

Harry roared wildly in his heart, his eyes were a little red, what happened today made his hatred for Lu Yang directly explode.

"Huh? What else is going on with you? Again to be seen by the manager......"

Harry interrupted him faintly, "Scott, that's why I asked you." ”

He wasn't completely stupid, he just took a day off, and the manager wouldn't fire him no matter what, and the reason why he promised so many benefits to Scott was for the next two days.

Not just to get angry, he begged his cousin, begged Scott, and found other relationships, and spent almost all his savings over the years. That out-of-town guy can afford to live in the heart of the machine, and he must be worth a lot of money, and as long as he extorts a part of it, he may not only be able to make up for the loss this time, but also make a lot of money.

It can be said that the current Scott is like a red-eyed gambler who has pressed all his capital, and if he loses, he will have nothing.

After Scott was interrupted, he was stunned for a moment, and was just about to get angry when he saw Harry's faint eyes, like a basin of cold water poured over his head, sobering up from Harry's compliment just now.

They are all small people with similar status, and they just inadvertently bluffed him, but it doesn't mean that they are really big people.

Moreover, he has already received the benefits, got on the thief ship, and couldn't get off.

Barely able to control his empty heart, Scott patted his chest and said proudly: "Don't worry, if there is something, I will take care of it for you." ”

Harry finally smiled, and Scott smiled reluctantly, faintly regretful.

"That's right." Only then did Harry remember the true purpose of his trip: "Scott, did the stranger who came to stay the night before yesterday go out?" ”

Scott said absentmindedly, "Who? Oh, come to mind, he's like he's going to Zu'an in the morning. ”

If it was usual, he might have cared about Harry's abnormal inquiry, but at this time, his heart was excited and mixed, where could he take care of it?

"Went to Zaun?" Harry's eyes lit up, almost jumping with excitement.

God help me! Damn foreigner, if you dare to harm me like this, you must pay a terrible price!

In his heart, Lu Yang was already his enemy, second only to the woman who robbed him of his job in Picheng.

"Scott, I still have something to do, I'll leave it to you for the next two days."

"Huh? Oh, okay. ”

Scott left in a hurry, ready to deal with Lu Yang, but Lu Yang didn't know anything about it for the time being.

He was pacing the streets of Zaun, just as he had been when he first arrived in Phi City.

The history of Zu'an is actually much older than that of Picheng.

In ancient times, there was no leather city, only Zuan, and at that time, Zuan was just a trading post in the north of Shurima, although it was prosperous, but its potential was limited.

At that time, the east and west oceans of the Valoran continent were separated by an isthmus, which is where Zuan is located.

Any ship wishing to communicate would have to embark on a long and arduous voyage around the southernmost tip of the Shurima continent, not only facing treacherous shallows and reefs, but also paying several times as long.

Sometime in modern times, with the development of alchemy technology, the patriarch of Zaun suddenly came up with the crazy idea of blowing a hole in the isthmus and creating a canal to connect the oceans on both sides of Valoran.

This plan is crazy and tempting, and if successful, it will change the trade situation in the entire Runeterra, and most importantly, it will become a powerful enabler for Zaun, making Zaun soar to the sky with immeasurable potential.

The rulers of Zu'an in this era are crazy, and they have come up with this crazy plan, and they have actually promoted the implementation of the plan. They enlisted the best scientists and planted thousands of alchemical blasting devices underground.

In the end, they succeeded, but they also failed.

Maybe it's because the explosives are unstable, maybe it's because scientists miscalculated...... In short, the reason is no longer known, such a huge and crazy project, a small mistake, can lead to unknowable consequences.

The explosion caused a chain earthquake reaction that shook the core of the isthmus. The entire isthmus was torn open with a huge opening, and the sea water poured in, and the torrent that collapsed uncontrollably rushed into Zu'an, flooding an entire city area.

The passage was opened, and the transportation between the eastern and western oceans was revolutionized, bringing infinite possibilities to Zuan, but Zuan disappeared.

Explosions, earthquakes, and sea water left the whole of Zuan in ruins, killing countless people and causing immeasurable property losses.

Later, over time, Zaun was rebuilt, and a new city was built on top of it: Piltover.

However, at the time of the explosion, the alchemical poison gas, exhaust gas, and smoke produced were mixed together, forming a cloud of smog that would never dissipate, and forever shrouded Zu'an.

It is difficult to say whether the decision of those in power in the first place was right or wrong.

It was undoubtedly a disaster for the Zuan people of that era, but for the trade of the entire continent and later Picheng and Zuan, the value of the passage created by it was immeasurable.
