Dark clouds covered the moonlight, and the evening was full of silence, except for a few lights that guided the sheriff's night patrol, there were not even many light sources.

Suddenly, bright flames exploded in the tower near Piltover Academy, and the Celestial Maiden scattered outwards like flowers, gorgeous and colorful.

Bang!

After a few breaths, the sound of the explosion was followed by the light of the flames, and the sound of air waves was higher and higher.

The calm was shattered, and the aftermath even swept to the Noxian embassy.

In front of an open window, Ryan's plain white mage's robes were blown up by the air waves, making a rustling sound.

He stood in front of the windowsill of the embassy, quietly admiring the beautiful fireworks that bloomed in the night light.

The firelight was reflected in his eyes, like a fiery red lotus, which caught people's hearts.

The tower collapsed, sparks set the surrounding buildings on fire, and the explosion sent out stones that destroyed the streets.

"The first chapter of the night declares that there is no sleep tonight."

Katerina's expression was complicated, and she looked at the unusually tall back in front of her in awe:

"You didn't do anything, but you dominated the whole situation tonight. Why did you know that Stevan would betray? ”

The person who appeared on the shore defense line tonight was simply the hidden power of the Philos family.

"There is such a man standing in front of you, who can force your father to kneel, and it will happen that your father wants you to do something unwillingly, what will you choose?" Ryan lightly downplayed the situation of the siblings.

Caterina pondered for a moment, unsure, "I may give in, but I understand that some people choose to betray their families. ”

"Where is the betrayal?"

Ryan's words were filled with a smile:

"Stevan is very satisfied with everything that the Philos family has now, he only wants to die a quiet old age in the position of the head of the family, and his greatest wish is probably to watch his children and grandchildren grow up happily."

"Sounds heartwarming, is it Councilor Camille's question?" Caterina was a little confused.

"Camille is not wrong, she is willing to compromise with Noxus for the sake of the family and Piltover, but the compromise is for the family to have a chance to be stronger, if sacrifice cannot be exchanged for the strength of the family and the city-state, she will aim her blade at the family that is content with the status quo, and re-exchange blood for the family."

Ryan shook his head, thinking of Svein, he and Camille were really similar.

He met Svein when he first joined the army, and he relied on magic to gain a foothold, while Svein was rewarded by reporting his family's rebellion.

And at that time, he happened to be under the command of the other party.

At first, he didn't think he looked down on Svein, thinking that he was a big murderer. But as he got deeper, he found that the other party had absolute sanity, and although his strength was not very strong, his strategy and wisdom were admirable.

The main thing is that the mind is pure. He seemed to be born for the sake of the empire, and he was willing to sacrifice everything if he could make the empire stronger. In this regard, Camille is not at all comparable to Svein.

"And what about the other pair, you seem to be expecting more from them."

Listening to the commotion outside the window, Caterina raised her eyebrows, looked down, and just saw two hooded figures passing down the street below.

"As I mentioned before, the people of Zuan put their hopes in something."

Ryan paused, then continued:

"Jinx's previous name was Burst, and she had a dual personality in her body, corresponding to two names. In the eyes of their sister Wei, whether it is Jinx or Explosion, it is the explosion in her heart that can't do anything well and needs to be brought by her sister. ”

In the eyes of the explosion, Wei is the sister who is extremely eager to hear a word of approval from the other party, and she longs for her sister's love and affirmation.

Jinx, on the other hand, was born on the night of Fandel's death. She wanted to save Fandel, but she killed her companion by mistake. Because Vi scolded and accused himself of being a disaster, Jinx was born. She was supposed to be a madman, and crazy looking for revenge was the meaning of her life, but because of Hilco's careful care, it became the current contradictory appearance. ”

I don't know why, Caterina could hear a trace of regret in Ryan's words.

After thinking about it, she still gave her own evaluation:

"A Zaun-esque tragedy."

Ryan agreed, but when he thought that not long ago, Hilco found his request, and he couldn't help but fall into a deep groan.

He stared at Jinx's departing back, as if to gauge in his mind whether the other party was worth doing something.

......

The tower was baptized by rockets, and not only did Piltover become noisy, but Zaun could hear the movement here.

Camille, who was walking through the dimly lit streets, suddenly paused, frowned, and glanced back in Piltover's direction.

"What's wrong?" Wei asked curiously.

"Someone sacrificed, for the sake of Piltover's future."

Camille continued to walk forward, her face unchanged.

"That explosion just now... Something happened to Pi Cheng, right? ”

Caitlyn's face was black and terrifying, and she grabbed Camille's arm, one of the few fleshy parts of the other party.

Her facial features were amazing, and she also heard the explosion from the direction of Picheng, and the sacrifice in the other party's words, things were not so simple at all.

"Gilamann, this is war. We killed the king, and they captured the king. ”

"Who is the one who died?"

Caitlin's tone was cold, it was completely different from the justice she wanted to carry out, and she didn't agree with what Camille said.

If the implementation of justice requires sacrifice, it should be those who die on the front line, so why should they involve the innocent masses in the rear?

"Maybe it's your mother, maybe it's my brother, maybe it's Heimerdinger, at least he's a man of status."

There was not a hint of emotion in Camille's tone, as if even if it was her brother who was sacrificed, it had nothing to do with her.

"How can you do that? No, I need to go back and protect them! ”

Caitlin couldn't get used to the other party's style and tried to turn around, but Jace grabbed him and shook his head at him.

There was incredulity in her eyes, and she pursed her lips:

"Why?"

"She's right, we don't know what's going on in the city, but if we go back, then they'll die in vain."

Jace was not as cold-blooded as Caitlyn had imagined, and his face was hesitant and painful, but he still looked at the other party without squinting, and did not back down at all.

"Little cake."

Vi came from the front and grabbed Caitlyn's neck:

"There are so many sheriffs in Piltover, and now there is no more of you, and no less of you. And we are going to crusade against Hilco, and you are indispensable for our help. ”

Caitlin closed her eyes and bowed her head in silence.

After a long while, she took a deep breath and opened her eyes again:

"I'm sorry... I was just distraught, we have to pick up the pace. ”

"It's here. Gilamann, don't let justice be your weakness. ”

Camille's hook was thrown forward, and the whole person leaped forward.

Multiply!!!

Just where she was standing, an orange-yellow laser slashed through it, leaving a deep nick.

"Welcome to Zaun!"
