Chapter 70: The Day of Execution

Execution day.

The South Square is home to a large number of Piltover residents.

"It's been a day of execution for how many years."

"The last time was more than ten years ago, the person who executed Zu'an Chongqiao. In the blink of an eye, Zuan was independent. ”

"There's nothing wrong with that, they've always been a drag on us, and without Zaun, Piltover would be richer."

"Who was executed today?"

"Jinx, the explosion maniac, is said to have had a falling out with Zuan. Hilco, one of the two leaders of Zaun, also clashed because of her. ”

"Victor, the leader of Zaun, is just an assistant professor of the academy, and Zau An will only carry out some terrorist attacks."

"No, when this person is executed today, he will be comfortable for a long time in the future."

“......”

The people in the square were talking a lot, all of them were well-dressed and dignified, but their tones were as lofty as ever.

On the roof of a building with a wide view, Ryan stared at the execution table that had already been set up, and on his shoulder stood a six-eyed scarlet crow.

The crow stared at the square indifferently, and said in a calm voice:

"I kind of understand the purpose of your experiment, the future of the people of the empire should not be like this."

"Ease is decadent, but excessive hard labor is also numbing." Ryan's tone was flat.

"A point worth pondering, remember that you mentioned back then, that the empire is the empire of all Noxians." The six-eyed crow's voice was far more emotional than the previous ones.

"The empire belongs to us, and to every Noxian. We in Trefali must always remember that if we succeed in the future, it is only because the Empire needs us now. ”

Ryan looked at the square where more and more people were gathering, and there was a different color in his eyes:

"The people of a kingdom can see the essence of national policy. Through the evaluation of policies, it is possible to estimate the ability of the leader. ”

For example, Piltover loves peace, but the people are afraid of the weak and the hard. Even the execution had to be executed by shooting, which shows that they respected civilization from top to bottom, and there was a little less blood. The six-eyed raven spoke to Piltover of what it had seen.

"It's going to be bloody, it's going to be called Noxus a long time ago. Even if a hungry wolf loses its fangs, it is still a wolf. And the sheep is armed to the teeth, and it is nothing more than a sheep. ”

Ryan watched as Jinx was escorted from afar, and behind her stood a complex-looking Celeste and a stern-faced Catelyn.

"Indeed, Piltover is not far from the Immortal Fortress, and it is nice to be a sheep with fangs."

One man and one crow said in a few words, which had already set the tone for Piltover's future.

Its three pairs of scarlet eyes looked at Jinx, who had no loveless face, and seemed to think of something, which was interesting:

"Speaking of executions, I recently met a waning Imperial executioner at the Tavern, who has an interesting personality and speaking style, and who will stand up for me, the vanquished, and who should perhaps be invited to join Trefali."

Ryan smiled dumbly: "There are not many people in the Immortal Fortress who can be favored by the commander, and I will send a copy of the contract back." ”

"His name is Draven, you should be familiar with him, he joined us on the condition of the Empire's executioner, but there are still people in that position today." The crow meant something.

"The contemporary executioner Urgarte is a man of Darkwell, and his strength is okay. Let Miss Camille do the trick, or you can get him to me, with Lesser on guard. Ryan smiled and gave his advice, then his voice changed, "I don't know Delevingne very well, and I know that the name comes from his brother, who is the only one who dares to pour me wine. ”

"How many years have it been since I was the commander of the Eastern Front, and you still remember it so clearly." The raven had a smile in his tone.

"He almost put an axe to my head at that moment, why should he be angry with us in Freljord." Ryan spread his hands.

"The object of his anger was Darkwell, and I was called Darkwell's most faithful crow." The crow sighed.

He once made a contribution by reporting the family rebellion and became the general of Noxus, and in the eyes of everyone, he was a Darkwell man.

No one would have imagined that he was loyal only to the Empire.

"But he said that I couldn't back down at the time." Ryan laughed.

"Noxians, never back down. So that day you sealed him in a water balloon, and the cold air of the night froze the water balloon, and he was frozen all night. There are still rumors of discord among you in the Immortal Fortress. Raven recalled.

"He's a very good guy, strong enough to be respected by him, he has risen from the beginning, but he loves the empire no less than we do, so at my invitation, he will become the third member of Trevary." Ryan said.

At this point, Jinx was pushed onto the execution table and tied to the pillar with a rope.

After the prisoners have entered, it is customary for the councillors to give passionate speeches.

Ryan and Raven's building is far from the plaza, but Jace's words can still be clearly heard through Leather City's loudspeaker device:

"We've been through a lot of hardships together these days, and some of the things that we were proud of have gone wrong not so long ago for various reasons."

"But we've always been a progressive city and we'll never stop finding problems and solving them. In one of our operations, we were able to capture the main suspect in the previous bombing attack on Piltover, Jinx. She..."

Jace recounted the crimes committed by Jinx with emotion, and he was much better than he was a few months ago when he was still young in speech.

He easily set the mood in the room and focused everyone's attention on Jinx.

In their plan, it won't be long before Hilco attacks here, but the opposing lineup won't be too strong.

They will achieve a brilliant victory in front of the population, proving that Piltover is capable of dealing with all crises.

In this battle, Weihui, who is Jinx's sister, makes a battle feat and begs them not to shoot Jinx.

Through Mel's manipulation, the council will mercifully pass Vi's request to commute the execution to life imprisonment.

Afterwards, they will take control of Jinx as a way to coerce and support Hilco to go to Zaun to be their eyeliner so that they can get to know Zaun better.

This is a plan that Mel and Hilco discussed, and at first Jace was very resistant, he felt that only a low-level person like Hilko could come up with such an unscrupulous plan in order to return to the top of Zuan.

But in the end, Mel's words woke him up that someone had to carry the darkness for the light of Piltover.

Piltover's development will never always be smooth sailing, and now it is his turn to be the one who carries the weight and carries the darkness.

Moreover, it is clear that his former partner Victor is more feared than Hilco, and they must understand what the other has done in Zaun.

However, yesterday the Gillamon family took Vi to still water prison, which made him and Mel a little uneasy.

But the other party also knows the first half of their plan, only the part where they control Hilco hides from the other councilors, and the other party doesn't need to get along with them...

Jace's expression was solemn, and his voice came through the speaker:

"After a unanimous vote in Parliament, Jinx is shot here today to wash away the sins she has committed. Execution Officer: Caitlin Gillaman. ”

The moment his words fell, there was a sudden ear-ringing sound from the side of the sea.

It was the sound of the levee being struck by a ship.

Wow!

The surging waves rushed up from the shore, and a large merchant ship crashed into the shore and landed not far from the execution square.

Mrs. Piltworth was in a state of flux, sirens sounded in the city, a large number of magistrates poured into the city, and the common people retreated in panic.

Hearing this, Jace looked at the dilapidated square in distress, but still began to organize the defense of the man in an orderly manner according to the plan.

Jinx was tied to the execution pillar, and his eyelids unconsciously lifted slightly when he heard the sound of an explosion.

Not far in front of her, a cargo ship stood upright.

She ignored the commotion of Mrs. Pittworth in her ears and stared at the ship in a daze.

At the bow of the boat, a short figure in a black trench coat stood, and at the sight of him, Jinx's spirit went into a trance.

Is it really coming...

Hilco!

No, no one should have come to her rescue!

She can't do anything, it's not worth it...

Vaguely, she saw the figure gently reach out to her.

Seeing Hilco's figure becoming clearer and clearer, she somehow, as if something suddenly wet, gradually blurred her eyes.

The other party is still the same, and when he needs himself, he will reach out to himself.

Originally... There was always someone who needed her.
