At this time, the top of the Dawn Fortress.

There are two figures, one in front and one behind, constantly shuttling on the city wall, escaping and chasing.

It wasn't until a long time later that they stopped.

On the top rampart of a castle, two figures stood on either side, about ten meters away from each other, each staring at each other.

At this time, the wind blew Caterina's red hair slightly, and her green eyes shone with an indifferent luster and a trace of undisguised killing intent.

On the other side, Duke Kao slowly lifted his hand holding the dagger in a posture ready to strike.

I have to say that Katerina's growth is indeed surprising in his opinion.

I don't have any advantage in speed anymore.

Since you can't run away, this life-and-death battle is inevitable.

"Only one of us will end up making it back to Noxus."

Duke Kao calmly accepted this fact, and then laughed: "The token is with me, bring it back, you are the strongest assassin." ”

"Less nonsense."

Caterina snorted coldly, took a brisk step, and rushed forward directly.

In the next second, Durkkao's figure also moved.

The two of them were together in the blink of an eye, each holding a dagger containing infinite killing power, and the two figures flashed back and forth on the top of the steep fortress.

The venue of the battle is no longer an inner room with four walls, there is no limit to the venue, and coupled with the battle of life and death, the two of them are also going all out.

Performing an instantaneous step is also a skill that consumes extremely physical strength, and there is no doubt that the side that runs out of physical strength first will not need to be said.

When you can't win through skill, then the next thing to fight for is strength.

So, with only one foot at the top of the spire, Caterina and Duke Kao began a battle of blades.

"Jingle Bell! Jingling! ”

The four sharp daggers, constantly colliding, made a crisp sound, and at the same time splashed bursts of sparks.

Generally speaking, the duel between assassins is often determined by a few moves.

However, at this time, the father and daughter, who were like strangers, fought against each other for more than a minute, and were in a state of stalemate, looking like they were equal.

Soon they all realized a problem.

It's all taught by a master, and you can't break it!

"Haven't you discovered yet, all your tricks are taught by me, and the limits you can reach are all given to you by me."

Duke Kao's expression at this time didn't look like he was highly nervous in a battle of life and death, but instead sneered easily: "And I, I'm proficient in dozens of assassination techniques that you don't know. How could you be my opponent. Your stamina has been depleted quite a bit now, so, it's time to get to an end. ”

He could see that Caterina had already used up a lot of energy, even though he was the same.

But in this state, your winning rate is even greater!

His offensive techniques changed abruptly, each knife became unexpected, and with each swing, there were multiple dagger remnants, making it difficult to distinguish between real and fake, extremely ferocious.

Katerina dodged one deadly blow after another, and she could feel a biting chill every time the blade almost grazed her skin.

She kept backing away, and suddenly her feet were empty, and she was already on the edge of the spire.

She could only leap backwards with all her might, and her body came into the air, and there was nothing to borrow.

In the next second, Duke Kao threw a dagger, and one dagger flew in, but it turned into many in mid-air.

Each of the glittering daggers is real, and there is mortal danger with it.

"Lao Dong XZ has a lot of private goods."

Caterina didn't think much about it, and she shuttled in an instant, and came to the other end.

However, as if Durkkao had predicted such an act, dozens of daggers flew in before he could gain a foothold.

Caterina's previous physical strength had made it impossible for her to launch continuous momentary steps, so without hesitation, she quickly took the path of the ten daggers into her eyes and found a space to dodge.

Then take a leap across.

Her slender and bewitching figure turned twice in mid-air, and dozens of daggers flew dangerously past the edges.

After landing, Caterina did not hesitate and dodged to distance herself.

"Worthy of my daughter, I thought you would die just now."

Duke Kao held the dagger in his hand with a satisfied expression, and looked at Caterina as if he were looking at a work of art.

This kind of look made Caterina extremely disgusting, she had not been treated as a "human" since she was a child, and she had always been an exhibit in his eyes.

The next second, a beautiful smile bloomed on her face: "But I do thank you very much, you taught me a lot, do you remember a sentence you once said to me. When an assassin assassinates a target, he must use all means, and mercy to the enemy is cruelty to himself. ”

"Yes, that's what I told you, so please die, my daughter."

There was no mercy on the dagger that Duke Kao wielded, and he didn't mind destroying his artwork with his own hands, and it was a big deal to make another one.

With this in mind, he was ready to unleash the final killer move without reservation.

However, when he raised his dagger's hand, he suddenly froze in midair.

Immediately after, he felt the moment his body moved, his heartbeat suddenly and violently accelerated for a moment, as if he had received some kind of impact, and he was losing control of his body.

With a look of disbelief in his eyes, Duke Kao glanced at the wound on his arm and instantly understood what had happened.

I'm poisoned!

That's where he found it hard to believe.

His body, like Katarina, has undergone inhuman training since he was a child, and he has been training against poison since then.

In order to prevent the enemy from poisoning in the necessary battle.

To this day, his body can be said to be invulnerable.

But at this moment, he will be poisoned?

In the next second, a sharp pain like a giant hand kneading his heart came, spreading to all corners of his body, and completely crushing his last resistance.

Compared to the physical pain, Durkkao felt a sense of death hopelessness at this moment.

"Looks like the effects of the drug have finally taken effect."

Caterina was no longer vigilant, her body relaxed, and she looked at Duke Kao in disbelief: "The effect of this poison is enough for you to eat a pot, I have experienced it myself." ”

"I see."

Duke Kao muttered to himself, his body had completely lost control and had become extremely stiff.

He leaned back and fell from the top towards the ground.

With a "poof", his body slammed to the ground.

In the next second, Caterina jumped down from the tower, stood in front of him, and looked condescendingly at Duke Kao lying on the ground: "Before you die, do you have anything else to say?" ”

Duke Kao couldn't even show his expression at this moment, and he didn't show a look of fear in the face of death, because he had calmed down.

Anyone will be afraid in the face of death, even if he has killed countless people, and he is no exception to seeing death, but he is ready to meet death at this moment.

Looking at Katerina's beautiful and outstanding face, he could see in those eyes that he was determined to kill him, Duke Kao opened his mouth and said, "In a real battle, there are enemies who will not give you the opportunity to poison. ”

"I know, so it won't happen next time."

Caterina replied indifferently.

"Yes, congratulations, Katarina, for becoming the strongest assassin."

Durkkao's rhetoric did not satisfy Caterina.

She stared at him coldly: "When death is coming, don't you have anything else to say?" ”

"Do you want to hear me beg for mercy?" Duke Kao seemed to be laughing: "It is my fate to be killed by my own work, and I have nothing to accept." ”

Caterina showed an unhappy expression, her eyes seemed to be burning with flames, and suddenly she smiled with relief: "To be honest, before this, what I wanted most was your approval. As if you just had to say that to me, Katarina, you are the best, and then the scars and pain on my body will be worth it. ”

There is nothing hard to admit about this, and the first half of her life has basically been working towards this goal.

As if she could satisfy Durkkao, she was not even afraid to jump from the top of a building more than ten meters high.

Even if she broke her whole body in the fall, she had to get up and squeeze a smile at Durkkao.

"And now?"

"Now I've found out that getting your approval bullshit is useless. Or rather, it doesn't matter if it's you, or anyone else. I was just a frog at the bottom of a well, but was that ridiculous? It's not funny, because it's not me who caused it, it's you. ”

Caterina stared at Durkkao without the slightest emotion: "So I want to tell you that my life will no longer be controlled by you. From now on, I will live for myself. ”

Does it make sense to talk to him about this? A man who never felt a trace of guilt about his biological daughter even if he died.

Will you be sad because of these few words?

No.

But Caterina said it anyway, because she didn't care if the man listened.

It's just that she wants to say it, and she wants to spit out these inner words that have been held back for a long time.

No vomiting, no pleasure.

For her, that's what makes sense.

Sure enough, after finishing speaking, Caterina felt much better, and a knot that had been blocked in her heart seemed to have been suddenly untied.

Duke Kao did not respond to Caterina's words, and his eyes turned from her to the blue sky of Demacia, muttering, "I really didn't expect that one day, I would die in a foreign country." ”

Caterina adjusted her mind at the moment, looked at him and asked, "Why did you promise Darkwell to come to Demacia?" Don't you know that he just wants you to fail the assassination so that you can use it against the family and the Assassin Guild? ”

In Noxus, the distribution of power is very scattered, although they are all ruled by a single leader, Darkwell.

However, under his subordinates, there are inevitably some powerful ones who are threatening to this position.

Undoubtedly, General Durkkao is one of them.

And he was not only in control of the Duke Kao family, but also many smaller families, as well as the Assassin Guild.

Taken together, Duquekao's position in Noxus is extraordinary.

In particular, the Assassin Guild under his command can be said to have made many people frightened just by the mention of their names.

Darkwell regards power as his fate, and this time he sent Dukkao to find a reason to attack his forces.

"Do you think that agreeing to the order will end differently than resisting the order?"

Duke Kao spoke in a calm tone, "I naturally know that Darkwell is afraid of the family forces and the Assassin Guild, but if I openly disobey the order, he will also have a reason to do it. ”

Caterina didn't simply listen to his words: "With your character, you can think of many solutions, but you chose the one that is easiest to find the reason, do you think I will believe your "I am also forced to be helpless for the sake of the family"? ”

"It's true that I'm for the sake of my family, but there are other reasons for it."

Durkkao's tone was flat, as if the pain in his body was completely non-existent: "Your mother and sister seem to be working for a mysterious organization, and I used the pretext of disappearance to try to find out the organization behind them. ”

At the mention of her mother and sister, Katerina frowned slightly: "So what do you know?" ”

"Since you can track me down to Demacia, why don't you find out the rest yourself?"

Duke Kao smiled, as if he wasn't going to say.

Katerina also smiled: "With your character, if you really found evidence that they worked for this so-called mysterious organization, I'm afraid you would have already done it." To put it bluntly, you don't know much. ”

"Then it's up to you to find out."

Duke Kao didn't deny it, and then he felt as if his body was passing away, his face became paler, and he continued: "There is another reason, I came to Demacia, also to find . Runes. ”

Caterina was still frowning, as if she was thinking.

"It is rumored that the rune is a power that fascinates and drives everyone crazy, and having it is equivalent to having supreme authority and power."

Duke Kao spoke quietly: "This is something that even Darkwell covets, I stumbled upon a rune, and it was in Demacia. I came here to find it. ”

Caterina asked, "So you found it?" ”

"If I find it, the person lying here won't be me."

Duke Kao said calmly.

Caterina was speechless, feeling that she was not up to the standard in this question.

Durkcao said slowly, "But I'm sure he's in the royal city of Demacia. ”

Caterina was ready to ask something more.

Suddenly, the ground shook, and from the direction of the inner room, an extremely violent and terrifying aura struck.

Even from a distance, Caterina felt the goodness and oppression of this force.

She looked at it, only to see a surge of orange-yellow energy, and she couldn't help but be stunned for a second: "That's what you said?" ”

Today's first change.,Watch the game.,After watching eight o'clock.,It's too late to code the second change.
