The Glory of Noxus

Chapter 253 Zaun’s Haze Dance Corridor
"Source Plan!"

Huo Jixing looked a little dazed when he saw the three words with heavy ink marks on the note, and his thoughts returned to his past life.

Source plan!
This is a series of skins that were very popular among players in previous League of Legends games.

But now, the appearance of the three words "Yuan Plan" on the note instantly caused ripples in his memory.

Could it be said that besides him, there are other time-travelers in Valoran?
Or is everything that happened in front of me just an unexpected coincidence?

Huo Jixing suppressed his inner thoughts and related what happened recently.

Everything behind the scenes is pointing towards
Eye of Zuan!

"Hex Gems, Hex Stabilizers, and the Final Source Project."

Huo Jixing looked at the note in his hand and suddenly laughed softly.

"If it is confirmed that the source plan is exactly the same as the source plan in the memory of the previous life, then all this will make sense!"

When he walked out of the dark and lonely street, his expression changed. He turned his head and looked behind him, and saw a thin green haze filling the air.

Project Source means a plan to transform humans into more powerful war machines through mechanical transformation.

Huo Jixing's eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but think of the stolen Hex gems and Hex stabilizing devices.

The forces behind the Eye of Zaun intend to use the Hex Gem to create the energy core that drives Project Source warriors.

Zaun is a vast underground city nestled beneath the winding ravines and canyons surrounding Piltover.

Huo Jixing had just returned to his room, and before he had time to rest, he heard the sound coming from the sound transmission tube.

Huo Jixing strolled to the dining table, wiped his hands with a snow-white napkin, and tasted the delicious food.

Hearing the sound, Huo Jixing walked to the left side of the door, turned on the sound transmission tube device in front of him, and responded softly.

The chandelier in the dome casts bright light, covering the long dining table.

Although Kalida has disappeared, the news she left behind brought him a big surprise.

The skin universe of Project Source is an era of highly developed technology.

"Project Source, Kalida's brother, does that mean that Scarlet Reaper Vladimir's hand has reached out to Zaun?"

"Still not enough information!"

Castle restaurant.

"What a genius idea!"

"Lord Huo Jixing, my father wants to meet with you."

The lower urban area is the place closest to Zaun and has long been influenced by Zaun.

The first batch of Project Source products were made by injecting the genes of ancient heroes into robots.

After the blood magic incident, Kalida's brother disappeared unexpectedly.

Huo Jixing's thoughts surged, and various thoughts emerged in his mind, eventually turning into a messy ball of wool.

Now that I think about it, Kalida's brother may have played an unknown role in the blood magic incident.

Smoke and dust of various colors leaked from the stacked, corroded and aging smoke exhaust pipe network, forming the haze of Zaun in front of us.

Huo Jixing spoke softly, feeling certain in his heart.

"Project Source: Judgment!"

Huo Jixing put away the note, looked around the ordinary studio in front of him, and chose to leave.

Huo Jixing looked at the haze of Zuan dancing in the wind, and suddenly remembered that Kalida mentioned his brother in the note.

Huo Jixing shook his head gently. After stopping for a long time, his figure melted into the darkness and disappeared.

Myrdalda Castle.

The old man with white temples sitting in the main seat looked at Huo Jixing quietly without moving.

There's also the battle that takes place in the Zodiac vault, where Vi's Hex Mimic resembles him.

In the quiet atmosphere, only the sound of Huo Jixing chewing food could be heard.

Huo Jixing closed the iron door of the shop and prepared to return to Midarda Castle.

The final experimental results also gave Yuan Project Company a taste of the sweetness.

This makes the energy core that drives every Source Plan warrior particularly important in the Source Plan.

However, there were other important things at that time, so I didn’t look for any traces of Kalida’s brother.

"Scarlet Secret Society!"

"It's Jal. I'll be there in a moment."

They are cold and cruel war machines, possessing terrifying power, but also consume an extremely large amount of energy.

Then he glanced at the sleeping snow-white Poro, left the room, and headed to the main castle.

"Is this Zuan's haze?"

Kalida and he knew each other during the blood magic incident in Blood Cliff.

After Huo Jixing finished the food and put down his knife and fork, Jia Gu spoke slowly.

"How many Hex gems does Mr. Huo Jixing want?"

"Due to technological limitations, the Myrdalda family has a limited number of Hex gems stored."

Huo Jixing looked calm and was not surprised at all that Jia Gu knew what happened in the laboratory.

"Of course the more the merrier."

Hearing Huo Jixing's words, a look of hesitation appeared on Jia Gu's old face.

A series of things that have happened recently have caused the family think tank to give bad news to Piltover.

The most important reason that forced Jia Gu to meet Huo Jixing was the report from Butler Shiro.

Earlier, Butler Shiloh mentioned that there were Noxians who came specifically to look for Huojixing.

Soon afterwards, Huo Jixing brought back three injured people and asked the Myrdalda family to assist in treatment.

After receiving Huo Jixing's order, Butler Shiro immediately said there was no problem and reported it to Jia Gu.

"Lese Guard Secret House."

Jagu recalled meeting the three Youshils and instantly understood their identities.

Unlike his son and Butler Shiloh, Jagu had seen the Reiser Guards during the Ionian Islands War.

Now even the Reiser Defense Secretariat has been attacked. It can be imagined that the situation in Piltover is now getting out of control.

"If the Hex Stone doesn't work, the Hex Crystal will, too."

Seeing Jia Gu's expression change, Huo Jixing took a step back and said.

For many of Piltover's inventors, untreated Hex Crystals can easily get out of hand and injure others.

But to him, it didn't matter whether it was stable or unstable, as long as it contained magical power.

"Okay." Jiagu breathed a sigh of relief and agreed immediately.

The birth of the Hex Gem requires a long period of processing of the Hex Crystal through a stabilizing device.

If you just want Hex Crystals, then there is still a lot of stock in the Myrdalda family's warehouse.

"Lord Huo Jixing, when do you want it? We can prepare it for you as soon as possible." Jia Gu asked with a smile on his face.

"Tomorrow, okay?" Huo Jixing looked up at Jia Gu and spoke bluntly.

"Tomorrow?" Jia Gu looked surprised.

"Yes, I am going to visit Zaun. The Eye of Zuan is acting too unscrupulously."

Huo Jixing didn't hide anything and told him his next destination.

There must be an explanation for the attack on Leiser's garrison.

Whether it is the Eye of Zuan or the forces behind it, they must pay the price in blood.

Jia Gu looked at Huo Jixing with complicated eyes. When he saw the other person's expression was calm, his heart jumped involuntarily, and inexplicable fear quietly emerged in his heart.

He was well aware of Huo Jixing's abilities and methods, and he was both in awe and fear of this powerful being from the Noxus Empire.

However, when he thought of the miserable appearance of the soldiers of Leiser's garrison, he felt that it was natural. This is Noxian.

"I immediately ordered to go down and have warehouses from various places deliver the Hex crystals in stock."

Jagu took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions.

"Well, please excuse me. I hope that going to Zaun this time can solve all the problems."

After Huo Jixing finished speaking, he waved to Jia Gu and walked out of the restaurant.

This time he went to Zu'an. He did not plan to bring anyone else with him, but went alone.

He still remembered the mission specially assigned by Swain.

Piltover, cemetery area.

Autumn is sweeping across, the green trees are turning yellow, and fallen leaves are covering the grass, adding a sense of desolation to the area.

In this silent land, graves stand one after another, quietly telling stories of the past.

On the south side of the cemetery, a quiet atmosphere filled the air.

People wearing Piltover guard uniforms stood in line, their eyes focused on the coffins in front of them.

These coffins were placed there quietly, as if waiting for something.

"During the battle in the Zodiac Vault, a total of twelve brave Piltover law enforcement officials sacrificed their lives heroically."

"Their sacrifice was to defend the dignity of this great city."

A solemn voice sounded.

The faces of the Piltover guards were full of solemnity and solemnity. They knew that this moment was not only respect for the deceased, but also expectations for the future.

“They are mothers, they are fathers, they are sons, they are daughters.”

"And a hero to everyone."

Bang!Bang!Bang!Bang!
Suddenly, Pi City guards came out, raised their spears, pointed them at the sky, and fired in unison.

The dull gunfire broke the original tranquility and startled the birds in the surrounding jungle.

Afterwards, the Piltover guards put down their spears and stared at everything in front of them with solemn expressions.

The Pi City guards standing on both sides of the coffin began to move. They carefully moved the coffin and placed it into the cemetery that had already been dug.

Every movement they made was extremely solemn, as if they were dealing with something extremely sacred.

Caitlin walked to the cemetery, looking extremely sad.

Beside her was Wei wearing a blue uniform jacket.

The two gently sprinkled the dust in their hands, and the fine sand fell on the coffin, symbolizing their memory and respect for the deceased.

Bang!Bang!Bang!Bang!
The dull gunfire rang out again, echoing over the cemetery.

The dust slowly fell, burying the coffin.

Caitlin stared quietly at the solid soil in front of her, her eyes shining with determination.

At this special moment, her heart was filled with grief and reluctance.

But she must face it all with strength and give her last respects and blessings to the deceased.

The funeral in the cemetery came to an end, and the Piltover guards began to leave one after another.

In the end, only Caitlin and Vi were left, walking out of the cemetery side by side.

On the leaf-covered path, the two of them fell into silence, with no one speaking.

The battle that took place in the Zodiac vault had a profound impact on both of them.

Especially Wei, when she saw a robot that was almost the same as herself, she felt an inexplicable expectation in her heart.

“What is the Council going to do?”

Wei looked at the tombstones surrounding him and spoke to break the silence.

"I don't know yet, the parliament is still deliberating."

Caitlin shook her head slightly, thinking of the censure she encountered in the parliament, feeling helpless in her heart.

With the Day of Evolution approaching, Piltover has no time to think about it at this moment. He can only mobilize his forces into the city with the intention of suppressing all restless forces.

Just as they were walking out of the cemetery, a familiar figure appeared.

"Jace?"

Caitlin raised her eyebrows and spoke in confusion.

The tall man in a formal dress who walked over in front of him was none other than Jess Tallis.

He is also the youngest member of Parliament in Piltover.

"It seems I'm late."

When Jace saw Caitlin and Vi, he raised the white flowers in his hand and shook his head regretfully.

"Is there any news from the council?"

Caitlin's eyes flickered when she saw Jace's arrival, vaguely thinking that maybe something important was happening in the council.

"No, it's the news I got."

Jace walked to Caitlin's side and spoke in a solemn voice.

"Your Excellency Jagu mobilized the Hex crystals stored in various places and sent them to Myrdalda Castle."

"I don't know what he means by this move, but I think you should understand something since you have been to Myrdalda Castle."

Caitlin frowned, thinking of Huo Jixing and the Broken Tavern on Xingxing Avenue for no reason.

"is it him?"

Caitlin then told Jess exactly what she saw and heard.

"I don't know the specifics, but it may have something to do with the battle that took place on Stellar Avenue."

After hearing this, Jace frowned.

To the outside world, Jace is a talented inventor who has dedicated his life to protecting Piltover and the city's pursuit of progress.

But in the past, he did not handle such fame well, and was even burdened by it.

Just with the polish of time and the intrigues of the congressmen, Jace has grown up.

"Noxian?" Jace said hesitantly.

The relationship between the Myrdalda family and the Noxus Empire is well known in the Piltover Council.

The only people who can make the Myrdalda family go to war now are the Noxians.

Caitlin was thoughtful after hearing this, thinking of the people she had met in the Stellar Avenue Tavern before.

Although their accents are indeed very similar, which is commendable, with patois and emotion.

But in retrospect, Catelyn discerned a hidden Noxian accent.

"Thank you for the news, I will pay attention to the movements of the Myrdalda family." Caitlin said.

She and Jace would not doubt the Myrdaldas, as they would never abandon their wealth and status in Piltover.

And their current actions may be related to recent events.

Lower urban area.

The dirty streets were paved with stones of different sizes, and the light haze of Zaun filled the air.

Huo Jixing was dressed in casual clothes, with a long knife hanging on his waist, walking forward casually.

"It's still not enough. It's only a few dozen points to light up the next Qinglong constellation."

In his dark eyes, a dark green data stream flashed through, and the data panel unfolded.

【Quality: 520】

"I hope I can gain something in Zaun!"

Huo Jixing closed the data panel and walked deeper into the lower city.
