Chapter 14 The Retrograde of the Two Cities
"Who asked you to mine in the middle of the night! Have you forgotten the miners' rules? Damn it, look at it, because of you, this mine will never be used in the future!"
The manager of the small mine in the north of Zaun was looking angry at the moment, staring at the trembling and distraught middle-aged man in front of him, with fear in his eyes. Claire raised her head and said hastily: "No, no, no, I'm not mining.
I’m not mining!”
"Will it explode if the mine is not opened? You are on duty tonight, and you are the only one guarding the mine!" The manager glared at Claire, seeing the lava spewing out, the temperature... was really too high! And
If it cannot be controlled properly, the entire Zaun will be implicated!
Thinking of this, he even wanted to kick Claire.
"Manager, I really didn't mine. I heard the sound of the explosion, and then I went to the mine. When I went there, the mine had been collapsed by them. I..." The expression on his face gradually changed.
Terrible, Claire yelled loudly: "I saw them, they saw it too, they dug the mine. They are crawling up under the deep pit. They are monsters, they are monsters!"
"You're still lying!"
Hearing that Claire was still talking nonsense, the manager became angry. Monster? Monster from Zu An? Under the protection of Goddess Janna and Master Lin Wen, Zu An is impregnable! Monster? Claire is just worried about taking responsibility, and then
He's just lying! But you must know that if something goes wrong in the mine, he is the one who has to bear the responsibility.
Because he failed in his duty!
Thinking of this, the manager raised his foot and kicked Claire on the shoulder, then pointed at his face and cursed loudly: "Damn bastard, you are still lying now that things have come to this, you, you are true
Do you want to die? Did I look too gentle after washing my hands in the golden basin? Have you forgotten what I used to do?"
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"
It was at this moment that a man wearing a law enforcement officer's clothes and a gear seal on his chest knocked away the manager.
Carrying a beautiful gold-and-blue Hex spear on his back, a Hex kinetic sword hanging on his waist, and wearing a combat hat, this is the captain of Piltover's law enforcement officer.
"Captain, how is the situation now?" After being hit by the captain of the law enforcement officer, the manager was not only not angry, but immediately approached him eagerly, and then shouted loudly next to the law enforcement officer: "I
We woke up everyone in their sleep immediately. The explosion didn't hurt any of us, right?"
"You did a great job, Mr. Manager."
Skye turned back, glanced at him, and then looked at Claire, who was sitting on the ground in despair.
"Tell me, sir, you are on duty tonight to guard the mine, right?"
"It was him, the captain of the law enforcement officer. This damn bastard turned on the machine late at night. Because of his wrong operation, it caused the explosion." The manager immediately said loudly, "He also said that a monster appeared and it was caused by the monster.
The machine exploded..."
"Everything I said is true!" Claire retorted loudly. He held his head and shouted in pain: "There are really monsters, thousands of monsters, I saw it with my own eyes!"
"It's over, everything is over. Under the ground where we live, there is not a sea, but a terrifying purple black hole!"
"It's over, it's over for all of us! We're all going to die, we're all going to die!"
"ah!"
He kicked Claire hard on the side of the face. Skye's powerful kick directly kicked Claire away. Suppressing his anger and stepping forward, Skye lowered his body and pinched Claire's collar.
Behind him is the manager who wants to stop Skye from committing violence.
Claire covered her face in fear. On the ground not far away were two blood-stained teeth, his.
"You, you..." The pain made Claire calm down, and he looked at Skye in front of him in confusion.
Look at the captain of the law enforcement officer.
"Please look into my eyes, sir." Skye said in a low voice and looked into Claire's eyes.
Skye's eyes are not big, but at this moment, in his blue pupils, there is confidence and tenacity. He stares closely into Claire's eyes, and uses force to tighten his collar.
, do not let the other party avoid your sight.
"Do you know? While you are here holding your head and shouting that it's over, our law enforcement officers have already met the monsters you mentioned. While you are here desperately shouting that everyone is going to die, there are people now.
I’m fighting monsters for you!”
"Please tell me, what happened the moment you approached the mine, and what did you see there? Tell me!" Skye's voice continued to grow louder, until later it turned into a low roar.
Behind him, the manager was startled.
Claire...is everything he said true?
Are there really monsters underground in Zaun?
"Monsters, I saw a group of monsters, captain of the law enforcement officer." Claire looked into Skye's eyes, and in his eyes, Claire saw hope.
Claire's mood was gradually stabilized by Skye.
"They are on all fours, have no eyes, and have huge teeth. Each of them is the size of a normal person, and some are even twice as big as me. They look like crocodiles, but they also look like giant leeches. Their teeth
The skin, the skin looks very hard, it’s blue and purple armor.”
"What about the quantity?"
"I couldn't see it clearly. I was frightened after just one glance, but what I am sure of is that there are many, many more." Claire had completely calmed down and told Skele what she had seen and guessed: "
I guessed that they were dug up from the ground. The machine was touched by them and started to stir. By the time I arrived, the crane and the Hex Energy Column had been destroyed, and the explosion created a larger crater. They were all
Welled up."
"Thousands... at least several thousand, densely packed. I saw countless holes, big holes, which must have been drilled by them!"
"Thousands..." Skye gradually stood up.
Law enforcement officers surrounded the northern mine, the power and Hex were destroyed, and the place was dark.
This is why he came to find Claire, he had to know the quantity...
Moreover, you need to know how they appear.
Are there thousands of monsters underground?
"Thank you for your reply. Now, please leave this place with the manager as soon as possible. This place will become a blocked area."
Skye packed up his Hex spear and prepared to run towards the dark mining area.
Thinking of something, he looked at Claire again and said apologetically: "You are an innocent victim. If you feel that I have hurt you, you can go to the police station in Pi City and tell you afterwards. Remember, in Pi City,
Our police stations are not connected to each other."
"As a law enforcement officer, I will be punished if I use violence against innocent residents. Don't worry, you will get a good compensation."
Claire shook her head crazily, opened her mouth, revealing the missing tooth cavity, and asked Skyle loudly:
"I, how can I help you?"
Skye shook his head calmly: "No, sir, you can't help me."
"Getting out of here is the biggest favor you can do for me."
"Manager, please take him out of here."
"Yes, yes, I understand." The manager immediately came up and supported Claire on the ground.
"Let's go, Claire, I'm sorry, I wronged you..." the manager said softly.
Claire nodded, got up and walked towards the south with the manager. Claire turned back.
Then they saw that the law enforcement officer captain had rushed towards the mining area which was burning with fire and the temperature was frightening without hesitation.
Somehow.
Claire suddenly felt her nose was a little sore.
"wishing all the best."
"May the haze not enter your home."
