Chapter695 Preparations before peace talks

No. 36, Iron Alley, Imperial Avenue, Inner City of the Immortal Fortress.

A man dressed as a warrior opened the door hesitantly and walked into the pharmacy called [Lockheed Pharmacy Workshop].

The pharmacy does not occupy a large area and is located in a quite remote location. Considering that this is an Imperial Avenue where land is at a premium, warriors can understand why this pharmacy chose to open here.

Perhaps it is because the security of the Immortal Fortress has been very chaotic recently, with bandits appearing frequently and the army under martial law. There are currently no customers in the store. There is only a good-looking black-haired girl sitting at the table wearing a very elegant looking mage robe.

Finally, he smiled to himself.



Facing the sudden smile, the warrior's heartbeat accelerated by half a beat.

What a beautiful girl, with a calm and steady temperament.

"I don't know what to call Miss?"

"You can call me Sherrill. What potion does this guest want to buy?"

The voice of the black-haired girl named Sheryl was as beautiful as her face. Fortunately, the warrior was not a man who had never seen the world, so he quickly suppressed the movement in his heart to avoid appearing rude.

"I heard that you sell ampoules of medicine that can be injected into the body. I want to buy three bottles of wound medicine and one bottle of antidote. The price is not an issue."

"Do you need a syringe?"

"Thank you, I won't need the syringe."

"OK, just a second."

Hearing this, Sheryl moved lightly and took four bottles of medicine from the container behind her and placed them on the counter.

Each bottle of medicine is packed in a sealed glass ampoule. Unlike cork-type medicine bottles, medicines in ampoules can be stored for a longer time. Generally speaking, medicines are of higher quality, especially they can be injected directly with a syringe.

, improve the efficacy.

After checking that the color of the medicine in the ampoule was consistent with what the intelligence agent said, the warrior nodded.

"How much?"

"Eighteen silver coins for three bottles of healing potion and six silver coins for the antidote, a total of twenty-four silver coins."

Hiss...so expensive!

Ordering all the silver coins from the bag, the distressed warrior put the coins on the counter without hesitation with a generous smile, as if delaying for a second would make him look stingy.

"Thank you. If it works well, I will come again."

"Guests, please walk slowly~"

Putting away the silver coins with a smile, the black-haired girl watched the customer leave. When the door was closed, the smile on her face quickly faded.

Just because she smiles doesn't mean she's happy.

"Sheryl, the eldest sister just contacted Blake, we have to terminate the operation."

The inner door of the pharmacy opened, and the first person to walk out was Lieno, a blond girl dressed in frivolous leather armor who looked a bit dissolute. Next to Lieno was a slightly thin and thin figure holding a crystal ball.

young male mage,

The young mage Blake is the spell support provided by Black Rose to the [Shadow] organization. However, judging from Blake's languid state, it is obvious that he has just done some extreme sports.

After changing the door sign that said the store was closed, Sherrill locked the door and sat on a chair.

Glancing at Lieno, whose face was glowing red, and Blake, whose cheekbones were sunken and eyes were dull, Sheryl sighed inwardly.

"Tell me about the situation."

Lieno winked at Blake, then lit a cigarette and started to smoke by herself. The smoky smoke made Sheryl frown, but she couldn't say anything.

After so many years, with so much work pressure, it is inevitable that Lieno will undergo some changes. During the days when she lived in St. Zachary Orphanage, she did the same thing, but the difference was that her choice was to survive.

, and Lieno’s choice is for pleasure.

While Sheryl was sighing, Blake placed the crystal ball on the counter tremblingly.

"Press...hiss...According to the latest information obtained from Boss Camille, Darkwill may have to negotiate with the Demon Faced Lord of the Emerald Territory and voluntarily give up control of the Immortal Fortress and the Empire. Listen to Boss Camille

In his tone, the matter is already close to ten,

Because of this, Chief Camille issued an order to temporarily stop all activities except intelligence collection, and the organization officially entered a dormant period."

Exhaling an ambiguous smoke at Blake, Lieno stuck out her flexible tongue and smiled.

"In other words, we can finally have a vacation~ Sheryl, this is a rare opportunity. I am going to go to Bilgewater. Blake will go with me. Do you want to come with us?"

"Is it the hibernation period... I won't do it. Even if it is the hibernation period, this stronghold still needs someone to maintain it."

Under Lieno's expectant eyes, Cheryl shook her head.

For Sheryl, this is not a happy thing,

Before being rescued by Camille, she struggled desperately in the quagmire of the empire just to survive. She wanted to change something but was unable to do so. After joining the [Shadow] organization, she gained a part of the power that she had never imagined.

Knowing the many darkness hidden under the glory of the empire,

She understood why the empire kept winning, but it was difficult for the people's lives to improve.

The wealth plundered by foreign wars and domestic exploitation have stayed in the aristocratic class. The waterfalls of gold coins were intercepted by greedy mouths at the spire of the immortal fortress. How can they be sprinkled on the earth like spring rain, and the benefits are

Ten thousand people?

The evil of St. Zachary's Orphanage is only part of it. There are more blood-sucking pustules that breed at the roots of the big tree of the Empire. They are greedy and evil. A single pull can involve more than half of the root system, bringing deep consequences to the Empire.

The pain in the bone marrow and all the pain turned into resistance to change and became the reason for the empire to continue to be corrupt.

Under this situation, the empire could only cover up its natural flaws through endless foreign wars. Unfortunately, Lord Demon Face's vigorous military action against the southern warlords broke the plan of Lord Darkwill, and the Shadow Organization

As the situation was disrupted, the conflicts in the empire gradually became more intense and increasingly surfaced.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The contradiction between the old aristocracy and the new aristocracy, the contradiction between the civilians and the aristocracy of the empire, the uneven distribution of wealth, the lack of control and restraint, and the overriding military power.

Strict laws and unkind taxes...

More and more people in the empire have seen the darkness of the empire. According to the intelligence collected by Shadow, there are at least six such hidden resistance organizations all over the northern border of the empire. In addition to [Shadow], there are at least six.

The reason why it has not completely erupted yet is that, in addition to the brutal military suppression of the Darkwill family, the military operations of the Emerald Territory are the most important reason.

Nowadays, the warlord troubles in the southern border of the empire have been quelled by the Emerald Territory. After the war, the southern border of the empire is sparsely populated and has large tracts of land resources.

Except for those people who are unwilling to leave their hometown, many people from the north have brought their families to the Emerald Territory and joined the immigrant army under the arrangement of the Emerald Territory. While being slapped in the face, it can be regarded as a great relief to the empire.

internal contradictions.

The people's eyes are sharp. It goes without saying which life is better between Fidelity and the Immortal Fortress. The reason why she stayed in the Shadow Organization was not only to repay Camille's kindness, but also to do something useful for the empire.

meaningful things.

If Darkwill successfully negotiates peace with the Emerald Territory, will the Shadow Organization be disbanded? Where should she go?

A somewhat confused Sheryl rubbed her brows: "When are you leaving?"

"Tomorrow, I'm going to make some preparations with Blake before the long journey."



In the lower city of the Immortal Fortress, a top-secret stronghold belonging to the Shadow Organization, a lonely figure lit the candlestick in the room with a flint.

Glowing crystals are dotted on the ceiling, refracting the candlelight into gem-like colored light.

Inside the six-pillar copper lampstand, special flame-resistant wax oil burned steadily. The flames dispelled the darkness in the room and illuminated the solemn, delicate and beautiful face of the girl in front of the Hex Communication crystal ball.

The girl with a calm face took off her clothes, opened the closet, took out the dress, and put it on neatly. Even though she was holding a very complicated women's dress, the girl did not spend more than three minutes getting dressed.

Gently closing the cabinet door, the girl stood in front of the full-length mirror, adjusting her clothes and adjusting the magic crystal sword at her waist. After confirming that everything was correct, the girl left the stronghold.

There were lamp poles of fluorite and prismarine on both sides of the sunless stone road. A carriage belonging to Black Rose was parked in the middle of the road. The girl nodded to the coachman, opened the carriage door, and sat uprightly a man in a black dress.

, next to a charming woman.

The door was closed, and under the control of the driver, the carriage moved slowly toward the upper city.

"Good day, Ms. LeBlanc."

"Sister Camille, please relax, there is nothing official today, just call me sister."

The tall lady looked at the girl sitting opposite her with a smile, until the girl softly called "Sister LeBlanc", the lady's smile became much brighter.

The woman who looked like a noble lady was none other than LeBlanc, the master of the Black Rose Organization, the overseer of the Noxus Empire, and known as the Pale Witch.

Sitting in front of Camille, LeBlanc lamented Lester's ability to discover talents more and more.

I don’t know how Lester found such a ruthless and resolute girl in Piltover. Even if Black Rose is full of talents, it is difficult to find a rare general like Camille.

It is a pity that Camille has no magical talent, otherwise LeBlanc would be willing to accept another female apprentice who is destined to become her sister.

"Your teacher is very satisfied with the results of your efforts. The information provided by Ying is enough for your teacher to eradicate those imperial cancers. Before formal negotiations, your teacher wants to hear your personal opinion."

Camille nodded, suppressing the expectation in her heart.

"clear."

The carriage went all the way up, and it took about half an hour to reach Black Thorn Rose Street without any hindrance.

Following LeBlanc into the mansion, Camille finally met the man she had longed for. She wanted to say something, but she felt a little reserved and didn't know what to do.

LeBlanc smiled and took the initiative to leave the room, leaving the space for the two people who had a "deep master-disciple relationship".

"teacher……"

"Camille, sit here, I am not your commander now, and you are not my subordinate."

Lester, who was sitting on the sofa, patted the empty seat on his right and hesitated for a moment. Camille chose to sit down obediently.

After pouring a cup of tea for Camille, Lester looked at Camille who had completely grown into a beautiful girl, feeling a little sad.

"It's been more than ten years since you came to Immortal Fortress, right? Have you ever missed home?"

"A little bit, but... I don't think too much about it as I'm busy at work. Plus, I often communicate with my father and others through letters. With Stevan inheriting the family, the family's development is going smoothly, and I don't have anything to worry about.

things.

Now that I think about it, if I had stayed in the family, it might have caused some conflicts in the family."

Recalling the different evaluations of herself and Stevan by her family members, Camille smiled.

"It would be more suitable for me to leave Piltover with my teacher."

Lester took a sip of tea and sighed.

"Camille, you are so sensible. The Philos family should be proud of you."

"Thank you teacher for your praise."

"Speaking of which, Camille, you are also sixteen this year, right? After this matter is finished, I should organize a coming-of-age ceremony for you so that you can enjoy your time in Piltover."

After nodding in thanks, Camille asked.

"Teacher, does the Emerald Territory really want to negotiate peace with the Darkwill family?"

Lester narrowed his eyes and said calmly.

"It's called peace talks, but it's actually just giving up the throne. The people want it. Brown knows that his situation is over, and he is prepared to make his defeat look good, so as not to completely break his face.

Once the civil war in the empire begins, even if we can suppress others with force, the empire will be in turmoil for more than ten years.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! This is not a good thing for us and the Darkwill family. I want to rule the empire legitimately, and Brown wants to stay away from the center of the empire decently.

Hit it off immediately.

No matter how you say it, I can be regarded as a favor from the Darkwill family. If it weren't for the support of Nadarz, I wouldn't be able to establish the Emerald Territory. If I had to kill all the descendants of Nadarz, if it was not necessary,

It’s also very difficult to do this.”

Camille heard the implication and couldn't help but feel a shiver in her heart.

It seems that the teacher has indeed considered killing all the Darkwill family.

As if he saw what Camille was thinking, Lester had a smile on his face.

"There is nothing to hide from you. Brown is ready to voluntarily withdraw from the Immortal Fortress and give me the position of commander-in-chief of the empire. In exchange, he will be allowed to retire in the northern border and gain a certain degree of autonomy.

Being able to feel comfortable away from the Immortal Fortress while still being his lord,

The northern border of the empire is close to the Freljord Icefield. Although we have reached a strategic agreement with the Frostguard clan, there are still many Freljord barbarians who break away from the tribe and invade the border villages every year. It is still quite chaotic there.

Missing a border lord,

Since he took the initiative to go there, it can be regarded as playing a role in contributing to the country. I can't find any reason to refuse.

In this case, we need to consider Brown's safety. If he is successfully assassinated by some forces and unable to hand over power, it will be us who will be in trouble."

"So that's it...then, what will the teacher do with those nobles after he rules the empire?"

Responding to Camille's gaze, Leicester said softly.

"Of course, the nobles will be put on public trial based on the information and evidence you provided. The empire does not need blood-sucking moths."
