Lux and his party, who were underground, obviously didn't know what kind of situation Piltover and Zaun were in as the mine collapsed.
At this time, everyone, including Lux, was racing against time to collect data and materials in the laboratory.
Although no one except Lux and Ino could understand the words on these documents at all, it didn't matter. As long as they were found on paper with words on them, there would be absolutely no problem.
In this way, after a lot of intense work, everyone sorted out a pile of experimental materials and experimental records. Others turned on the miner's lamp or expedition lamp to look for it, handed it to Lux for preliminary screening, and then placed it in volumes one by one.
around.
During this process, the location of the laboratory's backup exit has also been determined.
The plants that Janna said "peeped out of the wall" actually came out through the vent. No one could get out of that vent, and it was also seriously collapsed. Currently, the only way to leave the laboratory was a water channel.
Considering the complex 3D cobweb structure of Zaun's underground river, leaving underwater is obviously not a good option - wouldn't it be troublesome if we followed the current directly into the sea?
Under this situation, everyone unanimously focused their attention on Lux.
"There are not only backup exits here." Lux repeated Kalya's words, "In addition, there should be backup security systems. The underground laboratory must have an emergency response plan. As long as the emergency response plan is found, we can even
You can go out through the front door."
"How many years is this laboratory?" Sevika looked at Lux with some suspicion, "What kind of plan are you talking about? Is it still effective?"
"Don't look down on magic, Ms. Severka." A confident smile appeared on Lux's face, "Just don't worry!"
Just like that, Lux handed the sword to Ino, and then the two began to quickly search for emergency response plans in the huge pile of documents.
Others who had free time found a relatively open location and started to light a fire.
Take advantage of this time to at least get some food to fill your stomach!
……………………
Lux and Ino soon had their first harvest.
In a document about daily maintenance of the laboratory, she found how to activate the lighting device - after injecting magic into a translucent ore switch, several areas in the front of the laboratory lit up.
Great, this is obviously a good start.
When the soft magical light appeared above their heads, everyone who was extremely nervous now relaxed a little. In such a large laboratory, their vision of torches and exploration lights was limited and not enough.
Giving them a sense of security, Lux can quickly become the center of the team, which is also related to her ability to bring light.
Now, the entire laboratory area is lit up, and everyone naturally feels a sense of relief.
Considering that it was already late at night, several children could not help but yawn under the soft magic light.
"Go to sleep, let's all rest." After Fandel realized this, he took off his coat and spread it on the ground, "Wei, and Bao Bao——Craig and Milo, come here and rest, you guys
The amount of exercise today seriously exceeded the standard!”
After hearing what Fandel said, several children gathered over one after another, and Benso and others also took off their miner's coats and laid out a floor for them, although it was not very comfortable, but at least they could sleep on it.
Lux, who was sorting documents not far away, stood up and wanted to "turn off the lights" in the room where they rested, but Fander waved his hand towards her.
Lux blinked, then lowered her head in understanding.
In this way, after whispering for a while, the four children finally fell asleep - Clegg snored evenly and calmly, Milo made a whistle-like sound from time to time, and Bao Bao huddled tightly in Wei's arms.
Li, and Wei couldn't help but grin because her arms were a little numb.
Seeing that the children finally fell asleep, Fandel and others also let out a long breath. They gathered together to briefly discuss a few sentences in it, and soon divided into two groups, led by Fandel and Benso respectively, taking turns.
rest.
After the grouping was completed, Benso's group went to the next room to sleep first, while Fandel came to Lux's side.
"You should also rest early." The tall Fander lowered his voice and said to Lux, "Even if we find a way to leave now, everyone has no strength anymore."
"The sooner the better." Lacus threw a copy of the "Health Management Regulations" into the pile of "useless documents" next to her, and answered quickly, "Think about the explosion later, I'm afraid this matter
It's more serious than you think. Maybe you don't know the Noxians, but I know them very well."
"Noxus..." Fander shook his head, "I only know that many businesses in the black market are related to them, but I have never heard any other information about them - the trouble they brought to me is far less than that of Birgi
The water from Walter is full of rats.”
"We don't have much intelligence right now, so we're not sure enough about Noxus' intentions." Lux picked up a new document, "But at least we can be sure that they are definitely not good people -"
"I do have some say in Noxus." Just as Lux was flipping through the documents, Mr. Shadow, who was tied up in the corner, took the initiative and said, "The influence of Noxus on Piltover and Zaun."
, it’s much deeper than you think!”
"Oh? It seems you know something?" Lux blinked, "Wait a minute, I remembered it. When talking about the shimmer potion, you seemed very excited, and you also mentioned the Noxians?
"
"Of course I am excited." Mr. Shadow finally said after hesitating for a moment, "I am an Ionian - my homeland is being trampled by Noxian invaders, how can I not be excited?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Then why didn't you stay in Ionia to fight the invaders?" Lux raised her eyebrows subconsciously, "Instead, you ran to Zaun to take shelter?"
"I am a member of the Shadow Stream, a member of the Brotherhood!" Speaking of this topic, Mr. Shadow proudly puffed up his chest, "My Shadow Blade once drank the blood of the invaders!"
"You haven't answered my question yet, why did you leave Ionia?"
"Because we discovered that the Noxians have found some means to pollute the First Land." Mr. Shadow said in a heavy tone, "They used some dangerous potions. Even if the user dies, the soul will be restless.
Destroying the balance of the spiritual world in the First Land - I came to Zaun after tracing the clues of these potions."
"That's the shimmering potion you mentioned before?"
"That's right." Mr. Shadow said calmly, "Silko is one of Zaun's biggest intelligence chiefs, and Finn is also from Ionia. I might as well work for them and look for Shimmer on the way.
Traces of the potion.”
"But it was never found?"
"Finn is an out-and-out waste, and Hilko..." Mr. Shadow snorted dissatisfied, "He has been wary of me, and now it seems that he has never been concerned about the shimmering potion.
Reveal it to me."
"None of us are honest." At this point, Hilko, who had been silently sizing up his surroundings before, finally took the initiative to speak, "You claimed that you were exiled by the Kinkou because of your personal style. This is obviously a lie...
Well, it seems that your money has not really been sent to the hands of those flesh and blood in the dark alley?"
"There are special channels in the dark alley to exchange them for what Shadow Stream needs." Mr. Shadow showed a proud look, "This low-level cover-up just fits your dirty guesses, so my identity has been well hidden.
,If you weren’t such a cunning guy, you wouldn’t trust anyone——”
"This is not distrust, but a wise choice." Hilko, who was repeatedly ridiculed, finally couldn't help but raise his tone, "I spent a lot of money on you, but you showed a greedy attitude.
, it seems that he may die on a woman’s belly one day. If I tell you the news about Shimmer, who knows if you will regard it as a gadget to enhance your interest——"
"Be quiet." Fandel interrupted them, and then pointed at Wei, who was chirping, "The children are still sleeping!"
"...Okay." Mr. Shadow glared at Silko, "Anyway, when it comes to understanding Noxus, I'm afraid no one in the entire Zaun can surpass me."
"May the breeze of the newly born land clear away the fog, and may the night songs sing harmoniously in your sweet dreams forever." Lux said two sentences in Ionian with a brisk tone, "Speaking of which, I
One of my best friends is also an Ionian."
"Did you learn this sentence from her?" Mr. Shadow said a little surprised, "Well, it has a bit of Zhiyun and Jialin's accent."
"She is an orphan evacuated from Galen." Lux explained, "Demacia took advantage of the fact that the Noxian navy had not completely blocked the coastline and picked up several groups of children from Ionia - unfortunately, we can do this
There’s only so much left.”
"...I am very grateful for your country's help, although I don't even know the country of Demacia." After hesitating for a moment, Mr. Shadow struggled to stand up, as if he wanted to salute Lux, "Sorry, Lax Miss Si, before I——"
"Let's talk about the apology later." Lux waved her hand, motioning for Fander to stop Mr. Shadow from jumping up, "If possible, I hope to get some news about Noxus from you - especially What happened between Noxus and Zaun, Noxus and Piltover, it will help to understand the situation we are facing today."
"Of course." Mr. Shadow sat back in the corner, "Let's start with what I discovered...the Noxian arms trade - the reason why I came to Zaun was because we discovered that Nok The Sarsians have added a large number of new special equipment and equipment, as well as some dangerous agents and explosives..."
"I received the order from Shadow Stream and left the Land of the Newborn in Weili. I pretended to be an ordinary refugee and was sold into the mines of Zaun..."
"Here, I met Finn. He and I are from the same hometown, but he doesn't seem to have much attachment or love for the land of birth, but at least he gave me some connections..."
"Later, through Finn's relationship, I met Hilko. He seemed to want to curry favor with Hilko, so he introduced me to work for Hilko to collect intelligence..."
"There is very little information about Shimmer in the dark alley. Even when I was working under Finn and Hilko as intelligence agents, I almost never came into contact with the desired content..."
"But the tentacles of the Noxians have long since reached Piltover and Zaun. I have seen the War Masons more than once. Those disgusting guys, I can smell the stench on their bodies with my eyes closed..."
"In the dark alleys, many businesses have been taken over by Noxians. Although the Zaun people are doing the work, the sweat is all for Noxus - I once said to Silko intentionally or unintentionally After all this, I have said that many records are unclear, and the profits have disappeared, but that idiot has completely targeted the people of Piltover..."
Hilko took the pipe from Fander's hand with some embarrassment.
"In addition to Zaun, Piltover also has a close relationship with the Noxians. I can see clear Noxian marks on many high-class people, including that one... Myrdalda."
"Midarda?"
Hearing this name, Fandel and Hilko's eyes widened almost at the same time.
"That's right, Midarda, their battle flag once appeared in Tivasir, I will not admit it..."
Fandel and Hilko looked at each other.
"I always thought that the War Masons were looking for the source of the Glimmer Potion just like me. I thought they were just simple traders, but now it seems that their target should be this laboratory."
"Why do you say that?" Hilko put down his pipe. "A group of masons would be interested in a plant laboratory?"
"The war masons are not masons, they are spies." Mr. Shadow glanced at Silko disdainfully, "That's what the Noxians are like in Ionia. They are frantically looking for all magic relics and magic-related things.
Even if the utensils offend a lot of things they can't afford to offend, or even affect military operations, they still have no intention of giving up - we even caught several big fish this way."
Speaking of this, Mr. Shadow's tone was once again filled with pride.
Silko was obviously being ridiculed by him, but there was a hint of envy in his eyes when he looked at him.
"The Noxians seem to be researching something extraordinary. They don't care about the balance between the spiritual world and the physical world. Even though they have suffered a lot, they still plunder the land." Mr. Shadow organized his words and continued,
"The Vastayans are now on our side, and the bastards of those Noxians are evident..."
Then, just when Fander was about to ask the vastayas, Ino, who had been working silently on the side, suddenly raised his hand.
"Found it!"
In her hand, she held a copy of the "Special Safety Regulations".
