A magic carriage drives through the streets of Piltover.
This vehicle, which would look weird anywhere else in Runeterra, blends right in here.
Piltover has built many roads specifically for magic carriages in a short period of time, so driving is basically smooth and there are many areas that can be reached.
"We have been here for so many days, why do I always feel like you are avoiding something?" Lux asked suspiciously, sitting in the passenger seat.
"What are you talking about!"
Chai Anping reached out and hit her on the head: "Aren't we just hiding now?"
He even rubbed off the Crownguard family mark on the outside of the car.
"Hmm."
Lux groaned: "You have to hide this even from your friends here?"
"Isn't this putting you first?"
Lux:???
Of course Chai Anping knew what this little girl was thinking, but he had already found traces of Caitlin. She had gone to Bilgewater to investigate the waters of Bilgewater a long time ago because of the Soul Erosion Night.
After all, if Bilgewater is hit by a disaster, Piltover will be next, so they go there every year to conduct a hazard assessment.
So Lux really didn’t want to see her.
"Okay, okay, I'll take you to Zu'an for a walk in the evening."
Piltover is very well-informed. The city is not only equipped with sound transmission tubes for communication, but also has machines that send news from various places from the air.
The daily headlines in Piltover's newspapers these days are naturally the unprecedented battle between Demacia and Noxus. This war sweeping across the entire northern continent will affect the pattern of the entire mortal world. If Noxus really defeats Demacia
West Asia, then there will be no mortal city-states in this world that can resist him.
When the time comes, Pi City will have no choice but to surrender, and it won't care about the fact that it once attacked the Masons.
"Read today's newspaper!"
Lux suddenly pushed the newspaper in her hand over.
"I'm driving the car."
"Use your alchemical tentacles!"
"I want to hear your beautiful voice read the news."
Lux: "..."
Giving Chai Anping a few looks, Lux began to read today's front page: "The Noxian naval fleet made a surprise attack on the port of the Royal Capital of Demacia..."
"Oh, I didn't expect Noxus to arrange such a plan!"
This is directly preparing to secretly assassinate Chen Cang and bring down the nobles of Demacia!
"Yeah! But they failed!"
Lux quickly read out the rest of the news: "Demacia has set up a large number of hidden turrets and dragon cavalry in the strait. Noxus' invincible steel fleet is facing the fire oil falling all over the sky.
After several rounds of shelling in the capital of West Asia, the surprise attack was declared a failure..."
"It seems that Marshal Tiana has been prepared for a long time." Chai Anping said with emotion.
"After all, the royal capital has a seaport, and our navy is relatively weak."
"Did the newspaper say what happened on the main battlefield? Did the Marshal reach Noxus's lair?"
"Well, it seems to be coming soon - those protoss don't seem to care at all." Lux's face showed a look of disdain: "It's true that after Pantheon was resurrected, he didn't care about the life or death of humans."
"After winning this battle, the pale witch may not stay in Demacia, but I have already paid attention in advance. She will definitely find an opportunity to go on an expedition together, especially the order army that finally arrived.
Sure enough, I found a few people acting suspiciously...
If she dares to come back with those identities, Marshal Tiana should be able to seize the opportunity to eliminate this threat.
This lich is most likely in Noxus now, and I don’t know if the ‘New Royal Court’ built on the Immortal Fortress has anything to do with her.”
Lux continued: "It is said that the new emperor is a pro-peace faction. He may be waiting for an opportunity to surrender. After all, he seems to be planning to cancel the name of the empire 'Noxus'."
Strictly speaking, if the new emperor really surrenders, Demacia will have no reason to continue attacking.
After all, this war is still the "War of Guardians" in name only. According to Demacia's code of honor, even if it is a war, they will not violate basic moral principles.
"If we surrender, Marshal Tiana will definitely kill the Noxians with a knife."
"That's just a matter for a group of ministers to argue about. But speaking of Noxus' collapse so suddenly, it turns out that the noble circles in Demacia have always been afraid that they would suddenly start a war."
The two of them chatted about the situation on the mainland and returned to the suburban courtyard where they temporarily rented.
Although there is the Shelley Chamber of Commerce here and it also has a pivotal position in the oligarchic council, Chai Anping still has no plans to expose it until he knows the next step of the Star Spirit.
There are at least two major events that will attract the attention of the protoss:
First, the appearance of Foego on the Shadow Island. If he rules the undead and infests the entire mortal world like in the original plot, then the protoss who are the culprits cannot escape the blame.
Second, the resurrection of the Frost Mother of Freljord. After taking control of the world, it is impossible for the protoss to allow the birth or resurrection of such a high-level god.
There may be a third event in the future - the return of Mordekaiser, and there will be more headaches for the protoss!
Chai Anping didn't know what opportunity Fiddlesticks was waiting for in being so excited, but it was probably related to these events. The so-called "coming soon" of these big guys may have a different time scale than that of young people like him, so it's still
Can not be sure……
However, with the way he is currently raising Lux and living in a cultural capital like Piltover, it is not a problem for him to stay here for several months or even years.
Sitting together in the courtyard, watching the sun set over the distant strait, Lux let out a brisk sigh.
"It's time to cook, Mr. Shelley."
"Okay, okay, Your Highness Laxana~"
Chai Anping stood up, agreed in a doting tone, and then leaned over to ask her for a kiss: "Eat fish steak tonight."
"Great!"
Lux was lying alone on the armchair, squinting her eyes and feeling the cool wind blowing from the distance. Pi City is indeed a livable city, and here she does not need to act like an aristocrat, so she wears simple and refreshing clothes every day.
You can follow Chai Anping around for clothes.
She can live such a peaceful life for the rest of her life!
"Mr. Shelley!" She shouted her husband's name loudly, not looking like a lady.
"What's wrong?"
"Please help your dear wife squeeze a glass of juice first, thank you."
"It's ready, it's ready."
Lux likes sour and sweet tastes, so Chai An usually prepares fruits such as lemons. There are many kinds of fruits in Pi City, and he can come up with something new for Lux every day.
Finally, two mint leaves were placed on the rim of the glass. Satisfied, Chai Anping let his alchemical tentacles deliver the drink.
