The sky of the Immortal Fortress rarely encounters a day when the clouds disperse and the sun shines.

Therefore, when the warm winter sun shines through the heavy clouds and shines on the earth, many families living in the Immortal Fortress involuntarily move out of their homes, where the bedding and beds have been soaked by the cold winter.

And Julian, who was walking on the street, rarely saw happiness in the eyes of these ordinary people who were basking in the sun and talking about their parents' shortcomings.

These people's demands are never high,

A house that can protect you from the cold, a down-to-earth mother-in-law, a lively and healthy son, and some extra money at home are enough to win their sincerity.

But why does the commander-in-chief want to deprive him of all these things? He obviously has the most supreme power in the world and the love of thousands of people, but he wants to destroy them one by one with his own hands.

Is this the terrible greed that the general talks about?

These days, Julian has been thinking,

Having it all, yet wanting more,

I want the majesty of deciding life and death with one word, and I also want the glory of a son inheriting his father’s legacy;

I want to live forever, and I want my family to last forever;

But what they got in exchange was the disengagement of the nobles and the panic of the people.

Without all this,

Brown Darkwill may be the greatest warlord in Noxian history.

His will will be the will of the world, and his orders will be carried out by countless passionate men like Julian, regardless of their lives.

Instead of being forced to stand on opposite sides like now.

"What are you thinking about? I've been looking at you a few times over there." His silent trance was interrupted, and his body was lightly bumped. The moment he passed by, an extremely low-pitched voice floated into Julian's ears.

Suddenly woke up————

Yes, now he is no longer a good warrior of Noxus, but a spy who entered the Immortal Fortress with a deep purpose to explore and get information!

Thinking of this, Julian let out a breath, glanced calmly at the armed soldiers standing on the street corner, turned around and disappeared into the crowd, then shook off the gaze of the soldiers on guard.

He kept walking forward until he turned into an alley and came face to face with a man who was leaning near the entrance of the alley looking idle and decadent. When the man turned to look at him again,

There was not a single soul in the alley anymore.

And when Julian showed up again, he had already entered a house,

On the outside, this house looks like an ordinary dilapidated house.

But after entering, it is a completely different world.

"You're here."

He lifted up the floor and walked down the tunnel. As his vision dimmed and then brightened, he was already looking at a basement.

In the basement with an area of ​​less than five square meters, seven or eight people stood tightly around a table, and the leader of them was Swain, the leader of the secret society code-named "Black Crow".

Since the discussion meeting of the secret society that day,

Swain immediately selected a group of people and sneaked into the Immortal Fortress with the documents given by Queletta.

This group of people was led by Swain himself, and then brought the strongest Julian. Yonat, who had been responsible for intelligence and assassination work, strongly requested the Akali Meimu mother and daughter who came with the team.

, and a few elite warriors who are proficient in lurking and camouflaging methods, a total of ten people.

The purpose of these ten people entering the city was to gather information and find ways to disrupt the imperial army's expedition to Kalamanda.

In addition to these ten people, the rest of the secret society, led by the oldest Leto and assisted by Mela and others, continued to deal with Korlac's troops in the long wilderness in the north, attracting the empire.

sight.

Julian had no objections to this allocation. Others also knew the dangers and heavy burdens of this trip and did not say anything.

Perhaps the only one who complained was Riel, who had just recovered from a serious illness, but her dissatisfaction was only focused on the fact that Akali and her daughter could come but she could not.

But with Swain's order first, Julian's personal persuasion, and Akali's mother and daughter having enough ninja experience and her own poor physical condition, the girl complained endlessly.

In the end, I can only accept my fate.

But that’s okay, Julian thought to himself:

Originally, this operation was mainly about concealment, rather than a head-on battle, but Riel - after what happened on the execution day, Julian's attitude towards her also became interested.

There was a little more concern in her daily speech that was not there in the past. It was because of this subtle emotional change that Rui Er, a girl who didn't care about anyone except Julian and Gabriel, was able to stay peacefully in secret.

Among the troops of the society, before Julian and his party set off, she patted her chest and promised to protect everyone's safety, which made Julian fall in love with her even more——but,

These are all prefaces.

In the basement, seeing Julian's arrival, Yonat, who was leaning against the tunnel door, was the first to greet him: "You are here. Did you find out any useful information along the way?"

"No." Recalling the experience of secret inspections after entering the city, Julian shook his head: "The empire's blockade has not yet been lifted. There are many places where heavy troops are deployed, and there are mages in the dark. I dare not trade.

Sneak in rashly."

"Well," nodded, Yonat glanced at Swain, who was lowering his head at the table, and said helplessly: "I didn't find any useful information along the way, and now the empire's troops have firmly controlled it.

In the streets and alleys, the snakeheads have become as peaceful as the little lambs in the sheepfold, each one obediently curling up in their own territory and not daring to move."

"I heard that Ducao, who is in charge of intelligence work, has issued a death order to these people. Anyone who dares to cause trouble at this juncture will be killed first before questioning."

"How cruel!" A person on the side couldn't help but hammered his thigh and said: "This time the empire is really cruel. On the one hand, there are inspections and patrols all over the street, and on the other hand, the news that the army is about to go out is spreading. I'm going to

I took a look at Donggang and found that the supplies that should be prepared are almost ready now, and the few that are small are said to be collected from the private sector soon."

"Folks?" Hearing this word, Julian couldn't help but ask.

"It's the one you think of." Glancing at Julian, the man said: "Although Darkwill has become dim, he is not a fool. He can detect the unstable atmosphere in the capital at the moment. A bloody night

, an execution day, many nobles and

The rich people had some complaints about him, and collecting supplies from those people at this time would only intensify the atmosphere of dissatisfaction. So while still holding the butcher knife high, he calmly took a step back, but it was painful.

They are ordinary people in the city."
