I thought that the death of several law enforcement officers before was already serious enough! Unexpectedly, a larger number of deaths appeared!
As a result, there will be no possibility of reconciliation between Piltover and Zaun!
"When did this happen?!"
Fandel couldn't help but ask loudly, he no longer cared whether Milo and Craig would overhear.
He asked anxiously: "Why didn't anyone tell me?!"
"What do you think?"
Ke Wen pointed to the carnival square outside: "Everyone is carnivaling, who will pay attention to the border market above? Even if someone wants to pay attention, I'm afraid they can't get through the crowd outside."
Fandel looked outside along the window.
Then he sighed heavily.
He sat on the bed holding his head. After a moment of daze, he raised his head and said to Ke Wen: "Is there any other news?! For example, are there any troops being mobilized in the upper city?! What is the situation of the various nobles?!"
"Didn't see it."
Ke Wen shook his head: "It's quite safe in Pi City. Only the area near the bridge is surrounded by law enforcement officers. As for the nobles, they probably need to hold a meeting or something before they can decide whether to send out private armed forces."
"No more delay!"
Fandel stood up and walked towards the door: "We must organize defense as soon as possible! Negotiations with those alchemy barons must also be as soon as possible!"
Without even having time to say hello to Coven, Fandel rushed down the stairs anxiously.
Ke Wen opened his mouth, but he didn't even have time to remind Fandel to be careful with Silko recently.
But forget it, the plot has changed.
Even in the original plot, Silko's original intention was not to kill Fander.
It's just that Wei's rescue operation made things unavoidable, and then Baobao's intervention brought things to the worst ending.
But now Wei and Baobao are no longer adopted by Fandel, and Fandel's mentality has changed, so Hilko has no reason to kill Fandel.
So Ke Wen felt that it didn't matter whether he reminded Fandel or not. If the plot inertia really appeared, the worst case scenario would be to let Wei and Bao Bao go away.
Thinking of this, Ke Wen simply got out of the window, and then returned to the repair shop with a lot of effort.
…
The night passed before I knew it.
After the Zaun people spent the whole night reveling, the crowd finally dispersed due to exhaustion.
Fandel didn't have time to rest, so he immediately sent people to the border market to keep an eye on them, and sent people to report the movements in the city at any time.
Then he took several men armed with firearms and went to the middle square, looking for the alchemy barons to negotiate.
In the upper city, many people were still awake that night.
Just after early morning, all the nobles gathered in the parliament hall to put pressure on the MPs to come up with a solution that would satisfy everyone.
This time Heimerdinger was very sober.
He no longer took the initiative to express his opinions, but sat in his chair and silently observed everyone.
Under his observation, he found that the attitudes of the MPs were not unified.
Among the seven-person parliament, apart from Heimerdinger, the two members of the Gila Mann and Myrdalda families belong to the peace faction, or in other words, they seem to pursue stability more.
As for the little yellow-haired young man from the Horskar family, and the bald and mentally retarded old man from the Salo family, they are pure waste.
The two of them were afraid of war, but they had no independent opinions and did not dare to express their own ideas. They could only follow the trend.
The last two congressmen are completely hard-liners!
A congressman who had been mechanically transformed made his judgment from a legal perspective, so he insisted on sending troops to Zaun!
The same is true for another black bald female MP from the Voslaton family.
When it came time to vote by show of hands, Congressman Mechanical and Congressman Voslaton directly raised their hands and agreed to send troops to launch a suppressive war.
Under the pressure of the nobles present at the meeting, Councilors Hoskal and Salo, who had no opinion, could only raise their hands in confusion, and they followed suit and voted in favor.
Although Heimerdinger, Myrdalda, and Giramann did not raise their hands, the vote was four to three, and their opinions were no longer important.
The resolution of the Parliament is thus established!
Soon, all the law enforcement officers in the city, except for some necessary patrol personnel, were armed and rushed to the bridge!
Mechanical anti-explosion shields were set up on the bridges, and the artillery placed on the coastal wall was moved over, aiming their muzzles at Zaun's border market.
The bridge and various commanding heights were covered with law enforcement officers. All law enforcement officers raised powerful rifles, ready to shoot any Zaun who dared to approach the bridge at any time!
The order of the parliament is a total lockdown!
The Parliament did not allow law enforcement officers to break into the border market, but instead defended passively.
If the Zaun people dare to attack the bridge, Piltover will let the Zaun people know what the baptism of artillery fire is!
After the baptism of artillery fire, the law enforcement officers will advance towards Zaun and kill all Zaun people who dare to come forward!
…
The news of Pi City's arrangement was quickly spread to Zaun by spies.
In a hall in the middle-level square, spies kept rushing in to announce the news.
As the information continued to increase, an alchemist baron finally couldn't bear it any longer!
Bang——
The tabletop was slapped hard!
The alchemist baron with skull tattoos on his face suddenly roared: "Fander!! Look at the good things you people in the dark alley have done!!"
He raised his hand and made a circle to all the alchemy barons present.
Then he continued to roar: "Now Pi City has completely blocked the lower city! None of us can get out! All the goods! They have been blocked over there!! Who will bear these losses?!"
"That's right!"
Another well-dressed alchemist baron echoed in a deep voice: "The upper city not only blocked our side! It also blocked the flow of materials to the lower city! Fandel!"
He stood up and leaned forward, supported the table with both hands, stared at Fander and asked: "There is no input channel for supplies! Do you want all the Zaans to starve to death?!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The Tattooed Alchemist Baron shouted: "You must give everyone an explanation!"
Click——
The atmosphere was so tense that the people in the dark alley who came with Fandel raised their guns and loaded their bullets!
Fandel immediately raised his right hand to stop his men's impulse.
Then he looked around at all the alchemy barons and said in a deep voice: "What explanation do you want? Or, up to now, do you still have any unrealistic hopes?!"
Fandel stood up slowly and said slowly: "The war situation has been completely formed! Do you think that you can just rely on sending people out this time to settle things?!"
Bang!
Leng Buding slapped the table, startling everyone.
Fandel also leaned forward and growled with stern eyes: "We have the only way to go: war! And we must unite to face it!"
"no!"
Another alchemist baron made a voice, and he shouted in a low voice: "Fander! You can't involve us! You must know! We are the backbone of the entire Zaun!"
"Something can happen to you! Something can happen to you in the dark alley! But we can never!"
"Without us, Zaun will lose all job opportunities! Without us! All Zaun people will lose their source of income!"
"Zu An has suffered enough!"
"Fander!" the alchemist baron raised his voice: "Do you want all Zaun people to become those gangsters in the dark alleys?! Gangsters who can only get by through petty theft?!"
Hearing this, Fandel immediately retorted loudly: "What if we lose?! What if we lose the war?! Have you ever thought about it?!"
He pointed at everyone in a circle: "If you lose the war! You will suffer greater oppression and exploitation from the upper city! Then! How are you alchemy barons different from the gangsters in the dark alleys?! You are still delusional!
Can we maintain the current benefits?!"
coax--
The scene suddenly became noisy.
All the alchemy barons are discussing with each other.
But things didn't turn out the way Vandel had hoped.
After discussion, the Alchemy Barons agreed on their ideas. They were stubborn and would never agree to provide manpower and other help to Fander.
Fandel continued to fight, but with little success.
Even if he persuaded a few alchemy barons, those few people would not dare to disobey the collective will of the alchemy barons.
In the end, Fandel only obtained a guarantee. The Alchemy Barons promised not to hold back during the war and that they would never reach out to the dark alley.
But in exchange, Fandel must resolve the blockade of the upper city as soon as possible, and must not bring the war to the middle square!
Fandel was very disappointed! But he was not extremely disappointed.
Because he had already anticipated this outcome before coming to negotiate.
His original intention was to prevent these alchemist barons from holding back, but he failed to gain more support, which was expected.
So Fandel finally dropped some harsh words.
He said that if anyone dares to violate the agreement, he will come back to deal with him first even if the war fails!
After saying that, he ignored the ugly faces of the alchemist barons, stood up and left the factory with his men.
Just as Fandel led the people back to the dark alley, a thin young man with a cockscomb head walked into Benso's shop.
"Boss Bensuo!"
He said to Benso who was standing inside the counter: "There are some problems in the negotiations with Boss Fandel!"
"There's a problem?" Ben Suo was confused: "Who are you? Why don't I have any impression?"
"I joined Boss Fandel's staff today."
The young man said with a proud look: "I come from the middle square, and I also want to fight for Zaun in the upper city! Boss Fandel accepted my surrender there!"
Bensuo nodded and asked without thinking too much: "Tell me, what went wrong? Did the negotiation with the Alchemist Baron fail?"
"I am not sure."
The young man shook his head: "It seems to be a business matter. I didn't understand it. Anyway, Boss Fandel asked me to come back and call you to tell you what it was..."
After thinking hard for a moment, the young man continued: "That's right! Representative! I think I asked you, Boss Bensuo, to negotiate something as the representative of the black alley store."
Hearing this, Bensuo frowned slightly.
He walked out from the counter and told the dark-skinned and white-haired boy who was repairing something in the corner of the front hall: "Ike, look after the store for me."
"ah?"
The teenage boy turned around and asked reluctantly: "How long will it take? I plan to go to the Blue Bird Gang after I finish the work at hand."
Ben Suo did not give any confirmation, but simply ordered quietly: "Keep an eye on your home. If anything is lost, I will go to the Jade Bird Gang to claim compensation."
After speaking, Bensuo tilted his chin to indicate the way for the young man who came to report the news.
The store door closed, and the little boy named Ike stamped his foot depressedly, and complained gibberingly.
the other side.
Fandel took the people back to the bar and continued to arrange preparations for the war.
It was approaching noon, and he realized that Bensuo had never shown up.
I asked the people around me and found out that no one had seen Bensuo today.
Because there were too many things, he was not allowed to think too much for the time being.
It wasn't until some important work was arranged in the afternoon that Fandel walked out of the bar and planned to visit Benso's shop.
As he was about to reach his destination, a call made him stop.
It's still the young man with the cockscomb hair.
He ran up to Fandel and said with an adoring look: "Boss Fandel! My name is Dirk! I want to join you!!"
"Dirk..."
Fandel looked at the other person and asked with a smile: "Why do you want to join us? We will face war next! It is very dangerous!"
"I'm not afraid!"
Dirk puffed up his chest: "Boss Bensuo said it! As long as you have a heart that dares to die for Zaun! Then everyone is qualified to join this battle!"
"What Bensuo said?" Fandel looked helplessly at the shop dozens of meters away, then sighed and muttered: "This bastard is really messing around."
"Boss Bensuo also has good intentions. If we want to fight against Shangcheng, we should have a larger team!"
Dirk pointed upward: "So Boss Bensuo thinks that the people in the black alley alone are not enough. He is gathering more people in the middle square."
"Mid-level plaza?"
Fandel was stunned and looked up.
All you can see is thick fog.
So he withdrew his gaze and shook his head and said: "This guy Bensuo is really wasting his time. The middle square is full of people from the Baron. How many people can he recruit..."
After that, he said to Dirk: "Let's go, you know where he is now, right? Take me there, boy."
"no problem!"
Dirk looked honored, and he immediately turned around to lead the way.
Fandel followed.
When passing by Benso's store, he looked inside through the window and found that only Ike Xiaoduding was left in the store to look after the house.
This made him shake his head speechlessly again.
He smiled at Ike who looked over through the window, and then Fandel quickened his pace.
But Ike Xiaoduding in the store was stunned.
He wondered why Fandel didn't come in, so he ran out of the front desk and opened the store door.
Ike stood at the door and looked in the direction where Fander was leaving, and suddenly he was stunned again.
Because he saw the young man with the cockscomb head.
This made him even more strange. Bensuo was following that person before, but now it was Fandel.
Ike's curiosity became more and more intense.
In the end, he couldn't hold back his curiosity and immediately closed the store door and followed secretly...
