“Good man, what kind of good man in the world would kill so many of his own kind?” Jinx tapped her head in pain. “Think about your family, how powerful are they? Why did they still want to execute that guy?”

“That’s because they don’t understand the truth.” Lux grabbed Jinx’s arm, “And I chose to do the right thing. Is there anything wrong with killing a man who wants to protect innocent people? Is your right to let him die?”

Lux has never been so determined that “that’s not right”

“But that is necessary to maintain order.” Jinx let go of Lux’s hand in disappointment, “This is the last time I advise you, I won’t cause trouble to Littlefinger for you, maybe one day the scene you expect will come, but not now, right or wrong is sometimes not that important.

You forget a lot of things every day, so why don’t you go home, take a hot bath, and forget about what happened here?”

“Because I am Laxana Crownguard.” The blonde girl left the alley and smiled brightly at the two people behind her. “I feel the same as the victims. I can’t forget it.”

“I think she’s right,” Ezreal said after the atmosphere had eased a little. “We have to make the right choice, don’t we?”

Jinx rolled her eyes and didn’t look at him again. She carried her big bag and climbed onto the roof in the distance.

“Hey, don’t go. Can you lend me some money?”

“Get lost, Little Finger shouldn’t be funding any crappy archaeological projects. Wait until you come up with something before you consider the money.”

The blond boy sighed and scratched his head helplessly. He looked at Lux who was leaving in the distance and was squeezing in the crowd. He chased after her helplessly and helped her separate the crowd in front of him. “I hope this good girl can lend me some.”

What a bunch of idiots, Jinx complained irritably, watching the two men walk through the crowd and stand in front of the execution platform as if talking to the inquisitor.

Just as the girl was anxiously trying to take some cookies out of the package, a big bubble suddenly appeared on the roof and the orange girl suddenly jumped out.

“Bubbles?” Jinx looked at the little girl floating in the air in confusion.

“Don’t call me that, shorty.” Zoe stuck out her tongue in dissatisfaction, raised her head and looked around for a while. “Where on earth is he hiding?”

“What?” Before Jinx could finish her words, Zoe took a few candies from her bag, then flipped over and disappeared into the air as if she was diving, and then appeared near the execution platform. From a distance, she seemed to be yelling something at the people standing there.

“Oh, this is not good”

………………

“Stop, stop now.” Lux squeezed out of the crowd, jumped onto the platform in a few steps, and stopped the executioner’s actions.

“My glimmer of light,” Silas murmured to himself in a low voice, as if he saw hope.

“Listen to me, everything you did was wrong. The stories you heard about Silas of Border Town were incomplete rumors. He is a mage, but he is also a human… He was forced into this state by us. It was Demacia that pushed them to the opposite side of us. I know this very well because I, Laxana Crownguard, is his friend.”

The scene was silent for a moment, and then, like sparks thrown into a pond, the audience shouted angrily.

“She’s a demonophile.”

“Shameless woman”

No matter how the people below shouted, the judge on the execution platform obviously recognized the surname Mianwei. He winked at the guards on the side and tried to push and pull her off the stage. “Okay, Miss Mianwei, thank you for your kindness, but the law is not merciful.”

“Why don’t you let her finish her words?” Ezreal stood aside, blocking the way and winked at Lux, signaling the girl to seize the opportunity.

The blonde girl was very smart. She turned around and got out of the guard’s hands, then ran towards Silas in a few steps.

Before she could reach the man, a girl’s voice came from behind the execution platform, “Okay, so this is why you’re hiding from me.”

Chapter 191 Broken Chains, Angry Prisoners

Zoe’s appearance startled everyone. No one knew where she came from. Especially now when everyone was excited, the guards were extremely sensitive and reacted almost subconsciously. These silver-armored knights became alert to the orange-haired girl.

This gave Lux a great opportunity. No one tried to stop her. She immediately ran to the beheading platform and helped him tidy up his hair with sadness. “I’m sorry, I couldn’t help you.”

“It is I who should say sorry, my glimmer…” Silas suppressed his ecstasy, feeling the endless magical energy coming from the girl. His hands locked by the forbidden magic stone gradually lit up with star-like light.

boom–

The huge execution platform collapsed into pieces. Both the judge and the executioner were instantly beaten into pieces by the flying debris. The spectators in the front row turned around and fled like crazy, but it was of no avail. Silas raised his hands with great anger, and a beam of light erupted like a ruthless and endless beam, igniting everything in front of him.

“Farewell, my cage”

“No.” Lux was blown far away by the explosion. Fortunately, Ezreal dodged in time to avoid falling on the sharp gravel. Thanks to Ezreal’s save, the eldest daughter of the Crownguard family had no other injuries except being covered in dust, at least it seemed so. Her specific mental state remains to be discussed.

“Why? Silas? Why did you hurt them?”

“Because I want to make them feel our pain. You know in your heart that these people will not accept us. There is only one way to deal with them… It is you who showed me this way.”

“No, don’t do this.” Lux knelt helplessly on the ground, with fallen corpses all around her. Her moist eyeballs rolled on the ground twice along with the blood on the dead soldiers’ faces, and then stuck to the sword… That was the part of being a bystander.

“Hey man, I don’t know how much resentment you have, but I want you to stop right now.” Ezreal looked at the man in front of him with a serious face and alertness. The holy relic from Shurima in his arm was ready to stop Sylas’s atrocities at any time.

“Ha, a challenger, where do you want to stand?” Silas shook the chain in his hand and sneered at the little guy nonchalantly.

“Of course you’ll be on my side,” Zoe floated in the air, approached Lux and laughed, “Oh, I’m Lux, I’m tall and smart, I won’t do anything bad, everyone will help me… Look at what you’ve done.”

The girl on the ground just cried. Zoe curled her lips in boredom, waved her hand, and knocked Ezreal into her bubble. “Wait for me, I’ll be there soon.”

“Well, let me think about what I want to do.” Zoe stared at Silas and rolled her eyes. “I got it!”

The girl in the air gently tapped the chain on Silas’s hand, and the power from heaven was injected into the body of this crazy man, like a fire from the inside out. Silas roared in pain, and Zoe nodded. “Very good, the puppy got the bone, and we have to work harder next time.”

As she spoke, Zoe jumped back and disappeared into the air. She was going to chase Ezreal again. She must not let him leave again.

The man lying on the ground emitted bright starlight, which then gradually disappeared. Finally, he suddenly stood up from the ground. Following his movement, a huge beam of light quickly cut outward. In an instant, all the civilians in the square fell down like ears of wheat. Only a few demon hunters who were on guard in the distance used their special skills to delay their death a little.

“Run, bug!” Silas twisted the chains on his arms and slowly moved closer.

…………

“I said there was something wrong with that man. Look, something happened, right?” Jinx complained as she put the weapons in the big bag on one by one. When she was fully armed and just looked up, she saw a dazzling light blasting over and smashing the wall under her feet. Then several weak people walked out cautiously with chains, squinting their eyes to feel the dazzling light.

“What an rude little dog!” Jinx pressed the power of the Boom Gun, and the three barrels spun rapidly. “Children who don’t obey will be spanked.”

With a light tap of her heels, Jinx jumped down from the roof. Her boots emitted a faint blue recoil light in the air. The slowly descending girl not only received no damage, but also poured bullets onto the head of the bad guy who was about to attack her below.

The people holding magic in their hands were shattered by the projectiles before they could defend themselves. When they just held up the shield facing the girl, they heard the crisp sound of the grenade safety being popped off from behind. Jinx, who had thrown the grenade in advance, nodded easily as if she had done something normal. “This kind of scene should be worthy of Mr. Bite.”

“Smooth landing.” The girl nodded with satisfaction. As the external skeleton device was powered on, Jinx grabbed the fishbone rocket on her shoulder and slid towards the center of the bustling square at a very fast speed.

Jinx deftly avoided the debris blocking her way and saw Silas wielding chains. Opposite him, several demon hunters were struggling to withstand the endless attacks. Amid the dazzling chains, they also had to be careful of several insidious curses that came out of nowhere.

Even the most battle-hardened witchers were no different from new recruits under such a violent attack. From time to time, witchers would be cut in two by the chains, wailing in the air, and then fall heavily to the ground like a broken sack, losing their lives.

“Is this the carnival celebration?” Jinx aimed the fishbone rocket in her hand at Silas. “How can I be left out?”

The sudden rocket forced Silas to give up attacking and choose defense. It was true that he could draw magic and face the sword-wielding soldiers calmly, but if he was hit by a rocket and didn’t know how to dodge, then he simply didn’t know how to write the word death.

Jinx, who used purely physical attacks, immediately became Silas’ main target. The chains smashed down madly, but Jinx relied on the anti-gravity and compressed gas of her Hextech boots to move quickly, and she was able to dodge the man’s fierce attack with a nimble side turn.

Even if she fails to dodge in time, the shield generator she wears on her body can block the attack. As long as she is careful not to be bombarded by the huge light beam, Jinx will not be in any danger for the time being. Instead, she is like a fish in water because of the cover of the explosions around her.

“Damn it, is all you can do is run? Cowardly rat, I’m going to twist your head off.” Silas was really having a headache. This girl was elusive. She was launching a rocket from a distance just a second ago. By the time he had just blown that thing up in the air, the girl had moved to another place and was standing behind the witcher, splashing bullets on his face.

He had to keep an eye on the shield with one hand and only made a few counterattacks.

“Ha, come and catch me, idiot”

Chapter 192 Jinx vs. Sylas

With the help of the exoskeleton and suspension device, the girl, who was already agile, became even more elusive. After seeing that Jinx’s attack would cause huge damage to Silas, the surviving demon hunters exchanged opinions tacitly and began to participate in the defense and rioting work.

These demon hunters work in perfect harmony with each other. They are all elites with many battles under their belts. Their help to Jinx is always just right and no one makes any mistakes. After all, the demon hunters who are not very skilled have already fallen to the ground.

“What are you looking at?” While Silas was distracted fending off the witcher’s arrows, Jinx shuttled freely in the rubble while firing her machine gun wildly at Silas, forcing him to raise his arms to support the semicircular shield. The bullets bounced on the shield, making a tinkling sound.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the demon hunter who was on guard behind him slowly advanced towards him, throwing flying knives mixed with forbidden magic stones at Silas along the way. The man in front of him had no armor. If he could hurt him with this thing, he would be able to demonstrate his magical ability to curb him.

The rotating barrel made a fiery noise and suddenly stopped. Jinx lowered her head and pulled the trigger a few times, but the hot bullet did not fly out of the barrel.

“Oh, that’s too bad.” Jinx looked up and gave a fake smile to the stunned Silas and other demon hunters. “Can you wait a moment so I can change the drum before continuing?”

“Well, I’m not in a hurry, you can take your time,” Silas said unkindly, and with a scorching fire whip, he pulled back a demon hunter who was about to step forward. Without waiting for others to react, he turned around and raised his arms high towards Jinx, his muscles tensed like a bow, and a huge halo of magic hit Jinx fiercely.

“A stingy man won’t be liked by anyone,” Jinx muttered. She turned flexibly and jumped behind a broken building not far away. Taking advantage of the violent vibration behind her, Jinx quickly replaced the ammunition for her Boom Boom gun. “What do you think happened? That big fool doesn’t seem to like our enthusiasm, right? He always rejects you. You have to behave better, Boom Boom.”

She carefully poked her head out and peeked outside. Now she could see nothing but dust. However, a small bottle shining on the ground caught Jinx’s attention. “Maybe we should find the right way to communicate. For example, we should pretend to be a little mean to Little Finger, and give some extra gifts to the big fool. Am I right? My Mr. Bite? It’s up to you from now on.”

“Run, damn flea!” Silas swung his shackles at the ruined building in front of him. “Run like a clown, and let me enjoy watching you.”

The shackles wrapped with magic light fell into the ruins one after another. The dust stirred up completely blocked everyone’s sight. It seemed that Silas was really suppressed. His current actions were more like venting anger than attacking. When there was no sound around, Silas stopped his actions and turned to look at the demon hunters behind him and Lux who was kneeling and crying sadly.

“Now, is there anyone who can stop me?”

“To be honest, I was planning to launch a sneak attack, but since you said so, I have to refute you, right?”

In the smoke and dust, a shadow flew high with the help of the azure nozzle behind it, drew an arc over Silas’ head, and fell to the other side. Jinx slightly adjusted the vector nozzle behind her, raised the fishbone rocket launcher she was carrying from top to bottom towards Silas, and found the right time to launch a fierce attack.

“Is he dead?” The demon hunter standing on the side, covering the wound on his waist, carefully identified whether the sinner hidden in the explosion had fallen.

“How is that possible?” Jinx gave him a strange look. “He can cast a magic shield. If it’s so easy to kill him, why would we spend so much energy attacking him?”

“So what do we do now? Can we help you?”

“Not for now,” Jinx said, picking up the reloaded Bump Gun. “We have to wait until the right time.”

“Are you waiting for your God to save you?” The blast split Silas in the middle. Silas didn’t seem to be hurt, but his heavy breathing was audible to everyone present.

“Your attack is as weak as your size, you damn flea.” Silas was already taunting with exhaustion. “What else can you do except tickle me?”

“It’s hard to say. We have to see how Dr. Pepper performs.”

As soon as Jinx finished speaking, an explosion suddenly occurred behind Silas, and a large amount of crystal powder flew into the air, reflecting a dazzling crystal light.

Seeing the explosion, Jinx pulled the trigger of her machine gun without hesitation, and a large number of bullets poured out towards the center. She didn’t stop until the barrel was slightly hot. While the smoke was still there, Jinx calmly reloaded and complained to the dumbfounded demon hunter.

“He actually called me a flea, which is really rude… I mean, how can you use such a word to address a lady, right?… But speaking of which, Littlefinger likes to call me Kitty here, so am I Miss Kitty?”

The girl who didn’t wait for the flattery was a little unhappy. She hummed twice, and while being alert to your movements on Silas’s side, she slowly moved to Laxana and gently kicked the girl kneeling on the ground.

Jinx was a little impatient. “Come on, stop crying. The guy you’re holding has died. There’s no time for you to be sad. Get up and do something.”

“But, I never thought…he shouldn’t be like this” Lux cried softly

“Ah! It’s the old story of a rich girl who met a bad man. It’s nothing.” Jinx frowned. “When are you going to get up again? Why don’t you help the person who is still alive over there? At least stuff his intestines back first.”

The lifeless blonde girl finally moved, almost crawling to the injured man’s side, and despite the demon hunter’s distrustful look, she carefully treated his injuries.

The demon hunter leader, whose beard was a little gray, scolded for a while, which made the other demon hunters shift their vigilance away from the eldest daughter of the Crown Guard family. To them, the sinner Silas was the top priority.

The dust from the explosion dissipated in the Demacia monsoon. Now Silas could no longer keep his stubborn attitude. The bomb had blew his back into a bloody mess. The subsequent blind machine gun fire further aggravated the damage. Silas could only half-kneel on the ground, waving his arms in vain but unable to use any magic. He could only wait for his own demise.

“what did you do to me?”

Chapter 193 Jinx vs. Sylas (Part 2)

“what did you do to me?”

Listening to the angry roar of the man half-kneeling on the ground in front of her, Jinx thought carefully and tried to summarize it in words that everyone could understand.

“It’s hard to say… I just found a bottle of forbidden magic stone powder on the ground. You should know it, that kind of crystal bottle with a metal lid on it, which makes a rustling sound when you shake it slightly.”

Jinx gestured to the bottle in the air, hoping to make her description more appropriate. “By the way, that bottle is really pretty. For a moment I wanted to keep it… just for a moment.”

The girl tried hard to describe the pretty little thing, and smiled awkwardly at the people present. “Haha, you can’t blame me. You know, that thing is shiny and it attracts people to come here… After that, things are simple. I tie it to Mr. Bite, knock it here, tie it there, and Dr. Pepper is done.”

Jinx threw the Fire Chew Grenade down again, scaring the Demon Hunter standing behind her so much that she quickly distanced herself from him. This action caused the girl’s dissatisfaction, “Why are you doing this? I didn’t do anything. This thing is quite safe. You can use it to decorate the festive atmosphere.”

“Enough, woman, are you laughing at me? You damn sewer rat!” Silas whipped the ground angrily, and one end of the chain slammed heavily into the ground.

“I’m not, I’m explaining it to you seriously, listen carefully, idiot” Jinx complained dissatisfiedly “Where were we just talking about? …Oh Dr. Pepper”

“Anyway, with Dr. Pepper, things are very simple. I just jump up, send you a rocket, and throw Dr. Pepper down with me.”

Jinx drew an arc in the air with her slender fingers in front of her eyes, imitating the trajectory of her movements just now, adding sound effects for her own enjoyment as if she was performing a drama.

“Swoosh———Puff, da~da~”

Jinx smiled smugly and pointed at Silas who was kneeling on the ground with both hands. “And then you got blown up, idiot. I guess you can’t use magic now, right?”

Jinx picked up the huge machine gun and walked forward slowly, swinging her long braid. “At 11:36, the extremely evil prisoner Silas was arrested by Officer Jinx… It’s up to you whether you want to talk or not, anyway, you will definitely be thrown into prison and rot.”

“That’s not necessarily true.” Silas struggled to get up from the ground. As he moved, blood oozed out from the tiny wounds on his body, staining the ground of the execution platform red.

“You hunt down mages everywhere. You label these poor people as criminals just because they sound a little different. You treat us like animals, and we will tear you apart like wild animals.”

“So you’ve gone from being a prisoner to a philosopher? Maybe beheading doesn’t really suit you. Do you need me to provide you with poisoned wine?” Jinx’s nerves suddenly felt bad. The action-oriented girl immediately stopped and took up her weapon to be on guard. “I promise to give you a strong blow and make sure you die in pain.”

“The cage does not belong to me, the Forbidden Magic Stone cannot trap me, I am rage, I am grand revenge.” A strange light appeared on the wounds on Silas’ body, like the color of the sunset, and like the stars in the night sky. As the light flickered, a large amount of blood washed out the Forbidden Magic Stone powder attached to the wounds. The wounds on his body were also healing quickly.

“This doesn’t look good. Can magic heal people so quickly?” Jinx secretly raised her vigilance and quietly blocked Lux, who was still immersed in her own world, behind her. “I say, your magic potion may have expired.”

The demon hunters did not answer. They hid farther away than Jinx. If the city gates had not been blocked and could not be opened by just a few people, they would have chosen a strategic retreat long ago.

“The greedy and tyrannical Light Shield has occupied the throne for too long. From here and now, I will ascend the supreme throne, and Demacia will become a kingdom of mages.” Silas is no longer satisfied with the light emitting from his body. Now he looks more like a ball of light. Under the star-like light, he raised his wrist with difficulty and released the ever-expanding energy accumulated in his body towards the prison not far away.
