Swain has never met LeBlanc, not even her trickster clone.

By exposing his parents' betrayal of the Empire, Swain entered the realm of nobility and became a military general.

The sharp brain that he had cultivated since childhood played a role on the battlefield. Swain pacified the western border and his reputation gradually grew.

But he didn't know at the time that this was just a secret arrangement by the Black Rose. He was just a chess piece that could be discarded at any time, used by the Pale Lady to threaten the disobedient Darkwill.

Ever since Darkwill ordered the eastward expedition and set foot on Ionia, Swain led his army to set a trap for the Navori resistance, but the other warbands around him were withdrawn, leaving him isolated and helpless.

It wasn't until his kneecap was shattered, his left arm was severed by the Blade Dancer's flying knife, and he lay in despair in the middle of the battlefield, staring into the eyes of a raven with scarlet eyes, that he truly had an epiphany.

The familiar dark force, the secret-eating demon Ramo, has been watching him from the beginning, wanting to devour him, but Ramo sees through his true name and conquers him instead.

Through the demon, Swain learned the secrets of the Black Rose and the Pale Lady, and has always regarded this organization as his biggest concern.

Similarly, Swain, who was able to survive and escape despite LeBlanc's precise calculations, and who overthrew the old emperor overnight and established a new regime a few years later, was also regarded by him as an enemy he had not encountered in a thousand years.

"Swain..." LeBlanc gritted her teeth, staring at Swain with a cold hatred in her eyes.

She was captured in her own secret Black Rose base.

Although Leblanc had always felt as if something was staring at her in the past few days, she could not find any suspicious traces through magical perception.

Until today, dozens of drones condensed from the illusory transparency and fired hypnotic energy bombs at her, catching her off guard and making her lose her combat capability. She was then put on anti-magic equipment by the mechanical engineers who followed closely.

Darius and Draven were the last to break in with the warriors of the Trifari Legion and escort her into the magic-forbidden stone carriage cage.

After a brief thought, Leblanc figured everything out.

She glanced at Li Lin again, her gaze refocusing on Swain.

All these outward expressions eventually turned into a disdainful sneer. "I didn't expect that as the Grand Commander of Noxus, you would actually rely on external forces to rectify Noxus?"

"Don't try to sow discord with me. Your methods are outdated, Pale Lady." Swain withdrew his hand, a mocking smile on his face. "Now, how does it feel to be a prisoner?"

"You think you've won just like that?" Leblanc gave him a teasing smile. "Isn't it too early to be happy?"

"If you still think that your trick clone can turn the tide, I advise you to give up this idea." Li Lin on the side interjected.

LeBlanc turned her cold gaze towards the young man standing beside Swain. "Li Lin, are you willing to help someone who is about to be devoured by the devil? Only the Black Rose can handle the future world crisis!"

"Forget it, don't try to get close to me." Li Lin waved his hand silently. "The so-called world crisis you mentioned is only Mordekaiser and his army of the dead. What we will face in the future is more than ten thousand times more terrifying than the Death Legion."

Leblanc was stunned for a moment, and for a short while she couldn't figure out what Li Lin was referring to.

"You, the Black Rose, only fight among humans, wasting our manpower. In order to find the strength to fight Mordekaiser, you are willing to push the entire Runeterra into the quagmire of war.

"But have you ever thought about the threat of the void?"

"Void..." Leblanc's expression changed slightly when she heard this word.

It was understandable that Swain didn't know much about the Void. As an "old witch" who had lived for more than a thousand years and the behind-the-scenes controller of Noxus, the name of the Void was well-known to her.

The battle between Shuriman's god-warriors and monsters rising from the depths of the earth in Icathia wasn't just a myth, or a story written by an unknown author in Piltover; it was a real event.

Not only that, Leblanc also knew that between 8000 and 9000 BC in the Noxian era, the three ice sisters of Freljord almost released the watchers from the other side of the void and destroyed the entire world.

But there has been no news from the Void for thousands of years, and it is not an imminent crisis.

If Li Lin hadn't mentioned it today, Leblanc might have forgotten about it...

"What makes you say the Void's threat is greater than Mordekaiser's? Don't forget, the Ascended once completely sealed the Void!"

Li Lin sneered, and casually found a drone with optical camouflage turned on, hidden in the air, and projected the scene of his battle with the Void in front of Leblanc.

In just a few minutes of editing, an entire thrilling battle scene is vividly presented.

Leblanc was speechless and terrified.

This man in front of her, whom she had never paid much attention to before, had actually grown to the point where he was on par with a god...

What kind of evil creature is this?

"You brought us too much instability, LeBlanc, so before I even founded the League of Legends, I was thinking about how to get rid of you."

Li Lin's expression was calm, his tone neither sad nor happy, "I need a strong and stable Noxus, a peaceful world, not friction between nations, frequent wars and unrest, which will only wear down our vitality in fighting the final disaster.

"So, as the source of this disaster, can you please die, Pale Lady?"
