It was late at night, and the densely packed buildings made of yellow-green bronze and steel completely blocked out the silvery-white moonlight from outside.
In this city shrouded in thick haze, the dim alchemical street lights can barely dispel the slightest bit of darkness, and most of the light comes from the shops and houses along the narrow alleys.
The further away from the Central City Square, the more dilapidated the roads become, with no one to maintain them and even overgrown with weeds, rocks and garbage.
In the end, even the flames of the alchemical street lamps no longer extended into the distance, so that everything at the middle boundary was completely swallowed up by darkness, and it was almost impossible to see one's hand in front of one's face.
In an abandoned factory, rusty and decaying steel and bronze grids are stacked together in a mess. Most of the outer walls made of cheap stone blocks have collapsed. The facilities inside that could still be sold for a little money have long been demolished, leaving only an empty iron can.
The evening wind that whistled in from the canyon from time to time swept through the gaps in the metal, making some dilapidated structures creak. The eerie sound was like the crying of a sad woman or a baby, and it was eerie and gloomy, giving people the atmosphere of being in a horror movie.
This is the Welsh Distillery.
Due to the poor performance caused by being exploited by Piltover, a few years ago, the owner of the brewery, Wells, accepted the call in a protest and chose to join the people of the Lower City in rebelling against the Upper City.
But he is an unlucky man.
During the fierce conflict, Wells was shot in the head by a law enforcement officer, and his soul returned to the realm of the dead.
The Welsh Distillery eventually declined even more rapidly after his death and was abandoned, becoming a relatively comfortable haven for scavengers and the homeless.
But tonight, the winery seemed unusually quiet.
In the corner of the winery, a slender figure blended with the shadows. A faint green light dispelled the darkness, revealing part of the figure's body.
The mysterious man wore a metal breathing mask carved with floral patterns, which completely covered his entire head, and a dark green metal top and trousers.
Several streams of green alchemical chemicals flowed through the small bottle at his waist, then wrapped around his body, connecting to the metal neck guard at his neck and the potion tube at his left shoulder.
Compared to common clothing, this outfit is more like a set of armor often worn for defense by thugs equipped with alchemical technology amplification devices.
In addition, the mysterious man's left arm was covered with a silver-white limb amplification device, and his five sharp claws were so sharp that they seemed able to easily pierce an adult's skull.
What is out of tune with the base city is that this half of the amplification device is more like Hextech than alchemy technology.
Overall, it looks like a combination of the upper city and the lower city.
The mysterious man was waiting quietly in a blind spot. He could easily see outside from here, but the scene here was completely invisible from the outside.
The mysterious man used the metal claw of his left hand to play with the stem of a bright purple hypnotic flower. With his other hand, he pulled out a pocket watch from his bosom, brought it close to the thin tube emitting green light on his body, and checked the time with the help of the light.
"10:23, it's almost time to retreat..."
The mysterious man quickly put away the pocket watch, then crushed the purple hypnotic flower in his hand and threw it on the ground casually.
"Pollen can also help the Gilamans sleep for a few hours. With the intelligence of that Gilaman girl, it won't take long to find it..."
Just as the mysterious man was thinking, a discordant sound was faintly heard from the distance in the winery, and it disappeared in an instant.
But this could not deceive the mysterious man's professionally trained keen hearing.
"What's that sound?"
The mysterious man suddenly became alert and quickly hid his body completely behind the wall, then slightly stuck out half of his head to look in the direction of the sound.
At the same time, the mysterious man pricked up his ears and listened carefully to any movement that might come at any time.
bite……
There was another subtle sound, like the sound of sharp metal scratching on stone.
A familiar voice...
The mysterious man's mind was active, and deep in his consciousness he had already identified who its owner was. A fear from the bottom of his heart instantly swept through his whole body.
"Damn it, why is she here..." The mysterious man cursed inwardly and panicked in an instant.
Less than three seconds later, a clearer sound of air jets and metal friction echoed in the empty interior.
Then, there was the same sound again, the sound of the Hextech hook.
“…”
The mysterious man gently placed his right hand on his chest where his heart was, then he exhaled heavily and walked out slowly.
There was no point in continuing to hide behind cover.
Because if you meet her, no matter where you hide or run away, it will be in vain.
"I really don't want to see her..." the mysterious person murmured.
As the sound of the last hook faded away, the next sound that could be heard was the sound of sharp metal scraping against the floor in the room, slowly approaching.
The room was illuminated by blue light.
Not long after, a mature female voice with a mechanical texture entered the mysterious man's ears: "Kayinna Weiruize."
Kayinna raised her face and reached out to press the button on her chin.
The mechanical device spewed out a little white steam, and countless closely connected gears turned rapidly.
After two or three seconds, the mask slowly opened, revealing a pretty young face with brown skin, a metal amplifier device embedded in the left chin, and long hair that fell down rapidly.
