Battle of the Two Cities: Begins with the Mage Chapter 168

War College.

Katerina in armor was expressionless as she walked down the path in the academy.

You can see students passing by in a hurry everywhere, big and small.

When she was in the south, she had always heard the name of this college.

Not only that, but she knew that her younger sister had also entered the academy and studied in the history department.

The direction Katerina is heading at this time is exactly the direction of the History Department.

Each department has its own main venue, the arena of the Department of War, the administrative building of the Department of Administration...

The Department of History, centered on the Zhanzheng College Library, includes several surrounding buildings.

The college library is the largest library in the empire, and almost all the books collected by the empire have rubbings here.

Including the collections of various families, including Ryan's private collection, and even some of the secrets collected by Black Rose.

Walking into the magnificent library, Katerina didn't stop, and stepped onto the wooden steps without looking sideways.

She has already made inquiries, and the person she is looking for is in the Shurima Culture Seminar Room on the third floor.

Her task is to retrieve the items, but the pre-arrangement cannot be relaxed.

Squeak!

She directly opened the door of the research room, and first, a large number of bookshelves came into his sight.

Through the gap between the bookshelves, she saw the three of them were discussing something fiercely at a table.

Two men and one woman, two of whom she knew.

The sound of the door opening caught the attention of the three, Ezreal, who was sitting in the main seat, closed his mouth, and the girl sitting next to him also shrank back.

Only the anaconda with the snake tail was a little confused. Seeing the movements of the other two, it was obvious that the identity of the person who came was extraordinary.

But he didn't know it either, so he had to bite the bullet and beckoned:

"Hello, who are you looking for this general?"

When the girl next to her heard it, she couldn't help but retorted, with a hint of envy and jealousy in her voice: "That's not a general. She, Caterina du Kakao, Senator Trifali, commander of the southern front."

"Commander of the Southern Front!?" The anaconda opened his mouth wide, his face full of shock.

The southern front is the Empire's front in Shurima, isn't it?

The cold-faced female general in front of her looked very young, but she did not expect that she was already a high-level executive of the empire.

He didn't know what the councilor meant, but he knew that the southern commander could decide the life and death of his people.

"Mr. Kekao, I don't know why you are here..."

The anaconda asked carefully, for fear that the only remaining clansman would be gone if he made a mistake.

Katerina ignored the anaconda and kept her eyes on the girl after she entered the door.

The appearance of this girl surprised her a little.

The girl is her own sister, Cassiopeia, who was raised by her mother since childhood.

"Cassiopeia! Mother shouldn't have disciplined you then."

Katerina frowned slightly when she saw her sister's almost distorted expression.

"You don't have the right to say that! You have been called excellent by the family since you were a child, but I never thought I was worse than you!" Cassiopeia said stubbornly.

Katerina shook her head slightly and sighed inwardly.

She and her sister had a good relationship as children, but due to her talent, her father chose her, while Cassiopeia was taught by her mother.

Since then, the relationship between the two has gradually become estranged, and they meet each other with cynicism.

She didn't want to maintain such a sister relationship, but if venting would make her sister feel better, she would be willing to be spoken to.

The moment the choice was made, their fates changed drastically. She is destined to inherit the family in the future, and Cassiopeia will become the victim of the family marriage.

Both are desperate paths. She used to feel that she had a lot of burdens, while her sister was relatively relaxed.

But after following Ryan's days, her mentality has changed a lot.

Everyone's journey is not easy, and my sister also has her own pain.

She didn't want to see tragedy in her own family. Therefore, she defeated her mighty father and shouldered the fate of the family.

"Cassiopeia, I'm happy to accept your future challenge in the name of the second daughter of your Kekao family." Katerina said coldly.

"What do you mean?"

Cassiopeia was stunned for a moment, looking at her in surprise, as if to confirm something.

"Literally, I am the head of the Kekao family now, and your doomed gloomy future is over. You can choose the path you pursue, continue your mission, or go to Shurima to prove yourself. Even if I want to challenge my position, I will not refuse." Katerina said lightly.

"you..."

Cassiopeia looked at her with a complicated expression, as if she knew each other for the first time.

Her main purpose here is to break free from the shackles of the family on her, or go a step further... master the family.

To do this, she must prove her worth.

She knew that the Trifali Council attached great importance to the history of Shurima, which was what she was good at, and she had already planned the future.

But Katerina's appearance disrupted everything.

"Cassiopeia, I respect your choice."

Ezreal spoke up from the side, with an 'I understand' expression on his face.

Blood was dripping in his heart, and he finally found a right-hand man, who was actually the sister of the witch.

At that time in Piltover, he was most afraid of meeting two people, one was Seraphine and the other was Katerina.

One who can see through his thoughts, the other who doesn't have a cold for him at all, comes up with a knife.

As long as he dared to say something about Noxus or Ryan, he would have a knife on his neck in no time.

If Katarina or her sister really didn't want to follow him, he had no choice but to let it go.

Cassiopeia hesitated for a while, her face kept changing, but she still said:

"Katerina, I won't change my mind. I will help Professor Ezreal. I can learn a lot from her."

"Good idea, keep going."

Katarina was noncommittal and turned her gaze to Ezreal.

Seeing this, Ezreal hurriedly said:

"Miss Cassiopeia's knowledge of history is very knowledgeable, and she can help me and the Empire in many places."

Seeing that Katarina didn't look away, his mind turned sharply, and he suddenly showed a sudden color:

"Don't worry, Cassiopeia is just my assistant and won't go to those dangerous places."

"I believe she won't overestimate her strength." Katerina said flatly.

The Anaconda watched the entire conversation, and couldn't help but twist up, looking at Katarina with some fear.

This was his first close encounter with such a big man, and it really was close to the dignified aura in rumors.

But...he seems to be as gentle as most people when it comes to relatives...

"Miss Katarina, this time is not just about Miss Cassiopeia." Ezreal asked carefully.

He received news yesterday that the Akzam Mausoleum he was about to explore was led by Katarina in front of him.

At that time, he felt that the sky was falling, but after hearing that Katerina was going to succeed as a member of parliament, his mind became active again.

Brother Draven should be the weakest member of parliament, and he can't resist that kind of strength.

The **** of Mr. Parliament President was responsible for leading the team and protecting his safety in time. Does that mean that his future...

While he was thinking about the future, Katerina interrupted his thoughts:

"I'm going back to Shurima, how long do you need to prepare?" Katarina asked directly.

She only cares about when to get the items designated by Ryan, and within the scope of her ability, she will use her strength to protect Ezreal and his party.

However, she has self-knowledge, the specific information in there, she can't help much, and needs to be explained by professionals.

It was bound to be full of danger, but she was ready.

Seeing that he was talking about business, Ezreal also rubbed his temples with a headache, and smiled bitterly:

"Almost all the information about Icacia is known, and there are plans for possible crises. But now there is only one thing, and we can't solve it until now."

"What's the matter?" Katarina asked.

"It is not difficult for us to get in by relying on the strength of Mr. Speaker of the Council. But we have to rely on external forces to get out. Once we rely on external forces, there will be nothing left in the entire mausoleum."

Ezreal looked troubled, and rubbed his blond hair that had just been applied with conditioner.

It is not difficult to open a hole for them to pass through with the help of external force, but it is difficult to get them out of that hole. Once you use some kind of props to determine the coordinates, the ban on the mausoleum will be triggered.

If he had been let go, he would have gone in long ago, why would he care so much, the mausoleum would be gone when it was gone.

But this was his first battle after joining the empire, how could he be willing to be flawed.

If the ban on the mausoleum can be lifted, he will make a lot of money.

When the empire has finished scavenging the treasures inside, the sky will eventually be rebuilt here.

The brave and fearless explorer Ezreal made a major discovery. The only well-preserved mausoleum of the Icathian period in the mainland was excavated.

Oh my god, that's a hundred times greater than what Vazuun discovered.

Ezreal could already imagine that after the discovery was exposed, the archaeological and expedition circles regarded him as the **** of explorers.

So...don't miss out this time!

"Give me a specific time!" Katerina said lightly.

She didn't care whether the mausoleum was damaged, and Ryan didn't give a clear request. She just wanted to complete the task faster, and after following Ryan for so long, she could see how desperate he wanted that item.

"Give me another half a month, and I will definitely be able to figure out a way!" Ezreal said seriously.

Books about Icathia and Shurima, all three of them are ripping through the cracks these days.

It really doesn't work, he can only ask Mr. Speaker of the Parliament.

"it is good!"

Katerina got the answer and left the seminar room without any hesitation.

After he left, the anaconda slowed down, swallowed and said:

"Professor, Cassiopeia's sister is so strong... My body trembles without realizing it."

"What do you mean?" Cassiopeia looked at him badly.

She hates people who say that she is not as good as her sister. When facing her, the anaconda doesn't have such an expression.

"Ah... I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I mean... your sister is very scary, you and her are two kinds of people." Sen Ana hurriedly explained.

It's okay that he didn't explain it, but after explaining it, Cassiopeia narrowed her eyes:

"Am I that harmless?"

The anaconda listened and raised his head subconsciously...

Cassiopeia has an almost perfect face, and her beautiful figure complements each other under the background of the noble dress. The luxurious makeup and body unconsciously exude extravagance, making her look like a princess under the light of the seminar room...

He swore that he had never seen such a beautiful woman.

But compared to Katerina... he always felt that the other party lacked a little bit of vigor and killing intent.

After hesitating for a moment, he stammered:

"Cassiopeia, you are different, you are a good person!"

"Pfft..." Ezreal almost snickered when he heard this, but fortunately held back in time.

He held up a book to cover his expression, and his eyes glanced back and forth in an amusing manner.

A simple and honest boy said that a noble girl with a complicated mind is a good person, why does it sound interesting?

"Nice guy... hehe..."

Cassiopeia had a strange look on her face, and she also picked up a book, covering up the self-mockery at the corner of her mouth...

No one knows the sins she has committed better than herself. She is like a poisonous snake, secretly doing whatever it takes to achieve her goals.

But today... some people actually say that she is a good person, compared to that dazzling sister since childhood.

It's... ironic.

Seeing that both of them were holding up their books and didn't speak, Sen Yan was also a little confused and at a loss.

Fortunately, Ezreal pointed to the book in front of him, which made him suddenly realize, picked up the book and began to read it seriously.

He also has to find a way to lift the curse for his own people, so he can't slack off!

The immortal fortress, the temporary station of the light shield barrier.

Jia Wen put down the document written by his father with a complicated expression, sighed lightly, and asked the man in front of him:

"Uncle Nat, who else knows about this?"

Nat Lightshield, the deputy commander of the Dragon Bird Knights, the younger brother of Jarvan III, his uncle. He is almost 2 meters tall, and his body is full of explosive and strong muscles.

The fact that he personally delivered the letter was enough to prove the authenticity of the above.

At this moment, Nat's square face was full of seriousness, and he said in a deep voice:

"The eight high-ranking officials and Captain Galen Sword. As for whether they will spread out, it is unknown for the time being."

"Old General Laurent... well, I shouldn't have let him go." Jarvan sighed.

"This is a Noxian conspiracy, we can't avoid it." Nat's tone was filled with disgust for Noxus, "Even if we dodge this time, we will use other means next time."

"I know."

Jarvan shook his head, how could he not know. But falling behind will be beaten, there is no room to speak of.

"Uncle Nat, I'm sorry for something. This time, I ask you to go back and report to the father."

"What's the matter?" Turner opened his eyes slightly.

"The Light Shield Barrier killed 20 people in the Immortal Fortress, and they all died honorably." Jarvan said silently.

"Because of the previous defeat to the Trifali warband?" Turner frowned slightly, and quickly thought of the reason.

In the chaotic battle of a hundred people, the Light Shield Barrier was completely defeated by the Trifali Chapter, which is already known to both countries.

When the news came back to Xiongdu, the Demacians were relieved a lot.

"Yes, they killed more than 100 gladiators in Noxus, but unfortunately they also died in the end. All of them died in one-on-one gladiatorial combat, which was fair and just, and the other party didn't use any dirty means." Jarvan said solemnly.

He couldn't and shouldn't stop the soldiers from getting the glory and glory back, he could only make the situation controllable and stop making extraneous problems.

He will avenge the revenge of those dead soldiers sooner or later!

"They died heroically, but I don't want you to foolishly challenge the Noxians in the future. The current situation with Light Shield is very bad." Turner scolded in a deep voice.

"What happened to Xiongdu?"

Jarvan keenly discovered the problem, and Turner would only say this if something happened to Xiongdu.

Turner glanced at Jarvan and said earnestly:

"Brother Huang doesn't want me to tell you, but as a prince, you may have the right to know. I'm very conflicted."

"Uncle Nat, what happened? Please tell me!"

Jarvan had an eagerness on his face, he was afraid that something irreversible had happened.

Nat hesitated for a moment, met Jarvan's firm eyes, sighed slightly, and said:

"The Crown Guard family has secretly won over a lot of people. They are all people who once believed in the God of Flying Wings, and the girls from the next generation of their family came forward."

"Laxana? That's impossible!?" Jarvan's eyes widened.

In his eyes, she was a shy girl full of brilliance, how could she secretly win over people.

At this juncture, those who believed in the God of Flying Wings were attracted, and everyone knew what it meant.

"I'm not sure if your brother knows, but there is one thing we can be sure of. Before the war, he was transferred back to Xiongdu by Grand Marshal Tiana. That was not an order jointly issued by the emperor and the eight senior officials." Nat bluntly.

This sentence made Jia Wen's complexion change instantly.

He knows the potential meaning of his uncle...

Long before they went to war, the Crown Guard family had a different mind, and they were even suspected of collaborating with the enemy in advance.

And the death of those spies, it's hard to say that there are only black roses...

Nat glanced at the contemplative Jarvan, nodded with satisfaction, and continued:

"If the old general Laurent confirms that it is the black rose and the first in line to his family is his eldest son, that is also close to our people. But something happened recently, the old general's little granddaughter joined the trial mission ."

"The Judgment Mission... the girl who's going to marry the Crown Guard's sideline?" Jarvan's face was getting worse and worse.

No wonder he speculates on others with the greatest malice~www.mtlnovel.com~ It is really at this juncture that Demacia can't stand any toss.

He believed that Galen would not be involved, but he did not trust the rest of the Crownguard family.

He was particularly concerned about Laxana, the little girl who used to follow them, but he didn't expect that when Demacia was in danger...

"I already understand the general situation, Uncle Nat, I won't tell anyone about this." Jarvan quickly regained his senses and solemnly gave his assurance.

He knows that this information is a high-level secret of the kingdom. Even if he is the prince, he should not know it for the time being, at least not from Nat.

"It's good that you know this. I'll go back to Xiongdu first. I'll wait for your triumph there."

Nat patted Jarvan on the shoulder with relief, and explained some more, then left the station, took his dragon knight team, and left the immortal fortress.

As he rode on the dragon bird and flew into the sky, a strange smile appeared on the corner of Nat's mouth.

In his amber eyes, which are unique to the Light Shield family, the pattern of a black rose seems to be reflected.
