Chapter 408: High-stakes Gambling, All-in

Exit sounds like a very simple word, but everyone present understands it...

No, it should be said that except for a few people, everyone understands that this withdrawal is not just about quitting, but a complete break with the present.

Nowadays, the people in this conference room are all powerful figures in all aspects, and they all hold a certain amount of power.

Withdrawing at this time, Olan would not be able to hand over this position to those of them who do not want to participate in big events. They must be replaced by someone who is willing to do so.

As for the people who were originally in this position, assigning them to idle positions is the best decision.

After all, giving up means that it is no longer useful. To give up at this time is to completely break up with Piltover.

Moreover, being assigned to idle positions is considered a relatively good situation. When encountering some monarchs with more extreme personalities, the door is no longer the door to leave, but the door to hell.

It's just that the meaning behind Olan's words seems to be that he wants to confront the World Government, which still makes some people doubtful and not sure how to make decisions.

The book world is very quiet. But the silence didn't last long, and was soon broken.

"Whatever! Anyway, things like the World Government and the Celestial Dragons have always been annoying. They don't want this matter to be revealed, and they must want to hide it as a secret.

If they find out about this, they might do something. I am very satisfied with my current life. If anyone wants to ruin my life, just blow him away! "

There was no body search before entering the conference room. The generals also brought their own weapons. At this time, a mace was smashed on the ground and he said simple and straightforward remarks.

The person who spoke first naturally attracted everyone's attention. The person who said this was Yamato. Her mind was quite simple and she didn't make so many twists and turns.

This country makes her feel comfortable, so she wants to maintain her own living environment. Those who may destroy this place are naturally her enemies.

She didn't understand things like righteousness very well. There were only a few people who could put their own life and death aside for the sake of righteousness and the future of others. Most of them were concerned with their own interests.

Before the fire burns to their house, this kind of people's mentality is more to watch the excitement, but by making good use of this mentality, they can also bring these people together.

Yamato's words were very straightforward, but they also reminded the people here that they can leave today, but if Piltover fails in the future, this place will become the new territory of the World Government.

Oran is willing to listen to their explanation, but will the World Government listen?

Once the emperor and the courtiers, by then, the best outcome for them would probably be to start from scratch again.

In the end, no one chose to quit, but stayed and began to adjust the operating model of Firefly Island in accordance with the new decree issued by Oran.

The island seems to have not changed much, but some factories have quietly adjusted their production lines, allowing the entire island to silently enter a state of pre-war preparation.

"How about it, Ginny, have you chosen?"

"After being elected, this group of people want to follow us from the bottom of their hearts. These people also have bad feelings towards the World Government, and even have a grudge against them, and have the same ideas as us.

The rest are mainly for profit, that's basically it. "

After most people left the conference room, Oran began to communicate with Ginny.

Olan is not interested in stealing other people's inner thoughts, but mind reading is still useful when it needs to be used.

At least this can temporarily discern what these people are thinking.

Piltover is a country of immigrants, and foreigners account for a large proportion of the population. In addition to those who immigrate envy of the environment here, there are also people who have lost their families for various reasons and have to go out to survive.

Interest, righteousness, revenge and hatred, all kinds of different emotions can connect people together in a delicate way.

"I understand. Just do what you arranged before. I have other things to do, so that's it."

After hanging up the communication with Ginny, Oran came to the last person in the book world. From the beginning, he smiled and didn't express any opinions. Instead, he kept thinking.

"Your Excellency Yixiao, is there anything else you want to say?"

"Your Majesty Oran, I have heard that you are special, and I have indeed seen all of this over the years. But your thoughts... are still beyond my expectations.

This will probably be a war that affects the entire sea. "

"Perhaps, but the possibility is very small. If I just wanted to start a war, I could have done so a few years ago. Waiting for these years is to minimize the losses and prevent possible accidents. "

"Does Your Majesty want to be a hero? Or be the new master of the blank throne?"

"No, I'm not interested in those things. My relatives and friends have suffered because of the Celestial Dragons. They are the cancer of the world, and the high heavenly gold is squeezing everyone.

It just so happens that they are the ones protected by the world government. In the eyes of many people, they are even right, so such a change will occur. "

"Is this so..."

Yixiao also has the idea of ​​​​changing this situation, but his change is not to use violence to break the situation from the outside. He wants to gradually change internally to reduce casualties.

This is also the reason why Yi Xiaohui in the original timeline was willing to become a navy. Although he was deeply involved in the casino at the time, it was his own way of escaping reality.

If he is unwilling, with their strength, it will be difficult for the World Government to force him to become a general.

In any case, a large-scale war will affect a wide range of people, so Yixiao has some opinions at this time.

"Yixiao, the roots of this big tree are rotten. No matter how beautifully the branches and leaves are trimmed, it is just an illusion. If you want to cure this disease, you have to take strong medicine.

The World Government does represent the existing order, but this order has been deliberately maintaining chaos and using the misfortune of others to highlight its own correctness.

There are also good people in the Navy and the World Government. They are worth fighting for, but they need some small help to make them make choices in advance."

The World Government in the past may have real justice, and perhaps hundreds of years ago, they were the real popular choice.

They may be thieves who stole the fruits of victory, or they may be rebels in the past, but no matter what they looked like hundreds of years ago, the World Government today has deteriorated.

"It seems that Your Majesty, you are not completely denying this organization."

"The organization is not wrong, it is the people who are wrong. I don't know what happened in the blank history, and I don't want to know. No matter what achievements their ancestors made, they can't cover up the sins of today.

Yixiao, your behavior of destroying your own eyes is actually covering your ears and stealing the bell. Although you will not see the tragic events and ugly facts with your own eyes, they still exist objectively.

These words are not difficult to understand. Maybe you can read a story and experience it from it."

The scene changed, and Oran and Yixiao appeared in the snow. The cold touch of the snow was extremely real, but what shocked Yixiao the most was that he could see again.

"This is...:"

"It's just some illusions. The eyes convey the images to the human brain so that people can see the images. I used some tricks to make the illusion appear directly in your mind, so you will feel that you can see again."

What Yixiao saw was the history of Valoran, which is an extremely long history. The land of Shurima was still green, and magical creatures roamed in the Rune Land. There were constant wars between countries and regions.

Now this land of ice and snow is called Freljord, or more accurately, Volligard.

Humans are extremely weak at this moment, especially in this cold land, where humans are struggling for survival every moment.

This environment will give birth to leaders, and one day, the three ice sisters were born.

Lissandra, Serilda and Avarosa began to desire more power to control the direction of the war, but they paid a painful price for this.

Cerilda's goal is the power of the Protoss in the starry sky, but she lost her voice to the original Twilight Protoss, and she has become mute ever since.

Avarosa saw the void below the world and lost her hearing in the battle.

Lissandra fought with the native demigods on the land of Freljord, but was blinded by Volibear and lost her vision.

The three were not complete, but united. Lissandra fought countless battles on the ice field, allowing humans to gain a foothold here, and even had a tendency to unify Freljord.

"This is their way to rise, Yixiao, what do you think the future will be like?"

"They will walk out of this ice field, I don't understand those powers, but they cooperate with each other and are invincible on this ice field. I believe they can establish a new order."

"Unfortunately, you guessed wrong. They are close sisters, but it's a pity that this blood bond has faded after all."

Yixiao replaced his eyes with observation Haki after he disabled his eyes. Even if it is not as convenient as eyes, it does not have much impact on life.

Lissandra naturally does not have such a thing as domineering, but as a magic user of the early era, Lissandra also has her own methods, even very similar to Orlan's methods.

Lissandra can walk in dreams and see the world from other people's perspectives, but she discovered something different in the process.

The creature that took away Avarosa's hearing power not only means the end, but also means infinity, which is full of crises and potential.

Lissandra made a deal with those powerful forces without telling her sisters, and made a deal with them in the name of the three sisters.

The three sisters prepared Runeland for their arrival. They gave the three sisters almost immortal power, and their name was the Watchers-Void Watchers.

This power gave birth to a new special group in Freljord-Iceborn.

They are naturally not afraid of the cold and have become the strong in this land of ice and snow, but this power has a price.

Lissandra couldn't keep this secret forever. Avarosa and Serilda soon learned about it and realized the dangerous thoughts of those void creatures.

Letting them into this world is definitely not a good thing.

Avarosa believes that there is only one thing in the world worse than death-being enslaved.

The goal of the Void Watchers is to enslave the world, and Serilda believes that this is not the end they deserve for the world they are fighting for.

Lissandra comforted the sisters while perfunctorily dealing with the Watchers. She never gave her heart to the Watchers and never wanted to bring them here.

After that, the three sisters found Ornn and asked him to dig a bottomless pit, which was later called the Howling Abyss.

At the same time, the Void did not intend to keep its promise and began its invasion before the time was up.

At this moment, Lissandra had two choices: wait for the whole world to be swallowed by the void, betting whether the void would keep its promise, or give up everything she cherished.

In the end, Lissandra chose the latter. Lissandra sacrificed her sisters and their gathered allies, and buried the watchers under the barrier of the glacier at the cost of never melting True Ice.

But Lissandra found that this method was not eternal, and the power of darkness was eroding the ice layer unknowingly.

As the only survivor of the three sisters, Lissandra summoned the remaining followers.

[Avarosa and Serilda are gone, but their cause is not yet completed. Be loyal to me! Remember my sisters and complete their legacy! From now on, your name is, Frost Guard! ]

True Ice is the only thing in Lissandra's hand that can delay this process. Even if it means slow death, Lissandra also tries her best to summon all Iceborn to join this rescue.

The Frost Guard, that is, the Ice Guard tribe, controls all records of the truth, conceals what is under the abyss and rewrites history.

The scenery in front of Yixiao changed again, and the feeling of coldness completely dissipated, but everything he had just experienced was still "vivid".

"Causing trouble and concealing history, it seems familiar, isn't it?"

"Indeed, what that lady did... I can't judge..."

Gaining power is for survival, and it's hard to criticize this point, but the trouble in this matter was caused by Lissandra, and even if she made amends afterwards, it can't cover up the past mistakes.

"It doesn't make sense to say that merits and demerits offset each other at this time. Right is right and wrong is wrong. I don't deny that the order brought by the world government has indeed brought stability to many people, but the world government is the root of unrest.

The world needs order, but not this kind of order.

It's better to suffer a short pain than a long pain. Instead of letting it continue to rot, it's better to be straightforward.

Instead of dwelling on the past, why not imagine whether we can bring a better future to the world. I'll stop here, Mr. Yixiao, if you are not interested in the future, then I won't force it."

"What a gamble... Since you have all bet everything, I can't stay out of it. The beautiful world... I also want to see it.

King Oran, this time, I will go all in with you."
