Chapter 398: Just a political game!

Chapter 398 - It’s just a political game!

"You're just weird!"

Lux looked closer to Katarina's eyes.

She was still very interested in this cold assassin whom she had only known for a short time.

She had also been asking what mission Catalina had done before, who she had assassinated, and what things she had encountered along the way.

What was the reason for being seriously injured this time?

However, Katarina chose to ignore Lux's series of questions.

After all, these questions are simply difficult to answer for Catalina.

The first is Lux’s first question.

What exactly did you do?

The assassin's missions are all dirty, and even I, as the executor of the mission, am absolutely unwilling to recall these things.

For Katarina, she used to be nothing more than a ruthless task machine.

But ever since I met Sona, I suddenly felt that what I had done before was really true.

It’s hard to describe in one word.

And it’s not just because of this reason that I can’t say it.

One more thing.

Then isn't the purpose of coming here to assassinate Jarvan III?

Do you want to tell Lux that she is actually the assassin who assassinated Jarvan III?

And then he failed in the assassination attempt?

In the end, he was abandoned by his own people, and he eventually ended up in this end.

It sounds very dramatic.

But this is not what Catalina wants!

This seems to be somewhat unprofessional.

What's more, it seems even more unspeakable to be assassinated like this by one of your own, right?

So Katarina has been holding back this question about Lux and doesn't want to talk about it.

But the more Katarina acted like this, the more curious Lux became about why Katarina never said anything about it.

"I think you'd better stop asking, they won't tell you at all."

Bai Ye muttered.

Lux's curiosity.

Maybe Lacus has many advantages, but there is one thing that Bai Ye feels is the biggest problem.

That's because the curiosity is too strong.

Not just curious about things outside of Demacia.

once Upon a time.

Bai Ye always thought that Lux was actually interested in these anecdotes.

But I didn't expect that I would be interested in assassination.

"All right."

Lux pursed her lips, not knowing anything about Katarina's assassination.

In fact, she was still a little disappointed in her heart.

But since Bai Ye has said it, Katarina will not tell herself this matter.

Narakus had no intention of continuing to ask questions.

In fact, Lux knew very well in her heart that Catalina would most likely not say anything.

But she did still have some expectations before.

It's just a pity that my expectations seemed to be dashed so easily.

"Actually, my assassination experience is nothing to talk about. I just issued a mission and then completed the mission myself."

Don't know why.

Catalina explained inexplicably.

This surprised Catalina herself.

I didn’t expect that I would actually explain it to Lux?

"Hmm, actually I think this is a bit dark."

In fact, Lux could tell it from Katarina's face afterwards.

It seemed that even Catalina herself didn't want to mention this matter.

This does seem to be too dark.

For now, I seem to be thinking a little too simply.

"kindness"

Catalina nodded and lost interest in continuing.

After all, this matter was not a glorious thing for her.

She was actually relieved in her heart, at least Lux wasn't particularly curious about this matter.

I don't need to think about how to answer her.

"Are you satisfied with the performance just now?"

Sona came over with Qin, and today’s performance is a new piece of music.

She has recently been studying how to integrate magic into music to make people more happy.

In fact, this was also an inspiration I got when I saved Catalina before.

And she just incorporated this into it.

I don’t know what Catalina’s current situation is.

"I think it sounds good."

Bai Ye didn't understand at all, but he still knew how to answer the other party's questions.

Can it still be said that it doesn’t sound nice? Besides, it sounds really good.

"It sounds great! The rhythm is even better than before!"

Lux felt that Bai Ye was just lying.

It was known before that Bai Ye didn't understand music at all.

Although Lux had never heard of it before.

But she is still very talented in this area.

"Did you incorporate the magic that healed me yesterday?"

Compared to Bai Ye, Katarina knows more.

"Is there any?"

Bai Ye turned to look at Sona, why didn't she feel it just now?

"It's because of yesterday's inspiration. I tested it specifically. It seems that people who are not injured will not be healed. They will only feel relaxed."

Sona explained.

And Bai Ye also realized that now Sona seemed not to have those abilities in the game at all.

Is it something you will develop yourself slowly in the future?

"By the way, Bai Ye, where are you going to go next?"

Sona asked curiously.

They wouldn't stay here long, although Sona didn't want to spoil the fun and ask about it before Byakuya left.

But she actually also wanted to know where Bai Ye and Lux ​​were going to go next.

"Let me think about it. Maybe Shurima or Piltover."

Bai Ye rubbed his chin, and the next two places he wanted to go to were these two places.

Because I have an agreement with Swain.

but

I had broken an appointment with Swain before.

I don’t know if Swain will cooperate with me again in the future.

never mind

Just go there first.

Bai Ye didn't think much about it. No matter whether he wanted to continue to cooperate or not, he would need to go there later because he brought Lux with him.

"Then if you want to go there, you should go through Noxus?"

Passing through Noxus?

Catalina rolled her eyes and had an idea in her mind.

However, she felt that this was not very good.

"We may not necessarily pass through there. If we go to Shurima first, we will take a boat directly across the sea to go to Shurima first, then from Shurima to Ixtal, and then go to Piltover. husband."

Bai Ye actually had a planned route.

But then you still have to look at your first route.

If you want to go to Piltover first, then you need to go to Noxus first.

If you're going to Shurima, you don't need to.

Mainly, Bai Ye feels a little guilty now,

After all, the assassination should have been successful before, but because of himself, it failed this time.

He beat Swain twice.

"I can do it, Bai Ye, it's up to you to decide!"

Being able to go out and play already made Lux very satisfied. As for where Bai Ye wanted to take her.

She said she could go anywhere, as long as she could go.

"Why don't you ask the little fox?"

Seeing that Bai Ye seemed hesitant, Lux also wanted to raise her hand to touch Ahri's head that was hidden under Bai Ye's clothes.

It was a surprise for her to know about Ah Li.

Anyway, Ah Li has been hiding in Bai Ye's clothes.

If she hadn't seen it accidentally, she wouldn't have known that there was a fox following them along the way.

But the moment she saw Ahri, Lux was attracted to Ahri.

Of course it was because of Ahri's beauty.

The pure white nine-tailed fox, with its good looks, is extremely lethal to girls.

But Ahri seems to be repelling them all?

In other words, he just kept hiding, only willing to hide here in Bai Ye.

"Forget it, no one wants to come out."

Bai Ye raised his hand and touched Ah Li's head.

This goblin pretends to be weak and dependent on herself.

If he hadn't known that this guy had been secretly absorbing his magic power, he would have almost believed Ahri's appearance.

In fact, Bai Ye probably understood why Ah Li suddenly changed like this.

Mainly because Ahri had tried to absorb his own soul once before.

But after discovering that he couldn't do it, Ahri changed his strategy.

Ahri began to hide, pretending to be scared of the outside world.

Then I hid and absorbed it slowly.

But this has no effect on Bai Ye, so forget it.

"Oh, why is this little fox so clinging to you? It doesn't want anything I give it to eat."

A trace of pity flashed across Lux's face.

She is irresistible to this adorable creature.

Every time Lux wanted to come up with something to attract Ahri.

But for Ahri, she didn't dare to be interested at all.

"You don't understand."

"."

Again I don’t understand.

Lux couldn't find a reason to refute.

"Let's go to Shurima first."

The decision is made.

Not going to Piltover now.

After all, it would be difficult if Swain caught him in Noxus.

Lux didn't have any objections either.

The concert ended and everyone returned to the hotel.

In Bai Ye's room, a crow turned its head to look at him when he returned to the room.

"Hello, I didn't expect to meet you here!"

Bai Ye was a little embarrassed.

Nima

Originally, I went to Shurima first because I didn’t want to meet Swain.

The main reason is that I am a little embarrassed.

But what I didn't expect was that Swain actually came here on his own.

"I came here specifically to find you."

Crow spoke.

He came here specifically to find Bai Ye.

"You did not contact Catalina, and you also prevented this assassination mission."

"There was an accident in the middle."

Bai Ye shrugged, surely he couldn't admit it was his mistake.

Of course, this matter can only be pushed to the point where some accidents occurred in the middle.

"I'm not here to blame you."

"Huh? You don't blame me?"

Bai Ye had already prepared that Swain would blame him.

In the end, Swain actually said that he was not to blame for this incident?

"Because this matter is not led by me, although the current chaos in Demacia is good for me, it is more good for that guy.

So when I asked you to contact Catalina, you were just trying it out.

Regardless of success or failure, I can accept it. "

Swain explains why.

In fact, for him, no matter what the outcome is, he can accept it.

At the same time, this matter is of greater benefit to LeBlanc.

It doesn't matter if you fail.

He and LeBlanc only reconciled on the surface.

"That's it, then I don't care."

Bai Ye is numb.

Before, I was still thinking about whether Swain would ask me to cooperate.

Although it is dispensable to Bai Ye.

But to a large extent, it is really possible that I will cooperate with Swain in the future.

"I actually came here to ask you a favor."

Swain stated his purpose.

And Bai Ye was also thinking in her heart at this moment.

Swain had told himself three things before.

wrong

It must have been four times.

Before, it counted once for Ionia, once for Demacia, and twice after that.

Now Swain actually wants to ask him to do something.

This also made Bai Ye seriously doubt whether Swain had a hobby in this area.

Otherwise, how could I keep asking myself.

Have been stabbed in the back twice.

Speaking of which, it seems that I also have backstab attributes?

After thinking about it for a moment, Bai Ye felt like he could agree, then he nodded and asked, "Yes, but if I feel it's inappropriate, I will refuse!"

Bai Ye didn't say anything too absolute.

Because Bai Ye himself didn't know if he could do it.

He had already been stabbed in the back twice. If he was stabbed again in the future, it felt like Swain would never trust him again.

After that, the cooperation between the two parties may really cease.

"No problem, if you don't think it's okay, forget it."

Swain didn't say much, and then directly told Bai Ye his purpose: "I hope you can take Katarina with you during this period of time."

kindness! ?

Bai Ye had thought about many possibilities before.

But didn’t you expect Swain to take Katarina with him?

Why did he suddenly let himself bring Catalina with him?

Could it be because I was really bad at doing tasks before?

So Swain is a little worried about himself.

That's why?

"It's not because I doubt you."

Nima

Swain has indeed become a bit scary since he gained the power of the devil.

But Swain was known as a wise general in the past.

"Katrina's current situation is not suitable for returning to Noxus, so I want Katarina to follow you to Runeterra during this period, and then let her come back after I have the situation under control."

Monitoring Bai Ye?

This is simply not necessary!

In Swain's view, this was just protecting Katarina.

In Swain's view, Katarina is a malleable talent, and since LeBlanc wants to kill Katarina.

The more Swain wants to protect Katarina.

Katarina will definitely help him deal with LeBlanc in the future.

So before that, Swain didn't want to see any accidents happen.

This is nothing more than a game between political struggles.

One wants her to die, the other wants her to live.
