Battle of the Twin Cities: The Ninth Councilor

Chapter 121 Night Summoning
fez.

The carriage driver who was in charge of contacting Marcus five years ago.

During these five years, every time Silko wanted to deal with a certain gang, he was the one who notified Marcos.

Since Marcos revealed his "true face", Fith seldom came forward, stayed in the upper city as an honest carriage driver, and collected what he had seen and heard in the upper city.

He also brought back the information about the Hexfly Gate, but it was a bit late when Silko ordered him to collect the relevant information, which led to the unequal information between Silko and Marcus.

"Boss, look for me."

Faith was notified quickly and rushed to Fulgan's Tavern.

"Ah."

Silko looked at Fith, and a plan quickly formed in his mind: "Go and tell Marcos, I have something to ask him."

Even Shirko would not be able to blatantly send his subordinates to sneak into the upper city to assassinate the target. Only when the person comes to the lower city, the prey will be considered as stepping into the trap he set up.

"Yes."

Feith didn't ask any more questions, and left the tavern to return to the upper city after receiving the mission.

After Fez left, Silko lightly tapped his fingers on the desk surface, making a dull 'dong dong' sound.

His one-eyed eyes were deep, and even Sevica couldn't see what Shirko was thinking at this moment.

Just at this time, one of his subordinates ran into Fulgen's Tavern in a panic, shouting loudly: "It's bad, a few law enforcement officers suddenly attacked and attacked several strongholds that produced Shimmer, and the brothers suffered heavy losses!"

The hand that knocked on the table paused slightly, and Silko's face darkened.

Seeing this, Sevica yelled angrily: "Trash, just a few law enforcement officers!"

"Sevica." The subordinate gasped for breath, tried to swallow a few times, and moistened the dry throat: "They...they are all masters, with good marksmanship, and two guys are like gods of war. Brothers, as long as they are close Body, one face to face was brought down!"

Shirko came out and said coldly: "Didn't you ask you to lock all the entrances and exits during delivery? How did they get in?"

"No, I don't know!" The subordinate said bitterly: "We obviously locked all the doors. They seem to have a master lockpicker. Entering our factory is like entering the land of no one. Those locks can't stop them at all!"

"Where's Shimmer Warrior?"

Sevica asked: "Didn't you send the left-behind shimmer fighters to fight?"

"The incident happened suddenly, and the low-light fighters were knocked down before they had time to drink the potion." Reported by subordinates: "They seem to know the distribution of our factory well. After they came in, they had a clear goal and immediately controlled the low-light fighters. It’s too late for us to rest in the area!”

After hearing this, Silko's eyes twitched slightly, and he said a name: "Marcos!"

Marcos must have instructed those law enforcement officials to do this!
In the past five years, he has often been in and out of the bottom city, and he has secretly grasped so much information about himself, but he does not know it.

Fortunately, the strongholds that were taken away this time were almost all small workshops under his command, and all the losses added up did not reach the level of injury.

It means that Marcos didn't mean to turn his face directly, it was more like giving himself a warning?
Shirko's heart boiled with anger, and he felt aggrieved.

Since he took control of the bottom city, no one has ever been so difficult as Marcus.

If he hadn't made complete preparations, he couldn't easily have disputes with Shangcheng.

If Marcos hadn't restricted his channels for smuggling Shimmer through Piltover, his strength and power wouldn't have developed so slowly.

If you get rid of Marcos, it seems that all the troubles will be solved.

Silko said with a sullen face: "Sevica, you take someone to deal with this matter."

Sevica nodded slightly, gave a look to several subordinates sitting in the corner, and led them out of Fulgan's Tavern together.

"Marcos..." Silko murmured, his expression changed suddenly, he turned and entered the office, and rushed to the desk to find a brass needle with a sleeve.

He raised his head to face his left eye, and after pressing, the needle pierced the cornea and injected a small amount of shimmering medicine.

Immediately, the pained look on his face quickly eased, and he became relaxed.

Shirko's left eye was corroded by chemicals, resulting in an unknowable mutation, and he was already blind.

This was the 'gift' left by Vander to himself back then. Silko wanted to remember him, so he didn't have his eyeballs amputated.

Because of this, the left eye has a tingling sensation all the time, as if someone inserted a finger into the brain through this eye to stir it, which is extremely painful.

Only the special shimmer potion made by Singed for him can temporarily alleviate such pain.

After alleviating the attack of hidden eye disease, Silko sat weakly on the chair and whispered the name again: "Marcos..."

……

Marcus, the roadblock to the rise of Zaun, slept until midnight. He was so hungry that he didn’t have time to wash up. He hurriedly dressed and came out of his residence, looking for shops that were still open at this time, and prepared to get some food. full stomach.

"Mr. Marcus..."

A familiar figure appeared in front of him, blocking his way.

Marcus helplessly raised his forehead: "Can you wait until I'm full? I've been here all day... oh no, it should be said that I haven't eaten anything since yesterday!"

"That's just right." Selina chuckled lightly, "I can order the chefs in the manor to cook you some special dishes."

Marcus tilted his head and thought for a while, turned around and climbed into the luxurious carriage, urging: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!"

Marcos knew very well the cooking skills of the Philos family. A box of dim sum five years ago made him never forget it.

Unfortunately, in the following years, he never tasted it again.

The box of snacks was actually given by Camille for the sake of Marcus saving Selena. Later, Marcos didn't contribute much to others, so naturally he didn't have the chance to enjoy it.

Seeing Marcos' urgency, Selena shook her head dumbfounded, and gracefully boarded the carriage.

Immediately afterwards, this carriage, one of the most luxurious in Piltover, started quickly in the dark, and rushed all the way to Philos Manor.

On the way, Marcos tentatively asked Selena: "What's the rush? Camille made you wait here and now wants to take me to the manor?"

Selena didn't answer, but said: "The lord's affairs, we servants dare not ask. But Miss Camille told me to take you there as soon as I saw you anyway, and explain the matter It must be urgent."

Of course Marcus knew that the matter was urgent, and he even had some guesses about what happened in his heart.

It can make Camille ignore the time and call him over in the middle of the night, which means that there is something wrong with the Hex crystal.

Just don't know what went wrong.
