Battle of the Twin Cities: The Ninth Councilor

Chapter 28 The Death of Benso
"For a while, I thought what I was going to do was reduce the shock."

In the destroyed studio, after lighting the oil lamp, under the bright light, Jess and Victor drew the theoretical data obtained by their synthesis on the ruined wall.

"Gems can only remain stable under high-frequency conditions, so we must..." After finishing the final calculation, Victor turned around and pointed at Jess with a chalk, and was about to say his calculation results.

"Increase the energy!" Jess understood. He didn't dare to think like this before. Just look at the fate of the studio. Once the control is not good, the energy inside the hex gem will leak out instantly, causing a violent explosion.

"Yes, increase the energy." Victor was relieved.

Jess has such comprehension, and the two of them can cooperate to better complete the research topic and make Hex Technology come into being.

"That's it!" Jess became excited, he couldn't wait to test the results calculated by the two, "If I have my equipment, we can test it."

"Uh... your equipment... will be destroyed tomorrow." Victor said in a heavy tone.

"What?!" Jace jumped up in shock, standing up straight from where he was sitting.

Those equipments are all his painstaking efforts. Not only will it take a lot of energy to manufacture them, but they will also need financial resources that they cannot afford at present.

Once the equipment is destroyed, it can be said that all the current progress of Hex Technology will come to naught.

Because they don't have enough money to buy the corresponding materials and restore the previous experimental equipment.

"I... I wanted to tell you at the beginning, but it's not too late now." Victor took off a bunch of keys from his waist, and said a plan that seemed outrageous to Jess: "All equipment and leftovers The gems are in Heimerdinger's laboratory."

"Wait... No, no, no, no, no!" At this time, Jess became sober in the world: "You heard what the council said, if the calculation is wrong..."

"Then don't make mistakes." Victor encouraged: "Have you forgotten the blueprint that Marcus gave us?"

With the drawings provided by Marcus, they can indeed verify whether the calculation results are correct.

But... when calculations always make mistakes, no one can guarantee that their first calculation will be successful.

Science is a rigorous discipline, and results that have not been verified are unreliable.

And the verification takes time. After they are successfully verified, the experimental equipment may have been destroyed long ago.

It can be said that Victor's proposal is playing with fire. Once the result of this calculation cannot be proved to be correct, their behavior of sneaking into Heimerdinger's laboratory is tantamount to playing with fire and setting themselves on fire.

"Why? Why did you take this risk?" Jess didn't understand, because Victor could have stayed out of it.

"Do you think my ideal is to be a teaching assistant for the rest of my life?" Victor said from the bottom of his heart, every word is full of sincerity: "The mission of a scientist is to explore, to explore ways to make the world a better place, and your Hex technology Dreams...have such potential."

This concept once again coincides with Jess, giving Jess the resonance of meeting a confidant.

"You also have a share in this dream."

"And Marcus," Victor added.

"Marcus? Who is Marcus?" Jess was very surprised, then his expression changed, and he said narrowly: "Of course he has a share, and his credit is no worse than ours."

That mediocre law enforcement officer could come up with future blueprints and hand them over to them without reservation, so Jess was full of respect for Marcos.

In all fairness, if Jess himself had the blueprints, he would definitely not share them with others if he had a choice.

"He must also be a scientist with lofty ideals..."

Jess sighed from the bottom of his heart as he looked at Piltover under the night sky through the gap in the ruins of the workshop.

With such advanced drawings, he could have been a pioneer, a great scientist.

But for the safety of the people, he chose to become a law enforcement officer and gave up his dream of scientific research. What a great sacrifice!
At the same time, the "scientist with lofty ideals" that Jess said was still dealing with business in the dark alley.

The bullet shot at the mutant warrior's head was twisted by the opponent in the air, and he dodged it.

But this short delay successfully covered the three law enforcement officers who escorted Grayson to evacuate.

Seeing this, Marcus let out a long sigh of relief.

Next, it depends on Grayson's own vitality. Whether he can survive such a serious injury is another matter.

He's done everything he can.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

Steady and powerful applause sounded from the haze-shrouded street, and a thin, middle-aged man slowly approached from a distance. He had an eye that glowed orange.

"Shirko!"

Ben Suo and Van der squinted their eyes, saw the man's face clearly, and were immediately furious.

You know, Van der went out to take the blame, which could eliminate most of the contradictions.

But the attack on the law enforcement officer just now undoubtedly poured a bucket of oil on this matter, and made things develop in an unknown direction.

Whether Grayson is dead or alive, Piltover has every reason to take on Zaun.

At that time, well-equipped law enforcement officers will swarm in, which will undoubtedly be a devastating blow to Zaun.

Facing the old acquaintance with bad intentions, Ben Suo pulled out a steel pipe from the side, stepped forward slowly, and cursed angrily: "You beast, I don't care which dog hole you crawled out of, where did you come from?" Just go back to me!"

The group headed by Vander had a conflict with Silko six years ago. At that time, Vander had a chance to kill the other party, but Silko escaped.

After successfully escaping, the black alley only marginalized Shirko and did not kill them all.

Benso thought that when Silko saw him, it would be impossible for him to kill him.

But, he was wrong.

Fandre saw a trace of ruthlessness on Silko's face that was different from that of the past, and realized that the situation was wrong, and shouted from behind: "Benso, don't go there!"

The monster hidden in the haze must belong to Shirko's group, and Benso is definitely not their opponent.

"You always get in the way when you should!"

Silko spoke in a serious tone, and said slowly, showing no fear of Bensuo approaching with the steel pipe.

"Stop...he..."

Van der yelled at Marcos, and he didn't know whether he wanted Marcos to stop Shirko, or whether he wanted Marcos to pull Benzo back.

Unfortunately, it's too late.

A burly figure jumped down from the side roof, knocking Bensuo flying out of him.

The man who weighed nearly three hundred catties was knocked into the air like a rag bag, and the hideous monster ignored Ben Suo's howl, tearing his body madly with its claws.

Arms, legs, abdomen, neck, Ben Suo's voice quickly disappeared, leaving only fragments of corpses on the ground.

"No!!!" Fandre watched all this, heartbroken.

"Hmph, so stubborn until death." Silko's face was as cold as ice, without a trace of sympathy or intolerance.

Marcus slowly loaded the ammunition, and at the moment when Bensuo completely died, his movements obviously paused.

one life...

Just gone?
Although he had already made up his mind not to save Ben Suo who must die in the plot, but when he witnessed a living person die in front of him, his heart was full of indescribable feelings.

"Sorry... I don't have the ability to save him..."

Marcus lowered his head, feeling complicated. He didn't know if he was defending himself, or he was speaking specifically for Fandre.
