The Glory of Noxus.

Chapter 282 The choice of fate at the crossroads
[Type MK6: Earth-Drilling Robot]

The black curtain slid down, and the Hextech robot developed by Professor Heimerdinger appeared in front of everyone.

The whole body of the earth-drilling robot is silver, with a metallic luster. It is both sturdy and full of a cold sense of technology.

At the front of the machine is a huge silver drill bit with threads, sharp and hard, as if it can penetrate any obstacle.

Behind the drill bit is the part where the boom and the frame are connected.

This is the most important part of the earth-drilling robot, responsible for providing strong power and stability.

Finally, there is the metal body of the earth-penetrating robot, which is about three people tall, huge and heavy.

There were subtle stone wall marks left on the metal body when passing through the safe passage.

From the appearance of the robot in front of him, it can be seen that Piltover went all out for this operation in Stillwater Prison.

Buzz!Buzz!
Wearing a blue uniform and gold-rimmed glasses, the Hextech inventor walked up to the earth-drilling robot and input commands skillfully.

Whoops! Whoops!
The Hex core roared, the silver drill rotated, and gusts of wind appeared.

The steel hook quickly shot to the bottom of the hole and attached tightly to the solid wall.

Fine stones fell like raindrops, covering the surrounding ground.

There are lights on the dark top, like stars dotting the night sky, dispelling the surrounding darkness.

A hole appeared on the ground, and more and more rocks and dust were piled up.

Following his operation, the earth-penetrating robot started slowly, made a low sound, and drove to the location of Huo Jixing.

Huo Jixing looked calm and looked at the earth-drilling robot in front of him, marveling at the changes brought about by Hex Technology.

Hearing Camille's words, Huo Jixing and Caitlin looked at each other, nodded slowly, and prepared to enter the cave entrance.

After being entrusted by Jace, she knew the importance of this operation and the urgency of time.

Through the hole cut by the drill, a thick layer of metal sandwich panels can be seen.

It was because Urgot was too big, and the hole was dug by the earth-boring robot, which delayed it for a while.

Camille's calm voice came.

After landing.

"It's safe, you can come down."

Caitlin was a little anxious.

Caitlin's expression changed and she immediately walked to the side of the earth-boring robot.

The ground-drilling robot was running at full speed, and the fine gravel and dust it brought up felt a little damp.

Camille nodded slightly, signaling Caitlin to come back first, and then asked the Hextech inventor to continue starting the earth-drilling robot.

The members of the police team stepped aside one after another, away from the sand and drills.

Immediately afterwards, the drill bit seemed to have touched something hard, making a metallic impact sound.

Looking at the position of the earth-penetrating robot, she became somewhat suspicious of Huo Jixing.

Camille grabbed the hook, pulled it gently, and slid down lightly.

The Hextech inventor shut down the earth-drilling robot at the right time, causing it to stop where it was.

Perhaps the location of the experimental base is not down there at all.

Caitlin and Camille also paid attention, waiting for the final result.

But the hole is getting bigger, but the desired experimental base location has not yet been found.

Until the speed reached its extreme, the hurricane swept through the low prison, causing flying sand and rocks.

"I'll go down first."

As the drill bit rotated, vibrations came from the underground. The metal sandwich panel could no longer hold on and quickly shattered, revealing a hidden dark passage.

Buzz!

Immediately, the Hex device glowing blue on her thigh fired a hook that could be attached to the terrain.

The ground-drilling robot continued to roar, cutting into the specially treated hard ground.

After a while.

Huo Jixing was looking around, waiting for Urgot to come down.

The space inside the passage is surprisingly wide, allowing four or five people to walk side by side.

Just when Caitlin was suspicious, the earth-drilling robot suddenly made a sharp sound.

In the dark passage.

They closely watched the movements of the earth-penetrating robot, hoping that it would successfully find the location of the hidden experimental base.

Camille walked to the entrance of the cave and spoke softly to Huo Jixing and Caitlin.

Just a moment.

Click! Click! Click!

When Urgot came down, Caitlin and Camille walked towards him.

"We have to be careful."

Camille looked at the passage extending to an unknown place, feeling a little uneasy.

"This should be the secret experimental base of the forces behind the Eye of Zaun. The danger is essential."

Huo Jixing nodded and agreed.

He looked up at the entrance of the cave and saw many members of the police team staying on the ground.

On the one hand, it is to leave a safe escape route and ensure that you can leave quickly when encountering danger.

On the other hand, it also protects the earth-penetrating robot from being destroyed when left unattended.

Dim yellow lights flickered in the passage.

The group stayed quiet and walked along the smooth and thick road.

In the corners of the metal walls on both sides, you can still see moss and mold intertwined.

The figures of the people also cast long shadows under the light, which gradually changed with their steps.

Huo Jixing was always alert to the movements around him, and his pupils were filled with red-golden light.

He saw many clouds rising, but they were far away and no longer nearby.

At the same time, he also discovered that the metal walls in the passage had been specially treated.

The spiritual power cannot extend too far, up to about ten meters.

Faintly, Huo Jixing heard the subtle sound of water flowing.

Then he immediately thought of the wet rocks and dust brought up by the previous earth-boring robot.

"This passage is built at the bottom of the Piart River." Huo Jixing sighed secretly.

"No, that's not right."

He rejected his inner thoughts.

"To be precise, it should be that this secret experimental base directly penetrates the bottom of Stillwater Prison and goes deep into the river bottom."

"And such a huge project was actually hidden from the Piltover Council. It seems that there are people inside helping to cover it up."

Accompany them in depth.

Camille seemed to be aware of this, as a cold look appeared in her eyes.

With her keen sense, she observed that the air in the passage was somewhat humid, and she also saw water stains on the metal walls on both sides.

"Piart River!"

After passing a corner of the passage, everyone's vision suddenly became clear.

In front of the group of people, four almost identical passages appeared.

Thick dark gray iron gates were erected in front of each passage, blocking their way forward.

Looking carefully, the surface of the dark gray iron door is extremely smooth, with no trace left.

Behind it, there was a faint sound of gears running.

Huo Jixing's eyes flickered, and he looked at the flashing red light above the iron gate with awareness, and waved gently.

Buzz!Buzz!
Red-gold fireworks appeared out of thin air.

Then, it split apart and shot out like arrows, falling towards the red light on the iron door.

Click! Click! Click! Click!
The red light shattered into pieces and scattered on the ground.

The thick dark gray iron door was also burned by the power of the flames, making a violent sound, and bursts of thick smoke rose.

This means that their internal defenses have been breached and burned to the ground.

Huo Jixing's actions quickly attracted everyone's attention.

However, after seeing Huo Jixing's half-smiling expression, they fell into silence.

Huo Jixing remained silent and stood with Urgot, waiting quietly. Camille's eyes flashed, and a trace of hesitation flashed across her hard and cold face, and finally turned into determination.

"Let's split up."

After seeing Huo Jixing's extraordinary strength, she had concerns in her heart.

And as the chief spy and decision-maker of the Philos family, Camille is also very interested in the Source Project.

Otherwise, she would not have personally participated in this operation.

"can!"

Caitlin agreed.

Before she entered Stillwater Prison, the Gila Mann family and Jace talked to her respectively, and the content was very simple.

Obtain data from the experimental base.

Caitlin was very aware of her own strength, so she nodded in agreement.

"I don't have a problem either." Huo Jixing's eyes flashed and he answered.

After a brief discussion.

Camille and Caitlin each led a police team and entered the two passages on the right.

"Sir, us?"

Urgot moved his body slightly, looked at the two remaining passages on the left, and cast his eyes on Huo Jixing.

"I'll leave you alone."

Huo Jixing answered casually, and then he seemed to remember something and patted Urgot's armor.

"Don't show off. If there is danger, make sure you are safe first."

In his field of vision, many clouds were entangled together. The situation in the four channels was very different.

Urgot nodded, moved his armored legs, and entered the chosen passage.

Huo Jixing is very confident about Urgot's strength. There are not many people in Piltover and Zaun who can take his life.

Then he walked to the leftmost passage.

In the dark passage.

The lights above were getting dimmer, and the humid air was mixed with a putrid smell.

Huo Jixing raised his brows slightly, and the red-gold light in his eyes became more intense.

There seems to be something unusual in this passage.

After walking a hundred steps forward, the putrid smell became stronger and stronger.

Huo Jixing came to this wide square, which was filled with all kinds of waste and garbage.

Some are rotten and smelly, some are contaminated with chemical pollution, and some are glowing purple.

The garbage piled up like a mountain, almost filling the square.

The many smells mixed together made it difficult to breathe.

"Is this a garbage dump?" Huo Jixing felt a little disappointed.

He looked at the dirty garbage dump in front of him, smiled helplessly, and prepared to leave.

boom!
Suddenly.

In a dark garbage dump.

Turn on the dazzling lights, illuminating the surrounding environment as if it were daytime.

In the corner, the robots that picked up and decomposed garbage raised their red eyes and aimed at Huo Jixing.

They seemed to be receiving or executing some kind of instructions, and their movements began to become agile.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
More than a dozen copper-colored robots ran like savage giants, trampling on the garbage on the ground and rushing towards the only human in the field.

Behind them, there was a robot whose arms turned into gun barrels, turning their guns and pointing them at Huo Jixing.

boom!boom!boom!boom!
Cannon fire roared and flames shot out.

I saw the scorching bullets fired one after another, following a fixed trajectory, passing over the copper-colored robot in front, and shooting towards Huo Jixing.

【Junkyard Guard】!
【Ballistic Robot】!
In this inconspicuous garbage dump, two different models of robots are shining with the brilliance of technology.

Huo Jixing looked at the army of robots rushing over, looking a little surprised, and then he reacted.

"Our tracks are completely exposed to each other's sight."

Seeing this, he shrugged his shoulders, stretched out his left hand, pointed it at the robot army in front of him, and stroked it gently.

Buzz!

The red-gold flame emerged instantly and turned into a cold sword light, passing by the garbage dump guards at high speed.

I saw these garbage dump guards split in two under the light of the flaming sword, and fell to the ground. The scene was extremely tragic.

Just finished dealing with the junkyard guard in front of me.

The rapid-fire bullets fell like a torrential rain, dense and rapid.

They followed the calculated trajectories, leaving Huo Jixing without any room to dodge.

"But why should I dodge?"

Huo Jixing laughed softly, knowing that these robot armies were just here to test his strength.

[Suzaku·Flame Flurry]!
Huo Jixing's eyes narrowed.

The Nanli fire in front of him, which had not yet been extinguished, seemed to have received his call, rising into the sky and burning brightly.

Fire also has its beauty.

At this moment, the red-gold fire was particularly dazzling in the garbage dump, like the arrival of the blazing sun, dispelling all darkness.

The flame that continues to burn is like the brush in the hand of an artist, turning into a rain of fire all over the sky, facing the incoming bullets.

boom!
As the Nanli Fire ignited, everything in the garbage dump was violently burned.

Whether it was the army of robots or the rubbish piled up in the square, they were quickly reduced to ashes by the fireworks.

The surrounding walls were also affected.

Under the high temperature, it melted and solidified, melted again, and solidified again, making the originally flat wall surface become uneven and covered with traces of scorch and distortion.

Huo Jixing stood on the edge, looking at the completely empty garbage dump, and his spiritual power swept away.

Unfortunately, nothing was found.

Apart from two different models of robots and junk, there wasn't anything valuable hidden.

He withdrew his gaze and walked straight towards the twisted wall.

The passage Urgot chose was right next to him.

Now that the robot army in front of him has been dealt with, Huo Jixing decided to go to Urgot to have a look, maybe there will be new discoveries.

The solid wall made of metal melted like ice in the face of Nanli's fire.

Huo Jixing followed Urgot's cloud and moved forward with firm steps.

Within the thick walls, he saw many intricate metal pipes, with some alchemical liquid remaining inside.

Occasionally he would see the ventilation conversion device, making a low humming sound in the dim environment.

It can be seen that a lot of effort was put into the construction of this experimental base.

Go forward in time.

Urgot walked slowly along the passage he chose with a solemn expression.

The chain gun in his hand was raised early, making a trembling sound, always waiting for the opportunity to pour gunfire.

"here it is?"

With the help of the shining light, Urgot looked around and frowned.

He saw traces of graffiti on the metal walls on both sides.

These graffiti are messy, some seem to be weird symbols, and some look like random lines.

In addition, there are some residual battle marks, such as bullet holes and impact dents, and scratches from swords and axes.

The environment is also slightly dirty, with broken mechanical parts scattered on the ground.

Urgot also saw human skeletons in some corners.

Perhaps for some time, the bones became pale and fragile, silently telling the horror and despair of this place.

Urgot narrowed his eyes and thought to himself: This place is less like a laboratory and more like a mental hospital.

Hearing the movement from ahead, Urgot raised his chain gun and grinned.

"I detect the presence of scum."
