Chapter 263 The Hooked Urgot
With Spender's lessons learned, the Alchemy Baron meeting went very smoothly.
All alchemical barons promised to give up all their power related to Zaun politics and "willingly" signed contracts that complied with Piltover law.
Of course, Li Lin is a kind person and doesn't like to kill everyone.
He agreed that the alchemy barons should keep their own industries so that they would lose control of various urban areas in Zaun and not let them live on the streets.
It's just that Li Lin couldn't let this group of people take control of a strategic resource like oil, so he proposed to pay a sum of money to acquire the mine where Adrian discovered the oil and the refinery he was building.
Adrian is a visionary who knows the importance of oil, so he is very dissatisfied with Li Lin's proposal, and some are even angry.
However, when he recalled the tragic situation of Spender just now, he still held back the words that rushed to his throat and signed a transfer contract with Li Lin at the market price.
As for the business empire that had lost Spender as its boss, Hilko originally wanted to secretly take it into his own hands and embezzle it for himself.
But Li Lin saw his idea, and directly proposed at the meeting to take this part of the industry into his own name on the grounds of preventing the Zaun people from losing their jobs, and received Lanner's support.
Hilko really suffered a dumb loss.
Since Li Lin had already proposed, he had no choice but to give up this part of the benefits to him, comforting himself that the territory of other alchemy barons was not bad.
But he didn't expect that Li Lin would not give up all these benefits to him...
During the rest of the meeting, Hilko asked someone to clean up Spender's body, and then led everyone to another clean conference room to discuss matters regarding Gorask Industries.
After questioning by Li Lin and Silko, it was found that except for Middenstock, none of the alchemy barons had colluded with her, and they did not know what her plan was.
Fearing that Hilko would do to him the same way he did to Bonnie, Middenstock begged for mercy and swore that he would hand over some of his skills to Gorask, completely under her coercion and as a last resort.
After careful consideration, Hilko chose to "forgive" him and warned him not to make such a principled mistake again in the future.
Middenstock was filled with gratitude and handed over two well-run and highly profitable factories under his name to Hilco as a thank you.
Li Linming didn't show it on the surface, but deep down he felt that Middenstock was too stupid and didn't understand Hilko at all.
He didn't even know how this idiot climbed to his current position as Alchemist Baron, and he thought he could bribe Hilko with the ownership of two factories.
Obviously after the previous incident with Bonnie, Middenstock should know that Hilko has zero tolerance for betrayal.
If he wants to survive, he must have someone escort him overnight to escape from Zaun and stay away from Silko's territory.
Otherwise, with Silko's temperament, he will go to the Watcher's Sea to keep Bonnie company until tomorrow at the latest, and go on a trip of "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" with the manta rays and sea monsters.
The meeting ended quickly, and the manpower sent by Hilko to seize the store under Lenata's name was already in place, preparing to take complete control of all her industries together with Li Lin's mechanical engineers on standby outside Gorask Industrial.
The former alchemy barons forced a smile on their faces, said hello to Li Lin and Silko, and left with their men.
Just as Li Lin was about to take charge of the mechanical engineers' operation to seize Gorask Industry to avoid any accidents, Voss, who had been waiting outside the door, stopped him.
"Lord Li Lin..." Voss seemed very hesitant, "Excuse me, are you free?"
"What's the matter? Don't waste my time."
Li Lin frowned slightly. He had no good impression of this cruel woman who loved to torture people.
The mine she was in charge of called "Sinking Hook" was a prison mine, and the living environment was much worse than the still water prison on the small island above the sea in Pi City.
Not only some of the most heinous people in the upper city who cannot be punished by ordinary imprisonment will be "exiled" here, but some alchemy barons also like to send people who offend them here.
Once you enter Shengou, it is equivalent to saying goodbye to freedom and the future.
No one can endure it until they are released from prison and walk out of here alive.
In Sinkyu, death comes in many forms, and being tortured to death by Voss can only be considered a minor one.
The greater threat comes from other criminals who are imprisoned together...
"Well……"
Seeing Voss hesitantly spitting out ink, Li Lin turned around and left, not wanting to waste time with her.
"Wait, wait!"
"I don't have time to waste with you." Li Lin's tone was cold and his attitude was not very friendly.
Voss took a deep breath and said, "I would like to ask for your help..."
She paused for two seconds, noticed that Li Lin's face was getting more and more impatient, and quickly added: "This matter... has something to do with Noxus!"
"Huh?" Li Lin's interest was piqued by Voss, "Is he a war mason?"
"No, it's not them." There was a hint of panic on Vos's face, and he stuttered when he spoke, "It's a Noxian executioner... er, a former executioner."
The executioner?
When he mentioned this, a name suddenly appeared in Li Lin's mind - Dreadnaught Urgot.
Urgot was the Noxian executioner before Draven, the Honored Executioner. He was quite majestic in the army and ensured the military discipline of countless chapters.
No one wants to face this guy who has never been on the battlefield, but can overwhelm a veteran who has been on the battlefield just by relying on his momentum.
Unfortunately, even if he is so powerful, in the eyes of the powerful, he is nothing more than a chess piece that can be discarded at will.
As a loyal supporter of the former Noxian Emperor Braun Darkwill, Urgot was sent to Zaun by Swain in Darkwill's name to disrupt a plot against the Noxian ruler. conspiracy.
But what he didn't expect was that this mission was simply a trap, a conspiracy by Sway to divide the power of Darkwill's men for the sake of the coup.
Upon arriving in Zaun, Urgot heard about Swain's seizure of Noxus.
But when he realized it at this time, he was already surrounded by the men of the alchemy barons hired by Swain.
He was thrown into the "Shenhook" prison mine in the ditch, and could only wait for death in an extremely harsh environment.
When Vos mentioned it, Li Lin remembered that there was another threat from Zaan: Urgot.
This guy is the one who will kill the alchemist barons in the future like pigs and dogs. He has also replaced his legs with six giant crab-like alchemical mechanical legs that can spray shotguns and alchemical flames. His right arm has also been replaced by an alchemical technology machine gun.
Later, he also used alchemical explosives to detonate trenches, killing thousands of people and plunging Zaun's bottom city into complete chaos.
If Urgot had not injured the representative of the Piltover Chamber of Commerce family and was imprisoned in a private prison with iron walls by law enforcement officers, he would have brought chaos and fear to the entire Zaun.
At that time, not only the eternal nightmare Nocturne will be attracted, but the ancient fear of the leader of the ten demons may also follow.
Li Lin couldn't leave such a dangerous person alone.
He rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, then sneered: "You did something wrong and you want me to wipe your ass?"
Voss smiled awkwardly and did not dare to speak.
After all, it was her own indulgence and torture of the prisoners in Shengou Prison that caused today's bitter consequences.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Eh?! You agreed?" Voss was stunned for a moment, with joy on his face.
"Don't talk nonsense to me. Focus on the important points."
"Okay, okay! The Noxian executioner's name is Urgot..."
In the next two minutes or so, Voss quickly informed Li Lin of what happened in the Shengou Prison Mine.
Almost as he remembered, Urgot was tortured by other prisoners in Shengou, and gradually changed part of his ideas——
Power is not the truth that governs all things, fear is.
More than three months ago, Urgot was brought to Voss and tortured with a sharp blade.
But this little pain was nothing to him who was already riddled with wounds.
Urgot broke free, allowing Vos to breathe and roll back to the ground with her men, taking full control of the Hook.
Later, he crushed all the spies that Voss sent to Shengou to gather information into minced meat.
According to the intermittent reports of the last and only survivor who lost his right arm and became a little crazy due to fright, Urgot had transformed himself into a steel monster.
"You did a good job."
Li Lin gave Voss a cold look, turned around and left.
She hurriedly chased after her, panicking and stammering: "Li, Mr. Li Lin..."
"No need to follow me anymore, I will help you solve the problem, just this once." Li Lin said without looking back.
The panic in Voss's heart eased a little, "Then how can I repay you?!"
At this time, Li Lin had already boarded the elevator, turned around and stared at Voss, and said only one word:
"oil."
Thanks to Kiss and Canhua for the reward
