Chapter 426 Swain’s Liquidation

On the shoreline near the Piltover Canal in the southern part of Piltover, Mel and Ambessa walked on the marble path one after another.

Mel has not seen her mother for ten years. Yesterday, Anbessa suddenly contacted her by telegram and said she would arrive today, which caught her off guard.

He called Jace and arranged for the Hexgate manned airship tower to be temporarily blocked, and then hurriedly went out to greet him, but this was the way he met...

Mel stared at the broad back in front of him. There was always a suffocating feeling in his chest that could not be vented. "Mother!"

She called to Anbesa, and the woman in front also stopped.

"What exactly do you want to do in Piltover?" she asked in an unfriendly tone, "Why are you still entangled with Du Cacao?"

Anbesa lowered her head and sighed heavily, with sadness in her voice: "Your brother is gone."

Mel was stunned, and it took him a moment to react: "What happened?"

Although she hadn't had much communication with her brother since she was a child, they were siblings whose blood was thicker than water after all. When she first heard the news that he was gone, she still felt uncomfortable.

"He messed with someone he shouldn't have messed with."

Anbesa turned half sideways, her eyes always fixed on the rising and falling waves in front of her.

Mel's brother had always been trained by Ambessa as the next head of the Myrdalda family in Noxus.

Although Ambessa had once intended to train a daughter because her eldest son was not a suitable leader, unfortunately, since the war ten years ago, Mel's compassion for the enemy made her give up this idea.

Even if her son fails to live up to his expectations, she will not entrust Myrdalda to a descendant who can be merciful to the enemy.

This is simply not feasible in Noxus, where the weak prey on the weak and the strong survive.

For Mel, she had never seen such a look on her mother's face.

Combined with the fact that the Du Cacao family, which had never dealt with Medalda very well, sent Caterina to Pi City, she could probably guess what happened to her brother.

"Did brother offend Swain?"

But as soon as the words came out of her mouth, Anbesa's expression changed slightly, she walked up to Mel in three steps and covered her mouth, startling her.

"It's good to know, don't talk nonsense." As he said this, Anbessa carefully looked around.

Because it is located next to a canal in a relatively suburban area, a long way from the Hinanomon Pier in the southern city. This area is sparsely populated, relatively wide, and there are basically no blind spots that block the view.

This is also the main reason why Ambessa chose this place to talk to her daughter.

Seeing that there was no one around, Ambesa breathed a sigh of relief and let go of her hand, "Be careful, the walls have ears. Caterina du Cecao is not the only one coming to Pi City this time."

Mel is not a fool, so he can naturally understand his mother's voiceover.

The Du Cacault family supports Swain, and Caterina comes to spy on her.

But in addition to Katarina, the monitor on the surface, there seems to be someone else waiting in the shadows.

Anbessa clenched her fists tightly, and there was a "click" sound from the bones of her fingers.

Then, she sighed again and looked at Mel with tired eyes, "I was careless at the time, and it resulted in an irreversible mistake."

Mel's eyes flashed with astonishment at her mother's slumped look, as well as her actions and words just now.

"Brother, he didn't comply with the new Trefari Proclamation issued by Noxus in the past two years, and he was liquidated... right?"

Anbessa lowered her head again, hiding the deep pain in her eyes, "I didn't expect you even knew this."

"Times have advanced now, and I know a lot of things." Meier said, "What's more, the Noxus coup is a big event. As a member of the neutral city-state of Piltover, I naturally have to pay more attention."

"You've grown up, Mel." Anbessa said with a happy smile, "I heard that you have a friend named Li Lin. He built the Hex Armor and can fly into the sky?"

Mel was stunned for a moment, and her originally slightly sad expression suddenly changed, and a look of boredom immediately covered her face, "I knew it!"

She said impatiently and took a few steps away from her mother.

"Mel!" Ambessa stopped her, "The situation in Noxus is still unstable. The commander is liquidating all those who resist or intend to resist him. You don't know his ability. Anyone's secrets are in his eyes." There’s nowhere to hide!”

Ambessa walked behind her stopped daughter and continued: "The war is about to begin Mel. Because of your brother's matter, the situation of our lineage of Medalda in Noxus is in danger..."

Before she could finish speaking, Mel interrupted: "You don't have to find any excuses for wanting weapons. It's true that Li Lin is my friend, but his invention only represents himself. The Lenjila Mann family No one has the right to interfere.”

"What about your Jess Tallis?" Anbessa still refused to give up. "He invented the Hex Flying Door. It is not difficult to develop a new Hex weapon."

"okay!"

Mel turned back to glare at her mother, and did something she only dared to think about but never dared to do when she was a child - retort.

"I funded Jace to develop the Hex Flying Gate for the better development of the City of Progress, not to use weapons to make war fortune, like Noxus did!"

She recalled that she had followed other congressmen to watch the actual battle of Geboga.

That one was as big as a small mountain, and it was said that the lava beast that had once participated in the Battle of the Void was powerless to fight back under Gai Boga's fist.

According to Heimerdinger, in that battle, the driver Li Lin did not even exert half of the power of the mechanical giant, especially its most powerful "giga-class cannon."

If Gebogar is used to attack Noxus, it will only take two or three minutes of charging to level the capital's Immortal Fortress.

Mel couldn't imagine what the world would be like if this kind of war machine technology that could trample Demacia and crush Ionia fell into the hands of his mother and Noxus.

Seeing that her daughter did not agree to give her weapons, Anbessa also became tough, "Once the weapons are made, they will definitely come in handy!"

She paused for a moment and said, "Myrdalda is about to end. As a son and daughter of Myrdalda, is it possible for you to watch the decline of your family like this?"

"We can't represent Myrdalda." Mel snorted and retorted, "Although with the Hex Flying Gate, the economic benefits of the Sungate Sea Gate have been much lower, but Jagu Myrdalda is still the wealth of Piltover today. The first person on the list.”

"Don't talk to me about that old guy, he is not the same as us!" Anbessa put her hands on Mel's shoulders and forced her to face her, "I originally thought you had grown up Mel, but you can Unexpectedly, you are still so indecisive."

Her eyes were so sharp that she didn't even notice the sightseeing aerospace boat approaching. "It seems that my trip to Pi City was not the wrong one. I still have to guide you to make the right decision."

"I don't need your advice!" Mel said tit for tat, looking at her mother with a tough attitude.

"Not always."

At this moment, a familiar female voice came from the airship parked nearby, "Hey, Myrdalda, have you finished talking?"

The mother and daughter looked back at the same time, and saw Catalina, who was leaning on the armrest of the airship, dexterously turning a dagger less than the size of a palm with her slender fingers. She raised her eyebrows at them, and the smile on her face made both of them frown. smile.

Next to her, there was a handsome "cream boy" who was dressed luxuriously and looked very handsome. He was holding a tray with wine in his hand, and his face was full of fear and nervousness.

This was Ambesa's male favorite, but now she was temporarily requisitioned by Catalina as a servant doing groceries.

"It's my first time here, and I want to taste the local specialties." She said with a smile, "Is your daughter coming?"

"She doesn't need it."

Anbesa looked at Mel through Catalina's eyes, waited for the airship's escalator to be firmly connected, and strode onto the airship.

"It's enough for you to have me by your side."
