The Glory of Noxus

Deep in Zuan.

Singed's alchemical laboratory.

Huo Jixing pushed open the heavy iron door with traces of repairs, walked along the flat metal corridor, and entered the core laboratory.

As soon as he entered the laboratory, a low howling sound reached Huo Jixing's ears.

Looking towards the source of the sound, he saw Warwick, the Raging Beast of Zaun, being imprisoned in a glass cage made of ribbed steel.

The wild posture of the past is gone. Each of its strong limbs is connected to a transparent alchemy pipe, and green blood flows slowly.

The intricate fluid storage tank on the back has been removed, and the body covered in dark green hair seems to have been drained of all its strength, looking extremely weak.

Huo Jixing also noticed that most of Warwick's forelimbs that he had chopped off had regenerated, and sharp claws were also pointed.

Even though it was so miserable, the wildness and fierceness in Warwick's eyes did not diminish at all, on the contrary, they became more intense.

Smelling Huo Jixing's breath, Warwick immediately turned his head, his eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he roared in a low voice, trying to break free from the constraints of the alchemy pipeline.

But obviously, he is now a little powerless and can only send out incompetent rage.

Huo Jixing ignored Warwick, crossed the cage, walked to the alchemy workbench, and saw Singed busy.

"Is this the end?"

Hearing the footsteps, Xingjid turned around and looked over, looking slightly surprised when he saw it was Huo Jixing.

He was wearing an old white robe, holding a glass vessel in his hand, and was concentrating on preparing potions.

On the alchemy workbench in front of him, glass test tubes were hung at different heights. The liquid inside was colorful and bubbles would appear from time to time.

At the same time, these colorful liquids emit different smells, some are pungent, some are fragrant, and some are unpleasant when mixed together.

"Not the end, but the beginning."

Huo Jixing recalled the battle that had just ended and shook his head slightly.

Then he looked at the scene in the laboratory and had to admire Singed in his heart.

As soon as the transaction was completed, he returned to his laboratory and devoted himself to alchemical research.

Huo Jixing could only praise Xingid in one sentence.

Don't be afraid that others are more talented than you, but be afraid that people who are more talented than you will work harder than you.

Singed, the well-known alchemist in Zaun and Piltover, still maintains his endless love for alchemy.

pat!pat!

Two metal parts of different colors landed on the alchemy workbench, attracting Singed's attention.

"Unexpected bonus, please help me find out what kind of craftsmanship and material it is." Huo Jixing asked aloud.

Seeing the solemn look on Huo Jixing's face, Xingjid put down the glassware in his hand.

Then his eyes fell on the two metal parts on the alchemy workbench.

Singed frowned slightly, as if he was surprised by these two metal parts.

One is orange and the other is purple and looks like a precision part of the wrist.

From the smooth marks left on the edge, it can be confirmed that it was cut off directly with a sharp weapon.

Moreover, he also saw traces of self-destruction inside the parts.

"Self-destruct program?"

Xingjid nodded slowly as he thought of Huo Jixing's terrifying strength.

Then, he stretched out his hand, gently picked up the purple metal part, and observed it carefully.

Originally, Singed had a cold expression.

But after observing, his pupils instantly contracted and his movements became extremely cautious.

Although no emotional changes can be seen from the necrotic facial nerves.

But Huo Jixing could still sense Xingid's inner shock.

"Where did you get this?"

Singed carefully observed the parts in his hand, with a hint of surprise in his voice.

He turned the direction of the purple metal parts and observed the details from different angles.

Its surface is very soft and smooth, and after fine polishing and processing, it feels like human skin.

"This craftsmanship and this material."

Xingjid didn't wait for Huo Jixing's answer and continued to mutter to himself, with strong interest in his eyes.

"I saw traces of Hex technology and alchemy technology. No, is this blood instead of lubricant?"

In the broken wrist parts, he saw a mercury-like liquid, glazed blood vessels and slender metal veins.

Singed looked enthusiastic and couldn't wait to use the alchemy workbench to further inspect and analyze the two metal parts.

Huo Jixing looked at Xingid quietly, with some expectation in his heart.

As an alchemist, Singed has a very in-depth study and understanding of metals and alchemy.

Maybe he can parse some information from these two metal parts.

As time goes by.

Xingid, who was busy at the alchemy workbench, gradually entered a state of excitement.

He used his own alchemical tools to conduct comprehensive analysis and research on the two metal parts.

The more in-depth the research went on, the more excited Singed became.

Whether it was the internal structure or the subtle fluctuations in ability observed with special instruments, it gave him a refreshing feeling.

"Incredible!"

"Incredible!"

Xingjid raised his head, looked at Huo Jixing, and said two incredible words in a row, with uncontrollable excitement and surprise in his tone.

"The craftsmanship and materials of these two metal parts are definitely not something that Zaun's current technology can produce."

"They seem to be a fusion of Hex technology and alchemy technology. I also saw the ingredients of the shimmering potion."

"And they seem to have some unknown technologies and secrets."

Singed's eyes flickered, realizing that there was definitely a secret hidden behind the two metal parts in front of him.

And this secret could have a huge impact on his alchemical research.

Not only alchemy, but Hextech that no one dares to mention.

"After the research just now, I have gained something here."

“On the liquid remaining inside these metal parts, I decomposed human cells and genes.”

Xingid picked up a glass vessel and shook it gently.

I saw a silver substance sinking into the almost transparent liquid.

It mixes with the liquid and forms a denser bead that clings to the bottom.

"Human cells and genes?"

Huo Jixing's heart moved when he thought of the two Source Project soldiers who had just self-destructed.

Source Plan Judgment and Source Plan Purification correspond to Wei and Vayne.

"Wait, Vayne?"

Huo Jixing frowned and quickly recalled the Piltover caravan he had encountered in the Kingdom of Demacia.

"It can't be such a coincidence, right?"

"Fenglian Town, the demon, the injured Vayne, and the Piltover caravan that left in a hurry after the battle."

"The forces behind the Eye of Zaun are secretly collecting the flesh and blood cells of all heroes on Valoran?"

Huo Jixing was suddenly startled by the idea that came to his mind and felt inexplicably shocked.
