Zhutian: Countless me, join the chat group

For Swain, this matter is just a game.

Of course, he still cares about Catalina very much.

The main reason is that there is a friendship between the two families.

In addition, Swain had noticed Katarina's potential from the beginning.

In Swain's opinion, this failure was all due to Bai Ye.

If it weren't for Bai Ye, Catalina's assassination would never have failed.

But Swain didn't mean to blame Bai Ye.

The main reason was that in his opinion, even if he blamed Bai Ye for this kind of thing, it seemed to be of no help.

In fact, Noxus is a somewhat realistic place.

Where is the reality?

That is when you are still useful.

Even if you do something to betray Noxus, as long as it's not too serious.

Then for them, it is all forgivable.

It’s just like the situation in Bai Ye now.

Although it seems that this matter also failed because of Bai Ye.

But for them, it is impossible to blame Bai Ye for this incident.

Because of what?!

It’s because this matter has little impact on Noxus.

Even the impact on Swain is minimal, which is why it is like this.

Plus, Swain currently has some requests to Bai Ye.

So at this point, it would naturally be impossible for Swain to offend Bai Ye so easily.

Catalina still needs to follow Bai Ye.

Of course, Katarina could also go out and hide for a while, but in Swain's opinion, there was actually not much need for that.

Maybe it would be better to follow Bai Ye.

Another point is that although Swain didn't say anything, he still thought in his heart that Bai Ye was unreliable.

Could backstab at any time.

But in Swain's opinion, Bai Ye's potential is higher than Katarina's.

He wanted to win over Bai Ye.

"What? Is it difficult?"

Seeing that Bai Ye hadn't spoken for a long time, Swain looked at him with some curiosity.

This matter shouldn't have reached the point where Bai Ye is in a difficult situation, right?

Of course, if Bai Ye refused, Swain would understand.

"No, it's just a little strange that you let her follow me. She doesn't know what I did before. If she knew, she would probably want to kill me directly."

Bai Ye shrugged helplessly. In fact, Bai Ye was just struggling with this issue.

Do you really want Katarina to go to Shurima with you?

Let’s not talk about what the mission is this time in Shurima.

He probably also knew that this matter was related to Cassiopeia.

Katarina and Cassiopeia are sisters.

But the choices of the two are different.

Katarina later chose to follow Swain, while Cassiopeia became a member of the Black Rose.

In Noxus, relationships like sisters and brothers are not actually solid.

Strength is what Noxus believes in.

The two sisters were loyal to not one person, but to their mortal enemy, and then they met.

Although they may not necessarily fight directly.

But Bai Ye felt that Swain might have thought of this and did it on purpose.

Let me take Katarina with me?

Do you have any other little ideas?

So Bai Ye was also hesitating at that time.

"You have to finish what you did yourself. As for that matter, it's up to you."

Swain finally handed the choice to Bai Ye.

It depends on what Bai Ye will choose.

"I understand, but what reason should I find to let her follow me?"

Bai Ye didn't care. Judging from what Swain just said, there was a high probability that Swain would not tell Katarina about this.

Besides, I am not weak at all.

The main thing is that I promised Swain.

There is another thing, that is how can I make Catalina believe me?

As an assassin, she would definitely not stay here if she wasn't injured.

"As long as you agree, then remember our agreement."

"."

Watching the crow leave, Bai Ye couldn't help but complain in his heart.

He said before that he believed in himself very much.

Looking at Swain's behavior now, it seems that he didn't believe it at all before.

Before leaving, remind yourself not to forget the agreement.

Can he forget?

I will definitely not forget it!

Maybe we can get some good stuff in Shurima.

Of course, benefits and risks coexist. Bai Ye is also very clear that he might be able to get good things, but he might also die there.

So you have to plan well before taking action.

The other end.

Swain's crow is also here with Katarina.

Because of the concert today, Sona didn't come here to help with the treatment.

I had already been treated during the concert.

Swain is waiting here for Katarina to come back.

And when Katarina saw Swain's crow, she was also a little surprised.

Have they chased us here?

"Don't be nervous. I'm not here to kill you."

Swain seemed to notice Katarina's emotions and immediately advised her to calm down.

This matter was not originally about me.

But it was Leblanc who did it.

But the current situation is that Catalina has no idea about this matter and still thinks that this is her order.

"I'm sorry, Lord Swain, my mission has failed. I can accept any outcome."

Although he had escaped an assassination attempt before.

But Katarina was also very clear that since Swain had come here in person this time, there was absolutely no possibility for her to escape.

So for Catalina, no matter what the result is, she can accept it.

at least

Swain came personally to take his life.

That's basically it for those who failed in Noxus.

Catalina naturally understood her current situation.

So she stopped struggling.

Facing Swain, Katarina was also very clear that her struggles were useless.

"The failure of the mission is not entirely your fault. The people who were assigned to hunt you down were not arranged by me. You were hunted down by another group of people."

Swain didn't say much, but simply told Katarina all this.

Perhaps even now Catalina still believes that all of this was done by her own hands.

After hearing what Swain said, Katarina couldn't help but show a hint of surprise on her face.

It has nothing to do with Swain?

She originally thought Swain was coming to kill her.

After all, he had experienced an assassination attempt before, so it seemed normal to experience another one.

But what Katarina didn't expect was that Swain was not here to kill her.

And what happened before had nothing to do with Swain?

"Do you think I arranged all those people?"

In fact, without Katarina saying anything, Swain knew that this was most likely what the other party thought.

After all, Catalina had always thought that she was the one who contacted her.

Whether it is issuing tasks or something else.

"Is not it?"

Katrina was a little confused.

After she said this, she realized that she seemed to have said something wrong.

"There are other forces in Noxus. They have always existed, but you just don't know about it. All the things that happened before were actually arranged by them.

I did arrange the assassination in Demacia, but they were also pushing it behind the scenes.

If you want to change Noxus, you must eradicate these cancerous tumors, so I chose to come to see you in person because I hope you can survive and wait until I stabilize the situation in Noxus.

You can come back and help me clean up this cancer!"

Swain shook his head, then spoke slowly.

He briefly explained to Catalina the whole story.

This also shocked Catalina greatly.

I never expected that such an organization existed within Noxus.

She hadn't thought about the fact that Swain had deceived her.

In Katarina's opinion, there was no need for Swain to deceive herself.

So, this matter really has nothing to do with Swain?

"There is no need for you to speculate about this organization at the moment. You are not strong enough to change this, so knowing it will not do you much good."

Swain also noticed Katarina's look.

Naturally, I also know what Catalina is thinking now.

The most likely reason is that he wants to know from me who the organization that is trying to assassinate him is from.

But in Swain's opinion, this matter was completely unnecessary.

After all, even if Catalina knew, it wouldn't change anything.

The black rose cannot be plucked out on this day.

Swain only just learned about this organization.

It turns out that Black Rose has existed for so many years.

Later, as I conducted in-depth investigations, I discovered how terrifying this organization is.

The establishment of the entire Noxus is actually based on the Black Rose.

After realizing this, Swain changed his original intention of clearing out the Black Rose to temporarily cooperating with the other party.

Although in Swain's heart, he would definitely take action against the Black Rose as long as he had time.

Likewise, Swain also knew that the cooperation between him and Black Rose was only temporary.

Once Black Rose has her hands free, she will probably attack me right away.

So the game between the two sides was actually planted from the very beginning.

We just need to wait until someone reveals a flaw in the future.

Then they will be ruthlessly wiped out by the other side.

"I see. So I'm not going back now?"

Katarina also knew from Swain's words that she seemed unable to return to Noxus at this time.

Because of that organization?

"Don't go back for now. After all, the current situation in the country has not yet stabilized. It would be better for you to come back after I stabilize it than to go back now."

Swain nodded and spoke slowly.

At the moment, he doesn't want Catalina to go back anyway.

I have no time to take care of Katarina.

LeBlanc will definitely not stop targeting Katarina in the future.

So going back at this time would be like sending Catalina to her death.

Instead of letting her go back to die, it is better for her to wait outside.

Let her go back when you can protect her.

"Then, Lord Swain, do you have any tasks for me next?"

Catalina originally wanted to ask what she should do next.

But later I felt that this question was a bit stupid.

Swain either came here to find something for himself to do, or to arrange for himself to do an assassination mission.

But her injury has not healed yet.

So there is no way to assassinate at all, and we have to wait for some time.

But after she finished speaking, Swain couldn't help but shook his head.

"You don't need to go on any assassination missions. During this time, you can travel around Shurima with Lux and Bai Ye, and come back later."

Swain didn't need her to do any tasks.

But Swain's words instantly left Katarina speechless.

and many more? !

Let her follow Bai Ye and Lux ​​to complete the mission?

"Yes, it's just as you thought. You just need to find a reason to stay with them."

"."

After hearing Swain's words, Katarina didn't know what to say for a moment.

She was originally planning to leave as soon as her injuries healed.

"I understand Master Swain."

Although deep down Catalina didn't really want to be with Bai Ye and the others.

But Swain's orders were all here, and she would not argue with them.

But she was also wondering why Swain asked her to follow Bai Ye.

"In fact, if you get to know him for a while, you will understand why I arranged it this way."

Seeing the puzzled look on Katarina's face, Swain immediately explained.

As for whether to tell her that Bai Ye is Katarina's contact person.

But after thinking about it, Swain gave up the idea.

The main thing is that it seems to be of no use to tell Katarina at this time.

It would only make the relationship between Katarina and Bai Ye, which had not been established in the first place, be easily shattered by himself.

And for Swain, this matter is more or less related to himself.

If I hadn't ignored these things before.

Then this matter would not turn out like this.

I never thought that Bai Ye was so unreliable.

Before in Ionia, he thought that the lack of trust between the two sides led to Bai Ye’s backstabbing.

Originally, Swain thought this was a low-probability event.

But what I didn’t expect was that this would become Bai Ye’s normal state.

He directly backstabbed himself again in Demacia, which led to Katarina's failure.

Although Katarina’s failure may not be entirely due to Bai Ye.

"I understand."

Katarina nodded, although she didn't know why Swain valued her so much.

But since Swain said so, she might as well give it a try.

But she was actually a little embarrassed when she suddenly said that she wanted to leave with Bai Ye and the others.

Lux had asked her before, but she refused, and now she was leaving with them.
