Chapter 124: Jinx, the Leader

The Tin Man ignored Jinx's warning.

He brandished the twisted and deformed mechanical prosthesis that was sparking and leaking electrolyte, and punched Lina madly.

"Get out of my way!"

Jinx nimbly jumped in front of Lina, facing the deadly punch of the Tin Man, and aimed her double-barreled shotgun at the enemy's armored waist and abdomen:

Bang! Bang!

Two merciless shotgun shells blasted the Tin Man backwards.

But the tin man's vitality is as strong as that of a cockroach.

Even though half of the mechanical components on his waist were shattered and the green electrolyte was flowing all over the floor like blood, he still stood up without feeling any pain or tiredness.

"Bang bang... Damn, if only my bang bang gun and fish bones were still here!" Jinx still disliked this shotgun with only a capacity of 2 rounds.

She was changing the bullets in an unfamiliar way, and the Tin Man took advantage of the time when she was changing the bullets and rushed over with a roar.

"Be careful!" This time it was Lina's turn to cover her.

Lina used up the last bit of energy contained in this Hextech armor, deployed the hidden magazine in the arm armor, and fired a miniature rocket at the Tin Man.

With a loud bang, the tin man staggered and fell to the ground again.

"Lina..." Jinx looked at her in tacit understanding, and then took advantage of the opportunity that Lina had won for her...

He took a step forward, stepped hard on the tin man's chest, and thrust the thick muzzle of the double-barreled shotgun directly into his face.

This is the only part of his body that has not been modified and is still flesh and blood.

"Tin can! Let me help you open the lid~"

boom!

The Tin Man's head exploded like a watermelon.

Red blood and green electrolyte splashed onto Jinx's face.

Jinx didn't feel sick.

In the years since Wei and Fandel's "death", she had long since gotten used to the feeling of bathing in blood.

No one would care if a Zaun child had blood on his face. After all, this was the daily routine that the people of Zaun were used to.

However……

"Let me help you." Suddenly, Lina borrowed a handkerchief from her companion and put it on her face without saying a word.

“I…” Jinx dodged subconsciously: “I don’t need it.”

She just wiped it with her hand, and the pale little face turned blood red, which was considered clean.

"It's dirty," Lina insisted.

"I'm used to it." Jinx didn't care.

"From today on, you don't have to get used to this kind of thing anymore," Lina said.

Jinx: “…”

She suddenly calmed down and let Lina gently wipe her cheek with a handkerchief.

"Why are you so nice to me? You don't even know who I am..." Jinx muttered.

"You must be a good kid," Lina said.

"How do you know?" She is not a good girl. She is a crazy girl, Jinx thought.

"Because you cried." Lina's fingers just brushed the corners of Jinx's eyes, gently wiping away the crystal tears that she had not shed before.

"Although I don't know what you've been through, a child who feels so guilty, miserable, and blames himself for what he has done can't be a bad person."

"Not to mention, you just saved me."

Jinx was speechless.

Although winning Lina's trust was the mission goal of her trip.

But she didn't even tell the other party that character story, and the other party trusted her, just because she cried like crazy.

It wasn’t “Jessica” who gained Lena’s trust and care.

But Jinx, the real her.

The mission objective was achieved, but Jinx somehow felt unhappy.

"Well... never mind!"

Jinx tried hard to put aside those messy thoughts and return to her usual crazy girl.

She is a spy for Hilco, the ace agent Miss Jessica.

Since this silly sister believed her so easily, she should just relax and carry out the mission secretly!

Jinx thought so.

Suddenly, the roar of a steam motorcycle engine came faintly from not far away.

This wave of noise sounded even more shocking than when the Tin Man arrived before, and the scene was even bigger.

"What?" Everyone was shocked.

The agile team members immediately climbed to the roof of the small building and took a look from the commanding height:

"Cyborgs! There are more cyborgs surrounding us!"

It turned out that the dozen or so prototype-transformed warriors were just the vanguard troops sent by Takeda Saito.

In order to ensure that Zack, this "horrible monster", can be captured, subsequent armies of transformed warriors are still rushing here in an endless stream.

"This..." The atmosphere, which had just been relaxed for a short while, suddenly fell into despair.

Most of the ammunition was consumed, the divine power was still on CD, and the Hextech armor was just like a new energy vehicle on a long-distance trip, it ran out of power and broke down halfway.

Everyone knew that they could not possibly defeat a larger group of cyborg warriors.

The other side had more people and more means of transportation, so they couldn't escape.

"Sir, Madam, and..." Lina looked at Zack's parents and Jinx:

"Jessica, you guys go first!"

As she spoke, she also entrusted her backpack to Jinx:

"Here is the investigation data collected by our team. Please help me get it."

"Go to the alchemy factory of Gorask Industries in the Gutter District and tell me and the Leader of the Wind. They will protect you."

"Huh?" Jinx was slightly stunned.

When did Renata's Golask Industries and the Leaders Association start cooperating?

It turned out that Hillco was right to send her here, and she gained a huge piece of information as soon as she arrived.

With Lina's life-saving entrustment and indirect endorsement, her identity as "Jessica, a gutter orphan" can naturally gain the trust of the Leaders Association without any obstacles.

Everything went so smoothly.

Kingsman had a great start right after it was launched, which is really gratifying...

"Why can't I be happy at all?"

Jinx was so anxious that he rubbed the soles of his shoes, plowing a ditch in the sand under his feet.

Being an agent is supposed to be an interesting thing, how come it suddenly becomes so boring?

"Let's go, Jessica." Lina was still urging in her ear.

She urged Jinx and Zach's parents to leave quickly.

But she and her nine team members, none of them wanted to leave.

Jinx was silent for a while, and finally...

So annoying!

What a bullshit undercover mission, let’s talk about it later!

"I'm not leaving." Jinx didn't leave.

Not only did she not take the opportunity to escape from this dangerous place, but she also asked Lina: “Sister Lina, aren’t you leaving?”

"Don't worry, we still have a way." Lina answered the question irrelevantly.

"What method?" Jinx asked stubbornly.

"Pray to Janna."

Jinx: “???”

She suspected that Lina was crazy too.

Corina is serious:

"Janna can hear the prayers of the devout believers. She will immediately convey our call for help to her chosen one, our President Levi, and have him fly over from Piltover to help."

This is the Leader’s final trump card, summoning “air fire support”.

"Then how long will it take for your President Levi to fly over?" Jinx seemed to have endless questions .

"Two minutes," Lina said. Actually, it would be longer.

"Then I'll stay and accompany you through these two minutes." Jinx said inexplicably.

"No, we are enough!" Lina raised her eyebrows anxiously.

But Jinx is not stupid.

She doubted that Levi could fly over within 2 minutes.

Even if that President Levi could arrive in time... Jinx didn't think that these leaders with average skills could survive two minutes safely in front of the cyborg warriors.

Even if they were not completely wiped out, they would inevitably suffer heavy casualties.

The leaders themselves are aware of these things.

“Sister Lina…you are scared.”

"I didn't." Lina blushed.

Jinx grabbed her shaking hands and asked, "Why are you trying to be a hero if you're so scared?"

"I'm the leader." Lina shook her hand away: "The leader should be a hero."

"Then I want to be the leader too!"

"You can't become a leader just by saying so! You are not one yet!"

“I am!” Jinx was a little anxious. “I have also read the book of Wind Leader. I can recite the book “Jana Thought” by heart. If you don’t believe me, I will recite it to you!”

“Stop it!” The sound of the motorcycle engine became more and more intense. Seeing that the enemy was about to surround them, Lina finally became anxious: “Let’s go, Jessica! Don’t stay and make trouble!”

"I..." Jinx's pupils shrank, and he suddenly asked absentmindedly: "Sister Li, Sister Lina... do you also think that I am a 'burden'? Because I can't do anything well and only cause trouble for others..."

Lina was silent for a moment.

She knew Jinx was worried.

"No, Jessica, you have never been a burden. I didn't treat you as a burden, I just treated you as someone I wanted to protect."

"I don't want you to stay, just like you don't want to leave me behind—"

"We feel the same way, don't we?"

Jinx: “…”

The knot in her heart that had been pent up for a long time seemed to be gradually being relieved.

"Okay..." Jinx picked up the backpack: "I'll listen to you."

"No." Lina shook her head.

She said apologetically, "It was my fault."

Lina realized that she had just said the wrong thing.

She said Jinx wasn’t a leader.
