Chapter 216: Qing Gangying's Visit
There has never been such a precedent in Piltover.
Even during the most difficult times, they did not attack someone before he showed any hostility.
“It’s not elegant.”
Camille, standing on the attic leaning on the hook, sighed helplessly.
Elegance is a person's appearance. Only when your behavior is elegant and decent enough can people respect you.
A person can be wild and not have much knowledge, but elegance and decency are a must.
You can be poor, but you cannot live without this spirit.
Unfortunately, her brother once again showed his vulgar side and brought shame to their family.
But he is the head of the family, and his orders are necessary.
But her brother was blinded by greed. If it were her...
She would reward Li Ke, publicize the Ionian who defected to Piltover, attract more people to Piltover, and even take advantage of the situation to form a fleet composed of Li Ke, Ionia and other outsiders.
This fleet will serve as a springboard for outsiders with maritime military capabilities to enter Piltover, and will also be able to reduce the presence of pirates accordingly.
And even if something goes wrong, they can be blamed, and these people are also suitable for doing things that are unknown to others.
However, her brother was blinded by greed because of a divine weapon.
Piltover is a port city, so it is normal to be afraid of being frozen, but is it really necessary?
That's the bottom line.
But unfortunately, she was not the head of the family, just a spy.
She landed lightly on the front street in the middle of the night. Looking at the door lintel of the villa, she couldn't help but praise Lemuel's taste. Although this guy's academic achievements were average, his taste was indeed good.
Knocking gently on the door, she already knew that the person inside had woken up, and she had no intention of coming without telling anyone.
"Hello, I am Camille from the Philos family. I am very sorry for visiting you so late at night, but I do have something important that I need your help with."
Her voice was very polite. Even though Li Ke was not a noble in Piltover and didn't know her family, she still gave the name of Ferros to show her politeness.
As she expected, after she knocked on the door, a man opened it, and the sword she wanted was tied to a traditional Ionian straight sword with a simple hemp rope.
"Who are you……"
Li Ke looked at the lady in front of him in astonishment and was attracted by her long legs at first sight.
It was not because of anything else, but because the lady's long legs were so prominent - two sharp blades, like a pair of scissors when the other party bent down to salute her.
“…Blue Steel Shadow?”
Li Ke directly called out the other party's hero's name. Camille was obviously stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that her nickname when she was young would be called out by an Ionian. She thought that even if Li Ke knew her, he would only know her as the Gray Lady.
This nickname was the one she got when she was just transformed into a robot. At that time, she cleared out all the unstable factors in Piltover like a gust of wind and lightning, so she was called Yasuo.
But later, when Piltover stabilized, her methods became milder, and she naturally became the Gray Lady.
"Yes, I am the Blue Steel Shadow."
Without mentioning the title, Camille bowed to Li Ke again. Until Li Ke signaled her to come in, she showed no intention of coming in.
After she came in, the sharp blade under her feet easily pierced through the wooden floor of Li Ke's house.
"I'm sorry, someone will compensate and redecorate the place later."
She expressed her apologies, but the first thing she saw was the burnt-black kitchen, which made the corners of her mouth twitch slightly. She didn't understand what Li Ke had done to make the kitchen look like this.
"It was an accident, but what are you doing here?"
Li Ke would not look down on the woman in front of him. She was older than him in his two lifetimes combined, and she was the one who helped her gain a foothold when Piltover was in turmoil. The saying "old and wise" was applied to her.
"First of all, I'm here to thank you for killing Gangplank. Your feat is enough to be written into epic. But do you have a sword that can freeze the sea? This is really dangerous for our city."
When Qing Gangying spoke, she felt ashamed, but unfortunately, she no longer had such feelings.
Her cold heart did not allow her to have such a thing as shame.
But she still felt a little uncomfortable.
Li Ke was also surprised.
"When you said the first half of that sentence, I thought you came with Gangplank's bounty and were planning to offer me a position in the navy or something. I had already thought about how to refuse it."
He looked at Qing Gangying with a strange look. Logically speaking, the other party should not do such a stupid thing, but why did a man who should be experienced and wise make such a judgment?
"I'm sorry, Gangplank's bounty will be delivered tomorrow morning, but because the port is too important to us, please cooperate."
Qing Gangying bowed again, but she knew that she would probably have to pay for the renovation of the house.
"Only the right wielder of that sword can freeze the sea."
Li Ke sighed and faced Qing Gangying.
To be honest, he quite likes the other person , but unfortunately, reality is so funny.
"But aren't you the right user?"
The Yasuo raised his head and looked at Li Ke, hoping to see a sign of retreat in his eyes, just like the other Ionians.
But she only saw disappointment in Li Ke's eyes.
For some reason, an idea came into her mind.
He is not Ionian.
Li Ke was actually a little confused, but since they had come to him, it was impossible for him not to take action.
"So, do we follow the procedure, or do we just start fighting? I suggest that we fight in the open space next to the garden. That way, the beautiful place won't be ruined."
He drew out his wooden sword. He did not sense any murderous intent from Camille, so he did not plan to use his ice and fire swords.
The fire sword heats up, the ice sword freezes, and the steel body of the Blue Steel Shadow is quite fragile in front of him. It can be said that his two weapons completely restrain the Blue Steel Shadow.
If he’s not careful, he’ll completely destroy the Blue Steel Shadow.
"please."
Qing Gangying made a gesture of invitation, and Li Ke picked up his sword case and walked over with his back to Qing Gangying.
Both of them were decent people, so neither of them made a sneak attack.
Under the moonlight, the two men stood face to face, like cowboys fighting. No, they stood face to face like gentlemen, and then the next moment...
Li Ke took out an M16 with grenades hanging on it.
