[Accept / Reject]
[Requires payment of five hundred Wealth Points to accept, three chances to make mistakes.]
Upon seeing this mission, Duke immediately jumped up from his chair. Aside from the 20% fusion rate, just the Edith Smart Glasses alone were enough to justify spending those five hundred Wealth Points.
What did the Edith Glasses represent?
Edith is an acronym for the phrase, "Even dead, I'm the hero."
It means, even though I'm dead, I'm still a hero!
It represented Iron Man's legacy and approval, not to mention the insanely powerful functions of the Edith Smart Glasses!
"Accept!"
Duke, who clicked accept directly, spoke in his mind. The red exclamation Mark instantly turned blue, and a countdown appeared. Duke also began to ponder in his mind, what kind of creation would be recognized by Iron Man?
Duke, who subsequently used his remaining six hundred Wealth Points for a lottery draw, waited for the results while secretly planning what he wanted to do.
The Hextech Gem was already in hand. Combined with the newly unlocked energy system and the first-level Mark series battle armor, he could further refine his Clockwork Armor.
As for forging a Mark I?
The unlocked armor was the blueprint for the iron can Tony Stark hammered out in the cave. To get others, he would have to keep spending money!
What a slow trick!
The armor, which integrated two major sectors along with the mutual fusion of Clockwork Technology and Hextech energy, might far exceed Duke's imagination.
"I'll try the Clockwork Armor first. If that doesn't work, I'll find another way. Anyway, I have three chances to make mistakes."
Having made up his mind, Duke looked at his lottery results. Six lines of text floated past his eyes one by one.
[You obtained: Joker's Toy Box]
[You obtained: Robot Vali's Treasured Plastic Spoon]
[You obtained: Exoskeleton Design Blueprint]
[You obtained: Mobile Pegasus Design Blueprint]
[You obtained: Hulk's Shorts]
[You obtained: Decepticon Badge]
Duke glanced at the six items that appeared in his inventory. He first took out the Exoskeleton Design Blueprint, and after a look, Duke slowly tapped the table, a strange light flickering in his eyes.
"Perhaps I can also pursue Iron Man's old profession that he no longer does!"
"As for this design blueprint..." Looking at the [Mobile Pegasus Design Blueprint], Duke curled his lips, "A motorcycle that can transform into a robot?
There's still room for improvement, and the energy system is too crappy. It's just so-so!"
"Forget it, I won't think about these for now. First, I'll improve the Exoskeleton and integrate Clockwork Technology, and then..." Duke's eyes sparkled, "I'll make a huge fortune!"
...
Zaun, Black Alley.
Fugen Tavern.
Many members of Black Alley gathered here, their eyes filled with malice and fierce glints. Vander leaned against the bar, holding a pipe, with Benso standing beside him. The pool table was covered with gear.
"Everyone's here, right?"
Vander put down his pipe and placed it on the bar, scanning the crowd. Everyone who had received his favor over the years was here, each looking at him expectantly.
As for Vi, Powder, Mylo, and Claggor, they were not here; they were locked in the Underground Room.
"Everyone's here, except for Sevika who left. Everyone's here!"
Benso spoke up. Vander nodded, left the bar, and strolled through the crowd.
"Everyone here survived that turmoil, and some were even eyewitnesses. I don't think I need to mention it again!"
"I gathered everyone today because we're going to attack a place!"
"Everyone is very familiar with the Master of that place!"
Vander paused, scanning the crowd, "It's Silco!"
"What?"
"Silco is still alive?"
"Wasn't he killed by Vander back then?"
"It's a troubled time. People from Piltover just caused trouble, and now Silco has risen from the ashes!"
.....
Amidst the whispers, Vander raised his hand and pressed it down.
"Alright, listen to me!"
"Today I received a tip. I don't want to reveal the specific informant, but the other party is from that family!"
Vander glanced at his steel gauntlet and whispered, "The people from the family that initiated that purge back then!"
"Are we going to face another purge?"
"Please don't cause trouble, enough people died back then!"
"It must be that the previous explosion displeased them, and that's why they plan to purge again!"
"My brother was killed by those people. In the thick fog, his head was cut off with a single blade. I don't want to experience another purge!"
"Those people are maniacs, cold-blooded butchers!"
"Alright, enough, stop talking!" Vander again suppressed the crowd's discussions. "I know everyone's concerns and Terrify, but this time, what I want to tell you is...."
"We still have a chance, as long as we nip the bud!"
Vander shouted loudly, "People from Piltover will at most arrest us, shut down our shops, throw us into Stillwater Prison, beat us, and humiliate us!"
"Although it's bad, we're still alive!"
"But those executioners don't care if you have a reason. As long as you threaten the operation of Piltover, you will be eliminated!"
"They will completely disappear from the Twin Cities, and they don't care if you're from above or below!"
"None of us want another purge, so tonight we must bravely take up arms and nip the purge in the bud!"
Vander took off his gauntlet and held it high, "For Zaun, and for freedom!"
"For Zaun!!!"
"For freedom!!!!"
Fugen Tavern instantly erupted into chaos. Duke never imagined that the intelligence he fabricated, claiming it came from the Ferros Family, would have such an impact, all because he considered his debts to Vi and Powder.
Sometimes, a butterfly's gentle flap of its wings can stir up a hurricane!
