The accident at the alchemy factory was not man-made, at least not controlled by Renata. Toxic smoke filled the streets of Zaun, causing the city to suffer the worst disaster in decades.

This sudden toxic smoke also gave Renata the long-awaited opportunity.

She could finally take advantage of the situation, win the hearts of the people of Zaan, and make a name for herself.

Everything was going smoothly...

Now you tell me that the alchemical poison gas has disappeared?

Renata suppressed her inner depression and said coldly:

"What's going on, tell me clearly!"

Looking at Renata who seemed to be angry, Kroenke swallowed unconsciously and explained hurriedly:

"I was following your instructions and distributing breathing equipment to my staff. But for some reason, the alchemical poison gas in the sky suddenly disappeared. There was no more pungent poison gas in the air."

"Then I realized that something was wrong, and I went to the source of the poisonous gas in the alchemy factory where the accident occurred to check. As a result, there was no poisonous gas leaking there... It was as if the poisonous gas had disappeared completely!"

Hearing this, Renata frowned instantly.

Alchemical poison gas disappeared out of thin air?

It's simply unheard of!

But Renata was a person who had seen the world after all, and she did not show too much panic after hearing the news. After a brief shock, she quickly calmed down:

"Have you counted it? How many breathing equipment have been sent out?"

"this..."

Kronk hesitated for a moment, but still spoke the truth under Renata's dignified gaze:

"The poison gas disappeared too suddenly. The breathing equipment...less than half of it was sent out."

Renata clenched her fists instantly, her chest heaving up and down, her brain working rapidly as she thought of a countermeasure.

At this point, the plan to use this gratuitous act to win the hearts of the people of Zuan has failed, and we must think of remedial measures...

Renata took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:

"Send someone to inform them immediately that Golask Industries has used alchemical technology to completely purify the poisonous gas in the air, and send doctors to treat those who have been poisoned without receiving breathing equipment."

Then, Renata's expression gradually became gloomy, and her voice became colder:

"Finally... check it for me! I want to know what happened to the disappearance of the poison gas! I don't care whether it was man-made or natural, I have to find out for me!"

"If you can find out, the dance bar near the factory will be handed over to you for management. But if you can't find out clearly...you don't have to continue to be the person in charge of this factory!"

-------

Zhang Xu, who was strolling in Zaun City, didn't know that Taliyah's kindness and his actions inadvertently destroyed Renata's plan.

At this time, they had already reached the center of the city.

Compared to the remote alleys and stinking ditches on the edge of Zaun City, the center of the city has some traces of an industrial and technological city.

"I miss the days when we had maps... At least we wouldn't get lost."

Kassa sighed resentfully. The three of them had been walking aimlessly in the city for a long time. The city of Zaun, with its interweaving of industrial pipelines and various factory alleys, was like a large underground maze, and they had no clue at all.

"Well... just wait until we get to Piltover. The little yellow-haired guy lives there."

"Little yellow hair?"

It took Kassa a while to realize that Zhang Xu was talking about the kind man who had been sending them maps.

"But... don't we have to stay in Zaun for a while? This period of time will be very difficult... By the way, are there really gods in Zaun?"

Thinking of the goddess of wind that Zhang Xu had told him on the way here, Kaisa's eyes showed curiosity again: "If she is the god of Zaun, then why don't people here worship her statue? It seems that people here don't believe in gods at all."

Um...

In a sense, Kai'Sa is right.

The people of Zaun do often forget about me. They only remember me when they encounter some major disasters. After the disaster, they believe in me for a while, and then slowly forget about me until the next disaster comes, and this cycle repeats itself.

The main focus is on the last-minute faith.

I am really a good-tempered person.

If it were a god with a more irritable temper, he would probably have stopped serving us long ago.

"Perhaps, the people of Zaun have gradually forgotten her... I don't know if I can see her this time."

......

"Yochi, this is too dangerous. If this level of alchemical mixture is added, the instrument will definitely explode!"

"Oh don't worry Ike, with you here, we will definitely be safe."

A burst of noise instantly caught the attention of the three people. They looked in the direction where the sound came from and saw several boys of similar age gathered in a circle in a back street not far ahead, tinkering with something secretly.

Zhang Xu's eyes suddenly focused, he just heard a familiar name.

Ike?

With his outstanding eyes, Zhang Xu quickly found a white-haired boy among these boys. He had dark skin, was wearing a punk jacket, and was obviously much taller than his friends around him.

But what caught people's attention the most was the slightly oddly shaped green curler in his hand.

It was a beautiful crystal device - a broken hex crystal.

Zhang Xu frowned, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes.

Through this crystal device, I harnessed the space-time power of this broken crystal and controlled it for a short period of time...

It also controls time.

Although it was only a short period of time, it was amazing enough.

In the game's vast background story, only Zilean and Ekko are linked to time.

Zhang Xu was very curious about the crystal. Jilan’s advice to him was still fresh in his mind: Don’t try to control time, otherwise you will be exiled by time.

Even someone as strong as Kiran was exiled by time, trapped in the long river of time, and could no longer appear to interfere with the outside world.

But Ike was able to do this with just the Hextech crystal in his hand, although the control time was only short and it would also put a certain burden on Ike's own body.

But this does mean mastering some of the power of time!

Is it only this piece of Hextech crystal that contains the power of time and space? Or is it...Ike's own talent?

or...

Hextech crystals, a technology that mostly exists in Piltover and Zaun, contain some secrets that he doesn't know about?
