Legends of Runeterra

"Ahem, Caitlin, I can't take it anymore, put me down and run by yourself!"

"Shut up! Hold on to my hand!"

Caitlin was just a little out of breath now, thanks to her body trained by years of hunting.

But for some reason, her good friend Orianna had been practicing ballet since she was a child, and her physical fitness had been pretty good in the past.

After running for ten minutes or so, she began to feel out of breath. If Caitlin hadn't been holding her, she would have fallen into the hands of the pursuers.

"Don't run away, little sister!"

"Don't be afraid! Brother will be very gentle in a while~!"

The eight thugs led by Jason finally caught up with them. Three of them even got ahead of them thanks to their familiarity with the terrain.

The two of them were completely surrounded by them.

The hooligans' dirty looks made Orianna feel uncomfortable all over. She felt desperate, but what was even more sad was that she had implicated her best friend.

"Oh, yeah...I'm sorry, Caitlin...you go quickly, I...I'll help you hold them back!"

Orianna endured the burning sensation in her lungs and the dizziness in her mind and stood in front of Caitlin.

"Oh? You didn't run away, but walked towards me!"

Jason grinned and stretched out his rotten and festering hand to grab Orianna's slender neck.

"Oh!"

There was a gunshot, and half of Jason's palm disappeared.

"Ahhh!"

Jason fell to the ground holding his wrist and screaming. The other thugs hid quickly almost as soon as the gun was fired.

"You bastards, I'm going to kill you!"

Caitlin ignored the other party's threat and quickly picked up the rusty pistol that the other party dropped.

As soon as she got it, Caitlin's face darkened: "Damn it, it's a piece of junk!"

"Hahaha! How does it feel to be cheated?"

Jason tore off a piece of cloth and bandaged the wound, his pale, sweaty face full of mockery.

"You fucking bunch of losers, get out here right now, this bitch just used a 'chastity gun' and it only has one fucking bullet!"

After hearing what Jason said, and seeing that he was still able to jump around in front of the pretty girl, the hooligans who had been hiding surrounded him again.

"Hey, remove her jaw, don't let her bite off her tongue!" Jason laughed viciously, "You stinky cousin, I'm going to make you live a life worse than death!!!"

"It's really over now!"

Caitlin was in despair at this time, and she only regretted that she didn't stuff poison into her teeth.

...

When Li En arrived at the scene, he saw a group of Zaun thugs surrounding two girls. The blue-haired girl had a look of despair on her face, and the blonde girl was lying on the ground behind her, her life or death unknown.

"Ding! A target that can be attacked is found!" x2

The system gave two consecutive prompts, which made Li En, who was about to take action, not hesitate at all.

He took a quick glance out of habit and saw that there were eight people in total. There was not a single extraordinary fluctuation, but each of them was sick.

"A group of garbage!"

He walked like an assassin and came silently behind the outermost thugs.

So, Caitlin, who was originally desperate, saw a feast of killing.

"Click!"

With a crisp sound, the thugs on the periphery fell to the ground, and Li En pulled out the short blade from the opponent's waist.

"Ok?"

The other man was about to turn around when the cold blade pierced his neck.

“Puchi~! Hehe~!”

Blood rushed into his trachea, making him sound like he was drowning.

His strong will to survive made him struggle violently. Li En, who was already seriously injured, failed to hold him down for a while, and a few drops of blood flew into the collar of the green-haired gangster in front of him.

"who!"

"Crack!"

Li En's fist bone hit the opponent's throat. The severe pain and suffocation made the green-haired gangster kneel on the ground.

"Hmm? Fuck him to death!"

Seeing two of his three brothers dead and one seriously injured, Jason's eyes instantly turned red, and he called on the other four to kill the ignorant boy.

"Die!"

A scarred man close to Li En swung a tetanus-enchanted mace in his hand and smashed it hard on Li En's head.

"Shh!"

He dodged sideways, and then the metal handle of the short blade hit his ribs.

"Crack!"

The severe pain made him duck, and the blade penetrated the fourth and fifth vertebrae from his neck.

Scarface only felt a numbness in his neck, and then fell to the ground.

"The people of Zuan are amazing. They fall asleep as soon as they lie down!"

After shaking off the blood on the short blade, Li En looked at the remaining four people with a mocking expression.

After hearing what Li En said, the four people who were originally frightened immediately became angry and their faces turned red.

"Fuck it, come together and chop this bastard to death!"

Jason shouted, and the remaining three brothers raised their machetes and rushed forward, but he, who had many years of experience, quietly retreated.

There was no surprise at all. The three people only let out two screams and lay on the ground like fish on shore. After struggling for a few times, they gradually became motionless.

When Li En pulled out the short blade from the corpse, Jason was about to run out of the alley.

"Bang! Ouch!"

A fist-sized piece of gravel was thrown by Caitlin and hit Jason's head accurately.

Jason fell to the ground without hesitation. He supported himself with his hands and crawled and rolled to continue his escape.

"Shh!"

The short blade cut through the air and pierced his neck neatly. Jason struggled a few times unwillingly, and finally turned his head and looked at Caitlin with resentment.

"cut!"

Caitlin curled her lips in disdain, and suddenly her whole body froze, because at this moment, the figure who easily slaughtered eight villains was walking towards her step by step.

"Very accurate throw, beautiful lady."

The figure lowered his hat, revealing a very handsome face, his black eyes sparkling, and his gentle smile touched Caitlin's heart. In an instant, the male protagonists in the romance novels she had read before all had an accurate appearance.

It seemed that he just changed a blanket into a cloak and wore it on his body without any clothes underneath. Caitlin made an instant judgment with her excellent eyesight.

"I'm sorry, did I scare you?"

"Ah! No, I didn't! I mean, thank you so much for your help!"

Caitlin came back to her senses and felt her cheeks burning. She bowed to Li En and cursed herself for being an idiot.

"You're welcome. Evil deeds must be stopped! My name is Li En Midalda. I don't know your name yet?"

"Midalda?" Caitlin repeated subconsciously, "Ah, my name is Caitlin Gilaman, and the one behind me is my friend Orianna Livik."

Caitlin was about to turn around and pull her shy friend over, but she found her lying on the ground.

"Anna, what's wrong with you? Are you hurt anywhere?"

No matter how Caitlin called, Orianna lay in her arms without any response.

"Her filter mask is damaged, and Miss Orianna seems to be particularly allergic to these alchemical exhaust gases!"

Following Li En's finger, Caitlin saw that a small piece of the mask on Orianna's chin was broken.

"How could this happen? Now the elevator has stopped working and we can't go back, Anna..."

Seeing Orianna's increasingly weak breathing, Caitlin felt her heart tighten and tears instantly slid down her face.
