lol: Bind Syndra at the start

Jinx's iconic blue hair and Sevica's face are the two most recognizable identity features of Zaun today.

But no matter what channel you use to inquire about the relationship between the two, you will get the answer that they are incompatible.

However, this answer was rejected by the scene in front of Singed. These two people were actually cooperating in secret.

This information gave rise to many fantasies for him, and these fantasies ultimately pointed to one ending... Zaun was about to change.

"So, what's the matter with you two... three of you coming to my place so late?"

Singed gave a strange smile and looked at the three people with his strange-colored eyes.

In the original novel, the conflict between Piltover and Zaun intensified due to the poison gas incident. The unscrupulous confrontation between the two sides eventually led to the destruction of the factory that produced the Shimmer Potion.

Having lost his factory and research funding, Singed had to step out from behind the scenes. He first released the werewolf Vander... letting both the Zaun and Piltover people see his abilities.

After successfully attracting everyone's attention, he did not choose to escape, but stayed in his place waiting to be 'caught'.

Rather than a criminal act, it is more like an open tender.

Singed's goal has always been clear: he needs enough test subjects to test his research results.

Because only after achieving a 100% success rate will he have the courage to use this method on his own daughter.

But the price of such an attempt is putting others in danger.

Singed needs the existence of the glimmer, and even needs the confrontation between Zaun and Piltover as a "protective umbrella" for his cruel experiments.

In peacetime, no one in power would allow him to use the entire city-state as experimental subjects.

Therefore, Ryan specifically asked Vladimir to tell Sevika that if they wanted to achieve true peace, they still needed to eliminate an "unstable factor".

After all, just because the werewolf Vandel doesn't appear now doesn't mean he won't appear when peace is about to be achieved.

The fragile peace between Zaun and Piltover could not withstand repeated shattering.

"We know about you."

Sevika said in a deep voice.

"You know about me? The shimmer? Or the alchemical flame I developed for the Noxians?" Singed laughed. "You want to buy some alchemical flame from me to fight other chem-barons?"

He subtly hinted to Sevika about his cooperation with the Noxians.

He believed that Zaun would not be foolish enough to declare war on Noxus.

But he didn't expect that there was also a Noxian behind Sevika.

Looking at the bald head that was as tall as herself, Sevika remembered Ryan's advice and decided to deal with it peacefully first.

"I know about your daughter."

Chapter 356 A Father

If we put aside the concepts of good and evil, Singed is indeed a capable person.

He has enough ability and courage, clear goals, and is not bound by worldly views... He is willing to do anything as long as it can help him achieve his goals.

If this kind of "talent" were placed in Ryan's previous world, even if he was caught committing a crime, he would eventually be pardoned.

Therefore, he specifically asked Vladimir to give Sevika some advice.

Sin needs to be punished.

But there are many ways to punish a person. From the Ionian point of view, the best way to punish a person is to make him take responsibility and spend the rest of his life making up for his mistakes.

However, there are too many prerequisites for this method to really work. First of all, you need to be like Riven, realize your mistakes and be willing to correct them.

Otherwise, this approach will only produce more and more people like Jhin. After all, when there is no real price to pay for making mistakes, it is a positive encouragement for those who yearn for evil.

Secondly, you also need to have the ability to make up for the mistakes you have made.

Let’s take Jhin as an example again. As a crazy and perverted murderer, he has no ability to give back to Ionia, because even if he kills people... what can he do if he is placed among a group of Noxians?

The Noxians would not be teased by him because of their good nature like the Ionians.

But Singed is different from Jhin...

This down-and-out scientist who went astray proved his ability with his works.

The birth of the Glimmer Potion directly gave Zaun the ability to compete with Piltover, although it seemed to have side effects for the time being.

But the advancement of technology is moving slowly towards the future through repeated improvements. Ryan doesn't think Singed is incapable of improving the Glimmer Potion.

He implicitly put forward this view in his letter.

Sevika, who had managed Zaun as a deputy for many years, immediately understood what Ryan meant after reading it.

What do you gain by killing Singed? Nothing.

The relatives of those who died from shimmer addiction don’t care about the deceased at all, because even the deceased themselves don’t care about their own lives.

As for those poor people persecuted by the Glimmer... they might get psychological comfort by killing Singed, but psychological comfort cannot be eaten in Zaun.

Special times call for special measures. Zaun can currently forgive anyone's sins, as long as your abilities can make up for the damage you have done to Zaun.

"How did you know this?!"

Singed's smile disappeared, replaced by a rage that felt like someone had touched his sore spot.

Only fools would think that others are asking casually. Smart people know that asking this question proves that the other party has been investigating them for a long time.

"It's not difficult to find out."

Sevika did not lie, because many people in Piltover knew about this.

"What on earth do you want to do..." Singed lowered his voice.

He can kill many people without blinking an eye.

But when the other party threatened Orianna, he immediately chose to compromise.

"I just wanted to talk to you."

Sevika looked at Singed deeply.

Ryan told her that she could start with the other party's daughter before negotiating.

Judging from Singed's behavior, his love for his daughter is unquestionable.

"Then come in first."

Singed took a deep breath and pulled open the rusty iron bars with force.

A squeaking sound was heard.

The three of them entered the place where the glimmer was born.

Sevika had a serious expression on her face, her mind focused on the upcoming negotiations.

Jinx's eyes flickered, and she seemed eager to ask something, but the mentally ill person also knew that now was not a good time to ask.

Isa was the most innocent. She just looked at the evil around her with curiosity.

Singed's laboratory is unremarkable, with rusty instruments, equipment piled everywhere, dim and dilapidated desk lamps... Even the experimental conditions of Zaun's best scientists cannot compare with those of Piltover's junior apprentices.

But scientific research, at least in this world, has nothing to do with equipment.

"Chat here?"

Sevika raised her eyebrows. As someone who lived in the alley, she felt that the environment was a bit messy. Those shining potions were placed around haphazardly, giving her the illusion that she was surrounded by a pack of wolves.

Singed hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "I only have one relatively clean place here..."

"Then go there."

Helpless Singed had to open another door.

An exquisite carpet lay flat on the floor of the room, and the spotless curtains were filled with a passionate red.

Antique music boxes, beautiful ballet skirts, and fresh flowers...

All these arrangements make the room look particularly warm.

"This place looks just like Piltover..." Isa said bluntly.

"They were in Piltover." Singed pressed a button.

A soft light suddenly appeared in the center of the room, and an ornate wooden box lay there quietly.

Through the glass covering the wooden box, Sevika and the others saw a human silhouette.

"What do you want to talk about? My daughter is right here."

Singed sat down on the chair next to him. He looked at the wooden box, and a look of nostalgia appeared in his eyes.

He used to sit on the bench in the same position as now, watching his daughter dance her favorite ballet.

but now…

The light in Singed's eyes died.

"Does she know what you've done all these years?"

Sevika is ready to kill him.

But there was more to Singed than she expected.

"I'd rather she knew! As long as she could still stand, as long as she could still speak!

"I've dreamt countless times of her questioning me, but once I woke up... she would lie back down here, cold and icy..."

He took a deep breath and said sternly, "Let's wait until she wakes up. I just need to hear her call me father again, and I'm willing to bear any price!"

"any?"

Isa suddenly said.

Singed looked at the little girl. Under other circumstances, he would have ignored such a child, but this was concerning his daughter...

"Do you have a solution?" He asked the stupidest question in his life.

"I don't have it, but Brother Ryan definitely has it!"

Singed's eyes widened at Isa's confidence.

Is there really a way?

"Who is Ryan!"

He stood up from the bench and asked frantically:

"Tell me who Ryan is! Where is he? I want to know now!"

Singed was countless times more excited in this scene than when he received help from the Wolf Mother in the original book.

"Lion is a very powerful Ionian. He... does have a way."

This point is also mentioned in the letter.

Ionia?

Singed knows there, the most magical place in the world, the source of magic!

Maybe there really is a way?

Singed suppressed his inner excitement and looked at Sevika while breathing heavily.

"What do I have to give?"

"He said he had a way to save your daughter, but first there needed to be peace between Zaun and Piltover."

"?" Singed frowned, he felt that this was unreliable.

But this was the first time in a long time that he had heard anyone say there was a way...

For this, he is willing to take a gamble!

"What do you need me for? You should know my abilities. Let me be frank. If I find out that you've deceived me, I'll make you pay."

"Depending on what? Relying on the Vandel you transformed."

Sevika's sudden response left Singed stunned...

I have always liked the story of Clockwork Genie, so I will give her a happy ending!
