Enemy Intelligence

I'm very curious about Sivir's motives, but with the final battle approaching, I can't possibly go to her about something like this. I should just focus on defense and absolutely not let the Vastaya get close to this place!

We, the "sleepless ones," patrolled the area. After we split up, I suddenly felt someone following us. The suspicious person was definitely not one of our own!

I carefully prepared myself while casting Wind's Breath Insight, but that person kept following me at a distance, seemingly without malice. Could it be that they wanted to find a quiet place to talk to me?

I slowly walked to a field to the east of the camp. It was already November, and according to Prexian's climate, the grain here was nearing harvest.

The heavy ears of grain bent the stalks, announcing a good harvest this year, but it's uncertain how many people will be able to eat the new rice.

"Come out, there's no one else here."

"How did you know I was looking for a secluded spot?" Evelynn appeared, holding a handful of ears of grain in her hand.

"I not only knew someone was looking for me, but I also realized it was you. You'll definitely join in this fun."

"Haha, the plot is about to reach its climax, of course I want to see it all."

"Are you working for Ryze? Or are you using him?"

"Hmm... no, I'm doing what I like, and he's doing what he likes. We... have similar interests! Yes, similar interests!"

"You seem quite happy; even your speaking style has changed. Besides, let me tell you, this is called birds of a feather flock together!"

"Okay, I'm not here to argue with you, I'm here to help you."

"Help me? Are you kidding me?"

"I don't like lying. You haven't thanked me for what happened at the Shadow Isles! Otherwise, given the current situation, plus Mordekaiser, you have absolutely no chance of winning."

Evelynn is right. With the Void invading from both the north and south, if the Shadow Isles were to join the fray, we would have no power to deal with the Vastaya.

However, it's hard to believe she offered to help. She and Ryze worked so hard on this game; could she just give up like that?

Tell me, how are you going to help us?

"I knew you wanted to hear that! You might not say it, but you're really telling the truth!"

You'd better hurry up and tell me before I lose patience.

"Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore. There's no map this time, so you'd better remember what I said..." Evelynn began to explain carefully:

According to her intelligence, Aatrox will launch a full-scale attack in three days. He will personally lead his forces from the north, assisted by Syndra and Riven, forming his strongest team.

Azir attacked from the west, accompanied by Xerath, Sylas, and Zhao Xin, all of whom were equally powerful.

Zed will lead the third team to attack from the east, which is towards the farmland where I am now. Kayn and Alanta will help him then.

In addition to these powerful individuals, each team also has no fewer than twenty Vastaya warriors, and Zed's team also has many Shadow Cult members.

In addition, once the great battle begins, four assassins will appear on various battlefields at any time, and may also appear in our camp. They are Dukao, Jhin, Jinx, and Iloza.

I've heard of Iloza; Rebeca mentioned her to me the day before yesterday when she was telling me about her past.

He is the fourth Ascended from Ancient Shurima, neither male nor female, with a human head and a snake's body. He must be extremely powerful. I'll have to ask Rebeca about him later.

After saying this, Evelynn stopped, looking at me with a smile, as if waiting for my thanks. Unfortunately, she was wrong:

"Are you done talking?"

"Yeah, aren't you going to thank me?"

"It seems you forgot two people."

"No, even if there were, they would be unknown Vastaya, which wouldn't have any impact."

"I wasn't talking about the Vastaya, I was referring to you and Ryze. And what about that guy named Gu Yang? Will he help you?"

"If Gu Yang helps Aatrox, you're in trouble. He doesn't have that plan right now, but of course, I can't guarantee it. As for Ryze and me, we'll see when the time comes, haha..."

"I think you're planning to wait until the Light Organization and the Vastaya are both weakened before manipulating the Void to destroy Runeterra, aren't you?"

"How could you think that? Are we that bad? Haha... Oh no, I have to go, the troublesome guy is coming!"

Evelynn laughed halfway through and then ran away, just in time to catch up with Twisted Fate, who arrived breathless.

"Have you seen Evelynn, Yasuo? I've been searching, and I just spotted her scent around here!"

"Uh... no, shouldn't you give up?"

"No way! I'm determined to catch up with her!"

After saying that, Twisted Fate left, just like the last time in Bill. This guy is really persistent.

Evelynn's message this time was as reliable as ever, and her stance was clear: she and Ryze weren't truly helping the Vastaya; they were just using them.

It's unclear what their plan is, but although she refuses to admit it's about guiding the void to destroy the world, the outcome could easily lead to such a situation.

That being said, it's no longer important, because the Vastaya will definitely launch an attack, and we must fight back.

Aatrox was not a fool; he had his own considerations. In this light, we are all just pawns, and the one who truly wields the pieces may not have appeared yet.

When I returned, an autumn wind picked up and a chill was in the air. By late at night Rebeca and the others had all returned, and I asked her about Iloza.

Iloza was an extremely cruel person. Before ascending, she worked in interrogation and intelligence. Because of her outstanding contributions, she was granted the qualification to ascend and successfully became the fourth Ascended.

After ascending to heaven, he followed Aatrox in his campaigns, and later led his own army to pacify a large area of southern Shurima, achieving merits no less than Rebeca's.

He considered himself a woman, but his physical characteristics were those of a man. Coupled with his twisted personality and cruel methods, he was extremely disliked.

Not only were his enemies afraid of him, but even his own soldiers trembled with fear, charging bravely into battle for fear of being "rewarded" by him.

Iloza didn't care about his reputation; in his words, he was willing to bear any infamy if it meant Shurima's territory.

His Ascended Weapon is quite unique; in layman's terms, it's his eyes, which can petrify enemies and turn them into puppets for his use.

In addition, his venomous fangs are very powerful; they not only paralyze the nerves but also cause excruciating pain, making people wish they were dead. In short, falling into his hands is a terrible thing.

However, Rebeca accepted this troublesome enemy. "He's a very troublesome person. If you run into him, leave him to me. It'll be a good opportunity to settle old scores!"

"He's an assassin, elusive and unpredictable. Get to know Ivern better, and have him provide you with intelligence later."
