Chapter 518
Jin Cheng's eyes were almost spitting fire.
The severe winter is coming. For Freljord, the normal season is hard enough, not to mention the coming of winter.
The North is warning the honorable shamans that this year's winter in Freljord will be the most difficult and coldest in ten years.
In fact, as a beast walker, Jin Cheng receives similar warnings every year.
Last year was the coldest winter, the year before last, and the year before last... Anyway, winter is here, and it is the coldest winter.
Not only Jin Cheng, but the entire Northland shaman community can receive this information, and everyone is trying to find ways to help the people of Freljord survive the winter.
And this year's throbbing made Jin Cheng feel unprecedented shock. There is no doubt that an unprecedented winter is about to sweep over.
As for raising another batch of food, it is a fantasy. Piltover and Zaun can't do it at all.
Not to mention that this batch of food itself comes from the output of the magical land of the First Land.
Winter is coming.
"So, you mean that others have robbed us, and I still have to negotiate with them and ask them to release our people!"
Jin Cheng roared angrily, his voice echoing in the meeting room, making everyone feel a chill.
His face was frighteningly gloomy, as if he would explode at any time.
His attitude was obvious.
The importance of this batch of food to Freljord is self-evident, but for Piltover, the failure of this transaction is not a serious matter.
But Jin Cheng's reaction far exceeded everyone's expectations. He seemed to have completely ignored the transaction with Noxus and focused all his attention on the stolen food.
"What can we do? He is Gangplank! The king of the twelve seas, even the Noxian commander Swain who led the invasion of Ionia was defeated by him, and there was nothing he could do about him!" A congressman said anxiously, his voice full of helplessness and anxiety.
Bald Dougek is a diplomat of Piltover and has dealt with many external forces.
At this moment, he stood up and tried to calm everyone's emotions.
"Mr. Mayor, please calm down. Our maritime armed forces can't compete with Planck's fleet at all.
Perhaps your understanding of pirates is still stuck on those small-time gangsters, but I must tell you that Planck is completely different from them..."
Dougek's words made the people present feel depressed. They knew Planck's strength and influence.
This name is a terrifying existence in all coastal areas.
No one dared to provoke his fleet at sea.
King of the Twelve Seas • Ocean Disaster • Planck.
Soon, the congressmen expressed their opinions and suggestions, hoping to find a solution to the problem.
Some people advocated solving the matter through diplomatic means, some believed that they should strengthen their own military strength, and some proposed to seek help from other forces.
In short, everyone felt that they could not win the fight.
Piltover lacks naval power.
For a moment, the meeting hall became very lively.
At this time, someone made a suggestion: use the Hextech Flygate to transport food to Freljord.
However, it is obvious that this will be a losing business.
The man obviously understood Jincheng's intentions and knew where his hometown was, and tried to please Jincheng in this way.
Camille remained silent, but she agreed with the plan, although it might harm the interests of Piltover.
Jincheng stepped forward to stop Camille's proposal, saying that it was not necessary to do so.
They had previously conducted detailed calculations and evaluations.
Although the Hextech Flygate can transport food to Freljord, the number of items transmitted each time is limited, and the amount of food that Jincheng plans to transport to Freljord far exceeds the carrying capacity of the Hextech Flygate.
In addition, using teleportation is very uneconomical because each time the Hextech Flygate is activated, a lot of energy and materials are consumed.
Normally, strategic machines like Hexgate are only used when supplies or important items are urgently needed.
"And, I have made it clear, public affairs are public affairs, and private affairs are private affairs!"
Jin Cheng's voice was as cold as the polar wind, and his eyes revealed firmness and determination.
The information on these Hexgates was not from his hand, but was carefully sorted out by others and handed over to him.
Jin Cheng knew that it was not realistic for him to personally lead the transmission.
Those dozen huge ships, their structures were almost allUsed to carry more cargo.
Each ship is a thousand-ton behemoth, replacing the giant ships of various armed forces. The amount of materials and food it can carry is even more amazing, and each ship reaches thousands of tons.
Even if Jincheng goes all out, he needs to teleport multiple times each time, and he may not be able to complete the task even if he tries his best, because this will exhaust all his strength.
After all, destruction and teleportation are two completely different concepts.
Even the food trade with Freljord is actually handled by Piltover.
This is a thankless deal, but Jincheng's private message keeps him going.
"What do you want to do? Don't you always do whatever you want? Go if you like!" Camille looked at Jincheng, the man's expression was indifferent and terrible, she had never seen him so angry.
However, she laughed softly, as if she didn't care about Jincheng's anger.
Obviously, after a long time of getting along and understanding Jincheng, Camille has gradually adapted to his existence and began to deepen her understanding of him.
From being able to be admired from a distance to being played with up close. .
In general, Camille's impression of Jincheng has changed dramatically.
Once, she thought Jincheng was just a powerful, cool-faced, handsome and humorous man.
But now she finds that he has some abstract characteristics, even a little childish, acting as he pleases, and often doing things that people can't understand.
The moody strong are the most terrifying, and no one likes to be with the king like a tiger.
But Camille thinks Jincheng is easy to get along with, at least he has never really been angry with the people he cares about, on the contrary, some behaviors are not like what a strong person should have.
These characteristics did not make Camille feel disgusted with Jincheng, on the contrary, she thought such Jincheng was interesting.
As expected by Camille, Jincheng's next words and decisions were very similar to her previous guesses.
"What do I want! Of course, to kill one person to warn the rest! Didn't the Ministry of Foreign Affairs repeatedly warn those guys that these things cannot be moved? It seems that those guys' impression of Piltover is still stuck in the past few years."
Jin Cheng said with a fierce smile on his face. His tone was full of anger and dissatisfaction, as if it could burst out at any time.
Jin Cheng didn't care at all that everyone was still in a formal meeting.
Seeing Jin Cheng like this, other members couldn't help but lower their heads and said nothing.
Members who knew Jin Cheng didn't dare to look at him directly, and didn't dare to easily refute.
In this situation, no one wanted to become the target of public criticism and challenge Jin Cheng's authority.
In the slightly quiet meeting room, a voice was clearly audible: "Doesn't he look like a tyrant?"
This sentence was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.
Many people looked at the person who spoke to see who was so brave.
The person who spoke was a young woman with blue hair. It was Caitlin, the daughter of Ms. Cassandra, a councillor of the Gilaman family, who was brought to the meeting.
It is said that this young woman has already made a name for herself in the police system and has shown outstanding ability and potential.
Councillor Gilaman was shocked when he heard this sudden remark.
She never expected that her daughter would say such bold words in such an occasion.
She hurriedly covered Caitlin's mouth and apologized to Jincheng: "Sorry, my daughter is still young... I think Planck should be taught a lesson."
Her heart was full of worries, fearing that she would offend Jincheng because of her daughter's impulse.
The more you know, the more sensible you are. Cassandra obviously knows more.
However, Jincheng did not respond immediately. He slowly turned his head and his eyes fell on Caitlin.
At this moment, Caitlin frowned and looked at her mother with a puzzled look.
Jincheng found that the eyes of this girl, who was not so familiar to him, looked at him with a little hostility.
Camille slapped the table hard, drawing everyone's attention to herself, and then said loudly:
"Catlin is right. I think Piltover needs a strong tyrant now!"
Member Jiraman immediately looked at Camille with some gratitude.
Jin Chengze had already started to act, and he started to go directly to the door of the meeting room.
