Chapter 438: Return to Presidium
Zhang Chao walked in the familiar streets, and in just three days, they had already crossed half of Ionia from Nanzheng to Presidian, which was located in the middle of Ionia, and this speed was undoubtedly extremely fast. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Runeterra, as a planet similar to Earth, or even larger, Ionia is only a small island in the northeast from the map, but it is actually equivalent to the entire Australia on Earth.
Zhang Chao looked at the soldiers coming and going, the armor on their bodies was familiar to him, and even in the near future, he would fight side by side with them wearing the same style of armor.
"Zhang Chao, what are you looking at? Ever since you arrived in Presidium, you've been a little absent-minded. Nanyin said curiously.
Zhang Chao frowned, did not hide it, but said in a deep voice: "I have been here before, and I have lived for a few days, I am not familiar with the north of the city, but I can take you to visit the south of the city." β
Yaqi said: "Zhang Chao, you have also been to Ionia, why have you never heard of it?"
Rui Wen also cast a curious look, but then realized that she was a little gossip like this, so she quickly pretended to be careless again.
"Zhang Chao, if you really come here, it will be of great help to us to complete our mission. β
Zhang Chao smiled: "Of course, I learned this skill from Ionia, so I said that I wanted to meet the old man from this reason." β
Nanyin's face changed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Zhang Chao, that ...... Isn't this a task a little difficult for you?"
Rui Wen also frowned and said: "If it is difficult, the three of us can do it by ourselves, after all, a few days ago, through the magic communication, General Kekao has sent a message, the children of the stars are in a state of weakness, and it is enough for the three of us." β
Zhang Chao shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Forget it, I'll go with you, that son of the stars is a figure who is about to become a god, even if she is in a weak state, I'm afraid she is a very difficult opponent to deal with." β
"And...... I told Du Kecao that since I decided to do the last thing for him, it had to be done, and that you must not treat everything you say as a fart in this life, otherwise what's the difference between your mouth and a chrysanthemum?"
Nanyin and Crow couldn't help laughing when they heard this, only Rui Wen still had an ignorant expression: "Chrysanthemum? Why does the fart involve chrysanthemums? I still like this plant very much, Zhang Chao, you don't play well with this analogy." β
Zhang Chao smiled and nodded, "That's right, it's my fault." β
Hearing him say this, Nanyin and Crow laughed even harder.

Presidium, southern suburbs
The sky and the earth are vast, although it is just spring, but it is too far north, and the weather in Presidium is not the same as that of Nanzhengcheng, and it is still a scene of dead silence in winter.
At this time, a team of horses was running out of the city towards the west, and the smoke and dust were filled, and the people were gradually moving away with the anxiety of leaving their homeland.
Before leaving, everyone glanced at the ancient city that was gradually blurred in the smoke and dust kicked up by the horse team, and their eyes blurred.
"There may not be a return date for this trip. β
The young man at the head sighed, and his companions were also depressed, and after a nostalgic look at their hometown, they were about to ride away.
However, at this moment, a rapid sound of horses' hooves sounded in the smoke and dust, and it was a girl in bright red armor, and her eyebrows and eyes could be faintly seen.
"Captain Zeroth, your sister has come to see you off. β
One quipped, while the other folded his hands and wanted to bubble with happiness: "I didn't expect to be able to look at Irelia again before leaving, my life can be considered complete." β
The young man at the head of the group became a little flustered, and hurriedly said, "Don't delay, let's go!"
So saying, he rode his horse and galloped, and the knights behind him laughed, and spurred their horses one after another, and chased after Zeloth.
"Zeroth, you stop!" Seeing that Zelos was leaving, Irelia hurriedly shook her long whip and struck a whip, and suddenly, the horse under Zeroth's crotch turned his head and ran towards Irelia.
Today is the day Irelia's brother Zelos sets off for Demacia to ask for reinforcements, and it's hard to know if it's a fateful journey, given that the small navy of Noxus and the hired Bilgewater pirates have sealed off the western coast of Ionia.
Zelos was a young man with a strong nose and a handsome face, with long black hair typical of the Ionian style, dressed in a black coat, and looked at him with a long sword on his back, smiling.
"Irelia, you're not at home to take care of your father, what are you doing here?"
Zelos feigned composure, his face smiling like a spring breeze, as if the young man who had just seen Irelia and was about to gallop and flee was not him at all.
Irelia's voice was a little angry: "Zeroth, didn't you tell me last night that you would send Demacia this time and let me do it for you? Why did you secretly set off early in the morning without telling me?"
Zeroth spread his hands in surprise slightly, "Did I say that? β
Irelia said angrily: "My father is seriously ill, and you are the only one in the family, if something happens to you again, our family will be extinct, you know?"
The smile on Zeroos' face retracted, "Sister, I think my father knows what you said, right? But why did he choose to let me go to Demacia instead of you?"
"My father wants to protect his daughter, and I want my sister too. β
"It's a lot more serious than what you call a never-ending post. β
Irelia said hurriedly, "But ......"
Zeroth's voice became stern: "No, the rules of the Rito family, the eldest brother is like a father, do you even have to disobey my words?"
Irelia was slightly stunned, she didn't react, this was the first time Zelos had spoken to her.
Seeing that Irelia's mood was a little low, Zelos's tone softened, and he jumped off his horse, came to Irelia's side, and said seriously, "Go back quickly, guard Presidium, and take care of our fatherβthis is also a difficult task." β
"I think my little Irelia will be able to accomplish this difficult task instead of choosing to be a deserter, can you do it?"
Zelos whispered as he looked at Irelia's somewhat reddened eyes tenderly.
Irelia looked at him, and nodded slowly but solemnly after a moment.
