In the splendid palace, dozens of meters up from the gold-paved avenue, you can see an emperor on the throne looking at the world, and this world is now in the court, it is the officials wearing luxurious white robes one after another. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

At the head of the throne, two majestic courtiers were displayed at the head of the military and civil officials, one was a general with the head of a crocodile, scales and armor, and a man standing up like a prehistoric dinosaur in armor, and the other was a scholar with a golden scepter and the head of a jackal.

They are the guardians of the Shurima Empire, revered by the people, standing at the top of humanity, the ascended heroes who are the closest to gods in legend.

"I declare that at the end of the next calendar month, at the Sun God Festival, I will perform the Ascension Ceremony. ”

The emperor's majestic voice echoed in the main hall, it was a man wearing a yellow robe, engraved with a sunbird totem on it, his face was not as handsome as a mortal, like the Greek mythological god Apollo, his body was as majestic as an immortal mountain, and every muscle was full of explosive power.

On his shoulders stood an eagle, an equally remarkable eagle with golden feathers, the tail of which dragged out a squirming red speck, the power of flame.

This is the last sunbird in the world, and perhaps its real name should be called the Sun Condor, but those ordinary falcons are no match for the sunbirds.

Besides, there are too many states with the eagle as the flag, but there is only one emperor, if it is in the name of the sun eagle, where can the majesty of the emperor be displayed?

"Your Majesty the Emperor, only the Sun Priests are qualified to decide who is qualified to perform the Ascension Ritual......" The ministers looked embarrassed and dissuaded.

In fact, since last month, His Majesty the Emperor has already revealed that he wants to carry out the ascension ceremony, but at that time it was opposed by almost all the ministers, including the two Ascension Heroes and all the Sun Priests.

So at that time, the emperor did not insist, who knew that when everyone thought that the emperor had given up this whimsical idea, he actually issued an order directly!

You must know that when he really issued this order, there was no room for turning around in this matter, either the ministers gave up their insistence and turned to support the emperor, or they could only stand on the opposite side of the emperor.

"Could it be that the authority of the Sun Priests is greater than mine?"

"Your Majesty's authority is like the scorching sun in the sky, and the Sun Priests are at most your slaves, and they are qualified to decide whether or not they are eligible to participate in the Ascension Ceremony, and of course you have it, Your Majesty. Standing beside the emperor was a man with a soft complexion, he was not a eunuch, just a secretary, but the person the emperor relied on and trusted the most.

If he hadn't been born as a slave, I'm afraid he would have already become a big man in the entire Shurima Empire, second only to the emperor in power.

"Zelas, you're right, I'm the Emperor, the Supreme Son of the Sun who established the immortal Shurima Empire, my will is the will of the Sun, what qualifications do the Sun Priests have to stop me?

There was silence below, and the wolf-headed civil servant was silent, holding a book with a dark cover.

The crocodile-headed general also didn't say a word, silently looking down at his thick and powerful crocodile claws.

Seeing that no one responded, the anger in the emperor's heart became more and more intense, and he was about to attack when he heard Zelas beside him respectfully answer: "If even His Majesty the Emperor is not qualified to carry out the ascension mode, there will be no one in the entire heaven and earth who has this qualification." ”

Just as the Emperor was about to praise the festival, a voice full of anger rang out.

"Zeroth, you are but a slave, and you dare to bewitch His Majesty the Emperor!" a white-haired minister retorted angrily.

The emperor's face froze, his face was gloomy, and he slapped the imperial case in front of him fiercely, and the whole person suddenly stood up and shouted: "Ravel! What is bewitchment? Do you think I am a faint king?"

Ravel shuddered, but the anger in his heart became more and more intense, and he said loudly: "Zelas is bent on His Majesty trying the Ascension Ritual, but the danger of the Ascension Ritual is well known, what is his intention?"

The emperor's face softened slightly, Ravel was his relative, and he didn't want to embarrass him too much, so he waved his hand: "I've been prepared, Nasus, don't stand still, tell me what you think." ”

The jackal-headed scholar nodded, opened the book and skimmed through the data: "The safety of the Ascension Ritual really needs to be improved...... It is recorded that almost every ascension ceremony that takes place every thirty years has survived, and my brother Renekton and I are among the only two exceptions that have been successful in the last few hundred years, so I do not advise you, Your Majesty, to perform such an unsecured ceremony. ”

"Moreover, it has only been twenty years since the last Ascension Ceremony, which is simply not enough time for the solar disk to refill with energy, and if we have to take place, we will have to pay more to recruit more slaves from our courtiers. ”

Nasus spoke eloquently, without the slightest personal emotion, just silently stating the data and facts.

"Lord Galama has been a little unruly in recent years, I don't think there is any need for this state to continue to exist, Renekton, lead the soldiers to bulldoze there, and all Galamas will be reduced to slaves!" the Emperor calmly gave another order. "In that case, the slaves who built the new altar would be enough. ”

"Your Majesty, this opening must not be opened, attacking the vassal state for no reason, this is a unique thing in the entire history of the Shurima Empire, if you really do this, the future generations will ......" Ravel's eyes were sour, Lord Garama was his nephew, and every time he came to worship the suzerain, he had to make a large offering to him, if he was slaughtered by the emperor, it would be a fatal blow to their Ravel family.

"Hereafter?" the emperor sneered, "Where is the afterlife, after the ascension, I will prosper forever, where is there any need for the afterlife!"

The old minister suddenly fell to his knees with a pop, tears and snot in his eyes, and he cried: "If this precedent is set anew, it will definitely go up and down, and in the long run, the world will be in chaos! Your Majesty think twice!"

"The world is in chaos, hmph, I am the world!" The emperor turned around indifferently, and did not look at anyone again, and he did not need to care about anyone's emotions, because he was the emperor of the largest Shurima Empire in this world, and the world was supreme!

Even the three winter sisters of the Freljord Empire in the north were far from being able to match him, and he didn't need to be afraid of anyone.

——————————

Darkness and light alternated in front of Zhang Chao's eyes, and in the final self-detonation of Blood Demon Tik, because of the guardian angel, he did not die, or even suffer too serious injuries.

Of course, this was all expected by him, so at the last moment, he rushed straight into the body of the Blood Demon Tik without any protection, and deprived the Moon Demon of the hidden power in it with the Blade of the Ruined King.

It was a moon, immersed in Tik's blood, emitting a crystal light.

It's just that the explosion was so terrifying that he only had time to press this bright moon into his eyes, and it was directly annihilated into ashes...... I don't know if that month has been preserved, if not, it will be a big loss.

"This is ......" The darkness in front of Zhang Chao's eyes gradually faded, replaced by a dazzling light, vague, as if he saw a wooden roof, a very old-fashioned roof supported by round wooden beams and columns.

System: "This is the Land of Runeterra, and the coordinates are probably in the southern part of the Shurima Empire." ”

"You're awake. Suddenly, an extremely hoarse voice that looked like an old tuberculosis patient sounded in Zhang Chao's ears.

Zhang Chao was slightly stunned, and his divine sense, which had not been used for many years, was opened again, and he once again had a vision of 360 degrees without dead ends.

It was an old man, his face full of wrinkles and age spots, his loose flesh tightly wrapped around the skeleton, and his dark skin, which was as white as that of a black African, made him look thinner and thinner.

Zhang Chao was stunned, and for no reason thought of the scene where a beautiful woman saves a hero that is often seen in novels, but the reality is reality, which is completely different from the routine described in the novel where a serious injury is picked up by a beautiful woman and then promised to each other.

Zhang Chao recalled how he came here, and said, "Old man, what kind of place is this?" ”

When the old man heard Zhang Chao's voice, his hand that was weaving the basket shook, and he turned his head in surprise: "Ah...... You speak our dialect here......"

Zhang Chao was slightly stunned, and then reacted that this should be the function of the system's built-in translator, so he nodded and asked again: "Old man, what is this place, and how did I come here?"
