The continent of Valoran is located in the middle of the Runeterra, surrounded by the sea. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

And in the very center of the Valoran continent, in addition to the War College built of precious obsidian, which symbolizes peace, is the mountain range that cuts across the entire north and south of the Valoran continent - the magnificent barrier.

This magnificent barrier, stretching from the Sea of the Conquerors to the Sea of the Conquerors in the west and the Sea of the Watchmen in the east, is not only continuous, but also has steep cliffs on both sides of the barrier, reaching into the sky, making it prohibitive.

After bidding farewell to Rengar, and after another two days of marching, Galen and his party came to the foot of the magnificent barrier.

The magnificent barrier is worthy of the first mountain range that crosses the Valoran continent, and the height is so high that it took Galen and his party five days just to reach the top, and it lives up to its magnificent name.

However, after reaching the top, the joy of standing on the top of the summit and taking in the scenery of the entire continent completely conceals the exhaustion of the summit.

When you raise your head, you can see the ethereal clouds overhead, and when you look at it directly, the sea of conquerors not far away is blue, and the vast land of the Valoran continent is in full view.

As the first person in the group to step on the top, Galen looked at the scenery in front of him, and only felt a sense of grandeur in his chest, and couldn't help but want to roar to vent the breath in his heart.

They were followed by Lux and Charles, who ran up in a hurry, looking back and forth a few times, screaming incessantly.

Ruiz, who came up at the end, looked at the presumptuous appearance of a few of them, smiled slightly, and the whistling mountain wind blew his black cloak to the ground and flew lightly.

"Galen Galen, come and see, over there, is that Nassau town over there!" The sharp-eyed Charles pointed to a black spot on the northern shore and exclaimed with joy.

When Galen heard Charles' words, he hurriedly raised his palms, blocked his eyebrows, squinted his eyes, looked in the direction pointed by Charles, and said excitedly: "It seems to be true, we have been walking for so many days, but I didn't expect to see Nassou Town!" ”

"Look, look, it's the royal palace of Demacia!" Lux screamed.

"Where, where?" Galen hurriedly turned around and looked in the direction that Lux was pointing.

Faintly, you can see the top of the spire with a blue flag fluttering in the distance, where the imperial city of Demacia is located.

Ruiz looked at the fussing three people on the side, shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile: "You guys, you are so surprised to come here, if you get to the Giant God Peak, won't you be scared?" ”

When the three of them heard Ruiz's words, they all turned their heads to look at Ruiz in unison, and at this time, in the distance behind Ruize, was the towering first peak of the continent, the Giant God Peak!

"Wow! It's so high! Charles said with a wistful look on his face.

"Wow!! It's too high! Lux said with a sad face.

"Wow!! How can it be so high! Galen said with a demented look on his face.

“……”

"Lord Ruiz, are we really going to climb that mountain?" Just climbing the magnificent barrier was already so tiring, not to mention the Giant God Peak with no end in sight.

"Of course, that's where we're going."

Ruiz found a place to sit down, and then said, "Okay, let's rest here first, eat something, and get to the Giant God Peak from here, there are still a few days to go." ”

Charles was the first to react from the amazement, he put the luggage behind him on the ground, and said happily, "Rui...... Teacher, you sit here for a while, and I'll go find out if there are any ingredients, there will definitely be delicious mushrooms around here! ”

Although he has become Ruiz's second apprentice, Charles still has not adapted to being called Ruiz, and he has not let go of his duties as a little butler because of this, and the daily life and food of the group are still taken care of by him.

Over the past few days, Charles has enjoyed the study life of Lux, which he had envied so much, and has begun to get in touch with and master the magic he had ever dreamed of learning.

Ruiz saw Charles, who was not arrogant or impatient, and nodded with satisfaction, not only because of his attitude, but also because Charles's talent for magic learning, although it is not as high as Lux, but it is also a very good seedling on the mainland.

A few days of climbing had already exerted too much physical strength for their group, and there was no suitable camping spot on the way up the mountain, so they didn't have a good rest.

For the past few days, they have been living on dry food brought with them, and Ruiz also misses the delicious taste of the mushroom soup stewed by the Charles.

"Let Galen come with you, and take care of anything." Ruiz turned to Galen and said, "Galen, put your things down, go with Charles to find some ingredients, go and go back quickly, it's not too peaceful on the top of this mountain." ”

"Yes, Lord Ryze."

Galen woke up from the shock, he put his bags on his back, but saw that Charles had already run far away, hurriedly put his heavy sword on his shoulder, and chased after him, shouting, "Charles, wait for me!" ”

Lux, on the other hand, carefully put aside his magic book and set up the stew pot that Charles had brought, and Charles' hand was injured in the process of reaching the top, so Lux had to share part of Charles's daily life during the time when Charles was recovering.

Lux carefully set up the stew pot, poured the pot with the water she had stored before, closed the lid, clapped her hands with satisfaction, and said squeamishly to Ruiz: "Teacher, I have finished the pot, I will go to find some firewood, teacher, you can sit and read a book first." ”

"Go ahead, don't go too far, stay safe."

"Okay, teacher, I'll go."

After saying goodbye to Ryze for a while, Lux began searching the neighborhood for dry wood that could be used to start a fire.

Watching Lux jump away, Ruiz smiled, and then sat on a stone in a rare leisure, on the way to the mountain in the past few days, he had already taught Lux and Charles the preliminary method of controlling mana, compression, as for the next step of cultivation, it would have to wait until the two of them mastered the mana compression.

Ruiz casually took out his magic book and waved it seemingly casually, and the magic book also casually turned one of the pages, and Ruiz read it casually.

Lux hummed a popular tune from Nassau as she picked up dry wood scattered on the ground.

Before she knew it, she had reached the edge of the cliff to the south of the great barrier, and when Lux looked up inadvertently, she saw the charred ruins under the mountain, between the mist and the clouds.

This is...... It was a land of ruins, broken wreckage that looked like there had once been a magnificent city, as if it had been destroyed in a terrible war a long time ago.

However, a towering bell tower in the ruins has been preserved intact, and even from the top of the grand barrier, the time on this bell tower can still be clearly distinguished.

Lux was stunned by what she saw, and she hurriedly shouted, "Teacher, teacher, come and see, there's a ruin there!" ”

Hearing Lux's shout, Ruiz unhurriedly put away the magic book and walked over, and when he saw the towering bell tower, Ruiz had a look of sudden realization on his face.

"Oh, that's it, Lux, there, that ruins used to be a city called Ertistan, and that bell tower is the symbol of Ertistan!"

Ruiz said slowly, "It's also the hometown of an old friend of mine. ”
