Chapter Twenty-Five: A Beautiful Encounter

"If you have one breath, it is useless to say more. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

These were Svein's last words to Zyra.

And Zyra, on the other hand, will never forget why Swie would say that to her.

Many years ago, during the unprecedented war on the mainland, it was a period of heroes.

Svein, who was a staff officer of the Noxus Army Department at the time, always had an eerie bird standing on his shoulder, as if it was glued to his shoulder.

Accounts of Svein appear in the Noxian Army documents, though they are incomplete.

Normally, the proud army of Noxus would have rejected a lame man, but the documents do not record why his foot was lame, but it is recorded that Svein's first appointment to the position of senior staff officer was that of a senior staff officer.

Moreover, those soldiers who served Svein and survived on the battlefield were very obedient to his command and possessed unshakable loyalty. Svein rose by leaps and bounds in the ranks of the High Command, and often officers higher than him admired his incomparable intelligence and demanded to be demoted to his army.

A cunning strategist, Svein was honored by the war, and he often limped in meditation before giving the order to attack.

Svein had always been on the rise, but just before Noxus decided to invade Ionia, his rights were suddenly overturned, a bureaucratic decision that was puzzling.

If you think Svein will be upset by what is happening at the moment, you're wrong. He was never disappointed by this, his face always looked calm, and many people said that it was actually a mask, and under the mask was absolute savage cruelty. There were more rumors about the bird that never left his shoulder, and Svein would call it by its name, Pierce.

After being removed from his post, Svein remained silent in his residence for a long time. When he figured it all out, he left Noxus with his eerie little bird named Pierce and embarked on a secret journey around the continent alone.

Svein first chose to go to the pirate-infested island of Blue Flame, an island of sin known to the pirates as Bilgewater.

In Bilgewater, Svein finds a down-and-out pirate. The two had a secret meeting.

Since then, a new star has risen in Bilgewater's pirate circles, and with the help of a dilapidated pirate ship, the Abyss, he kills people and steals ships on the Watchmen's Sea.

No one knows why such a pirate, who has always been unknown, rose so quickly, but there was always someone who saw a masked man standing on the side of the battered pirate ship. A grim man on crutches with a blood-red parrot standing on his shoulder! (Strategist Commander Svein, Pirate Staff Skin.) )

The scheming and ruthless captain Planck of the Abyss, the self-proclaimed King of the Bandits, ruled the Overseer Sea with intimidation, violence, and intrigues, and then extended his black hand to Bilgewater.

Wherever Planck goes, death and ruins are bound to be left behind, so. He is notorious and notorious as long as his black sails are just above the sea level. No matter how seasoned the sailors of the fleet were, they were in a hurry, and for a moment, the name of 'Scourge of the Seas' was like a dark cloud that could not disperse, and it was densely enveloped in the Blue Flame Island and the Sea of the Watcher.

Just after Planck ruled the whole of Pilgewater with an iron hand, Svein, who was the operator behind the scenes, drove a small boat. Quietly leaving Blue Flame Island, he went to Acacia alone, and from there he took his way, all the way through the flat Stormwind Plains, past the barren Voodoo Lands. Came to the ancient jungle of Kumang.

Svein then traveled south to the Plague Jungle, known as the Forbidden Land of Life, where he met the Queen of Thorns, Zyra.

It was a very amazing encounter.

The masked Svein took his bird that always stood on his shoulder and walked into the plague jungle with green miasma.

The green miasma caused Svein a lot of trouble, but as a peerless wise man, Svein was also very knowledgeable, and he had a very deep knowledge of magic potions, and some people even said that he once received an honorary doctorate at the University of Science and Technology and Magic in Zaun, of course, these are impossible to verify.

After inhaling some of the miasma, Svein took out several colorful potions from his body according to his body's reaction, concocted a bottle of pitch-black potion, and drank most of it himself, of course, without forgetting to give his Pierce a little drink.

After drinking the potion, Svein was quickly immune to the miasma, and he began to explore the poisonous jungle with great interest, and he was surprised to find that the former species in the jungle were dead, but the corpses were not completely decomposed.

And, his Pierce, who seemed to have a great interest in these rotting corpses, flew off Svein's shoulder, stood on top of them, pecked the rotten flesh of the rotting corpses with its pointed beak, and ate them into his stomach one bite at a time.

While Pierce pecked at the carrion, Svein watched with a smile on the sidelines, and he was surprised to find that every time Pierce swallowed a piece of carrion, his own body would have a strange feeling.

So, Svein liked the place, and he found a tree hole where he and Pierce could rest, and lived here for a long time, and every day, Svein would let Pierce peck at carrion, and recorded it in the book he carried with him, as if he was experimenting with something.

While Svein was happily doing his research every day, he did not notice that in the place where he haunted every day, a strange vine was getting denser and denser.

That is, the web of perception laid by the Queen of Thorns, who discovered novelties.

The poisonous miasma of the plague jungle has wiped out most of the animals in this jungle, leaving only some extremely vigorous underground creatures to survive.

For this reason, Zyra, who could not prey on animals, had no choice but to change back into plant form, relying on the nutrients in the land to maintain the continuation of life.

Until, that interesting person arrived.

Zyra was very curious about why this man was not afraid of the miasma of the jungle, very curious about why this man liked to watch the ugly crow peck at the rotten carrion, and very curious that this person could make the crow attach to him and become a different shape.

Zyra just watched this person quietly every day, and she never got tired of it.

When everything has become a habit, changing it becomes the most uncomfortable thing in the world.

On this day, Zyra was very uncomfortable, because she saw that the person she had been used to for a long time was leaving the land in which she had been rooted for so long.

Zyra didn't want him to go, so she felt she should do something for him.

Svein didn't have anything with him, except for Pierce on his shoulder and the notes in his arms, he was alone, so, when he felt that his experiment was done, he turned away, he didn't know her, so he didn't say goodbye to her.

However, Svein couldn't take the step he wanted to take, and he looked down and saw a vine wrapped around his foot.

Zyra was telling him that she didn't want to say goodbye.

This is the first contact they have had in so long together, and it is also a beautiful encounter. (To be continued.) )
