Chapter 404: Rune Broadsword
"A pale woman may be a pale lady." "Of course, she's also called the Faceless Now, and she's also a member of the Trifali Council, who together decide the decisions of Noxus. ”
Rui Wen still doesn't understand, what does that pale lady have to do with the broken sword, she should have nothing to do with the rune sword after the enchantment.
"Let's put it this way, your greatsword is from the Pale Lady, and as long as the enchantment on the sword is still there, it will be easy for her to find it." Karn cautiously told Riven, and Kai'Sa explained, "Just like the locator, if someone in Noxus wants to pursue this matter, your location will be revealed." ”
"Is anyone looking for me......?" Riven pondered that her integration with Ionia meant that she was running away from her past in Noxus, and the two were incompatible.
She never thought about what she would do with the past when it caught up. The memories were painful, and she just wanted to turn the page quickly, but Karn's words revealed a message - someone didn't want her to turn the page so easily.
"Have you forgotten, you're a deserter. What to do with deserters? It's not going to be easy anyway. Kai'Sa said, "You've been in the Noxian army, so you know them well." The last war Noxus did not use all their strength at all, and they withdrew their troops because of internal contradictions, which means that when they regroup, the next war will definitely come, and when you are a deserter, the belated sanctions will still fall on you. ”
"You scared her, Kaisha." Karn told Kai'Sa to say less irrelevant and not to make people panic.
The two old farmers beside Rui Wen were so white that they couldn't speak when they heard that there would be war.
Both of their sons died on the battlefield, who will be the next turn, Rui Wen?
"In short, the Pale Lady is interested in the Great Sword, and she will send someone to retrieve it." Karn went on to say that he wanted the topic to pass as soon as possible. "If nothing else, the person who came to fetch the sword should be your Jinlan sisters back then, which is the result of deliberate arrangement. Only the people who know you best know how to deal with you. ”
"They're still alive?" Speaking of the Jinlan sisters of a war group, Rui Wen was stunned.
She hadn't forgotten about them, she just thought they had all died in that experiment, in the alchemical flames of betrayal.
"Yes, they're all alive, but they're not living well. They were all burned and disfigured by poison gas, and when they saw you planting in front of the deserters intact, without fear of your life, and then remembered that you were left in the polluted land to rot and corrode, they would definitely be very angry. ”
"I'm sorry, I thought they were all dead...... I didn't see a single moving body as I left. ”
She said sorry to her sisters on the other side of the ocean, but unfortunately they couldn't hear it.
Riven knew that some of them had an immense loyalty to the Empire in their hearts, just like she had before. So when the warriors of the empire meet deserters, even the deepest friendship will be broken.
"So, let Yasuo take the sword away, you will only attract them if you keep the sword by your side." Karn persuaded him to do so.
"But there is no sword...... How do I protect my father. Rui Wen wiped her tears, as an orphan, she can better understand the preciousness of family affection, and she wants to protect this relationship.
"We don't need your protection, don't think so much about Daida, we two half-cut old guys won't stay in this world for long." Sava's straightforward persuasion made Riven even more sad.
Although Riven can replace their two lost sons, there are some things that cannot be replaced, and she also wants death to take her and go to the other side of the curtain to reunite with her son as soon as possible.
"You discuss it, and tell me when you're ready." Karn and Yasuo got up and left the room and sat in front of the barn outside.
Although they knew that the broken sword was buried in the barn, they did not go in and rummage through it.
The reminder is also reminded, and everything is left to Ruiwen to decide.
"Actually, Ruiwen just needs to bury the sword far away, not at home." Kai'Sa sat down and grumbled.
"It's not the party, I can't understand the feelings of the party, maybe she can't think of something." Karn turned to Yasuo and asked him, "What are you going to do with the sword when you get it?" ”
He thought that the sword was so heavy, Yasuo would never carry the weight on his back. The burden on his heart was heavy enough.
"Are you so sure Riven will give me the sword?" Yasuo didn't know where to find a straw pole to hold in his mouth, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"I shouldn't refuse anymore, I feel like she's been moved."
"I'll think about it again."
After a while, Rui Wen and Father Conde came out of the house, looked at the few people outside the house, and silently walked into the barn.
There was movement inside, and after a few moments, Rui Wen brought out a huge sword wrapped in bandages.
"Take it away, I've figured it out." Rui Wen said, raising the big sword in her hand.
Yasuo went to pick it up, and almost fell down when he started to sink, but he was not embarrassed in front of people by Rui Wen. He couldn't tell if he was bitter, this one was even heavier than a flis shield.
Kai'Sa stuffed some silver taels into Ruiwen's hand, and said to her puzzled gaze, "Take it, go and build a weapon in case you need it." If you get into trouble, a ploughshare won't protect you. ”
As a Noxian, living in Ionia, trouble is inevitable, so Riven needs a certain amount of self-preservation, and Kai'Sa gives her some compensation accordingly.
Rui Wen nodded and accepted it, after building the weapon, the remaining money could improve the lives of the two old men, so she sold the sword cheaply.
Yasuo continued to be silent with his sword on his side, the money should have been paid by him, but he was penniless, and he didn't even have the money to buy wine.
"You have to dispose of this weapon properly and don't let it hurt anyone again." Rui Wen instructed the three of them.
"I'm going to bury it in the valley, that dead land." Yasuo said, "Ruiwen, do you want to go with me?" ”
"No, I'm not going, I still have to serve a prison sentence, and I can't leave the field." Riven lowered her head, her mind still resisting the place of her betrayal, where she had buried her painful past.
"I'll go with you." Karn could see that Yasuo was looking for a coolie to help him carry his sword.
Seeing Yasuo like this, he estimated that he would be out of breath if he couldn't walk a few miles with his sword on his back, and he would have to help when the time came. However, this also shows that Rui Wen's strength is really great, and this middle is no different from a one-handed sword in her hand.
"Farewell." The swordsman bowed his head and left the farmhouse.
