Chapter 406: Burial Sword
"Almost." Karn looked at the pit in front of him, which was more than a meter deep, and asked Kai'Sa to lay down the shovel with him.
He raised his greatsword and plunged it straight into the pit, as high as the ground. But as he untied the bandage between the hilt and scabbard, the greatsword shattered into several pieces and piled up at the bottom of the pit.
Yasuo had already seen this greatsword imbued with evil power, and the black magic was wrapped around the engraved runes, which would fire at the slightest stimulus.
If the sword activates energy at close range, he may not be able to prevent it even if he is on guard. Looking at this sword, Yasuo sighed and gradually understood the situation at that time.
Karn then filled the pit back into the pit and compacted it until there were no visible marks.
"This sword is buried here."
"That's it?" Kai'Sa was stunned and said, "Don't you need to add a seal or something?" ”
"It's buried here so that the people who come looking for the sword think Rui Wen is dead." Karn explained.
Why did you take this sword away from Riwen? Because if you don't do this, it will cause the sisters to turn against each other, and Rui Wen will also be taken to the meat grinder gladiatorial arena to accept the reckoning.
The best way to avoid this is to don't let the other party find Ruiwen.
"Let's go when we're done, and get out and get some fresh air." Yasuo coughed twice, the caustic agent emitted in the air made him feel like his throat was about to burn.
The three of them walked out of the dead place, and Karn inquired about Yasuo's situation, and learned that he had rushed over to overturn the case after the Blooming Spirit.
"Elder Soma's case has been overturned, have you ever thought about going back to the dojo to have a look?"
"No, my hands are already stained with the blood of so many fellow disciples." Yasuo sighed: "I can't go back." ”
"You're going to find your brother?"
"Well, I'm going to go to the Temple of Eternity to find the Apocalypse and ask where Yonne is."
With the goal in mind, Yasuo is no longer so loose. In the past, he only knew that he wanted to seek the truth, but he didn't know how to find it, and he had been wandering and waiting for the truth to pay for himself. And now, he knows who to look for and how to find it.
Although it was not easy to get close to Karma, and the monks would not let a murderous saint come close to them easily, they finally had a goal, which was much more reliable than waiting aimlessly for Yon to come to their door.
"That place is in Shanzan in the east."
Seeing Karn fall into deep thought after saying this, Yasuo couldn't help asking, "Why, are you going to Shanzan too?" ”
"No, it's just that we're going east too." Karn replied.
They came from the south, the shadow stream to the north, and the island of Philo, where the Noxian army was stationed to the west, was inevitably bloodshed and conflict wherever they went.
While bloodshed and conflict are not immune to going elsewhere, in general it is relatively safe to go east.
But they certainly wouldn't have nothing to do with the Apocalypse, that woman knew so much that she might know it came from the Void.
"Do you want to be a companion?"
"Yes." Karn didn't expect Yasuo to offer an invitation, so he agreed without much thought.
In fact, Yasuo had no money on him, and wondered if he could get some drinks at Karn's place along the way.
The three of them hit it off and immediately headed east.
……
For the next two weeks, the trip went smoothly and there were not many Navoli bandits. Even if there were, Yasuo showed a few hands to scare people away.
Gradually, Yasuo took the initiative to become the bodyguard of the two. And all he wanted was a few sips of wine.
Maybe it's because Yon likes to lecture him, so Yasuo also likes to preach to people, and he has to say a few words to help a child blow down a kite stuck in a tree, and he has to teach a few words after beating a few bandits.
Whenever this happened, Karn would smile and stuff him with a jug of wine, telling him to say less. In short, this is a person who is very easy to get along with when he has wine, but it is difficult to make friends.
On this day, when the three of them came to the city of Precidian in Navoli, Yasuo walked in front and reminded:
"If you want to go to Shangzan, you have to pass through a large ridge, and if you can't go around it, you can only climb it, so it's better for us to settle down in the city and replenish our things before we go on the road."
Yasuo pointed to the mountains in the distance, the northern end of the ridge at a high altitude and covered with snow all year round, even in the warm spring months.
"Of course you can, it's Presidian ahead, at least you have to take a good look before you go." Karn readily agreed.
Presidium, the capital of Ionia, is a cultural and political center with its sanctuary of harmony and is so prosperous compared to other regions that you can't just pass by.
Yasuo smiled rarely, and he shook the empty flask, "Just go get some wine." ”
Karn didn't understand what he was laughing at, it was something he was trying to dispel his sorrows, and he drank it when he was sad. But he didn't go back to stir up the people's interest.
"I'll please, you've helped us a lot along the way." He said.
"That's what I'm saying, a few little thieves, I know you can solve it yourself." Yasuo said modestly.
"Anything else, we wouldn't have been able to get to Presidon so quickly without you."
After entering the city gate, Kai'Sa peeked at the tall walls.
The wall was several times taller than the tallest trees in the forest, and was a combination of carpenters who spawned trees and moved trees, somewhat similar to the tree walls of the Righteous Order, but not so pure and dense.
"This wall...... It always gives me the feeling of a big fence, not very sturdy. Kai'Sa wondered, "As the capital of Ionia, are the walls of Presidium so sloppy?" It always feels like a fire can be burned clean. ”
Presidium is a city that was taken over by Noxus, so Kai'Sa thinks it's strange not to learn from the lessons and build stronger walls.
"The Noxians have succeeded in overturning the walls we have built every time," Yasuo asked rhetorically, "What's the point of building higher and stronger walls?" ”
"Isn't there that outpost either? This is the most basic function. ”
"It's not nothing, it's just that you don't have to stick to the form, you can take a closer look."
Following Yasuo's words, Kai'Sa looked at the wall again.
This time, she saw guards hidden in the branches of the city wall, perfectly blended into the huge thorny vines and branches, some of them were humans, and some of them were vastayas with feathers or furs, carrying bows and arrows, patrolling the city inside and out.
Obviously, these are sentinels.
"I see." Kai'Sa probably understood that since these people could easily climb the city wall to reconnoitre, there was no need to build any outposts. Eyeliner is everywhere.
"While the Noxians can always breach our walls, it's not useless." Yasuo began to preach again, "You know the siege beasts of Noxus, right? ”
