Sivir smiled and didn't answer Taliyah's question.

She had almost forgotten that seven days ago she had a knife cut on her back that almost pierced her abdomen.

I have to thank Jeno for making her understand how the liquid in the bladder is used, and it would have been best if he hadn't mentioned "bath water".

"I'm here to find you, come back to Shurima with me, and I'll be in charge of helping you find your tribe and family."

Taliyah saved her life, and she wanted to pay off her debt sooner.

With her connections in Shurima and a large mercenary group under her command, it wasn't too difficult to find a weaver tribe.

Taliyah resolutely refused Sivir's request to put herself in her shoes, and she gently erected a stone wall at her feet, preventing a small crab from climbing onto her cloth boots.

"Sivir, thank you for your kindness. But I've made an agreement with the scholar that until the matter of the destroyer is settled, I will have to follow him, and I will not be able to go anywhere. ”

The scholar refers to Nasus, the most learned man in the entire ancient Shurima dynasty, and the largest library in the empire is named after him. It would be too awkward and disrespectful to use the legendary title of "Lost Desert Child" for Nasus, so Taliyah has always called Nasus a scholar, which will be more respectful.

"Haven't you been looking for your family? What did you agree with Nasus? What about the conditions? "Sivir can't understand, who is the destroyer of the country? Those who have heard the legends of the older generation know that the myth of Shurima dynasty was ended by a slave named Zelas.

She witnessed the battle between Zelas and Nasus, although the two fought back and forth, but judging from the results, it was obvious that Zelas was superior, even if it was Zelas who had just been released, he still had strength to deal with Nasus who was in good health, not to mention that Zelas had gained unimaginable energy now! That's not something Nasus can compete with!

Why did Nasus, who was beaten with internal injuries, fight with the rising Zelas? Patriotism and courage alone are not enough. After all, love can't generate electricity, so she recommends that Taliyah leave Zu'an first, stop worrying about this dangerous matter, and go to her family, they need her more.

Only then did Sivir do what she wanted to do - find Azir and convince him to come to Piltover to exterminate the witch spirit Zelas and bring the havoc she had caused to him resolved.

But Sivir wasn't Taliyah, and she didn't know what Taliyah really needed.

"Your Excellency, the Scholar, has made an agreement with me to exchange my tribe's freedom from slavery for my service."

Ever since hearing of the resurrection of the last emperor, Azir, Taliyah has been apprehensive about her tribe, a nomadic sheep weaver, being taken as slaves of the feudal dynasty by the newly "unearthed" emperor.

The Shurima dynasty had always been feudal slavery, and Taliyah's fears were not without reason.

That's why she said goodbye to Master Yasuo, sailed back from Ionia day and night, and braved the scorching sun to break into the depths of the desert, determined to find her loved ones.

Her heart is rock solid, and she is willing to pay any price to protect her family and tribe, even in the face of the dangers brewing at the end of the sky.

Behind Taliyah's youthful and immature demeanor is an ambition to move mountains and reclaim the sea, and a soul that can conquer the world!

"You're so stupid, do you think Zelas is that easy to solve? You've been deceived by Nasus! He just took a fancy to your talent and wanted to use your magic against Zelas. He's not an emperor, what's the use of his promises. He works for Azir, and as long as Azil doesn't abolish slavery himself, then your clan is not free in his eyes! Don't tell me that you have any patriotic feelings, the glory of Shurima is an old thing from a thousand years ago, and you have not bathed in the glory of Shurima, so you must bear these responsibilities! ”

After all, Taliyah was just a young girl, not as much as Sivir thought.

Sivir really hoped that Taliyah would not get involved in this matter again, the last time she spoke to someone like this, she had not experienced betrayal.

Speaking of slavery, it is a heavy topic that has been a part of the thousands of years of history of the Shurima dynasty, which grew strong and fell because of it.

Azir had actually spoken of abolishing slavery, but no one who heard it survived except his vizier Zeros.

And now that he has been born again, no one knows what kind of attitude he has towards the descendants of these Shurima people, and whether he will say that declaration again?

Even Jeno doesn't know.

But he knew that Sivir arranged his ancestors like this, and if Azir listened to it, he would definitely have to serve the family law.

Having said that, Sivir didn't trust Azir, otherwise she wouldn't have escaped from the Oasis of Dawn, but fate pushed her to the forefront, and the war was about to begin, and if she wanted to end this war as soon as possible, she had to let one of them win, so Sivir could only choose the side of Azir who showed kindness to her.

But after the war with Zelas, Azir still has to face a war with the people, and Taliyah is definitely on the side of the people, fighting for freedom.

Sivir didn't want to meet his life-saver when the time came.

It's really hard to be a human being, why does she have so many troubles, how good it is to be a heartless mercenary?

"Please don't say that, the lame leg that the scholar took last time to save you has not recovered yet. I am here this time, and it is also because the scholar sensed your approach, and he asked Orianna and me to meet you together. ”

Taliyah looked at Sivir in embarrassment, what she had decided would not change, and her stubbornness would not be able to pull back even ten skashes (giant desert beasts). Don't tell her anything about the law of true fragrance, she and Jeno are not from the same world.

"It's a damn debt again."

Sivir wanted to tear off the pendant around her neck and throw it away, and it was through this thing that Nasus sensed her position, but when she thought that the main role of this thing was to shield Zelas's tracking, she resisted the urge and couldn't breathe out, only feeling a tightness in her chest and swelling in her head.

"Take me to him, I'll tell him personally."

Of course, Sivir wants to use his ascension bloodline to "reason" with Nasus, even if he uses coercion and temptation, he wants to take Taliyah away from this place of right and wrong.

Taliyah didn't say anything, she had been sent by Nasus to find Sivir. she

With Sivir with him, he walked towards Zaun, followed by Jeno and the others.

Before leaving, Orianna did not forget to remind: "Jeno, you walk at the back, make sure that the valve is closed." ”

"It's closed, it's tight." In the dim cavern, Jeno carefully checked whether the valve was intact and had no gaps through the bright light from the core, and only answered after confirming that there was no problem.

The valve was broken by Renekton once, when the sea poured back and was about to flood the Zuan Trench, but it was Britz and Zach who stepped up and blocked the cavern with their bodies. Luckily, the sea water then flowed into a certain pit.

It was only after that time that the existence of Darkharbor became widely known.

"Sister Oriana, what happens if the valve is not closed well?" Niko asked curiously.

"It's not going to happen, it's just that Ezreal will suffer."

"What? You haven't rescued Ezreal from the underground tombs yet?! ”
