Chapter 24: Encounter

"In front of you is the city of Maggie, and in front of the city of Maggie is the port of the Ionian coast. Looks like my journey in Ionia is coming to an end. Izawa, who was holding the map in his hand, muttered as he hurried.

Ize was not too fast, and by the time he reached the edge of the mountain, it was already evening.

Izawa looked at the mountain in front of him, and it seemed that he was going to spend the night in the woods again tonight.

Izawa sat cross-legged beside a babbling stream in the woods, thinking about what had happened in the past few days. "The Void Clan has appeared. And stared at me. Why do you want me to be a guide, is it really as simple as just wanting me to be a guide? Also, I'm too strong to see, it's time to go back. ”

"Hey, Mr. Horu, there's a lost teenager here." Suddenly, a shout interrupted Ize's thoughts.

Izawa looked at the waist-length black hair in front of him, wearing a strong suit, and carrying a strange-shaped big sword behind his back, and the girl of the same age as himself smiled evilly: "Little girl, don't talk nonsense, I'll get lost?" I'm an explorer. ”

"Crunch, squeak." A few crisp clatters of trampling on branches were accompanied by a hearty shout, "What's wrong, Irelia." A bald man named Horu appeared in Izawa's field of vision, dressed in a coarse linen vest with rumbling muscles. There is a long scar under the blazing eye, which makes people feel fierce. But Ize didn't seem to see this, and was stunned, "Irelia? Irelia! It was the daughter of Master Rio, and when he said goodbye to Master Rio, he would take her with him if he met him, but I still haven't figured out what Master Rio means. MD, it's coming so fast. How do I tell her? Izawa thought for a moment.

"Hey, boy. Are you alone on this mountain so late? Horu's deep voice interrupted Ize's thoughts. Ah, what's wrong, what's the problem? Izawa stood up and looked at the almost perfect muscular man in front of him.

"Don't you know that there are often demonic beasts here?" Horu looked at young Izawa.

"Warcraft, nothing. I've seen a lot. Ize looked at it with a blank look. Because he was still thinking in his heart how to convey the words of the Rio master.

"That's right. I brought my students to the experience, and our camp is over there. It's almost midnight, come over there and come to us if you need anything. Young explorers. Horu frowned and glanced at the explorer, who didn't know the height of the sky, and turned to leave.

"But, Mr. Horu!" Irelia shouted, with her sword on her back. "Let's go, Eliria." Horu disappeared into the night without looking back.

"In the middle of the night, the monsters here will come out in droves. If you come across a horde of Warcraft, shout loudly, we'll hear it, then I'll go first. Remember to be careful! Irelia cautiously finished speaking to Izawa, turning and running in the direction of Horu's departure.

Izawa looked at the girl who gradually disappeared into the night, and shook his head, "Forget it, look at her as she has been trained in the academy." Don't tell her just yet. ”

After August, the cool wind was blowing in the woods, and Izawa was about to fall asleep as he squinted and lay in the woods by the stream, counting the stars in the sky. Suddenly, there was a roar of "whoa, whoa". "This mountain that does not fall is actually a demonic beast mountain range, and there are ancient trees that have grown for hundreds or thousands of years, weeds, thorns, and vines are dense all over the place. It is estimated that it is a Demon Beast Mountain Range ten meters away, and it is impossible to see with the eyes. "Teacher Horu is explaining to the students the dangers of the Warcraft Mountain Range." Hey, hey, Irelia. Not to mention the grass ten meters away, in a weed in front of you, maybe this big python is hidden," a young man dressed in a gorgeous costume with a pair of triangular eyes, and a young man who looked like a gentleman at first glance also said next to him. "Oh, yes. Cook, be careful. Irelia replied coldly.

At the same time, our Iza side. Izawa, who heard the roar, didn't pay much attention to it, still squinting his eyes. Until... "Well, there are a lot of stars tonight, but they aren't very bright. I miss the night watching the stars on the roof of my hometown. Wait a minute! Is that? What kind of creature is that? Izawa stood up with a carp, looking at the shadows and shadows of the vines hidden in the branches of the trees dozens of meters away.

"Wolves, it's a bit tricky right now." Izawa leaned against a tree. But the wolves did not rush to attack, and still kept wandering around the periphery. "Is it waiting for an accomplice? Or is it waiting for the wolf lord to call the shots? Izawa thought to himself.

Suddenly, the wolves moved. A few wolf cubs on the edge rushed towards Ize like lightning under the leadership of a much larger wolf king. The other wolves jumped up from the grass. Without a wolf howl, the charge began silently.

Izawa backhanded an object from the package and threw it at the wolves, bursting into a blazing white light. One dodged and pressed towards the wolf king.

"Teacher Horu, over there!" Irelia was the first to spot the bright light on Ezawa's side.

Horu rushed in, and Irelia looked at the scene in front of her. More than a dozen wolves formed an encirclement, and a pair of ghostly eyes stared at Ize in the circle, as well as the obviously larger wolf king under his feet.

"This kid." Horu took a deep breath, and the muscles of his whole body stood out even more visibly. A punch directly smashed into a wolf, the fist pierced the air, and a sharp whistling sound sounded. "Whew" I saw that Horu's big fist smashed firmly on a wolf. The heavy impact sound of "bang" made the other little wolves feel their hearts beat hard. Irelia drew her strangely shaped greatsword as well.

Ize raised his foot, and the wolf king at his feet fluttered to his feet and howled, and ran out first. The little wolves in the back gradually ran out.

"Boy, the strength is good" Listening to this hearty voice, you know that it is Huolu. "Small." Izawa moved his wrist.

"Hmph, if we hadn't come, you'd be wolf dung tomorrow morning." A sarcastic voice came, and Izawa turned around to see that it was the young man in a fancy costume.

"Kuler, shut up." Irelia put away her greatsword. "Come to our camp together, explorer." Irelia said.

"Still, I don't have to." Izawa glanced at the boy named Culler. "Let's go together, I don't know if there will be other Warcraft tonight. Also, if you're not familiar with the terrain here, you'll be able to cross this mountain range in no time with us. Horu's hearty voice came.

"Okay then." Izawa nodded.

Izawa looked at Irelia, who was leading the way, and stopped talking. Because he hadn't decided whether to tell her about her father's words. But he didn't see the vicious gaze of Kueller behind him. "This yellow-haired boy pretends to be unfathomable. If you dare to steal my limelight, I must repair him fiercely. "The people who rested in the camp for the night continued to walk on the mountain without setting in the morning sun." Wow, Brother Izawa. Do you really want to travel the entire continent. A little girl in a mage's robe, a tall hat on her head, and a little star in her eyes asked, adoringly. yes, I had this idea when I was very young. It's a boring life to want to stay in one place all the time," Izawa said with a yawn.

"Stop chattering, Defia. Explore the woods ahead. Horu said with a serious face.

"Yes, Mr. Horu." Dressed in mage robes, Defia took a deep breath and muttered a spell in her mouth. "Wind of Inquiry!"

Suddenly, a slight wind spread in all directions, centered on Defiya.

"Report to Mr. Huolu, there are only forest demon frogs and a few swamp crabs within three hundred meters of the front." Defiia reported.

"Good. Everyone, beyond the dense forest in front of you, you can see the walls of Maggie City. Teacher Horu's hearty voice came.

It is also not known how long the team has been gone. The surrounding dense thorns, messy weeds, etc., everything seems so primitive. Irelia and Defia had a casual chat, but Kueller interjected next to him, but saw that the two of them didn't pay attention to him, and his face was a little gloomy. Izawa listened to the conversation with a smile, but he was thinking about his own thoughts: "The southernmost city is ahead." I don't know if I can meet Yi. ”

The sun slowly set in the west, and everyone walked through the dense forest, but they didn't encounter a few demonic beasts that didn't open their eyes.

Suddenly, Teacher Horu made a gesture of silence. Izawa and the members of the team followed Mr. Horu in the grass, only to see two unsightly figures facing each other in the open field outside the woods. Izawa stepped forward, picked up the thick branches and looked at the two figures in the clearing, turned to Horu and said, "They are all holding swords, as if they are dueling. Teacher Huo Lu said cautiously: "I don't know if it's just a simple duel or life and death." We don't know where it came about, and we don't want to get involved. Don't worry about it, take a detour. ”

Teacher Huo Lu was turning around and planning to take the students back to the city. Unexpectedly, Cook, a young man in a fancy dress, suddenly walked out of the grass and came to the clearing, and said impatiently: "You can see Maggie City right away." What a long way to find troubles. I'm going to go around you, I want to go home soon. And he walked on without regard to the crowd.

His action also caused the two figures in the clearing to discover the existence of the team. One of the figures with his back to the squad was still staring at the opponent in front of him, but he said eagerly: "Stop!" It's dangerous here. ”

Ize's eyes widened suddenly, and the voice... Yes easy! But before Ize could speak, a woman's lazy voice came into everyone's ears: "Since you're here, let's stay." "Huh?" Izawa was the first to look up. I saw a young girl sitting on the trunk of a towering tree. With long blood-red hair, he played with a few daggers in his hand, and looked at the team below with a bloodthirsty smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Hehehe, are you ready to deal with trouble," the girl on the trunk jumped down, her long red hair floating in the air in a bloody light, and the dagger in her hand stabbed at Cook first.

"Ahh Looking at the blood in mid-air and the dagger stabbing at him, Cook seemed to be stunned, and his throat was open.

"Be careful!" Izawa and Horu strode over at the same time, but they couldn't get as fast as the daggers fell.

"Boom!" Izawa saw only a shadow scrape, and then heard the screech of metal clashing.

"Izawa, I don't know when you came to Ionia." A figure stood in front of Kuller and caught the dagger that was coming at him. He turned his head and smiled at Izawa.

"Hahaha, easy! You don't know how long I've been looking for you. "Izawa comes up with a bear hug." By the way, who are they? Izawa looked at a red-haired girl who rolled over and floated into the distance, standing side by side with the person who had been fighting Yi before.

"They're from Noxus." Yi raised the sword flat in front of his eyes and said slowly.

"Noxus, though I don't know why. But it won't be a good thing. Izawa moved his wrist and stood side by side with Yi.

"Irelia, take care of Cook." Teacher Horu tosses the frightened Cook to Irelia.

Teacher Huo Lu turned around and strode forward, the muscles on his body bulging: "You two little guys, let's go up together." ”

"Hehehe, if you insist. Tyrone, we've been underestimated. The red-haired girl laughed.

"Don't care, Katarina. It's just a corpse in the gutter again. "The man named Tyrone had his face obscured by a cloak, making it difficult to see his expression.

Yi looked at Teacher Horu, who was striding towards Tyrone and Katarina, and reminded, "Don't be careless, this, this Teacher Horu." They are ... Yi's voice did not fall. I saw a shocking protrusion.

"Haha, hahaha. Full fire. "Right in front of Yi and Izawa, behind Teacher Horu, a large rat that emerged from the air held an unknown weapon in his hand and spewed out thick green liquid.

Izawa's eyes widened and he shouted angrily, "Tucci! ”

"Hehehe, I never said that. There were only two of us. Caterina said with a smile on her face.

"Huh!" Teacher Huo Lu snorted, at such a close distance, he was caught off guard and still hit the trick. The two arms quickly turned green. Teacher Horu looked back with difficulty at the enemy who had attacked him. He fell to the ground with a thud.

"Horu-sensei!" Ize and Yi flew forward in one lunge.

"Your opponent, here." A silver light framed Yi's sword.

"Qiang, Qiang!" In an instant, the two had already clashed a few times.

"Well, yellow-haired boy. I'm here to play with you. Caterina swung her dagger and leaped from a distance.

Izen frowned, still rushing towards Tucci, he had to save people first.

"Hahaha, yellow-haired boy. You're already too busy to take care of yourself. "Caterina is here in a flash.

"Smack!"

Caterina frowned, looking at the girl in front of her who was holding a big sword and motionless in front of her, as calm as a mountain.

Ezer didn't look back, because he knew it was Irelia.

"Tucci, you don't have a chance." Ize roared. Yi and Tyrone have been fighting, and the sound of collision keeps ringing. As soon as Tyrone landed, a pair of cold eyes under the cloak stared at Yi. In an instant, he used his strength to jump, and he jumped towards Yi at great speed.

The sharp thin sword in Yi's hand slashed past like lightning, and the dark green light on the surface of the thin sword flowed.

"Boom!" The two exchanged blows once and immediately separated.

And Irelia's side. Caterina played with the dagger in her hand and stroked her long blood-red hair: "Let's start killing and killing." Irelia held the sword in one hand, her eyes determined.

Countless daggers flew around Katarina, sweeping like a bloody storm. Irelia was a little at her feet, and the whole person flew up to meet her. The two exchanged views in the air several times, with Caterina wielding a beautiful and deadly dagger, and Irelia's broadsword dexterous.

The sound of "clanging" is endless.

"Whew!" After a duel, Caterina flew diagonally towards a nearby tree, and Irelia landed heavily on the ground covered in thick fallen leaves. Without the slightest breath, Caterina kicked the trunk with both feet, brandishing her dagger and slashing it to the ground. Irelia stepped on the ground and rose to the ground, her sword swaying upward. "Whew!" The two of them tore through the air with an extremely fast movement, sending out a piercing scream.

At the same time, Izawa finally saves Horu-sensei. Ignoring Tucci, he picked up Teacher Horu and turned around and walked out of the clearing. "Defia, take care of the two of them. Don't join a warband lightly. Izawa put Mr. Horu and Cook together. Unloaded his backpack and walked towards Tucci.

"Hehehehehe, Ezreal, can you still be so calm now." Tucci was even more hideous than when they first met, emitting thick green smoke.

Izawa glanced at Tucci faintly, but did not speak. Because he knew in his heart that as long as one of the three of them wins, the situation would be one-sided, and he believed in his friends.

Izawa took a deep breath. "There's no time to waste."

"The spell is high." A faint light appeared on Izawa's body.

"Arcane Shooting!" Izawa's originally indifferent eyes burst out like thunder and lightning.

Tucci suddenly saw the furious, rapid force that appeared in front of him. He stayed where he was and didn't move, because he felt that he couldn't dodge, he couldn't win.

"Whew!"

Tucci's limbs limped, and his body trembled violently. Slowly lowered his head. The force that passed through Tucci's body hit a large tree behind Tucci. The "click" tree snapped down, and the fluttering branches of the leaves buried Tucci's figure.
