Chapter 285: Shurima's Travels
The Boat of Dawn, a large river that traverses the east and west of Shurima, originates from the vast snow-capped mountains of the Giant God Peak mountain range on the south side of the Nairima.
The snow-capped mountains melted from the eastern desert and formed streams in the mountains, and finally converged into a large river next to the city of Neremaji, all the way east, to the ancient jungle and then to the Sea of Watchmen.
It was now the third day after the group left Nerima, and under the leadership of Salha, Xiao Yuebai and the three girls followed the Boat of Dawn all the way east, heading to their destination this time, the Sun Disk.
Under the clear blue sky, in the wide boat of dawn, the clear blue river flows leisurely.
"It is said that thousands of years ago in the Land of Runeterra, when the Sun Empire was gradually declining, the Emperor at that time had a prince who did not like him very much, and his name was Azir."
“.......。”
After decades of friendship, he never thought that the person he trusted the most would betray him. As he lay dying, Azir looked at the collapsing disc of the sun, and the sinister smile of his friend. ”
"After this incident, the empire has no leader, the ascended have begun to fall, and the Celestial warriors who have been corrupted by the void have turned into Darkspawn demons and walked in this world!"
Straddled on the back of a camel, Xiao Yuebai told a story that happened thousands of years ago, the last glory of the Shurima Empire.
In this twist and turn of the story, whether it is the angel sisters, or the elven princesses, and even the thieves who have been tamed, they are all immersed in the empire that once carried out the will throughout the land of Runeterra a thousand years ago.
Keisha slumped into the man's chest, and after listening to the story, he did not arbitrarily point out who was right and who was wrong as before, but straightened up, glanced at the cold ice in front, and then said faintly:
"Sometimes a misunderstanding is really terrible, like Azir and Zelas. One because he couldn't say it, and the other because he didn't understand it, so the final result was the collapse of the empire that was glorious again. ”
"And our civilization has already set foot in the universe galaxy, this huge force is intricate, in case a misunderstanding and delusion leads to a mistake in judgment, then there will be billions of people who have lost their lives for this misunderstanding."
Liang Bing, who was on the camel in front of him, turned his head when he heard this, and looked at Keisha and rolled his eyes, and the tsundere just pouted, and after looking at Keisha with a complicated look, she turned her head and continued to move forward.
Seeing this, Keisha blinked suspiciously, so she had to look up at her man.
Seeing the silent interaction between the two sisters, Xiao Yuebai smiled and explained in the queen's ear: "It's okay, your sister is just too arrogant." ”
Blinking her eyes, Keisha thought carefully for a moment and suddenly realized, then sighed and leaned her body against the man again.
......
On the seventh day after leaving Nerema, the group finally crossed the first tributary of the Auroville Boat and entered the endless plains on the west side of the solar disk.
In the seemingly endless desert, there are many new figures, tall Skalash and many giant beasts, wandering in twos and threes in the golden desert.
These two large creatures, which are seven or eight meters tall, are unique to the desert of Shurima, and they were domesticated by the Shurima people for people to walk and live in the desert.
At this moment, several giant beasts were standing side by side on the other side of the river, the huge head of the beast was bowing its head to drink, and on its body, there were houses.
They were fastened to the beast by several huge ropes, and several humans were carrying hook-like tools on the ropes, constantly shuttling around the ropes to drive away the moss and parasites.
Although there were records about this kind of giant beast in "League of Legends Universe" before crossing over, when he actually saw this kind of giant beast, it still brought a visual impact to Xiao Yuebai.
Salha, who had been in front, saw several nobles behind him looking at the multi-full giant beast on the opposite bank, and understood that they were interested in the giant beast.
So with a flick of the reins in his hand, he controlled the camel to take a few steps behind and came to Xiao Yuebai's side, telling these people about the customs and creatures in this desert.
Although some of the things Salha said were known to Xiao Yuebai, there were many more things that were not recorded in the League of Legends Universe.
Like some of Shurima's current civilian distribution, humanistic customs, and all kinds of small details, Xiao Yuebai and the others have learned from this thief's story.
After camping and resting that night, when the four of them got together to chat, Liang Bing couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect Salha to know so much!" ”
"I feel like if it weren't for the rampant banditry in this desert, and the tribes are full of tribes. He must be able to develop well, and maybe he can become an ascender! ”
And Xiao Yuebai originally didn't believe that Salha's object of worship was Nasus, but at this time, he couldn't help but change his opinion of him, nodded and said:
"Indeed, as the god of wisdom of the ancient Shurima Sun Empire, Nasus's followers cannot be the kind of reckless man whose head is full of muscles."
"Now he has proved to us with his knowledge and his personality that he is indeed a man of brains."
"He can find his position at any time, and he can also understand the various human details of Shurima, if the Sun Empire is still there, he may really be able to become an ascendant as Liang Bing said."
After Xiao Yuebai finished this topic, everyone chatted about what they had seen and felt for a few days, and then they all returned to their tents to rest.
......
On the evening of the 19th day of departure from Nairima, the river of the Dawnboat became wider, indicating that the flow of water had become very large.
As the last of the red glow fell into the horizon behind everyone, the temperature of the entire desert surface began to drop rapidly.
Perhaps because of the abundance of water in the Dawnboat at this stage, the humidity in the air began to increase rapidly.
Turning over a towering sand dune, a dazzling light shot from the far east, and Xiao Yuebai and the others, who were not prepared at all, subconsciously raised their hands to cover their eyes.
When the light gradually dimmed, everyone, including the bandits, stood at the top of the sand dune and looked at the source of the light.
And Salha jumped directly from his camel, led his men, lined up neatly, and then knelt down on his knees to the light source.
Listening to them finally recite the language they didn't understand, Xiao Yuebai frowned and looked at the golden "sun" in the sky.
Although Xiao Yuebai was already very sure in his heart, he still waited for Salha to finish praying with his subordinates before asking:
"That's ...... Solar disk? ”
Salha looked at the bright yellow light reflected at the end of the horizon, her tone was full of pride, and she nodded very confidently and replied:
"Yes, Lord Xiao. It is the capital of our ancient Sun Empire, the place of the Ascension of the Ascended Generations, the Sun Disk! ”
The bandit's words made the four people who saw such a scene for the first time gasp, and Liang Bing exclaimed even more:
"Oh my God! This is the light reflected from the horizon, and it looks like the morning sun is about the same size here, so how big is his body? ”
The elven princess Galadriel couldn't help but nod in a daze, and then muttered, "Oh my God, it's difficult for even a god to do such a thing, right!?" ”
Looking at the surprised looks of the four nobles, Salha smiled and said to them, "Four nobles, let's hurry up and get on the road." ”
"It's not safe here, let's not rest tonight, let's try to enter the city tomorrow morning!"
Xiao Yuebai and the four of them actually don't need to sleep, and they usually rest just so that Salha and them don't have to work too hard, so when they heard Salha say this, the four of them also climbed on the camel again and followed them towards the solar disk.
