The Sun Disc is the name of both the name of a city and the name of the altar where the Ascension Ceremony takes place in the palace of the ancient Shurima in the center of the city.

Thousands of years ago in the Land of Runeterras, Emperor Azir was betrayed by his good brother, the slave-born Zeroth, due to a misunderstanding.

This city, which was the most dazzling city in the entire Runeterra, was also turned into a piece of yellow sand with the political change, and now thousands of years have passed, and the last emperor of the Sun Empire, Azir, has been resurrected under the call of flesh and blood.

After saving his own descendants, his selfless actions touched the ancient power that flowed through the Empire of Gushurima, thus allowing him to complete the unfinished ritual of thousands of years ago.

Now, the emperor who brought the Sun Empire from decline to prosperity is resurrected here, and the power of the Ascended One has rebuilt the former capital.

It has brought hope to the Shurima people who are now scattered in this desert in the form of tribes, and the pride hidden in the hearts of Shurima people, making them eager to end this low-end nomadic civilization and return their motherland to that glorious era.

The western gate of the solar disk, with countless camels, skarashes and multi-manchu beasts, carry the hope of the Shurima people to step into this magnificent city.

When the dawn of the morning broke free from the shackles of the horizon and the sun sprinkled its scorching heat on the continent, Salha led Xiao Yuebai and his thieves to the bridge on the west side of the solar disk.

At the head of the bridge, two groups of soldiers stood motionless with their spears in hand. When he got closer, Liang Bing seemed to sense something, and asked with a frown, "Sand?" ”

When she found that everyone's eyes were on her, Liang Bing raised her hand and pointed to the soldier at the bridge and explained:

"The soldiers were made of sand, and they were magically condensed together to change the structure of the microscopic particles, giving them a strength no less than that of metal."

When Liang Bing said this, he suddenly looked into the distance, looked at the end of the bridge, and muttered to the complex located under the altar of the Sun Disk:

"I can still feel that the people who control these soldiers are there!"

Hearing this, Salha seemed to think of something, and hurriedly came to Xiao Yuebai's side and said, "Several adults, these soldiers should have been condensed by His Majesty the Emperor with magic. ”

"But people of my status are not allowed to pass here, I think a few of you should go down the stairway next to me first, I want to think of other ways to help a few people see Your Majesty!"

Xiao Yuebai thought for a while, then turned his head to look at Liang Bing and asked, "Do you think what these sand soldiers see can be fed back into the eyes of the spellcaster?" ”

Hearing this, Liang Bing stared at those soldiers carefully for a while, then nodded and said, "It should be possible, these soldiers were created by mages, since he can create, there is no reason why he can't control their senses." ”

"That's good!" The corners of Xiao Yuebai's mouth curled, then he turned his head to Salha and said, "Maybe we have a way, we can see Azir directly." ”

With that, under the surprised gaze of a few Shurima people, he walked in the direction of the sand soldiers.

When Xiao Yuebai was still 5 meters away from the soldiers, as if some switch had been pressed, these soldiers collectively picked up their spears and turned to face Xiao Yuebai, and put on a posture of being ready to attack at any time.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuebai smiled slightly, took out the Darkspawn giant sword from behind his back and poked it heavily in front of him, and then said loudly: "Azir, I've been sleeping for thousands of years, do you remember this sword?" ”

As the words fell, the entire vicinity of the bridge fell silent, and the soldiers were still holding their spears, but their empty eyes seemed to be staring at the "incoming enemy" with endless might.

It wasn't until half an hour later, on the ground not far in front of Xiao Yuebai, the yellow sand began to flow, they were driven by magic, condensed into a human form, and as the sand solidified, a "person" with eagle head and bird legs appeared there.

He took two steps forward and came to Xiao Yuebai, two yellow rays of light lit up in the part of the eagle's eye, and after carefully looking at the giant sword for a long time, it turned into a pile of yellow sand and scattered on the ground again.

At this time, the soldiers in the distance also put away their spears and stood straight again at the head of the bridge, while two of them held the spears in one hand and raised the other hand, pointed in the direction of the bridge, and then took the lead.

In this way, Azir in the palace and Xiao Yuebai outside the city completed the first negotiation, Xiao Yuebai turned his head and beckoned to Kaisha and the others, and then followed the guidance of the soldiers to step on the bridge.

The crowd followed the two soldiers on the straight bridge deck for nearly half an hour before entering the center of the solar disk.

There was nothing to say all the way, and everyone just looked at the disk of the sun made of pure gold above their heads, which had towered into the clouds, and looked at the symbol of the sun engraved on it.

As he walked, Liang Bing suddenly turned his head to Salha behind him and asked, "Hey! Didn't your ancient empire worship the sun? Why is there a four-pointed star on the inscription of the sun? ”

Liang Bing's question made Salha stunned for a moment, because he didn't know the answer either, after all, the Sun Empire was thousands of years ago, and many details had disappeared in the long river of time.

People like him who can know the history of Nasus and the ancient Shurima Empire are not too few in this desert today, but there are definitely not many of them.

And no one knew about this kind of detail, so after thinking about it carefully, he had to look at Liang Bing with a face full of embarrassment.

Xiao Yuebai, who was walking in front of Kaisha, turned around and smiled at this time, and said to Liang Bing: "That's Calikar, the weapon of the first empress of the Gushurima Empire, Setaka. ”

After Xiao Yuebai said this, Kaisha and the Liangbing sisters didn't feel strange, after all, Boss Xiao traveled through the world he was in before, and he created the worlds of these many dimensional universes, so it was not strange for him to know some secrets.

But the others who didn't know about it were surprised, and Salha even scratched the greasy hair on the top of his head and asked:

"Who is Sertaka?"

Without answering him, Xiao Yuebai just smiled, and then everyone continued to follow the soldiers towards the altar under the solar disk.

Although the bridge they had walked on was long, it was still much shorter than in the center of the city, and they walked for another hour and a half before they came to the bottom of a high staircase.

When the soldiers who led the way turned into their essence, a pile of yellow sand scattered in the wind, Xiao Yuebai and the others realized that the person they were looking for was on the top of this step.

Looking at the soldiers on both sides of the stairs who were still made of grit condensed by magic, Xiao Yuebai adjusted the giant sword behind him and raised his leg to take the first step on this staircase.

The three daughters, Kesha, Liangbing, and Galadriel, followed the man's footsteps, but when Salha and his men were about to step up the steps.

The soldiers on either side suddenly moved, and they pointed their spears at the thieves, warning those who tried to step on the steps.

When the Shurima saw the soldier's movements, they immediately withdrew their legs as if they were frightened dogs, and then quickly crawled to the ground.

As the leader, Salha put his head on the ground in shock, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I am a servant of Lord Nasus, please forgive me for my trespassing." ”

Xiao Yuebai, who had just finished a third of the stairs, turned around, watching all this happen with a little pity in their eyes, but they didn't make a sound.

Until a heavy snort came from overhead, and then a very magnetic and very sustained voice resounded throughout the sky:

"Distinguished guests from afar, please climb the steps to meet me, and I am waiting for the heroic return of our Ascended Ones under this solar disk!"
