Chapter 485: Verus
At noon that day, in the hall of Shurima.
"Honey, is that our son?"
"It should ...... Right? ”
"But why is he so good with that elf?"
In the hall, Xiao Yuebai and Kaisha sat on one side of the stone table, looking at the scene in the opposite room, where their son sat on the bed and teased the golden eagle with the elf princess.
Seeing the sullen look on her husband's face, Kaisha suddenly remembered something, and then chuckled and said to Xiao Yuebai: "I think you haven't been able to get a gift from Galadriel!" ”
"Of course, the child is our baby, and I want to touch our son if there is no benefit...!"
Halfway through speaking, Xiao Yuebai suddenly found that his wife was looking at him with a strange expression, so he hurriedly opened his mouth again to change the topic:
"By the way, you're going to leave with her and the baby in a while, right? How to get there? Do you walk over normally, or do you just fly over? ”
When Keisha heard this, she no longer bothered about her husband's little habits, but turned her head to look at the two people in the room and said:
"I asked her, this elf learned some magic from Soraka, so she can fly with me with the child."
After receiving the reply that his wife could fly directly across the desert, Xiao Yuebai nodded and continued: "Okay, you two will go over first and wait for me at Irelia's house." ”
"After I finish helping Azir deal with the affairs of Verus, I will go over to you immediately, it shouldn't take long."
After the couple finished discussing, Keisha beckoned Galadriel and the two to take protective measures for the child, and flew directly into the sky, flying towards Ionia in the northeast.
After seeing his wife and children disappear from his field of vision, Xiao Yuebai left the guest hall and walked straight to the palace where Azir was.
When Xiao Yuebai arrived there, the emperor of Shurima was dealing with the government affairs reported by all parties.
For Azir, he hadn't been idle since the end of the Great War in Runeterra to mention the city-building plans of Uzeris and Bergunne, which the north had recaptured from the Noxian Empire.
The sheer stretch of land from Vikora, which had been shattered by the last war, to the southeast of the Acacia Peninsula was enough for Azir to have a headache.
Add to that the various infrastructure technologies that Azir has brought in from the members of the Alliance of Truth, and he has even more to consider.
However, a year after the end of the war, Azir's governance was not without some effect, such as the five cities in the north from Karamanda in the west to the northern coastline of Berguen in the east, all of which had begun to modernize and build a permanent defensive offensive against the Noxian Empire.
And thanks to Shurimana's unimaginable gold reserves, Azir even brought in the construction of shipyards on Earth, and began to build a shipyard for steel warships in the northern port of Nashram.
Before coming to the Land of Runeterra, Xiao Yuebai heard Peggy tell him that Azir had bought back the destroyers, cruisers, and battleships from World War II, which had been obsolete on Earth.
So when Xiao Yuebai saw this Azir who was immersed in his work, he also had to admire his courage and ability to accept new things, I am afraid that in the entire Runetera land, except for Svein, no one can stand out.
When Xiao Yuebai was close to Azir's throne, the emperor seemed to sense the arrival of outsiders, and when he looked up, he found that it was actually Xiao Yuebai.
The Shurima Emperor hurriedly got up and walked down the high steps, came to Xiao Yuebai and said politely: "It turned out that Mr. Xiao was here, sorry for being a little too serious about handling some things just now." ”
"It's okay, Your Majesty Azir, it's an honor for Shurima to have you in this empire!" Xiao Yuebai owed a debt and said to Azir seriously.
After bowing his head in return, Azir looked down at Xiao Yuebai and said, "Mr. Xiao praised it falsely, I just did what I should do." ”
Speaking of which, Azir ended the greeting between the two, and then said to Xiao Yuebai: "I just felt that the alliance leader has left, and I think Mr. Xiao is planning to help me find Veruas?" ”
"Uh-huh!" Spreading out his hands and shrugging his shoulders, Xiao Yuebai sat on a high-backed rock chair and continued under Azir's signal:
"That's right, I came to you to learn some information before I left, and I can only act if I am prepared, isn't it?!"
In fact, Xiao Yuebai still knows about Verus, and there is a comic on the official website of "League of Legends Universe", which is dedicated to telling the story of Verus.
He was an extremely loyal Shurima warrior who was appreciated by the first Queen of Ascension, thus giving him the opportunity to become an Ascended One.
He was later sent to Ionia, where he was in a temple in the newborn land, to guard an extremely important magical relic.
Even in the Void War that broke out on the Acacia Peninsula that broke out next, the higher-ups of Shurima did not transfer him back to support the battlefield.
His eventual fall into the Darkspawn came after the conflict between Azir and Zelas led to the fall of the Shurima Empire.
The collapse of the Ancient Sun Empire had dealt a great mental blow to the Ascended Ones, and as one of Shurima's most loyal warriors, Verus was in a state of turmoil when he learned the news of the collapse of the Empire.
Eventually, he became what the people called the Darkborn, and was sealed away in a temple in the Newborn Lands.
Thousands of years later, it wasn't until the outbreak of the Noxian invasion of Ionia that the once most loyal warrior of the gods had a chance to see the light of day.
The reason is that two Ionian homosexuals, one named Valmao, inadvertently unlocked Verus's Darkspawn seal in order to save the dying Kaye, and then allowed Verus to fuse the two flesh bodies to obtain the Darkspawn body.
However, Verus, who had gained the flesh, did not gain the hypocritical freedom like Aatrox, but defeated the army of Noxus under the influence of the souls of Valmao and Kaye that had not yet completely disintegrated.
At the end of the manga, Verus, who is haunted by the spirits of Valmao and Kaye, is chasing his lost memories and preparing to go to Shurima.
Now Azir has asked himself to help purify Verus, and as described in the comics, he has come to Shurima.
But where he went after he came to Shurima and what happened, but he didn't explain, what Xiao Yuebai wanted to know from Azir was this information.
However, after the two talked for a long time, His Majesty the Emperor Xiao Yuebai didn't give him any information worth paying attention to, he only told himself.
After receiving the news of the suspected appearance of the Darkspawn, Azir immediately sent Renekton and Nasus out to find the traces of the Darkborn.
Judging from the news that Nasus had sent back before, the Darkspawn had a bow and arrow in his hand, and Azir was sure that the identity of the Darkborn was Verus.
The last place he had appeared from now was in Zerima on the northern side of the Southern Range of Shurima, which was the gentle place at the eastern foot of the Giant God Peak Mountain Range and the main route of the coastline north into the desert.
So Azir wanted Xiao Yuebai to go there to find Nasus and Renekton, and then the three of them would go together to find the whereabouts of Verus.
