Chapter 89: The Spirit of Ionia

Presidium has long been regarded as the sacred place of Ionia, and its status is similar to that of the immortal fortress of Noxus. It's just that as a civilized country, Precidian does not have the strong fortifications and guards of the immortal fortress.

The beliefs of the inhabitants of Ionia are as complex as their race, but regardless of their faith, they have the same respect and reverence for Precise, and many people come to the church from all over the world every year to pray for blessings.

It is precisely because of this that in addition to its great symbolic significance, Precidian has slowly developed into one of the few prosperous cities in the world.

The war also had a great impact on Precidian, especially as the Noxian army approached the area, and many of the inhabitants chose to evacuate to safer places in the east; The rest joined the Resistance stationed in Presidian, vowing to fight the Noxus to the death.

Preparations for war were in full swing in the city, and dozens of trenches of varying depths were dug in the wide streets, which were filled with various traps made by the inhabitants; Earthen walls and obstacles have been piled up in the alleys of the alleys, which will greatly slow down the advance of the troops; The residents are moving all the supplies from their homes to the Resistance's temporary command in the city, and they are being deployed.

Irelia, the leader of the Resistance, and a woman dressed in green were patrolling the city, and Irelia carefully avoided a rather inconspicuous mousetrap at her feet, and said to the woman in green:

"Karma, judging from everyone's cohesion now, it is not impossible for us to defeat the Noxus army here, and I have been waiting for this day for a long time."

Karma stretched out her hands, and two round discs glowing with a pale green light appeared in her hands, and she focused her attention on the pile of obstacles in front of her that were being moved by three or four people, and the obstacles quickly flew into the air under the stunned gazes of several people, and then landed where it was supposed to go:

"yes, after all this experience, we're finally here together."

Although Ionia does not have any fighting, this does not mean that there are no conflicts between their various factions, but most of the time, they will choose a more moderate way to solve them.

"But I really didn't expect you to come over, I always thought you were that kind of ...... You know...... ...... against the use of violence"

Karma is a lineage, she is the embodiment of an ancient Ionian soul in reality, and in the course of countless reincarnations, her soul continues to descend on the Ionians of different backgrounds and races, until their lives finally come to an end, and she will choose a great host again.

And now this woman was chosen to become Karma at the age of twelve, and before that, her name was Darha, and she was just a little girl from some remote tribe.

One night, she suddenly felt that her mind had many more images and sounds, and they were as if she had really experienced them, and the tribesmen did not understand what was happening to her, but only treated her as a little girl with mental problems.

Until one day, as a group of monks passed by the tribe's gate, Darha heard the sound of their conversation, which was exactly the same as the voice that had been echoing in his head all these days.

So she broke free from the restraints in the room and rushed to the monks, who had an irrepressible look of surprise on their faces when they saw Darha. They explained the reason to the people of the tribe and brought Darha back to the Temple of Eternity.

During her time there, Darha learns how to communicate with the mysterious souls in her body, and little by little she recovers her thousand-year-old memories, and in conversations with the ancient spirits, Darha gains power and eventually becomes the new Karma.

Karma continued to settle all sorts of disputes peacefully on the continent until the moment Noxus's army set foot on the land of Ionia, her faith quietly changed.

The army of Noxus would not listen to the so-called good words, and the inhabitants of Ionia who tried to dissuade them were killed as reactionaries or imprisoned, and no one could stop their advance, and soon large areas of western Ionia fell under their rule.

In the process, Karma experienced many scenes of pain and despair that made her feel painful and hopeless, and after another failed dissuasion, seeing the Ionian anti-war personnel slaughtered under the warship, Karma finally lost control, and burst out of her body with a huge amount of energy, and when she came to her senses again, there was already the corpse of a Noxian soldier in front of her.

When Karma returned to the Temple of Eternity covered in blood, the monks questioned her actions, and the monks who had stayed here did not know the attitude of the Noxian invaders, they had not seen the cruelty of the enemy, nor the blood of their compatriots. They simply stayed in the House of Eternity and told every Ionian who came that peaceful exhortations were the best way to solve the problem.

Looking at these pedantic monks, Karma sighed in disappointment and turned to leave the main hall, this is the reason why she came to Precidian, she was not willing to hide anymore, but chose to face these cruel enemies head-on with the rest of her compatriots:

"If things could change my will, I certainly wouldn't be here." Karma smiled wryly at Irelia.

Just then, a Resistance soldier ran up to Irelia, and Irelia's expression changed a few times, then she quickened her pace and arrived with Karma at the Resistance's temporary headquarters in Preciden.

Irelia walked into a small room in the back and closed the door to the room, where there was a pigeon. She grasped the pigeon in the palm of her hand, took a small roll of paper from its paws, and slowly unfolded it, looking through the faint light of the lit candle.

After reading this, Irelia placed the note on the flame of the candle, waited until it turned to ashes, turned her head, and said to Karma:

"The news from the 'Harrier Eagle' that the specific time for Svein's attack on Presidian has been determined, and we can prepare well now to give this stinky crow some unexpected surprises!"
