Although the attack was like thunder, Rhode's purpose was not to kill, so Azir's guards looked a little miserable, but in fact they were not harmed by anything substantial - the cold freeze would cause them to fall into a temporary stagnation, coupled with the stagnation of time, although Azir's guards were stagnant in consciousness and frozen, they could recover as long as they thawed.

It's a pity that Azir apparently didn't know this.

In Azir's mind, freezing people into ice mounds is actually the same as killing people, so in the face of Rod, he looks quite hysterical.

"You have what it takes...... Rush at me! ”

"Affecting mortals, and vainly claiming to be the new Shurima Emperor?"

"Let them go, we're one-on-one."

Azil's attitude made Rhodes feel a little subtle, what was the sense of immediacy as if I was the villain?

I'll admit that I did use a little trick and a little trivial plan, but Shurima's development is also real - otherwise do you think that the Law of Ascension will agree that I am the key to Shurima's revival?

It's a pity that although Rhodes wants to educate Azir well, seeing that this product has a tendency to develop towards the Darkborn, he has no choice but to temporarily let go of those guards, and then trigger the arcane force field to throw them away.

"Now, can we have a good talk?" After confirming the safety of the guards, Rhodes even further loosened the restrictions on Azir, so that as long as he did not have the intention of attacking him, he would not be hit by the Law of Ascension, "About Shurima - if you really want it to be revived. ”

“…… What to talk about? The colic faded, and Azir crouched weakly on the ground, "Tell me how you deceived the Law of Ascension, using some false prosperity in the backcountry to gain the approval of the Law in order to blackmail me?" ”

"What did you say?" Azir's still arrogant attitude made Rhodes finally frown, "You still think that I can't really revive Shurima?" ”

"Of course!" Feeling the colic disappear completely, and the Ascendant's body regaining strength, Azir finally stood up, "You have never seen the glory of Shurima, so who are you to tell me about his revival?" ”

"The glory of Shurima?"

"In the light of the sun's disk, the desert is full of oases." Azir raised his staff, and the yellow sand changed into desert cities with his gestures, "There is great music, great sculpture, great literature, and the endless stream of merchants on the trade routes between the cities is like the blood in the veins of this great country, spreading the glory of the empire to every corner, and all the people reverently praise the sun and praise the emperor of Shurima." ”

"And then?"

"And then?" Azir raised an eyebrow, as if he thought Rhodes was stunned by his description, "Then the Solar Academy is open to everyone, and anyone with talent can learn and practice here, and in the same way, anyone who violates the law will receive a fair trial." ”

"But I've always been curious." Rod blinked with interest, "What did the Shurima people eat during your ancient Shurima Empire?" ”

"What to eat?!"

Azir was stunned for a moment by this seemingly unquestionable question, he didn't expect Rhodes to ask such a meaningless question, and he glanced at Rod with disdain, and he naturally opened his mouth to give his answer.

"Your barren brain may not have imagined how developed Shurima's animal husbandry was when the desert was full of oases, and meat was not such a luxury for the Shurima people as it is now......"

"yes, that's interesting." As if he had gotten the answer he wanted, Rhodes had a triumphant smile on his face, "However, as far as I know, during the period of the Ancient Shurima Empire, during the reign of the most prosperous Immortal King, the per capita annual meat consumption of Shurima was ...... More than 1,200 pounds of Shurima, less than a camel. ”

Shurima pounds are the weights and measures unified after the ancient Shurima conquered many regions, and more than 1,200 Shurima pounds are already more than a ton - in Valoran, which has extraordinary power, this number is not large, but it is not small either.

Hearing the number, Azir blinked.

More than 1,200...... It's a little higher than when I was in power, and it should be a similar number.

"That's right." Thinking of this, Azir nodded and acknowledged the information, "Each person per year, close to the meat of a camel." ”

"You know what?" Rod snapped his fingers, and a mocking smile appeared on his face, "According to last year's statistics, the per capita meat consumption of Zaun Piltover in a year was 3,418 standard container barrels, which is about ...... Six thousand one hundred and fifty-two pounds. ”

“！！！”

"That is to say, it seems to you that Lady Zuan Piltover, who lives in the 'backcountry', has long since lived a life far beyond that of the ancient Shurima people—and this is without me taking into account the remnants of your slavery."
