Chapter 1258: How did the Tai Mei come to be?
It's hard to say whether there was anger in Sivir's contempt for the Uzersβshe herself denied it, but to Rhode's ears, her vulgar words were clearly filled with anger.
Having said that, the people of Uzeris are really full of X., and Rhodes doesn't quite understand why they think that Noxus can bring them wealth, beauty and freedom, your wealth comes from the Uzelis salt drying field, from the best-selling Uzeris refined salt, and if you want to be rich, you don't want to increase production and open up trade routes, but count on Noxus......
It deserves to be made like this.
Seeing that Sivir still had a tendency to refuse to communicate, Rhodes wisely didn't say anything, just walked with her in the shadows of the streets of Uzeris.
The city now has no trace of what it once was, with buildings littered with unrepaired and unmaintained buildings and rubbish everywhere β even though it's still bright, Rhodes and Sivir are surrounded by ill-intentioned people as they walk the streets.
Rhodes had no doubt that if it weren't for the fact that Sivir looked physically strong and dressed with obvious spellcaster traits, those who fiddled with short weapons in the corners would have been happy to make a little extra money.
The smell of trash and unidentified potions was so pungent that Rhodes had to use arcane tricks frequently to make his nose more comfortable - and when his spellcasting was recognized, the ill-intentioned ones quickly dispersed and were replaced by a new group of people with ulterior motives.
These people began to try to sell Rhodes some "pleasant" alchemy products, and some even hinted at Sivir to Rhodes and smiled meaninglessly.
(Of course, those who did so ended up smashed into the wall, the kind that couldn't be dug up - according to Sivir, the blood of the scum was not worth touching on their weapons.) οΌ
"The city is hopeless." Following the guidance of the little spider, Rhode's tone was full of inexplicable meaning, "The methods of the Noxians are very clever, crime and chaos are the strongest invisible walls, such an Uzerys, even if Shurima can really take it back, I am afraid it can only be a city that constantly sucks blood...... It's a pity. β
"There's nothing to be sorry for." Sivir's tone was still mean and ruthless, "The path you choose, even if you climb on your knees, you have to finish it." β
"You really have a problem with Uzeris." Rod smiled, "Looks ...... There seems to be some story between you and the city? β
"My mother is only in her twenties this year." Sivir was still clearly reluctant to talk to Rod, "Don't say it's like I'm an old - I just don't like the city." β
"Everyone has to pay for their own growth." Rhodes looked like he understood you very well, "Actually, even if you are an old driver, there is a good chance that your car will overturn in a place like Uzeris......"
"Poor agitation." Sivir wasn't fooled, "I didn't make any more trouble with Uzerys, the city looks like a mess, it seems to be very deep, but everyone knows that it's just a superficial phenomenon, and where the real water is deep, there are undercurrents, like quicksand that never piles up into huge dunes." β
"Then, Your Majesty Sivir." Rod also relaxed his tone and teased, "Tell me, what made Uzeris make such a bad impression on you?" I could even wipe out the city entirely, if I needed toβas an addition to our deal, you should know about the previous events in Nerima, and the spell of the Flame Glass wasn't too difficult......"
"Noβ"
Sivir subconsciously spoke, but then realized that this was a deliberate verbal trap for Rod to test himself - Sivir, who sensed that he had fallen into the trap, glared at Rod angrily, and then threw the Calikar behind him.
The cross blade slashed a perfect arc in mid-air, and the two perverts who had just stunned a pickpocket girl with the help of alchemy potions were directly cut off.
Sensing Sivir's wrath, Rhodes naturally unleashed a clean-up for her weapon.
"You're really that interested in the old days?" Sivir turned to stare at Rhodes with a smile on his face, "To be honest, I really don't understand sometimes why you are so powerful, why do you stare at so many strange places and people...... I don't even understand, why are you XXX following me? β
"You don't need to know." Rod's tone was tight, "Your task now is not to ask, but to answer." β
ββ¦β¦β
Under Rod's momentum, Sivir was clearly inferior, and she tried to resist, but in the end she could only sigh helplessly.
"Okay, okay, big guy who likes to listen to stories...... Now we need a place where we can speak well β it's a long story. β
In the end, Rod and Sivir entered a small hotel with the boss's ambiguous face - this guy was lucky, just smiling and not making any sales pitches, otherwise he would probably have been killed by the irascible Sivir.
In the small room, Sivir poured a large sip of absinthe and began to tell Rhodes about his relationship with Uzeris.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Sivir was born an orphan - although she was a royal descendant, this status did not bring her much privilege given Azir's misdeeds, and even her parents died at the hands of the Sand Pirates when she was a child.
At the time of the sand pirates, Sivir was hidden by his parents in the belly of a dead camel, and although he was orphaned, at least he was not reduced to slavery or worse......
And an orphan, in order to survive in Shurima, must either beg or steal - the unorganized Sivir obviously has to choose the latter.
Unfortunately, Sivir, the daughter of a merchant, had no skills in stealing, and after a few misses, she was almost killed in the bazaar - not because of the kindness of her captors, but because of ...... Merchants don't want to see dead people in the bazaar.
The dying Sivir is thrown into the city's gutter, and just as she is about to go to see Qianjue, Thumbs Thumb saves him.
Sivir still did not know the name of the thumb, she only knew that the thumb was a real habitual thief - although his left hand had four fingers cut off for theft, and only the thumb remained, he still had enough belongings with his right hand alone - and these possessions helped Sivir survive the most painful three years.
In the past three years, Sivir has also changed from a little princess in the family to a little sister in the bazaar.
And the bazaar ...... It refers to the bazaar of Uzerys.
