After Rhodes broke the stubbornness and arrogance in Yasuo's heart, Yasuo finally ushered in a self-breakthrough.

Swinging his sword to cut through one of Rod's fireballs, Yasuo stepped forward again and slashed.

Yasuo, who broke through again, corrected his mentality - even if I am not as good as you, it is not that the path of the wind is not good, it is just that my cultivation is insufficient!

And then...... He was knocked unconscious by a burst of inflammation from Rhodes.

After withstanding the impact of several fireballs in a row, Yasuo was at the end of his crossbow at this time, and he was all holding on in one breath.

Even if he made a breakthrough, he would not be able to resist defenselessly in the face of Safron's flames.

"This bastard needs to calm down - that, Raven come with me."

……………………

When Yasuo woke up, what he saw...... It is an unfamiliar ceiling.

Rhodes had already sorted out the spatial structure of his temporary stronghold, created a temporary teleportation point, and easily carried Yasuo back while he was unconscious.

There is no doubt that Yasuo, who woke up from a coma, has completely calmed down.

All the things that have happened before have been misunderstood, and ...... It's my own impulse.

Looking at Rod who was drinking tea, Yasuo struggled to get up.

"Awake?" Just as Yasuo was thinking about how to apologize, Rhodes turned around with a cup and a teapot, "Have a cup of tea?" I've heard that you Ionians are fond of tea. ”

Yasuo fruit tea, take a sip.

Top good tea - fragrant lips and teeth, endless aftertaste.

Looking at the corners of Yasuo's mouth that inadvertently curled, Rod smiled.

"It's okay, the taste is still stronger than that of a certain female man."

"Hmph." In the face of Rod's meaningful words, Raven, who was sitting on the side, snorted coldly, "Now that this bastard has woken up, can you tell me why he found me?" ”

"I just want to know if you killed Elder Trade Wind." Seeing Raven, Yasuo instinctively became vigilant, "I just want to know the truth." ”

"Elder Trade Winds?" Raven frowned, "Who?" I don't know. ”

"An Ionian elder, the elder of the Wind Dojo Guardian, is at the rear of the battlefield."

"Oh." Raven's eyes narrowed slightly, "I forgot—even if I remembered, why should I tell you?" ”

"What?!" Yasuo almost got up, "Don't you dare admit it?!" ”

"Huh." Facing the excited Yasuo, Ruiwen smiled slightly, "A clumsy provocation is as ridiculous as your clumsy swordsmanship." ”

"You ......" Yasuo took a deep breath, barely suppressing the desire to do it himself, "It turns out that Noxians are all like this, dare not do it." ”

"As I said, verbal provocations are pointless." Raven remained unmoved, "I'm not obligated to answer your questions. ”

“…… Because you don't want to face the past? Yasuo rubbed the hilt of his sword with his right hand, "Can't forget your heavy past?" ”

"I don't want you to evaluate my past."

Raven's tone remained unwavering, but Rhodes noticed that her chest was rising and falling faster, and it was clear that Raven was not as relaxed as she had said.

Yasuo and Raven's negotiations are at an impasse.

But Rhodes, who is on the side, looks quite interesting.

Truth be told, compared to Raven, Yasuo ...... It's still a little tender.

As Raven said, Yasuo didn't let her know all the chips - so the blind agitation seemed a bit of a mess.

As if aware of this, Yasuo decisively changed his mind.

"Why tell me, the reason is very simple - you are for Noxus, Rod can help you, and I can help Rod a little bit, this is a ...... Three-way trading. ”

Yasuo also felt obedient and directly pulled Rod in, saying that this is for you Noxus.

As for how for Noxus... Yasuo didn't know, and it didn't matter - anyway, according to Rod, his future battle was to fight Noxus.

Maybe it's an infighting.

Raven frowned after Yasuo brought up the reason "for Noxus", but didn't refute it.

When Yasuo was in a coma just now, Rod and Raven talked a lot.

About the past, present and future of Noxus.

Raven before her self-exile was an out-and-out radical, and if she had met Svein first, I'm afraid she would have become a brainless Svein fan like Darius, because their positions and political views naturally coincide - they both believe that fair play and making the best use of people are the most important qualities of Noxus, and they are also the most precious spirit of Noxus.

But after the banishment, Raven began to look at Noxus from a different angle.

Without the general's command, she revisits her country as a soldier, only to discover Noxus...... You can't just rely on fairness.

In other words, the current Noxus has gone wrong with fairness.

Here's an example.

Born in poverty, Raven has always regarded those who go with the flow and can't get ahead as the scum of the empire.

But after my banishment, she came to realize how lucky she was to be where she was now.

Raven's fighting talent is immensely strong, and she works hard enough to stand out from the crowd of soldiers - but Raven is not the only one who works hard, those who work hard but are not strong enough...... What to do?

Noxus's attitude towards this is to "make the best use of people", to manage logistics if you can't fight, to farm if you can't manage logistics, to farm if you can't farm, to build walls if you don't know how to raise animals - you always have something to use, right?

But Raven discovers that this is not the case.

In order to maintain its rule, Noxus had to maintain its expansion.

And in the expanding Noxus, the status of the soldier is always the highest - this is the result of "the extreme injustice to the individual" caused by the "fair people who make the best use of it." ”

Under the strict laws and the constant march of the Empire, the common people did not have the opportunity to choose their own destiny.

The value of human beings is certainly due to self-struggle, but it also depends on life opportunities - this is the wisdom that Raven realized after self-exile.

As for how to eliminate this "unfairness"...... Raven hadn't thought of it yet.

And the failure to figure this out also gave Rhodes the opportunity to brainwash - Rhodes told Raven that Noxus could not blindly expand, and that it must strengthen its internal affairs while expanding externally, and now Svein obviously does not pay attention to this.

Rhodes wasn't lying—but, as he himself once said, the superlative lie is part of the truth.

Of course, Svein will not stop the progress of the empire now, but that does not mean that it will never, war and peace have always been interdependent, and when Noxus expands to a certain extent, Svein may not change his strategy.

It's a pity that Rod didn't say the above words.

So...... Raven was fooled by Rhodes and joined the "Anti-Svein Project".

As a direct result, when Yasuo asked again, Raven gave her own answer.

"I didn't kill it, I was in the position of a commando throughout the Battle of Ionia and did not participate in assassinations."
