Chapter 32: Balanced Sects

After two days of walking in the previous direction, we finally saw the first town here, Presidium.

It's very prosperous, people from all walks of life come and go, and I even think it's more prosperous than the Silver City, but it's a little less orderly.

Whether it is Demacia or Noxus, there is no resemblance here, and the vast sea of conquest and the sea of watch make the cultural differences between the two sides very large.

The buildings here are not high, and a large part of them are churches, temples and monasteries of all kinds, where people wear loose robes, and everywhere you can see people giving speeches and discussing scholarship.

I don't understand why so much confusion in places that focus on academics, so what the hell are people learning? Or is freedom and chaos born out of necessity?

The Sect of Equilibrium is a very famous sect, and I thought it would be easy to find, but no matter how much I asked, no one would tell us the exact location.

It was very strange to me that most of them avoided the words "Balanced Sect" as soon as they heard me say it.

"You're looking for the Sect of Equilibrium?"

"Yes, you know what?"

I was pleasantly surprised to hear someone take the initiative to mention the Equilibrium Sect to me, but when I saw the person who spoke, I was suddenly a little disappointed, because this was a blind man, and even if he knew, how could he show me the way? But he really showed me the way:

"Although I can't see with my eyes, I can show you the way, if you walk ninety steps south from this street, you will see a college, and if you walk through the academy and go straight ninety steps, you will see a church, go to the godfather there, and say that the blind man asked you to come."

"Thank you, why won't anyone here tell me?"

"Because they cherish their lives."

"Cherish life? Will the Sect of Equilibrium kill the one who guides the way? "The blind man no longer pays attention to me, so why is he not afraid? I can't ask any of the rest of my questions.

But after walking a few steps, there was a sudden scream on the street, and when I looked back, the blind man who had just shown us the way had fallen to the ground and died, with a cut on his neck by a hidden weapon, and someone would really kill the guide!

"It's so chaotic here, it seems that Ionia is no better than Noxus." Poppy was unimpressed, but still next to Akali.

We came to the church that the blind man said, and saw that the walls of the church were carved with dragons, and I knocked on the door, and it was opened by a man in a red robe, and most of his face was covered by a collar, and the whole person was gloomy and very uncomfortable.

"It was the blind man who asked us to come, but he was killed." I said it directly.

"Don't worry, his life is meaningless, come in."

He was not at all surprised to hear the news that the blind man had been killed, nor did he ask who had killed him, not even the slightest mood swing.

When I got in, I was shocked, is this a dragon skeleton in the middle? The skeleton is as tall as the church, and the two wings extend right along the wall, as if the church was made for the skeleton.

"Is this the skeleton of a dragon?"

"A baby dragon, to be exact, it was only twelve years old when it died."

"You're the only one here?"

"Yes, this is the Dragon Hall, I am the godfather here, but no one has been baptized for a long time, and people have forgotten the fear of being dominated by dragons."

"Not everyone has forgotten them, there are so many living dragons in the southern jungles of Valoran, and I've seen two." Bobby added.

"Oh? It's a yodel, who are you, and why did the blind man let you come here? ”

"We inquired about the way to the Balanced Sect, but no one would tell me except him."

"Balanced Sect, that's a good place."

The Godfather in Red took a pen and paper and showed us the route while drawing the route on the paper, and I thought he was doing this too much at first, but when I actually looked for a place, I realized that I would never have been able to find it without this simple map.

The Sect of Equilibrium was in a very clever position, and after many corners I found the temple-like building, which was already on the outskirts of the city, with a few crooked words written on the low gate: Sect of Equilibrium.

At this point, Poppy suddenly said that there was something else to investigate, and asked me to go in first, leaving without waiting for me to ask her.

It's like a flask, it looks very small and inconspicuous when it is outside, but it is very spacious when you walk in, but there is no one in the courtyard, no, I feel that there are still many people, but they don't show up at all.

From the moment I entered, I felt that there were countless pairs of eyes staring at us, and it was very uncomfortable, but I couldn't find the specific location of these people.

Now that Poppy was gone, I was afraid that they would hurt Akali, so I quickly said, "Please don't get me wrong, we are not enemies, I have something important to say." ”

After hearing my words, two people appeared out of nowhere, saying that they were taking us to the master, and we followed them to a clearing.

In the middle of the clearing, there is a circular sculpture of three fish with their heads and tails together, and strangely enough, no matter which angle I look at, the sculpture faces me, as if it will turn.

"This is our emblem, carved from a rare illusion stone, it is the same from any angle, welcome to your arrival friend, I am the abbot of the Balance Sect, Shen."

Shen is a ninja with a mask in the game, but now he is wearing a loose robe and a very handsome face, which gives people a very friendly feeling, and the tension along the way has instantly eased a lot after meeting him.

"Hello Master Shen, my name is Zhao Xin, and I was asked to come to you."

"Who is it that you are asking me to do?"

I told Shen what happened in Yanglin Village, and also told the horror of Ember, I thought he would think about it, after all, a murderer like Ember is usually afraid to avoid it, but I didn't expect to agree as soon as I finished speaking:

"Please rest assured, we will not sit idly by and watch this kind of thing that violates the balance, Haishu and Tianshi, you each lead ten disciples to arrest the wicked, and you can't let him continue to disrupt the balance."

He confessed, and the two of them were immediately ordered to go.

I was about to hand over Akali to him by the way, when I suddenly thought of the conversation between Aranta and Zai, who had all left the Sect of Equilibrium.

I don't know the reason yet, but now I'm handing over Akali to him, in case Aranta is a defector, then isn't it hurting Akali? What's more, when you come here, it's foggy, so let's test your mouth first.

"Master Shen, when I first came to Presidium, I didn't know the way to get here, so I asked others, but no one would tell me, they seemed to be scared, and the only person who dared to say it was assassinated, what happened?"

"Alas, it was the people of the Shadow Stream who did it, in order to isolate the Balance Sect, they sent people to kill a lot of people who came to ask for help and people who wanted to join the sect, so that no one dares to mention this place now, and they are in the dark, we are in the light, this kind of thing is always difficult to guard against, please forgive me!"

Shen sighed, looking very helpless, I didn't expect the catastrophe to be such a scoundrel, for the Equilibrium Sect to this point, knowing this, the next thing to ask about Alanta is to ask, I can't ask directly, I can only push the side:

"It turned out to be a shadow streamer! To tell you the truth, I met two people before I came to Presidium, one was a killer in a straitjacket, and the other was a woman with a wound on her face, and from their conversation, I heard that the killer was the Shadow Streamer, as if it was called Robbery, and the woman's name was Aranta, I don't know ......"

Speaking of this, I looked at Shen, and his expression suddenly became serious, and the anger on his face increased a lot.
