Chapter 43: The Temple of Sunon

The camp in Noxus was as spectacular as ever, with well-trained soldiers, each with two black wings carved into their shoulder armor, which was the insignia of the Black Feather Legion.

Svein's tent was easily recognizable, a huge tent in the middle, heavily guarded around it, and a few crows landed on the top of the tent, and from time to time they made a piercing cry, like an old fortress.

I expected there to be a lot of people in the tent, but it was just Svein himself, who was not wearing military armor, but just a trench coat with gray hair and a book in his hand.

The two soldiers who escorted me briefly explained the situation to him and went out, and there were only two of us left in the huge tent, which was obviously very spacious, but it made me feel inconvenient and depressed.

Svein didn't speak at first, and after continuing to read the book for a while, he slowly raised his head, and I found that not only was his hair much grayer, but also had a lot more wrinkles on his face than before, and his eyes were still the same, like frost and electricity, like endless nights, and he had aged a lot in the past five years.

"You don't look like you're here to assassinate me, I don't know why?"

"General Svein, we may not know each other, but I think you should remember me, because I followed General Darius and helped him carry out a coup d'Γ©tat."

Hearing this, Svein's eyes became more and more cold, and he stared at me closely, and thought carefully for a while, as if he did not have an impression:

"You followed Darius?"

"That's right, Zhao Xin, I don't know if the general remembers?"

Hearing my words, Svein showed an intriguing smile:

"Of course I remember, there were only seven people who fought to the end at that time, and six of them successfully escaped, and the one left behind was Zhao Xin, but it was not you, six years is enough to change a person's appearance, but it is impossible to change a person's essence, you don't have a shadow of Zhao Xin, except that you are all Ionians."

I don't know how to explain it, because I have indeed completely changed, except for memory, if I can't make him believe that I am Zhao Xin, then the following rhetoric is meaningless, it's a pity that Darius is not here, otherwise he can make him believe it if he says anything about it, and I am at a loss, I suddenly remembered a person.

"I have a way to make you believe me, because I know the details, as you said, in the end we fought until there were only seven men left, you and Darius, Cree, Delevingne, Tyrone, Caterina and Zhao Xin, it was General Cree who covered your escape, right?"

After saying that, I looked at Svein, and he suddenly laughed: "Hehe, it's not a secret, people outside the execution ground have seen us, and any of them can tell you who we are." ”

"No, I'm not talking about the identities of these seven people, but the other one, in addition to a few of us, there are two more people who survived, Darkwell and a mysterious witch, we failed precisely because that witch was too powerful, and I was left behind because I knew her identity."

Svein's smile froze suddenly, then he stood up, limped over to me, and put his ear to my mouth with interest, presumably trying to silence me.

"She's LeBlanc."

The answer sounded like a bomb in his ears, and Svein, who had always been calm, suddenly took several steps back, and almost fell, I had never seen him so panicked that day.

"I don't know if what you said is true or not, because I don't know her true identity, I only know that she is the leader of the Black Rose, as for you saying that she is LeBlanc, I don't know where you heard this name, I can't believe you, but you are really not simple, it doesn't matter if you are Zhao Xin or not, explain the purpose of your coming here."

It took a lot of effort to finally make sense, although he still didn't believe that I was Zhao Xin, but at least he already valued me, so that if I said it, he could consider that Svein was really much more difficult to speak than Darius.

"I'm here to settle this dispute peacefully, I've heard of your ambition to unite the forces of the entire Runeterras to deal with the challenges that may come, I think the way to unite is not only the means of war, but also the way to solve the problem is to talk."

"Your idea is good, but often this seemingly beautiful way does not work, although it was not my intention to invade here last time, but the war has begun, the hatred has been settled, and now it is impossible to settle it peacefully, and it is even more difficult to convince the scattered Ionians than to conquer them."

"Then you think the war will be solved? In addition to this, there are also the growing power of Demacia, the unknown Freljord, the dangerous Shurima, Bilgewater, the Shadow Isle, and many other places, although Noxus is powerful, it is difficult to unify these places. ”

"Hardship and hardship, since I am determined to overthrow Noxus, how can I retreat in the face of difficulties? Now that you understand my long-cherished wish and the cruelty of war, I hope that you will go back and persuade them to surrender, and I promise that those who obey will not fear for their lives. ”

"I will go back and persuade them, even if they are guilty, but I also hope that the general will consider what I said, war will only breed hatred, not real unity."

I'm not a lobbyist, and I don't even think Svein's words make sense, so that's the end of it, but I don't want to see war, which is always the greatest scourge in the world and here.

I also asked him how he managed to take control of Noxus, but he didn't elaborate, but only replied that the wheels of history were moving in my direction.

The men who escorted me out of the camp were the two men who escorted me in, and they could not believe that an enemy could leave unharmed, and that it was the order of the commander.

Svein's will is obviously unshakable, so I can only go back and test the people of Ionia, and to be honest, I don't have much hope, who will give away their homeland for nothing? Svein said that if he didn't kill his obedience, no one would believe him.

Back at the Temple of Sunon, this time I went in, and as I expected, the frescoes inside were exactly the same as in my dream, there were a lot of people in them, and two people I knew: Karma and Irelia.

I know that Karma is the Apocalypse, and it seems that she is the one who succeeded the Western Apocalypse who died last time, and as for the knife girl, I remember that Soma said that she was also a shepherd, and she had a lot of credit in the last war, but I don't know which shepherd she is.
