Chapter 632: A Person's Journey (Part II)
"Where's the little girl?" Seeing Ax coming back alone, Hammerstone asked curiously.
"If you go, if you don't go, you're going to die." Aix's temper at this time was not very good, obviously he was fishing in troubled waters, but he didn't expect that he became bait, he was almost eaten, and he wouldn't have a good temper on anyone.
"It's a shame." Hammerstone said with a regretful face, making Ax suspect that this old guy is still a thief to Tina, but now that Tina is gone, Ax doesn't want to care, although this old guy is now in the same camp as him, but, maybe when it will turn back, it's better to be careful.
"So, now should we talk about our deal, the thing I promised you has been done, and your remuneration should also be paid." Hammerstone reached out and demanded his reward from Ax.
"Don't worry, I don't want someone to be so treacherous, I will definitely fulfill what I promised." Ax waved his hand and said impatiently: "It's just that the information is not on me now, and I can't run around with that thing all day, and when I return to Noxus, someone will send it to you." ”
"It doesn't seem easy for you to go back to Noxus now, because as far as I know, the combined forces of the Kumang Ancient Forest and the Storm Plains have reached the border of Shurima, and the Mogro Pass has also been blocked at this time, so it is more convenient to go to Noxus now than to take a detour to Shadow Island and go back by sea." Hammerstone reminded.
"It's really fast, I think, there must be those guardians in this." Aix stopped, this is not good news, the allies he just made have not yet received any benefits, and he has to help the other party fight, although he is also his own enemy, but, how to think about it feels awkward.
"Actually, there is another way to choose, from here to the Voodoo Lands, pass through Acacia, and then take the sea route back to Noxus, just in time to go back and see, I don't know how Elder Hulk is doing."
"Forsaken land? I'm not going there, and if you choose this path, we'll only be able to separate for a while. Hammerstone shook his head and said, obviously secretive about the abandoned land.
"What about you?" Aix looked at Maude Caesar and Yorick, and after one glance at each other, they shook their heads together, apparently not wanting to go there either.
"You don't seem to like it there?" Ax asked curiously, because when he was in Acacia, Ax had hardly seen an outsider, the only one, that is, Cassadine, but it only stayed for a short time, in the Valoran continent, that land seemed to have been deliberately forgotten by everyone, and even most people didn't know that there was such a land on the Valoran continent.
"It's not so much that I don't like it, it's that I'm afraid." Yorick obviously didn't have any strong baggage, and said directly: "It's a cursed land, even worse than the curse of ruin. Whoever has something to do with it there will have their fate entangled with it, and the more powerful the person, the closer the entanglement will be, so no one will want to go there if it is not necessary. ”
"Entangled in fate? Why didn't I feel it, and what would it be? It was the first time Ax had heard of this statement, and he couldn't help but be a little curious and worried.
"No matter whether you live or die, you will return there, the stronger the entanglement, the shorter the time to go back, and then, you will be bound there for the rest of your life, even if you become a ghost, you can't escape." Hammerstone was the first to explain, and Maudekaiser and Yorick nodded in agreement, agreeing with Hammerstone.
"So, none of the people in Acacia can leave Acacia?"
"Maybe, but not too long."
"What about those of us who came out? What will happen to me, Tina, Alice, and Mercedes? For the first time, Ax thought carefully about why only the four of them came out in the entire Acacia, and among them, Tina still ran out with him.
"It doesn't matter if you young people who are not strong don't have a strong strength, even if you come out for a long time, you won't be restrained, but you will eventually go back there, and this cannot be changed." Hammerstone affirmed.
"No wonder, all the people who come out are teenagers, it turns out that there is still this reason."
"Is there no solution?" After Ax asked this question, he knew that he was simply doing too much, and if there was a way, there would be no need to wait until now, after all, no one likes to be tied down in one place, and if there was a solution, this so-called curse would have been lifted long ago.
"You're supposed to be the special one, though." Hammerstone suddenly looked at Ax very curiously, as if he was looking at a work of art, but Ax felt a chill in his back, and he didn't know what this pervert was paying attention to.
"Your soul doesn't seem to belong to Acacia, or even to the Valoran continent, and for you, an outsider, there seems to be some confusion about how that land is handled."
"How?" Ax took a closer look at himself and saw that it wasn't any different.
"Didn't you notice that there were too many people coming out of Acacia this time? This time it seems to be four people, you don't count for the time being, the other three people seem to have been born there, which has never happened before, and even the number of times out of two people can be counted on one hand. ”
"That's because when Alice left Acacia, all the magical energy disappeared without a trace, and there was no difference from ordinary people, so it shouldn't be considered a place, and besides, Tina was still very weak at that time, maybe the two of them occupied a place?" Aix didn't have any confidence in saying it, because even he felt that this statement was full of loopholes.
"Looks like I have to go back." When Ax heard Hammerstone's explanation, not only was he not afraid, but he was even more curious, it turned out that the place where he came out was still hiding such a big secret, and he actually entered Baoshan but returned empty-handed.
"It's really a newborn calf that is not afraid of tigers!" Hammerstone said with a smile, but how to look at it in the smile makes people feel that there is a conspiracy.
"So, you're not going there anymore?" Ax looked at the others and saw that everyone was shaking their heads in unison, and knew that the next step would be to travel alone.
The next morning, after meeting with LeBlanc, Ax left Shurima alone, first heading towards the Land of Voodoo.
