'Arcane Leap', an adventurer from the progressive city of Piltover, perfectly seized the special moment when the sky was dark and the camp was in the middle of a change of movement, and with a little skill, he left the cabin where he was trapped. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Info Although it was impossible to trap itself in the first place, it was not wise to clash with dozens of soldiers, but at the moment, it seemed that these Demacians were not ordinary people, especially the 'chief' who caught him twice.

With his hands raised, he was escorted back to the camp and was treated with a very special treatment, except for a few southern Demacian peculiars, the horned sheep, who were treated in the same way: because he refused to give details of his escape, Gavin IV made the punishment that he had to stay by the campfire all night, within sight of all the posts.

So on one side was the horned sheep with a golden and attractive surface that was constantly roasting and sizzling on wooden sticks, and on the other side was a pittover adventurer with the same golden hair and frustration, and he was always accompanied by a soldier, and he completely lost the idea of escaping.

……

At the exit at the other end of the Hunter's Trail, the defeated Noxians did not find a sheltered place to rest until it was dark, and their strict discipline, long-lasting honor, and belief in the god of war kept their morale high.

Even though the ambush had been routed not long ago and suffered heavy losses, no soldier showed signs of despair at this time. Guards were still arranged, on duty, wounds were bandaged, and dinner was prepared, a starchy potato common in the area, which was easily cooked over a low fire to avoid exposing one's position to potential enemies.

With the mellow stream of water nearby, everyone silently ate a simple dinner in their hands, and Darius took the food baked by the soldiers, and walked to Caterina, who was sitting on the edge of the hilltop rock.

"Carter... Linna. I'm sorry. ”

"Excuse me? About what? ”

The moonlight shone obliquely on the side of Caterina's face, and the angle of the light was just right to hide the horrific wounds on her delicate face, whether it happened to be the case or on purpose.

Darius placed the baked potato next to Catalina, chose a stone on her side and sat down, before he said in a deep voice, "Sain, he has always been so valiant, we tried to kill this trap carefully laid by the enemy, but ......"

"What do you want to say? Anyone on the battlefield can be summoned by the gods. ”

Caterina's voice on the other side was joyful and sad, and it was impossible to hear the clues. Darius had heard rumors that the charismatic Caterina had many suitors among the officers, and the Imperial Warrior Sain was one of them. And I don't know which side of the road, Sain seems to have won the favor of the goddess in his heart, and the most outrageous rumors even say that they may be engaged. This made Darius feel the need to comfort Du, the most popular soldier in the Empire. The daughter of General Quekao, but Caterina's unclear answer made Darius suddenly uncertain about the gossip.

"Maybe. What do you know about the revelation of the operation? ”

"My father's intelligence source received a high-level secret report with the time of your departure, as well as the deployment of troops and mission objectives." Caterina said this, glancing sideways at Darius, her inquiring gaze flickering, and then she continued, "Two of the Empire's finest young officers have been betrayed. As soon as I got the news, I reported it to the High Command, and then I rushed to inform you that it was just in time for the battle. ”

"I see, it's funny, isn't it. About Sain's corpse ......"

"The warriors of the empire deserve the honor of being buried in their homeland."

"That's fine. I will guarantee that my brother will return to the bosom of the motherland. ”

……

But I didn't do anything at all!! The way back to Boulder Mountain became a bloody and tearful process for the aggrieved adventurer to constantly appeal to the Demacian officers. According to the civilian protection agreement signed between the two sides, until there is clear evidence, the Debon officers are forbidden to use food and drink or other inhumane means, so everyone can only choose to bypass.

Fortunately, three days later, the group finally returned to the city of Boulder Mountain, and according to the regulations, the soldiers of the southern border guards had to go to the nearby barracks. So the booty and prisoners of war were handed over to the royal Praetorian Guard, who had been waiting at the city gate for a long time, and the belated Praetorian Guard would be responsible for the security of Gavin IV until he returned to the capital city of Demacia.

"I said, you're going too far! You have illegally detained civilians from other countries, and I will definitely complain to the king of your country to the end! ”

"It's not for nothing, if you hadn't done something bad, what did you run that night? Okay, go in and stay well, if you dare to run away again, you will regret it! ”

The group will make a short stop at the city guard office, where Gavin IV will report the details and results of the ambush to local officials in accordance with the process. This has nothing to do with identity, because the prince is the supreme commander of the operation, and the chief Zhao Xin is of course on his side, and only Galen is responsible for dealing with the reckless adventurer. The trouble is that the governor Zhao Xin has privately confirmed the validity of this person's identity, and he himself is indeed very likely to be a civilian who was involved in the operation at that time, so he cannot be imprisoned, and can only find a suitable room in the official office for temporary accommodation.

"Brother! Finally found you! ”

A crisp and beautiful female voice sounded at the top of the staircase, with a touch of surprise.

"Lux? Mother Earth, why are you here, I mean, this is not your academy. ”

As soon as Galen closed the door, he heard the voice of Lux, who was supposed to study at Piltover Academy, and was very surprised, and turned around to see that it was indeed the naughty and cute little girl, and he couldn't help but raise his brows and smile.

"Hi, hi! How can you do that! It's unlawful detention, you know? Hi! Come back! ”

The poor adventurer lay on the visiting railing of the door of the detention room for misdemeanor offenders, and looked at the two figures that disappeared not far away, and was extremely angry! However, his anger was destined to dissipate in the air.

"Brother, who is that?"

Lux asked curiously, and it felt like the voice was a little familiar.

"It's just a soy sauce guy." Galen replied indifferently, then Jian frowned slightly, and asked suspiciously, "Lux, you don't study magic in the academy, how can you be in Boulder Mountain City?" ”

"Haha! Lux, the 54th graduating graduate of the Piltover Academy of Witchcraft and Wizardry, reports to Captain Galen, the prefect! Hearing Galen's question, the lively and lovely girl suddenly trotted forward two steps, quickly turned her slender body and stood upright, proudly announcing her achievements in a standard Demacian military posture.

"You've graduated? How long has this been? Two years and eight months? I knew that this academy was unreliable, and I would have prevented you from going to Piltover to learn some magic. ”

Galen couldn't believe that a famous academy of magic on the continent would dare to deceive Demacia's famous crown guard family in such a way.

"It's been two years and five months, and in fact I passed my graduation exam early at the end of the winter semester, and I haven't written to tell you just to surprise you! Haha, scared! Now you're in front of an official magician, Captain Galen. ”

"Finish your graduation exam a year and a half early? Uh, to be honest Lux, I can't believe it, even though you've been ...... since you were a kid."

"Humph! Look good, brother! Seeing that Galen still didn't believe it, the girl who was originally as delicate as a flower snorted angrily decided to show her hand, skillfully chanting spells, and the magic power gathered in the girl's hands, and then the light flashed and flew towards Galen, "Okay, dear brother, please take a step forward and try." ”

Galen had noticed the anomaly as the light flew towards him, and he didn't think much of the schadenfreude in Lux's tone, and was only taken aback when he wanted to move: "What's going on?" No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move his feet in any direction, and Galen, who was struggling when the 'bang' magic disappeared, was completely unguarded, and suddenly lost his center of gravity and hit the corridor wall.

"Giggle...... Ha ha! Now you know how good I am! Seeing that her brother, who had paid great attention to her image in the past, was embarrassed, the girl couldn't hold back her laughter and laughed happily.

"Well, congratulations to our excellent magician," Galen replied with a smile as he dusted himself off, "So, Lux, how did you end up here in Boulder Mountain City?" ”

"After the graduation exam, the students of the college took some time to celebrate for me," the girl whispered as she whispered a small tongue, probably recalling some over-the-top scenes.

"After that, I returned home with a caravan, because the road in the north was not easy to pass through in winter at that time, so the caravan chose to bypass the 'Howling Swamp' and 'Kara Swamp' and then go north to Demacia City, I originally wanted to part with the caravan in Boulder Mountain City and then go west to Radiant City to go home! I happened to see my brother and Brother Jiawen and Manager Zhao at the city gate before, and when those guards checked and released me slowly, I immediately chased after me, and a Praetorian Guard brother said Brother, you are here, so I came here to find you~"

"Well, there's a question, Lux, how did you get in at the gates?"

"Hmm, secret~~~"

"Your magic?"

"Brother~ I said, secret~~~"

……

'Click', half an hour later, the sound of the key unlocking sounded outside the door of the detention room for misdemeanor personnel, and the adventurer who was in a daze stood up from the door with a 'rub', and was about to shout grievances every day, but the person outside the door had already opened the door, and a staggered out of the detention room, "Eh, this is?" ”

"I'm sorry, sir, but your Excellency the Sheriff has confirmed your innocence, and now I will take you away......"

"Sorry!! What did you do earlier! I told those officers from the very beginning......"

"I'm sorry, sir, it's His Royal Highness, please be careful......"

"I'm cautious about your ......"

"Sorry, sir......"

"Sorry sir, please go this way......"

"Sorry, sir......"

"Yes, I'm sorry......"

In the apology, the adventurer who had been delayed for several days was sent out of the city guard office in a daze, and it was not until he went out of the gate that the adventurer suddenly realized, "A group of liars!" Let me in! I haven't returned my identity documents yet! I'm going to sue you! ”

"Ezreal-senpai?!"

Brother Galen still has some affairs to solve, and Lux has to bored around the official office, hearing the noise outside the official office, curiously probing to take a look, but he didn't expect to meet people he didn't know imaginable.

The adventurer who was making noise heard someone calling his name in his ear, and subconsciously turned his head to look, who was that woman? I don't know. turned around and was about to continue to argue with the guards, when he suddenly turned his head again: "It's you?" ”

"Uh...... Ezreal, do you know me? ”

This time the girl was surprised, Ezreal, a senior with the same excellent grades who entered the school a year earlier than the girl, also graduated early and stayed in school to become the youngest lecturer in the archaeology department of the Piltover School of Magic, and he had also taken his public class, so it was not strange to recognize it, but how could the senior know such a little transparent as himself?

Lux's question made Ezreal blush slightly, and the 'it's you' in his mouth didn't recognize the girl's identity, but the impressive soft and smooth blonde hair floating outside the door of the detention room flashed in his mind, and the girl's youthful and beautiful figure, it's hard to say: Uh, I don't know you yet, but I've been thinking about your back for half an hour.

As a novice driver who dedicates all his life to study and archaeological research, Ezreal worked hard for a long time, racked his brains and finally found the language of explanation, and said embarrassedly with a capital letter: "That...... Is it Lux? ”

Good fellow, I remember the name that my young brother shouted when he left.
