At a small town market on the border of the Shurima Desert. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

I don't know what day it is, Cassiopeia, a noble lady of Noxus, who has come here in search of a guide to take her to the legendary lost city of Shurima.

Although Durkkao has been missing for a long time and the Dukkao family is gradually declining, this family was once a behemoth after all, even if it is crumbling, and no one can be despised until it is completely down.

"Sivir, who made his fortune by robbing tombs in Shurima, selling treasures, and gaining fame and fortune, became famous. She has the nickname 'Treasure Hunter'. And on the battlefield, she is brave and passionate, and she is the ...... of the 'goddess of war'"

In a private room in the restaurant, Cassiopeia sneered, and put away the card in her hand after reading it, which recorded some basic information about Sivir.

"I'm really looking forward to it."

Cassiopeia's eyes suddenly flashed with an unpredictable brilliance.

"Knock Knock"

"Please come in."

Without making Cassiopeia wait, Sivir soon arrived at the agreed place to meet.

The door opened the next moment, and the first thing that caught Cassiopeia's eye was a pair of wheat-colored hands, the color of the skin of those who often walked in the desert.

When Cassiopeia saw the whole picture of Sivir, even if Cassiopeia was a woman, she had to admit that she was amazed by Sivir.

Sivir is wearing a yellow uniform, if it is paired with the afterglow of the setting sun, it must be excellent, and it is difficult to imagine that this is a woman who walks in the desert all year round.

The wheat-colored skin makes Sivir look wild, and the blade in his hand complements it, making Sivir even more heroic.

After adjusting her mentality and posture, Cassiopeia invited Sivir to sit down and talk in detail.

The two met for the first time, and although Cassiopeia was a woman, Sivir was still very jealous of Cassiopeia.

The shadow of the famous tree, although he has not seen Cassiopeia in real life, but Sivir has heard of the most famous courtesan in Noxus!

"Second Miss of the Duke Kao family, I don't know what you are looking for me today?"

Instead of pretending to each other, Sivir got straight to the point, she was curious about Cassiopeia's purpose.

"Hehe, Mingren doesn't say dark words, I'm here this time, and I want to ask you for help."

Cassiopeia continued unhurriedly, "Help me find the Lost City!" ā€

"Remuneration?"

Sivir didn't smile on his face, and he was faintly moved.

"You're satisfied."

This is a very vague answer, and in fact, Cassiopeia can only give such an answer.

"Yes."

Sivir thought about it carefully, and then said yes, even Cassiopeia was surprised, why would Sivir agree so easily?

The deal between the two was quickly completed, and Cassiopeia handed a map that she had gotten out of nowhere to Shevir and told her to study it. After agreeing to meet the next day, they all went back, and after the two separated, a sneer crossed the corner of their mouths.

......

The next day

"You're alone?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Sivir's eyes, but it quickly disappeared, and he looked at Cassiopeia alone, puzzled. He had a lot of precautions for this operation, and gathered all the mercenaries under his command, but he didn't expect Cassiopeia to be good, and he was alone, so he wasn't afraid......

"Yes, I'm alone, but I'm the one who is optimistic about you."

Cassiopeia's voice has a unique charm that almost lost the souls of the mercenaries under Sivir's command!

Hearing this, Sivir glanced at the mercenaries behind him, and found that most of his men were staring at each other, and they were almost drooling.

Sivir frowned and said sharply: "Cheer me up!" Look at the way you look now, don't let outsiders see the joke! ā€

Sivir had already told Cassiopeia's identity to his subordinates last night, but even so, Sivir didn't expect Cassiopeia's charm to be so great, and it still fascinated these stinky men.

"Hey, hey..."

Fortunately, after Sivir's reprimand, the mercenaries had come to their senses, scratching their heads and hiding their embarrassment with laughter.

"Don't say anything like that, we're all the way now."

Cassiopeia sneered in her heart, but on the surface, she swept the mercenary behind Sivir with a smile.

"Yes, I was hypocritical. So, let's go now. ā€

Sivir's eyes looked at Cassiopea's eyes even deeper, just based on Cassiopeia's performance just now, it was enough to show that this was a dangerous woman, Rao was so, Sivir still decided to hurry and find the lost city under the sand.

The group followed the map given by Cassiopeia and some legends that circulated in the desert, and managed to find a rough route to the Lost City.

"It's hot... When will it be a head to go on like this! ā€

The person who complained was named Andrew, who was frowning at the blue sky, and he was a mercenary under Sivir.

Under the scorching sun and the bitter cold of the night, the group had been trekking in silence for five days, but they had found nothing, and it was inevitable that some people would be suspicious.

Sivir glanced at Andrew with a cold gaze, and Andrew, who wanted to talk more, stopped his mouth in amusement, but he was still muttering quietly, and staring at the backs of Cassiopeia and Sivir quietly with a pair of thief eyebrows, not knowing what was going on in his dirty head.

After a little more onwards, Sivir ordered everyone to rest for a while and hurried, and sent two spies to see the road ahead. On the one hand, it is to eliminate hidden dangers, and on the other hand, I still want to try my luck in case I find something!

"Second Miss, you have impressed me along the way."

Taking advantage of this opportunity to rest, Sivir wanted to explore the reality of Cassiopeia, the five-day long journey, his mercenaries were a little difficult, and he also felt tired, but Cassiopeia was a woman, and she was like a nobody, which had to be amazing!

"Joke aside, I didn't grow up in a sweet jar, it's not easy for anyone to survive in Noxus, I can still bear this bit of suffering. Besides, how dare I hunt for treasure alone without any skills? ā€

Cassiopeia's voice was not only heard by Sivir, but also reached the ears of the group of mercenaries.

Cassiopeia, of course, knew what Sivir was thinking, and she had already said what she had prepared, paralyzing Sivir and warning the group of mercenaries who were eager to "eat" her.

The ensuing small talk with Sivir made Cassiopeia secretly sneer in her heart, and the Cassiopeia that Sivir saw now was what Cassiopeia wanted her to see.

By the time Sivir and his party were resting, all but one of the spies named Jim had returned, and neither the danger nor the target had been found.

After waiting for a while, but still not seeing Jim's shadow, Sivir's brow furrowed completely.

"Jim, is something wrong?"

One of the mercenaries began to mumble in a low voice, in a good mercenary group, except for a very small number of unsociable people, the feelings between the mercenaries are actually very deep, after all, they are all people who were born and died together.

Jim is also a qualified spy in the mercenary group, and under normal circumstances, if there is anything found, he must report it immediately, and now that Jim has not returned for a long time, he may really have encountered an accident.

"Let's take a look."

Looking at the somewhat noisy mercenary group, Sivir decided to act together, and did not send spies alone to investigate Jim's direction, that would be meaningless, it would be better for a large force to act together. Otherwise, I really encountered some terrible monsters, and one or two to send them to death would only add to the casualties.

"Regiment...... Regiment... Long, I, I saw!! ā€

Before Sivir and his party could leave, a panting voice resounded in the yellow sand.

"It's Jim!"

"Yes, Jim's voice!"

"He just said he saw it? What do you see??? ā€

ā€œ.........ā€

Jim's voice was recognized by the mercenary group, and almost all of them were full of joy, including Sivir and Cassiopeia, but no one noticed: Cassiopeia's smile was a little cold.

Jim came panting, and before he could speak, he was surrounded by a group of people, Jim looked at the eager faces, waved his hand, and said breathlessly: "I... I... Saw a group of ancient ruins of tall towers. ā€

With that, Jim was already squatting down in the yellow sand.

Suddenly, the whole yellow world was full of cheers, and everyone's faces were full of joy. A group of ancient ruins towers? No one else can think of anything but the Lost City.

Jim came running with all his might, running out of strength. Two mercenaries handed Jim water and some dry food to him, so that he could recover first.

As soon as Jim came to his senses, he couldn't wait to explain: "That place, a bit far away, I thought it was a hallucination at first!" ā€

After listening to Jim's explanation, everyone understood why Jim had not returned for a long time, in addition to the fact that the journey was indeed a little long, and Jim looked at it patiently to explore, otherwise if it was just a mirage, it would be empty joy.

This time, everyone rushed towards the Lost City with anticipation, and although the road was a little far, everyone felt relaxed under the excitement... There was talk and laughter along the way, but they didn't know what was waiting for them......
