Chapter Seventy-Five: Departure
Since dinner with Caterina that day, the three of them had only spent one more day in Noxus. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe three of them set off from Noxus again, and with Svein's orders, naturally no one embarrassed them. The three of them can be said to have left Noxus smoothly, but when they left, Lu Bu was not in a very good mood. Also, after all, in the persuasion of the heroes of Noxus, his own attitude has begun to become not quite right. At least compared to when he first joined Demacia, his thoughts at this time were not as firm as they were then.
Rui Wen could also see that his mood was not quite right at this time, but she didn't want to say too much. It's good for him to handle this kind of thing by himself, and involving too much of it will make him more distressed.
But Ahri didn't have to think about it so much, she was all kinds of happy along the way. Obviously, I didn't have such a good opportunity to go out to enjoy the mountains and rivers before, and this time I obviously wanted to have a good time.
Following their next journey, they crossed the Plains of the Storm, then through the Shurima Desert, and finally through the Great Barrier, and they returned to Demacia.
When he came out this time, Lu Bu, who originally thought that he might spend a few months, also said that he was quite surprised. Unexpectedly, only half a month has passed by now, so even if they finally return to Demacia, they have actually only been out for a little more than a month and a half.
But further down, there is really nothing interesting, to be honest, the kind of completely undeveloped place Lu Bu thinks there is nothing to look at at all. It's better to go back to Demacia or the War College, that would be more interesting.
The time to cross the Stormstorm Plains is quite fast, after all, the mounts of several people are not bad. With two diamond-level wind horses and a top-of-the-line red rabbit horse, the speed of crossing the Storm Plains can be said to be extremely fast. In just two days, they entered the Shurima Desert. And as soon as they saw the endless yellow sand, a figure reappeared, it was Nasus, who had helped Lu Bu and them a lot before.
"Yo, long time no see. Mr. Nasus. Ahri greeted him warmly, and Nasus still had the gentle expression on his face.
"It has been a while since you came to this Shurima. I happen to be free, so please come and sit with me. Nasus's words were still so calm, as if there was nothing in the world that could excite him.
Lu Bu nodded, and then said: "It's just right, we also want to take a good rest, we were riding horses and galloping in the Storm Plains before, although we were very happy but also quite tired." ”
"Come with me, then." After saying that, Nasus turned around and began to lead the way, and Lu Bu and the three of them followed without hesitation. However, due to the issue of etiquette, all three dismounted and walked to show their respect for Nasus.
The men walked for some distance before they saw the palace in the yellow sand. Although on the surface, that palace is somewhat shabby. But after entering, Lu Bu and the others were amazed. The palace is actually a perfect library, with bookshelves all over the place, and all kinds of books are neatly visited. The spiral staircase in the middle leads to all floors, and you won't find a better library on the continent.
"I didn't expect there to be such an excellent library in this desert, and the collection even surpassed the War Library of the War College and the Transcendence Library of Ionia." Ahri browsed from shelf to shelf, having studied at the War College and the Beyond Academy, and was familiar with both libraries. She was amazed at the library, which was hidden in the sand.
"It's all my private collection, and it's one of the things I'm personally proud of." Nasus was also very proud of the library, which he had dug up all the books he had dug up. It could even be said that some of these books could even empty the treasury of a city-state!
Lu Bu couldn't help but walk in, he had also worked as a civilian for a while. I still know a little bit about books, so I accidentally took a copy from the bookshelf and looked at it, and immediately stuffed it back. It may seem silly, but it's a great way to kill time.
"I didn't expect you to be not only superior in strength, but also first-class in your collection. This really surprised me. Lu Bu couldn't help but sigh, it was hard to imagine how much Nasus had paid for these books, the value of which was immeasurable.
"It took a lot of money, but it was still within my expectations. They didn't disappoint me either, don't you like it too? Nasus smiled and walked up the stairs. Lu Bu and the others immediately followed, and when they came to the top floor, they found that this was Nasus's private room, but the area of this room was really large and scary. After all, not every hero can make such a large palace and use an entire floor for his own use.
"Sit down, I'll get you some drink." Nasus pointed to the couches over there, motioning for them to sit down first, and then to prepare some drinks for them himself, and honestly the hospitality suddenly increased in favor of him.
Lu Bu and the others were not hypocritical, and sat down over there very casually. Then he waited for Nasus's return, and Nasus didn't keep them waiting. Soon, he returned to several people with black tea. He put the tray down and poured tea for a few people himself, which flattered Rui Wen and Ahri. The person in front of him is a demigod after all, and he is one of the top powerhouses on this Valoran. And now his actions really surprised these people, and no matter how they thought about it, they felt that it should not be someone of this level to serve them tea and water.
"Don't be surprised, I'm a demigod though. But time is fair for anyone, and most of my time here has been lonely. I'm glad you guys are here. Placing three cups of black tea in front of a few people, Nasus said calmly.
"But this time I welcomed you here, in fact, it was for you. Lu Bu. Nasus took a sip of black tea and said solemnly.
"Me?" Lu Bu pointed at himself, a little puzzled.
"I've been following you since you came to this continent, until now. The trajectory of your fate is still very normal. But then your future is shattered, and I have a hunch that you will have great disasters in the distant future. Nasus's face was full of solemnity, this was definitely not to deceive Lu Bu.
"Me, will there be a great catastrophe?" Lu Bu also frowned at this time, there was no need for Nasus to lie to him, he was willing to believe Nasus.
"And this catastrophe will determine the next form of this continent, and perhaps the decisions you make will have unimaginable final results." Nasus looked at Lu Bu very seriously, hoping to see more of the trajectory of his fate. But in his eyes, Lu Bu's future can only be chaotic now, and he can't see more of the future at all.
"I didn't expect my fate to be so thrilling in the future." Lu Bu could only smile bitterly, if someone else told him that this continent would be a mess next, then he would definitely drive that person out. But if it's Nasus, then things might be in trouble.
"I've only seen a little bit of the fragment, and I can't be sure of more. But ah, Demacia's pilot, the future test is bound to come. I hope you will be prepared so that you can cope with everything that lies ahead. Nasus put down the teacup in his hand, and he also hoped that Lu Bu would make the right choice next.
"I will." Lu Bu nodded, indicating that he knew. Then Nasus got up and said, "Rest with me today, downstairs is the guest room I have prepared for the guests." I'll call you for lunch and dinner, and as for the books, you're free to flip through them. With that, he got up and went to prepare today's lunch.
Lu Bu and the others also stood up and said that they understood, and then they all went downstairs, intending to get what they wanted from the endless ocean of knowledge.
