57 Tiamat
When many people hear about Tiamat, their first reaction is that it is just an academy. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info some people may think a little more, they will see Tiamat as a city, a neutral city, a city in the center of the whole of Valoran, like a city-state like Noxus or Demacia. Others think a little deeper, they know that Tiamat is the place where the rules are made, and the "Supreme Law of the War College" introduced a hundred years ago has brought general peace to the whole world, and in their eyes, the Tiamat War College is a great force, a place that is not a country but is better than a country.
But for those who have seen the War College with their own eyes, Tiamat has only one meaning to them.
This is a world.
After entering the gate of Tiamat, it took half an hour to walk away from the shadow cast by the wall. It is said that Tiamat is a complete circle, and from the edge of this circle to the very center of the circle, it would take a week for the top carriage to run.
Tiamat is divided into two parallel worlds. In the very center of Tiamat, there is the largest magic crystal in the entire Runeterra. The crystal is as big as a mountain and like a city. The hollowed-out crystal interior can fully accommodate dozens of magic schools, including the world-famous War College. Thousands of tutors, students study and live there. There, all the buildings are cast directly from magic crystals, and in the sunlight, they are glorious and holy, and the upper world is called "Eden".
And Tiamat's descending world is all but Eden in the center of the circle. These places are all made of obsidian and precious metals. You know, in the Land of Runeterra, obsidian is a rare item after magic crystals and philosopher's stones. In ordinary power, rare obsidian is only used for top-notch decoration and artwork materials. But in the down-down world, the floors here are all made of obsidian! Walking among the floors and buildings with a dark sheen, anyone will feel mysterious and noble. The lower world is called "Canaan", and ninety percent of Tiamat's population is active in this world, where the Mayoris Mystic Center, the Spell Storehouse, and countless employment agencies are located.
The procedure for entering the city actually lasted for half a day, and in a huge building similar to a station, the soldiers conducted a detailed inspection of He Luo and the others. Immediately after the verification, they distributed the philosopher's stones to the passers. The slightly mechanical and muffled voices of the soldiers told He Luo that the Philosopher's Stone recorded all the identity information that represented He Luo. In Tiamat, some people wear makeup, some people change their faces, and even some races can be deformed, so the only proof of identity is the stone.
Then what surprised He Luo was that after walking out of the station, he actually saw the existence of a high-speed rail. The carriage, also made of Black Shinestone mixed with Mithril, hovers over the rails. And the rails spread like cobwebs, stretching all the way in the direction of Eden. The soldiers told everyone who entered that it was Piltover's latest technology, and that the carriage, which used to take seven days to travel, now took only half a day to arrive.
The rumbling sound of motors sounded outside the carriage, and the black carriage floated on the rails, slowly rising at a forty-five degree angle, and then getting faster and faster.
The rain that had stopped was falling again in Tiamatri. The raindrops first fell on the glass of the carriage, and then He Luo saw through the glass, and then saw the rain curtain swaying in the wind, falling in the obsidian world. The station from which it departed was an astonishing masterpiece, and the royal blue steel formed the iron frame passages that started the trains, and now the rear of the train had left the passage, and only the milky white steam was still smeared in the passage, leaving the station, the road from which it came, and the iron gate like the dam gate, and the towering wall, all behind the steam.
Alex was lying on the window, his eyes shining with the surprise of seeing another new world.
Indeed, in the descending world hundreds of meters below the train, among the buildings with cold shapes alternating circles and squares cast of obsidian and precious metals, there were dense heads like ants. Not just humans, but giant elephant-sized beasts act as vehicles, mutated humans and mutated orcs walk side by side, mechanical beings talk to animals in the market, and even a black fog like a shadow can be seen haggling with merchants...... In the Land of Runeterra, for thousands of years, all races and forces have fought wars and fought each other, but in Tiamat, everything is in an extreme peace, and all people, all races, are insignificant in the face of the ruling power of the War College. They were all fair in Tiamat, and they were all just one of the identities represented by the Philosopher's Stone.
What excites Alex even more is the place they are heading to, the War College in Eden. For any warrior and hero, the War College is the highest temple of their lives. It holds all the heroic information of the Runeterra, and there is also all the magical secrets of this world. Legend has it that manuscripts on the study of martial arts and strength can also be found in the War Academy, such as Master Yi, Barbarian King Taidamir and others. What's more, for Alex, one of the most famous female archers in the Land of Runeterra, the goddess of war Sivir is one of the leaders of the War College, starting from an unknown mercenary, Sivir, who has stepped up to the road of the strongest marksman, is simply Alex's idol now.
"I don't know if I'll ever get a chance to meet Lord Sivir." Alex rubbed the corners of his clothes, and his palms didn't feel beads of sweat, "Maybe I'm thinking too much." Lord Sivir and Master Yi, as well as Lord Tedamir, are the spiritual trios of the War Academy, how can I, a little girl from Demacia, meet them...... But I really want to ......."
"Listen to me, Alex. You're the most likely first shooter girl I've ever seen. I believe in you, and one day you will meet Sivir. He Luo interrupted Alex's nervousness, and he firmly encouraged the uneasy girl.
"Really?" Alex glanced at He Luo a little gratefully, "Even if you say that, I won't be grateful to you!" ”
Just as the train began to move forward smoothly, another ball of light floated to the carriage where He Luo was. Then came the voice representing the War College from the light cluster.
"Ladies and gentlemen, whether you are human, half-human, half-beast, animal, mechanical, magical, or undefinable but sapient, welcome to Tiamat, welcome to the War College! Here's what you need to do here...... First, the Philosopher's Stone you own is a unique identity certificate, and it also has the functions of transaction settlement, item storage, and financial circulation, so be sure to carry it with you and pay attention to safety. Second, the use of force is not allowed anywhere in the War College, except in training grounds and arenas. Third ......"
The sound coming through the light cluster had a thick metallic sound, and He Luo saw that Yan had taken a nap with his eyes impatiently, and Zero was playing with a doll in his hand, but only Gao Wen took out a parchment book very seriously and recorded it.
"Special Announcement, for those of humanity from Demacia, according to the arrangement of Gavin III, your main task in Tiamat is to study. So upon arrival in Eden, you will be staying at the Splinter Hotel for three days, and within three days, you will have to find a school of magic that you are willing to accept. Note,There are 108 magic schools registered in Eden,Of which 72 are suitable for human studies......"
"What? School of Magic? Didn't we go to school at the War College? He Luo heard this announcement, and his confused expression made him turn to Alex for help.
"How could it be a war college? The War College is more of a leading body, responsible for managing all of these schools of magic. Gao Wen put down the pen of the record, looked up at He Luo and said.
"No, there are exceptions." Alex suddenly added, "If you become a hero above the Transcendent Master, you can enter the War College to further your studies. ”
He Luo looked at Alex's eyes, and her eyes shone with a strange luster.
P.S. Arena mode is finally about to begin...
