"You're leaving tomorrow, right?"

In a large, brightly lit house, a majestic shadow loomed over Rhodes, and his father, a retired centurion of the Dreadnought Legion, asked in a deep voice. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Yes, Father." Rhodes was that frivolous in front of anyone, but under his father's gaze, he instinctively felt a little frightened. Even though his father is only a businessman now, his eyes are still as sharp as a real knife, not only because of his father's temperament accumulated from the battlefield, but also because of the after-effects of seeing him kill a shopkeeper who stole goods at a very young age.

"That's good. The butler will accompany you to Demacia, and he will take care of you there. But......" the man pulled out a badge from under the big coat and threw it to his child, "go and visit the garrison of Demacia, and give this to the legion commander, Garba, and the lord will keep an eye on you." ”

The black iron badge was cold and heavy, and it carved a lion's head and eagle wing shield with rough carving. The lion's head shield is the emblem of the Dreadnought Legion, and with the addition of eagle wings, it is only possessed by officers who have reached the first positional rank.

"Legionnaire?"

Rhodes is very familiar with the ranks of the Federation, and the rank of the Legion Commander is very high, you must know that the power of Demacia, Galen, is only the Legion Leader of the Dreadnought.

"Hmm. Under his care, you should be able to inherit the prestige of our family, smoothly enter the Dreadnought Legion, and then be promoted little by little. If you're lucky, you'll get a less popular legion, and the corps commander is sure. ”

"Really?" Rhodes suddenly thought of something, and he showed his earnest gaze again, if there really was a legionnaire to take care of it, then in Demacia......

"Yes, Garba owed me a life on the battlefield back then, and it should be worth a lot of money now." The man's speech was slow, as if the history of the previous years was reappearing in front of his eyes. But now that he is a merchant, it is time for him to send his son to collect the debt.

After leaving his father's house, Rhodes slipped into his grandfather's room again. In the bright light, Edlan's former mayor turned around.

"My dear Rod, did your father give you that badge?" The old man smiled and touched his grandson's head.

"Hmm." No matter how gentle Rhodes looks on weekdays, but when he arrives in front of his grandfather, who loves him, he will be as gentle as a kitten.

"Demacia is a big place, you still have to bring some money, so we can rest assured......" The old man took out a small box from behind him and opened it in front of Rod.

"What is this?"

The luster in the box made Rhodes squint, unlike the gold and silver coins used by the Human Federation of Demacia, the box contained only some thin chips, but in the eyes of everyone, these chips were no less than a mountain of gold and silver!

"This is a set of high-level spell runes, originally prepared for you, but you are suitable for the warrior system, so you don't need it. However, the value of runes is eternal, and when you get to Demacia, go to a bank, this set of runes can probably be worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins. The old man looked at his grandson and confidently admonished, "Although it is said that money never sleeps, what is more important than money is human affection." It doesn't matter if you spend all the gold, as long as you can climb up to that Legion Elder and build a network in Demacia, you'll earn more gold sooner or later! ”

"Thank you, grandpa!" Rod stared greedily at the box of runes, but obediently hugged the old man. And he had already begun to think about how Demacia should squander this huge amount of money. Suddenly, he remembered the young man's indifferent look at him, and a vicious smile appeared on his lips, thinking that even if he left, he would ......

In the small house on Xie Longhua Street, Grandma was knitting wool by the tea stove, He Luo and Alex sat around the sofa beside her, and the centurion officer was also sitting beside her.

"When we get to Demacia, will we be directly incorporated into the Dreadnought?" Alex imagined with great hope that her dream was to become the most powerful archer in Runeterra, and joining the Dreadnought Legion in the first step seemed like a good choice.

"There will be a few more selections." The centurion, who was still in full armor, replied solemnly, "Although it is the elite selected from all over the world, it is inevitable that there will be times of fraud, so it will be tested again, and those with mediocre talent will be concentrated and trained, and after a while, they will be sent directly to the various legions on the border." Among them, the best ones will be selected and can enter the Academy of Gnaeus for further study. After graduating from the academy, students will directly become officers and be sent to various legions, or they will be selected to become elites and sent to various righteous places to be trained as heroes. ”

"Don't be so anxious, my child." Grandma made another pot of tea, and her eyes were particularly sweet when she looked at Alex, "But I see hope in you, and it seems that our daughter Ash of Demacia is just around the corner." ”

"Outside...... Grandma, what about my parents? Suddenly, He Luo asked a question that had been buried in his heart for a long time. Now that his background is clear, the next question about his parents is He Luo's biggest question.

"They......" the old man smiled silently, but the weaving in her hand stopped unconsciously, "don't you remember?" ”

"I've been through so much these days that I don't remember much." He Luo had already thought of an excuse, and he still answered with the stalk of amnesia.

"They're all very nice, and you'll be able to meet them in the future." Grandma didn't answer directly, but her eyes were a little heavier when she looked at He Luo, "But one thing can be relieved, they will be very happy to see you look so handsome now." ”

"By the way, you should be careful when you arrive in Demacia," the old man suddenly and solemnly admonished, "many people think that it is the safest fortress and city for mankind, but from another point of view, that city is more dangerous than the battlefield. ”

"Why?" He Luo raised his head, he seemed to remember that Demacia was a fortress of human security.

"Game of Thrones." The old man slowly spat out the same word, "Many people say that Noxus is a bad land where power reigns, but in fact, how can Demacia not be like this?" Where there are people, there will be strife, and where there is power, there will be death. This temple city, which is touted as the quintessence of mankind, is actually just a battlefield of intertwined powers and fierce wars. You must know that at the time of Gavin II, it was still a monarchy, but in the third it had to become a constitutional state. The royal palace became a symbol in Demacia, and the real rulers were present in the halls of the consuls' residences. ”

This insightful remark far surpassed that of most politicians, but there was nothing unusual that came out of the mouth of this gray-eyed lady, and the clear eyes of the old man fell on He Luo and Alex.

"You're still young, but be aware that in that city, everywhere is a battlefield."

"Don't worry, those nasty people won't be able to dodge my arrows!" Alex suddenly looked up at the old man, her face flushed, but there was a determined light in her eyes.

"Hehe, I'll just have to stand behind Alex." He Luo looked at Alex's side face a little obscenely, which made the centurion frown.

"Ma'am, we will do everything in our power to protect them." The centurion still stood up in front of the old man, "I swear by Bullock's name to do everything in my power to protect the descendants of the Shinobi of Demacia!" ”
