Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Addition of Quinn and Lux
This is Jiang Weihan's second day as a lord.
In fact, he is not a lord in the pure sense of the word, and in terms of status, there is nothing wrong with being called the lord of a country. However, the territory is too small, and he does not have the slightest sense of being equal to a king. It's great to be a commander, just like in the fortress of World of Warcraft, it feels good to listen to a group of younger brothers shouting "Hello, Commander" and "Salute to you, Commander" every day.
As soon as he had breakfast, Wayne appeared in front of him with a full armament: "Commander, I feel that Kel'thugad is not far from us, and I am going to hunt him down!" ”
"Are you sure?" Jiang Weihan asked. He was more than happy that Kel'thugad was in the Hillsbrad Hills, because if this guy went out to sea and then went to Stormwind, then God knows how much damage it would cause. And if he is here, no matter what he does, it is at least within Jiang Weihan's reach.
"I haven't caught his breath yet, but my gut tells me so." Wayne's answer was simple and straightforward, but Jiang Weihan was still willing to trust her instincts at this time.
"Then I approve it."
"I need some support." Wayne said, this was the first time she had asked for support, which made Jiang Weihan a little surprised, "My Holy Silver Crossbow Arrows used to be made by a special magic guide workshop. Now I don't have a lot of bolts left. ”
"Okay, no problem, I'll summon later. Need anything else? Jiang Weihan readily agreed.
Wayne was not polite, and said directly: "If I want to find the traces of Kel'thugad and his evil minions, I need a good partner. ”
"Who?"
"The best scout in Demacia, the Wings of Demacia - Quinn."
Jiang Weihan thought about it and felt that it was still very necessary. Not only can Quinn help Wayne find his target quickly, but in future wars, this heroine who can use the eyes of an eagle to detect the enemy will also be of great use.
So he postponed summoning the Wind Maiden, Ahri, and the policewoman for the time being...... Good wishes.
Jiang Weihan comforted himself in his heart: In fact, Quinn is also good-looking, but the equipment is ugly...... Comfortingly, summoning Quinn consumed less energy than he expected, at least less than summoning Wayne.
After the light of the summoning teleportation array disappeared, Quinn, who was wearing leather armor and carrying a crossbow machine, appeared in front of Jiang Weihan. On her shoulder stood the blue-gray eagle Hua Luo, equally motionless and staring at him.
"Wings of Demacia—Quinn salutes you, Commander!" Quinn gave a standard military salute.
Jiang Weihan nodded and smiled, "Welcome to the new world, Quinn, and your partner Hua Luo!" He looked at the new hero carefully, Quinn was indeed very good-looking, with sharp eyes and a cold complexion, and he had a heroic female military demeanor.
"It must look good in a green uniform." Jiang Weihan thought to himself. "Demacia's military uniform is too ugly!"
After the meeting, Wayne introduced the situation to Quinn. They do look like a pair of best friends, is it because they both use crossbows? Jiang Weihan didn't know, but by noon the two of them were no longer in Dunhold. A Demacian soldier told him that the two had been riding out of the city on their mission in the morning.
A pair of workaholics!
It's better to be Kyle, always by your side.
But she's only taken off her helmet twice so far, once at Stratholme's blessing ceremony, and once yesterday when he's talking to the people. After seeing her real face, Jiang Weihan felt very obstructive every time he saw the golden helmet, and he had an urge to throw it away. After thinking about it, I still don't dare - how about hiding it secretly?
Jiang Weihan thought unexpectedly.
In the morning, according to the reports of various commanders, he supplemented the various tools and supplies they needed. For example, the large machinery and energy needed for the reconstruction work, as well as the training equipment for the soldiers in the barracks, and so on. Counting the cost of summoning Quinn, there is still more than half of the remaining energy.
With the idea that only by spending the energy can he get greater benefits, he is ready to summon another hero to come out. There's also what it's needed to summon what Kyle said earlier about the "Divine Transformation Ritual" by the way.
After immersing himself in Valoran's heart once again, Jiang Weihan chose a hero he had been waiting for, and then summoned his virtual image with his mind: the wandering mage - Ruiz.
However, his call was not answered.
"Is it because there are not enough energy points?" Jiang Weihan thought so. But it's clear that this kind of energy is enough to summon two Wayne.
He had already made the choice of heroes before he summoned. Ryze was chosen because this hero fits perfectly into the definition of "justice" and is also a mage in the full sense of the word. Reality is different from games, where APs that deal spell damage are called mages, so much so that tech-only heroes like Ryan Giggs, the demolitionist, are classified as mages. But in reality, Giggs and Victor are not mages in the pure sense of the word.
As Valoran's guardian, Ruiz is naturally a true mage, and is also proficient in a variety of spells. Considering the alliance with Dalaran, Reze is clearly a mage best suited to represent Valoran.
But why can't it be summoned?
I didn't need that much energy to summon Kyle in the first place. According to the old man of time, Kyleko is a true god with a godhead! Much stronger than Ryz.
Of course, at this time, he didn't know exactly how much energy he spent summoning Kyle. He thought he had just spent the energy he had gained from meeting Cenarius and being given a sigil! But in fact, it is far beyond his realization.
When Jiang Weihan wondered if he was opening it in the wrong way, the old man of Time, who had disappeared last time, suddenly took the initiative to appear in front of him and answered his doubts.
"You can't summon Ryze and it's not because of energy." The old man said, and then he began to popularize some secrets of the Valoran Heart to Jiang Weihan that he didn't know yet:
"From the scroll he carried, Ryze gained a power that all mages crave—the power to merge with Valoran's magical network. This gives him an inexhaustible supply of mana. Eventually, he became the guardian of the magical power of the Land of Runeterra, a true demigod. Even in Valoran, he was completely comparable to the gods. But while gaining great power, the magic net bound him to Valoran. If you want to summon him, either Valoran's Heart has ten times more energy than it does now, or you have a powerful carrier that allows him to break free from the web and descend on Azeroth. ”
"What kind of carrier?" Jiang Weihan asked.
"A vehicle with great magical powers. For example, magic artifacts, such as the body of a mage with outstanding magical talents, and even powerful magical energy, many can be. But it has to be strong enough, it's good enough. Because the strength of the carrier will directly affect the strength of Ruiz. Later you will also meet some heroes who need carriers, and most of them follow this principle. Therefore, I build yì you can first redeem huàn a transformation stone. Rest assured, it's cheap. ”
At the mention of magical artifacts, Jiang Weihan immediately thought of the Book of Medivan, the Skull of Guldan, and the Eye of Sargeras. If memory serves, the first two are in Dalaran, while the rest are in the Tomb of Sargeras.
Putting aside the Book of Medivan that the mages of Dalaran couldn't let go, Jiang Weihan began to wonder if he proposed to use something as evil as Guldan's Skull to summon a powerful hero of justice, would the Kenrito Council agree?
It's worth a try!
He thought so.
There's nothing to lose by mentioning it anyway.
And the Skull of Gul'dan will play an important role in the near future. After the Scourge defeated Darra, the artifact fell into the hands of Tikdios, the leader of the Dreadlord, and it flooded into the forest of Felwood. Then, due to Arthas's deliberate lure/lure, Illidan absorbed the power of this artifact and turned into a demon. He can no longer be recognized by the Night Elves, and he will never be able to turn back on the dark path.
This is enough to show that Guldan's skull is clearly a great scourge, and that Dalaran has no other use in keeping it than to invite the invasion of the natural calamity.
Thinking about it this way, Jiang Weihan felt that the certainty of convincing them was greatly increased.
So he hurriedly asked, "If you have a carrier, do you need energy to summon heroes?" ”
Kiran replied, "It takes some basic summoning hero energy, and if the carrier is strong enough, it doesn't need additional energy." ”
Jiang Weihan nodded secretly in understanding. "By the way, Kyle Jianyì let me learn their divine powers, this won't conflict with the time magic you taught me, right?"
"No, it won't. The divine power of their Eternals is indeed powerful and unique. It does affect your ability to learn some other magic, such as dark spells, though. ”
"Forget it, I don't want to learn dark spells." Jiang Weihan shook his head, and then thought of the question he wanted to ask the most today, "Can the skins of those heroes in the game be used in reality?" ”
Kieran was a little surprised, but replied truthfully, "The skins you understand are actually divided into two categories in reality: one is that this hero has appeared in this form before, such as Kyle's 'Silver Trial' with a new armor and weapon livery, and the other is a purely entertainment add-on, only cosmetic, such as Graves's 'pool pie duì' - you can't force a gunslinger to fight with a water gun. In the former, you can communicate with the heroes on their own, and if they want to modify it, you will need to find them a make-up artist - I heard that LeBlanc loves it! ”
Jiang Weihan was ready to summon Ryze because it was a practical need, and now he needed to find a replacement - and without thinking too long, he quickly found his target: Syndra, the Dark Head, the Radiant Girl, or Anne, the Dark Daughter.
Anne was still too young, and asked her to be Valoran's representative to Dalaran, which Jiang Weihan felt was not suitable. Then between the cute sister and the royal sister, he decisively and resolutely chose Lux
