Chapter 4: Confessions Between the Blades
The Gleason couple ninjas were grief-stricken and wanted to pour water for Horren and Raven, but Horen immediately stepped forward to pick up the kettle and pour water for the Gleason couple, and Raven silently helped the old man sit down, feeling mixed feelings.
"Thank you, child, and we're sorry we don't have anything to entertain you at home, but the fruit from the Spirit of Nature is very delicious, please taste it." Ms. Gleason then took the yellow tree fruit on the table to Revan and Hollen.
Huo Lun's eyes were wet, and he whimpered and thanked him, and the two tasted the sweet and delicious tree fruit, and the juice gushed out in the mouth, making people feel refreshed.
Revane suddenly turned and ran out of the house, and Holren immediately followed, and then saw Raven running to the field, intending to plow the field for the Gleasons.
Hollen's guilt also exploded, so he stepped forward to help, and after a few hours of labor, the sun was setting, and the cultivation of the land was completed, Hollen summoned the shock tide to irrigate the fields, and returned home with Raven, where the Gleasons had prepared dinner and greeted them with a smile.
"Thank you very much, please use it."
"It's nothing, it's all about us."
The dinner ended with a little silence, sadness and warmth, and back in the room, Raven and Holren changed into the local Ionian coarse cloth clothes, and Raven wept silently in the room.
This girl, who has been an orphan since she was a child, worked constantly, then enlisted in the army to train as a soldier, and finally had the glory and faith of the country to fight to the death, but was abandoned by the army on the battlefield and died with the enemy. And the parents of the soldier who died under her sword at this moment gave her a home so gently and kindly......
The girl, who had been strong for several years, couldn't restrain herself from tears. At the same time, Hollen was lying on the small wooden bed, his eyes empty and confused.
For the growth and belief of the hero he loved deeply, he sacrificed so many rebel soldiers, and his selfishness and despicability were vividly revealed under the tears and grief of the old couple, and Huo Lun regretted it infinitely.
In the dead of night, Huo Lun wanted to use the magic of the old man of time to turn back time, but found that he had no resonance with Kieran at all, could it be that he basically didn't pay attention to the old man's information, so he was not supported to see him.
Distraught and regretful, all Huo Lun could do now was to look forward, so he quickly closed his eyes.
Inside the submarine base
"Yao Luo, is there still no reaction?"
"All attempts to connect have been blocked, and the data in that area of negative energy has changed slightly."
"I hope it's a good thing."
"I hope."
In a daze, Horen soon fell asleep, and some strange images vaguely appeared in his mind, shattering and surging black energy, devoured houses and buildings.
Freljord's ice weapons and ice magic, the power of the elements, the armor and elite weapons of the nations, the countless corpses that fell to the ground and the collision and blast of magic.
Gradually, some figures and faces appeared in front of him, between the fallen warriors and leaders, some extremely familiar faces crossed in front of Horen's eyes, Ash who was swallowed by the pitch-black energy, Lux who fell in a pool of blood, and Silas who collapsed, all of which made Horen's heart tremble.
I saw that the picture rotated in an instant, a floating independent building, and a floating old man, Kieran. Then Kieran's whole body energy skyrocketed, and all the objects around him began to distort and disintegrate, and suddenly a huge purple eye appeared in Horen's mind, and Horren woke up instantly.
Is this what is going to happen? Huo Lun was frightened and frightened in his heart, the girl who smiled optimistically and found the value of her own light, the mother who stood in the frost, no matter how biting the cold wind was, and also had a blazing war mother in her heart, the scene in the dream broke Huo Lun's heart, and she secretly swore in her heart that she would never let this happen!
A nightmare left Holren sleepy, so he got out of bed and went for a walk outside the house.
Ionia was silent and cold in the middle of the night, but the natural magic wafting through the air gave Horen a lot of comfort.
Horren slowly walked to the woods next to him, the land along the way was more or less eroded by the Noxian strategy, and the land was suffering, and Horren had mixed contradictions in his heart.
For an empire that is magically barren and wants to rise, expanding and invading for the sake of its own territory, this is undoubtedly an honor and a right thing for the Noxians to stand.
But now standing in this long-suffering land, Huo Lun himself doesn't know what position to take. When he first read the story of Runeterra, Horren had no favoritism, and he loved every hero and city-state region.
Maybe it's really like the unknown person said, he is not a personal hero here at all, the master and development of this land should be handed over to the people of the Runeterra, and he should not interfere with the direction, except for the Void, this foreign invasion.
In the forest, the moonlight was clear and bright, and Horren could faintly feel that there was a riot of elemental magic in the air, and it was very familiar. Slowly approaching, he found that it was Yasuo who was practicing the Wind Resisting Sword Technique in the forest, so he hid behind a tree and peeked.
The flying blade drew a graceful and handsome arc in the air, the stabbing blow of the steel flash was neat and powerful, and the surrounding wind elements rotated in an orderly manner but there was a hint of anger and unsteady, but none of the surrounding trees were injured, which was the respect of the Ionians for the spirit of nature.
"Come out." I saw Yasuo put away his knife and said in the direction of Horen, who immediately appeared with a friendly face.
"Good evening, Yasuo."
"You came to this forest at night, and you still peeked at what your intentions were in the Wind Resisting Sword Technique!"
"I just can't sleep and come for a walk, please don't get me wrong, I don't have any hostility."
Yasuo's expression was serious, his eyes were observing and scrutinizing, and Horren had goosebumps all over his body when he was watched, so he quickly changed the subject.
"Your sword doesn't seem to be firm enough, and you're a little impetuous, is it because of Raven's business?"
"Your enlightenment and balance have been understood by Elder Soma, what can I do?"
The slightly angry tone sounded like an angry child, this swordsman who had not yet experienced the hardships and vicissitudes of life made Huo Lun feel unexpectedly cute, but his kendo must have a deeper understanding, otherwise he would definitely not be worthy of the title of Wind Sword Hero!
"Anger brings impulses, resentment and anger only defile your kendo, this is what a master taught me, and I hope that your heart will also be calmed and thorough by the soothing spirit of nature."
"You are so young, and your words are always so deep and old-fashioned, since you mentioned kendo, then there is nothing more convincing than the confession between the blades, come on, use your magic to conjure a sword and compete with me!"
Yasuo then drew his sword and pointed it at Horen, his eyes determined and tinged with faint anger. Horen's eyes were calm and clear, staring at Yasuo without waves, perhaps the confession of the sword blade is better than all preaching, only true understanding can reach the heart for a long time.
Since he erased the suffering suffered by Yasuo, he can't let him lose the growth he deserves, Huo Lun is firm in his heart at this moment, and immediately uses the magic power in his body to resonate with the earth, and a long sword mixed with earth and rock slowly forms.
Seeing that the blade of the sword was not straight, there were some bends and weeds in several places, and just as Huo Lun was about to hold the sword, an unknown blue bug crawled out of the hilt, making Huo Lun's hand in the air very embarrassed.
When Horen held the sword in both hands and headed towards Yasuo, Yasuo's whole body burst out with a burst of wind element, and he quickly rushed towards Horren with lightning speed, and Horren already had a plan in his heart, he would not use all his magic power and the master's sword path to defeat him in this battle, but let Yasuo learn to be calm and restrained, and control his heart.
I saw that Yasuo was close to Horren in an instant, and the sword in his hand was about to pierce Horen's arm. Horren raised his perception to the extreme, and his mind and body already resonated with the image of the sword dance of Fiona, the elegant sword lady of Demacia, and his body and hands holding the sword were full of power.
In Huo Lun's eyes, a silver-white fan-shaped arc appeared on Yasuo's back, which was close at hand, it was a flaw!
I saw that Horen instantly slammed into Yasuo's back like a ghost, and hit Yasuo's back with the hilt of his sword, and at the same time, Horren also said the classic quote of the confident and proud martial artist, "The movement is too slow." ”
Yasuo wanted to stab the sword in Horen's arm, but words similar to mockery appeared in his ears, and his back was hit by the hilt of the sword, but there was a sharp pain that invaded the bone marrow, which made him shocked and angry.
Yasuo stabbed the gap, Huo Lunkong had magic power and sword skills, but he didn't have any actual combat experience at all, Yasuo's next flaw hadn't appeared yet, and he didn't know whether to continue to hit Yasuo with the hilt of his sword or retreat to a safe place.
Seeing that when Huo Lun hesitated, Yasuo turned around quickly, and Huo Lun was excited and wanted to immediately stab Yasuo with an earth sword with magic sword qi, only to see that there seemed to be a wall of wind in the air, and Huo Lun's sword was subjected to strong rebound resistance in the air.
At the same time, Yasuo's steel sword carried the power of the irascible and unstable wind, and a flash of steel slashing was about to stab at Horen.
At the critical moment, a familiar perception came from the body, as if he had used hundreds of movements, instinctively mobilized Huo Lun's muscles, and the right hand holding the earth sword was placed flat towards Yasuo, and a sword formation surrounded by a silver-white small sword appeared in front of Huo Lun.
Seeing that the steel slashing flash was blocked by the small sword, and the power of the wind on the side was also absorbed, Huo Lun immediately understood that this was Laurent's heart eye knife!
After a short delay, the power of the wind seemed to be rebounded, and a wave of magical energy struck Yasuo, but Yasuo quickly retreated, and the magical energy was immediately canceled out by the wind wall.
Taking advantage of Yasuo's surprise to retreat, Horen did not attack immediately, but jumped backwards and came to a safe area.
"Your sword has just been messed up, and the power of the wind is also irritable and unstable, if it is a fight on the battlefield, maybe you will die."
Huo Lun carefully spoke out the words slowly, observing the only descendant of the Wind Resisting Sword Technique, an indispensable genius among the samurai swordsmen on weekdays.
Yasuo was shocked by Horren's Laurent swordsmanship, and the competition at the disadvantage made Yasuo feel extremely frustrated and uncomfortable, and he was very unwilling.
Just as Huo Lun was about to continue to speak, a violent explosion sounded in his ears, and Huo Lun immediately looked towards the explosion, only to see a fire burning in the direction of the village, and his heart was cold.
