Chapter 24: Escape
The weakened group of illuminators arrived at the Colossus of Justice Galio, their bloody hands weakly touching Galio's body. The magic around the illuminator group was absorbed by Gario, and the Colossus's eyes slowly opened.
"King, Laxana, ...... the palace." The man's body fell weakly, and the guards who supported him immediately led everyone to the nuns' infirmary.
Galio's gaze was fixed on the palace in front of him, and after a short period of accumulation, he instantly flew into the air, and the huge forbidden demon stone body flew straight from the sky to the palace, and the open space outside the palace was violently shocked. As they prepare to evacuate, Silas, Ahri, Matthew, and Cooper are knocked on their backs by the sudden arrival of Galio.
The tremor was like an earthquake, and Laxana felt the familiar sound and tremors and immediately ran out of the palace. In the distance, Galen walked quickly with a weak step and a giant sword in his hand, and when he saw Galio's body, Galen's heart was anxious, "Laxana...... ”
In the open space of the palace, Galio's body blocked Silas and his party, Laxana and several dignitaries in the palace were at the gate of the palace, Galen and Rhona in the distance were also hurrying forward, and the army of the capital was rushing to the army from all sides.
"I really didn't expect this big guy to really come, and my Silas threat is really not small." Silas laughed at himself coldly, his eyes looked at the waning moon in the sky, and his eyes immediately became resolute and cold.
Silas's palm erupted with a strong blood-red magic power, and then exploded instantly, hitting Galio directly, only to see that the violent magic power touched Galio's forbidden magic stone's body and was instantly absorbed.
Galio's massive stone fist slammed into the ground, knocking Silas over again.
"This man kills the king, execute him immediately, Galio!" Ggerger, the patriarch of the Coffey family beside Laxana, immediately ordered, and Galio heard that the violent wind around his body and wings was condensed, even if Silas could obtain infinite magic from the Forbidden Stone, but the opponent in front of him was a giant as tall and self-aware Forbidden Stone, and Silas had no way to do it.
Silas turned to look at Laxana with a soft gaze and a wry smile on his face, "Farewell, little light." Silas' miserable smile and look reminded Laxana of the friendship with Silas in the dungeon and the kindness he had shown to him along the way, and the complex emotions of guilt and anger exploded instantly.
"Wait, big man!" Laxana's voice caused Galio's wind to pause for a moment, and the girl with the warm glow, Galio remembers, was his little friend.
"Glimmer, what's the matter? This man killed the king, and I was instructed to execute him. “
"Do you still want to save him? You are the young lady of the crown guard family, and the royal family has not yet held you accountable for being close to him, do you want to openly influence the execution? Gejie angrily confronted Laxana.
"It's not what you think, the whole of Demacia is in turmoil right now, and the execution here is not the best way to deal with it, I ......."
"You're clearly covering up! What excuse can be used to clear the guilt of killing kings? Now he will definitely die, hurry up! Galio. “
Laxana's eyes looked at Ahri who had seen her in the Nuns' Hospital before, and Ahri immediately released her charm to Ge Jie, Ge Jie's expression was immediately sluggish, and the corners of his mouth blurred two words, "Wait......"
The hesitant Galio was very confused when he heard this, and in a distraction, Ahri's body ghostly burst into Galio's feet, and his dexterous body escaped in the clearing, and Galio's bulky body was at a loss for a moment.
Silas, Matthew, and Cooper immediately and scattered, Galio's giant stone fist shot several times and fled the perimeter of the palace, and Galen and Rhona appeared at the end of Silas' sight. At this moment, the streets were full of people, and the guards and the mages of the Equal Rights Festival were constantly fighting, and the scene was very chaotic.
How to deal with Galio's dilemma, civilian soldiers and criminals are mixed together, and Galio's body will be injured by mistake once he shoots.
"Mr. Ge Jie, how are you, you were instantly confused just now, and it scared me." Lux looked at Ge Jie with an anxious expression, and Ge Jie relieved himself with a blank expression, "Silas? They fled!? ”
"Galio will execute them immediately! Immediately! Gejie shouted hoarsely, and Gario replied in embarrassment, "There are a lot of soldiers and civilians together, and I can't do anything about it." “
"You useless thing! Leave nothing alone and kill them immediately. “
Galio was unmoved, and in his heart, like the creator Durang, the safety of Demacia and the safety of the civilian population were the first priority, as Lux watched Gurdjie's hoarse screams, and his heart was full of doubts.
The palace had several times as many guards as it does today, and most of the army had happened to be deployed in other cities, and were now coming on horseback. Today, the king and the magnates meet at this time of the night, and everything seems to have been deliberately arranged to lure Silas into the palace at night to kill the king.
There are very few people who know about the Illuminators, even the aristocratic dreadnought vanguard warriors like Galen don't know, so who notified the Illuminators who came to the rescue today, or arranged it. Now Gerger's look gave Laxana the feeling that she had used up Silas and was about to kill her. Laxana didn't dare to think about it anymore and immediately ran to the exit.
Under the cover of night, Silas and his party immediately fled to the path, Galen and Rhona were blocked by the mages who were strifeting on the road, and Galen, who had not recovered from serious injuries, had a great time coping with it, and at the moment of crisis, a bright ball of light flashed from the palm of Lux's hand that ran towards Galen to shelter the two in the light mask and avoid the attack of the equal rights mage.
Galen's expression was shocked, then angry, disappointed, and finally helpless and miserable. After Silas retreated, the mages of the streets began to flee one after another. Helplessly, the palace was understaffed and the wounded soldiers and civilians who fell to the ground, and the soldiers simply did not have time to chase after so many mages. And they scattered in all directions, and they didn't know how to catch up in all directions.
Galen leaned weakly against Rhona, and Laxana came to Galen, "Brother." “
"I'll take him back first, if you brothers and sisters have anything to say, you can talk about it later." Rhona broke Galen's silence.
"Okay, thank you, Rhona."
Rhona helped Galen back to the corona's house, and Laxana followed behind without saying a word, and after taking Galen back to the room, Rhona left, carefully closing the door.
"Growing up, you were always special, and I still remember when you were a kid when your fingers glowed, but I always wanted to forget about it." Galen's mouth forced a smile and his eyes flickered.
Laxana didn't reply, and there was a deathly silence in the air, "Brother, I am a member of the group of illuminators, the law recognized by this country. ”
"My sister is a mage!? At the moment, I feel inexplicably more relaxed, for so many years, I have been deceiving myself...... But Laxana, you know how Uncle died. Magic poisons people's minds, why is my sister a mage! Galen's emotions gradually became agitated, and a tear slipped from the corner of his eye.
"No, brother, magic can also protect this country, Demacia has always had a secret team of mages, how long can the white forbidden magic stone wall block the external crisis? An empire without magic is fragile after all. ”
"Nonsense! Demacia has forbidden demons for hundreds of years, with the will and courage of the warriors, unity, and unity, the great empire of today's has been created, and magic will only bring turmoil, it is that Silas, isn't he a typical representative? ”
"Silas, he'......" Laxana looked at Galen's high emotions and red eyes, but her whispered response was interrupted by Galen, "Don't mention that sinner, Laxanna, why do you want to contact someone like that, my sister, shouldn't be a mage at all!" “
With Galen's roar, Laxanne's emotions finally broke down, and tears broke down. After all, the brother and sister were honest with each other at this moment, and even more so with the powerful of the country, and Laxana left Galen's room with her eyes covered, and returned to her own room, crying bitterly.
The shadow is not intolerant of the light, but the shadow follows the light. This is the truth that I realized when I first communicated with Galio, this country needs a symbol of the national will and strength of the fearless pioneer, and it also needs the shadow of the illuminator to secretly protect the country, and the shadow and light should go hand in hand.
But even if she had reached her own will and path, the opposition and disgust of her loved ones were still a sharp knife in Laxana's heart, fear, love, worry, and all kinds of emotions for Galen were intertwined in her heart, making Laxana's emotions out of control.
Ahri and Silas returned to the base, only to see Ke Wei bandaging his wounds and sitting in his seat with a leisurely face and drinking drinks.
"Seems to have been a success tonight?" Ke Wei looked at Silas and the wounds of the others, and saw that Ahri was the only one who seemed to be intact, and then looked at her mockingly, "Our Vasaya members seem to have been very successful in their work. ”
Ke Wei's strange voice disgusted Ahri, and Silas defended Ahri when he heard this, "Thanks to her, we were able to escape, the king is dead, and our initial announcement has shocked the country, thank you, Ahri." ”
"It's nothing, Ms. Ke Wei is also very effective." Ahri looked at Ke Wei contemptuously, and Ke Wei smiled back, "Of course, thank you for your care and treatment." ”
It seemed that the words of thanks, but the eyes were full of coldness, which made Ahri feel very unhappy, "Where to rest tonight, or that room?" ”
"Naturally, do you expect to arrange some mansion for you?" Ke Wei's mocking tone was ignored by Ahri, Silas looked at Ke Wei seriously, and Matthew and Cooper sat down at the table to replenish their water and energy.
After sitting down for a while, Ahri returned to the hidden house with a few people, Ke Wei walked slowly but could walk on his own, without the help of others, returned to his room, Ahri collapsed on the bed, recalling what she saw today really frightened her, after a simple wash, back to the bed again.
Although Ahri is not very accustomed to the urban equipment here, he has adapted to a lot of life when he was on a boat before. Lying on the bed, drowsiness soon swept over Ahri, and it didn't take long for Ahri to fall into a deep sleep.
