"Kid, stay at home and don't go out." A woman dressed in coarse linen whispered to her child at home.

"Why, Mom?" The boy asked puzzled, and the woman shook her head with a complicated expression, "Demacia is about to change." “

The morning sun shone on the bleak palace grounds, and the damage to the ground and the blood left on the ground were still clear from the shock of Galio's landing. The whole country entered a state of high tension, and the fearless vanguard, led by Galen, stood by Gavin's side early in the morning to protect the new king of Demacia.

Laxana was locked up in her own home, leaning against her bedroom window, watching the morning glimmer, and everything from last night seemed to wander in her mind. Soldiers came to search the streets, and the whole country went under high martial law.

A blue eagle flies in the air, and a woman dressed in blue walks on the road with a delicate crossbow. The brigade led by Zhao Xin rushed back to the royal capital from Mithril City overnight, and the elite troops of Demacia guarded the outside of the palace, Zhao Xin knelt in front of the coffin abroad, his face was sad, and his body could not suppress the tremor of his body.

"Your Majesty......" Zhao Xin looked at the young heir, who is now the new King Jiawen II, and tears slipped from the corners of his eyes uncontrollably.

Jiawen looked at the head of the palace who had served their father and son since he was a child, and this loyal servant, who had always been inseparable from his father, now had a haggard face and a trance-like expression. Zhao Xin happened to be sent to Mithril City a few days ago, and when he returned to the royal capital, the old king had already passed away.

"Hurry up, we need you, Zhao Xin." Jiawen helped Zhao Xin up, and Galen behind him felt very uncomfortable when he saw Zhao Xin's old face. His eyes were filled with anger and resentment, and the scene of Silas Square stuning him and Laxana's face came to mind.

"You have changed the throne to the throne, Your Majesty ......", Zhao Xin's old voice made Jiawen's heart choke, and Jiawen responded gently, "Can you help me find Fiona, the patriarch of the Laurent family?" I want to see her. ”

"Of course." Zhao Xin bowed slightly and retreated.

Last night's riot in the royal capital made all the powerful and big families nervous to the extreme, and the main threat to Silas and his equal rights puja were still hiding in the shadows, Fiona wiped his rapier with a determined gaze.

"Patriarch, the palace steward is here." A waiter informed Fiona outside the door.

"Got it, I'll be right here." Fiona tucked her sword back into the scabbard at her waist, pinned the family crest to her chest, and then turned to go downstairs.

"Chief Zhao Xin." Fiona nodded.

"Your Majesty wants to see you." Zhao Xin's expression was tired, and his voice was slightly hoarse, Fiona knew in her heart that Zhao Xin was referring to the new king, "I will go with you immediately." ”

Hidden dwellings

After Ahri got up, the gauze covering the window let in a little sunlight, and Ahri walked down the stairs slowly, and saw Ke Wei sitting on a chair waiting for him.

"You seem to be up early." Ahri said nonchalantly, her eyes scanning the surroundings and seeing that there was nothing out of the ordinary.

"Everyone has already gotten up, Demacia is going to change, I'm afraid you are the only one who sleeps so peacefully." Ke Wei's tone was mocking and contemptuous, Ahri's good-looking eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and he said angrily, "What do you mean in the end, it's better to say it directly." ”

"You have other plans, otherwise you will never stop me from killing Galen." Ke Wei's eyes were cold, Ahri was shocked when he heard this, a trace of waves flashed on his face, and he quickly said in a calm tone, "I'm just carrying out Silas's instructions, and if there is any trouble, I want to take them out in advance." “

"yes, what a clever fox." Ke Wei's eyebrows were raised, with a look of disdain, the anger in Ahri's heart instantly gassed, the twin gems on his wrist flashed with golden light, Ahri's palm condensed a magic ball of light, and then flew straight to Ke Wei's side, so scared that Ke Wei almost fell from the chair.

"There's no warning next time, and foxes aren't easy to mess with, so you'd better put your attitude and words right!" Ahri left the house and walked out into the street.

Ke Wei's expression still had the horror just now, the magic ball just now contained extremely rich magic power, if it hit Ke Wei directly just now, Ke Wei was only afraid that his life was already in danger, and his eyes flashed with a trace of ferocity.

Inside the royal palace

"Your Majesty." Fiona saluted Gavin, who nodded slightly.

"The purpose of letting you come is simple, to protect me before the enthronement ceremony." Gavin's gaze was resolute, and Fiona looked at the fearless pioneers beside him in confusion for a moment. Gavin looked at Fiona's expression and then explained slowly.

"Last night, the sparse personnel guards, my father and I almost died together, who do you think has the most benefit from such a good plan?"

"Ge Jie?" Fiona whispered the name of the patriarch of the Kofi family, and Gavin was gloomy and silent.

The Coffey family is one of the big families that have expanded the territory of Demacia, and they have always occupied an extraordinary position among the powerful, and the power is also the largest.

"A few days ago, I was very confused about the fact that Chief Zhao Xin went to Mithril City, it is said that it is to sweep away some outlaws, but it always feels far-fetched."

Ge Jie personally came to the palace to find his father, and talked about Zhao Xin's courage and perseverance would be a strong agent for the army, and his father finally reluctantly agreed. In addition, the identity of the Illuminator Society was soon revealed by Silas. ”

When Fiona heard the name of the Illuminator, her heart was thrilled, this group of mages hidden in the shadow of the country was a secret that a few powerful people and some large family patriarchs knew secret, and no one dared to mention it casually. Even Fiona learned that there was such a group in the country when she was reading her father's notes by chance.

"I can arrange for the swordsmen and personnel of the clan to stabilize the people around me, and I will try my best to adjust and deal with possible situations in terms of trade and economy."

"Very good, I will tell all the big families to do so, their performance is naturally worth looking forward to." Jiawen's words were meaningful, and Fiona already knew in her heart that the first command of the new emperor was the touchstone of the attitudes of the various families.

"Your Majesty, do you think that some people will arrange for someone to assassinate you, so you summoned me?"

"Because of you, the loyalty of the Laurent family, I trust me, the power of the dreadnought vanguard is limited after all, if those people dare to act, they must have a careful plan, only a supreme sword master earthquake is the best way to deal with it." Gavin's gaze was deep, and Fiona bowed her head when she heard this, "I will defend Your Majesty's safety to the death with the glory of the family sword." “

Hearing this, Gavin turned and left, and Fiona instructed the attendants who came with him to go back and take care of their clothes, while she toured the palace and familiarized herself with the various paths of the palace. Looking at Gavin and Galen's figure upstairs, Fiona was determined to seize this opportunity, a great opportunity to make the family famous and prosperous.

Ahri walked on the street, the street was deserted, most of the soldiers were patrolling, the whole country was in a state of high risk and high pressure, Ahri wanted to take a break and bask in the sun, but the solemn atmosphere on the street made Ahri disgusted.

Just as Ahri was about to turn around and go back to the base to take a look, a woman in blue approached her, looking very different. Ahri's blue eyes are very beautiful, and she also gets the other person's gaze.

"You look special, Metropoliser?"

"You're walking around here too?" Ahri didn't answer her question, and asked the woman in blue what she was doing here.

"I'm here to search for fugitives, and now that the king is not at peace, you'd better stay at home."

"Searching for fugitives, you don't seem to be the same as those soldiers, it's all because of that Silas and his affirmative action?"

"You know a lot, I'm acting with my partner Warlock." The woman's finger pointed to the sky, and Ahri looked up to see a blue eagle hovering above them, as if the eagle was also looking at Ahri.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Ahri."

"Quinn."

The two of them divided their things with a few simple words, and the tense atmosphere and desolate streets along the way made Ahri feel very uncomfortable, such turmoil and the suppression of the forbidden demons for many years, and how much pain and silence the people of this land had suffered. People here also need to heal the wounds in their hearts.

Ahri stroked the twin gems in the palm of his hand, and walked to the familiar shop with a heavy face, the person at the bar glanced at Ahri, then nodded slightly, Ahri quietly walked to the shadow behind the store, and carefully leaned down into the secret passage.

As soon as Ahri came to the door of the room, he heard Ke Wei's voice, as if it was mobilizing everyone's emotions.

"The king is dead, but the prince is still alive, and he will inherit the throne and implement the policies and institutions of the past, how can Demacia usher in true freedom. Only by eliminating the imperial family and abolishing the emperor can there be real equality! ”

Ke Wei's words were intense, and the people around her were all emotionally mobilized by her speech, Silas's face was complicated, and Matthew and the others couldn't see their faces clearly when they turned their backs to Ahri.

"Ahri is here." Silas' face softened, and he walked towards Ahri.

"I'll see if everyone is okay, I'm relieved that everyone is okay." Ahri replied a little shyly, and everyone around her smiled back.

"Yes, people with this heart will come so late, since you are here, it is better to prepare for the next action." Ke Wei's words were slightly mocking, which made Ahri unhappy, which showed that the warning in the morning was not of much use, and they were all human beings at this time, and Ahri could only endure it.

"Action? What are your thoughts? ”

"Needless to say, of course, it is to assassinate the prince next, which is the most direct way to stimulate the entire country."

"Everyone's injuries haven't healed yet, and the palace is already heavily guarded at the moment, do you want to take everyone to death, or rush there yourself." Ahri's words were sonorous and powerful, and Ke Wei retorted when he heard it.

"If you don't do it now, the army will return to the royal capital in a few days, and it will be even more impossible at that time."

The atmosphere in the room was solemn to the extreme, and everyone was silent for a while, and after a while, Silas got up and looked at Ke Wei with complicated eyes.
