Chapter 63: Acceptance
The starry sky grew dark. Although the sky is full of stars in the Land of Runecraft, when night really comes, everything around is blurred.
In the center of the Runeterra, two pillars of brilliant golden light illuminated the space that should have been dark. All the people gathered here for important reasons were now focusing on the tall man who was shrouded in one of the pillars of light, and they listened carefully and curiously to the man's confident and calm explanation.
"I know that the reason you are gathered here is the Doomsday prophecy from the mouth of Master Kieran, and it is indeed difficult for me to deny this prophecy and get you to accept it. Jiawen took a light breath and said with a straight face, the things that determined the future direction of the mainland made him dare not relax a little. "But, please think about it carefully, in Master Kieran's doomsday prophecy, the time when the continent was invaded by otherworldly creatures is today, right? But can there be otherworldly creatures that threaten the continent today? In a sense, this seems to be a deviation from Master Kieran's prophecy, or rather, Master Kieran's prophecy has appeared, a misunderstanding. ”
Before Jiawen could finish speaking, many pairs of eyes full of doubt and anger pierced at him. Almost all of the owners of the gaze are from Ionia, and on Ionia, it is a felony to suspect Kieran, the keeper of time. But after calming down and thinking about it carefully, what Jiawen said does have some truth. If it is really like Kieran's doomsday prediction, then they should have started a great war with the otherworldly creatures who invaded the continent by now, how could they face Gavin IV from Demacia in front of them as losers after the death of the gods.
"Even if Master Kieran's prophecy is really wrong, that doesn't mean his prophecy is wrong, right?" Ryze smiled and suddenly said in a loud voice to Gavin.
Sensing the sparkle in Ryze's blue eyes, Gavin smiled as well, but didn't respond to him.
"No, you're wrong. Karma slowly opened her green pupils and said in a voice without a trace of emotion, "Deviation is a mistake. Master Kieran's prophecies have always been accurate and never deviated. If you say so, it is an insult to Master Kieran. ”
Ruiz shook his head slightly, silent, still with a smile on his face.
If the ruler of Ionia, Karma at the god level, said so, then who has any reason to still think that Kieran's prophecy is not a problem? I have to say that this "guidance" of Ruiz is very clever, borrowing Karma's hand to help Gavin. This not only saves Jiawen a lot of effort, but also makes others keep their mouths shut. After all, if they question Gavin again, they will add Karma in passing. On the mainland, although Kalmar's status is not as good as Kieran's, it is definitely not much worse. And according to Karma, if anyone insists that Kieran's prophecy is correct, it could rise to the level of insulting Kieran, the timekeeper. I have to say that Ruiz is really full of "wisdom".
"This guy is really cunning and cunning......" The idea appeared in the hearts of many Demacians, of course, this is completely non-malicious.
Lux looked at her teacher with beautiful golden eyes, and after receiving the other party's instructions to silence her, she covered her mouth and laughed, and stood silently beside Ize.
"As I said earlier, Master Kieran's prophecy is just a misunderstanding. Gavin smiled slightly and didn't look at Ruiz, "The end will indeed come, but not today." And I came here from another world, and the real purpose of holding God's Silence is to unite the forces of the continent and resist the real end that will come half a month later. ”
At this point, Gavin paused and did not continue. Information needs to be accepted by people, and if too much is revealed at once, it will be unacceptable for people for a while, so he is willing to wait and wait for his explanation to be slowly accepted by them.
"I see, in this way, it may really make sense. Jace breathed a sigh of relief, his words filled with relief.
"Perhaps, that's the only way it makes sense......," Leona whispered, staring at the clear pale yellow pupils on the other side.
"Is it because you are afraid that you will not be believed, and it will be difficult to gather the strength of the continent to choose such an extreme way......" Soraka's voice was full of admiration, and her gaze turned soft. "In a sense, he's doing all this for us. When he said this, Soraka deliberately blessed the energy so that the words could be heard by everyone.
Jiawen, who was thought to be a possible doomsday at the beginning, has always been to save the continent and for them, the people on the continent. This reversal was unacceptable to some people for a while, but if you think about it, only this explanation is reasonable.
"Exactly. Gavin nodded lightly and cast a kind look at Soraka, "Whether you believe it or not, I think you all have the right to know." ”
This approach was completely forced by Jiawen. It's like a dangerous gamble, a gamble that Gawain must never lose. Because if you lose, it's all over. But fortunately, in this dangerous gamble, Jiawen won, and it was a complete victory.
"So, as the victor of God's Silence, I offer you my first condition: in the month and a half of the end of the world, all of you will recharge your strength, gather all your strength, and without any reservations, and join me in resisting the real end. Without any pause, Gavin spoke coherently in a heavy, majestic voice. Whether you believe it or not, there is no reason to refuse.
As the last note of Jiawen fell, the surroundings suddenly became extraordinarily quiet.
"Accepted. After a long silence, Leona said decisively. Even if they were skeptical, they had no reason to refuse, and that was true.
"...... with the next two conditions" A smile appeared on Gavin's face as Leona accepted.
Hearing this, most of the people's nerves tensed again, and they once again turned all their eyes to the tall man. After all, they can only be sent passively now, regardless of the other party's reason. In this environment, no matter who you are, you can't help but be nervous. Except, of course, for the Demacians, who all believed that Gavin IV, who would inherit the throne of Demacia, would not do anything to harm them.
"On the second condition, I hope that you will face the end with all your might, and on the third condition, you will immediately return to your country and begin to prepare for the end. Calm words came out of Gavin's mouth, coherent and without any ups and downs.
Leona's face changed, and she couldn't keep her calm because the man who had surprised her so much had shocked her again. This time, not only Leona's side, but even several people behind Jiawen also changed color.
The conditions proposed by Jiawen are too surprising. What is this? In a sense, isn't this just waiting for Jiawen to give up these two conditions? At this moment, Jiawen once again became the focus of the audience, and everyone knew that after today, they would never be able to forget that tall man. Everyone knew what that meant, and even Karma, who had always been calm as water, had mood swings at this moment.
Being stared at by countless pairs of eyes, Jiawen just smiled slightly. Giving up these two conditions may really be a huge loss, but from Jiawen's point of view, if these two conditions are retained, it will leave a shackle on the hearts of people on the mainland. He could sense that many people were not very convinced of themselves, and that they chose to accept and believe their explanations, in large part because of the silence of God. He is well aware of the truth that "if you are too rigid, it is easy to break", and since his goal has been achieved - there is the first condition, and all the people on the continent will follow him to resist the end of the world, then Jiawen does not mind taking a step back and leaving room for the other party. This is also his way of governing the country: the combination of governing people with strength and governing people with reason.
After Jiawen said these two conditions, everyone looked at Jiawen with a little more kindness in their eyes.
"Can you do it?" said Kavin smiled, his eyes shining with a unique light.
"Accepted. After being stunned for a moment, Leona said in a soft voice unconsciously. As soon as Leona finished speaking, the two golden pillars of light that enveloped her and Gavin quickly rose upwards and dissipated into the air.
Negotiations concluded. This time, the miracle that caused a sensation on the entire continent, made future generations talk about it, and was widely praised, and was called the "Battle of God's Silence" by later generations, and the miracle of challenging the entire continent with the strength of a few people and achieving victory really came to an end.
"So, time is tight, can you do me a favor?" Leona's softness smiled at the corner of Gavin's lips as he said toward the starry sky.
"Degladly, Prince Demacia. A dull and ethereal voice came from all directions, and with this voice, the light of the stars filled with spatial energy overflowed from above, and suddenly filled the entire space, "I will temporarily lend you the power of space that I use the stars as a guide, as long as there is a place where you can see the stars, all of you can teleport there." ”
Embellishment of the vast stars, this world is rendered as beautiful as a fairyland.
"Please also gather all your strength here a week before the end of the world begins. Resist the apocalypse, the few of us who are here are not enough, we need the army ......" Nodding slightly in a certain direction in the sky, Gavin said loudly.
Hearing this, Leona unconsciously glanced at Gavin. She was indeed too conceited, and she once arrogantly believed that as long as she had the "Source Plan" to reach the level of the main god, she would be enough to resist the apocalypse. So when she gathered her strength to defend against the apocalypse at the beginning, she didn't even think about the army. She knew she wasn't God, and she realized that she was no match for Gavin.
"Facts speak louder than words. Although Karma's gaze at Jiawen was also softened, she still said in a calm voice, "After half a month, you can verify whether what you say is true......
"You're always surprising......" Sindra looked at Gavin with purple pupils and a curious smile on her face.
"Now please return to your respective camps, recuperate, resist, the real doomsday. "In the blue space, a low, powerful voice reverberates.
Gavin has become a leader, at least in the eyes of some.
......
......
The void is full of mysterious and empty unknown worlds.
Marzaha stood there silently, for a long time, purple energy converging in his hands.
An extremely deep voice sounded hoarse in the dark space: "No, I'm going to change my plans, Gavin IV, it's really a variable......"
