Night.

The Crown's Mansion.

Looking at her daughter, who was happily leaving with the books, Lady Ogersha's face was a little worried:

"Is it really okay to give her those books?"

Tiana was holding a steaming cup of tea in her hand, and she took a sip, the rich and mellow taste intoxicating:

"The soothing tea sent by Noxus, take a sip and taste it, it tastes good."

"You're just used to her."

Lady Ogesha looked disgruntled, but still maintained the dignity of the noble, she picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip.

It seems that from the moment she moved to the house of the lord of Xiongdu with Laxana, Tiana has taken a fancy to her daughter, and she doesn't know which aspect she likes.

doesn't know how to hide, is weak and has no scheming, and is a simple girl from the inside out.

The tea flowed in her mouth, and the refreshing sweetness and bitterness intertwined made Lady Augesha's eyes narrow with pleasure.

Especially the ethereal inspiration that emptied her mind at that moment made her even more intoxicated.

Her gaze swept over the teacup painted with exquisite carvings in her hand, and she couldn't help but sigh:

"It's hard to imagine that the savage Noxians could have such a delicate thing."

"They're very good at learning, and we have to keep up, and Laxana is like a sponge, she absorbs and helps us both strengths." Tiana said.

She saw very clearly that Noxus was using commodities for cultural aggression.

When Demacia agrees with the other party's culture and philosophy, the other party's goal will be achieved.

But they don't have a choice, so it's better to put their hearts back in their stomachs and accept them calmly.

"I'm worried she'll be bewitched by those books." Lady Augesa pondered for a moment, but still voiced her concerns, "You have never seen her before, and frankly, I don't trust her as much as you do. ”

"Everyone has been young, and everyone will make mistakes sometimes."

Tiana raised her teacup and smiled lightly.

It's just that at the moment when no one is paying attention, a touch of sadness quietly crosses her eyes.

Inadvertently, her eyes looked at an empty seat, as if to recall some bad memories.

Her gaze was a little sloppy, as if she was separated by a thick layer of the past, and said faintly:

"Look, you're mature now, but you're in a cage of shackles again."

"Tiana, forget about it. At our age, we should know that there is no right or wrong thing. Lady Ogelsa noticed her gaffe and spoke out of relief.

"yes... So, I don't want Laxana to follow our old path, she deserves a different life. ”

With that, Tiana diverted the subject, apparently not wanting to talk about it in depth.

Lady Ogelsha didn't say anything more, but continued with her words:

"Experiences don't mean adventures, and you shouldn't let her go to the temple alone."

This is what she is most dissatisfied with, as a mother, she feels that even if she wants to go, she should at least have the right to know.

But by the time she found out about it, Laxana was already out of the house.

The best heir of the family should not take any risks!

"You don't know her, there are people behind her to help." Tiana said.

"She stays at home all day." Lady Augersa frowned slightly, and the meaning of her words was self-evident.

"But that doesn't stop her from getting to know some big names, after all, good talent is always favored." Tiana said with a smile, her gaze unconsciously glancing back to the empty spot.

"Humph!"

Lady Ogosha held the teacup gracefully, and her tone was as stern as usual:

"Even Galen can't hide her little tricks, and she has collected a little in the past two years. I don't understand her talent, but her mind is too immature. ”

"I know you want to protect her, but she and Gavin are not suitable, and the crown guard needs her." Tiana shook her head.

Madame Augersa did not want her daughter to take over as crown guard, as she had always known.

Unlike the one she was born with, Lady Ogza's birth... More noble than the crown guard.

Even, she didn't dare to tell the other party about Jiawen.

"She's doing well at the moment, but I'm always going to give her more options. After all, she is my daughter after all. ”

After speaking, Lady Ogelsha stood up gracefully and left the main hall with dignified steps.

"It's a real headache... Eldred, what do you think of Laxana? ”

Tiana continued to sip her tea leisurely, waiting for Lady Ogelsa to walk away completely, before asking into the empty seat.

"It's reusable. I don't mind paving the way for her, but you understand what I want. ”

Eldred's voice was hoarse, and there seemed to be some kind of hatred in his tone.

"It's going to take a while, and then it's a little cleaner, and don't involve the crown guard." Tiana put down her teacup and replied with a blank face.

"Thank you, Tiana..."

Eldred's eyes twinkled strangely, this was the first time Tiyana had supported his plan.

"We don't have to say that between us, and I'm responsible for that." Tiana sighed.

"Don't say it, it's none of your business. Damn him and the shield! Eldred's tone and face darkened.

Tiana looked at him and sighed. Got up and walked over to Eldred, patting him on the shoulder, soothing the emotional man.

She should have stood with him very early. But for the sake of the crown, she chose to drag it all the time.

Now that Demacia was on the verge of danger, she had nothing to worry about. The future of the crown guard is Laxana, and it's time for her to live for herself.

"You and I are one, Eldred..."

……

Noxus Tent.

A bright light from the rune circle lit up from the center, and Sivana, who had just recovered from her injuries, looked vigilant and assumed an attacking posture.

Darius waved her and stood up neatly from his seat.

The dark blue light grew thicker and thicker, and a figure slowly emerged from it.

"You're here." Seeing who was coming, Darius grinned.

Sivana blinked, a look of surprise on her face, it was the first time she had seen Darius look like this.

They were now on the verge of the north, and they had encountered a lot of harassment from barbarians along the way.

Darius's brutality in the face of her enemies impressed her.

"I'll give you a raid."

Ryan's figure emerged from the circle, looked at Darius, who stood up to greet him, and nodded in acknowledgment.

After saying that, he moved his gaze to Shivana, and praised with a gentle expression:

"Is this our daughter of the dragon? There is a lot of power in his body, and he must be a powerful warrior in the future. ”

"You've won the prize, Noxus Sivana has seen Your Excellency the Mage!" Shivana bowed slightly.

Because her adoptive father is a mage, she has a natural affection and respect for mages.

The getting along with the military camp these days also quickly made her recognize her identity as a Noxian.

The partners in the barracks are very enthusiastic, everything is according to the rules, and everyone will not discriminate against her special

Seriously, she loved it here.

"He is the Governor of the Council of Trevary, the most powerful mage in the Empire, Ryan Meredith." Darius duly introduced.

"Captain Meredith, I've heard of your name." Shivana was in awe.

It wasn't Darius who was the most vocal in the Trifali Warband, but Ryan, who had led them to victory in countless wars, and she felt this very deeply.

Almost every veteran of the warband has Ryan on his lips.

"It's just a name. I heard your mother was after you. Ryan quickly got the conversation to the point.

"Yes," Shivana nodded, hesitantly, "she's strong." ”

"No matter how strong it is, it's a dragon, and Darius might be able to slaughter it." Ryan's tone was rather relaxed, and it was clear that he didn't care about it.

"You can give it a try." At the mention of the battle, Darius's expression suddenly turned cold.

He hadn't killed a dragon, but he didn't think it would be that strong.

"Now that I've joined Noxus, I'm relaxed. I can see the worry in your eyes, and if you don't mind, we'll get rid of her now. Ryan suggested.

He's here to deal with the dragon and add a collection to the Empire and the Mage Tower.

The outcasts who were expelled by the dragon clan are rare.

"Council Chief, I just want to join you in killing her! But—" Shivana paused, still worried.

My Healing Game

The Trifali Warband is indeed very strong, and she has seen it these days.

But compared to the Long Wei she had seen, it was still a little weaker.

"There's nothing to be afraid of. Remember, Shivana, the Noxians are not afraid of strong enemies! Darius looked ahead, his tone unmistakable.

"Relax, just a little help from you. She has nothing to fear. ”

The confidence on Ryan and Darius' faces made Sivana slowly let go of the uneasiness in her heart.

She suppressed the surging emotions in her heart, clenched her hands tightly, forced her heart to calm down, she took a deep breath, turned her gaze to Ryan, and her body tensed straight:

"Yes! Speaker, what should I do? ”

"Give me some of your blood, she can use it to locate you, and in the same way, we can track her back that way." Ryan said lightly.

"Good!"

Without hesitation, Shivana slashed a neat wound on her arm and dripped blood into the clear vial that Ryan handed her.

Then, at Ryan's signal, Shivana stood aside respectfully and waited.

"Buzz!"

Vast magical power surged out of Ryan's body, and the blood beads in the bottle floated one by one, outlining red runes in the air in an orderly manner.

"They seem to be evil..."

Looking at the dark red runes with blood condensed, Shivana muttered under her breath.

"A small spell in the special department of rune magic - Blood Hunter. Based on the two runes 'Ruthless Hunter' and 'Taste of Blood', plus the remaining 30 related runes, it is a fifth-order magic. ”

Ryan casually explained while manipulating the magic.

Darius watched silently as the runes fused with each other, the red blood forming countless half-illusory silk threads, and the self-operated tent stretched outward.

"This is the runic magic you created? Can it be popularized in the military? ”

"It can only be popularized among mages at the moment. However, I can enchant your weapons and add some useful features. ”

Ryan concentrates on manipulating magic, which often takes a long time to cast.

Fortunately, rune magic can save him a lot of effort, otherwise he would have to be like a rigid censor, constantly monitoring the magic that spreads outward.

"Function? For example? ”

Darius glanced at the black tomahawk-black cutter inside the tent. This is the weapon that Darkwell once rewarded him for his military exploits, and it is invincible.

"Cut off everything." Ryan said lightly, "Or, pull all the enemies in front of you in front of you." ”

"I want them all." Darius grinned.

"As long as you have enough merit points." In this regard, Ryan was quite generous, "The Commander means that you will be an example, and now the Empire needs a weighty person to go to the veteran shop to complete the exchange." ”

"Hahaha, no problem, I'll go back to the Immortal Fortress next time." Darius said happily, excitement flashing in his eyes.

After all, there's nothing more to be happy about than boosting your strength!

After chatting for a while, Ryan's eyes suddenly narrowed slightly:

"Found it."

"Where?" Shivana instantly tensed.

"In that direction... It should be in the mountains near the Tukugul plain. ”

Ryan looked southwest, frowning slightly:

"I remember that it was not yet part of the Empire."

"No, that area is ruled by a kingdom, and the damn king is oscillating between us and Demacia... If it weren't for the Immortal Fortress, I would have destroyed him long ago. Darius had an undisguised murderous intent on his face.

He liked that small country at all, and the old king used his power to oppress the people.

The aristocracy and the royal family controlled the entire country, and the rest were their slaves.

"This time, it's time for the Empire to liberate Tukugul." There was bloodlust in Darius' eyes.

Ryan looked at him amusedly, and said, "The kingdom will be handed over to you, and the dragon will be handed over to me." ”

"No problem. Let's go! ”

Darius walked out of the tent with the axe and wiped out a weak nation, without even having to mobilize all of the Trifali warbands.

"Let's go, Dragon-Blood Warrior of Noxus." Ryan's gaze shifted to Shivana.

"Knox Sasaurus's Blood Warrior Princess..."

Sivana whispered silently, her expression was quite complicated, and if it were a casual conversation, she would probably have digested it for a while.

But now, time is of the essence!

She put away her chaotic thoughts, raised her head firmly to look at Ryan's warm eyes, and blurted out what she had been ready for:

"I deserve it, Lord Parliament, but I'll do my best to make myself worthy of this name!"

Every powerful hero of the empire has its own title, but she is really deserved for her lack of merit.

"Show your strength and fight for what you want to pursue, and I look forward to hearing this title from the Immortal Fortress one day."

With that, Ryan turned around and walked out of the tent.

As soon as he came out of the camp, before he could fly, he saw Sivana prostrate on the ground, and there was a huge tremor on the ground under his feet, and the girl's body changed violently in the next moment.

Wow –

Two pairs of fiery red wings stretched out from her back, her small hands and feet turned into four pairs of sharp claws, and the small human head transformed into the giant head of a dragon.

"Lord, please let me do my part."

After turning into a dragon, Sivana lowered her body and lowered her head, motioning for Ryan to stand on top of her.

Ryan smiled at the determination in her eyes and stepped onto her back covered in fiery scales.

"Roar!"

Sivana let out a dragon groan of rage, her wings flapping, and she quickly rose into the sky.

At the same time, Darius's army had been assembled, and thousands of soldiers roared and rode on tigers towards Tukugul.

For a while, the wilderness was full of tigers roaring and dragons, and dust was flying.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

The limbs of the tiger collided sonorously with the earth, making a passionate sound ten thousand times more violent than the war drums, and the tremor was as huge as ten thousand carp crossing the river, setting off layers of loess waves. Even the sandstorms rolling up in the heart of the desert are no match for this momentum.

The army galloped across the wilderness, and Darius leaned over his mount, the Black Tiger, with his great axe on his back.

Feeling the strong wind in his ears, he raised his head to look at Ryan on the back of the dragon in the sky, and suddenly pulled the corners of his mouth to the soldier beside him and asked:

"Wadrin, what do you think I'm worse than him?"

He could feel that the Trefali Warband's identification with him was not as high as that of Ryan.

This situation is really normal, after all, this army is a private soldier brought out by Ryan.

"General, we can see your distress, but we lack a common experience." Wadrin looked regretful.

"Experience?"

Darius frowned slightly, as if he had a feeling.

"Yes, you're missing an opportunity to showcase. General Meredith is a god to us, and you take his place, and it is up to you to conquer us with strength. Wadrin said truthfully.

He can understand Darius's thoughts, and he also understands that the other party is very strong.

Wadrin communicated with his comrades, and after getting along these days, they admitted that Darius was strong, but they were still a little unconvinced.

Their former chief was the Strategist Commander Svein, whose wisdom had led them to defeat the weak countless times.

Their former lieutenant is Ryan Meredith, now the Governor of the Trifali Council, and the power of magic strikes them in awe and adoration every time they go to war.

And Darius is a special case, as the new commander-in-chief, unlike Zhao Xin, who used to be their comrade-in-arms, which naturally makes them feel awkward.

In particular, he didn't show his true charisma.

"General Darius, maybe this war is your chance to prove yourself." Wadrin reminded loudly.

They saw Darius shoot in the true sense of the word, only the last time the opponent faced Kyle, the winged protector.

But Darius, as the suppressed side, obviously did not have much to shine on.

"Show yourself... And a shared experience..."

Darius tightened the reins in his hand, and there was a hint of clarity in his expression.

He liked this rebellious army, Noxus had always obeyed only the strong.

And he will use his strength to conquer this army and prove that he is qualified to be their commander.

Ryan in the sky seemed to sense something, and a light smile rose into the corners of his mouth.

His figure stood straight on Sivana's back like a statue, and the wind in the air swept in all directions, as if blocked by an invisible barrier.

Not even Ryan's robe blew up for half a minute.
