Chapter 368: The Sand of the Homeland
The Ascension Pirates didn't stay in the harbor for long.
Soon, they had borrowed a multi-manchulen beast from the Empire and headed in the direction of Narima.
After walking some distance.
"Hey, Karen, when did the boss have such a good relationship with that noble woman?"
Silo sat on top of the Slow Beast with the withered grass in his mouth, and his eyes looked at the tent on the back of the Slow Beast from time to time.
Karen is a lean, dark-skinned, hearty teenager who was born in Shurima, and is currently sitting next to Silo in an earthy yellow windbreaker.
He didn't look behind him as often as Sillo did, but looked at the nearby desert scene with burning eyes. It's as if this desolate land has a great attraction for him.
Hearing Xiluo's question, he replied with a happy smile:
"Brother Xiluo, if you don't know, where would I know these things."
"Cut, I'll just ask casually." Silo's face was full of boredom.
This time I went to Nerima Jar, and Sivir didn't bring many people, and the total number of people was less than ten.
In the case that there are not many people with him, Xavier also brought the weak aristocratic woman named Cassiopeia, which keenly made Silo feel that something was wrong.
But it turned out that he had no talent for thinking about such things.
It's okay to let him drink and make friends, but thinking about these things will only make him more troublesome.
"Damn, I wasn't like that before, it must have been Lucian who taught me."
Silo grunted and shook his head, trying to free himself from the chaos of thoughts.
Even for this, he focused his attention on Karen beside him.
"How beautiful is this desert?" Siloh wondered, "Before I went out, I felt that this place was full of dead silence. Now that I've seen Zaun and Bilgewater, I feel even more so. ”
He looked up and looked around in both directions.
He was born decades ago on the ground beneath his feet, but he longed for the outside world.
In his eyes, although this piece of yellow sand has buried countless treasures, it has a feeling that it has died.
The living are not supposed to belong here.
"You don't understand!"
Karen shook her head wistfully, looking into the distance like a sapphire with her eyes.
He was born here, grew up here, and loved this place even more.
Even though he had seen a more magnificent world with Sivir, he still felt that his roots were still in Shurima.
When he came back this time, he felt the scorching heat of the sun shining on his skin and the hot wind blowing in his face, which made him feel extremely kind.
"Hey, hey!"
Silo pounded Karen, who had a deep face, and his face was full of unhappiness:
"The boss said I don't understand, forget it, I don't understand what you kid says. We've eaten more salt than you've ever eaten. ”
When Karen heard this, she turned her head and teased with a strange expression: "Brother Xiluo, you have to eat a large piece of salt at every meal. You've eaten more salt in a month than I've ever eaten. ”
", is that what I mean?"
Xiluo was anxious, and his face was full of resentment:
"This is a proverb from Bilgewater, what is the proverb understood? The people there are by the sea, and they eat more salt than I do. ”
"Brother Silo, this sentence was taught to us by Deputy Head Lucian last time." Karen stifled a smile.
"You're a bastard, you're there to see me laughing, aren't you?"
Silo pounced directly, and his fists and feet began to beckon, and Karen did not back down, and threw punches to block the counterattack.
For a while, the two of them had a mess at the head of the multi-man giant beast.
Inside the tent on the back of the beast, Sivir heard the commotion outside, but just glanced at it and withdrew his gaze.
Where there is Silo, it's not something to pay attention to when it's noisy.
"Miss Quekao, did you mean what you just said?"
She turned her head and stared at Cassiopeia, who was smiling with a solemn look.
Cassiopeia spread his hands, and said with indifference on his face:
"That's what I've heard, and I'm not very sure about the specifics. But if it's true, you and I will be very dangerous this trip. ”
Hearing the other party's meaningful words, Xavier snorted coldly and said:
"Even if what you said is true, and what I am escorting is an important item for the revival of the Shurima Empire, then this mission may not necessarily be dangerous. If it's really that important, I'm afraid it won't be my turn to escort. ”
Just now, after another mutual temptation, and as if to show sincerity, Cassiopeia told her about the items she was escorting.
The black, rune-covered box most likely contained an item related to the Shurima Empire, which had perished thousands of years ago.
Even, that item is related to the return of the Shurima Empire.
"It's because of your escort that you can get to your destination without being noticed, isn't it?" Cassiopeia had a calm look on his face, "The empire also has many enemies, in order not to attract the attention of those enemies, this is enough to hide people's eyes." ”
Sivir frowned, she didn't know much about the upper echelons of the empire, but if this thing really had something to do with the Shurima Empire, she had a guess.
Although she usually doesn't care about the improvement of her strength, every time she completes a task, the Book of Ascension will give her a good amount of strength.
And the root of those rewards all mentions some very key words...
Blood!
Descendants of the blood of Sertaka!
Living in the land of Shurima, who doesn't know the name of Setaka.
The legendary first ascension god, the founding martial queen who once established the Shurima Empire.
As a descendant of the other party, it's hard not to make Sivir think too much.
"Miss Quekao, have you ever heard the name Aatrox?"
Sivir raised his head and carefully observed the bright eyes of the other man, not missing the slightest detail.
She didn't know if what Cassiopeia said was true, but that didn't stop her from reciprocating the information and making a new temptation.
When she said the name, although it was fleeting, she caught a flash of surprise in Cassiopeia's eyes.
Just when she thought that the other party would get through the trick, she didn't think that Cassiopeia had a trace of surprise on her face, as if she completely trusted her, Cassiopeia blurted out:
"Where did you learn about this name? Although Aatrox is the only figure of Empress Setaka, for some historical reasons, his deeds should have long been lost in Shurima. ”
As he spoke, Cassiopeia still had a hint of respect on his face:
"It is said that he was an invincible Ascension God in the Shurima Empire, and even in the Ascension War of the fall of Empress Setaka, he also defeated the Void and survived. This information is hidden even in the Empire, and it took me a lot of effort to learn about it. (To be continued)
