Chapter536 Ashes Have Hearts

"Boss, a glass of sweet ale."

"Look at you as a foreigner, add ten copper coins and give you a cup, do you want to come?"

"Thanks, but I'm afraid I won't be able to drink a second one."

Rejecting the tavernkeeper's kindness, Milton took his glass and drank it down, and after putting it down, Milton glanced at the other companions lurking in the tavern and walked out of the tavern first.

A man in a large black felt hat cloak had just disappeared into the crowd, and the corners of Milton's mouth curled slightly.

The incompetent Shurima defenders did not play any role in this incident, and under the orders of Lyist, it was an established fact that the Emerald Leader controlled Wazuan, so there was no need to care about the opinions of the Shurima defenders, and the victim Noxian maritime merchants were the best excuse for the Emerald Leader to intervene.

For Milton, how to capture the mysterious fire mage is the top priority at the moment, confirm the address of the fire mage, mobilize the manpower of Black Lightning and Night Blade to set up the killing, he will not give the fire mage any chance to escape and resist in the operation, he knows that he can only satisfy the uncrowned king of the Emerald Collar if he does things clean and beautiful.

Now that he's done the first step, Black Lightning's Memi is clearly more experienced than him when it comes to how to capture mages.

"He'll be back, Master Memi, and put the 'stuff' here."

Nodding, Mage Memi, who didn't speak, turned to leave.

At this moment, Keegan Nuohe didn't know that in silence, a large net had been enveloped towards himself who had just arrived in Wazuan, and the big net did not know that the little finch he had captured was a bloodthirsty vulture.

……

In the inn, Lyster once again dripped blood on the rune crystal disk, and the glowing rune crystal disk projected a magic light curtain, and a flickering point of light was moving around in the light curtain, but the light curtain did not last for three seconds, and the flickering point of light disappeared completely, and then the rune crystal disk also dimmed.

When Lyist was on Fogtail Island, he also used the rune crystal disk to determine the direction, but he never imagined that the reliable rune crystal disk would have such a strange situation.

"Coming to Hit, what does the flash of light represent?"

With a curious look on her face, she leaned over to look at the dark rune crystal disk, until Lyster dripped blood on the crystal disk again, causing the light to appear and start scurrying.

Regarding the anomaly of the rune crystal disk, the stern-faced Lyster no longer dripped blood on the crystal disk, and since it had been determined that it was nearby, there was no need for him to use the rune crystal disk for invalid positioning.

"Maybe it means that the holder of the rune fragment is moving, or maybe another rune fragment has actively cut off the connection, I don't know what is going on now, but at least one thing is certain, Wazunan has a rune fragment, and the location of this fragment is not far from us.

There is a small chance that the rune crystal disk will break, this thing itself has the effect of amplifying the breath of rune fragments, and now the question is how to find the world runes that have been sent to the door. ”

Taking his eyes off the rune crystal disk, he suddenly remembered the fire elemental mage that Milton and the others were tracking, Xia lazily stretched his waist and said casually.

"Come to Hit, did you say that the person who controlled the rune fragments was the fire mage who burned the cargo ship? During this time, Vazuan only had fire mages of unknown origin, which is strange, right? ”

After hearing Xia's words, Lyster's face changed, if this was the case, Milton and the others would definitely not be the opponents of the fire elemental mage, and he who controlled the world runes knew very well how terrifying the power of runes was.

After reorganizing his thoughts, he thought of a certain heroic character who controlled the runes, and Lyster, who had a bad premonition in his heart, said in a deep voice.

"It's unlikely, but ...... It's not out of the question, Xia, Milton's actions need to slow down a bit, if the fire mage is really a rune holder, then Mage Memi and Black Lightning will definitely not be the opponent of the fire elemental mage......"

Before he could finish speaking, there was a knock on the door behind him.

"Dong Dong Dong ~ Dong Dong Dong ~"

Obviously, it was just a very gentle knock on the door, but Lyster heard a certain stubborn meaning, as if he would keep knocking if he didn't open the door, just listening to the sound made Lyster feel what it meant to be aggressive.

Standing up silently, Lyist took off the god-killing blade placed in the cabinet, and after gesturing to Xia, who was holding the rune crystal disk, Lyst pulled open the deadbolt and looked at it coldly.

A stranger covered in a black hooded cloak was holding up his crimson-skinned right hand to knock on the door, and when the door opened, the owner of the cloak raised his head, revealing a braised egg head covered with flaming red stripes, looking a little frightened.

This momentary impression reminded Lyster of the purple sweet potato Jingruiz, whether it was the taste of clothing or the appearance of being eroded by the power of runes, the guy in front of him was very similar to the purple braised egg head.

But no matter how much the man in front of him is, it will not be Purple Sweet Potato Essence Ruiz, because Ruiz will never show a cruel side, and there is no arrogance against others in his eyes, peace and humility are Ruiz's nature, not the madness born after full of pain.

The red boiled eggs in front of me are almost engraved on the door of the brain, the only difference is that the head of the boiled egg in front of me has not yet turned into a burning ghost knight.

"Should I call you Keegan Novo, or should I call you Brand, the vengeful Flame Soul?"

"I didn't tell anyone my real name...... How do you know? ”

Keegan Noho, or Brand, who had been combined with the runes in the flames and completely reborn under the transformation of the runes, paused his spell casting, he had never seen the man in front of him, and the man who also controlled the runes seemed to know him well.

This accident made him temporarily suppress his murderous intentions, and he decided to let the man in front of him take a few more breaths to satisfy his curiosity.

"I know a lot of things, for example, you burned the cargo ship of Noxus, and for example, you and your teacher Ruiz turned against each other because of runes, and in order to gain the power of runes, you did not hesitate to kill your savior and mentor with your own hands......

I have to say, if you really succeed, it will be a relief for Ruiz, did he tell you that his teacher, Mage Tyrus, was killed by him because of rune problems? You're in the same vein. ”

Taking a half step back, Brand looked back at the stern-faced Lyster, a little more vigilant.

"Who the hell are you? Why, will you know about me? ”

Slowly drawing out the God-Killing Blade, Lyist sighed.

"Since you can find this place, you must also know that some things are destined to be unavoidable, to be honest, I like you a lot, if you don't always throw flames and ricochets into the pile, sometimes it hurts."

With a sneer, knowing that he was afraid that he might run into a strong enemy, Brand's black robe burned out in an instant, and the whole person turned into a burning ghast, and his voice also turned into a demon.

That's all he's made of.

"You don't really think you can beat me, do you?"

In response to Brand was the blade of the Godkiller Blade, and with a flick of his right hand, Brand whipped a flaming whip towards the Godkiller Blade.

"Boom!

! ”

It was like detonating a thermobaric bomb in the secret room, and the entire hotel was instantly reduced to a sea of fire, and the flames engulfed everything.

Hundreds of people were buried in the overbearing flames, and in a scream, only a large silver dragon smashed through the roof of the burning hotel, and the dragon rushed into the sky, it was none other than Xia, who was responsible for protecting the rune crystal disk.

This once-in-a-century scene stunned the nearby residents and travelers, and the burning inn can be attributed to the destruction of the mage, but the question is, how did a dragon with a wingspan of more than ten meters shrink into the inn? Bone shrinking?

The streets of Wazuan were in chaos in an instant, with people trying to extinguish the fire with wooden buckets, people shouting and moving shop property that had not yet been ignited, and others crying, as if there were relatives still in the inn who had not yet come out, everyone was doing their own thing, busy like ants, but it did not work in the slightest.

Farther away, Milton and Memmy, who were preparing to ambush Brand in the tavern where Brand lived, turned pale and rushed frantically with the Black Lightning Mage troops.

In the inn engulfed by the flames, his whole body was completely scorched, his eyes were familiar, and the carbonized skin of Lyster resisted the smell of crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and forcibly pulled out the god-killing blade from Brand's chest, and the burning Brand fell to the ground, the flames on his body gradually dimmed like a dying life, and Brand's eyes were full of unwillingness and doubt.

The enemy in front of him has obviously turned into a carbon stick, but he can still act as if nothing happened, and there is no pain on his face that is unrecognizable.

Obviously, it was very painful to be burned by the flames, why did he act so calm......

"Why...... You're not afraid of my flames? Why...... Can you break my magic? Why...... Why ......"

Staggered and slumped on the ground, Lyist's right hand, which had been completely carbonized, could no longer support the weight of the God-Killing Blade, and could only passively throw away Aatrox, who was laughing at him, and he flicked the carbon block on his left arm twice, and the carbon block was stuck to a piece of meat that was already nine cooked meat, and he couldn't smell anything compared to just now.

Casually threw his cooked meat on the ground, and it was no different from a carbon skeleton Lyster opened his mouth only to find that he had no mouth, and no sound came out of his throat and chest cavity that were completely carbonized, and the whole world became an eternal darkness, and the strange thing was that he could still hear Brand's voice when he lost his five senses, and he wondered if it was because the rune fragments in Brand's body had some connection with the rune fragments in his body.

On the other side, Bland, who saw that Stert had turned into a wasted person, smiled with difficulty as he saw the tragic situation of Lyster, he knew that although the man in front of him was a victor, he was not without suffering, which made his heart feel a lot better, which at least showed that his efforts were not in vain.

Without the blessing of the power of runes, the surging flames in the air began to shrink, only the inn was still burning violently, and the flames that were enough to melt the molten iron could not fill the carbonized Ryst and flame resistance at this moment, how about Brand, who would not be damaged by ignition at all, the two of them sat and lay down like this, waiting for time to pass.

The sound of burning flames around him reminded Brand of the night he returned to the village, the night Keegan Nohe died and Brand came back to life.

Immediately afterward, Brand thought of his teacher, the wandering mage named 'Ruiz', who always carried a huge magic scroll on his back, and was also a teacher and friend.

Brand closed his eyes and lay quietly on the ground.

"My teacher Ryze, he thought it was the world runes that changed my mind and made me become a greedy and unscrupulous brand, but in fact it is not, since my mother Regina left this world, the guard of the cold corpse of Kinenohe has already died, Brand was just inspired by the world runes from the body, he has always existed in the world, the person that the teacher Ryze saved in the cave was not Genenohe, it was Brand.

Brand is not the Kidano who has gone bad, but Kidano is the Brand who has no power to become bad.

My mother, Rejana, is a healer, and was caught by a robber during a trip to collect medicine, and after some humiliation, my mother returned to the village with scars.

The humiliated mother could not be ruthless to erase an innocent life, in a curse and abuse, damn me came to this damn world, my birth brought deeper pain to my mother Rejana, if my death can make my mother's situation a little better, I would rather die a hundred times, a thousand times, but alas...... It's useless at all.

I am the son of a robber, a bastard and a bastard of the village of Riggen, a bastard destined to become another robber.

I hadn't seen my father since I was a kid, all I knew was that he was a bastard in the mouths of the rest of the village of Riggen, a damn bastard, a bastard who insulted and defiled his mother,

Because my robber father and mother are secretly scolded by others as frivolous and lowly bitch, even if the bitch in their mouth is to heal their disease and go up the mountain to collect medicine, they are attacked by robbers, they can't see anything, they can't see their mother's pay, they can't see their mother's pain, they can only see a good woman willingly give birth to a robber mongrel, but they don't know that the woman who has suffered humiliation has long wanted to kill herself in the world......"

Feeling the rapidly passing life force in his body, Brand's heart felt a little more peaceful, and he wiped the corners of his eyes, only to find that his cheeks had already turned into scars from the flames.

When there are too many tears, they become dry scars.

"My mother chose to live in humiliation because of me, and as a doctor, she couldn't accept that she couldn't save herself, and she couldn't see her child lose her only relative.

In order to establish myself in the village of Riggen, my mother took me to the most remote part of the village.

For more than ten years, my mother has helped hundreds of people for free, helped hundreds of people to help collect medicine, and treated each other with good words, and when she turned around, she cursed and scolded her mother as a slut animal, and after my mother died, those bastards whose wounds had healed did not come to see my mother, and everyone treated me and my family as plague gods.

For seven days, I guarded my mother's corpse and held my mother's cold right hand for seven days, just to see if people in this world still have a conscience.

Even in the cold Freljord, the mother's body has begun to decompose, no one came, for seven days, there was no one, even the snow of Freljord's hundred years, there was no chilling thing that the herd of animals did, from that time on, Keegan Noho died, and only Bland, who longed for revenge and became a robber, was alive, and Brand knew that only people like their fathers could make animals understand what it meant to respect others.

On the eighth day, I buried my mother's body, on the ninth day, I set a fire at night and blocked the gates of every house with a pyre, I held the firewood knife, I carried the wounds, and killed every guy who wanted to escape, they begged for mercy, they cried, they regretted it, but, whatever they did, it didn't make any sense, I just wanted to watch them die, because I was the son of a robber, and I was also a robber,

It was the happiest day of Keegan Noh's life, as his enemies were reduced to ashes in their coffins.

The village of Riggen was burned down and everyone died, and even without the power of runes, Keegan Novo could do what Brand could do. ”

To Brand's surprise, the enemy, who had lost his five senses and turned into a carbon stick like a blind man, stretched out his right hand with difficulty and touched the floor, moving forward inch by inch, and finally stopped at his right hand and held it gently.

As if he was being held by a piece of cold charcoal, Brand opened his eyes wide, trying to break free with the rest of his strength, but found that he couldn't break free from this charred hand that would shed flesh and blood at any time with all his strength, and closed his eyes again, Brand chose to let it go.

The last wisp of rune power was about to leave the necrotic body, Brand found that his eyes were a little foggy, he heard the ethereal call of the wolf howl and the sheep spirit, he knew that his own death had come, perhaps he had been looking forward to this moment for a long time.

"In this world, apart from my mother, the only person I'm sorry for is Mr. Ruiz, if you can hear it, stranger, please help me say to Mr. Ruize, I'm sorry......"

The sound that went straight to the depths of his soul stopped abruptly, and the sense of blockage in his hand disappeared, and Lyster touched a piece of ash in a dark world, and after a long time of hard groping, Lyster touched a stubborn hard stone from the ashes.

The man gently grasped Keegan Noho, or rather the only thing Brand had left, somewhat sadly.

[I'll bring my words, Brand, I hope you can rest in another world]
