Chapter 225 Makes me want to eat spicy rabbit head

Both Galen and Jarvan IV have seen that Tarik is different now.

Initially, stoning was not a punishment in Demacia.

The matter goes back to Yarna's time.

She was blessed by the moon and went to the top of the mountain above the cloud peak. Some Demacians did not hesitate to travel across mountains and rivers to another continent, trying to climb the mountain to pay homage to Yarna.

However, almost no one survives the climb to the summit.

When the only surviving Demacian returned, he declared that the climb was a test, and the consequences for failure would be severe.

For example, giving your life.

What will be gained by passing the test, no one knows, because no such person has appeared in history.

Since then, many warriors have gone to Targon and challenged this test.

However, more and more people left without returning, and later the "Stone Crown Punishment" was derived. Climbing Mount Targon gradually became a punishment for those who made major mistakes.

But in fact, most of the time, the punishment of stone crown means exile.

It means that once you leave Demacia, no one will care about your life or death.

Garen was familiar with Jarvan IV and Taric, knew his character, and knew he would not run away.

Now that he has returned from that mountain peak, he may have passed the test there.

Seeing that their former friends had now become strangers, Garen and Jarvan IV seemed a little silent on the way back.

The atmosphere is also a bit gloomy.

Lu Qi was still thinking about the problem of the Star Spirits.

If Taric were to intervene in the war between Demacia and Noxus, no matter which side he joined, it would mean that the balance of the battle would be completely tilted.

Even if he was determined to stop this struggle, he might be able to do it on his own.

This is the power of the Star Spirit, the kind of power that transcends mortals and is unparalleled.

Alas, this world is so dangerous.

Riding the horse bumpyly, Lu Qi couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Tariq's appearance was just a minor episode for everyone.

Compared to him, the enemies at the Gate of Sorrow are the focus of attention at the moment.

Over the next few days, the two sides engaged in a skirmish in the air.

Noxus sent a total of 120 Windwing Knights this time to prevent Demacia's Dragon Bird Knights from acting arbitrarily above their heads.

However, the appearance of these wind-winged knights did not make them happy for long.

On the Demacia side, Xisilia led the team, a total of forty dragon and bird knights, who always kept their original mission in mind.

Those who are only five steps away from the mountain will fly in a circle over the Gate of Sorrow.

The battle in the air begins.

Forty to one hundred and two, a full three times the difference, but under the heroic performance of the Dragon Bird Knight, it was almost invisible.

In fact, the Dragon Bird Knight, who became more and more courageous as he fought, had gained an advantage in the air and began to kill the Wind Wing Knights.

After all, the Windwing Knight itself was a replica of Noxus in order to imitate the Dragon Bird Knight of Demacia.

How could the counterfeit be the opponent of the genuine army?

Today, of the one hundred and twenty Wind Wing Knights, only thirty are left.

Gate of Sorrow.

Patria's office.

"Damn it!"

Patria slapped the table angrily and made a loud bang: "A bunch of trash, they didn't even capture a dragon bird knight!"

Opposite him was the adjutant who lowered his head and dared not speak.

Being exchanged for ninety by zero is a very shameful record for both Patria and the Wind Wing Knights.

After venting, Patria calmed down the anger in his heart, looked at the adjutant and ordered: "Write a letter to the Immortal Fortress and ask Lord Darkwill to send more support."

It's impossible not to ask for this support. If not, we will have to go back to the days of letting the enemy fly overhead.

Thinking of this, Patria added: "Hurry up!"

"Yes." The adjutant immediately responded after hearing this.

Patria watched him go away, and her eyes couldn't help but see the new letter sent from Hill City, and the anger that had just calmed down was ignited again.

That damn prince kept sending him a letter every day.

Even though he hadn't read it since the next day, he was already quite unhappy just by seeing the letter.

Hill City.

"It feels like I've been here for a long time this time."

Lux sat on the chair, dangling her two white feet in boredom. The gentle sunlight shone on her two jade feet, which reflected the light and looked crystal clear.

The weather is very good today, and the sun is much brighter than usual, so this girl is not willing to wear socks.

Recently, the Illuminator's affairs have become less and less, and Miss Crown Guard, who is becoming more and more leisurely, unconsciously feels a little homesick.

Kashina tilted her head and thought for a while: "It seems to be almost a month."

On the side, Lu Qi, who was carving a wooden block in his hand, heard this and remembered that today was already December 15th.

It will be almost a month.

The stalemate between Hill City and the Gate of Sorrow has been going on for half a month.

The two girls were idly watching Lu Qi's carvings at the moment, watching his beautiful hands carving skillfully without stopping for a moment.

After a while, the wooden block in Lu Qi's hand turned into a vivid rabbit puppet.

The two girls were already accustomed to his methods.

You can often see him carving something these days.

Lu Qi handed the rabbit he carved while passing time to Kashina beside him, then picked up another piece and continued to pass the time.

"so cute!"

Kashina took it with bright eyes and showed it to Lux: "Don't you think it's cute?"

"Yeah, so cute."

Lux nodded cooperatively, then sighed again, lying on the rocking chair and saying with weak eyes: "It makes me want to eat spicy rabbit heads."

Kashina: "."

She silently took the rabbit puppet back.

Lux turned around and tugged on Lu Qi's sleeve: "I want to eat pudding and candied haws."

Recently, Lu Qi doesn't even cook by himself, but eats with the army every day.

It made her mouth taste more and more tasteless.

She kind of missed the days when she couldn't finish all the desserts.

Lu Qi glanced at her: "How can I have that condition now? If I really want to eat when I can't eat anymore, just sleep for a while. I can dream about everything."

"Just sleep." Lux puffed up her cheeks, turned around, closed her eyes, and tried to enter a dream of a dessert buffet.

I don’t know if she entered her favorite dream state, but she fell asleep quite quickly.

After a while, even breathing came out.

At this moment, Catalina was sweeping the floor and couldn't help but look up at Lu Qi.

It was already December 15th, and there was only half a month left before the end of the month, but this guy didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and he didn't do anything during the period.

It's like I'm really here for vacation.

She hoped that it would continue like this. Anyway, by the end of the month, she would be free again.

But she was a little curious as to why Lu Qi dared to propose the bet with such confidence.

Now we only need to wait another fifteen days. According to the current trend of the stalemate between Hill City and the Gate of Sorrow, it may only take as long as possible.

The time came in the afternoon.

In the military camp.

Shyvana, who trained with the soldiers every day, ran on the playground, her purple-red skin exposed to the sun and soaked with sweat.

On the side, the soldiers who had accompanied her for several laps gradually fell behind one by one, walked to the center of the playground and sat down, watching her continue running.

"I didn't expect that I would lose in terms of physical strength."

"Hey, there's no shame in losing to Shyvana."

"I was punched away by her last time."

"Ha ha."

The soldiers talked and laughed, already treating Shyvana as one of their own.

After a few more laps, Vayne couldn't run anymore. She slowly walked aside and rested. While wiping the sweat from her forehead, she looked at Shyvana who was still running and had to give in.

She could sense that there was an unusual aura in Shyvana's body.

That smell was extremely familiar to her.

If it were her before, I'm afraid she wouldn't have accepted Sivana easily.

But now, she no longer determines whether things are good or bad based on the first glance.

After spending so many days together, she also saw that Shyvana was indeed a person worth getting along with.

At first, she was dissatisfied with her extraordinary physical strength.

But after getting along for a long time, Vayne knew that Shyvana was worthy of such a big appetite.

She truly transformed what she ate into useful strength.

Not like some little golden retriever.

At this time, Shyvana ran a few more laps, stopped not far from Vayne, and walked towards her, her expression as refreshing as running laps on a cold day: "The weather today is really not bad."

"Yes." Vayne nodded with a smile and handed over another bottle of clean water: "Let's discuss each other later."

"OK."

Shyvana took the kettle and did not refuse the invitation to discuss.

Unplugging the stopper of the kettle, Shyvana raised her hand and raised her head, letting the clear water flow out, poured it into her mouth, and drank it generously.

"Plop!"

Suddenly, her heart beat violently, and a strong omen suddenly emerged, causing her whole body to tremble uncontrollably. Her heart felt as if a hole had been dug out, and she was so scared that there were bursts of noise in her ears. Buzz.

The kettle in his hand fell to the ground, spilling water all over the floor.

Seeing Shyvana's slightly painful expression, Vayne asked with concern: "What's wrong?"

After taking a deep breath, Shyvana raised her head and forced a smile: "It's okay, the upcoming sparring session may be cancelled."

After saying that, she turned around and left quickly, as if she had something on her mind.

Vayne frowned and looked at her retreating back, a little puzzled. After thinking about it, she followed her.

Shyvana was worried all the way.

Her heart was beating fast, and the sound of "puff, plop, plop," was like a drum, making the blood and magic power in her body agitate.

These signs reminded Shyvana all the time that she was coming.

This is the connection between her and her. When both parties appear at a certain distance, they can always feel the other's presence.

Soon, she found Lu Qi.

Lu Qi, who was carving something, looked up and saw Shyvana breathing slightly and walking in anxiously. He couldn't help but ask: "What's going on?"

Shyvana stabilized her breathing, looked at Lu Qi and said, "Your Highness, can we talk alone."

Seeing her serious expression, Lu Qi did not refuse. He put down the things in his hands, stood up, and walked out with her.

The two came to a rooftop.

Lu Qi stopped and said, "Just here, what do you want to say?"

Shyvana looked at him and sighed: "I'm ready to leave."

Hearing this, Lu Qi was slightly startled, and his expression returned to normal: "Why?"

Shyvana replied: "Remember the personal issue I told His Highness at that time? Now I have to solve it."

Lu Qi thought for a moment and asked, "How are you doing here during this time?"

Faced with this problem, Shyvana didn't think too much: "I'm living a good life. I haven't spent such a peaceful time in a long time, and I've never known so many friends."

Lu Qi asked: "If that's the case, then why do you want to leave?"

"This is one of the reasons why I have to leave." Shyvana smiled bitterly.

Originally, she wanted to leave without saying goodbye.

But precisely because she had feelings for this place, she felt that if she really left without saying goodbye, it might make people sad.

It might also be the thing she regrets the most.

She didn't know if she would have a chance to come back after leaving this time.

She likes Demacia and this cheerful country. This half month has been the most peaceful and peaceful time in her life.

She has made many friends here, and it can be seen that they all sincerely accept her.

But because of this, she didn't want her private affairs to involve these people.

Lu Qi wanted to get to the bottom of it: "What are the other reasons?"

It was very offensive to ask about other people's personal affairs, but Shyvana didn't think so. She paused, as if she didn't know where to start.

After looking at Lu Qi, she asked: "Your Highness should have noticed it already, right?"

Lu Qi asked: "Which one are you referring to?"

Shyvana did not answer, but raised her head, and with a "bang" sound, a flame suddenly burned on it.

"I have had this ability since I was born. Also, there is a reason why my skin color is different from ordinary people."

Looking beyond the rooftop to the streets in the distance, Sivana said slowly: "Because, my mother is a giant dragon."

Hearing this, Lu Qi continued to listen to Shyvana's story without any surprise.

"My father said that he stole me away from my mother. He felt guilty, so he did not hide from me that my mother was a dragon. Not long after he brought me back, I broke When it comes out of its shell, it doesn’t look like a dragon, but like a human being.”

"But I still possess some of the dragon's abilities. Because of this troublesome ability, my father and I cannot live among the residents and have been living without a fixed residence."

Shyvana put out the fire in her hand, and there was a touch of sadness in her eyes as she spoke: "Originally, I thought that days like this would continue. Until two months ago, my mother came after me."

"I watched helplessly as my father, who was looking for food, was swallowed up by the fire she breathed out. She wanted to kill me, I could clearly feel it. She didn't find me at the first time. If I wanted to live, I could only kill my father. Buried, all the way to the west, during this period, I can feel that she has been chasing me, in order not to be discovered by her, I have been hiding my aura."

"His Highness also knows what happened next."

Speaking of this, Sivana paused and smiled helplessly: "She is indeed my mother, because no matter where I go, I can always feel the connection with her. Now, she is about to discover me."

Dragon, a legendary creature in Runeterra.

A kind of monster that stands at the top of the food chain in Runeterra. There are countless legends about it.

Human beings take pride in defeating it, but they often become its prey.

Any human who defeats it will be called a hero, and the story of dragon slaying will be passed down for a long time.

Nowadays, although few people can see a living dragon in Runeterra.

But absolutely no one dares to underestimate it because of its outdatedness.

No matter where he goes, the word "dragon" will always have a full deterrent effect.

Shyvana's mother is a dragon.

Lu Qi naturally knew this. After listening, he said: "So, you are going to leave and continue to escape?"

Shyvana nodded: "I think it can only be like this. If she chases here, it will definitely affect other people."

She didn't want to see something like this happen, and she didn't want to harm the group of people who accepted her because of herself.

Lu Qi asked: "What if you are caught up by her?"

Shyvana was silent.

If you are caught up, you can only fight.

Fighting an adult dragon, it seems that the outcome can be predicted.

But, this is her fate after all, and she will have to face it one day.

"Why don't you ask us for help? Even if you leave now, do you only talk to this guy?"

At this time, a voice came from behind.

Vayne walked over with a cold expression on her face.

"That's right, we are friends after all."

Behind her, Lux and others who had been eavesdropping for a long time nodded and followed.

"You guys." Shyvana looked at them and was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting to be heard by them all.

All the girls have learned the Divine Hiding Technique from Lu Qi. Although the level is not as high as his, they can still conceal their aura.

If she wanted to eavesdrop, she would naturally not notice it.

After listening to it at this time, I didn't expect that Shyvana would have such an experience.

Kashina stepped forward, took her hand, and looked at her seriously: "Why didn't you tell us earlier when something like this happened to you?"

Shyvana opened her mouth and sighed, "After all, it's a giant dragon."

Even if I say it, what's the use?

The dragon is so powerful, far stronger than humans, I don’t know how much stronger.

From the beginning to the end, she never wanted to implicate other people because of her own affairs.

She didn't want to lose these new friends she had made because of this.

"Shvana." Lu Qi suddenly asked: "Do you consider us friends?"

Sivana paused after hearing this, and then immediately replied: "Of course, I am very grateful to you for accepting me, and I treat you as a friend and partner from the bottom of my heart."

Lucci then looked at Shyvana, smiled and said: "Since you regard us as friends, you should know that we will not give up our partners because of this kind of thing. You can always choose, trust us. Bear this kind of thing alone Things are so lonely and lonely, why not let us help you share some of the pressure."

Shyvana couldn't help but froze when she heard this. She looked around. Everyone's expressions were firm and there was no trace of fear.

Suddenly, she felt a little guilty in her heart.

Is the reason why she didn't dare to tell this matter because she was afraid of losing these friends, afraid that they would avoid her after hearing about the dragon?

She once had a friendship, and when she was a child, she and her father found a place to live in the wild, and she went to play in nearby villages.

I quickly made a few friends and played happily together every day.

They went to a nearby forest together, but during an attack, she transformed into another form and killed the beast that attacked them.

But those friends had frightened expressions on their faces and ignored her explanation. They went back and told the adults about the incident.

Because of this, she and her father were driven out of the village, and those friends never paid attention to her again.

To this day, she still hasn't forgotten it.

She doesn't blame those friends, but looking back, she still feels sad.

Is this time the same as that time?

Looking at the people around her and those clear eyes, Sivana lowered her head.

They have accepted themselves.

But it seems that I have never really integrated into them.

"In short, there is no need to keep things in your heart, speak out."

Looking at Shyvana who was still struggling, Lu Qi thought for a while and suggested: "Call my eldest brother and the others here first. After all, I am not the one in charge here. If he doesn't allow you to stay here, then how about you leave?"

Shyvana thought of Jarvan IV, hesitated, and nodded.

quickly.

Jarvan IV, Galen, Lev, and some people who were familiar with Shyvana were all called over.

Everyone sat down, surprised to learn that Shyvana was leaving.

Then, he listened quietly to her telling the whole story.

"That's just the way it is."

After Shyvana finished speaking, she looked at the people opposite.

"boom!"

After listening in silence, Jarvan IV suddenly slammed the table hard and stood up with an indignant look on his face: "Is there such a thing? How can a mother have any reason to pursue and kill her daughter? Don't worry, since this matter is entrusted to you Give it to us and we will definitely help you solve it!”

He has an overwhelming sense of justice.

He has always had a good impression of Shyvana, not only because of her strength, but also because of her good personality.

For half a month, Shyvana took the initiative to join the army and fought alongside the soldiers, dealing with countless Noxian soldiers.

Jarvan IV was sincerely happy for her to join Demacia.

Now that she was encountering difficulties, he naturally couldn't just sit idly by and ignore her!

Shyvana was confused when she heard this: "I didn't entrust this matter to you."

"Stop talking!" Jarvan IV looked at her seriously: "We already know the matter. Isn't it just a giant dragon? If it dares to come, we will kill it!"

The momentum of these words is very heroic.

Although I have only seen what the dragon looks like in stories and pictures.

But Jarvan IV was not deterred at all.

Lu Qi took a sip of tea and said, "How about asking other people?"

Jarvan IV glanced at him, nodded, and looked at the people around him: "What are your opinions?"

"Your opinion is my opinion."

After Galen finished speaking, he remained silent. Naturally, he would not be afraid of a giant dragon.

"That's nothing to think about, just do it!"

"I haven't seen a dragon yet!"

"Fighting a dragon for the first time ever!"

"expect!"

The other people were also unafraid and did not consider Shyvana's opinion at all. They had already begun to think about slaying the dragon.

Even a little excited, about to see the legendary dragon.

"You are one of us now, so naturally we will not watch our companions die."

At this time, Jarvan IV looked at Shyvana with a smile on his face: "If you still have questions, try asking more people."

Before Shyvana could refuse, she was taken to the military camp by everyone.

Gathering the soldiers together, Jarvan IV skipped some steps and simply explained the whole story.

"Next, what I want to say is about Shyvana."

Shyvana is well-known in the military because of her outstanding strength and easy-going personality.

So, after hearing her name, all eyes were focused on her.

"Shyvana is being hunted by her mother, and her mother happens to be a dragon, a real dragon!"

Jarvan IV stood on the stage and said loudly: "This is what happened. This is not a problem that she can solve alone. Now our new compatriots, our companions fighting side by side on the same line, are in danger. .Can we just sit back and ignore it?”

"cannot!"

After the words fell, the audience didn't even pause, and soon there was a deafening response.

Almost no soldier hesitated and directly raised the weapon in his hand with incomparable determination.

Shyvana looked at the audience, her heart pounding, and a feeling she had never experienced before gradually filled her heart.

Her eyes felt hot, as if tears were about to fall in the next second.

"As long as we unite and work together, that dragon will never be our opponent."

Jarvan IV looked at the audience and continued to speak loudly: "Facing the dragon, everyone will have a sense of awe. I will not underestimate anyone just because he chooses to avoid the battle. If you are not willing to join this battle, you can let it go. hand."

He glanced at the audience seriously.

No one put down their hands.

No one wavered.

"See now? No one will stay away from you because of your troubles. When trouble comes, we will face it with you."

Jarvan IV turned around and looked at Shyvana. Behind him, there seemed to be a firm and warm shield: "Why don't you try to trust us."

Lu Qi asked: "Now, do you still want to leave alone? If you insist on leaving, we will not stop you again."

Shyvana wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and bowed seriously to the audience: "No matter what happens next, I will fight side by side with everyone!"

She will no longer have the childish thoughts she had before.

Otherwise, I'm sorry for these people who firmly believe in her.

For the first time, Shyvana felt what "home" was.

It turned out that she had been traveling around for so many years just to get to this home.

Catalina looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't help but feel a little lost.

As far as she knew, Demacia was indeed such a country.

United, they are like an inseparable whole, maintaining high-profile coordination.

It is precisely because of this that this country has become an enemy that Noxus can never underestimate.

"Fight for those who cannot fight!"

"Fight for Demacia!"

"Fight for the weak!"

These declarations sounded ridiculous to her, but in this country, they were things that many people spent their entire lives doing and executing.

It is precisely because of their terrifying willpower that they have been able to stand firm on this continent for almost a thousand years.

She also yells, "For Noxus!".

But, it is more for myself, for the continuous improvement of status, for more rights, and for more money.

Kings brought you to your knees by hereditary authority and false reputation, Noxus brought you to your feet.

However, the Noxians shouted hypocritical slogans and did anything for the so-called "stand up".

Infighting among warlords and families, intrigues, confrontations of human nature, and encroachment of interests

As long as they can get more money and more rights, they can sell anything, even morality.

But look carefully, how many people are standing in this huge Noxus?

How many people want to stand up, but have their legs broken by those who have already stood up?

Countless people died in the process of standing up.

The bones can almost form countless mountains.

From this point of view, these Demacians are actually more like standing.

Because they have always had goals to pursue, lofty ideals, people to protect, and reasons to fight for.

Looking at the scene in front of me.

Katarina couldn't help but wonder if the same situation happened in Noxus.

Would they choose to fight a more powerful creature for the sake of a compatriot?

Won't.

She already had the answer in her heart.

Some people may even laugh at you. Isn’t that what fools do if they risk their lives for others?

Now, there is such a group of fools in front of Catalina.

There's still two thousand four thousand left. If I don't get paid, I won't be able to keep up with perfect attendance. I'll make up for it tomorrow.
