Chapter 278 Someone on my road was not made by a clay figure!

Chapter 278 Someone on my road was not made by a clay figure!

A strong and high-pitched voice came from the smoke and resounded throughout the audience.

The pair of stone wings flapped, and a strong wind suddenly blew up. The smoke suddenly dispersed, revealing a majestic giant statue. He stood there like a mountain, with his head held high. Wearing a golden crown on his head and a pair of golden wings on his back, his whole body is white with some traces of time.

And the face of the giant statue now showed a humanized smiling expression.

At this moment, everyone was stunned. They raised their heads and looked up at the giant statue, feeling a deep shock from the bottom of their hearts.

Almost everyone knows that this is the giant statue outside the city. !

"Gario!"

Lux shouted happily: "You are really here!"

"Of course, little man with the golden head!" Galio laughed heartily, his laughter full of power, and then said: "I said, as long as you need me, I will be here for you."

At this time, the people at the scene also came to their senses, but there was still an unbelievable look in their eyes.

"Gario is alive."

Jarvan IV rubbed his eyes, deeply suspecting that what he was seeing was an illusion.

But no, both the cracks on the ground and the giant statue standing not far away told him that this was the truth.

The ancient giant statue outside the city has come to life!

survived?

Is it possible that he was not dead all along?

This huge sculpture has a long history and is considered a symbol of war by the military.

When the soldiers went out to fight, the Colossi would join them in battle.

The colossus carved from the Forbidden Stone has a constitution that absorbs magic, so it can protect soldiers from the Archmage's attacks.

He even woke up a few times when he absorbed enough magic.

However, this is what the legend says. For a period of time, the giant statue stayed at the intersection of the Battle Monument Road outside the royal capital for people to pay their respects.

As time goes by, perhaps only children believe that this colossus is alive.

However, a scene so divorced from reality happened before their eyes, and people realized that the legend turned out to be true!

Such a scene even Jiawen III and Xin Zhao were shocked.

In the royal library, there are indeed records about the colossus outside the city.

It was the most successful masterpiece of Master Durang, who was famous back then, and he even came back alive to help out.

However, even the royal family had long lost the way to awaken this colossus, and by his generation, it had become a legend.

"Lacus, did you do this?"

Galen looked at Lux, his tone a little unsure: "You and Galio"

Because just now people did see that she seemed to want to try something, and it was seen that she and Colossus still knew each other.

"Yes, I did it!"

Lux raised her head proudly at this moment, her little face was full of pride, and she grinned happily: "We are old friends."

"Yes, old friend."

Before anyone else could say anything, Galio was the first to acknowledge her words and showed a very doting expression.

This suddenly shocked the people present.

You know, in the eyes of Demacians, Galio is a spiritual sustenance, a symbol of the kingdom, a great being that everyone respects like a great hero.

Why does Lux have such a good relationship with Galio?

Lu Qi knew it, but he had forgotten about it just now.

Now that I saw Galio appear, I felt that this wave was stable.

Apart from anything else, in terms of combat power, Galio is still far superior.

At this time, Galio was in an unusually excited state. He looked around the audience: "Mage, I saw a lot of mages. You asked me to come, do you want me to help you eliminate them?"

As soon as the words fell, the hearts of all the mages present could not help but jump, and they took a step back in shock and fear.

There is no doubt that Galio could kill one with one slap if he wanted to.

If this giant was alive, their rebellion would have been a joke from the beginning.

"No, it's not." Lux denied quickly, pointing to the soles of Galio's feet: "I called you here because I want you to help us deal with this."

"Under my feet?" Galio looked down and felt a very powerful magical aura from below.

So he moved his feet, and where the cracks spread out in the middle of the pit, Eldred was lying there unconsciously. The wings behind his back seemed to be broken. He looked very embarrassed as a whole, and the magic power in his body was gone. It fluctuated steadily, and the whole person was dying.

People didn't expect that after enduring such a heavy blow from Galio just now, Eldred could still be alive, which was surprising enough.

That earthquake blow just now, I'm afraid anyone else would have been crushed into minced flesh, right?

"Well I feel a familiar force."

Galio looked him over, touched his chin with a thoughtful expression, and after a while he said casually: "Forget it, I can't remember."

Then, he knelt down, stretched out his big hand, picked up Eldred like a chicken, and looked at him curiously.

As his body swayed, Eldred regained some consciousness, but it was still extremely blurry. He felt as if all the bones in his body were broken, there was severe pain, and the two forces in his body were also being lost.

Through a crack in his eyes that he strained to open, he saw the colossus looking at him.

Colossus

Even he didn't expect that the Colossus outside the city would come to life.

He did learn from secrets that the Colossus might be alive, but the Colossus had not been moved for at least two to three hundred years.

No one knows how to wake him up.

Even he believed that this secret was false.

Turns out, it's true.

At this moment, his whole life suddenly flashed through Eldred's mind like pages of a book turning quickly.

He was born into a family of demon seekers, and he showed great talent since he was a child. He received targeted education and everyone in the family was waiting for him to succeed the next demon seeker.

Since he was a child, he has been instilled in him the idea of ​​hating and being hostile to mages.

This hatred reached its climax when his father died in an operation to capture the mage.

He naturally inherited his father's position and became a demon hunter at the age of fourteen.

Because of his good talent and the education he received from a demon searcher since he was a child, he quickly rose to prominence after becoming a demon searcher.

When he was seventeen years old, he became the captain of a team of demon hunters.

At the age of twenty, he was promoted to captain and in charge of three squads.

At the age of twenty-three, he was promoted to branch leader and had more than a hundred subordinates under his command.

It can be said that he is young and promising and has a promising future.

This completely bound his life to the Demon Searcher.

However, after becoming the branch leader, Eldred did not live a life of being respected wherever he went.

People hate mages, but they also hate magic seekers.

In other words, demon seekers are not welcome among the people.

Demon seekers are crows, synonymous with the god of plague, and are the objects to be avoided.

The looks people gave him were of fear, horror, and timidity, never respect.

In order to change this situation, Eldred worked harder to capture the mage and worked hard to become stronger. He wanted the magic seeker to become someone respected by everyone.

But it is very difficult. The prejudice in people's hearts is like a big mountain. No matter how hard you try, you can't move it.

And his road to promotion also encountered obstacles.

Until he was thirty years old, he was still a sub-regiment leader, and his former subordinates came to the same position as him, and some were even above him.

More and more difficulties in life are facing us.

Eldred was also confused and confused until he was thirty-two years old when he was enlightened.

He began not to care about his achievements or his position, and concentrated on capturing the mages, working hard and doing the dirty work that other regiments were unwilling to take on.

At the same time, he is also secretly accumulating strength.

He began to set aside part of his time to study the captured mages—in fact, this was indeed effective.

But he was not impatient.

He began to secretly cultivate trustworthy subordinates, one after another, and developed silently like this.

The life repeated day after day for eight years. During this period, he relied on his steady performance to advance to another level. At the age of forty, he finally got the opportunity.

The previous leader of the Demon Searchers died unexpectedly due to illness. With such an important position vacant, there was an urgent need for someone to fill it.

The deputy captain is the most suitable candidate, but Eldred is unwilling to give up this opportunity to others.

In eight years, more than half of the Demon Searchers in the Demon Searchers now belong to him, and as he takes out the results obtained from the mages, more and more people support him.

The expected fierce competition did not come, and the deputy leader seemed to realize that he was already larger than himself in the group.

So he took the initiative to recommend the king and was willing to assist Eldred.

The king readily agreed, and just like that, he naturally became the leader of the Demon Searchers.

But he was still worried about his former deputy leader, and it took him a year to get him to resign and leave the Demon Searcher team.

From that moment on, the Demon Searchers corps was truly under his control.

He began to dream about realizing his ambition, but the reality was cruel. After he became the leader, he failed to achieve any results for two consecutive years.

Until one day, he came up with a bold idea.

That is, allowing mages to become demon seekers and use the power of mages to fight against mages.

The idea received parliamentary support and was implemented.

The demon seekers began to search for mages who could be recruited among the people, and at that time they discovered a mage with special abilities.

That is Silas, who has the special ability to see other magic powers.

Silas was recruited as a demon seeker, but not long after, something big happened. A team of demon seekers and their guards were all killed by Silas.

Although according to the investigation, this should be caused by a case of out-of-control magic, Silas still became the sinner.

The demon seekers launched a hunt for him, but Silas proved to be more powerful and difficult than anyone expected.

In the end, the demon seekers took advantage of Silas's trust in his friend Vistilia and finally captured him.

Silas, who had committed such a serious crime, should have been sentenced to death, but Eldred felt that it would be a pity for him to die like this given his special abilities.

So, he found a way to keep Silas and imprisoned him in the dungeon.

After becoming the leader, he became increasingly confused about the situation of the demon seekers. It was clear that they had been working hard to capture the mages and maintain peace.

Even if you encounter many things during this period, you have to turn a blind eye.

But they never forgot their original intention and wanted to expel all mages for the sake of peace in Demacia.

But what he got in the end was always a lot of blank stares.

He has not forgotten that he wants everyone to respect the ideals of the demon seekers.

However, it is extremely difficult to achieve this. Demon seekers need greater achievements to gain people's recognition.

Maybe it was from that time on that I started to go astray.

He began to conduct more experiments on the mage.

In his eyes, mages are inferior human beings, on the same level as those monsters, so he has no mercy at all.

The experiment once again paid off, as the efficiency of capturing mages became faster and faster, and the safety rate became higher and higher.

He felt that the Demon Searcher's ratings finally seemed to be improving.

After all, in such a huge country, there are always places that you cannot see.

The emergence of a cult made the king disappointed with the demon seekers.

But he felt that all this could be undone, as long as the demon seekers didn't let the king down again.

However, everything seems to be too late.

That day, the king came up with the idea of ​​pardoning the mage.

At that moment, Eldred was stunned.

Looking back on the past, from the time when I could read and remember things, I am now sixty-three years old.

For nearly sixty years, more than 20,000 days, he devoted almost his entire life to the cause of banning demons, devoting everything he had to Demacia.

The two words "forbidden demon" have become an inseparable and inseparable relationship.

Eldred thought that this might be all he had in life, and it would be all he had. If nothing unexpected happened, he might be relieved of his responsibility as a demon hunter on the day he died.

But the king actually wanted to pardon the mage. This may have been his idea for a long time.

By pardoning the mages, all the mages in the world are no longer guilty and do not need to be arrested and imprisoned. So why do we still need to search for demons?

It was only a matter of time before the Demon Searchers were abolished.

Then it stands to reason that he, the leader of the Demon Searchers Corps, is useless.

How can this be done?

In this case, what is the meaning of his life? Does it end like a drama?

He once thought about his life after he was no longer a demon hunter, but what he came up with was a blank.

He simply could not imagine a day when he would no longer be a demon hunter.

The Demon Searcher was already his life.

But the king's weakening of the demon seekers became increasingly clear. He watched as the demon seekers were reduced by half overnight, but there was nothing he could do.

Until this time, Turt found him.

Turt is a representative of the nobles. He once supported him in the parliament to become the leader of the Demon Seeker Corps, and also supported his decision-making of using mages against mages.

So they have always been in contact, but they rarely communicate in depth.

Even after entering Demacia society, he has always been a withdrawn leader of the demon-seeking corps, who is not easy to get along with.

Kurt found him, and the other person seemed to know what he was doing in private.

Then Turt came up with the bold idea of ​​planning a rebellion.

A rebellion of mages, this country needs a crisis to wake up.

When the mage wreaks havoc in the city, the king and the people will be reminded of the time when the magic hunters are needed.

At this time, he only needs to lead the demon searchers to take action.

Such a rebellious mage caused panic, and the demon seeker who saved it all naturally became a hero.

The people need heroes, and demon seekers are perfect for this position.

Eldred was indeed tempted, and he had indeed thought about creating a big trouble that a country could not solve, but that demon seekers could solve.

In this way, the position of the demon searcher could be stabilized, but in the end he gave up.

But this time, it seemed that it had to be done.

He didn't understand why Tourt wanted to do this for him. Tourt's answer was that he wanted more power, and supporting the magic seekers was obviously a good investment.

Eldred finally agreed.

He never thought about killing Jarvan III. In comparison, what he needed more was Jarvan III's approval. He needed the third generation to recognize the demon seekers and reuse them.

That way he is not useless, he is still the leader of the Demon Seeker Corps, and still has the responsibility of continuing to capture the mages.

Sooner or later, demon seekers will truly gain the respect of everyone.

That is what Eldred has worked hard all his life to see.

But it seems that I can't see it.

From the moment he rushed to the palace to rescue him and saw the body of Jarvan III, Eldred realized that everything was beyond his expectation.

He was taken aboard the pirate ship and had to continue sailing.

However, all of this was just a trick of the second prince.

From the first moment he saw him, Eldred had a vague feeling that this person was not simple.

However, he still underestimated this prince who was recovered from the people. He had clearly made his extraordinary qualities obvious, but no one thought it was true.

Everyone thought that Jiawen III must be secretly supporting the prince, and the good things he showed were just what the III wanted them to see.

From the beginning, everyone underestimated him.

He had guessed Turt's plan from the beginning and had made preparations in advance. It seemed that he had calculated everything and was waiting for this day to arrive.

Things were revealed.

It's too late.

Crogger was dead, Josie was dead, and Tourt was dead, and he was left.

He knew that there was no turning back, so he simply gave up.

In the past few years, he has been the leader of the Demon Searcher Corps, and he has not wasted the resources brought by this position. He has also discovered some very extraordinary things, such as this rune and the feather of the Winged Guardian God.

He has even broken through the difficulty of using these two powers.

But in the end, is it just one step away?

This step is like climbing to the sky.

At this point, the demon seekers will be completely driven into the abyss.

In the end, everything turned out to be a wedding dress for the prince.

He is not willing to give in. He is really not willing to give in. In this case, what is the meaning of his entire life! ?

"Damn it!!"

Eldred roared unwillingly, and a burst of extraordinary energy suddenly burst out from his body, and he broke free from Galio's hand.

A pair of broken wings spread out, Eldred suddenly stared at the second prince who was secretly relieved, and rushed away in the next second, like an afterimage, very fast.

Such a scene was beyond everyone's expectations.

"Made, come again?"

Lu Qi, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, couldn't help but become angry when he saw this.

He very much doubted whether he had any buff that attracted the boss's hatred.

But no matter what, the person passing by him is not the fault of a clay figure!

The next moment, a powerful Wuji Sword Intent emerged from Lu Qi's body. The wind instantly surrounded his whole body, and a transcendent and rich aura spread towards the surroundings, making it suffocating.

"The wind is coming!"

As he slashed out with all his strength, a flash of light burst out from the long snow-white blade, and then a tornado of wind roared out!

The huge tornado exuded a terrifying aura, blew up smoke and dust all over the place, and flew towards the charging Eldred at an extremely fast speed, directly smashing the broken bricks it rolled up on the way.

Eldred's hands also condensed a magical energy and then released it.

"boom!!"

The two forces collided, causing a loud noise. Eldred broke through the tornado, but found that Lu Qi disappeared from his eyes, and couldn't help but be slightly startled.

"Here it is!"

Lu Qi's voice suddenly came from behind.

Eldred turned around subconsciously, and was met with a sword. The sharp sword light flashed past, and he was severely knocked away by the instantaneous blow.

Then I saw the wind energy on Lu Qi's body, which was concentrated to the extreme at this moment!

His entire aura also reached its peak at this moment!

The next second, he stepped in the air, bursting out with a burst of extremely fast speed, like an arrow from the string, flying through the air. At the same time, several sharp sword lights flashed, which was dazzling and difficult to fathom.

Astonishingly, it was——Breaking Wind! !

With a "click", the anti-magic shell Eldred wore shattered. He felt as if his body was being torn apart, and huge waves surged in his heart.

This second prince is actually so strong.

He tried to release the magical energy in his body to fight back, but Lu Qi pierced his heart with a sword, shattering all Eldred's unwillingness.

The rapid loss of the two forces also represents the loss of vitality.

At the last moment, what Eldred saw was the blue sky of Demacia.

It's really beautiful.
