Chapter 901 Sentinels of Light, assemble!

Ionia.

A woman with a slender figure, wearing light and close-fitting armor, was climbing up the mountain stairs step by step. Her long hair was swaying and she looked heroic.

Anyone who sees her will know that she is an extremely powerful female warrior. It is hard to imagine that just seven or eight years ago, she was just a simple and innocent little girl who loved dancing.

At the age of 21, Irelia was already a feared blade dancer in the Noxian army, and the battle that made her famous was the Battle of Presidence that changed the situation between the two sides seven years ago.

At the age of 14, she cut off one of Swain's arms in the midst of thousands of troops and raised it above her head, thwarting Noxus' aggressive ambitions and kicking off Ionia's counterattack.

Since then, she has become the leader of the resistance, leading Ionia in a bloody battle for three years before finally driving out the Noxian army.

However, more than ten years of war have also torn the originally peaceful Ionia into pieces. Internal disputes have continued. In some cases, the war has become more fierce than when Noxus invaded. Therefore, Irelia has not been able to stop. Every day Everyone is busy.

But the fact that she is here alone today is not because of any war.

Two months ago, a couple named Lucian and Senna visited her and told her about the horrors of Soul Eating Night and Shadow Island.

It was a disaster that would sweep across the entire Rune Continent. No one could escape. If the black mist continued to grow, even the gods might be controlled by the Curse of Destruction!

Senna invited her and some strong men from Ionia to join the Sentinels of Light, who would gather in Bilgewater before this year's Night of Souls to kill Foego, the Ruined King, in advance.

Irelia was very hesitant at first, because Ionia couldn't do without her, but she remembered her grandmother's teachings that the strength of one person is never as good as the strength of the collective. No one can survive alone in the face of disaster, and she thought of Ionia. Asia has been forcibly closed by the Noxian army, and sooner or later it will have to come into contact with various countries and regions.

This might be an opportunity. She agreed to Senna's invitation, but she did not intend to bring her comrade Akali and others with her. They would have to keep an eye on her while she was away.

One powerful helper is enough.

Just like the person she came to visit today.

Climbing the last step, Irelia looked up at the mountain gate - Shuoji Temple.

Two monks hurriedly greeted her and saluted her. Irelia also looked solemn and respectfully said: "Irelia, please see Master Li Qing."

…

Piltover North.

On a passenger ship that was sailing to Piltover, on the bow of the ship, a girl whose appearance and figure was covered by a thick robe, and who could only be seen to be a petite woman, was looking at the coast in the distance.

"Is that island Piltover?" She suddenly murmured in confusion: "Why does it look a little desolate? Isn't Piltover very prosperous, with high-rise buildings everywhere?"

A knight-like man next to him also frowned strangely. His good eyesight allowed him to see clearly the edge of the island. The gravel and desert sand looked like a natural beach without any trace of a modern port. There seemed to be several tall buildings standing inside, but what I could vaguely see couldn't be called beautiful, and there were jungles surrounding them.

"Miss Crown Guard." He lowered his voice and said, "I haven't been to Piltover either. Maybe there is some secret inside. We'll find out when we get to the shore."

"I've said it many times, Erza, just call me Lux." The girl corrected.

Laxana Crownguard, the daughter of the famous Crownguard family in Demacia and the sister of General Galen, is also known as the Light of Demacia.

In Demacia, where magic is forbidden, Laxana is a very special being. She used her innate magical brilliance to heal the pain of many injured warriors, and helped Demacia fight Noxus. He is admired by everyone and is the only magician who has broken the national concept.

Born and behaved like a little princess, she has always been approachable and approachable to let people call herself Lux. However, as one of her attendants, Erza verbally agreed, but would never actually call her that.

Their trip was at the invitation of the Philos family in Piltover to learn about a new 'mysterious product' of the Philos family.

Originally, Lux should not have led the team here, but for some reason, Lux, who has always been well-behaved and independent, insisted on coming to Piltover after hearing about this exchange, saying that she had always wanted to see Demacia. the outside world.

Simply speaking, Piltover has long established a stable maritime trade route and has never encountered danger. The internal development of Piltover has also made it impossible for the assassination of Noxus last year to happen again. Jarvan, who successfully ascended the throne not long ago, The fourth generation agreed to this trip of Lux, whom he regarded as his younger sister.

This is indeed the first time Lux has left Demacia, so the attendants and guards are always very cautious and guard her at all times.

"Hey, the ship didn't turn. Is it really just a desert island?" Two minutes later, Lux was confused again: "But why don't I remember that there is such a desert island on the Piltover route? There are some buildings on it. …”

"Hahaha, little girl, where are you from?" At this time, a burst of laughter came from not far away, making Esa look warily.

I saw a middle-aged man with sparse hair but a kind face approaching slowly: "There really wasn't that island a month ago, but now it is. Guys who frequent this trade route and nearby have long known about it. , your information is really ill-informed, maybe you come from far away?”

A month ago... not yet?

Lux showed curiosity, and her good knowledge made her think of a possibility immediately.

"Could it be... a change in the tide? The city of Piltover that was swallowed by the tsunami three hundred years ago reappeared on land?"

The middle-aged man was stunned and muttered: "What are you talking about... No, no, haha, the island was moved from a faraway place by the great Mr. Seville!"

Lux: "?"

What are you talking about? !

"Unbelievable, right?" The middle-aged man smiled: "I was the same when I first heard about it, but it's not just one or two people saying that. The Philos family directly announced it, and many people even said that they saw the flying island with their own eyes. It can only be true.

Everyone has long heard that Mr. Seville is not only a great inventor, but also a powerful wizard, but I didn't expect his magic to be so powerful that he could move an island!"

Lux: "!"

"According to the information released by the Philos family, he is going to build a 'Seville Magic Academy' on this island, recruiting students from the whole world and imparting magic knowledge. Well... I'm I can't expect to learn magic at my age, but my kid has been collecting and learning magic knowledge like crazy since he heard the news. He spent a lot of money half-heartedly. I haven't been doing business in person for a long time. This trip is really tiring. "

He seemed to be complaining, but his chest was straight, expecting pride: "I don't know if the kid has any talent... I hope Mr. Sewell will lower the standard for the sake of Piltover people."

Lux is very familiar with this emotion, because there are many such people in Demacia. They are extremely proud of the country they came from. This is a feeling that belongs exclusively to big countries.

But the feelings of the Piltover woman in front of her are even more than that. Lux can understand it. At this moment, her heart is like the waves, and she can't help but look at the island again.

At least as big as the main city of Demacia.

Let it... fly over?!

Lux, who is also a magician, knows how incredible this is. She is struggling to control the magic in her body, but Seville has already used magic to do things that are 1,000 or 10,000 times beyond her limit? !

The middle-aged man didn't know how many outsiders he had told about this matter. Seeing Lux's reaction, he was not surprised. He smiled and said, "Little girl, welcome to the center of the world, Piltover. Don't be surprised by anything you see here."

Piltover used to only call itself a technology center, but now it has evolved.

Lux's politeness made her barely suppress her surprise and turned around and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome. Meeting is fate. If you get into trouble in Piltover, you can come to the Soslin family to find me. Of course, the law enforcement officers in Piltover are also fair and selfless."

"Thank you." Lux said again.

Of course she didn't need it, because she knew that the Philos family would entertain her well, and Lux ​​wanted to see Ji Xing very much at this time.

She vaguely felt that an unprecedented change would start from Piltover, and the whole world would be affected, especially Demacia, which banned magic.

A mage with the power to move the gods of the island was going to create a magic academy to popularize magic. The whole world would participate. Could Demacia still be excluded from this incident?

Essa and other attendants and guards also smelled the smell of the storm, and felt that the burden of Piltover was much heavier this time.

Miss Crown Guard... should be able to handle it?

They were in a heavy mood and did not notice that Lux's face flashed a faint entanglement.

Half an hour later, they finally landed, and Lux ​​and his party went straight to the Ferros family. But it was a pity for Lux and others that Ji Xing was not in Piltover, and the return date was uncertain, and they didn't know how long they would have to wait.

Soon this regret was dispersed by an additional shock. They felt the strong taste of each guard in the Ferros family, just like a battle-hardened soldier with extremely strong qualities.

Then they learned about the Ascension Potion!

The influence of this kind of thing is no less than that of Seville's island move. It is a strategic material that can substantially change the comparison of national power. Essa is very glad that Lux is here, because Lux's status is enough to participate in and decide part of Demacia's future.

At the same time, he is very frustrated that Lux is here, and he is worried whether Lux can bear this pressure.

Lux is more decisive than he expected.

One cooperation after another was reached through the negotiations between her and Camille. She tried her best to fight for the interests of Demacia, and dared to make some concessions that might cause controversy when she was reported back to the country, and even allowed the Demacia mages who awakened magic on their own to leave and come to Piltover to study.

You know, those guys who awakened magic would have been captured by the demon hunters!

The negotiations ended quickly, and Essa and other guards persuaded Lux ​​to change some terms with Lady Camille, but Lux refused on the grounds that she was tired from the journey and needed to rest.

Seeing that Lux's face was indeed full of fatigue, the guards could only let Lux take a nap in the residence arranged by Philos and guard outside.

It was not until dinner time that Essa knocked on Lux's bedroom door, but received no response for a long time.

He gradually panicked and knocked open Lux's door. As expected, Lux was nowhere to be seen. He screamed in fear and caught a glimpse of a letter on the table and the beautiful handwriting on it.

"I'm sorry, Essa, everyone. I actually have other goals when I leave Demacia this time. I was originally worried about delaying my work, but the ascension potion of Seville and Ferros who moved the island helped me make up my mind. Let's do everything according to what I discussed with Lady Camille.

I will take all the responsibilities. Leaving just makes me not worry about regrets. As for where I'm going... keep it secret for now. Don't worry, I will return safely. If my brother blames you, I will go back and beat him! - Luxana Crownguard"

"Miss Crownguard..."

At the same time, on a large ship heading to Bilgewater, Lux, with her face covered, looked back at Piltover who was gradually being thrown away, and exhaled a long breath.

Half a year ago, Demacia rejected Senna's request for help, but Lux always remembered the Shadow Isles. Light is used to drive away darkness!

Her light is naturally restrained by undead creatures. She believes that she, who has this power, should have contributed to the Soul-Eating Night!

However, she did not expect that the Piltover group, who had used it as an excuse to transfer, would actually see and hear such a big thing, and Lux ​​believed that her decision was not wrong.

Demacia must usher in changes. People who are born with magic are not sinful! Magic has never been an evil force. The only difference is the people who use it!

"Sever... a powerful wizard who can move the island, has Sister Senna invited you?"

...

Bilgewater.

"No. 379, No. 379..."

A young man with a mustache and dressed as a Shuriman walked on the road, muttering a house number, "Ah, it's here!"

He stopped in front of an unremarkable building, raised his eyebrows, and knocked on the door.

Soon the door was opened, and a middle-aged man who looked a little depressed appeared. He spread his hands and said, "Is this the gathering place for the Sentinels of Light? I am Akshan, a Sentinel of Shurima."

"I can see that." Raven forced a smile: "Welcome to Bilgewater, I am Raven, responsible for entertaining you Sentinels."

"Really?" Akshan spun a strange gun in his hand and followed Raven in. Only then did he find that there was a different world behind the building, which was very spacious.

While looking at the environment, he asked, "There is still half a month before the gathering time. I won't be the first to arrive, right?"

Raven shrugged and gestured to the side.

Akshan's shoulders were suddenly hugged by a strong arm, and at the same time, the heat and bold voice were captured by his ears.

"Haha, a Shurima? Are you armed with a gun and a knife? You look like a warrior! I'm Olaf, an ice man, nice to meet you! I heard that the emperor of Shurima has been resurrected? They are called God Warriors? Very strong, right!"

Akshan almost took action, but paused when he heard Olaf's name, and said helplessly: "It turned out to be you, enthusiastic ice man, I learned your name from Sister Senna, how come the War Mother of Winter Claw is here too?"

"Sejuani is not interested in the Soul-Eating Night." Olaf said: "Now there are only two Noxian women here besides us. They are boring, especially the Spider Woman, who likes to tie people up and hang them on the beams. Don't say I didn't advise you, don't mess with her, friend!"

"I didn't want to mess with anyone, I came to deal with the Black Mist." Akshan broke away from Olaf's arms, a little curious, Spider Woman?

The next moment, he keenly noticed that there was a plump and graceful woman standing on the windowsill on the second floor, smiling dangerously at Olaf.

"I told you not to argue, barbarian."

Olaf looked up: "Hahaha..."

Half a minute later, Akshan looked straight at Olaf, who was tied into a cocoon by spider silk and hung on the beam, swaying in the wind, and the corners of his mouth gradually curved up.

"What an interesting ability..."

So, the cocoon became two.

Olaf: "Hahaha..."

Akshan: "..."

Reven, who returned to the room, shook his head: "Bilgewater is going to be lively."
