Lux's Farewell

Awakening Renekton wouldn't be difficult with Kal'a around.

The subsequent elemental transformation can be regarded as a mature process.

The only problem is that this process takes a long time.

Unfortunately, only Kalya could handle this matter - but in desperation, his return to Demacia was once again delayed.

He couldn't just watch Renekton go crazy here, could he?

Awakening Renekton is easy.

All he had to do was pull him into Kalya's little world—a place where he could be isolated from the influence of the Void and awaken Renekton.

Even if he couldn't be awakened successfully, at least he could always maintain his sanity in the small world.

Kalya had confirmed this with Aatrox during the Battle of Tobitsia.

And now, in Renekton, this also takes effect.

Although Kalya's small world is small, even though the sparrow is small and has all the internal organs, it is also an "incomplete demiplane". Before the power of the void erodes the space laws of this demiplane, Kalya can still get rid of it. dropped.

When Renekton was pulled into his little world by Kalya, Renekton's expression, which he hadn't figured out yet, fell into a dull expression.

"Ah, Teacher Kalya, you are indeed the God of Death." Renekton said with a serious expression, "Did you come to pick me up?"

"Pick you up?" Kalya's blood pressure suddenly rose. "I picked you up, and you were eroded by the void. Haven't you noticed yet?"

"Huh?" Renekton was stunned for a moment, and then he realized, "I'm not dead?"

"How can an ascended person die so easily?" Karya snorted, "It's not bad. Looking at you now, the problem shouldn't be serious."

"So, what's wrong with me?" Renekton didn't seem to fully understand his situation. "I'm just looking for a way to recreate the ascension ceremony... Is it the Shark Pearl?"

"It seems that your brain is not broken yet." Kalya nodded, "Now you can tell me, Renekton, why did you choose to host a game about something you don't understand at all? An ascension ritual in which things serve as energy sources?”

"There's something wrong with those pearls?" Renekton was still in disbelief. "It's impossible. Those sharks said that these pearls can be exchanged for moon stones with people on Mount Targon. Didn't someone from Imperial University verify it before? The sun disk It can also absorb moonlight..."

"When does being able to exchange moonstones equal having moonlight?" Kalya's tone was somewhat habitual questioning, so much so that Renekton's thick crocodile neck couldn't help but shrink back. Standing up, "Also, have you ever taken ritual studies? What gave you this confidence?"

"I...I audited a few classes." Renekton lowered his head, and there was no expression on the crocodile's face. "So, was it the ceremony that made me lose consciousness?"

"Well, a few Bakai were born." Looking at his appearance, Karya finally could only shake her head, "The deep-sea pearls are contaminated with the breath of the void, and your two-knife ritual also infected yourself."

"Then wouldn't I become... a dark descendant?"

"It's not as good as a dark descendant." At this point, Kalya's anger couldn't help but boil up. "You can still be sober here, but once you leave here, you will become a madman."

"Then what should we do?" Renekton was dumbfounded, "How could this happen?"

"Don't you have any respect for ritual spells?" Kalya shook his head, "Now you need to learn the advanced element introduction and element control theory here, and then transform your body and elementalize yourself."

"Elementalization?" Renekton blinked, "Can I choose my own elements?"

"Theoretically, it's possible." Kalya's eyes were calm, "But that depends on your study of the introduction to elements and element control."

"Then if you don't learn so well..."

"Then it's up to me to help. When the time comes, you have no choice but to prepare a sandy body for yourself."

"Teacher Kalya." When Renekton heard this, he finally forced a dry smile on his face, "I know that your control over gold is much stronger than that of yellow sand——"

"Don't even think about it." Kalya shook his head decisively, "Azir didn't even get a body of gold, so you still want to get a body of gold?"

"Azir is still alive?" Renekton's eyes widened, "He has also become elemental?"

"Want to know?" Kalya's expression was calm. Renekton tried hard to see something from his face, but unfortunately he couldn't see anything at all. "Of course I want to know..."

"Then study hard." Kalya ignored the other party's expectant gaze, "When you master the elementalization and can leave here soberly, you will know everything."

Renekton wanted to ask, but the next moment, a tome as thick as turning his head was pressed into his face.

"Don't ask, learn!"

........................

Kalya loves being a teacher.

Although he was in a bad mood because his schedule was delayed, he still entered the state perfectly after entering the teaching state.

But unfortunately, Kalya is a good teacher, but Renekton is not a good student.

Renekton was different from Nasus in that he had nothing to do with scholars - he was good at running rampant on the battlefield, but it would really cost him his life to study magical theories.

Renekton has keen combat intuition, and his reaction speed is also very good, so he is a natural combatant. He can charge into battle, or he can serve as a vanguard or even a commander after accumulating a certain amount of experience.

But he has a specialization in the art, and in his eyes, the more than 3000 pages of advanced element introduction is more troublesome than the [-] enemy troops.

His keen intuition allows him to perform at a higher level in battle, but he is prone to self-righteousness in academics - he is already impatient because he wants to know Azir's situation. When the two are combined, the result is Karl In aspects that have not been discussed before, he will first form an understanding of "drawing inferences from one example to other cases".

However, this kind of cognition is intuitive and irrational. In the courses of Introduction to Advanced Elements, every one of them is a typical negative example.

Therefore, Kalya had to spend more time explaining everything in detail, trying his best to eliminate Renekton's wrong inferences.

As a result, the already long teaching process was further delayed.

Kalya, who could not return to Demacia for the time being, could only entrust Shyvana to deliver a message to her and communicate with Lux remotely.

Kalya has not experienced this slow and inefficient way of communication for a long time, and for him, this is also a kind of nostalgia.

However, for Lux, in the second year after leaving Kalya, she rarely experienced the feeling of being in a hurry again.

…………………… Originally, after Kalya set off for Ixtar, Lux thought that she had gradually become accustomed to making decisions on her own.

Although Demacia still has many internal problems and the industry needs to slowly turn around, from Lux's point of view, everything is indeed developing in the direction she expected.

The contradiction between the north and the south is not a problem at all under the premise of economic development and market prosperity. As long as we seize this precious window period and transfer some suitable industries in the south, the subsequent differences between the north and the south can also gradually narrow.

However, just when everything seemed to be on track, a piece of news from the north disrupted all Lux's arrangements.

An urgent message came from the Freljord's intelligence team.

At the same time, a man who claimed to be the "Frost Guard Messenger" came to the door and asked Lux ​​to go to Freljord to form an alliance.

Alliance?

How is this going?

The confused Lux ​​first chose to accept the intelligence from the intelligence team, and after the intelligence was deciphered, she quickly frowned.

According to the intelligence team, they also met the Frost Guard envoy at the Rakstak station, and the other party's words were to invite an alliance.

But before that, the intelligence team had not received any relevant information.

The Guild Alliance is a very important thing in Freljord. The ceremony of the Guild Alliance needs to be prepared in advance, especially the Guild Alliance in Rakstak, which needs to be prepared in advance - this is a sacred thing. There is no room for carelessness.

An alliance was notified to the Demacians, but the intelligence team directly found the intelligence team's station and the leader of the intelligence team without finding any traces of preparations in advance. This is not a normal situation.

Moreover, the Frost Guard tribe who came to the door also made the intelligence team murmur.

Although the trade between the North and the Freljord has been going on for more than 20 years, the intelligence team also has a general understanding of the situation in the western Freljord, and gradually the ownership of natural resources such as pastures and lakes. The door was clear, and the power of the Freljord tribe was gradually understood.

But the Frost Guard tribe still belongs to the "background board" category for the intelligence team.

No way, the Freljord is too big.

The headquarters of the Frost Guard Tribe is in the Frost Guard Fortress, and the Frost Guard Fortress is among the mountains of East Freljord. If there weren't some Frost Guard priests walking on the ice fields, I'm afraid the intelligence team would even I’ve never heard of the name!

Moreover, the intelligence team mainly relies on the power of the Avarosa tribe. Although the Avarosa tribe has maintained many Freljord traditions, it has always been unfriendly to the Frostguard priests.

Although these priests are rare healers on the ice sheet, being willing to accept them means that the tribe has some medical protection. However, for some reasons that the intelligence team does not know, Ashe is wary of the Frost Guard priests and would rather come from the north. They would pay a greater price to obtain medicinal materials in cross-border trade, and were unwilling to accept Frostguard priests to join the Avarosa tribe.

As a result, the intelligence team only knew some hearsay information about the Frostguard tribe.

The special geographical environment has led to the extreme isolation between different tribes in Freljord. Even though the Avarosa tribe occupies the Raxtak Wasteland, it is also in contact with the surrounding tribes, but the members of the intelligence team can collect The information is also quite limited.

Therefore, when the envoy of the Frostguard Tribe, a man who claimed to be the Frostguard Priest, came to the Avarosa Tribe and asked to see the Demacia envoy by name, the intelligence team stationed in Rakstark City was caught off guard. .

This is not the most fatal.

The most terrible thing is that just when everyone in the intelligence team was muttering, the Frost Guard messenger had a clear understanding of the intelligence team.

Yes, although the intelligence team didn't know much about the Frostguard tribe, the Frostguard priest seemed to know the intelligence team very well - he even mentioned the hometown of the leader of the intelligence team and the envoy in Avarosa.

It's killing me.

The leader of the intelligence team, who had served as the envoy within the Avarosa tribe for ten years, had no means of dealing with it at all. He could not make a decision on his own, so he could only delay the Frost Guard envoy, and at the same time use secret channels to provide him with the information as soon as possible. Lux texted back.

The above is the news from the intelligence team.

But what is even more bizarre is that another person who claims to be the Frost Guard messenger came to Fosbarrow almost at the same time as this information.

After reading the news sent back by the intelligence team, Lux immediately launched the intelligence team's internal review.

Judging from the cryptographic imprint of the intelligence, the members of the intelligence team who sent the letter did not encounter any interference in the process of delivering the message, and there was no problem with the intelligence network.

This information is reliable!

So... is it a coincidence that the Frost Guard messenger arrived at Forsbarrow together with the intelligence?

the answer is negative.

When Lux suppressed the doubts in her heart and met with the Frost Guard envoy, the other party directly mentioned the information sent back by the intelligence team in a very direct and not very standard Demacian language.

This Frost Guard messenger also knew that "a piece of information was sent back"!

Lux was well-informed, and her first reaction was that the other party was deceiving her.

But judging from the behavior and tone of the blindfolded messenger, this does not seem to be fraud.

Lux, who gradually became proficient in acting after getting to know Kalya, has a better say in whether to judge whether it is a bluff or a conviction.

She was very convinced that this woman who claimed to "follow the will of the Frost Witch" and took the initiative to find her really knew that she had received a piece of information from the intelligence team.

Lux, who realized something was wrong, reacted immediately and quietly tried to test the opponent's channels in turn, but unfortunately, this Frost Guard envoy was very strict.

"A witch's will does not need a reason." Her voice was extremely cold, as if it were ice forever. "This is a notice from the Frost Witch."

Using the word notice in diplomatic language made Lux's expression stiffen for a moment.

She really didn't know why the other party, when facing a leader of a force with whom she had never had any contact before, just said "Notice to come and join the alliance".

Is this crazy?
"Witches can always discern the thoughts of those who are trying to hide them." The Frost Guard messenger continued, "And you, Your Excellency Laxana, the witch has seen everything about you."

Due to Kalya's influence, Lux has never been very interested in mysticism.

But at this moment, she still couldn't help but miss Kalya.

Learned teacher Karya, do you know what is going on?
