Lux's Farewell

Chapter 933【0927】The future is coming

Winters in the Iron Thorn Mountains are always long.

Even in the Dredge Fort, which is surrounded by mountains, the temperature is significantly lower than in the north and lower than anywhere in Demacia under the breath of Anivia.

For the Northern Expeditionary Army who are waiting for the end of winter, this winter is destined to be long.

Even though the supplies are sufficient and the daily life and training are fulfilling, everyone still prefers to go back indoors and sit around the campfire compared to outdoor activities.

During this season, those who use fire magic are obviously more popular. They are often warm around them, and they can light a fire anytime and anywhere to do anything conveniently - even Avarosa. Among people, many people have a bit of envy silently born in their hearts.

Due to the scarcity of supplies, the difference between Lux's daily rations and that of ordinary soldiers is only a little tea and a dessert. Although she doesn't care much about the cold, she is used to Demacia's mild climate and the tranquility after heavy snowfall. Still making Lux a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Lux didn't have much time to EMO. As the supreme commander of the coalition forces, she had a lot of work to do, and once she got busy, Lux was not in the mood to care about the weather.

Contrary to Lacus, although Kalya doesn't like snowy days, he can now stay in his own little world safely and enjoy endless sunbathing.

In the past, Lacus left many mundane tasks to Kalya, but in the past few years, the situation seems to have been completely reversed. Kalya returned to the small world to fish more and more frequently, but Lacus gradually became familiar with the infinite world. Wandering among endless official documents and official duties.

It was hard work, but Lux obviously enjoyed it—these pieces of work were pieced together to form the broad road she chose.

Of course, Kalya is not really just fishing.

In fact, for him, being able to be completely quiet in a small world helps him think.

What Kalya was thinking had nothing to do with the Freljord or Demacia, but with himself - he was thinking about his future.

The word future is actually a bit luxurious for Kalya now.

After giving up eternity, his future is no longer endless. Although the body moving in Runeterra is an elemental body, Kalya can always sensitively feel the passage of time.

Although it is far from the point where "there is not much time left", Kalya believes that he already needs to plan for the future.

Unlike many people, Kalya still has some choices for his future.

First of all, the invitation from the Mother of Masks has been sent. Kalya can choose to embrace death, or simply walk with death to make the desert god of death live up to his name.

Objectively speaking, this should be a good choice. After experiencing immortal loneliness, death is not cruel to Kalya, but rather attractive.

But just embracing death like this, Kalya was still a little unwilling to do so.

It's okay to die well, but if it's death after aging... it's a bit boring.

And if you are unwilling to embrace death and want to regain immortality, Kalya has several paths.

The simplest thing is that he can completely close himself in his own little world and become immortal in eternal loneliness - of course, as long as there is nothing wrong with his mind, he will not do this - that is not regaining immortality, that is giving him immortality. Punish yourself.

In addition to this stupid method, if Kalya wants to regain immortality, there is actually another way.

The simplest way is to connect your own small world with Runeterra.

In this case, the small world can become a new "spiritual world", and Kalya, like all the spirits of Ionia, can obtain immortality in the spiritual world, and maintain the relationship with Runeland through knowledge and belief. Keep in touch.

The path looked pretty good, but Kalja was rather hesitant about it.

Mainly, he has also come into contact with all spirits. Although those ancient immortal existences look great, have incense in Ionia, and can be considered nourished in the spiritual world, in the final analysis, it is also a kind of self-exile.

And this kind of self-exile will inevitably lead to conservatism - Kalya is not afraid of his own annihilation, he is most afraid that one day he will become what he hates most.

In addition, once the small world and Runeterra are bound, the relationship between the two parties will become closer and influence each other.

That means that the maintenance difficulty of this small world has increased exponentially. Considering that Kalya is the only "administrator", the subsequent immortality will be overtime for him.

Endless overtime...it just sucks.

And if you don't choose to make a fuss in your own little world and are unwilling to embrace death, then Kalya can consider changing your life form.

Elemental life spans are very long.

And what is longer than the elemental life is the celestial life.

And... the devil.

Yes, for Kalya, becoming a demon is also a path - to be honest, he had never thought about this path in the past. It was not until he imprisoned three demons and learned about the power of demons that Kalya was surprised. Suddenly, he discovered that he seemed to have the potential to become a devil.

Extreme emotions are the basis for the birth of demons, and if Kalya is willing, Runeterra may be able to give birth to a just demon who weighs everything.

Well, the demon of justice, Kalya, sounds much stronger than the desert god of death.

Of course, the price of becoming a demon is that Kalya will lose part of himself - specifically, his emotions will be greatly weakened, and eventually only his demonic origin will remain.

This is the path that every demon must take.

In this case, even if the three demons are trying their best to persuade Kalya to "become one of them", and are even willing to become a dependent demon of the Demon of Justice, even if he becomes Azakana, there is no problem, but Carl Ya still decisively gave up this unreliable idea.

Why bother.

I'm not a devil.

After ruling out the possibility of becoming a demon, the next thing Kalya had to consider was the possibility of becoming a being in the heavenly realm.

To be honest, Kalya himself is still looking forward to this road.

His long life and rich experiences have given him a considerable understanding of Runeterra. This is a magical world, but if possible, Kalya also hopes to roam in the heavens and witness the boundless starry sky. , more worlds. Moreover, in Kalya's view, as long as Rune Land can properly resolve the crisis in the void, it will be inevitable to move to the star realm. Since he has chosen to be the pioneer of Rune Land, becoming a life in the heavens will naturally come first. Participated!

The biggest problem for Kalya on this path is that he has no way to become a being in the heavenly realm.

Yes, this was the only path that Kalya didn't know how to take.

Although Kalya was once an ascended person and had the means to utilize the power of heaven, he really had no idea how to turn himself into a heavenly being like a giant god.

Those giants may have a certain knack, which can be seen from the changes in Tahm and LeBlanc.

But considering that the relationship between Kalya and them is not that good, it may not be that easy to get this trick.

In addition to Tamu and LeBlanc's path, becoming a protoss seems to also be temporarily transformed into a celestial being - the Winged Sisters who are still in Forsbarrow are "half-celestial beings", and they eventually failed to Being able to complete the ceremony of ascending to the star and becoming a god has not completed the long steps to ascend to the god, so it can only be regarded as half.

Maybe I can study Kyle and Morgana?

In the small world, Kalya was lying on a deck chair, enjoying the sunlight and silently thinking about the possibility of becoming a being in the heaven.

It would be great if I could catch a real heavenly being and study it.

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

Just when Kalya was thinking about where to find a real celestial being, a little girl opened a portal in Kashuli.

When this wormhole-like portal filled with colorful light appeared majestically on the streets of Kashuli, then a little girl with colorful hair said in ancient Shurima, "Don't worry, Dragon Dragon." , I will definitely help you catch them." As he got out of the portal and blew up a rainbow-like bubble, the pedestrians on the streets of Kashuli were obviously frightened.

Considering that after the Ionian War, the spiritual world of Ionia was not very stable, this kind of portal that appeared on the street without warning naturally attracted the attention of the local Self-Defense Forces and monks at the first time - they thought You must stop that little girl jumping around as soon as possible and ask her why and how she came here.

Although the two parties met each other, due to the complete language barrier, after some chatting, the little girl obviously lost interest, curled her lips and turned to leave.

In this case, the Ionians would naturally not allow it - in Ionia, most teleportation magic has a lot to do with the spirit world, the shadow world or the dream world. Considering that they have not seen it before, Through that kind of colorful portal, they absolutely cannot let this little girl leave at will.

What if she is a little girl who has awakened her magic and is using the power of the spirit world to travel around unscrupulously... That will bring a considerable burden to the unbalanced spirit world of Ionia!

It's a pity that they can't stop it at all.

After not being interested in these boring guys and realizing that they seemed to know nothing, the little girl rolled her eyes, then stretched out her white hands and snapped her fingers happily.

The next moment, an identical colored portal appeared next to her, and she jumped into it.

Seeing this, the monks immediately wanted to block the space.

However, even when the portal was closed and the little girl turned around to wave goodbye to them, the spatial anchor had already been nailed down, but the other party still teleported away from here very smoothly.

The changing hair color that finally disappeared into the portal seemed to be mocking the monks for their poor academic skills.

This situation was obviously completely beyond the expectations of the Kashulli people. The monks immediately reported the news to the elders and then passed it on to the Balance Sect.

Of course Twilight Eyes got a very vague answer after stargazing.

"Fate has changed, and the wanderer has returned home."

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

The Ionians obviously don't know that this little girl who is always jumping up and down is named Zoe.

An ancient Shuriman, a former Twilight Protoss.

Zoe's previous twilight star spirit was the twilight star spirit who presided over many darkin sealing rituals - and as a price, she was seriously injured in the trapped beast fight between several darkin, and was eventually killed by the twilight star spirit. Give up.

Then, among the many serious believers who longed for the Titan's favor, the Twilight Titan chose the bouncing Zoe as the next Twilight Star.

There are many reasons for choosing this little girl - not only because of her outstanding magic talent, but also because of her relaxed mentality. From the perspective of the Twilight Titan at that time, the disputes in Runeterra were over, and he had enough time to cultivate her. The next Twilight Star is to cultivate a Twilight Star that is more like a human being.

After being given the power of twilight, the new twilight star Zoe has lived up to the expectations of the giant god. She can freely travel between heaven and Runeterra, and with her lively nature, she only needs a little... If you push it, you can go in the direction that the giant god expects.

If nothing unexpected happens, Zoe will become a complete celestial being during the long journey to the celestial realm, and as an agent of Twilight and even all the giants, she will come back to control and influence Runeterra.

However, the plan could not keep up with the changes - with Kalya reappearing and Lux ​​ascending the mountain to bathe in the light of heaven, it seemed a bit too late to slowly cultivate Zoe.

Moreover, because the War Titan and the Sun Titan were tricked by Kalya on the top of Mount Targon, the Twilight Titan had to take action himself. In the end, he chose Jarvan IV to be his next protoss.

As a result, Zoe, who was still wandering in the heaven, was abandoned.

Although the power of the Titan has been deprived, Zoe has been in the heaven for a long time and has long been accustomed to everything here. For her, the biggest impact of not having Twilight's power connection is not that she becomes weaker, but that she becomes weaker. It's me who has become lonely.

Without the voice of the giant god, Zoe, who was wandering alone in the heaven, felt sad for the first time because of her loneliness.

Fortunately, the heavens are not just icy planets.

Just when Zoe was in pain and at a loss, a burst of melodious music played. Following the sound of the music, she saw a traveler wandering in the heaven.

Zoe excitedly wrapped herself around the other person and started chirping.

Unfortunately, it seemed that the other party felt that Zoe's voice was not harmonious enough. After trying to get Zoe to shut up to no avail, the other party chose to take Zoe to find a more talkative chat partner.

So, after wandering in the heaven following the music for who knows how long, Zoe saw a huge creature lying in the heaven.

"Wow, Dalonglong!"

　Zoe makes a grand appearance!
