Two Cities, I build mecha in Picheng

Chapter 336 Missing, a silent uninhabited village

"What?!" Now, it was Jarvan IV's turn to be shocked, "What you said is true?"

"I have done relevant research, although not much." Li Lin nodded heavily, "But the clues revealed between the lines in Ander's words all point to this fearful demon."

Jarvan IV rubbed his bearded chin with a serious and hesitant expression, "In our Demacia legends, there is indeed a record of a fear demon, but it has disappeared for hundreds of years and has never appeared again.

"Besides, most of the legends of this demon are only passed down orally, and even the royal library of Dawn Castle has only a few descriptions, and even its real name is not recorded.

"If you want me to say, this legend, or all the legends of demons, may be compiled by people based on a certain person or thing..."

"No, Your Highness, demons are real. I have confronted demons before."

Facing Jarvan IV's stunned expression, the nano armor on Li Lin's hand transformed, projecting the appearance of the Eternal Nightmare Nocturne in the air.

"People call it Nocturne, but its real name is 'Nightmare', an offshoot of the 'fear' emotion, a demon that spreads nightmares to people and consumes their fear, born from the shadows at the end of Rune Wars Magic War."

"So it's called a nightmare..." Jarvan IV gasped, "I've seen related records about it, and it's as rare as fear. It only shows that it was born during the Rune Wars period."

"Because the devil's information is intentionally erased, people must forget about them, so as not to bring disaster to themselves."

Li Lin withdrew his hand and said very solemnly: "For normal demons, you only need to call out their real names to expose their weaknesses, but to defeat them, you still need good strength, and being able to use magic is the best choice.

"At that time, Nocturne was eyeing a professor at our Piltover University. Our principal Heimerdinger used a device he had invented that could allow people to travel to the spiritual realm, which made me defeat him in the spiritual realm. it."

"You actually... confronted and repelled the demon?"

Jarvan IV no longer knew what words to use to describe his mood.

"It's just an ordinary demon." Li Lin smiled bitterly and shook his head. "As long as you know their real names, they are nothing to worry about... But this ancient demon is different, not to mention it is the original demon."

Even if you move Galio here, you may not be able to defeat it...

Li Lin added in his heart.

Jarvan IV turned his back to Li Lin, put his hands on the table, lost in thought.

There was a long silence in the room.

After more than five minutes, he finally said: "What if... Ander is not facing a demon, but an evil wizard who is good at using necromancy?"

Damn!

Li Lin couldn't help feeling anxious, "Your Highness!"

"Since Ander has come to ask me for help, as a prince and the heir apparent of Demacia, I have to help my subjects if they are in trouble...

"Besides, it's not only threatening the lives of Ander's wife and daughter, but also the hundreds of people in Hengfeng Village."

Jarvan IV turned around and looked at Li Lin, with a helpless expression on his face.

"You underestimated the devil too much! Let alone mentioning the real name of the original devil is useless at all, even if it is useful, I have no confidence that I can defeat it."

"This is indeed a problem, but I didn't say we're going to fight this demon, did I?" Jarvan IV chuckled, "Don't you have a drone that can be invisible?"

Li Lin probably guessed what he wanted to express, "Do you want to use my drone to investigate the situation, and if you find that it is really a demon, organize the evacuation of the villagers in Hengfeng Village?"

"That's right, my duty doesn't allow me to give up on them." Jarvan IV nodded, and immediately looked at him with pleading eyes, "So...can you please help me?"

……

……

In desperation, Li Lin finally agreed to Jarvan IV's request.

Although this is a very "death" behavior, Jiawen IV has made up his mind, and it seems that he must go to Hengfeng Village to check the situation, so he can only accompany him.

As the orthodox bloodline of the royal family of Demacia, Jarvan IV cared about his subjects, which was also the basis for the establishment of the regime of the Light Shield family, and the kings of all dynasties knew this very well.

And according to the original world line, it is impossible for Jarvan IV to communicate with Fiddlesticks.

After all, as a defeated army, it was also attacked by the dragon Iva, and it was difficult to protect itself. Naturally, it was impossible for Ander to ask him for help.

It is very likely that Ander will be swallowed by Fiddlesticks in the subsequent process of finding his wife and daughter.

But under the influence of the butterfly effect, two characters who didn't want to do it had an intersection.

The changes made must bear the consequences, and Li Lin must help Jarvan IV overcome this new difficulty.

But Li Lin also has something to rely on.

Zoe gave him a marble condensed by magic power before, but of course it wasn't the star that was stolen from the Dragon King of Forging Stars and made into marbles for playing games.

At critical moments, Li Lin can use this "magic marble" to summon Zoe, who is now unknown.

It's just that this little girl is very unreliable, and he knows very well that he cannot completely rely on her.

At this time, Morgana told him that being able to summon her black feathers in Demacia was very important.

If the drone can also attract Fiddlesticks, it would be best to call Zoe.

The previous Twilight Protoss Maisha stole its Demon Key from Fiddlesticks. Even if the human flesh and blood cannot exert all the power of the Protoss, Zoe can at least repel it, no matter what You can also escape with everyone.

If Zoe doesn't come, Morgana, who has half the blessing power of the protoss, will be a bit uneasy about Fiddlesticks, but it's much better than facing them all mortals.

Jarvan IV and Barrett originally agreed to return to Xiongdu in three days.

But they agreed to Ander's request, and the matter could not be delayed. They immediately led 6 fearless vanguard shields and a group of guards, rode fast horses and set off that night.

Although Ander walked to Renwall after more than ten days, his wife and daughter could be sentenced to death during this period...

Renwall is hundreds of kilometers away from Hengfeng Village, and the group of people rushed almost all the time, and arrived at the bank of Tranquil Lake on the evening of the fifth day.

Hengfeng Village is on the other side of the river.

"Let's set up camp here." Barrett suggested, "It's just that our boat stopped at Tobysia when we came, and crossing the river is a problem."

"Ander should have a solution, right?" Jarvan IV looked around, "By the way, what about the Andel people?"

Li Lin, who was standing by the river and looking at the other side, released several nano-reconnaissance drones, heard Jarvan IV's call, and hurried back to his side.

"Is Ander missing?" Li Lin asked.

At this time, Jarvan IV looked displeased, and he was reprimanding the soldiers in charge of guarding Ander, "Such a big man, can this let him slip away?"

"I'm very sorry! This is my dereliction of duty!" The soldier lowered his face in shame, "I am willing to accept the punishment."

"Forget it, no one would have expected Ander to sneak away." Barrett intentionally defended the negligent soldier, "Besides, we marched in a hurry this time, and everyone is tired, so it's just a matter of not making an exception. "

Jarvan IV stared at the soldiers for a few seconds, then waved his hands helplessly, "Well... the first thing to delay is to investigate the matter of Hengfeng Village."

His gaze turned to Li Lin, "Is your drone arranged?"

"Okay, Your Highness."

Li Lin immediately projected a holographic image of the drone to everyone.

After living for decades, Barrett, who saw this kind of scene for the first time, couldn't help but stroked his gray beard, and couldn't help sighing: "Piltover still has this kind of technology... I have advised your father to ban it a long time ago. Treaties that prohibit official trade, and introduce more advanced technologies."

"But the members of the Council of Hard Shield who are in charge of foreign affairs disagree." Jarvan IV snorted softly.

"It will change, everything will change." Barrett knew that the prince had always been dissatisfied with the big nobles who were in charge of the kingdom's privileges, so he comforted him.

While they were talking, the drones had already found the exact location of Hengfeng Village, each of them entered the state of "optical camouflage" and spread out.

Among them, a drone entered the village and discovered an amazing scene.

It was clearly evening dinner time, but the village was extremely quiet, without the slightest trace of life.

"...What about the people in the village?"
