Two Cities, I build mecha in Picheng

In the middle of the Warden's Sea surrounded by danger, the islands where many provinces are located together form a land called "the land of the first birth", and this is the outstanding Ionia.

But with the Noxus invasion a few years ago, the peace here was completely broken.

The balance between the material realm and the spiritual realm is broken, the land no longer protects the people, and the harmonious coexistence between man and the spirit of nature is no longer there.

However, problems from the land itself are not the real culprits for the Ionians' troubles.

When Irelia of the Zan family rose up in the Battle of Navoli, she led the Navoli Resistance Army to counterattack Noxus painfully and won the final victory.

Noxus retreated under the new Grand Master, and Irelia broke away from the leadership of the Navoli Resistance.

All of a sudden, the leader was lost, and the leaderless warriors didn't know what the fate of Ionia would be. Until an ambitious person reorganized the Navoli Resistance Army behind the scenes, established the Navoli Brotherhood, and joined forces with the Shadow Stream sect. cooperating.

Li Lin stood in the northeast of Navoli Province, facing the mountains where the glaciers melted and flowed. The former Balance Sect had been taken over by Shadow Stream.

[Except for some ports on the southern coast and Felor Island, Navoli Province is now completely under the control of the Navoli Brotherhood and Shadow Stream. 】

[It seems that due to the influence of the expansion of the two cities, the Navoli Brotherhood and the Shadow Stream Sect have made many moves recently. 】

[According to their latest trends, their next target will be Zhiyun Province. 】

It's so many years early, and I don't know how deeply Kushuo has been eroded by the Tears of Shadows.

Li Lin thought secretly.

Tears of Shadow is the source of Zed's control of shadow magic. It originated from the War of Shadows at the end of the Rune Wars 1000 years ago, and it was the same period as the Eternal Nightmare Nocturne.

Master Kushuo is the former Eye of Twilight of the Balance Sect and the father of Shen, the current leader.

After several years of betrayal by his favorite student Jie, Ku explained that he was "killed" on the surface, but in fact he retreated behind the scenes to take charge of the overall situation. The disciple who changed his name to Jie was at the front and took all the "black pot".

Li Lin didn't know when this old guy was eroded by Tears of Shadows. Anyway, based on his personal impression, he didn't have a good impression of this old guy.

With thoughts in his mind, he quickly skipped the steps leading to the top of the mountain. In just one minute, he arrived at a temple halfway up the mountain.

But before he shouted to show his purpose, countless three-bladed round darts shot from all directions.

Li Lin had no choice but to prop up the defensive barrier, and as the blades collided with the blue-white energy barrier, they turned into black smoke and dissipated without leaving any traces.

Seeing that one attack didn't work, several black shadows whose faces could not be seen clearly split from Li Lin's own shadow, and suddenly emerged from the ground.

Li Lin frowned, and didn't give them a chance to attack at all. The Infinity Warframe scattered a circle of plasma current, instantly dissipating all the magic around him.

"I am Li Lin, the speaker of Piltover, and I want to talk to Jie." He paused, "A week ago, I sent my subordinates to deliver the letter."

The voice faded away, and there was a long silence in the air.

After a while, the mountain gate opened slowly, and two shadows reappeared in front of the gate, as if rising from black smoke, and made a "please" gesture to Li Lin.

"The Lord of Shadow Stream welcomes you." One of the shadows said in a hoarse voice.

Li Lin flew up the steps unceremoniously, and directly entered the huge front yard of the Shadow Stream Sect.

The scanning system of the battle armor detected the aura of no less than 20 strangers, of which at least four or five were powerful, hiding behind the eaves and various bunkers.

"You don't need to hide, I can even subdue the shadow demon Nocturne, and your shadow magic can't hide from me."

As soon as the words fell, a shadow emerged from the dark room, and quickly stood in front of Li Lin.

In the next second, the shadow clone changed shape and position, and in the blink of an eye, a burly man wearing light armor, a red robe and a cloak, and a ferocious magic mask appeared in his field of vision.

On the man's back were two shurikens similar to the three-bladed darts that attacked Li Lin just now, and his arms were wearing silver gauntlets. The wrist blade scabbard on the back of the hand seemed to be able to pop out in the next second and cut the throat instantly. hidden weapon.

Li Lin couldn't be more familiar with this outfit - Lord of Shadow Stream, Jie.

"Li Lin of Piltover, since you have given up your identity as an Ionian and chose another city-state, why did you come back?"

Jie's tone was not friendly, even though Li Lin had already dispatched mechanical engineers to deliver a letter, announcing his arrival in advance.

He had always despised those who neglected their posts in Ionia, and the vastaya who vacillated.

Li Lin, a "deserter" who once abandoned his hometown in order to escape the war, is even more thorn in his eyes.

If it wasn't for the probing by the members of the ninja group under him just now, he found that he couldn't beat the man in the strange armor in front of him, who looked like the rumored Hextech, Jie wouldn't have come forward to talk to Li Lin.

"Fleeing home was not my intention, and if I hadn't taken a boat to Piltover 7 years ago, I wouldn't be here today.

"The Noxus invasion has begun, and the peace of the First Land has been broken. I am sure you and I are very aware of the actions of many provincial councils in Ionia."

Giving up resistance in order to maintain that unnecessary balance...

Jie clenched his fist secretly.

The war lasted for three full years before he realized that this non-resistance approach was a big mistake.

Although he broke with the Equilibrium Sect in order to gather vitality to fight against Noxus, but what was lost in the First Land cannot come back after all.

Seeing that Jie knew he was right and did not speak, Li Lin continued: "I think you should know my idea of ​​creating the League of Legends, the invasion of Noxus is nothing, and there is a greater threat to our future.

"Today, my personal visit is nothing more than to give you the respect you deserve. When the League of Legends is established, we must abandon the past and build the last front of defense for mankind."

A red light appeared on the eyes of Jie's mask, "Why should I trust you?"

"You have to believe it."

Li Lin swept his eyes wide and focused on the statue on the side of the yard that he had just seen when he entered the door.

He didn't even raise his hand, the armor on the back of the Infinity Warframe unfolded, and fired a plasma cannonball at the statue several meters high.

Before Jie and his Shadow Stream congregation could react, the statue was hit by the blue-white energy ball, and it was immediately torn apart, turning into countless tiny pieces, and the smoke and dust dispersed.

Jie has not yet broken with Master Kushuo, and killed him with his own hands.

For him now, he must be restrained with more forceful means.

"what have you done?"

Jie Yingsheng looked in the direction of the statue, raised his hands, and the wrist blade popped out with a "clang", with a fierce look in his eyes.

It wasn't just him, the members of the Yingliu Sect who had been hiding in the shadows escaped into the shadows and came out together, surrounding Li Lin in the center.

Such a move just now is a kind of provocative behavior to them.

However, just after they got a firm foothold, all metal weapons such as short swords, daggers, kunai, darts, etc. were all detached from their bodies.

And those who wore light armor couldn't even move their bodies, and were completely pulled by the magnetic force.

Just when everyone was in a hurry and didn't know what happened, all these weapons gathered on top of Li Lin's head.

"What did you do?!" Zed raised his voice and asked again to hide his nervousness about losing many brothers.

"Your weapons are useless to me." Li Lin said indifferently, "The reason why I came to you is nothing more than Yingliu's contribution to Ionia, but you seem to have gone astray."

He paused for a while, then smiled lightly: "Ku said, he has been corrupted by the Tears of Shadows, and everything he did to Ionia was to satisfy his sickly and twisted desire to control, thanks to you trusting him so much."

When these words came out, it was like falling into an icehouse. The expression under the mask was full of panic, and he opened his mouth wide, but he couldn't say a word.

How did he know that Ku Shuo was still alive? !
"Think carefully, Jie."

Before his figure was completely covered by blue-white light and disappeared, Li Lin left a last sentence: "In three weeks, the first League of Legends conference will be held at the War College in Piltover."
