LOL: I'm a bad prince in Demacia
Chapter 224 2nd Brother, Would You Like To Look At The Current Atmosphere (1 words)
Chapter 224 Second brother, why don't you look at the current atmosphere ([-] words)
hill city.
Lu Qi, who had just completed two rounds of body cultivation, felt quite refreshed.
"Sign in."
After resting, he muttered silently in his heart.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a special sign-in card*1]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the rare fruit - white grape]
Two system sounds sounded in succession, Lu Qi glanced at it, and didn't pay much attention.
It's another special check-in card, but I can look forward to tomorrow's check-in.
Before I knew it, it was already December 20th, and there were only more than [-] days left before the Chinese New Year.
If he wanted to return to the capital a year ago, then another ten days would have to be subtracted from this time.
However, if it is really too late, Lu Qi has nothing to do.
After so many days, the door of sorrow next door has not moved at all, which shows that the group of Noxians are quite tolerant.
After thinking about it, Lu Qi got up and went to the room to fetch a pen and paper, then looked at Katerina, and asked, "What's the name of the manager next door?"
Katerina frowned slightly upon hearing that, "Why are you asking this?"
Lu Qi said: "Of course I want to write to him."
"?" Katerina slowly typed out a question mark.
It’s fine for you to throw flies at people’s heads every day, but now you have to write letters to people?
A person doesn't have to be so cheap!
Although she complained so much in her heart, Katerina still said the name: "Patria Teyle."
Lu Qi nodded, picked up the pen and began to drop it on the paper, without a single pause.
Out of curiosity, Katerina took a closer look, and then walked away speechless after a few seconds.
But in terms of cheapness, she won't accept anyone except Lu Qi.
Soon.
A letter sent from Hill City soon appeared at the gate of sorrow in a conspicuous manner.
"General! This is a letter from Hill City!"
An adjutant, holding a letter in his hand, ran into Patlia's office in a fuss.
There are a lot of herbs in the office, and Patria raised her head when she heard the words, her eyes showed coldness: "A letter from Hill City?"
The spy he planted in Hill City has already been found out by the other party, so how can he send another letter?
"It's a dragon bird knight, thrown from a high altitude."
The adjutant replied, and he handed over the letter.
Patria took it with a frown, but recognized it at a glance, with the royal seal of Demacia on it.
When he saw this letter, he was already a little upset.
At such a time, one can imagine the content of a letter sent specially.
However, by a strange coincidence, he still chose to open the letter and put his eyes on it.
"Dear Patria, a good neighbor I have never met, seeing a letter is like seeing a person, hello.
I heard that the weather has been bad recently, and it often rains in your place. I wonder if you slept soundly.
I slept pretty well anyway.
I ate garlic-flavored steak yesterday. If you are walking down the street and smell garlic by accident, don’t doubt it, I must be thinking of you.
By the way, I will eat some Flammulina velutipes for lunch.If all goes well, it should arrive at your place tomorrow morning.
If you want to eat, please wait early.
I am a little proficient in cooking, if you want to experience different tastes in the future, please write to Hill City.
Your Good Neighbor - Lu Qi Guangdun, written on December [-]th. "
"I miss your mother!"
Patria vigorously tore up the letter in his hand, let out a roar, and his whole body surged, telling his angry mood at the moment.
For some reason, he could imagine at this moment that a man with a mean expression grinned at him.
In an instant, the anger value is directly full!
However, there was nowhere to vent, and Patria was trembling with anger.
The adjutant next to him lowered his head, not daring to speak at all, for fear of offending him.
After tearing up the letter fiercely, Patlia clenched her fists tightly and looked towards the direction of the hill city with anger in her eyes.
At this moment, a foul smell floated in from the window, and some garlic could be vaguely smelled from it.
"vomit!"
Patria's complexion changed, and she felt her stomach churning, and she almost vomited.
After a while, after recovering, Patria's face was ashen, and she silently wrote down the name of Lu Qi Guangshield.
The second prince of Demacia.
Such a moth thing, absolutely must be done by this person!
"Go, inform, let everyone figure out how to fight back against Demacia!"
Patlia, who could no longer bear this kind of grievance, ordered in a cold voice.
He's had enough of other people shitting on his head!
He also thought about following the example of Hill City and throwing the enemy, but this operation is too difficult.
Not to mention the need for flying monsters, but also the opponents of those dragon and bird knights.
Although the former also existed, the manpower he sent out was quickly discovered by those dragon and bird knights, and it was not only useless to use some people.
Xiang was snatched away and thrown back.
special!
"Yes!"
The adjutant took the order and retreated immediately.
However, apart from directly leading troops to kill them, no one thought of a way to fight back against Demacia.
On the other side, Hill City.
Lu Qi, who is in a good mood, is currently holding a fine carving tool in his hand, carefully carving a stone in front of him.
Beside him, there are large and small tools.
These are all processed by the craftsmen in the city these days.
Now that it's processed, it's sent over.
And he has new things to do.
Lu Qi is going to make a puppet, and the standard for making a puppet is naturally extremely high, it is impossible to make one immediately.
The more sophisticated the puppet, the more carefully it must be made.
That is the so-called slow work and meticulous work.
Of course, Lu Qi is not in a hurry for this matter, anyway, he is free every day, just like painting in the capital, making puppets is just like adding a little fun to the ordinary life.
On the contrary, Katerina saw that he finally had interests other than lying there and being a bastard, and there was a little more curiosity in her bright green eyes.
It can be seen that Lu Qi is indeed very patient with what he is doing at this moment.
During this period, he seldom even ordered her to do things.
After finishing the training when she was bored, Katerina watched Lu Qi's production from the sidelines, and her eyes could not help but shifted to his serious side face.
His eyebrows are gently relaxed, his eyelashes are very long, and under the eyelashes are a pair of clear eyes, with a rare seriousness in them, and the corners of his mouth are slightly raised, as if he is in a good mood.
Should I say it or not, if this guy doesn't speak and is serious, he can really feel a little charm.
Katerina admired this guy's profile generously. In Noxus, she rarely encountered something that made her feel seductive.
At this moment, I have to admit that this guy's profile is very attractive.
Time passed imperceptibly.
In the blink of an eye came the next day.
In the past few days, Lu Qi's sleeping state has been very good, and his work and rest are very normal.
Go to bed early every night and wake up early the next day.
Early in the morning, Lu Qi stepped out of the room and after washing up, he saw a figure walking in from the outside, it was Sithlia.
"Your Highness, when we headed to the Gate of Sorrow this morning, a Noxus troop of Wyverns arrived."
After seeing Lu Qi, Sisilia immediately reported: "The number exceeds at least one hundred."
The introduction of Pterosaur flashed in Lu Qi's mind.
A kind of magical beast that also lives on the mountain, it seems that, like the silver pterosaur, there is also part of the dragon's blood in its body.
However, it needs to be thinner, so it is not as good as the silver pterosaur in terms of size, combat power, or flight speed.
Moreover, the character of the wind pterosaur is even more brutal, and it is extremely difficult to tame.
Noxus obviously did not know how to train such an air squad.
Thinking of this, Lu Qi asked: "There are no casualties on our side?"
"No." Sisilia replied: "After we found out, we quickly returned to Hill City."
Lu Qi nodded and thought for a while.
Noxus will take action on this matter, which is naturally within his expectation.
The arrival of this wind pterosaur team has added a lot of difficulty to Sisilia's mission.
For safety reasons, Lu Qi said: "This task can almost be given up."
After several days in succession, he thought the effect should have been achieved.
That being the case, there is no need for Sisilia and the others to take any more risks.
Hearing this, Sisilia took the initiative to ask for orders: "If Your Highness thinks about our safety, then I don't think we need to give up for the time being."
Lu Qi looked into her firm black eyes, waiting for the next article.
"Your Highness can choose to trust us, and we will definitely continue to complete this task." Sithlia said with a serious face: "Moreover, we have the confidence to face those situations that endanger our safety."
Her words proclaimed the honor and pride of Dragon Bird Knight.
The aura revealed from this young girl at this moment is so confident and charming.
The most important thing is that Sisilia and her fellow dragon and bird knights haven't had a good time yet.
Throwing a fly over Noxus's head is such a cool thing, it is not usually encountered.
They are naturally reluctant to give up.
Moreover, it's time to stop, isn't it equivalent to being afraid of that inferior wind pterodactyl team in Noxus?
This is also intolerable to the dragon and bird knights!
Seeing the beautiful light shining in the girl's eyes, Lu Qi said with a smile on his face, "I don't want Demacia to lose any outstanding fighters because of this, so Sislia, please."
Sisilia stood up straight, and seriously promised: "I will not disappoint Your Highness!"
Soon, with a solemn expression on her face, Sislia was ready to inform the dragon and bird knights under her to continue throwing to the enemy.
Lu Qi looked at her back, thinking that this girl might like this task quite a bit.
He lay down on the chair in the courtyard, and said silently in his heart: "Use the special sign-in card to sign in."
[This check-in is changed to a special check-in]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining an intermediate skill upgrade card*2]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a random high-level skill copy card*1]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the 500-year monkey wine]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the equipment: Boots of Speed]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Realm Improvement Card*1]
[The system rewards have been stored in the backpack, please check and collect them yourself]
The sound of several system sounds in succession also made Lu Qi look at the system backpack.
This time there were two rewards, which aroused his interest.
"Use the skill card to upgrade the jump."
He muttered silently in his heart first.
[Successfully used, the continuous jump level has been raised to LV7]
After the system's voice fell, Lu Qi's legs felt a soothing feeling like a clear spring, as if soaking in a hot spring in winter.
It feels extremely comfortable.
The skill of jumping allows Lu Qi to break through the obstacles that humans cannot jump on the air, which is quite a good skill.
The disadvantage of the early stage is that it is too strenuous, and it is easy to consume too much physical strength after a few jumps.
After upgrading to LV7, Lu Qi can jump more times, and jumping is more labor-saving.
Immediately, he looked at the second reward, a random high-level skill duplication card.
After checking the introduction of the system, his eyes lit up immediately, and he felt that this was a good reward.
As the name suggests, the effect of this random high-level skill copy card is that it can randomly learn a high-level skill of that target on any target.
For example, Katerina who came out at this moment.
If Lu Qi's guess is correct, the Shunpo she learned should be a high-level skill - a skill that can move a certain distance at an extremely fast speed, and it is indeed worth learning.
However, the effect of this skill card is random, and it is also possible to learn other skills.
But as long as it's a high-level skill, it won't be bad.
Of course, Lu Qi was not in a hurry to use it, after all, there were so many opportunities to choose.
Even the little golden retriever probably has high-level skills worthy of Lu Qi's learning.
The third reward is the 500-year-old monkey wine. The 100-year-old Lu Qi has tasted it and has already lingered.
At this moment, it has been doubled five times. When he saw it, he couldn't wait to take it out. He took a small sip first, and couldn't help squinting his eyes, savoring it carefully.
After that, I continued to check the fourth reward.
It turned out to be a piece of equipment.
This seems to be the first time Lu Qi signed in to obtain equipment.
Boots of Speed, a very familiar name.
He took out the boots directly, the appearance was different from what he knew, not the orange one, but a type he preferred to wear.
I have to sigh that the system is very considerate.
Lu Qi immediately put on the speed boots, stood up and took a few steps, and suddenly felt a subtle experience from his feet, very light and easy.
The effect of the boots of speed is to increase Lu Qi's speed, but in battle, the increased extra speed will be reduced.
The effect was quite different from what he had imagined.
The speed of this improvement is also quite impressive. In addition, Lu Qi's current speed is not slow at all. With the help of the boots of speed, I am afraid that he will become a flying man.
This reward is still very good.
The last one, the realm promotion card, was used by Lu Qi without hesitation.
Suddenly, a burst of energy burst from the heart and was transmitted to every corner of the body. The whole body gradually became hot, and every cell became warm, dispelling the chill in the body.
This feeling merged with the warmth of monkey wine, sending Lu Qi into a wonderful experience.
When he opened his eyes again from the comfort, his physical strength had improved, and he had reached the middle stage of fearlessness.
Exhaling slowly, Lu Qi blushed and felt a little drunk.
He has a good capacity for alcohol, but in front of the 500-year-old monkey wine, he still only drank a little, and he felt a little drunk.
Katerina came from behind, looking at the jug in Lu Qi's hand and his slightly drunk and enjoying expression, she was also quite speechless.
"Drinking early in the morning, you really deserve it."
This guy would have a few drinks from time to time, and Katerina was already used to it.
But it was the first time I saw him, and he would get himself drunk.
She smelled the aroma of wine floating in the air, and it smelled surprisingly good.
"Enjoy life, regardless of time."
Lu Qi smiled, looked at her, and was not stingy and willing to share: "Would you like to come for two taels?"
Katerina looked at the wine jug he had drunk from her mouth, and did not hesitate, took it out of curiosity and took a sip.
She generally does not drink alcohol, because alcohol will affect the judgment of the brain, thus affecting the accuracy of swinging the knife.
But the capacity for alcohol is not bad.
In order to train her drinking capacity when she was a child, she started drinking at the age of eight, and didn't stop until she couldn't get drunk easily.
At this time, after taking a sip of the wine, she immediately felt a strong aroma of the wine released on her taste buds, and the wine seemed to turn into a clear spring, rampaging wantonly in her body.
This feeling, surprisingly comfortable, is quite wonderful.
Her face turned red all of a sudden, and she couldn't help but feel the aroma of wine remaining between her lips and teeth.
Soon, feeling the wonderful feeling in her body, Katerina realized that the wine in her hand seemed to be extremely precious.
It's not that she hasn't drunk wine before, but after drinking it, the only thing that can give her this feeling is the pot in her hand.
Looking at the wine in her hand, she was startled, and returned it to Lu Qi directly after recovering.
"Is it good to drink?"
Lu Qi took it with a smile.
This Katerina couldn't deny it at all, she nodded and sat down nearby.
She sat there, her face flushed, and as the alcohol surged, her cold eyes soon became a little bit drunk, as if ice had melted, and she looked extraordinarily charming.
Katerina knew clearly that she was drunk.
She couldn't believe that she got drunk so easily.
Seeing this, Lu Qi smiled, not surprised, after all, the 500-year-old monkey wine, no matter how good the drinker is, might not be able to last three glasses.
Katerina noticed Lu Qi's eyes, turned her face away, and was fighting against drunkenness with her own willpower.
But looking at her slightly trembling eyes, it is obvious that she is not far from losing.
Lu Qi didn't drink any more, and only took a sip, about one or two.
Wine is good, but don't be greedy.
Moreover, he didn't want to make his mouth too picky, so that he wouldn't be able to drink this kind of wine in the future, and he wouldn't even be able to drink other wines.
This monkey wine also has the effect of enhancing aptitude, and he plans to incorporate it into the ingredients after returning home.
It would be nice to think about making some dishes that would be even better with wine.
After drinking, the consciousness that should have been sober gradually blurred.
Lu Qi instinctively wanted to close his eyes and lie down.
He never treats himself badly, as soon as this idea came to his mind, he already lay down, changed to a comfortable position, and fell asleep.
Katerina didn't hold on for long. For the first time, she felt that her body, which had been trained to drink well, was so fragile.
The eyes seemed to be fighting, closing and closing, just at this moment, the sound of Sona practicing the piano sounded.
When the eyes closed again, they did not open.
When I woke up again, it was almost noon.
Katerina sat up and looked around, her brain didn't feel the pain after being drunk, but was very clear.
Looking not far away, Lu Qi was lying there, not sure if he was asleep or awake.
The peace in her heart at this moment made Katerina a little distracted, and the numb feeling on her body seemed to have experienced a long-lost relaxation.
She couldn't remember how long she hadn't had such a comfortable sleep.
Usually, she basically sleeps lightly, in order to wake up whenever there is movement.
After all, the environment in which she grew up was always dangerous.
In order to exercise her sense of crisis, her father would send assassins to attack her even when she was asleep.
Although those trainings would not really kill him, if he was not careful for a moment, he would leave a wound that would bleed continuously, very painful, very painful.
After experiencing it once, Katerina never wants to experience it again, and she will not let this happen again.
Since then, she has never had a deep sleep again, not like Lu Qi, who can sleep however she wants.
No wonder this guy always likes to lie down like this.
It turned out that it was really comfortable.
Katerina's eyes flickered, and some of the envy she hadn't noticed, flickered.
After a while, she stood up, adjusted her breathing, and her complexion returned to coolness.
Glancing at Lu Qi again, after staying with this guy for a long time, she almost lost her sense of crisis.
At this moment, soldiers rushed over from outside and reported: "Your Highness, a suspicious person has been found outside the city!"
Lu Qi, who was resting his mind, opened his eyes when he heard this, sat up and asked, "How suspicious?"
The soldier replied: "The eldest prince has already passed. In short, His Highness should also go and have a look."
It felt like he had something to say, but didn't know where to start.
Seeing this, Lu Qi nodded, ready to go and have a look.
There were not many people at home at the moment, so he only let Katerina and Yurna follow.
On the way, the soldier also told about how he met the suspicious person.
Because making the Luqi version of curing agent, you need to go outside the city to collect reeds. According to the speed, make some every day and wait for fermentation. The time is just enough to continue what Luqi started to do.
And that suspicious person was encountered during this process.
The other party came on snow, with a mysterious aura on his body, and a few gems floating with him, stopped in front of a flower, blocking the soldiers' route.
He showed no hostility, but warned the soldiers not to continue, and then shook them back.
As a result, some soldiers stayed behind, and he came back to report to Jarvan IV and Lu Qi.
After a while, Lu Qi and the soldiers arrived at the place where the suspicious person was.
Jarvan IV, Galen and his party were already here, and their eyes were all focused on the long-haired man opposite.
The man has a muscular body, wrapped in a gentle blue robe, some skin is still exposed in the cold winter.
Around the two sapphire shoulder guards, crystal-like gemstones were suspended, exuding a beautiful halo, shining on the man's body, setting off his restrained but not low-key temperament quite extraordinary.
On his left hand, there is a white flower floating, which is very beautiful, and even the roots and soil are protected by a halo.
In the other hand, he held a hammer with a peculiar shape, and the center of the hammer exuded a star-like brilliance.
His appearance is also quite handsome, and with that flowing long hair, he exudes a charm that belongs to him alone.
Seeing this man, Lu Qi narrowed his eyes.
After listening to the soldiers' explanation just now, he already had some guesses, and now the guesses have been confirmed.
This person is the hero, the Shield of Valoran - Taric.
At this time, Tariq was surrounded by some soldiers, led by Jarvan IV and Galen, who looked at him with complicated expressions.
And others who knew him contained anger and contempt!
"Tariq, you dare to come back!"
"I said, if you dare to come back again, I will definitely make you look good!"
"You traitor!"
"You coward who dare not take responsibility for mistakes and responsibilities!"
Some soldiers yelled at him, from the Dauntless Vanguard.
"I never thought of betraying Demacia, it's just... there are too many missions waiting for me to complete."
Facing their accusations, Tariq's face remained calm, but his slightly twinkling eyes still betrayed his inner turmoil at the moment.
A soldier suddenly sneered: "Is this why you neglected your duties and left your protection target and a dozen compatriots behind?"
"I'm sorry about this matter." Tariq said in a low voice, trying to keep his tone as calm as possible, but he could also hear the guilt in his words.
But people don't like him.
Tariq's apology, they don't want to hear anymore.
They are all ashamed of this coward.
Lu Qi listened to their conversation from a distance, and the story of Tariq gradually became clear in his mind.
Tariq used to be a Demacian. He was the same as all Demacians. He was educated in defending his country since he was a child. Focus, selflessness, dedication, and lofty ideals made him shoulder some responsibilities.
It's just that he doesn't want to set the goal of protection only on the country and individuals.
He is unwilling to limit the range of people and things he wants to protect.
Tariq has shown outstanding talent since he was a child, and was given high hopes by his family and the country. Even during that time, he was as famous as Galen.
The young warrior trained hard and excelled in martial arts.
But in the few moments he has free time, he will seek other ways to serve his country.He volunteered to walk with the Illuminators, tending to the sick or helping to rebuild after the flood.
He used his creative talents to help stonemasons and craftsmen erect large and small monuments, depicting the glory of the winged patron saint and the lofty ideas it represents.
His friendly demeanor and warm personality instantly gave him a boost.
It didn't take long before he successfully joined the Fearless Pioneer, and became friends with Galen who had just joined the Fearless Pioneer at that time.
However, as he grows older, Tariq, who has a loose and free personality, gradually goes against Demacia's high discipline and high coordination.
Many of his practices are no longer allowed by discipline, such as running into the forest to look for traces of rare birds and animals.Absent from training and contests, sitting in a tavern listening to the catchy ballads of bards.
Or go out on horseback during a road patrol and watch the silver-grey night descend on the outskirts of the village.
Tariq began to feel uncomfortable, and soon he was regarded as a disobedient soldier and received special attention.
He was then assigned to escort a man out of the country, accompanied by a dozen or so Dreadnoughts.
Tariq was dissatisfied with this mandatory arrangement.
And outside, the worst happened when the squad was attacked during a break.
While the Dreadnoughts fought desperately, fighting their enemies, Taric was absent from his post, rumored to be wandering the corridors of a nearby ruined temple.
Everyone died, including the target he was trying to protect.
There is no doubt that Tariq made a major mistake this time, and he deserves to be severely punished and sent to the executioner's chopping block.
His good friend, Garen Crownguard interceded for him, and Taric got a chance to live, but the "Stone Crown" he was going to face next was also very cruel-according to Demacia's oldest Tradition has it that he will be sent to climb Targon, and almost no one survives the summit.
In order to make up for his mistakes, and to atone for his sins, Tariq boarded a boat going south and headed for Targon.
Just like this, he wanted to protect the heart and upright soul of all things, and was chosen by the protector Protoss, who bestowed him with divine power.
That's right, Tariq at this moment is already a Protoss of Targon.
Since then, he never returned to Demacia, and everyone thought he was dead.
This was also the reason why Galen and Jarvan IV had complicated eyes when they saw him again.
And those friends who once knew Tariq, when they saw him again, always thought that he was a coward who avoided his mistakes and lived by himself.
Lu Qi is not easy to comment, but from the perspective of a Demacian's responsibility, Tarik did indeed do something wrong.
But this is due to his personality. What he wants to protect is not just people, but everything.
It is said that the reason why he went to the ruins of the ancient temple was that he did not want this sacred and gorgeous place, which records history and time, to disappear.
This was what Tariq said at the time, but it fell on the ears of the Demacians and became an excuse for him to avoid his mistakes.
From a human point of view, can a dispensable temple be compared with a dozen human lives?
Lu Qi thinks it can't, he can't do it like Tarek.
But he also knows that everyone can't be forced to be like himself.
The world becomes beautiful precisely because it is composed of all kinds of people with all kinds of whimsical ideas.
In short, Tarek's current scolding is not in vain.
It can be seen from his silence, neither rebuttal nor action, that he always has guilt in his heart.
It's just that people don't need his false guilt. Can guilt bring back the lives of those dozen compatriots?
Galen raised his hand at this time, interrupted the soldiers' angry scolding, looked at Tariq, his former friend, who no longer had the bond, and asked calmly: "Tariq, what are you doing here? .”
"Galen, Your Highness IV, long time no see."
At this moment, Tariq finally had the opportunity to greet these two friends, but facing his greeting, both of them chose to remain silent.
Tariq knew why the two of them treated him so coldly, so he turned his gaze to the floating flower in his hand: "The purpose of my coming here is for it. It is now the last existing flower of this kind in this world." , it could have survived this cold winter, it shouldn't perish in your hands."
"A broken flower, you are still so ridiculous, Tariq!"
A fearless warrior couldn't help but sneered when he heard it, and said sarcastically: "Because of a plant, I turned my sword against my former compatriots, which is in line with my understanding of you."
In order for the soldiers not to continue digging and destroy the foundation of the flower, Tariq released a burst of energy that knocked them back.
Tariq fell silent in the face of the fearless warrior's cynicism.
Galen suppressed the disappointment in his heart, and continued: "Just for this?"
At this time, he had some hopes that Tariq could say something, something else.
He still couldn't look at this good friend who used to sit on the top of the tower, looked at each other and laughed with the attitude of an enemy.
However, Taric really let Garen down.
He nodded and said calmly, "Yes, I have no intention of being your enemy."
The rustiness in the words, even the most stupid people can hear it.
At this time, Lu Qi also came on horseback and got off his horse.
Looking at Tariq at close range, I found that he is not short, about 1.9 meters, and exudes a mysterious aura all over his body, which naturally gives people a sense of inaccessibility and alienation.
This was the first time that Lu Qi saw a living protoss, so his scrutinizing eyes were a bit unscrupulous, and he looked everywhere.
He even stepped forward, got closer, looked at the gems floating around him with some impoliteness, and tsk-tsk: "This should sell for a lot of money, right? Can you deduct one for me? I'll exchange it with you .”
The corner of Tariq's mouth twitched, looked at the strange man in front of him, and silently took a step back.
He didn't mind Lu Qi's impoliteness, because he could feel the difference between Lu Qi and those around him at first sight.
He raised his eyes, looked behind Lu Qi, was slightly taken aback, and then turned his gaze back to Lu Qi: "You are the second prince of Demacia."
"good."
Lu Qi nodded, and stretched out his hand with a harmless smile on his face.
Tarik hesitated for a moment, and the protective cover with flowers flew to his shoulder, then he stretched out his right hand and shook Lu Qi.
For some reason, he could always feel something different in Lu Qi's eyes.
Weird.
But what's wrong?
Can't tell.
Letting go, Galen said coldly: "Now your mission is complete, go away, Tarek."
Lu Qi hadn't seen when Galen's face became so cold.
At this moment, he had the intention of drawing his sword if there was a big disagreement.
"I'll leave."
Tarik paused for a moment when he said this, looked at Galen and Jarvan IV, but was unable to say anything in the end.
To Lu Qi, he gave a Demacia gentleman's salute: "Then take your leave, Your Highness."
Lu Qi was not in a hurry to drive him away, and even had the urge to bring the living protoss back: "Are you leaving now? Or go to the city for a while."
Jiawen IV helped his forehead helplessly, and really wanted to say, second brother, do you want to see the current atmosphere.
If Tariq followed him to Hill City, he would probably be drowned in spittle.
Tarik was also surprised that Lu Qi would invite him, and then shook his head slightly: "No, we will see you again."
There seemed to be some connotation in his words. Before Lu Qi could ask, he had already turned around and left with the flower that he wanted to protect this time.
Looking at his back, Lu Qi sighed slightly, and then unceremoniously used a random skill copy card on him.
【Use successfully】
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a high-level skill -- Perseverance Barrier LV1]
Suddenly, Lu Qi's body seemed to be infused with a subtle power of the starry sky, which felt very strange.
He took a look at the newly copied high-level skills, feeling a little pity in his heart.
Failed to copy the invincible big move of the gemstone.
However, this fortitude barrier is also a very good skill.
W is a gemstone, which can be connected to a friendly army to provide a layer of armor for the opponent and itself.
This improved armor is also quite impressive, at least it is a high-level skill copied from a protoss.
Although Lu Qi will definitely not be as powerful as Tarik when used, but in terms of the armor provided, it is also a very high-quality self-defense skill.
After all, he came here for nothing.
Lu Qi was quite satisfied.
He looked at Tariq's back, a little curious about what he just said.
Why, is there any certainty in that sentence?
"Let's go."
At this moment, Jarvan IV patted him on the shoulder, looked at Tariq's back and sighed, then turned and left.
At this time, Tariq gradually moved away under the eyes of roaring, shameless, and contemptuous eyes.
The flower protected by him gradually floated in front of him.
While looking at the last beauty in this world, he was a little lost in thought.
After many years, he never thought that he would come back again.
He looked around, and saw that the once lush and green fields had been devastated by the war.
What he protects is everything in this world, so he clearly understands why he is fighting.
He can no longer agree with the ideas of Demacia, and can no longer fight for the country and the people.
Looking back at the flower, Tariq unconsciously recalled the disappointment, alienation, and indifference in his best friend's eyes.
Recalling the disdainful eyes of those who once fought side by side.
In my heart, there was still a feeling like being stabbed.
Over the years, he has never forgotten the mistakes he made, and even kept thinking about them and reminding himself.
He sometimes even has nightmares, even with the blessing of the protoss, he still dreams of the tragic situation of those compatriots who died in battle.
However, now that he has become a protoss, he shoulders a more important mission, and as a protoss, he does not know how to make up for his past mistakes.
Protoss is rarely allowed to intervene in mortal affairs under normal circumstances.
Because they have stronger power, they cannot interfere too much with the natural progress of this land.
Sighing without a trace, Tariq's steps became more and more heavy, and his back completely disappeared from people's sight.
Lu Qi and the others mounted their horses and headed back towards the hill city.
Katerina thought back to Tariq just now, and her keen intuition felt that the other party possessed very powerful power.
Even he didn't need to show his aura, just standing there calmly could make her feel a sense of oppression.
On the continent of Valoran, there is such an existence?
She couldn't help tightening her grip on the horse rope.
After walking out of Noxus, she realized that the world seemed to be different from what she knew.
Lu Qi was also thinking about Tarek, and he didn't know much about Protoss.
However, from his standpoint, these powerful guys are quite reliable.
After all, they are present in every crisis in Runeterra.
At least they maintain the harmony and tranquility of this planet with little interference with humans, while preparing for the struggle that is yet to come.
And why did Lu Qi divide his position?
Because, a certain dragon must not agree with him.
(End of this chapter)
hill city.
Lu Qi, who had just completed two rounds of body cultivation, felt quite refreshed.
"Sign in."
After resting, he muttered silently in his heart.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a special sign-in card*1]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the rare fruit - white grape]
Two system sounds sounded in succession, Lu Qi glanced at it, and didn't pay much attention.
It's another special check-in card, but I can look forward to tomorrow's check-in.
Before I knew it, it was already December 20th, and there were only more than [-] days left before the Chinese New Year.
If he wanted to return to the capital a year ago, then another ten days would have to be subtracted from this time.
However, if it is really too late, Lu Qi has nothing to do.
After so many days, the door of sorrow next door has not moved at all, which shows that the group of Noxians are quite tolerant.
After thinking about it, Lu Qi got up and went to the room to fetch a pen and paper, then looked at Katerina, and asked, "What's the name of the manager next door?"
Katerina frowned slightly upon hearing that, "Why are you asking this?"
Lu Qi said: "Of course I want to write to him."
"?" Katerina slowly typed out a question mark.
It’s fine for you to throw flies at people’s heads every day, but now you have to write letters to people?
A person doesn't have to be so cheap!
Although she complained so much in her heart, Katerina still said the name: "Patria Teyle."
Lu Qi nodded, picked up the pen and began to drop it on the paper, without a single pause.
Out of curiosity, Katerina took a closer look, and then walked away speechless after a few seconds.
But in terms of cheapness, she won't accept anyone except Lu Qi.
Soon.
A letter sent from Hill City soon appeared at the gate of sorrow in a conspicuous manner.
"General! This is a letter from Hill City!"
An adjutant, holding a letter in his hand, ran into Patlia's office in a fuss.
There are a lot of herbs in the office, and Patria raised her head when she heard the words, her eyes showed coldness: "A letter from Hill City?"
The spy he planted in Hill City has already been found out by the other party, so how can he send another letter?
"It's a dragon bird knight, thrown from a high altitude."
The adjutant replied, and he handed over the letter.
Patria took it with a frown, but recognized it at a glance, with the royal seal of Demacia on it.
When he saw this letter, he was already a little upset.
At such a time, one can imagine the content of a letter sent specially.
However, by a strange coincidence, he still chose to open the letter and put his eyes on it.
"Dear Patria, a good neighbor I have never met, seeing a letter is like seeing a person, hello.
I heard that the weather has been bad recently, and it often rains in your place. I wonder if you slept soundly.
I slept pretty well anyway.
I ate garlic-flavored steak yesterday. If you are walking down the street and smell garlic by accident, don’t doubt it, I must be thinking of you.
By the way, I will eat some Flammulina velutipes for lunch.If all goes well, it should arrive at your place tomorrow morning.
If you want to eat, please wait early.
I am a little proficient in cooking, if you want to experience different tastes in the future, please write to Hill City.
Your Good Neighbor - Lu Qi Guangdun, written on December [-]th. "
"I miss your mother!"
Patria vigorously tore up the letter in his hand, let out a roar, and his whole body surged, telling his angry mood at the moment.
For some reason, he could imagine at this moment that a man with a mean expression grinned at him.
In an instant, the anger value is directly full!
However, there was nowhere to vent, and Patria was trembling with anger.
The adjutant next to him lowered his head, not daring to speak at all, for fear of offending him.
After tearing up the letter fiercely, Patlia clenched her fists tightly and looked towards the direction of the hill city with anger in her eyes.
At this moment, a foul smell floated in from the window, and some garlic could be vaguely smelled from it.
"vomit!"
Patria's complexion changed, and she felt her stomach churning, and she almost vomited.
After a while, after recovering, Patria's face was ashen, and she silently wrote down the name of Lu Qi Guangshield.
The second prince of Demacia.
Such a moth thing, absolutely must be done by this person!
"Go, inform, let everyone figure out how to fight back against Demacia!"
Patlia, who could no longer bear this kind of grievance, ordered in a cold voice.
He's had enough of other people shitting on his head!
He also thought about following the example of Hill City and throwing the enemy, but this operation is too difficult.
Not to mention the need for flying monsters, but also the opponents of those dragon and bird knights.
Although the former also existed, the manpower he sent out was quickly discovered by those dragon and bird knights, and it was not only useless to use some people.
Xiang was snatched away and thrown back.
special!
"Yes!"
The adjutant took the order and retreated immediately.
However, apart from directly leading troops to kill them, no one thought of a way to fight back against Demacia.
On the other side, Hill City.
Lu Qi, who is in a good mood, is currently holding a fine carving tool in his hand, carefully carving a stone in front of him.
Beside him, there are large and small tools.
These are all processed by the craftsmen in the city these days.
Now that it's processed, it's sent over.
And he has new things to do.
Lu Qi is going to make a puppet, and the standard for making a puppet is naturally extremely high, it is impossible to make one immediately.
The more sophisticated the puppet, the more carefully it must be made.
That is the so-called slow work and meticulous work.
Of course, Lu Qi is not in a hurry for this matter, anyway, he is free every day, just like painting in the capital, making puppets is just like adding a little fun to the ordinary life.
On the contrary, Katerina saw that he finally had interests other than lying there and being a bastard, and there was a little more curiosity in her bright green eyes.
It can be seen that Lu Qi is indeed very patient with what he is doing at this moment.
During this period, he seldom even ordered her to do things.
After finishing the training when she was bored, Katerina watched Lu Qi's production from the sidelines, and her eyes could not help but shifted to his serious side face.
His eyebrows are gently relaxed, his eyelashes are very long, and under the eyelashes are a pair of clear eyes, with a rare seriousness in them, and the corners of his mouth are slightly raised, as if he is in a good mood.
Should I say it or not, if this guy doesn't speak and is serious, he can really feel a little charm.
Katerina admired this guy's profile generously. In Noxus, she rarely encountered something that made her feel seductive.
At this moment, I have to admit that this guy's profile is very attractive.
Time passed imperceptibly.
In the blink of an eye came the next day.
In the past few days, Lu Qi's sleeping state has been very good, and his work and rest are very normal.
Go to bed early every night and wake up early the next day.
Early in the morning, Lu Qi stepped out of the room and after washing up, he saw a figure walking in from the outside, it was Sithlia.
"Your Highness, when we headed to the Gate of Sorrow this morning, a Noxus troop of Wyverns arrived."
After seeing Lu Qi, Sisilia immediately reported: "The number exceeds at least one hundred."
The introduction of Pterosaur flashed in Lu Qi's mind.
A kind of magical beast that also lives on the mountain, it seems that, like the silver pterosaur, there is also part of the dragon's blood in its body.
However, it needs to be thinner, so it is not as good as the silver pterosaur in terms of size, combat power, or flight speed.
Moreover, the character of the wind pterosaur is even more brutal, and it is extremely difficult to tame.
Noxus obviously did not know how to train such an air squad.
Thinking of this, Lu Qi asked: "There are no casualties on our side?"
"No." Sisilia replied: "After we found out, we quickly returned to Hill City."
Lu Qi nodded and thought for a while.
Noxus will take action on this matter, which is naturally within his expectation.
The arrival of this wind pterosaur team has added a lot of difficulty to Sisilia's mission.
For safety reasons, Lu Qi said: "This task can almost be given up."
After several days in succession, he thought the effect should have been achieved.
That being the case, there is no need for Sisilia and the others to take any more risks.
Hearing this, Sisilia took the initiative to ask for orders: "If Your Highness thinks about our safety, then I don't think we need to give up for the time being."
Lu Qi looked into her firm black eyes, waiting for the next article.
"Your Highness can choose to trust us, and we will definitely continue to complete this task." Sithlia said with a serious face: "Moreover, we have the confidence to face those situations that endanger our safety."
Her words proclaimed the honor and pride of Dragon Bird Knight.
The aura revealed from this young girl at this moment is so confident and charming.
The most important thing is that Sisilia and her fellow dragon and bird knights haven't had a good time yet.
Throwing a fly over Noxus's head is such a cool thing, it is not usually encountered.
They are naturally reluctant to give up.
Moreover, it's time to stop, isn't it equivalent to being afraid of that inferior wind pterodactyl team in Noxus?
This is also intolerable to the dragon and bird knights!
Seeing the beautiful light shining in the girl's eyes, Lu Qi said with a smile on his face, "I don't want Demacia to lose any outstanding fighters because of this, so Sislia, please."
Sisilia stood up straight, and seriously promised: "I will not disappoint Your Highness!"
Soon, with a solemn expression on her face, Sislia was ready to inform the dragon and bird knights under her to continue throwing to the enemy.
Lu Qi looked at her back, thinking that this girl might like this task quite a bit.
He lay down on the chair in the courtyard, and said silently in his heart: "Use the special sign-in card to sign in."
[This check-in is changed to a special check-in]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining an intermediate skill upgrade card*2]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a random high-level skill copy card*1]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the 500-year monkey wine]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the equipment: Boots of Speed]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Realm Improvement Card*1]
[The system rewards have been stored in the backpack, please check and collect them yourself]
The sound of several system sounds in succession also made Lu Qi look at the system backpack.
This time there were two rewards, which aroused his interest.
"Use the skill card to upgrade the jump."
He muttered silently in his heart first.
[Successfully used, the continuous jump level has been raised to LV7]
After the system's voice fell, Lu Qi's legs felt a soothing feeling like a clear spring, as if soaking in a hot spring in winter.
It feels extremely comfortable.
The skill of jumping allows Lu Qi to break through the obstacles that humans cannot jump on the air, which is quite a good skill.
The disadvantage of the early stage is that it is too strenuous, and it is easy to consume too much physical strength after a few jumps.
After upgrading to LV7, Lu Qi can jump more times, and jumping is more labor-saving.
Immediately, he looked at the second reward, a random high-level skill duplication card.
After checking the introduction of the system, his eyes lit up immediately, and he felt that this was a good reward.
As the name suggests, the effect of this random high-level skill copy card is that it can randomly learn a high-level skill of that target on any target.
For example, Katerina who came out at this moment.
If Lu Qi's guess is correct, the Shunpo she learned should be a high-level skill - a skill that can move a certain distance at an extremely fast speed, and it is indeed worth learning.
However, the effect of this skill card is random, and it is also possible to learn other skills.
But as long as it's a high-level skill, it won't be bad.
Of course, Lu Qi was not in a hurry to use it, after all, there were so many opportunities to choose.
Even the little golden retriever probably has high-level skills worthy of Lu Qi's learning.
The third reward is the 500-year-old monkey wine. The 100-year-old Lu Qi has tasted it and has already lingered.
At this moment, it has been doubled five times. When he saw it, he couldn't wait to take it out. He took a small sip first, and couldn't help squinting his eyes, savoring it carefully.
After that, I continued to check the fourth reward.
It turned out to be a piece of equipment.
This seems to be the first time Lu Qi signed in to obtain equipment.
Boots of Speed, a very familiar name.
He took out the boots directly, the appearance was different from what he knew, not the orange one, but a type he preferred to wear.
I have to sigh that the system is very considerate.
Lu Qi immediately put on the speed boots, stood up and took a few steps, and suddenly felt a subtle experience from his feet, very light and easy.
The effect of the boots of speed is to increase Lu Qi's speed, but in battle, the increased extra speed will be reduced.
The effect was quite different from what he had imagined.
The speed of this improvement is also quite impressive. In addition, Lu Qi's current speed is not slow at all. With the help of the boots of speed, I am afraid that he will become a flying man.
This reward is still very good.
The last one, the realm promotion card, was used by Lu Qi without hesitation.
Suddenly, a burst of energy burst from the heart and was transmitted to every corner of the body. The whole body gradually became hot, and every cell became warm, dispelling the chill in the body.
This feeling merged with the warmth of monkey wine, sending Lu Qi into a wonderful experience.
When he opened his eyes again from the comfort, his physical strength had improved, and he had reached the middle stage of fearlessness.
Exhaling slowly, Lu Qi blushed and felt a little drunk.
He has a good capacity for alcohol, but in front of the 500-year-old monkey wine, he still only drank a little, and he felt a little drunk.
Katerina came from behind, looking at the jug in Lu Qi's hand and his slightly drunk and enjoying expression, she was also quite speechless.
"Drinking early in the morning, you really deserve it."
This guy would have a few drinks from time to time, and Katerina was already used to it.
But it was the first time I saw him, and he would get himself drunk.
She smelled the aroma of wine floating in the air, and it smelled surprisingly good.
"Enjoy life, regardless of time."
Lu Qi smiled, looked at her, and was not stingy and willing to share: "Would you like to come for two taels?"
Katerina looked at the wine jug he had drunk from her mouth, and did not hesitate, took it out of curiosity and took a sip.
She generally does not drink alcohol, because alcohol will affect the judgment of the brain, thus affecting the accuracy of swinging the knife.
But the capacity for alcohol is not bad.
In order to train her drinking capacity when she was a child, she started drinking at the age of eight, and didn't stop until she couldn't get drunk easily.
At this time, after taking a sip of the wine, she immediately felt a strong aroma of the wine released on her taste buds, and the wine seemed to turn into a clear spring, rampaging wantonly in her body.
This feeling, surprisingly comfortable, is quite wonderful.
Her face turned red all of a sudden, and she couldn't help but feel the aroma of wine remaining between her lips and teeth.
Soon, feeling the wonderful feeling in her body, Katerina realized that the wine in her hand seemed to be extremely precious.
It's not that she hasn't drunk wine before, but after drinking it, the only thing that can give her this feeling is the pot in her hand.
Looking at the wine in her hand, she was startled, and returned it to Lu Qi directly after recovering.
"Is it good to drink?"
Lu Qi took it with a smile.
This Katerina couldn't deny it at all, she nodded and sat down nearby.
She sat there, her face flushed, and as the alcohol surged, her cold eyes soon became a little bit drunk, as if ice had melted, and she looked extraordinarily charming.
Katerina knew clearly that she was drunk.
She couldn't believe that she got drunk so easily.
Seeing this, Lu Qi smiled, not surprised, after all, the 500-year-old monkey wine, no matter how good the drinker is, might not be able to last three glasses.
Katerina noticed Lu Qi's eyes, turned her face away, and was fighting against drunkenness with her own willpower.
But looking at her slightly trembling eyes, it is obvious that she is not far from losing.
Lu Qi didn't drink any more, and only took a sip, about one or two.
Wine is good, but don't be greedy.
Moreover, he didn't want to make his mouth too picky, so that he wouldn't be able to drink this kind of wine in the future, and he wouldn't even be able to drink other wines.
This monkey wine also has the effect of enhancing aptitude, and he plans to incorporate it into the ingredients after returning home.
It would be nice to think about making some dishes that would be even better with wine.
After drinking, the consciousness that should have been sober gradually blurred.
Lu Qi instinctively wanted to close his eyes and lie down.
He never treats himself badly, as soon as this idea came to his mind, he already lay down, changed to a comfortable position, and fell asleep.
Katerina didn't hold on for long. For the first time, she felt that her body, which had been trained to drink well, was so fragile.
The eyes seemed to be fighting, closing and closing, just at this moment, the sound of Sona practicing the piano sounded.
When the eyes closed again, they did not open.
When I woke up again, it was almost noon.
Katerina sat up and looked around, her brain didn't feel the pain after being drunk, but was very clear.
Looking not far away, Lu Qi was lying there, not sure if he was asleep or awake.
The peace in her heart at this moment made Katerina a little distracted, and the numb feeling on her body seemed to have experienced a long-lost relaxation.
She couldn't remember how long she hadn't had such a comfortable sleep.
Usually, she basically sleeps lightly, in order to wake up whenever there is movement.
After all, the environment in which she grew up was always dangerous.
In order to exercise her sense of crisis, her father would send assassins to attack her even when she was asleep.
Although those trainings would not really kill him, if he was not careful for a moment, he would leave a wound that would bleed continuously, very painful, very painful.
After experiencing it once, Katerina never wants to experience it again, and she will not let this happen again.
Since then, she has never had a deep sleep again, not like Lu Qi, who can sleep however she wants.
No wonder this guy always likes to lie down like this.
It turned out that it was really comfortable.
Katerina's eyes flickered, and some of the envy she hadn't noticed, flickered.
After a while, she stood up, adjusted her breathing, and her complexion returned to coolness.
Glancing at Lu Qi again, after staying with this guy for a long time, she almost lost her sense of crisis.
At this moment, soldiers rushed over from outside and reported: "Your Highness, a suspicious person has been found outside the city!"
Lu Qi, who was resting his mind, opened his eyes when he heard this, sat up and asked, "How suspicious?"
The soldier replied: "The eldest prince has already passed. In short, His Highness should also go and have a look."
It felt like he had something to say, but didn't know where to start.
Seeing this, Lu Qi nodded, ready to go and have a look.
There were not many people at home at the moment, so he only let Katerina and Yurna follow.
On the way, the soldier also told about how he met the suspicious person.
Because making the Luqi version of curing agent, you need to go outside the city to collect reeds. According to the speed, make some every day and wait for fermentation. The time is just enough to continue what Luqi started to do.
And that suspicious person was encountered during this process.
The other party came on snow, with a mysterious aura on his body, and a few gems floating with him, stopped in front of a flower, blocking the soldiers' route.
He showed no hostility, but warned the soldiers not to continue, and then shook them back.
As a result, some soldiers stayed behind, and he came back to report to Jarvan IV and Lu Qi.
After a while, Lu Qi and the soldiers arrived at the place where the suspicious person was.
Jarvan IV, Galen and his party were already here, and their eyes were all focused on the long-haired man opposite.
The man has a muscular body, wrapped in a gentle blue robe, some skin is still exposed in the cold winter.
Around the two sapphire shoulder guards, crystal-like gemstones were suspended, exuding a beautiful halo, shining on the man's body, setting off his restrained but not low-key temperament quite extraordinary.
On his left hand, there is a white flower floating, which is very beautiful, and even the roots and soil are protected by a halo.
In the other hand, he held a hammer with a peculiar shape, and the center of the hammer exuded a star-like brilliance.
His appearance is also quite handsome, and with that flowing long hair, he exudes a charm that belongs to him alone.
Seeing this man, Lu Qi narrowed his eyes.
After listening to the soldiers' explanation just now, he already had some guesses, and now the guesses have been confirmed.
This person is the hero, the Shield of Valoran - Taric.
At this time, Tariq was surrounded by some soldiers, led by Jarvan IV and Galen, who looked at him with complicated expressions.
And others who knew him contained anger and contempt!
"Tariq, you dare to come back!"
"I said, if you dare to come back again, I will definitely make you look good!"
"You traitor!"
"You coward who dare not take responsibility for mistakes and responsibilities!"
Some soldiers yelled at him, from the Dauntless Vanguard.
"I never thought of betraying Demacia, it's just... there are too many missions waiting for me to complete."
Facing their accusations, Tariq's face remained calm, but his slightly twinkling eyes still betrayed his inner turmoil at the moment.
A soldier suddenly sneered: "Is this why you neglected your duties and left your protection target and a dozen compatriots behind?"
"I'm sorry about this matter." Tariq said in a low voice, trying to keep his tone as calm as possible, but he could also hear the guilt in his words.
But people don't like him.
Tariq's apology, they don't want to hear anymore.
They are all ashamed of this coward.
Lu Qi listened to their conversation from a distance, and the story of Tariq gradually became clear in his mind.
Tariq used to be a Demacian. He was the same as all Demacians. He was educated in defending his country since he was a child. Focus, selflessness, dedication, and lofty ideals made him shoulder some responsibilities.
It's just that he doesn't want to set the goal of protection only on the country and individuals.
He is unwilling to limit the range of people and things he wants to protect.
Tariq has shown outstanding talent since he was a child, and was given high hopes by his family and the country. Even during that time, he was as famous as Galen.
The young warrior trained hard and excelled in martial arts.
But in the few moments he has free time, he will seek other ways to serve his country.He volunteered to walk with the Illuminators, tending to the sick or helping to rebuild after the flood.
He used his creative talents to help stonemasons and craftsmen erect large and small monuments, depicting the glory of the winged patron saint and the lofty ideas it represents.
His friendly demeanor and warm personality instantly gave him a boost.
It didn't take long before he successfully joined the Fearless Pioneer, and became friends with Galen who had just joined the Fearless Pioneer at that time.
However, as he grows older, Tariq, who has a loose and free personality, gradually goes against Demacia's high discipline and high coordination.
Many of his practices are no longer allowed by discipline, such as running into the forest to look for traces of rare birds and animals.Absent from training and contests, sitting in a tavern listening to the catchy ballads of bards.
Or go out on horseback during a road patrol and watch the silver-grey night descend on the outskirts of the village.
Tariq began to feel uncomfortable, and soon he was regarded as a disobedient soldier and received special attention.
He was then assigned to escort a man out of the country, accompanied by a dozen or so Dreadnoughts.
Tariq was dissatisfied with this mandatory arrangement.
And outside, the worst happened when the squad was attacked during a break.
While the Dreadnoughts fought desperately, fighting their enemies, Taric was absent from his post, rumored to be wandering the corridors of a nearby ruined temple.
Everyone died, including the target he was trying to protect.
There is no doubt that Tariq made a major mistake this time, and he deserves to be severely punished and sent to the executioner's chopping block.
His good friend, Garen Crownguard interceded for him, and Taric got a chance to live, but the "Stone Crown" he was going to face next was also very cruel-according to Demacia's oldest Tradition has it that he will be sent to climb Targon, and almost no one survives the summit.
In order to make up for his mistakes, and to atone for his sins, Tariq boarded a boat going south and headed for Targon.
Just like this, he wanted to protect the heart and upright soul of all things, and was chosen by the protector Protoss, who bestowed him with divine power.
That's right, Tariq at this moment is already a Protoss of Targon.
Since then, he never returned to Demacia, and everyone thought he was dead.
This was also the reason why Galen and Jarvan IV had complicated eyes when they saw him again.
And those friends who once knew Tariq, when they saw him again, always thought that he was a coward who avoided his mistakes and lived by himself.
Lu Qi is not easy to comment, but from the perspective of a Demacian's responsibility, Tarik did indeed do something wrong.
But this is due to his personality. What he wants to protect is not just people, but everything.
It is said that the reason why he went to the ruins of the ancient temple was that he did not want this sacred and gorgeous place, which records history and time, to disappear.
This was what Tariq said at the time, but it fell on the ears of the Demacians and became an excuse for him to avoid his mistakes.
From a human point of view, can a dispensable temple be compared with a dozen human lives?
Lu Qi thinks it can't, he can't do it like Tarek.
But he also knows that everyone can't be forced to be like himself.
The world becomes beautiful precisely because it is composed of all kinds of people with all kinds of whimsical ideas.
In short, Tarek's current scolding is not in vain.
It can be seen from his silence, neither rebuttal nor action, that he always has guilt in his heart.
It's just that people don't need his false guilt. Can guilt bring back the lives of those dozen compatriots?
Galen raised his hand at this time, interrupted the soldiers' angry scolding, looked at Tariq, his former friend, who no longer had the bond, and asked calmly: "Tariq, what are you doing here? .”
"Galen, Your Highness IV, long time no see."
At this moment, Tariq finally had the opportunity to greet these two friends, but facing his greeting, both of them chose to remain silent.
Tariq knew why the two of them treated him so coldly, so he turned his gaze to the floating flower in his hand: "The purpose of my coming here is for it. It is now the last existing flower of this kind in this world." , it could have survived this cold winter, it shouldn't perish in your hands."
"A broken flower, you are still so ridiculous, Tariq!"
A fearless warrior couldn't help but sneered when he heard it, and said sarcastically: "Because of a plant, I turned my sword against my former compatriots, which is in line with my understanding of you."
In order for the soldiers not to continue digging and destroy the foundation of the flower, Tariq released a burst of energy that knocked them back.
Tariq fell silent in the face of the fearless warrior's cynicism.
Galen suppressed the disappointment in his heart, and continued: "Just for this?"
At this time, he had some hopes that Tariq could say something, something else.
He still couldn't look at this good friend who used to sit on the top of the tower, looked at each other and laughed with the attitude of an enemy.
However, Taric really let Garen down.
He nodded and said calmly, "Yes, I have no intention of being your enemy."
The rustiness in the words, even the most stupid people can hear it.
At this time, Lu Qi also came on horseback and got off his horse.
Looking at Tariq at close range, I found that he is not short, about 1.9 meters, and exudes a mysterious aura all over his body, which naturally gives people a sense of inaccessibility and alienation.
This was the first time that Lu Qi saw a living protoss, so his scrutinizing eyes were a bit unscrupulous, and he looked everywhere.
He even stepped forward, got closer, looked at the gems floating around him with some impoliteness, and tsk-tsk: "This should sell for a lot of money, right? Can you deduct one for me? I'll exchange it with you .”
The corner of Tariq's mouth twitched, looked at the strange man in front of him, and silently took a step back.
He didn't mind Lu Qi's impoliteness, because he could feel the difference between Lu Qi and those around him at first sight.
He raised his eyes, looked behind Lu Qi, was slightly taken aback, and then turned his gaze back to Lu Qi: "You are the second prince of Demacia."
"good."
Lu Qi nodded, and stretched out his hand with a harmless smile on his face.
Tarik hesitated for a moment, and the protective cover with flowers flew to his shoulder, then he stretched out his right hand and shook Lu Qi.
For some reason, he could always feel something different in Lu Qi's eyes.
Weird.
But what's wrong?
Can't tell.
Letting go, Galen said coldly: "Now your mission is complete, go away, Tarek."
Lu Qi hadn't seen when Galen's face became so cold.
At this moment, he had the intention of drawing his sword if there was a big disagreement.
"I'll leave."
Tarik paused for a moment when he said this, looked at Galen and Jarvan IV, but was unable to say anything in the end.
To Lu Qi, he gave a Demacia gentleman's salute: "Then take your leave, Your Highness."
Lu Qi was not in a hurry to drive him away, and even had the urge to bring the living protoss back: "Are you leaving now? Or go to the city for a while."
Jiawen IV helped his forehead helplessly, and really wanted to say, second brother, do you want to see the current atmosphere.
If Tariq followed him to Hill City, he would probably be drowned in spittle.
Tarik was also surprised that Lu Qi would invite him, and then shook his head slightly: "No, we will see you again."
There seemed to be some connotation in his words. Before Lu Qi could ask, he had already turned around and left with the flower that he wanted to protect this time.
Looking at his back, Lu Qi sighed slightly, and then unceremoniously used a random skill copy card on him.
【Use successfully】
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a high-level skill -- Perseverance Barrier LV1]
Suddenly, Lu Qi's body seemed to be infused with a subtle power of the starry sky, which felt very strange.
He took a look at the newly copied high-level skills, feeling a little pity in his heart.
Failed to copy the invincible big move of the gemstone.
However, this fortitude barrier is also a very good skill.
W is a gemstone, which can be connected to a friendly army to provide a layer of armor for the opponent and itself.
This improved armor is also quite impressive, at least it is a high-level skill copied from a protoss.
Although Lu Qi will definitely not be as powerful as Tarik when used, but in terms of the armor provided, it is also a very high-quality self-defense skill.
After all, he came here for nothing.
Lu Qi was quite satisfied.
He looked at Tariq's back, a little curious about what he just said.
Why, is there any certainty in that sentence?
"Let's go."
At this moment, Jarvan IV patted him on the shoulder, looked at Tariq's back and sighed, then turned and left.
At this time, Tariq gradually moved away under the eyes of roaring, shameless, and contemptuous eyes.
The flower protected by him gradually floated in front of him.
While looking at the last beauty in this world, he was a little lost in thought.
After many years, he never thought that he would come back again.
He looked around, and saw that the once lush and green fields had been devastated by the war.
What he protects is everything in this world, so he clearly understands why he is fighting.
He can no longer agree with the ideas of Demacia, and can no longer fight for the country and the people.
Looking back at the flower, Tariq unconsciously recalled the disappointment, alienation, and indifference in his best friend's eyes.
Recalling the disdainful eyes of those who once fought side by side.
In my heart, there was still a feeling like being stabbed.
Over the years, he has never forgotten the mistakes he made, and even kept thinking about them and reminding himself.
He sometimes even has nightmares, even with the blessing of the protoss, he still dreams of the tragic situation of those compatriots who died in battle.
However, now that he has become a protoss, he shoulders a more important mission, and as a protoss, he does not know how to make up for his past mistakes.
Protoss is rarely allowed to intervene in mortal affairs under normal circumstances.
Because they have stronger power, they cannot interfere too much with the natural progress of this land.
Sighing without a trace, Tariq's steps became more and more heavy, and his back completely disappeared from people's sight.
Lu Qi and the others mounted their horses and headed back towards the hill city.
Katerina thought back to Tariq just now, and her keen intuition felt that the other party possessed very powerful power.
Even he didn't need to show his aura, just standing there calmly could make her feel a sense of oppression.
On the continent of Valoran, there is such an existence?
She couldn't help tightening her grip on the horse rope.
After walking out of Noxus, she realized that the world seemed to be different from what she knew.
Lu Qi was also thinking about Tarek, and he didn't know much about Protoss.
However, from his standpoint, these powerful guys are quite reliable.
After all, they are present in every crisis in Runeterra.
At least they maintain the harmony and tranquility of this planet with little interference with humans, while preparing for the struggle that is yet to come.
And why did Lu Qi divide his position?
Because, a certain dragon must not agree with him.
