Chapter 61 Danger from the Deep Desert

Uzeris - the head office of the Glorious Merchant Corps.

During this period of time, the Glowing Merchant Corps has opened two new branches in Uzeris. This situation can happen, of course, because when the people in a place have no economic source, and suddenly there is a merchant corps backed by a powerful country and with supplies that the locals urgently need, then all the people in that place will naturally work for this merchant corps.

A bit like a multinational business giant?
At present, the sky of Uzeris has become the appearance of the Glorious Merchants Group, but from the beginning, Rowan really did not intend to do so.
All we can say is that he underestimated the potential value of Shurima and the current situation of the local people.

Most people in Shurima do not have the word patriotism in their hearts. The country is in chaos and wars are frequent. Many cities along the coast have changed their names to Noxus or have established themselves as city-states.

Therefore, when they are hungry, the Shurimans really don’t care whether their surnames are Shurima or Dema.

As it is now, the locals have quickly accepted the change in their identity.

Of course, there are still some old people who tell the glorious history of Shurima. Unlike young people, they have their own beliefs in their hearts.

Prilofen was obviously not a religious person. He walked into the main store of the Glorious Merchants Group, took out a bag of gold coins and some antiques with a smile, put them on the table and said loudly, "I want two boxes of water, Miss Sivir."

"Don't call me Miss."

"Okay, then, Sivir, um, ma'am?" Prilofen quickly changed the subject.

He was one of the first Uzeris people to participate in the work of the Glowing Merchant Corps, and was also the first to discover business opportunities and become a cooperative merchant of the Glowing Merchant Corps. Prilofen's current job is to take the supplies purchased from the Glowing Merchant Corps to other cities, then trade for new supplies, and bring them back in exchange for more supplies from the Glowing Merchant Corps.

The water resources of the Glowing Merchant Corps are endless, as is the food. Prilofen made a lot of money from the price difference. He could buy a bottle of water for three gold coins, take it to the depths of Shurima, and then sell it for more than ten gold coins.

Although the journey is dangerous and long, it is normal for businessmen to take risks for profit.

After hearing what Prilofen said, Sivir sighed. She walked into the storage room in her glowing work clothes and easily moved out two boxes of water and put them on the table. She looked at Prilofen and said seriously, "I hope you can bring the bottles back next time. To them, bottles are more valuable than water. Do you understand?"

"The bottles are not easy to recycle, and it's hard to find someone after selling them, but I will try next time." Prilofen was still very scared of the killer in front of him.

The more I go out, the more I realize how dangerous this lady named Sivir is.
At least one hundred Shurimans died at her hands. She was a real killer!
With a beautiful roll of her eyes, Sivir waved her hand, indicating that Prilofen could leave with the water.

After Prilofen left, Sylvie sat at the counter, supporting her chin with one hand, her eyes full of confusion. She was really confused and helpless about her current life. Was her choice at that time really the right one?

To be honest, I always feel that something is wrong!
How come I, a top-level, bloodthirsty and capable mercenary, am now doing the job of carrying goods and running a store?

I told you I'm a good fighter! I can find treasure for him, but why doesn't he believe me?
The more Sivir thought about it, the angrier she became.

It was not until Luo Wen came to take over that her expression immediately changed and she smiled at Luo Wen.

"It's time to change shifts. It's time for you to rest." Rowan, who had just finished practicing magic in the room, came out and said to Sivir.

With Lux's guidance, Rowan's understanding of magic has become deeper and deeper. Magic is not just about having skill levels, but also requires continuous development and mastery. For example, now Rowan can use magic to create small ice cubes.

But compared to Lux's ability to create icebergs, his small ice cubes, well, are still very useful for freezing wine and juice.

"Okay, boss." Xiweier said respectfully.

Yes, her attitude changed very quickly, but after seeing Luo Wen’s strength, this change in attitude was normal!
She is aloof, but at the same time she also knows how to survive!

She had bowed her head many times in the past, either to her employer or to some elders and warlords. What was wrong with bowing her head in order to survive?
Just two days ago, the mercenary team that Shiver used to be in came to the door. They rode into Uzeris on horseback. Dozens of them rode into Uzeris with weapons on horseback. The feeling of oppression was very strong, but they were taken down in an instant!

Sivir thought Lily was bragging. With fifty of her capable fighters, they could have ruled a few towns. But what happened? She really wasn't lying.
Is it true that the gap between mercenaries and real soldiers is huge?
Especially Rowan. Sivir only saw him raise his hand with the sword, and in a breath, a group of people a few meters away fell down, well, they were split into two halves.

Hey Hey hey!
This is fucking magic, right?!
A few meters away, he swung his sword and cut more than a dozen people in half!

If this isn’t magic, what is?
As a result, Luo Wen said seriously that this was sword energy.

Ha ha
Sivir really didn't believe that swordsmanship could have such an effect!
But those Demacians believed it!
They still praise him foolishly, saying that he is getting stronger and stronger, and he really deserves to be the Black Lion of Demacia!

In short, Sivir was in awe of Rowan's strength, but at the same time she wanted to complain about these people.

"By the way, boss, it's better not to let merchants go deep into Shurima during this period." Sivir took off her work clothes, picked up the water beside her and started drinking.

Although she felt confused about her future, Sivir was still very satisfied that she could have free water and good food here.

"Why?" Rowan looked at Sivir and asked curiously.

"If you go out and listen to what people are saying outside, you'll know why." Sivir whispered, and then she explained, "Because the creatures from the underground have come out again. Some warriors killed the underground creatures and brought them to the city for display. But these creatures are just like cockroaches. If you find one, it means there are probably hundreds or thousands of them out."

Luo Wen was stunned for a moment, then his mouth twitched, "Underground creatures? Are they purple?"

"Don't you know this?"

"Anyway, Shurima has been restless recently, but we don't have to worry. Those strange creatures have their own range of activities and they won't come here." Sivir stretched and then said, "What are we going to eat for dinner tonight?"

"Go ask Lux, she is responsible for dinner." Rowan said to Sivir.

Xiweier made a "tsk" sound and turned to walk into the inner room.

Rowan then walked out of the shop, called a traveling merchant, and asked him about the things deep in Shurima.

Then, Rowan rubbed his cheek.

The void is really starting to become restless.

But what's the reason?
Luo Wen stroked his chin curiously.

In fact, low-level void monsters are not a big threat. In Rowan's opinion, void worms and burrowing beasts are just a group of ferocious but brainless beasts. If the local warriors of Shurima can kill them, there is no reason why the soldiers of Demacia cannot defeat them.

But the problem is, as Sivir said, the terrifying thing about the void is not the combat power of the monsters. Excluding the boss-level ones like Kog'Math, most of them are just minions, and Mantis is also a stronger minion! The real threat is the problem of quantity.

When the endless swarm of insects comes like a sea of ​​sand, Demacia will not be able to stop it. Unless one has the strength of a demigod, it will be too difficult to stop it!
so.
What exactly is the reason for the danger deep in the desert?
Hiss. I should have paid more attention to the background story of the alliance!

Luo Wen thought with a headache.

But fortunately, there is one thing that Rowan knows, that is, in the short term, the void is unlikely to flood over! And in the future, someone will solve the void threat under Shurima.

Azir is not in a hurry, so why should he be in a hurry!
The emperor is really not in a hurry. At least he is not in a hurry!

However, some Demacians who were protecting the merchants outside had to be recalled.

Although Luo Wen had great confidence in their military strength, they would definitely not be able to return if they really encountered a swarm of insects.

After taking a deep breath, Luo Wen squinted his eyes and began to doze off.

Recently, life has become more and more comfortable.
At the same time, deep in Shurima.

"Thank you. If it weren't for you, our team would have been wiped out."

After taking a breath, Dodd placed his hands on his chest and made a standard knight's salute.

In front of him was a woman who was wearing thick clothes and whose appearance could not be seen clearly. She wrapped herself tightly, but Dodd, who had good eyesight, could still clearly see that her clothes seemed to be moving?

But how can clothes move?

Dodd felt strange.

"Stay away from this place and don't come here again." She said in a very pleasant voice.

"I'm sorry, I can't promise you this because I'm a soldier and obeying orders is my duty." Dodd shook his head at her, then hesitated and said, "Also, you seem to be injured?"

As he spoke, Dodd was about to step forward.

The other party shouted angrily: "Don't come over here!"

"." Dodd stepped back awkwardly.

The other party seemed to have noticed that he had lost his composure, and his tone softened as he spoke, "I'm fine, I just need to rest. As for you, I'm sorry, I can't help you get your goods back."

"The void creatures will devour everything. The goods are gone, so it's your loss."

"What does this have to do with you?" Dodd asked doubtfully, "You saved our lives, so should I expect you to compensate us for our goods? That is not something a human can do."

The other party was stunned, and then she said softly: "Yes, you are right."

"Let's separate here. I have something else to do."

"Well, if you need anything, you can come to me and I will do my best to help you. We live in Uzeris now. If you go to Uzeris, just tell them the name of the Glowing Merchant Group and someone will take you to find our boss." Dodd said seriously.

"Even though you are very strong, I still have to say that this is not a place for a woman to stay."

After Dodd finished speaking, he called out to the members of the caravan, and they set off towards the north.

This time, Dodd saw the "monster".

Purple, twisted and horrible creatures as tall as human knees, and a woman who could release light bomb explosions and fly in the air.

Dodd knew that it was magic. As a Demacian, he should reject magic and hate this woman.

But. The other party saved his life.

The Demacians could not betray their benefactors, so even though communicating with them would go against their beliefs, Dodd still followed his heart.

If he violates Demacia's ban on magic, he may no longer be a pure Demacian.

But if he betrays the person who saved his life, then he can no longer be called a human being.

"See you someday. Um, can I know your name?"

Taking a deep breath, Dodd suddenly looked at the lonely figure in the distance and shouted.

The figure paused, as if hesitating.

Then Dodd heard her voice.

"Kasha."

------

This chapter says, you must read it!
 Regarding this chapter, I made a very bold adaptation. According to the timeline of the original background, in 984, Kai'Sa had not yet merged with the Void. It was only two or three years later that Kai'Sa became a half-Void existence.

  The reason why I made this change is, as I said, to make the timeline of the story look more complete, so that everyone can better combine the heroes when reading the story.

  After all, if you ask Riot to do it, can Riot dare to say that it can integrate the heroes of various regions? Riot really can't do it, so it keeps eating the books, rewriting the background stories and settings of the heroes.

  Why is this so? That’s because the hero settings and stories are created by different people. With hundreds of characters written by dozens of people with different personalities and ideas, deviations are inevitable.

  So if I were to write according to the original timeline, a lot of content would become difficult to write, so I decided to just use Riot's major events as the starting point, the big settings as the background, and then I would bring the characters in and integrate them in.

  There are both advantages and disadvantages to doing this.

  The downside is that it will lack the original official settings, and readers who are familiar with the background settings may feel that there are deviations, but I guarantee that the personalities of the heroes that appear are all written according to the original settings.

  The advantage is that this way of writing stories can be smoother and allows me to write more "original content".

  Well, please share your thoughts.
