LOL: The days of cultivating immortals in Rune Continent

Chapter 63 Shurima is really not safe anymore
Demacia, Throne Mountain.

Jarvan III looked at the letter in front of him with a strange expression.

Mette stood aside, looking very happy with a broad smile on her face.

This made Jarvan III say something to him.

"He won't give you the money he makes, so why are you happy for him?"

After hearing Jarvan III's joke, Mette placed his hand on his chest, leaned forward and said implicitly, "I am happy that Demacia has produced another darling, Your Majesty."

"You."

Jarvan III waved his hand and lowered his head to continue reading the letter.

This letter was sent to him by Rowan, who was far away in Shurima.

[Your Majesty, the Shurimans in Uzeris have begun to learn the Demacia language. They have taken the initiative to learn our dialect from our soldiers. I did not stop them. I think this is a good start. I have always believed that Demacia's policies are too closed. Under your wise guidance, I have also seen that all countries in the world are constantly improving and becoming stronger, while Demacia has always been closed to the outside world. However, since you took office, Demacia has developed shipping, expanded trade, and gained more.]

A faint smile appeared on Jarvan III's lips.

It's strange that although Rowan is very young, Jarvan III always feels that Rowan's ideas are in line with his. If he didn't love only Caitlyn in his life, Jarvan III even suspected that Rowan would be his offspring.

But think about the other person's black hair and black eyes.
It seems that I am also crazy about having an outstanding offspring.

Jarvan III thought with a strange look on his face, Jarvan IV was not bad, on the contrary, he was just, courageous, brave, and possessed all the qualities that a Demacia soldier should have, but if compared with Rowan
In fact, Jarvan III hoped that he could learn a little sophistication and tact from Rowan.

[Shurima still has many treasures. I will try my best to bring all the treasures back to Demacia. Although it is strange to say this, in my opinion, the Shurimans do not have a sense of belonging. So, Your Majesty, I think that in the future, many Shurimans in Uzeris will want to join Demacia. I don't know what you think, but I don't recommend expanding the city-state in Shurima. This place is very dangerous, very, very dangerous. ]

Mette leaned over and also read the contents of the letter.

This behavior was a bit too much, but Jarvan III did not stop Mette.

Because Mette is his confidant, in Jarvan III's heart, apart from his son who he can absolutely trust, the only people he can trust in the entire city are Mette and Xin Zhao.

The former coexists with the interests of Jarvan III. If something happens to Jarvan III, Mette's status and rights will also be damaged. The latter simply respects and worships Jarvan III.

"He's really good at making trouble," Jarvan III muttered when he saw this. Then, he looked at Mette and said in a deep voice, "Several hundred Shurimans are going to be incorporated into Demacia. This is no small project."

"I agree. The Shurimans are very skilled in craftsmanship, and their animal husbandry is also very advanced. In this regard, I must say that we are not as good as them," Mette said.

Demacia's agriculture is extremely developed, but in terms of animal husbandry, it is indeed not as good as Shurima.

The quality of Shurima's mutton is the best in Valoran. Many nobles in Demacia would buy Shurima's blue sheep for food. Being able to raise such good sheep in such a harsh environment shows that the local people have their own animal husbandry skills.

In Mette's opinion, this is technology that can be introduced to make Demacia richer.

"There is no precedent," said Jarvan III.

Mette stopped talking, the next sentence was not something he could say.

As expected, Mette then saw Jarvan III chuckle, put his index finger on the table, and said, "I can set this precedent."

"They stopped me from being lenient towards wizards and abolishing forbidden magic. Can they stop me from doing this?"

"Your Majesty is wise," said Mette.

"Send Luo Wen all the supplies he needs and tell him that I want 70% of his money. He uses my people and sells my things, but all the money is his. Is this reasonable?"

"This is outrageous. Giving him 30% is a sign of your kindness." Mei Te nodded.

After Mette left, Xin Zhao walked in from the door and guarded Jarvan III.

And Jarvan III also lowered his head and began to write.

"How about I arrange a marriage for your godson?"

Jarvan III suddenly said.

Zhao Xin heard this and said helplessly: "Your Majesty, I haven't been able to adopt him as my son yet."

"Oh, why aren't you objecting?" Jarvan III looked up and looked at Xin Zhao with amusement.

"." Zhao Xin said nothing.

"The trouble is, should we let him be with the Mianwei family or with the Buwell family?"

Jarvan III muttered to himself.

Uzeris——

Ever since the news of Void Woodlice appearing in Shurima, the number of traveling merchants in Shurima has indeed decreased a lot, but the population of Uzeris has increased a lot.

When Luo Wen first came to Uzeris, the population of this place was two or three hundred people, but now, the population of this harbor town has exceeded a thousand, and many places in the town have been expropriated for construction.

As a result, Luo Wen naturally made a lot of profit.

The houses were offered for sale or rent to the Shurimans who came to Uzeris. Although the locals accepted them with pleasure, Rowan himself felt strange about it.

He was a Demacian who went to Shurima to start a merchant group, and then he expropriated land and sold houses.
Does this count as taking over the magpie's nest?

Anyway, how to describe the benefits that Luo Wen has earned recently?
Basically, Lilisi can now wear diamond rings on all ten fingers, and she can wear several on one finger!
In Shurima, gems are not rare, but in Demacia, they are exclusive to the nobility!
But in fact, if you change your thinking, it is the Glowing Merchant Group that provides the manpower, it is the Glowing Merchant Group that provides the materials, and it is also the Glowing Merchant Group that protects and develops Uzeris, so it is not surprising that Luo Wen is the mayor?
And today, Luo Wen received another piece of news.

"The monster seems to be getting closer. Traces of the monster have been found in Zurita."

"Don't they say they only appear in the deep?"

"It seems that they were brought here. These monsters will kill all living things around them. The elders of Nashram have already issued a bounty and arranged warriors to destroy the monsters."

"Could it be brought here by a traveling merchant? I remember a few days ago a merchant from Zerima came over and proudly said in the tavern that he had escaped the monster's pursuit."

"It's possible. When I went to Zerima some time ago, there were many of our people there. The news about Uzeris has spread there. But it's not surprising. Zerima is a merchant camp deep in the country. Many merchants trade goods and exchange information there."

Back at the Glowing Shop, Luo Wenzheng grabbed Sivir seriously, looked at the beautiful lady, and asked in a deep voice:
"That's different from what you said. Didn't you say that the monsters wouldn't run to the outskirts of Shurima?"

"How could I know that things would turn out like this?" Sivir looked indignant and retorted to Rowan, "And this matter has something to do with you, okay? Do you know how many merchants came to Uzeris overnight after Zerima spread the word that there was cheap and clean water to buy in Uzeris? When I came to Uzeris before, there were only two or three hundred people in this place, but look at it now!"

"The permanent population has almost doubled. If we add in a large number of traveling merchants, the population of Uzeris now exceeds 3,000! Do you know what this means? If it continues to develop like this, Uzeris will become the second largest city on the coast!"

Sivir said loudly.

Her rebuttal was so powerful that Luo Wen was speechless.

"So, it's because of the traveling merchants?"

"It must be because of them. They thought they had escaped the monsters' pursuit, but in fact, as long as those monsters discovered humans, no, not just humans, but also animals, as long as they were discovered by them, they would keep chasing them, unless other people passed by in the middle, otherwise they would keep being chased." Shiver said seriously.

This is no secret among mercenaries. There are three most dangerous things when traveling in Shurima. One is the harsh environment when Shurima changes from day to night. The other is the dangerous predators in Shurima. It is said that these guys will eat their own kind. The last one is the monsters.

If you are discovered by a monster, in order to survive you need not only great strength but also luck!
"What the hell is this?"

"So, I'm not telling you false news. It's just that Uzeris has been too lively recently." Sivir said seriously.

"But you can rest assured that they will definitely not run to Uzeris, because there is a large flow of people here. If something really happens, the first people to be affected will be the people of Piltover who come here to hunt for treasures."

Rowan nodded and let Sivir leave. Rowan also began to reflect that the changes in Uzeris were indeed too great, even Demacia was affected. Naturally, Shurima, as the home ground, had no reason not to be affected.

So there are some things to prepare in advance.

For example, defending against void creatures.

It’s not that Rowan is kind-hearted and wants to help the Shurimans, but the Void creatures are the common enemies of all living beings in Runeterra. Even Rowan, who doesn’t know much about the background of the Alliance, knows that the Void is the villain boss.

Therefore, in order to fight against void creatures, we must be prepared in advance.

Although Sivir said Uzeris would not be affected.

As Luo Wen thought about this, he began to break down the useless skills he had acquired this month.

He will be able to refine a second super-level skill soon!

------

Four days later, Uzeris.

Rowan looked at Sivir again, and this time, Miss Sivir turned her head away.

Then, Luo Wen moved a stool and sat next to her.

Sivir immediately retracted her head and then lowered it.

"Speak, come on, speak."

"."

"Turn on the mic, come on!"

"Boss, you know, well, things sometimes go wrong, and now is one of those times." Sylvie raised her head, looked at Rowan and spoke in a low voice.

She looked at Luo Wen, speechless and angry.

This ghost knows that they will really come here!
Just yesterday, the Uzeris merchant who went to Bergun returned with the corpse of a monster.

The merchant bought this corpse in Bergen, specifically for Rowan, because he heard from somewhere that the captain was interested in monsters, so he bought one and brought it back. When it arrived in Uzeris, it was still warm and not yet dead.

This shows that this one was hunted near Berghun.

When Luo Wen saw the corpse, his first reaction was - isn't this an excavator?
But then, Luo Wen immediately shook his head.

The Void Burrower is a type of void creature, and Rek'Sai, often called the Excavator, is the queen of this group. What makes Rowan speechless is that the size of this Rek'Sai is already larger than that of an ordinary horse.

How big can Rek'Sai be?

If it is two or three times larger than an ordinary burrower, then Rek'Sai's height is at least close to four meters, and its length is...
Luo Wen was a little afraid to think about it.

"Forget it." Rowan said to Sivir, then got up and left.

He first found Carl and told him to summon the Demacia soldiers and send a message to let everyone in Uzeris prepare to defend against the void creatures.

Then, Rowan found Lux ​​again.

When I saw Lux, she was circling around the corpse of the burrower with an excited look on her face.

Seeing Rowan, Lux immediately rushed over and pointed at the corpse of the burrowing beast and asked, "Is this the monster the locals are talking about?"

"Yes," Luo Wen responded subconsciously, and then immediately said, "No, why are you so excited?"

"Of course I'm excited!" Lux clenched her fists, raised them in front of her, and said loudly to Rowan, "Isn't the reason I practice magic to use magic to deal with these guys?!"

"."Rowen's first reaction was to think of the CG that came out for the League of Legends mobile game, in which the cute Lux also fantasized about using magic to hit the stone man.

So are you adventurous?
"Even if you really encounter them, you can't use magic, right?" Rowan said to Lux with amusement.

Lux was immediately discouraged and said in a slurred voice, "Well, can we take the initiative to go out and look for them? Just the two of us."

"Will Lilisi and Puna agree?"

"We can carry them on our backs."

"." Luo Wen fell silent.

Seeing that Rowan was silent, Lux took action, grabbed Rowan's arm with both hands, and shook him, saying, "Go, go, I'm very strong, and if I really encounter danger, I can ask my big friend to come over, it can fly!"

Rowan immediately looked at Lux seriously, "Don't ask your older friend to come out."

Who is Lux's best friend?
It's Galio!
If Lux releases her magic into the sky, Galio will definitely be sensed and fly over instantly, because Lux's magic power still remains in Galio's body.

But the question is, isn’t it a bit strange for Galio to come here to fight the Void monster?
Galio is Demacia's demigod-level fighter!
If we fly to Shurima, the demigods of Shurima and the protoss on Mount Targon will give us some feedback that day.

Who knows if Galio will become a demigod by then!

"Then shall we go?"

"It's not impossible." Luo Wen said after thinking about it.

He was indeed a little itchy.

Moreover, Rowan can now fight a group of monsters like the Burrowing Beast alone.

Because Kering has been upgraded to level 3 during this period.
At the same time, Kennesser of Shurima.

This place is not a town, but a place name, close to the nearby port cities of Bergen, Nashram, and several coastal towns.

And a woman was walking alone on the land of Kennesor. Coming all the way from Vikola, Kasa hadn't rested for some time.

But she did not choose to rest, because once she rested, she would want to stop, and once she stopped, many people would be swallowed by the void.

"The smell. Here, and there."

Kassa sniffed, following the scent of the void creature.

She has been hunting these creatures all along. Before, she was the prey, but now, she is the hunter.

But what puzzled Kassadin was why all the Void creatures had been moving towards the periphery recently?

The depths of Shurima are sparsely populated, and void creatures will hibernate when they are not "stimulated", but recently, a large number of creatures have been heading towards the outer lanes, which is something Kaisa has never encountered in the past two years.

Suddenly, Kassa seemed to have thought of something.

She began to recall with a strange look on her face.

[Here, this is the water of Uzeris, drink it without worries, thank you for saving my life. ]

Looking up, Kassa looked in one direction.

Out of the ten people she rescued recently, seven would say this name.

Uzeris
