Battle of the Two Cities: Begins with the Mage

Ryan pointed to the bookshelf behind her and smiled:

"I only carry three books related to soul runes, but you don't have to worry, in the capital of the empire, the immortal fortress, where there are enough books and notes on soul research to fill Piltover's public library."

"Oh, my God! There must be thousands of books!"

Seraphine covered her mouth, thinking that she would read so many books in the future, she couldn't help but look bitter ~www.readwn.com~ the most boring, there is no soul in the book, she wants a book that can sing, like that She can read books all day.

"Forgot to remind you..."

Ryan looked at Seraphine's expression and said in a relaxed manner:

"Immortal Fortress's soul study notes and books are different from ordinary books. They are more or less sealed with twisted souls. You have to be careful not to be polluted."

"what!?"

Seraphine's face froze, such a soul is not worth it!

Return her ordinary books!

Ryan looked at the expression on the girl's face, and in order to increase the other party's enthusiasm, he asked with a light smile:

"Do you know why your ability can't hear my soul singing?"

"why?"

Seraphine sat up obediently and looked at Ryan with big curious eyes. She was very curious about this question.

"Because my soul is protected by runes." Ryan smiled, "Your talent is very strong, but if you want to hear the heroic soul singing, you need to strengthen your talent and make it unique your own magic."

"Heroic... Sister Katerina, isn't she?" Seraphine glanced at the shadow and asked in a very low voice.

"She is still too immature and lacks the corresponding accumulation. Your talent is better than hers. If she doesn't work hard to penetrate her own path, she may be surpassed by you.",

Ryan is outspoken. His words are not only popular science for the apprentice in front of him, but also an encouragement to the girls in the shadows.

"Oh, I'm far worse than Sister Katerina. I can only use it now, and I don't even know the principle of my talent." Seraphine showed a bitter face.

"Learning will help you master these faster. Piltover's most advanced ideas in my eyes are the sharing of science. They publish all new results so that everyone can comment and communicate." Ryan pointed out road.

"To study, you need to read, and I can't even read all the words." Seraphine muttered.

"Knowledge is the basis for a mage to improve. No mage can rely on talent for a lifetime. If you only rely on talent for a mage, if everyone still thinks she is strong, it could only be that she is wasting her talent." Ryan warned.

Knowledge was the biggest reason why he joined Noxa.

Demacia discriminates against mages, Ionia is self-styled, Shurima has long since decayed, Freljord has no mages system at all, only Noxus has a complete legacy of mages.

Those past notes and scrolls that the masters regarded as garbage were the knowledge he cherished most.

It has to be said that it is an irony that the place where knowledge is least valued has the most complete knowledge.

The night was getting dark. When Ryan found that Seraphine was a little confused by the shock of a lot of information, he said warmly:

"Let Katerina take you to rest and digest what you have learned today. There is paper and pen in the room for you. If you don't understand or need help, you can ask Katerina."

"Thank you, teacher!"

Seraphine shook her dazed head and jumped up from her seat like she was amnesty.

Hmm... She thought the knowledge that Ryan was talking about was interesting and useful, but when she listened to it, she always felt that her brain capacity was not enough, and her eyelids were fighting.

She loves knowledge, but knowledge doesn't seem to love her very much.

Perhaps, she had to chat with knowledge in her dreams at night through singing.

She slumped on her stage and was led by Katerina to float out the door.

When he got to the door, Ryan's words came from inside:

"My students shouldn't only know magic. There will be a visitor tomorrow, and you will be there to listen."

"Okay! Mr. Ryan!"

Seraphine's face that had not been happy for a long time completely collapsed, and she lowered her head and let the stage lead out the door.

Ryan looked at her lost vitality, shook his head a little funny, and continued to lower his head to read the book about runes.

He heard Swain say that the first wave of the future enemies of the Empire is best at soul magic.

Judging from the fact that the Immortal Fortress has a large number of soul notes, there is some kind of speculation in his heart.

Perhaps, Seraphine will bring him some kind of surprise.

......

The next afternoon.

Ryan and Camille sat opposite each other in a quiet room, their faces were unusually calm.

Seraphine and Katerina stood behind Ryan, one uneasy and the other calm.

"This is the Chaturanga widely spread in the Empire? It is said that it came from your creativity."

Camille picked up a black armored soldier chess piece named 'Pawn' and moved forward two squares.

Ryan stroked his palm lightly, the 'horse' chess piece lit up in blue, and he jumped out of his square.

"Knights, war horses, mages, soldiers, kings and queens, it's interesting, isn't it?"

"The soldiers have too many restrictions. The king is a waste, and the queen is able to run wild. It's a very interesting metaphor. When Darkwill sees this chess, his face must be very interesting." Camille shook his head mockingly.

"His opinion is not important, the main reason is that the queen is very satisfied, which allows Chaturanga to spread unimpeded in the empire." Ryan smiled lightly.

Camille raised her eyebrows, moved the knight and jumped into Ryan's position: "You have always been so conceited~www.readwn.com~ even put your intentions on the chessboard. Killing the king is the only way to win. ."

Snapped!

Ryan, who was at the border of the two sides, waved his staff, and a stream of water hit the knight who passed the border along the diagonal Haig, shattering the blow and occupying the square where the knight was.

"But if the mage is always stuck in a critical position, the king and queen will be stuck in their throats, and the powerful queen will think about whether to die for the king," Ryan said.

"It's true, the king will either be slowly devoured in the end, or there will be a general attack. Anyway, it's not the queen who died in the end."

Camille chuckled and moved the king chess piece to expose it. The queen chess is hidden behind it.

In the end, the king was mercilessly beheaded by the opponent's chess pieces, while the queen remained safe and sound.

She raised her head and said calmly and gracefully:

"Your Majesty, what do you need me to do?"

"No need to do anything, that's Swain's home, this is my home."

Ryan shook his head, but instead mentioned another thing:

"Do you have any thoughts on the series of events that happened last night? Feel free to mention anything you need help."

"Your Majesty, you are like a boss who thinks about money when he sympathizes with his subordinates. You are extremely hypocritical. What should I think? I want a peaceful Piltover, but this is your home ground."

Camille frowned slightly and repeated what Ryan just said.

What happened last night couldn't have happened without Ryan's participation. The council mentioned it this morning, but the other party would ridiculously think that the Noxians would take the initiative to help.

Not sure, everything that happened last night was in the other party's plan.
