"I assume you're not Demacian? Where are you from? Noxus? No... Shurima? Or Ionia?"
"Ionia. I've been in Noxus, too."
"You have really rich experience. The...'power' in your body is not allowed in Demacia. Why did you come here?"
"With the same purpose as you."
"Same?" Jax suddenly thought of some kind of deformed creature, and his eyes suddenly lit up. "You mean...those? Have you seen it too? The cracks in Icacia...the passage leading to another world?"
"I have never been to Icathia, but I have seen the same thing in Freljord." Chen Ce whispered, "Those deformed and twisted monsters covered with tentacles... they are not easy to deal with."
Hearing this, Jax became even more excited as his inner guess was confirmed.
He originally just wanted to find a strong enough warrior here as a companion - he would slowly explain everything about the void in the future... But now, even the explanation is omitted.
Only those who have seen the void know the horror of the void, and understand that only by fighting for everything can they be defeated!
And the young man in front of him... He is only in his early twenties, but his skills have reached such a level, not to mention the magic power hidden in his body... all kinds of energy... he even knows the void... he even has a relationship with The experience of fighting...
A perfect partner!
"If the demon...'power' in your body is fully released, I think your fighting power will never be inferior to mine!" Jax became excited - he never envied other people's strength. On the contrary, He wants others to be as strong as possible.
Only if you are strong enough can you protect yourself and your family in the gloomy future!
"I really want to see your true strength...Chen Ce, you are the most outstanding young man I have ever seen! When we have the opportunity, we can compete again in private. I think you will definitely surprise me again. !”
"That's too much praise." Chen Ce bowed his hand, "My strength is not as good as yours, I can only be considered... not bad?"
His words were modest, but they were not modest - he did consider himself inferior to the other person.
At least in terms of head-on combat, he should be inferior to Jax.
If he doesn't rely on the help of Mordekaiser and Rhaast, and relies entirely on himself - even if he adds some of the demonic power given by Ram, he may not be a match for Jax.
The super defense and internal attack provided by [Grandmaster's Power]...are definitely something that no one can withstand.
If you want to really defeat Jax, you can only have a certain degree of confidence by borrowing the power of Rhaast to transform into a Darkin, dragging the opponent into a desperate situation, and then using the power of the devil to spy on his weaknesses.
The title of duel king in the canyon is not for nothing.
"Anyway, I'm looking forward to it." Jax smiled heartily and took out another hard-boiled egg from his pocket. "This is for you. There are a lot of things that are inconvenient to talk about now. I will talk to you in private when I have time."
"No problem." Chen Ce took the hard-boiled egg and slowly walked off the bridge under the apologetic eyes of the other party - Jax wanted to find a companion who could fight the void together, and was by no means "looking for just one companion."
The more the better.
He still needs to stay on this bridge for a while and find a few more good seedlings with ability or potential.
As for their private matters... the days are long and everyone is in Xiongdu, so there are still many opportunities for detailed discussions in private.
Chen Ce sheathed his sword and left the bridge.
When he got off the bridge, many people looked at him with admiration or surprise - he was the only "challenger" who walked off the bridge standing on his own in the past few days.
Although the final decisive moment was as uncomfortable as being blocked at the peak of his craft, it did not affect people's ability to see that he had extraordinary strength.
The crowd applauded.
Several demon hunters headed by team leader Jonathan immediately gathered around.
"How is it?" Jonathan asked immediately, "Did you use the forbidden magic stone? Do you feel anything?"
"It's used." Chen Ce replied. "With or without the forbidden magic stone, it has little impact on this outsider. It can be basically determined that he is not a black magician who uses despicable and cunning means to defeat others."
Hearing this, Jonathan breathed a sigh of relief - if he was not a magician, it would be none of their business no matter how much Jax occupied the bridge, so there would be no trouble.
"Collect the team, collect the team!" He waved his hand and prepared to go back to the military camp to drink tea.
But Chen Ce did not leave with the others.
"What's wrong?" Jonathan asked, "It's time to pack up and leave. What are you waiting for?"
"I have something else to do." Chen Ce looked at a girl in the crowd - wearing a coat and hood.The other party was also looking at him. "I'll take a half-day off. I won't go back today."
"Ask for leave... OK." Jonathan waved his hand generously and agreed to approve the leave - with the connections of the Crown Guard family, as long as Chen Ce doesn't do anything too extreme or violate the laws and disciplines, he will not No matter.
Also... I don't dare to care.
Brother Fu relied on his connections to come to the Demon Search Corps to experience life. Is there really someone who foolishly went to discipline Brother Fu?
"Thank you, captain." Chen Ce gave him a military salute and watched the other party take the others away.
Then, a certain girl in the crowd immediately ran over with joyful steps.
"It's pretty good, Mr. Chen Chen!"
"It's an honor for me to be praised by Miss Lalala." Chen Ce smiled.
"Talk." Lux spit out half of her pink tongue. Her cute and playful look made people want to pinch her beautiful cheeks. "I was worried just now whether you would go up and get beaten up... Now it seems that your strength is really good!"
"How good is it?"
"It's as good as Galen said."
"How nice is that?"
"Hmm... almost comparable to Galen!" Lux put her little hands behind her back and leaned forward slightly, looking very youthful and lively. "The guy on the bridge should be about the same as Galen. He's pretty awesome!"
"Haha." Chen Ce smiled again.
Galen and Jaxby's words...well...
He'll probably be whipped like a top, right?
"Speaking of which, why are you here, Miss Lalala?"
"Stop calling that name..." Lux rolled her eyes at the other person, "I came here for the same purpose as you came here."
"These words sound familiar... so what's the purpose?" Chen Ce asked again.
"Then what's your purpose here?" Lux asked.
"Of course I'm here to verify if Jax is a magician."
"Me too."
"Ok?"
"Why, can't you?" The girl put her hands on her hips, and the thick coat could not cover her exquisite curves. "Don't you know, I'm a member of the Illuminati!"
"The Illuminati...but what does this have to do with the Illuminati?"
"Of course I'm afraid that someone here will be harmed!"
"Oh~" Chen Ce nodded.
He knew that on the surface the girl's words meant that she was afraid that ordinary people would be harmed by magicians, but in fact... it could be a two-way street.
She is afraid that ordinary people will be harmed by magicians, and she is also afraid that innocent magicians will be harmed by others.
This is the real reason why she is here.
Because she is also a "magician".
"There are quite a lot of people searching for magic in a place like this," Chen Ce suggested suggestively, "If a magician really showed up here, he would probably be discovered right away, right?"
"Um...yeah..." Young Lux suddenly showed some timidity.
Chen Ce then asked: "Speaking of which, why are you dressed like this? Did you sneak out?"
"Sneaking... I don't think so..."
"If it really doesn't happen, then I will ask you to pull it~~~~"
"Shh!"
Lux quickly covered the other person's mouth, fearing that her real name would be heard by others.
"Actually, I... I'm not sneaking around anyway... Oh, don't worry about it!"
"What a weirdo." Chen Ce shrugged and stopped asking any more questions. "Then if there's nothing else, I'll leave first? I still have a little trouble to deal with."
Sona is still waiting at home... You have to go to Mrs. Lestara to get you some sets of clothes first.
"Go ahead, go ahead." Lux waved her hand generously, "I'll be... busy for a while. I'll go back by myself later."
"Okay, see you then?"
"Yeah, bye~" the girl waved goodbye.
Chen Ce didn't stop, waved his hand and was about to leave.
But just when he took the first step, the expression of the girl behind him suddenly changed - she saw a group of familiar military horses in the crowd.
And the woman on horseback... scared her.
"Chen Ce!" Lux grabbed the corner of the Demon Searcher's uniform.
"What's the matter, Miss Lalala?" Chen Ce turned around helplessly.
"Well...you are very skilled!"
"Ah...? What are you talking about?"
"I mean..." The girl's beautiful eyes were a little dodged, and the signs of brewing lies were too obvious.
She held it in for a long time, and finally came out with a lame lie:
"Can you take me to catch rabbits...!"
Chen Ce was inexplicably taken to the outskirts of the city by Lux.
And it was through "unfair means" - they did not go out directly after being inspected through the city gate, but relied on Chen Ce's extraordinary skills to directly climb over the city wall.
Just because Lux said that she didn't want others to know that she was going to catch rabbits - she insisted that she didn't sneak out, she just didn't want others to know that she was going to catch rabbits.
Of course, Chen Ce saw through the other party's little lie at a glance, but he didn't expose it - it was good to go out with this magical girl, just in time to brush up his favorability.
Originally, the reason for approaching her was for the treasure chest... to earn rewards, which is not shabby.
How could you not accept the opportunity to "enhance relationships" that was offered to you?
"What kind of rabbit do you like?" Chen Ce pointed to a large piece of grass in front of him and smiled, "White, gray, or brown? I can catch any color for you."
"Um... this... is all right...?" Apparently, Lux didn't even think about completing the lie that she had been holding back for a long time.
She is not a girl suitable for lying.
"Then why are you catching rabbits?" Chen Ce asked with a deliberate smile.
"Well...it's...yes..."
"Oh, I understand, you want to catch it and roast it, right?"
"Eh...? No, no...! Rabbit is so cute, how can he eat Rabbit!" Lux waved her hand quickly.
"Bunny is so cute, it must be very fragrant with more chili pepper, right?"
"It smells quite good...no!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
"Why are you laughing!" Lux puffed up her cheeks and looked very unhappy.
Chen Ce generously reached out and touched the girl's head - the latter subconsciously resisted, but after realizing that this move was not malicious, she accepted it calmly.
But I'm still a little unconvinced: "Why are you touching my head...I'm not a child..."
"I just think you are cute, Miss Lux." Chen Ce smiled.
"What a cute thing... Why do you say that suddenly..." The girl seemed a little shy, "Even if you praise me, I won't do you any favors..."
"It would be the greatest benefit to me if you let me go out with you."
"……loquacious."
The two started chatting and walked along the grasslands and woods on the outskirts of the city.
Chen Ce told Lux a lot about Ionia, and the latter listened with great interest - she had never left Demacia and was full of yearning for the beautiful land of Ionia.
She also wanted to see the rainbow in the Valley of the Eclipse, the elk in the Forgotten Garden, and the flowers of the Prairie Plains.
She had only read a little bit of these things in books—even secretly.
As the daughter of the Crown Guard family, she was forced to receive various etiquette lessons since she was a child, and the books she read were all "dead books" about history, peace and society, which were very boring.
