An Infinite Journey From the Sea of ​​Stones

It can be said that Syndra alone has a powerful strength that most of the forces in Runeterra cannot match.

And this strength, in the eyes of the Ionians, is a kind of original sin.

Syndra's master, an old priest named Cornigan, deceived Syndra. He tried to reduce Syndra's magic power, just to allow the girl to better control her gift.

But no one wants to be deceived, even if the person and the reason for the deception are well-intentioned, and the overall situation is the most important.

Those who hold such a banner and think that the ignorance of others is a kind of happiness are themselves immersed in this arrogance based on superiority.As for the Ionians, it seems that many have such a bad habit.

After the angry Syndra knew that she had been deceived, she killed her master and almost destroyed the entire piece of Philo. She drained the magic power of the entire land, and in the end even Ioni The soul of Asia confronted her in person, which made her fall into a deep sleep.

Now, the cloud volume appeared here.

The purpose of his coming here is to awaken Syndra.

In fact, from the perspective of profit, he should try to steal Syndra's power while she is asleep—even if only one percent of the magic power radiated from this girl can easily The creation of a powerful magician.

But Yunjuan didn't have such an idea, not at all.

He didn't stand here with any thought of profit, he sat cross-legged in front of the sleeping Syndra just to wake her up.

But...before he wakes up, he wants to talk to her.

But when the girl wandering in the dream came back to the dying willow after being drained of her magic power, she saw a young man feeding him with blood.

"hello."

The young man showed a friendly smile at the girl. He had long hair and looked very young, but for some reason, the girl always felt that he looked like the old monk in the village.

"Who are you?" The girl asked curiously but also warily.

"I am a story teller, and a traveler who helps those who deserve help." The young man folded his hands and said softly

"Are you helping it...it's clearly dying."

The girl bypassed the young man and looked at the dying willow in amazement. With the blood dripping and absorbing, this ancient magical willow seemed to be renewing its vitality.

"Why are you helping him? Doesn't it hurt to hurt yourself?"

"Of course it hurts." The young man put away his hand to bandage the wound, but said relaxedly

"But I think it deserves help, and a lot of things in this land deserve help, because you help them, and they will give you back."

"Then do you help others in return?"

"No..." The young man shook his head, he looked at this curious girl, his eyes flickered, and said slowly

"I will help many people and many things, because I believe that human nature is good... I believe that those who are worthy of help will help more people after being saved, and those who are sinful will also go after being saved. help more people."

"But it's never been like this!" the girl retorted aggressively with her hands on her hips

"Even if you help some bad guys, they will only use your capital to harm more people!"

"I don't deny that." The young man smiled and nodded

"But I just can't turn a blind eye to those who need help, and sometimes right and wrong are relative, right?"

"If it were you, child, what choice would you make?"

"I will use my strength to eradicate rape and evil!" The girl replied without hesitation

"I will help the weak get revenge, deal with the powerful villains, and maintain a better world!"

"Good idea!" The young man smiled and applauded, then shook his head and sighed

"But child, the world is not as simple as you think... Let me give you a simple example, child, if one day, you really have unrivaled power, but you will What do you do when the people around you have an indelible impact?"

"I will...I will control myself!"

"So what if you can't control it? You need to weaken your own strength or even seal him so as not to affect more people. If this is the case, how should you choose?"

The girl's brows were tightly furrowed, and a pair of willow-like eyebrows were constantly shaking. Looking at her, the young man continued:

"Then let's change the subject, child. What is your judgment of good and evil? Do you follow the present and the present, or do you go to understand the deeper past?"

"If you see a man bullying a pair of orphans and widows, you will punish that man out of kindness. But if this man's parents, wives and children were all forced to death by this bully man in the past, would you How will it be judged?"

The question of youth made the girl's brow furrowed even more. She was still immature and innocent, so she couldn't make a judgment on this question.

"Laws, regardless of justice or not, they will always judge and punish according to the present continuous tense."

The young man clasped his palms together, watched the willow swaying in the wind, and said softly

"The law can't make judgments on the cause and effect of the past, it can only judge evil and it is difficult to make a corresponding answer to the 'right' in the entanglement of cause and effect. And your justice, or this idea of ​​punishing evil and promoting good, and this The law is of a nature."

"I used to have the same idea as you, and I even created a huge disaster for it."

"The places I have been to are far more filthy than the land of birth, full of desire and greed, there are always a group of fat-headed rich people and the so-called upper class over the top of the lower class, or something happens every day An outrageous tragedy..."

"Do you know the golden devil?"

The girl nodded lightly, that famous murderer, the guy who was born in Zhiyun Province, but eventually became the nightmare of the whole Ionia.

"Although most of the things that happened in my place can't be compared with the horror of the Golden Demon,... those things that happened will make people feel a sense of powerlessness and anger in the bottom of their hearts ,"

The young man paused and sighed.

"And such things happen almost every day, every moment. After all, the population base is too large...The progress of society has also brought some bottom line decline."

"I wanted to change that world, so I created a 'hell', a hell that everyone goes through to atone for their sins after certain death."

"Do you think those people will thank me?"

The girl shook her head lightly, although she couldn't tell why, but since he said so, the answer must be this

"Some will, some won't. I have established a final bottom line and fairness, but I can see how they resent me many years later." The young man smiled

"After actually witnessing hell, they began to crave mercy, so I stand here and look like this...but I don't actually hate them, it's my own inconsideration. "

"People don't hate privileges, they just hate privileges outside of themselves. They clearly desire fairness in their hearts, but the motivation to move forward is how to become a person who stands on top of others."

"In the final analysis, the happiness of life may depend on comparing these people who are more miserable than themselves."

"What do you want to say?" the girl asked suspiciously.

"What I want to say is...Since I can't use my power to transform a satisfactory world, then I will hand over the power to their hands."

The young man put his hands together and said with a smile

"I will save the dying and give my power to those who are powerless. I believe that people are inherently good, but I also know that humans are inherently evil. Therefore, the only gift I can give them is not mercy, but freedom."

"Give everyone in this world what they desire, and then I will watch them transform their world with my own eyes."

"Just like you, Syndra."

Yunjuan said with a smile.

When this name rang in his ears, this endlessly repeated dream was finally punctured.

She's been through it once.She's been through it many times, hundreds of times.Live this time over and over again.

The most advanced dream is just like reality, and she regards this as reality, precisely because she is so sober, with the ten-year-old character and soul, endless loops in this dream.

But when her name was mentioned, when Yun Juan's indifferent and casual voice rang in her ears through the barrier of dreams——

Syndra's hatred and rage began to coalesce into darkness, stirring within her.

So she woke up from the endless dream.

Syndra freed her hands and feet from the roots, and emerged from the water, gasping for breath.The water trickled down her body, and Syndra rose into the air, hovering a few feet above the water's surface, the falling water sparking sparkling points of light in the pulsating halo of the water.Syndra one

The hand radiated dark energy, hanging the cloud in the air, doing nothing, and Syndra's eyes burned with a cold fire.

"If it makes you happy, then do it."

Yunjuan just looked at Syndra with a smile, and said easily without fear.

Even though Syndra could crush him with just one finger, he was still fearless. This kind of calm compassion and calm self-confidence made Syndra very unhappy.

This reminded her of the past, how she was sealed by the woman possessed by the soul of Ionia.

"How long?" Syndra asked commandingly, her voice cracked and erratic from her long sleep. "How long have I been stuck here?"

"I'm just a traveler, so I don't know." Yunjuan said softly

"I'm here to wake you up, Syndra. I'm not an Ionian. I'm here to give you freedom just because I've heard your story."

"The tyranny I have experienced is due to those I once called my countrymen!" Syndra's voice was hoarse and full of anger, and she threw away the cloud roll, which crashed into someone twenty feet away. The rock wall fell heavily and fell to the ground in pain.

"But you're not my jailer...what's going on here?!"

"Noxus has invaded here." Ari, who hid in the corner, poked out her head and said cautiously

"Noxus invaded Ionia and waged wars everywhere, they plundered Falor, killed the people who guarded here, and then... and then we came."

"I don't know what Noxus is, but I'd be happy if they slaughtered Ionia!"

Syndra's voice was full of distorted pleasure, and she could clearly feel her endless hatred for Ionia

"You're like a little kid."

Yunjuan patted the dust off his body, and said softly

"What did you say?!"

Syndra's voice became extremely angry, and the terrifying and distorted magic power condensed a shadow ball in her palm!

You only need to blast it out, and Yunjuan will be blown to nothing. However, Syndra didn't throw it out, but just looked at him and asked coldly.

"What is the purpose of your coming here?!"

"Release you, that's all." Yun Juan clasped his hands together, coughed lightly, and said slowly

"Your desire to be free is right. What right does someone who speaks about the bigger picture have the right to keep a teenager in his dreams for decades? I think you need help, that's all."

Syndra stared at Yunjuan for a moment, then sneered disdainfully.

"I don't need the help of a weak person like you! Your body is so weak that even ordinary people are different. Is this the price you pay for feeding those willows? Stupid and self-righteous guy!"

"I'm not like you! I don't need pity, I don't need companions, I just need myself. My energy is endless!!!"

As if to reflect her own words, a crown grew from Syndra's head.The crown encircled her brow, as if the darkness had been brought to life, forming a pair of tall, curved horns.

A pure Shadow Orb appeared in the center of the crown, silhouetted like a jewel, burning like fire, emitting waves of energy like Syndra's blood.

"You are not qualified to preach to me! You are not qualified to persuade me to give up my power like those stupid monks!"

"I will never persuade you to give up your power." Yunjuan closed his eyes and said softly

"I just let you go, let someone who deserves to be free go free. As for where you go and what you do when you leave the dream, that's your justice."

"How you implement and implement your justice is your will, I just helped the people who should be helped!"

"...you are indeed different from those monks."

Syndra's anger suddenly seemed to be extinguished, she looked down at the clouds sitting cross-legged, and said coldly

"I don't feel any malice in you...but why can't I feel kindness? Are you doing so much for your justice?"

"But no matter what, you did release me from the dream, and I owe you a favor!"

After all, Syndra instantly soared, and in the distant sky, the stars were blinking, Syndra ascended, and floated towards freedom.She glanced back at her feet one last time, and raised her hand towards the distant island.

The entire island was rumbling, as if it had been hit by an earthquake.An earthquake that seems to last forever.

When everything stopped, a chilling silence enveloped the whole of Feilor, and Ari, who was lying in Yunjuan's arms, covered his face with his paws, watching this terrifying scene in amazement!

She saw the entire island and the mountains spreading above it were pulled up into the sky abruptly, as if the entire continent had been lifted into the sky!

She also saw a Noxus fleet docked by the sea being pulled up abruptly by an invisible force, human beings fell into the water like dumplings, and these ships were squeezed into balls in the air.

Even though Ahri has lived for such a long time and is well-informed, the scene before him is a bit too exaggerated!

She knows that magic is amazing, and magic is also very powerful, but this level is a bit too beyond imagination!

But these are not important, the most important thing is...

"She just ran away? We woke her up from her sleep and she just ran away?!"

Ari snuggled into Yunjuan's arms and complained loudly, they came all the way to help this unlucky little girl, but he left without saying anything.

"I've said it before, don't always have the mentality of asking for it. The idea of ​​repaying favors is not wrong, but there is no need to keep it in your heart."

"Besides, who said that I have nothing in return? Ari, haven't you noticed that the soul of Ionia... has accepted me further. When I sleep tonight, I may dream of Ai Ornia might as well."

Ari looked at Yunjuan, he was right, Yunjuan's figure became more natural and even integrated into things at this moment, this appearance as if fused with the environment, it is impressive that after entering the epiphany consciousness and Ionia What it looks like after the souls intersect!

"But... wasn't that guy sealed by the soul of Ionia himself?"
