Battle of the Two Cities: Begins with the Mage

"Teacher, is this your experience in the arena, it sounds much more powerful than ordinary gladiators." Seraphine boasted.

Contribution to countering the rebellion, honoring the only winner of the death battle, killing dozens of Demacian elites and even generals...

Such a record is enough to give Ryan a place in Noxus.

"It shouldn't be... such an achievement should be a chapter commander." Ezreal interjected and asked.

He has a deep understanding of the deeds of the president of the parliament, which is the object he has to please.

But he heard that the president of the parliament had been serving as the adjutant of the grand commander before.

Fokker shook his head slightly, sighed and said:

"The empire at that time was different from the present. The chief commander was born into a nobleman to be able to rely on meritorious deeds to be directly qualified as a general. Although the empire has always had three paths as a leader, but in the era of the emperor, these paths have more obstacles."

"Darkwill violated the law of strength of the Empire. If Darius didn't let him, I would have chopped off that old guy a long time ago." Draven stroked his beard, his face full of indignation.

In what way is he inferior to Urgot's disability, why can he be an executioner, but not himself?

"Noxus is not as strict as Demacia, nor as long as the Freljord, nor as glorious as Shurima, nor even as proud of its strength as Ionia. But he is the best soil for talented people." Ryan recounted calmly.

Seraphine interjected at the right moment and asked:

"Teacher, isn't this place not as good as it is now?"

"It's not as good as it is now, but only Noxus can quickly become as good as it is now. As long as you have talent and strength, there will be countless people in the empire willing to follow you, willing to go and see what the empire you lead will look like." Ryan smiled.

Overthrowing a ruler in Noxus is not at all the same difficulty level as overthrowing a ruler in Demacia.

It would be even more difficult to establish a new unified regime in the fragmented regions of Ionia.

"This is the law of strength of the empire. It has been a code of thousands of years since the founding of the country." Fokker added with emotion, "As long as there is strength, even if all the rulers of the empire are overthrown, it will be supported by most people. ."

Noxus is hell for the faint of heart or the unmotivated.

But for those who want to get stronger, Noxus is heaven.

"The chat time is over, today's protagonist is here." Ryan leaned back in the chair and said in a relaxed tone.

In the arena below, the battle between the two gladiators had just ended.

As the iron fences on both sides of the arena slowly rose with the sound of steel friction, two figures with low stature came into the eyes of all the audience.

They took firm steps, each walked out of the door on one side, and stood still until the two sides were about 10 meters apart.

"Wow!"

Since the two came out, the atmosphere in the arena suddenly heated up.

"Time Assassin!!! Defeat your opponent!"

"Runaway girl! Use firepower to pour out the opponent!"

"Time Assassin..."

"The runaway girl..."

"..."

The audience started shouting and cheering for the gladiator they supported, hoping that he or she could still win this match and maintain their winning streak.

Fokker was afraid that several big figures would not understand the ace gladiator who appeared, and added in a timely manner:

"Ike, the Time Assassin, from Zaun. Now a student of the Hextech Department, he has won 70 games in a row, and he is not far from the Yum Gladiator.

"The weapon in Ike's hand is called the Time Pointer, and it's a hex weapon, the work of Master Viktor. It can spread a wonderful time field around it, speeding itself up and slowing the opponent down. So every time he ends The battles are fast, and they rely on hitting the opponent's vitals to win, hence the name... Time Assassin."

"The runaway girl Jinx, also from Zaan, is now a war student in charge of the Executioner. She has won 50 games. At the beginning, she was not used to the battle of the arena. Although she was a gunner, she won the duel. Most of them are close battles. At the beginning, she won and lost, so she was not very strong.

"But it didn't take long for her to get used to it quickly. Both her body and her style of play were improving rapidly, her gun skills and combat experience were advancing by leaps and bounds. Now she has nearly 30 consecutive victories. Because of her deadly style of play Coupled with the crazy catharsis, I got the name of the runaway girl."

"These two are pretty strong."

With interest in his eyes, Ezreal suddenly shouted down:

"Oh, runaway girl, come on, blow up the assassins!"

He hadn't forgotten the hatred that Ike had for catching him at the time. Although the guy who saw the victory had a great advantage, it didn't prevent him from having certain expectations.

Hearing the familiar voice, Ike frowned and glanced up high, and was surprised to find several people on the high platform.

Most of them were familiar to him, people he had met in Zaun.

He made a salute towards the high platform to Ryan, who was sitting in the center.

After following Victor, he also slowly learned that...

Zaun has the current appearance, and it is inseparable from Ryan's support and help. Even Victor was directed by Ryan to return to Zaun.

In other words, Ryan was their Zaun's benefactor.

For Li Baotao, they are also willing to sacrifice for the empire and him unconditionally. This is

Zaun's way of retribution.

"Ike, get ready. We haven't competed for a long time." Jinx was carrying a machine gun not far away, his face excited.

"I don't want to fight you."

Ike frowned slightly, the last thing he wanted to meet in the arena was Jinx. It's not that the opponent is very strong, but that he doesn't want to shoot at them.

We're all from Zaun...

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

With the cheers getting louder and louder, there was also a strong and rhythmic sound of gongs and drums from the arena.

This foreshadows...

The gladiatorial fight begins!

"Ike, I won't show mercy!"

Hearing the sound of gongs and drums, Jinx felt his blood boil, raised his machine gun and fired at Ike.

She loves it here, loves this place where she can do whatever she wants.

As long as she is strong enough, no matter what she does, she can welcome a cheering voice.

If you do well, you will be praised, and even if things are messed up, as long as you try your best to show your strength, everyone will give the warmest applause and encouragement.

Just like when she first came, she lost some self-doubt, and even remembered her poor past.

But the applause and cheers of the Noxians after the battle had cheered her up again, only because she had put up a good duel, fought without cowardice to the end, and beat her opponent before she lost.

She likes it here, and people here will never come and tell her such nonsense as "Boom, next time".

Ding! Ding! Ding! !

The crisp notes of the bullet casings falling to the ground formed a symphony, the machine gun spewed fire, and the bullets poured mercilessly and quickly shot towards Ike.

Facing the dense barrage, Ike still looked calm and stared intently in front of him.

"time..."

He whispered two words in his mouth, and a blue light burst out from the weapon in his hand like an hour hand, covering the entire field to form a hemisphere.

Bullets... got slower.

The wind...nearly stopped.

"Shh!"

At that moment, Ike moved.

The bullets were still pouring, but in the eyes of all the audience, they became slower than arrows.

Ike walked through the hail of bullets, and the hour hand in his hand kept beating out, pulling away the bullets whose kinetic energy had subsided.

He faced the bullet storm, and the distance between him and Jinx kept getting closer.

"Time magic?"

Syndra watched the battle with a touch of interest in her eyes.

"Ike has a talent for time, but limited to age and education, this ability has not been well used." Ryan said flatly.

If Ike could have a good time magic teacher, his current strength would not be so weak.

It's a pity that there are too few people like that in Runeterra, and even he has only heard of it in rumors.

"Shh!"

Ike's figure almost turned into a blue light, and he quickly approached his opponent.

Jinx seemed to have known for a long time that it was going to happen, grinning wildly.

Click! Click! click!

The sound of the mechanical box opening and closing came from her, and the three tin cans shook off her.

Seeing this scene, Ike's color suddenly changed, but it was too late for him to make any moves at this moment.

Jinx had no intention of retreating. Although she was much slower than Ike in the force field, she still turned the sturdy barrel of the machine gun horizontally, blocking Ike's attack abruptly.

With the help of the force from the barrel, she threw it backwards.

Just as she was in the air, three iron cans roared at the same time, and the explosion of fire swept the entire area.

Seeing the grand fire engulfing the arena, most of the Noxian audience stood up, venting their emotions with excitement and eagerness.

"Noxus!!!"

"Gladiator! Gladiator!"

"Runaway Girl!!!"

Shouts and explosions echoed in the arena at the same time, and everyone's blood was running high.

The flames dissipated, Jinx quickly climbed up from the ground, and switched the machine gun to the shell form without stopping.

She was taught by Viktor himself for a few days, and the weapon in her hand could be regarded as a finished Hex weapon.

She can switch between machine guns and rocket launchers at will, almost meeting all her combat needs.

"Buzz!"

Jinx excitedly took a long note and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

Thick smoke billowed from the tail of the bazooka, and blasted straight towards the place where the fire had not subsided.

Boom!

The rocket hit the ground, and there was another loud noise, and even the entire arena began to shake slightly.

The time barrier that was just released was like raindrops, and ripples appeared, almost broken.

But even in the end, that layer of shimmering barrier was not broken...

"cut..."

Seeing such a scene, Jinx pouted and took a few steps back, quickly exiting the enchanted area.

In the opponent's home battle, she has no chance of winning.

"This attack is really cruel."

The firelight dissipated, Ike smiled and twisted his stout arm, and he was actually unscathed.

looks like.

It's just that the Hex gemstone on the pointer in his hand seems to be weaker than the previous light.

"Why is it okay to attack him just now?" Ezreal couldn't help but said on the high platform.

"The power of magic, Ike used that weapon to rewind time." Seraphine said casually.

Compared with before, her knowledge reserve has been able to support her to understand the battle.

At least you don't have to rely entirely on listening to your heart.

"Looking back in time? Is it possible to go back in time?" Ezreal widened his eyes.

"That weapon is not that strong." Seraphine guessed, "It should be the weapon that recorded its state a few seconds ago, and then when it is cast, the weapon will return the body to the same state as when the node was recorded. "

"This ability is really good, it is the gospel of explorers." Ezreal couldn't help but said.

He quickly figured out what that weapon was for...helping him avoid the dangers of many expeditions.

Ezreal's burning gaze was fixed on Ike's weapon.

Since the other party stole his armguard, then when he is strong, it is not too much to play with the other party's weapon...

When communicating on the high platform, the audience made a passionate noise again, and the battle below started again.

"I knew it wasn't that easy to beat you, but I'm sure to win. Wow ha ha ha ha!!!"

Jinx's frantic face was full of joy. She pulled the trigger in her hand again and again, and rockets slammed into the Time Barrier.

Just like fireworks blooming, the cannonballs bloomed with perfect sparks.

The sound of rockets flying and exploding sounded one after another, like an exciting symphony, playing a beautiful and noisy melody.
