Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Chapter 436 【0432】 Vault Guardian

Although Lacus was eager to pack up the supplies and gather the manpower and set out immediately, there was at least half a month of preparation time between the imperial meeting and the awarding ceremony.

There is no way, the earl of Laxana is almost the highest title added to Demacia in the past fifty years - Demacia has not held a large-scale investiture ceremony for too long, and now the kingdom needs such a ceremony Come inspire people!

Even the nobles who didn't care much about the lives of the common people had to restrain themselves a little after the demon-stained riots and took this opportunity to paint a picture of the common people.

"As long as you have the ability, you can jump from a commoner to a count."

Although this statement is somewhat nonsense in Demacia, it is not a lie.

After all, even though Lux is the little princess of the Crownguard family, in theory, she is still just a commoner.

However, her "civilian" and the "civilian" of the people of Demacia are not the same concept at all.

In short, Lux's investiture ceremony is destined to be a grand event in the capital. At that time, countless people will take to the streets to witness the birth of a countess in the grand square and "understand the whole story of the previous battle."

Because after the investiture ceremony, she was leaving the capital and the Crownguard Manor again, Lux had been accompanying her mother during this time. Ogesha was naturally reluctant to leave her daughter when she saw that she was about to be separated from her daughter again.

Although Lux said that there is a "fast track" from Forsbarrow to Xiong, Ogesha still couldn't let go of Lux.

Ogesha doesn't understand magic and doesn't know how fast this "fast lane" is, but as the matron of the Crownguard family, she knows very well how much energy the head of the family needs to put in, not to mention that Lux's fiefdom is on the border. !

Every winter, the Freljord barbarians will choose to go south. By then, Demacia's northern borders will almost be under martial law. At that time, Lux will stay in the fiefdom no matter what, and be prepared.

Therefore, from today on, every New Year and every birthday in the future, Lux needs to stay in Forsbarrow.

Even though she has become a mountaineer, in Ogesha's eyes, Lux is her most beloved little daughter!

In addition, in order to "attract sponsorship" for Fosbairo, Lux also needed to participate in various banquets and dances as a noble model, so during the period before the knighting ceremony, she really could not devote herself to more specific tasks. in the midst of work.

Compared with Lux, Ino is very busy.

After handing over the incarnation of Lund's old god to Kalya, Ino seemed to have become Lux's secretary again, helping Lux travel back and forth in the capital.

Although Ino was also a climber, she did not stand out like Lux in the end - in fact, only a few people knew about her identity as a climber, and the noble council and Jarvan III did not even know that there was such a thing. Person No. 1 has endured the punishment of stone crown.

This status of being hidden in the shadows gives Ino great convenience. Coupled with the Silent person's connections, she can freely handle many things that Lux cannot come forward for.

What, you ask why the Silent Man provided Ino with great convenience?

Because she is now one of the silent people!

After discussing with Lux, Sona and Kalya, Ino accepted Grandma Ling's invitation and became the elder of the Silent People in her place.

According to Grandma Ling, when the Silent People invited her to join, they did consider asking her to take on some of the responsibilities of the Silent People's organization, but it also represented the Silent People's full support for the construction of Forsbarrow.

Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, Ino chose to join the Silent People.

At present, most of the things that Ino needs to deal with are about magic and the devil-infected people - after some arrests, all the evil-infected people who escaped from prison were caught, except for a very few lucky ones. return.

After once seeing hope of freedom, but finally being caught back in prison, each of these demon-stained people looked very irritable, and what Ino had to do was to first help Lux calm these irritable demon-stricken people.

In addition, according to Grandma Ling, due to the turmoil in the capital of Demacia, a guardian is likely to find the Silent Man to question, and as one of the planners of this operation, Ino needs to face the guardian Your inquiry.

Ino tried to ask Grandma Ling about the identity of the guardian and the content of the question, but unfortunately, Grandma Ling didn't know either.

"Your Excellency, the Guardian, left very little information within the Silent People. It seems to be intentional." The kind-hearted old lady after retirement explained with a smile, "But don't worry too much, Your Excellency the Guardian only cares about the secrets." Thanks to your blessing, I didn’t really use its power, so this inquiry should be a routine one.”

"Then when will this questioning start?" Ino couldn't help but frowned when he heard this, "I've been very busy recently, and Lux ​​will be knighted soon, and then I will leave Xiongdu to be with her. Let’s go to Forsbarrow together!”

"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious!" Grandma Ling said with a smile, "Although Lord Guardian is very busy, he also moves very quickly. Believe me, he will definitely come to Xiongdu before the award ceremony..."

……………………

The legendary guardian didn't keep Ino waiting for long.

Three days later, when Ino was about to leave after finishing her tour and comfort in the Forbidden Demon Prison, a messenger dressed as a Silent Man hurriedly found her.

"Senior Ino." After the other party saw Ino, he took off the hood on his head. It was the silent man who was "tortured" by Ino. "The Elders will send me to inform you that the Guardian has arrived. "

The silent man looked excited and had a bit of envy in his tone. He seemed to want to go and see the Lord Guardian just like Ino.

Keenly aware of his attitude, Ino felt a little strange - unfortunately today, Lux needed to attend a party, and Kalya was going to "on-site guidance". There was no one around Ino who could discuss it, so she could only press her heart. Confused, he nodded and ran towards the secret place of the Silent Man.

When Ino came here, all the elders were waiting outside the secret place, and retired Grandma Ling was also among the crowd.

"Go, go quickly." The old woman urged with a smile, "After being recognized by the guardian, you can truly obtain the authority of the elder!"

Ino nodded when he heard this, and then looked at the door of the secret room.

On the door of the secret room that once seemed so impeccable that Ino could not find the flow of magic power, a mysterious sigil was shining with azure light, as if it was an activated keyhole.

Ino stepped forward, stretched out his left arm, and pressed the palm of his left hand on the mysterious talisman in the center of the secret room door.

As the magic flowed and injected smoothly, Ino's figure suddenly disappeared, and the next moment he seemed to have penetrated the space and came to a lush forest!

Shaking his head to dispel the discomfort caused by the teleportation, Ino narrowed his eyes slightly and took stock of the surrounding environment.

It looks like a forest here, but it's not ordinary trees, but various rune trees. Different from the tree species in Zaun, the rune trees here are taller and more upright, and they seem to have the ability to absorb magic. Also stronger.

Ino looked at these trees with interest, feeling the tide of magic rippling around him, and soon had a vague guess about his location.

"You're here." Just as Ino was observing these rune trees and feeling the wonderful flow of magic here, an old voice sounded, "You are Ino, the new patriarch of the Silent People of Demacia, right? "

"Yes, it's me." Ino turned his head and looked in the direction of the speaker, "Are you the guardian they call you?"

There, beside a tall forbidden magic tree, a hooded figure in a robe was leaning against the tree, sorting out the scroll in his hand. After hearing Ino's question, he quickly rolled it up. He picked up the scroll, put it behind his back, and nodded.

Ino narrowed his eyes slightly.

Whether judging from the identity of the opponent's guardian, or the skin exposed outside the robe, and the magic tattoos on the skin shining with magic aura, he should be a spell caster.

However, what makes Ino unacceptable is that if she only relies on magic vision, she can hardly detect even the slightest flow of the other party's magic power - he is clearly standing there, but it seems that he does not exist there at all, and the tide of magic power flows from his It flows around you, but it doesn't make even the slightest wave.

Is this really something a spellcaster can do?

"Let's make a long story short." The guardian did not take off his hood, but sped up his speech, "According to the ancient contract, since you have been recognized by the Silent Man and become an elder, you have the right to obtain the source of communication magic. Partial authority, but before that, I need to conduct a small test on you to prevent you from getting lost in power——"

"If the permission you are talking about is the permission to use the power of world runes, then we can stop." Ino interrupted the other party's words, "I have no interest in world runes, and I don't want to be tainted with such dangerous power. .”

Ino's words seemed to surprise the guardian. He took off his hood and looked at Ino carefully.

When his eyes fell on Ino, Ino had a subtle feeling, as if she was holding Kalya, which made her frown and mobilize her magic power. Confronted the other party's exploration.

"The world runes are extremely dangerous, you are right." The guardian looked calm, but his tone was not as calm as before, "However, the power in you is also very dangerous, whether it is ice blood or celestial energy, you want to control it It’s very difficult to get up.”

"So I'm still studying magic theory." Ino replied equally calmly, "Grandma Ling said you would ask about the turmoil in Xiongdu, please ask and answer quickly, I have something else to do - and you are also very busy, right? "

"What an interesting little girl." The old guardian's face remained calm, "How do you know I'm busy?"

"The cloak on your body has a strong Shurima style, and there is gravel in the pocket of the cloak. If I guess correctly, you have just teleported from Shurima." Ino replied, "And It should be Western Shurima.”

"The answer is correct." The guardian nodded, "Then guess again, where is this place?"

"This is Renwall." Ino quickly replied, "Renwall's Rune Tree Cultivation Laboratory."

"Do you still know about Renwall's Rune Tree Cultivation Laboratory?" This time, the guardian's calm face finally showed a bit of surprise, "Although this is not Renwall, this still surprises me... You obviously Why do you know about Renwall's laboratory if you have the blood of ice?"

"Everyone has their own secret." Ino also found a big tree and leaned on it, "So, it's useless for me to pretend to be mysterious - if you want to get any news from me, you have to News that gives equal weight.”

"It's a pity that my curiosity has been exhausted over the long years." The guardian shook his head after hearing this, "Since you are unwilling to accept the power of the world runes, then I will send you back immediately..."

Ino was a little surprised by the other party's indifference. She originally thought of using her words to arouse the guardian's curiosity and doubts, and then collect more information about the other party through message exchange.

In Ino's opinion, as long as he can collect effective information, Kalya can find out the details of this guy in minutes!

But what she never expected was that the guardian didn't seem to have the slightest curiosity of a mage. It was just business. If she said she didn't need the power of the world runes, he would send her back!

Ino, who was a little unwilling, thought about it and quickly thought of a good way.

"Wait a few minutes," she said with a smile, "wait for me to get some samples of the rune tree."

Ino's original intention was to determine his location through the samples of the rune tree and help Kalya collect as much information as possible.

But she never expected that the moment she said "sample", the guardian who had always been very calm would suddenly become alert.

"You can't touch these rune trees." His tone was serious, and there was even an undisguised warning in it, "I will send you away now, right away!"

Ino raised an eyebrow.

"Get out of here!" A blue arcane light lit up around the guardian, and the next moment, a circular teleportation circle appeared at his feet, "Come here, I'll take you back to Demacia!"

Then, before Ino could make any move, she saw not far behind the guardian, the sky was reflected in a dazzling red.

"Hahahahahahaha!" A wild laugh rang out, causing the originally serious guardian to frown even more. "My dear teacher, you left in such a hurry. Didn't you show poor hospitality to your disciples?"
