Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Facing Ritz's thoughtful gaze, Ino blinked, his expression a little confused.

What are you looking at me for?

Look at the world runes in your hand!

"Miss Ino." Although he was not very convinced of Ino's attitude, Ryze still planned to give it a try. "With the frequent appearance of runes in the world, I hope to have a reliable disciple who can learn magic from me and help me get lost one day." Time, help me end the madness.”

Ino was a little confused.

"Are you talking about me?" She stretched out her finger and pointed at her face, "I have a teacher!"

"I know, you said it before." Ryze said with a slightly helpless tone, "But for the safety of Runeterra -"

The rune guardian prepared some words, but looking at Ino, he finally closed his mouth.

Although this little girl is not very old, she is already a veteran of the Silent people, and may still have a high status in Demacia. It is indeed impossible to abandon everything and follow her throughout the runelands to find dangerous places. world runes.

Realizing this, Ryze's face inevitably showed a hint of bitterness.

In fact, when Ryze accepted Brand as his apprentice, in addition to his good spell talent and the possibility of inheriting his mantle, a very important point was that Brand had no worries.

Ryze, who has been working for the World Runes for thousands of years, knows very well that guarding the World Runes is destined to be a lonely road. As long as he makes a choice, he is destined to always walk on the road.

Rain or shine, never stop.

Moreover, once someone is contaminated by the power of the world runes and is unwilling to let go, even if they are friends, Ryze cannot show mercy - this kind of thing is too cruel for a person who cares about him. In Ryze's view, only Only those who have no worries can keep up with their own pace.

Apparently, Ino wasn't.

After a while, Ruiz could only shake his head and force out a bitter smile.

"Okay, you can leave." The Rune Guardian did not continue on this topic, but clapped his hands on the ground again, "Miss Ino, see you next time!"

The next moment, the azure arcane light lit up, and Ryze's figure, connected with the world rune, gradually turned into a shadow and disappeared into the secret room, leaving only the unknown figure. Ino looked at the place where the arcane light dimmed in confusion.

After a long time, she shook her head helplessly, created an ice ball at random, attached the shining star to it, and carried it back the way it came.

……………………

When Ino walked out of the secret room, a group of elders from the Silent People quickly surrounded him.

"What happened in there?"

"What's wrong, Lord Guardian?"

"Why can't I feel the power of the elders?"

"Too bad, was there an accident?"

"..."

"..."

Although these silent elders are usually calm, they were still somewhat panicked after losing the blessing of the echo power of the world runes.

Unlike Grandma Ling, who walked on the edge of life and death, it is difficult for ordinary people to be open-minded about the gains and losses of power.

"Things are more complicated." In desperation, Ino could only give a vague answer, "The world runes in the secret room are getting out of control. For safety reasons, the Guardian needs to move them. Perform multiple seals elsewhere..."

Ino's explanation surprised the silent elders. Then, a few of the more impatient guys couldn't help but raise their tone and questioned what Ino said.

These people who had lost their power swarmed forward, and it seemed that Ino would never give up until he made everything clear.

Seeing this scene, Ino couldn't help but frown slightly.

Are these silent elders so excited? Is it directed at themselves, or is it because they have lost the power of the world runes?

If it's just the former, the problem won't be difficult to solve; but if it's the latter, then I'm afraid the Silent Man will have to spend some effort to sort it out.

Now Ino knows how dangerous it is to be obsessed with the power of world runes!

If these silent people elders are like Grandma Ling, and their current excitement is a withdrawal reaction, then things will be in trouble!

Just when Ino's expression gradually became dangerous, Grandma Ling, who had been silent before, finally stood up.

"What are you all screaming about?" Although the old lady lost her magic power, she still had some power for the Silent People. She silenced the noisy crowd with just one voice, "Why, without the power of the elders, you will survive. Can’t go on? I don’t even have the magic power anymore, so don’t I still have to be busy and running around every day?”

For many years, Grandma Ling, who has been the veteran of the Silent People, was always able to calm down the situation. When she opened her mouth, the situation was finally under control.

"Everyone knows what is stored in the secrets." The old lady continued, "And what the organization has gone through and those who can become elders should also know - we are the guardians of Demacia. , without this power, will we give up on fulfilling our obligations?"

Many elders looked at me and I looked at you, but most of them were speechless.

After all, the World Rune has been transferred away by Ryze. Even if there are people who are tempted by the power of the World Rune like Grandma Ling before, they should gradually wake up now.

"It's not that we can't accept losing the power of the elders." Someone stood up and explained, "It's just that we have to make things clear - I don't know where the guardian has gone. Miss Ino is the only one talking about the world talisman with white teeth. The text was transferred away..."

"What, you don't believe it?" Grandma Ling narrowed her eyes and her expression became quite dangerous, "Permes, you snow bunny bastard! Are you qualified to question Miss Ino's words?"

"Me!" The middle-aged male mage named Permes turned red instantly, "Grandma Ling, don't be so rude -"

"Am I rude? You are rude!" Grandma Ling's gray-white eyebrows were completely raised, and her speech speed was obviously faster, "When I promoted you to be a senator in an unusual way, but when you accepted the power of the senator, you turned out to be a snow bunny. I almost couldn’t withstand the temptation of strength and crashed to death on the door of the secret room!”

Such an act of rehashing old scores made Permes' entire face turn the color of pig's liver in an instant. However, what Grandma Ling said was true. Not all Silent people can withstand the temptation of the power of the world's runes after becoming elders.

"If I hadn't helped you, you would have been doomed long ago!" Grandma Ling's mouth was like a machine gun, and she spoke faster and faster, "With your little magic control, you still want to see the world's runes with your own eyes? Are you afraid of it? Take one look and smash your head against the wall again? This time I don’t have any magic power, so I can’t save you!”

Permes wanted to say that he was no longer what he used to be, but in the face of everyone's subtle looks, he could only grit his teeth and turn his back.

Ino's face was expressionless, but secretly laughing in his heart - this method of exposing dark history is indeed a tried and tested method for veterans.

No wonder Teacher Kalya always likes tugging little pigtails!

Well, I must be careful in my words and deeds in the future!

"I was so tempted by power that I almost couldn't hold it back. If it weren't for Miss Ino's help, I would have become a slave to power." Seeing the other party shut up, Grandma Ling finally gave up on this snow bunny, "Every one of you Are these people still excited? Why, do you really want to take a look at the World Rune, and then all of them become slaves of the World Rune and be eliminated one by one by the guardians? "

When it came to being "cleaned up one by one by the guardians", everyone finally calmed down completely, fell silent one by one, and finally didn't say a word.

"Change has come. At this time, it is a good thing to set off lightly without the world runes, but you are acting like this one by one. Have you really forgotten the mission of the Silent People?" The old lady still refused, "The Silent People Our mission is to use magic to protect Demacia! Not to pursue powerful magic!"

"..."

"Okay, don't hang around here and pretend to be snow chickens." The old lady waved her hand, "Anyway, there are no world runes under the Xiongdu underground, and the Forbidden Demon Prison is free. After that, let's pack our bags together and follow Count Laxana, forget about going to the north!"

Hearing what Grandma Ling said, many silent people spoke up again. Without exception, they said, "Those who have a family and a business should not go to Northern Xinjiang again." A vicious incident like a murder case" and so on.

Looking at the performance of these silent people elders, and thinking of her previous experience of almost becoming a slave of power, Grandma Ling did not force her in the end. She just said that she wanted to go to Northern Xinjiang, not only to use her remaining energy, but also to return to her roots. If anyone is interested, , or with yourself.

However, no one spoke, and no one wanted to leave with Grandma Ling.

In silence, Ino once again had a new understanding of "starting from scratch" that Kalya said.

When it comes to the overall quality of mages, the Silent People—especially the Silent People elders—are nowhere near as high as the demon-infected ones in the Forbidden Demon Prison.

But for Ino, she would rather have dissatisfied demon-possessed people than accept these silent people with their own thoughts.

They have become accustomed to their current life, accustomed to a life where they can legally use magic but others cannot. In a sense, although these people are also mages, they are the same privileges of Demacia as the nobles of the Noble Council. By.

Thinking of his visits to the Forbidden Demon Prison and his interactions with many demon-contaminated people in the past few days, Ino finally had a clearer understanding of Demacia's magic and the demon-contaminated people.

In this magic-forbidden country, all mages who can use magic are privileged, without exception.

After thinking about this clearly, Ino's eyes when looking at the many silent people elders became as peaceful as when Lux looked at the noble council. For her, the only thing worth caring about among the silent people was the ones left. Their history and magic are passed down.

A little disappointed, Grandma Ling turned and left the door of the secret room.

Ino also smiled and left with her.

In front of the empty secret room door, there were only a few silent elders left. You looked at me, I looked at you, and they were all silent.
