Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Kalya's teaching is mainly based on practical experience. Although he specifically tested Thalia's theoretical knowledge level, he did not provide further guidance in this area - theory is boring after all, and Kalja knows very well how to do it. Pique Thalia's interest and prevent her from becoming disgusted.

After all... the little girl is not her nominal student. It would be bad if she talks too boringly and makes people tired of studying.

Moreover, Thalia's own theoretical knowledge level is also quite good, and Aori seems to have passed on many of Shurima's magical achievements.

Judging from the written test results, Thalia's magic learning is systematic. Although there are obvious shortcomings, at least they are not shortcomings. If you want to improve in this aspect, it is really a bit of half the effort with half the effort, so Karl Ya simply increased the amount of training to address her lack of actual combat experience and weak on-the-spot reaction.

Thalia even enjoyed a treatment that even Lux and even Nasus had not received - one-on-one combat training from Kalya.

To be honest, when Kalya started to help Thalia with one-on-one combat training, even Nasus wanted to get over and take a look.

After all, in Shurima, the rumor about "the regent is not good at fighting" can be said to be long-standing and enduring, but almost no one has seen Kalya take action personally. On the one hand, this makes this legend more interesting, and on the other hand, On the one hand, many people swear that "the regent must be very capable of fighting. This legend is just to deceive others and make people take him lightly."

As a Mesozoic member of the Shurima Empire, Nasus had never seen Kalya take action in person. Although Nasus was not a very curious person, he would be somewhat interested in Kalya's combat prowess.

The principal took action personally. Who wouldn't want to see this kind of thing?

Soon, Nasus got his wish. During the one-on-one training with Thalia, he saw Kalya take action.

Then...he still couldn't verify the authenticity of the legend, because Thalia failed a little too quickly, and Kalya seemed to have fallen before she even exerted any force.

"You should learn to hide your spellcasting intentions." After easily binding Thalia with yellow sand, Kalya shook his head helplessly, "Although it looks cool to manipulate the stone with both hands raised, but that can Your intentions are completely exposed to the enemy, and I can easily judge your next plan, prepare in advance, and easily counterattack."

Thalia herself, who was caught in two moves, was a little confused.

In her memory, after she had the ability to weave stones at will, no one could defeat her so easily, not even her teacher, who wanted to counter her spells and defeat her in a head-on battle. , also requires a lot of effort.

But Kalya just used a simple deception. It seemed like he was controlling the gravel to resist the flying rocks he activated, but in fact, he was cunningly controlling the gravel close to him, taking advantage of himself. When he focused on controlling the pumice stone, his feet slipped.

At the moment Thalia staggered, a large amount of yellow sand was like gangrene attached to the bone, completely controlling her calf. As long as Kalya made another gesture, this section of the leg could be torn off directly.

"Get into a fighting position." Kalya looked at Thalia, who seemed to be a little bit unable to recover, and shook her head helplessly, "You haven't even shown any real strength, so you are willing to admit defeat. Already?"

Of course not willingly.

After thinking for a while, Thalia quickly started the second round of fighting.

This time, Thalia cleverly prepared the Pumice Rush first, trying to cut off Kalya's direct attack on her own body in this way, and consciously reduced the range of her spell-casting movements.

Thalia, who was gliding on the stone mantle, seemed to have quickly taken the initiative in the battle. The gravel controlled by Kalya seemed to be no match for the boulder. Several defenses were defeated in a few breaths, and then Thalia Controlling a large number of pumice stones, he attacked Kalya directly, seemingly intending to resolve the battle quickly.

However, just when Thalia thought she was sure of victory, the stone slab under her feet suddenly sank. Before the pumice stone could hit Kalya, the stone slab under her feet fell into the sand pit.

Thalia's body was unbalanced again, and the yellow sand in the bunker unceremoniously scored twice.

"Put all your attention on the battle, but not in the same direction." Letting go of Thalia, Kalya continued, "Always pay attention to the enemy's movements, and you must take advantage when you have an advantage. Be on guard.”

Thalia nodded confusedly again.

Seeing this scene, Nasus already felt a little sad for Thalia.

Nasus could clearly see that Kalya's combat experience was absolutely amazing. Many of his handling methods were similar to those of the Ascended Ones who Nasus was familiar with who had been on the front line all year round. The difference between them is that Kalya not only treats these details as instinct, but also clearly understands the meaning of these instincts.

This kind of combat technique that combines theory and practice can very specifically target Thalia's shortcomings.

And judging from Thalia's current state...her shortcomings may be targeted by Kalya for a long time.

Before these obvious problems are targeted and corrected, I am afraid that Kalya does not need to spend too much effort or show too much power. As long as he has extraordinary magic power, he will be able to suppress the young Thalia to death. .

Things unfolded almost exactly as Nasus predicted.

Every day Kalya fights Thalia three times.

Targeting three fighting habits three times, Kalya could easily find Thalia's problem each time and quickly control her. The whole process can only be described as relaxed and freehand.

Since Kalya has never shown much strength, Thalia is naturally unconvinced by this failure.

So, after every battle, she would spend a long time adjusting herself, and then fight again with Kalya the next day.

During this process, Kalya was very particular. As long as Thalia consciously corrected it, even if she had not completely changed it and still had flaws in this area, Kalya would not pursue a fault and pursue it fiercely.

Anyway, in his eyes, Thalia had a lot of faults.

The movement of casting spells is too large, the direction of attention is single, the lack of awareness of the battlefield environment, the lack of awareness of changing the battlefield environment, the lack of judgment on the enemy's spells, the combat ideas are not clear and clear, the body's reaction is too slow, the combination of spell casting methods is too rigid... …

It is obvious that Thalia is an out-and-out young genius, both in terms of her own magic power and her solid basic knowledge, which can be said to be remarkable, but in front of Kalya, she seems to be an extremely innocent girl. Little sheep will always find various omissions and fall into various traps.

Thalia herself was quite unconvinced by this situation. She insisted that as long as she was more experienced, it would not be difficult to defeat Kalya and gain recognition from the opponent.

But all this in the eyes of Nasus made the Grand Maester of Shurima even more confused.

Are the Prince Regent's fighting methods so... insidious?

Even if it weren't for Kalya being his teacher, Nasus would have even wanted to use "despicable" to describe this fighting method!

Seeing Thalia being bound by the yellow sand again and looking at Kalya angrily, Nasus even remembered what Kalya had said to him when he was in school.

"Soldiers who, deception also."

Now that I think about it, maybe both versions of the legend are true.

Kalya's own magic power is not outstanding.

But he shouldn't be considered a weakling.

……………………

While Kalya worked hard to train Thalia and let her gradually adapt to the high-end game, Shyvana, flying at full speed, finally brought Ino back to Demacia.

Regardless of returning to Forsbarrow, Ino just left a letter to Lux through the intelligence system, then hurriedly activated the silent channel's secret channel and began to contact Ryze.

And Ryze's response speed far exceeded Ino's expectations - in the evening after she activated the rune, Ryze teleported to the Silent Man's new location.

"Is it you?" Ryze was a little surprised when he saw Ino, "Have you activated the rune?"

"I found a world rune." Ino said without any nonsense, "Someone is using it."

Ryze's eyes widened in surprise.

"Where?" The rune guardian obviously couldn't believe it. "There should be no world runes in Demacia..."

"It's not Demacia, it's Shurima." Ino shook his head, "Have you ever heard of the Ascended One?"

Hearing the word Ascended, Ryze finally couldn't help but frown.

"Are you talking about the man-made demigods of the Shurima Empire?" He looked at Ino seriously, "Those proud beings may not appreciate the power of the world's runes."

"Most of them may be, but there are always exceptions." Ino shook his head, "It is Xerath, the traitor among Shuriman people."

Then, Ino briefly told Ryze about Xerath - she skipped the part about Shurima's grudges and just told Nasus and Thalia's description of Xerath.

"A very typical world rune user." After listening to Ino's description, Ryze nodded slightly, "However... the authenticity has yet to be verified."

"There is no doubt about the authenticity." Ino didn't care about Ryze's straightforwardness. "Don't worry, we are not interested in using you. We found you this time mainly for the follow-up processing of the world rune - except you Besides, I’m afraid no one knows where to put these dangerous things.”

"I am responsible for handling the world's runes." Ryze nodded slightly, "But if you hope to use me to achieve certain purposes, you are bound to make a wrong calculation."

"This is not taking advantage." Ino emphasized again, "We are just on the same side."

"It's best that way." Ruiz nodded, "Let's go without further ado."

"wait--"

Before Ino could finish her next sentence, all kinds of runes lit up around her. The next moment, under the leadership of Ryze, Ino once again experienced the feeling of being turned upside down.

Even for her, teleportation was quite uncomfortable. She felt like she was completely crushed and twisted by a powerful force, and she was forced to cross thousands of mountains and rivers in an instant.

"Why can't you wait a moment?" When Ino recovered from the discomfort caused by the teleportation, she looked at the surrounding situation with an expression on the verge of tears. "If I guessed correctly, this should be Kalamanda?”

"It seems you have been here before." Ruiz nodded slightly, "What? I thought I heard you calling a stop just now?"

"Yes, we have another passenger!"

"Didn't you say that the people who want to defeat Xerath are already waiting on the other side of the desert?"

"But we have to at least cross the desert, right?" Ino sighed helplessly, "Or do you plan to take me with you and teleport there?"

"why not?"

"Don't fool me, the teleportation spell has clear requirements for the destination!" Ino shook his head, "Maybe you have located many places, but our end point is definitely not within your location."

"Don't worry about this." Ruiz shook his head, "From here to the Marrow Seal Market, just go around a few times."

"You also have a location at the Marrow Seal Market?"

"Don't underestimate a mage who is used to traveling."

In this way, Ino's painful journey of teleportation began.

In order to ensure the stability of the teleportation and to save mana as much as possible, Ryze's teleportation from Kalamanda to the Marrow Seal Market was carried out in stages.

Kalamanda, Kukselon, Nerimajie, Garden City, Zerima, Marrow Seal Bazaar.

After four transfers, it took Ryze less than a day to transport himself and Ino from Kalamanda to the Marrow Seal Market, which was extremely fast.

As a price, starting from the third teleportation, everyone in Ino became numb.

The strong sense of compression caused by the movement of space gave her an unreal feeling about her surroundings. This feeling of imbalance and dizziness was not comparable to motion sickness or seasickness. After the teleportation at the Marrow Seal Market, , Ino was even a little unsteady on his feet.

As the host of the teleportation, Ryze's condition was not much better than hers. Although the magic tattoo obscured his face, judging from the dimness of those talismans, Ryze's condition was not considered good.

"I need to take a rest." After letting out a long breath, Ryze sat on the floor in a corner at the edge of the Marrow Seal Market. "The same goes for you - I don't recommend you to find anyone else, this is about us. fragile trust."

"Thank you for your honesty." Ino heard this with a wry smile on his face, "But it's a pity that we need to take better action immediately. I'm afraid the market managers here are not friendly..."

"It doesn't matter." Ruiz shook his head gently, "I am also a big customer here. They shouldn't mind me taking a rest here."

Then, under Ino's stunned eyes, the market managers took the initiative to find Ritz, handed over free food and water, and invited Ritz to take a rest in the hotel.

Extra in the middle of the night.
