Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

When he heard the name "Legacy of Kalya", Kalya was stunned.

Time seemed to have stopped at this moment. Kalya's forward steps suddenly stopped. After a few breaths, he raised his head and looked at Kieran.

Nodding, an intriguing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "The Legacy of Kalya, what a good name."

Kieran looked at Kalya and felt that this smile was very familiar - he clearly remembered that when Nezuk decided on the name "Legacy of Kalya", he also had the same interesting smile on his face. smile.

At this moment, the two smiling faces seemed to have crossed the boundaries of time and space and overlapped perfectly.

This scene made Kieran quite puzzled. After blinking, he seemed to finally realize that there was some kind of magical tacit understanding between the master and disciple that he didn't know yet.

The seemingly ordinary name "Legacy of Kalya" is the key word that triggers this tacit understanding.

In a sense, Kieran's guess was correct.

According to normal logic, these devices that have protected Ixtar for thousands of years were named after Kalya by Nezuk. This is undoubtedly the greatest recognition of Kalya.

But in fact, when Nezuk decided on this name, the smile on his face was not due to Kalya's achievements and inspiration.

But countless years ago, when I was still a student, there was an opening ceremony that no one could remember.

Just like when Kalya heard the name, the first thing he thought of was a certain foolish young man who spoke so brazenly after entering the institute for the first time.

……………………

In the Shurima Empire, all Ascended people believe that Nezuk is the person most like Kalya.

Although at first glance, Kalya is a smiling and elegant nobleman who always makes people feel close to him; while Nezuk is a black man who is used to frowning and has an unattractive appearance. The thin guy, you can tell at a glance that he is not an easy person to get along with.

But after actual contact and working together for a long time, everyone has to admit that many times Nezuk is really more Kalya than Kalya.

Even the person who has the most frequent contact with Kalya on a daily basis is Azhi.

Even if the person closest to Kalya is Aatrox.

Even though the person who accompanied Kalya from beginning to end was Setaka.

Anyone who knows Karya and Nezuk at the same time will clearly find that there is something exactly the same between these two people hidden in their bones.

It was an indescribable kind of rationality and alienation, a kind of indifference and ruthlessness that seemed to penetrate into the bone marrow.

It seems that the entire Shurima, and even the entire Runeterra, is just a game and a war chess to them; it seems that no matter how many people there are, no matter how glorious the city is, it is just a bargaining chip and a chess piece for them. .

It is normal for Kalya, who holds a high position, to have this kind of temperament - anyone who knows history knows that since the days of the Shurima tribe, Kalya has been accustomed to carrying the fate of countless people on his shoulders. Every decision made will affect the subsequent fate of countless people.

But Nezuk, a guy from a poor background, can always think about problems from a macro perspective, and it seems that reason is always the driving force guiding him forward.

Nezuk had always been very knowledgeable about other people's doubts, but he didn't bother to answer them.

Even though many people maliciously speculate about him and think that he is so ruthless, it is essentially because he has no worries, because he comes from a humble background and values ​​power, and because he is obsessed with fame and wealth.

The sparrow knows the ambition of the swan!

Nezuk, who came from Ixtal, was completely different from most of his classmates.

The sun disk gives the Shurima Empire nearly infinite energy, but this precious energy is rarely used by Ixtal. Compared with the Shuriman people, the political power of the Ixtar people It is not complete, and the level of urban construction in Ixtar is not comparable to that of the large cities in the Shurima Empire.

Therefore, even in theory, Ixtar is part of the Shurima Empire. It was called the [Ixtar Special Zone] at the time, but in the Shurima Empire, the Ixtar people are out-and-out second-class citizens. .

Only in terms of education, and at Kalya's insistence, can Ixtal's students be eligible for the unified examinations in other regions of the Shurima Empire.

Of course, qualifications are qualifications.

Even if Ixtar and other regions in the Shurima Empire rely on the same exam and test the same content to enter Shurima University, considering the poor educational resources in Ixtar, the results of the fair exam will not be fair. Not that fair.

However, even among the second-class citizens, Nezuk's origin was the worst - when he was just one full moon, fishermen found him in a wooden basin floating on the Python River. Nezuk's cry was already weak, as if he would die in the next moment.

The fisherman who discovered Nezuk already had a son and a daughter and had no money left to feed another little boy, so he was sent to a local orphanage after being fed a bowl of fish soup.

An orphan whose parents have died naturally has a very difficult start.

Ixtal's orphanage can only ensure that children will not starve to death. Even if theoretically, Ixtal should promote compulsory education in accordance with Shurima's policies, compulsory education will not fall on Nezuk. .

It was under such an environment that Nezuk awakened his magical talent at the age of three, and had been hiding it from everyone for ten years.

Nezuk's childhood was both happy and unhappy.

The so-called happiness comes from Grandma's fairness and kindness. She treats all children as her own children and treats everyone as fairly as possible. Under her discipline, although conflicts occasionally break out in the entire orphanage, But overall the atmosphere is very warm.

The so-called unhappiness is because the orphanage's only income is the donations from nearby villagers. At this time when everyone is not living a very good life, the funds that grandma can raise are really pitiful.

A clever woman cannot make a meal without rice. No matter how frugal her mother is and how sensible her children are, hunger still runs through Nezuk's childhood. In order to fill his stomach, Nezuk's recipes often include things that ordinary people can't see.

From fat, big bugs to noisy marsh frogs.

Sometimes, Nezuk would also share his "harvest" with others, but Mammy had always maintained a tacit attitude towards this.

She seemed to have noticed something, but chose to remain silent.

At the age of thirteen, Nezuk, who gradually began to have the ability to master "special powers", had the idea of ​​leaving the orphanage for the first time.

Because the Python River flooded this year, the orphanage received no donations for almost a whole year. Even if Nezuk went out to work every night, the newly sent children would still cry hungry.

This was the first time Nezuk realized that it seemed that if he stayed in the orphanage, he would never be able to solve the problem.

So, he left everything he could, climbed over the broken wooden fence, followed the direction of the Mang River Basin, bid farewell to his childhood, and entered the world.

……………………

Traveling from east to west, Nezuk was doing odd jobs and hard work to make a living while observing the world.

Many people were surprised that the thin Nezuk could carry heavy goods so easily. They never imagined that Nezuk did not rely on his own body to move goods, but his magic power.

Yes, Nezuk's talent lies in manipulating gravity.

Impressed by some of his reckless attempts as a child, Nezuk did not directly reveal his talent, but instead looked for ways to further control this power.

And along the way, Nezuk saw a broader and more prosperous world.

Although the Python River was overflowing, the prosperity of the cities along the river had not been compromised at all, and Nezuk was dazzled by all kinds of consumer goods that he had never seen before.

At the beginning, Nezuk was extremely confused. Compared with the bustling city, his childhood was so pale and barren.

The difference from the orphanage is that if you want to get everything in this prosperity, you have to pay a price.

Perhaps because of his extraordinary talent, Nezuk quickly gained his own understanding of human nature, but even if he understood some things, people would still be confused. In this bustling world, Nezuk suddenly couldn't see the road in front of him. .

He would send the money he saved back to the orphanage, but he was worried that he couldn't save much money.

It seemed like all the ways he knew of how to save a lot of money quickly, Mammy told him not to do it.

Until by chance, he met the Demon Marsh Frog again.

It was a restaurant that Nezuk couldn't even afford to pay for a month, and they introduced a brand new dish - the Demon Swamp Frog.

On the sign, Nezuk once again saw the "old friend" who had comforted his internal organs in countless sleepless nights. This time, its value was different from before.

Looking blankly at the Demon Swamp Frog on the sign, Nezuk initially thought it was ridiculous, but besides being ridiculous, he also had some understanding.

A marsh frog has always been a marsh frog.

But in the pond behind the orphanage, it can only be a snack for children to fill their bellies; but in this big hotel, its value has doubled, and it is a delicacy worth spending a lot of money on.

At this moment, the sign fluttering in the wind seemed to have become a mirror. Nezuk looked at the Demon Swamp Frog as if he saw himself.

Therefore, Nezuk, who had been wandering in the world for many years, decided to find his own, higher platform.

The first platform Nezuk found was the dragon training conference held in Ixtal.

Although Kalya had already signed a dragon covenant at that time, if he wanted to use the dragon for his own use, he still couldn't skip the steps of training the dragon.

Therefore, every time there is a dragon taming conference, the Ixtar people will select the strongest warriors to participate in the dragon taming competition.

Ixtar will prepare a large number of different types of elemental dragons and elemental dragons for them, allowing the contestants to tame them from scratch, and then complete a series of tasks with the dragons. The winner in the end will be the champion of the Dragon Taming Conference.

Once they become the champion of the Dragon Taming Conference, the winner will get an opportunity to go to Shurima City and study at Shurima University.

What Nezuk wanted was this opportunity.

At that Dragon Training Conference, with the appearance of Nezuk, countless dog gamblers who took the opportunity to bet on the game lost their fortunes.

Until they all jumped into the Python River to seek relief, they all couldn't understand why a skinny ordinary player could win the final championship of the entire game with the help of an ordinary mountain dragon.

Countless seed players who invested heavily and prepared a large number of magic items were defeated in the subsequent competitions. Even when someone wanted to use the opportunity off the field to eliminate this unsettling factor, they participated. The people who took action also disappeared quietly into the gentle night wind by the Mang River.

Nezuk had no problem with keeping a diary.

He also has no habit of bragging.

Therefore, no one knows what kind of methods he used in the series of competitions that were first called "The Most Unexpected Dragon Training Conference" and then became known as "The Greatest Dragon Training Conference". What kind of overt and covert attacks.

People only know that Nezuk, whose life has been blank for the past sixteen years, drove the mountain dragon and defeated all the people and dragons who challenged him in the final championship challenge.

Amid people's cheers and wails, Nezuk got the bonus he wanted, the honor he needed, and the admission qualification he longed for, temporarily leaving the prosperous world and entering his university.

……………………

The first time Nezuk met Kalya was at the opening ceremony of Shurima University.

When all the freshmen stood neatly under the scorching sun, waiting for the principal to speak, Kalya did not give a long and stinky speech, but expressed his sincerity for the students in the shortest possible language. expect.

"I hope you will not let down your past efforts and don't give up on your future possibilities."

Then, amidst the relieved applause of the students, he announced the end of the opening ceremony and told the students with a smile that they could disperse.

The other students were cheering, but Nezuk chewed these two sentences from Kalya carefully.

Past efforts and future possibilities...

Nezuk knew exactly what he had been through in the past.

But Nezuk didn't know what his future possibilities were.

At this moment, he just felt that he still knew too little.

Therefore, Nezuk, who had experienced a long period of social practice, plunged into the library of Shurima University after the start of school, and began to read eagerly about all the "infinite possibilities" that he could understand.

In the history of the Shurima Empire, Nezuk saw what he wanted. In the story, he saw a past that was more difficult and difficult than his childhood and his own life in the world.

What this hardship has brought about is the now eye-catching glory of the Shurima Empire!

Nezuk, who had wandered all this way, finally found his dream and the direction of his struggle for the first time at Shurima University.

After the first-semester final exams, Karya treated all the freshmen to dinner.

During the dinner, Nezuk got drunk for the only time in his life. In his daze, he raised his glass high and made his vow.

"I, Nezuk, will definitely allow everyone to become a spellcaster!"

"I want this Runeterra, where everyone is like a dragon!"

Amid the laughter of the students, Kalya also raised his cup in congratulations, and then clapped softly.
