North Shurima, Nashrame, Bright Bazaar.

A graceful figure is like a nimble fish, shuttling between the large and small stalls in this market. Although it covers its face with the latest silk mask, it is still like a magnet, firmly attracting people.

caught the gaze of the surrounding male creatures.

And just when they were stunned, this slim figure had quietly disappeared at the end of the market. Some disappointed people began to whisper, asking about her identity and origin, but in the end they only knew her name.

, seems to be called Cassiopeia.

……………………

Cassiopeia returned to the private house she had purchased in Naslam.

After Zuan suffered a tragic defeat, she was always worried about the punishment from within the Black Rose. After joining this mysterious organization with her mother, she had seen many horrific executions, but before that,

Cassiopeia never thought that this kind of execution might happen to her.

The fearful Cassiopeia chose to escape. She persuaded Talon with her family affection and asked him to take her to escape Zaun, fled to Bergun, and headed west to Nasramei.

Of course, running away is not a way to avoid punishment. Cassiopeia knows very well that the punishment of Black Rose cannot be easily avoided by running away - the reason why she came to Nasramei is because she wants to start again from here.

Find a way to avoid punishment.

In the library of Noxus, she had read many books and documents about the history of Shurima, but most of the descriptions were a bit exaggerated, as if the Shurima Empire was full of people walking around in the world.

God only.

Cassiopeia sneered at this statement. If Shurima was really full of gods, why did this empire fall?

Therefore, from Cassiopeia's perspective, those exaggerated words should be the product of people blending history and mythology.

However, the encounter in Zaun gave Cassiopeia a slap in the face.

In Bergun, Cassiopeia finally breathed a sigh of relief. When she recalled the whole incident, she unexpectedly discovered that the description of the Cyclops was exactly the same as Shurima's record of the construct!

Under this situation, Cassiopeia had to have a subtle thought - are all the exaggerated records about the Shurima Empire in history true?

Cassiopeia was quite surprised when she realized this. In addition to being surprised, she couldn't help but tremble with excitement. She remembered what she had heard from many explorers when she was a spy in the Piltover Adventurers Association.

Arrived story.

Although Cassiopeia listened to them purely for entertainment at that time, thinking about it now, maybe those stories... also contained some amazing secrets!

And as long as you can see through one of the secrets, its value will be enough to make up for your mistakes and save yourself from suffering the cruel punishment of the Black Rose!

So, while Cassiopeia recorded the information she received in a form similar to a memoir, she temporarily took root in Nasramei and began to adapt to the desert life of Shurima.

This adaptation took three years.

In three years, she compiled a lot of notes and then destroyed most of them - it turns out that bragging in front of beautiful people of the opposite sex is almost human instinct. Cassiopeia finally compiled the information

, more than 80% of them can be confirmed to be pure nonsense with just a simple inquiry.

Of the remaining 20%, 80% simply changed the names of myths and legends from various places, and replaced the protagonist with his own cowhide. This kind of story itself has a certain reference, but the reference is quite limited.

Only a handful of stories may actually hide legends about certain treasures and powers.

Unfortunately, due to the retelling, Cassiopeia could not find any clues about the legends that contained certain language or pun content. Only those stories that were relatively straightforward and had clear followings could give Cassiopeia

Peia has some hope.

During this period, Cassiopeia was also paying attention to the situation in Zaun to see if she could go back and check the situation. However, because she was no longer qualified to mobilize the war masons, her main way to pay attention to Zaun was to

Relying on the Piltover Daily News - through the merchant ships traveling between Nashram and Piltover, she could read the Piltover Daily News ten days ago.

Later, she added the Zaun Daily from ten days ago to her subscription list.

It's a pity that Cassiopeia, who wanted to see Zaun unlucky, was not able to realize her wish. In the past three years, Zaun has prospered. Even if the Piltover Daily is as sinister as ever, it has to be affirmed that Zu'an has been prosperous.

An's achievements in some areas.

Cassiopeia, who is very aware of the relationship between the two parties, naturally knows that when the people of Piltover have to be arrogant and affirmative at the same time, instead of criticizing wantonly or praising falsely, Zaun's situation may really be very different from before.

Same.

Cassiopeia was quite disappointed about this, but she had nothing to do.

The Zaun people are lucky!

Taking out the key and opening the room door, Cassiopeia returned to her residence in Nasramei.

After putting away the keys, she took off her veil, stretched out on the lounge chair, and unfolded the newspaper she had brought back from the port today.

In yesterday's newspaper, she saw a rare piece of news about Noxus - although it was not good news, but "Zuan and Piltover crushed Noxus' conspiracy".

Despite the news of Sass's failure, Cassiopeia still read it with gusto.

After today's two newspapers were unfolded, Cassiopeia finally stood upright and jumped up from the recliner.

In the newspaper she received today, she saw two identical headlines.

"Some Visions for Rebuilding Wazuan"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zauan and Piltover were the former Oshla Vazuan, and Cassiopeia knew this.

However, even if she knew this, she was still so surprised that she was speechless when she saw these two identical titles.

Even though she knew that some time ago, Piltover and Zaun had cooperated to a limited extent and jointly resisted a premeditated invasion by the Noxian "Ionian Routine", she still could not imagine that these two

How could this city think of reuniting as Vazuan?

Having been lurking in Piltover for so long, Cassiopeia was very aware of the huge differences in interests between the two cities - even if the situation in Zaun had changed, and she was qualified to be on an equal footing with Piltover, that was

What prompted their union?

Cassiopeia was confused.

She couldn't wait to open the newspaper, trying to find some clues in it, but as she read over and over, the contents were mostly legal declarations and future initiatives, and the words were full of "rebuilding the glory of Shurima.

The smell of “It is our duty to do so” made Cassiopeia frown.

The smell is too strong!

She is used to saying things like this in Nashrame. In this Shurima commercial city second only to Piltover, Nasrame can be said to have taken "retro is trend" to the extreme.

, any wealthy family will try their best to use the patterns and styles of the Shurima Empire era on themselves, as if wearing the clothes of that time can return to that era of glory...

From Cassiopeia's point of view, everyone in the entire Nashirama seemed to be immersed in a kind of fanaticism that was almost paranoid. After they made money, they did not expand the city or form an army. Instead, they were like crazy. According to the book

According to the records on the Internet, a one-to-one gilded sun disk was reconstructed!

A real wonder player!

What makes Cassiopeia even more unbelievable is that with the establishment of the Sun Disk, Nashrami really ushered in a period of incomprehensible prosperity, and a large number of refugees came to Nasramei to pay their respects.

This Xibei product, under the guidance of the local priest, finally chose to settle nearby.

Through this solar disk, Nashrame really gained a large population!

Is Piltover lacking in population?

However, in Cassiopeia's impression, Piltover's urban welfare is still very good. They will not easily introduce those illiterate Shurima poor who only know how to herd and plant!

For a moment, Cassiopeia was puzzled.

After reading the front-page article several times, Cassiopeia finally turned over the newspaper and scanned the other pages. Then, she once again found two almost identical articles.

The news content of these two articles is also very simple.

The evil Noxus Empire defeated Besilico's heroic resisters with cruel methods and despicable plots. However, because of the Noxian's wolfish ambitions, Darius, who commanded this army, failed to do so after the war.

He did not return to the court with his troops, but stayed in Besilico and established himself as the commander-in-chief.

Because this Noxian army has Besilico as its main core area, it will be called Noxus for short. The original Noxus had the Immortal Fortress as its core, so it was called Noxus (not Noxus).

).

According to Mr. Duren, who escaped from Besilico, Noxus (Besilico) is currently systematically wiping out local nobles and powerful merchants, and establishing a completely different administrative system from before. However, because of Noxus

Texas (Bay) is still in a state of external blockade, and the specific actions are still unknown.

As of the time the news was released, Noxus had occupied a large area of ​​Noxian territory in the southeastern subcontinent of Valoran. Just one day before the news was released, Noxus

)Xueya City, an important town in the southeast, surrendered without a fight.

It is reported that on the Noxus (Not) side, the empire is gathering a conquest army, and there is news that the famous general of Noxus (Not) once had a close relationship with Noxus (Bey)’s Chief of General Staff Jericho.

General Du Cacao, who Swain co-chaired the Shurima conquest plan, will lead the army to put down the rebellion after taking over the position of Hand of Noxus.

According to the analysis of military experts, Noxus (Beijing) and Noxus (Brotherville) may enter a state of confrontation along the Red River west of Bloodcliff City in the future...

If the fact that Piltover and Zaun were to unite to form Varzuan only confused Cassiopeia before, then the split of Noxus has completely confused her!

The most outrageous thing is that she actually read the expired Zaun newspaper in Nashrame and read the news about her father in the Immortal Fortress.

After reading newspapers for so many years, Cassiopeia knew very well that the Piltover newspaper liked to talk nonsense, and the Zaun newspaper liked to understatement - and now, the two newspapers have carried out the same report, and it is very possible that the factual part of it

It's a biased fact.

As for the speculation by "military experts" that Du Quecao will lead troops to fight...

To be honest, Cassiopeia thought so too.

Noxus is a big country, with many warbands and many warband commanders.
To be continued...
