Lin Luo frowned slightly, cupped his fists and said in a deep voice:
"Senior Twilight Eyes, did you guess that I would come?"
Then I saw Grand Master Shen stand up slowly. He was tall and had a very cold temperament. He had a very long sword slung across his back and a very short dagger at his waist. However, he took out a recorder.
road:
"Master Kainan mentioned you to me. I heard that you went to the Zan family. So no surprise, you are currently looking for the Lord Shenlong."
Lin Luo was a little surprised that the other party knew it so well, but when he thought about it, he was not surprised. The disciples of the Kinkou sect can enter the spiritual world, and now Ionia's danger lies in the spiritual world. No one may know it, but Kinkou
It's impossible for the sect not to know, they even know it better than Irelia.
"Senior knows everything clearly."
Lin Luo cupped his hands and said.
"So if you go to the spiritual world, you should have met that person."
Grand Master Shi Shen suddenly turned around, revealing an extremely cold temperament. Lin Luo could even feel the anger deliberately hidden behind the expression behind the mask.
Lin Luo then knew that the other party knew about the Lord of Shadow Stream, Jie.
Jie is Shen's father-killing enemy. He personally killed the Kushuo Master. Although Shen suppressed his hatred by becoming the Eye of Twilight, it does not mean that the hatred can be eliminated.
[Tip: The other party asked you about the Lord of Shadow Stream-Jie. Your answer will determine the follow-up favorability of the Kinkou Sect towards you...Please answer carefully.]
Lin Luo thought for a while and said calmly:
"I have indeed been to the Shadow Stream Sect, but I have never seen him in person, only his shadow clone. And I have nothing to do with him, let alone from the same sect. I want to go to the spiritual world to find him during this trip.
, just because of Irelia’s instructions and without any other ideas, there is a high probability that he and I will not have too much entanglement.”
No matter what, the relationship must be cleared in front of Zie's father-killing enemy.
Moreover, he is a staunch progressive, while Jie is an ancient opposition. They are opposites in terms of their positions, and it is difficult to become friends.
I just say this so as not to offend the other party.
[Tip: Eye of Twilight-Shen understands your position, and he unlocks the favorability level for you: Friendly, and you are qualified for further communication.]
"Very well, the Kinkou sect doesn't welcome anything from Shadow Stream. Even if it's a common friend, it's fine that you have nothing to do with him."
At this time, Grand Master Shen suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed back:
"Please come into the living room over there. I know you have a lot of doubts, especially about the spiritual world. These are long stories, so why not sit down and have a long chat."
[Tip: You have obtained the qualification to enter the main hall of the Kinkou Sect, and all your favorability in the Kinkou Sect has been increased to: Friendly.]
"The secret of the spiritual world..."
Lin Luo took a deep breath and said that the mission was about to enter the next stage. Based on his mission experience, he guessed that everything in the material world is just the initial pre-mission. The real story of Ionia should start from
The spiritual world begins.
And now it means that the real mission of his coming to Ionia will be revealed.
Lin Luo followed Grand Master Shen to the ancient and quiet back mountain. The place was extremely quiet with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers. Huge spirits visible to the naked eye shimmered and wandered in the vast sky, like fish swimming in the ocean.
There is a tea table a hundred steps away, and two tea chairs one behind the other.
Lin Luo then realized that the other party had not lied before.
He indeed expected that he would come in advance, so he was already prepared to wait.
"Irelia's vision is unmistakable."
Grand Master Shen's first words when he sat down were not to mention himself, let alone Lin Luo, but to turn the topic to Irelia.
He poured a cup of tea, took off his mask, and revealed a serious face with a Chinese character. His expression was unchanging and stern, which did not give people a sense of pressure, nor did it give people a sense of intimacy, but a sense of distant distance.
Lin Luo suddenly thought of the teachings of the Kinkou Sect: not to interfere in anything in the material world.
I think Laishen has implemented this teaching into every word and deed, not just behavior, but also demeanor and emotion.
"how do I say this?"
Lin Luo asked next.
"Although I am not the Divine Dragon Lord, I have my own way of sensing the spirit of the Divine Dragon. If you have a strong divine dragon aura, then you are obviously the most mysterious Spirit Dragon Lord among Nine Dragons. The Spirit Dragon Lord is not responsible for killing.
Fa, but he has an ability that the other eight dragons cannot match, which is to gather together dragons and become the leader of the dragon."
Shen bluntly told many truths:
"There is good and evil in human nature, and there is also good and evil in dragon nature. Even though the spirit of the divine dragon is the lord of all spirits, it still has good and evil thoughts. The shadow dragon is the biggest evil thought among the nine dragons. The only one who can suppress this
There is only one person with evil thoughts, and that is the power of the spiritual dragon."
He stared at Lin Luo and said:
"That's you."
Lin Luo frowned and did not refute, but said:
"Senior wants me to be his enemy? This may not be appropriate."
Shen shook his head:
"Of course not. What I mean is that there are evil thoughts hidden in the shadow dragon. This evil thought will explode in desperate situations and become a time bomb at any time. Only you can suppress it. Although I don't know your trump card, I can feel it.
You have unimaginable power within you...a power close to that of a god."
Lin Luo didn't hide anything, just nodded lightly.
"Senior, can you talk about the spiritual world next?"
Irelia had been mentioning the disaster in the spiritual world before coming here. He had said the same thing when he met Zed before, but he still didn't know anything about it.
This question needs to be answered by Twilight Eyes Shen.
"Of course, when it comes to this, I have to mention Ionia's eternal enemy...the Noxus Empire."
Eyes of Twilight - Shen suddenly looked at Lin Luo:
"You must know the original disaster of Noxus."
"certainly."
"So from your current point of view, Noxus has been defeated and has withdrawn from the First Land, is that right?"
This question made Lin Luo suddenly squint his eyes.
If I ask this question suddenly, there is something in my words.
"Isn't it?"
He had an inexplicable guess, and the more he thought about it, it became a bit unbelievable, and even scary when he thought about it.
"Hahaha, of course it's not that simple!"
Eye of Twilight-Shen suddenly laughed mockingly:
"Family hatred and national hatred will never be forgotten. Noxus left Ionia with the trauma of invasion, and we left Noxus with the humiliation of defeat. The battle seemed to be over, but it was not over at all.
And start again with a completely new approach!”
Lin Luo Ningshen said:
"How is it possible... Isn't Ionia developing pretty well now? I did not find any Noxians or troops in Ionia... Wait!!"
Lin Luo was halfway through talking when he suddenly realized something:
"Could it be that……"
Shen Man nodded solemnly:
"Yes, in fact, the second disaster of Noxus has already begun, but ordinary people cannot notice it, because they have simply changed the battlefield, and this battlefield is exactly..."
Lin Luo took a deep breath and said:
"It's exactly...the spiritual world!?"
…
…………
Scourge of Noxus.
This was one of the most horrific conquests in the history of Runeterra.
If we do not count the global war caused by the Rune Wars, then this horrific large-scale aggressive war that lasted nearly twenty years and had more than 10 million casualties was the most brutal and terrifying in the history of this world.
There is no such thing as a war.
The Noxian warlord from the center of Runeterra conquered and trampled nearly a third of Runeterra with his terrible ambition to sweep the world, and finally set his ambition on the distant land of birth - Ionia.
superior.
The land here is unprecedentedly fertile and can develop good planting and agriculture. It has countless rare minerals and even mysterious minerals whose ingredients cannot be detected. The climate here is good and suitable for living, and there are also mysterious spirits.
strength.
Quite naturally, Noxus has set its greedy eyes here.
The country Noxus, to be precise, has no traditional culture.
Because the development situation of this country is endless conquest, invasion and annexation, all countries that are defeated and willing to be annexed will be integrated into the Noxus Empire along with their culture, becoming a hybrid culture and power that can
It is said to be a powerful complex.
This country has no traditional culture, but it has firm beliefs.
That is the supremacy of power, and the supremacy of absolute power.
As I said before, Ionia, the land of birth, is a country that does not advocate violence and strength. All other countries and regions have more or less the supremacy of power, but there is no such thing here. Power only
Make people respect you, but only in attitude.
Therefore, after the Noxian army came to Ionia, the two countries became incompatible and irreconcilable opposites as soon as they met because of their completely opposite beliefs and ideals.
Not to mention welcoming them, Ionia did not even allow Noxian troops to land.
The Noxus Empire was even more shocked and even more furious!
You must know that their army is invincible across the world, and this is the first time I have encountered such a disrespectful person. I originally planned to take advantage of it, but now I was directly fooled. I just showed my cards and stopped pretending. I am here to beat you.
This war does not need any reason or any sign.
It can also be said that anything can be a reason.
The war started as soon as it started, without any advance warning. Noxus became the offensive party and directly carried out a destructive, inhumane, and massacre-style invasion and destruction of Ionia.
Prior to this, Noxus's philosophy of war was not to fight for the sake of destruction.
To be precise, although the Noxus Empire has ambitions, it is not a truly crazy devil.
Every time they invade a country, they will not massacre the people. They will only kill the people in power and the king, then annex the defeated country, and slowly assimilate the captive people over a long period of time.
The warlords of Noxus will make these defeated people gradually accept the belief in the supremacy of strength, and finally completely transform into the shape of Noxus. Maybe decades later, the invaded country has become a new part of Noxus.
An army was formed and began to invade other countries.
This is the true purpose of the Noxus Empire. Invasion and war are only means. Suppressing these people and then taming them into the shape of the empire is the fundamental purpose.
But this purpose.
This is no longer possible in Ionia.
That's right, the Noxus Empire has been fighting for so many years and has fought countless battles. It has defeated enemies no matter how difficult it is to fight, and has tamed countries no matter how difficult it is to tame, but only Ionia has stumped them.
It’s not because of anything else, it’s precisely because Ionia is a country with a completely democratic tradition. Every citizen and people is a free and independent individual, and they loyally love this land, hometown and country.
Unlike other countries, after the kings and royal families of other countries are killed, the people may be forced to surrender in order to survive, and become prisoners of Noxus under the threat of death. Finally, under the influence of the Noxus Empire,
Under the training, he became a brand new Noxian.
But the Ionians don't.
And this is not something that one Ionia cannot do, but that every Ionia cannot do.
The Noxian warlords were shocked when they discovered this. They had never imagined that such a country, such people, and such a land could exist in the world.
It was precisely for this reason that the Noxian warlord's ferocity and viciousness were completely aroused.
Since Ionians cannot be domesticated, it means that they have no value for reuse.
They then began an unprecedented, horrific massacre of humanity that had never occurred even in the birth of the country Noxus.
Since they cannot be tamed, then they must be killed and destroyed. As long as all the indigenous people in this newly born land are completely killed, then this land can be conquered.
This terrible tyrant's behavior has shocked the entire Runeterra.
This is the first time that Noxus has truly launched a war for the purpose of massacre, so the bloody extent of this war can be felt just how terrifying it is if you think about it carefully.
This is why there are so many large and small countries in Runeterra, including Demacia, Freljord and the Twin Cities. These countries and regions have experienced wars with Noxus a long time ago, but they all successfully resolved them in the end.
, or even formed an alliance to form an alliance, because those wars were just bumps and bruises, and there was no real massacre.
Only Ionia's war scars are unforgettable, because Noxus launched a truly devastating war against them.
This war completely devastated the new land.
The people here are very magical and can communicate with the power of all spirits. However, before this, they never used to fight or fight, and even fights rarely happened.
Ionians who lack experience in warfare.
Facing the tyrant's army that has experienced hundreds of battles, how can it be an opponent?
Even if they possess great power, they still need a period of adaptation, and it was precisely this adaptation period that caused Ionia to suffer the tragic trampling of war.
Finally the people of Ionia awakened.
Not a physical awakening, but a spiritual awakening.
They began to gradually form an army and learned to use the power of all spirits, martial arts, ninjutsu, swordsmanship, qi...
One by one, ancient forces began to awaken, including the Shadow Stream Sect, the Brotherhood of Navori, some disciples of the Kinkou Sect, the Vastayan Alliance, the Wuji Sword Sect, the Gale Sword Field, the Shuoji Temple...these lands in Ionia.
Their exclusive forces and strength joined the resistance war one after another. Their deep foundation allowed them to gradually reverse the situation and be able to resist the Noxian army.
but.
Even so, it can only be resistance.
The land of Ionia is still suffering from terrible wars.
If you want to change from resistance to victory, a real hero must appear.
And in this year.
An upright savior hero appeared in Presiden's house.
Fourteen-year-old Irelia could not sit back and watch the war continue. She volunteered to fight with the power of the Three Phases, the most powerful artifact of all spirits, and defeated the Noxian Commander-in-Chief Si
Wein's army completely completed a true frontal battle victory!
This battle was Ionia's first victory in a frontal battle in these years.
This is good news that makes countless Ionians cry with joy!
Irelia was at her peak when she debuted. At the age of fourteen, she saved the spirit and faith of the entire Ionia, and was sought after by all people and forces to become the spiritual leader of Ionia.
In that year, the Zan family also became the leader of all the forces in Navoli.
However, the war has not completely ended here. Noxus' troops are constantly coming. After all, Ionia has only just awakened. How can it compete with the continent's strongest empire, which has decades and hundreds of years of war experience and heritage?
The only thing that can resist the foundation is the same profound and terrifying foundation.
Then, the Dragon Masters appeared.
Ionia is composed of two worlds, the spiritual world and the material world, and the spiritual world is obviously more powerful because it contains the lord of all spirits and the spirit of the dragon that has existed since ancient times.
The ritual of summoning the divine dragon is very difficult. It is necessary to find nine divine dragon sages to open up the avenue of tomorrow, and at the same time let the yin and yang dragon eyes complete the ritual before the divine dragon can be officially brought into the world.
Unfortunately, the Apocalypse of Ionia, the Yang Dragon, had not yet been born, the war was coming to an end, and there was not much time left.
Irelia could only forcibly summon the dragon, and finally defeated the Noxian army that severely damaged it, completing a true victory.
After that, the people of Ionia returned to their normal lives, but even though the war was gone, the trauma left behind could not be erased. Just like someone slashed you with a knife, even though that person went to prison, but
You will still be in pain, and the hidden illness of the spirit of the gods will remain.
At the same time, Ionia began to divide, and different opinions emerged in the various alliance provinces of Ionia.
Some advocate returning to traditional life, which is the meaning of Ionia's existence.
Some people advocate the need to modernize, enhance Ionia's power, build an army, develop economy and technology, and also establish alliances with other countries to enhance the international status of Runeterra and completely make Ionia stronger.
These are the so-called opposition and progressives.
Before this, Irelia was a staunch opponent, but suddenly she became a progressive.
The reason is precisely the changes in the spiritual world.
So now the words of Shen, Eye of Twilight, have completely opened up everything, just like clearing the clouds and seeing the sun.
He stared at Lin Luo and said word by word:
"The war has never ended, or in other words, the war has already started in another world!"
"The people of Noxus have already launched a new round of war. They will not accept defeat. In order to wash away the shame of defeat, they came to Ionia again, but this time they learned from the experience of the previous war.
, they no longer kill people in the material world, but target the spiritual world."
An incredible thought came to Lin Luo's mind:
"Did they start... to kill all the spirits in the spiritual world? They wanted to defeat Ionia in another way, so they launched a war from the most fundamental method?"
Shen nodded:
"Yes, this is the source of the disaster, but it is not the whole story. Noxus found a way into the spirit world and began to destroy and conquer the spirit world, and as you learned... Ionian power
The source of all spirits is the power of all spirits. If all spirits are once destroyed..."
Shen said with an extremely solemn tone:
"Ionia will completely lose its vitality, and this land will completely die!"
He said:
"So we have to face war again. The robbery you are looking for happens to be one of the rebels who has joined the war in the spiritual world."
