Chapter1157 The romance of flying geese leaving traces
Under the worried gazes of Keisha and Elise, Lester and Jasmine walked out of the room one after another, with a delicate-looking green-haired elf sitting on Jasmine's shoulders.
Elise was stunned.
"Yes, Miss Elena?"
Elena looked at Elise who was speaking and shook her little hand.
"Weiya, long time no see."
Elena didn't know Elise, but she knew Octavia. When she heard Elena call herself Viya, a smile appeared on Elise's face.
Compared with the old Elise, Kesha seemed much more reserved in front of Elena.
"Hello, Miss Elena."
"How about I call you Kesha? Kesha is a bit confused."
Just as she was a little confused as to why Elena said that, Elena suddenly flew to Kesha's shoulder, startling the girl, and said quickly.
"Yes, of course."
Lester laughed out loud.
"Okay, stop teasing Kesha. It's better not to use the name Kesha."
Elena then flew back to Lester's shoulder.
"It took me some time to talk to Jasmine. Now that everyone is here, we should get ready to go.
So, four ladies, the journey to Rune Continent has officially begun."
Lester snapped his fingers, and a faint blue runic circle appeared under the feet of Kesha and the others. The next moment, they disappeared into the hotel.
When they opened their eyes again, everyone was already on a high mountain covered in ice and snow.
Before the biting cold wind brought the knife-like frost and snow into contact with the girls' bodies, the girls' bodies were covered with a layer of magic light curtain, isolating the cold air from their bodies.
Except for Jasmine, who is very sensitive to magic, Kesha and Elise were not aware of Lester's thoughtful move, and their minds were already taken away by the peerless beauty.
Looking down the mountain for a bird's eye view,
The steep snow-capped mountains and ice peaks are endless, guarding a vast and ancient ice-free lake like immortal guards of ice and snow.
The ice-free lake, which is more transparent and pure than sea blue gems, nourishes a magnificent city. The ancient black stone buildings are poured with magnificent blue ice. Under the rising twilight, the whole city exudes a bright golden light.
The most eye-catching ones are the two giant humanoid Zhenbing statues in the city, which are more than 30 meters in size.
Among them is a statue of a woman wearing an animal skin military uniform, wearing a crown on her head, holding a long bow, and holding an eternal ice-blue torch in her right hand, with a solemn and majestic expression.
Standing side by side with the female statue is a mighty man wearing heavy metal armor.
The man was holding an exaggerated heavy gun, and the plate armor boot of his right foot trampled on a terrifying vampire monster. The tip of the heavy gun penetrated into the monster's head. The monster's ferocious face was very vivid.
Highlighting the fear coming from the heart,
Just looking at it from a distance, the women can feel the substantive majesty and dominance of the male statue.
Under the two tall statues, thousands of pilgrims were kneeling on the ground with pious expressions and chanting words.
Different from the poor and inaccessible ice and snow land in my impression,
The northern city in front of us is bustling with people and carriages, and the passengers and carriages are flowing slowly like blood. Judging from the accessories of the carriages and the dressing style of the pedestrians, there are actually many foreigners living here.
"This is Freljord?"
Elise looked at Lester blankly. Whether it was as 'Octavia' or as 'Elise' now, the Freljord in her memory was always a place where she had too much time to take care of herself.
According to various classics, the Freljordians would even cruelly bury newborns who could not feed themselves in the ice and snow to avoid suffering alive.
But now, a barbarian force that can't even support its own ethnic group can actually own such a city? And it can also support so many pilgrims who are not engaged in production. It is really incredible.
"This is the Freljord, or more specifically, this is Rakstark,
This place is the former residence of Queen Avarosa, a place of pilgrimage for the Kingdom of Freljord, and one of the main aid cities after the empire established an alliance with the Kingdom of Freljord."
After listening to Lester's words, Jasmine looked at the statue of the Overlord, which was juxtaposed with the statue of Queen Avarosa and receiving worship from the Northlanders, in a daze.
Different from the original Runeterra, today's Freljord has suffered various disasters. Among the many disasters, the invasion of vampires is the most dangerous and deadly. A little carelessness can lead to the annihilation of the entire clan.
.
If it weren't for the aid of the Noxus Empire and the Emperor Lester personally arriving and defeating the Blood King Darkwill in the battle of annihilation, the tribes of the Freljord would have been wiped out long ago.
What kind of world-shattering battle would it be to be able to leave his statue in Freljord, where the strong is king, alongside Queen Avarosa, the faith of the people of the North?
Before Jasmine could recover, everyone appeared in an uninhabited alley in the city, accompanied by the flickering magic light of the teleportation array.
"Ladies, welcome to Larkstadt."
Walking out of the alley onto the street, the three women and an elf quickly integrated into the exotic city.
Without Lester taking the lead, the girls spontaneously formed a shopping team and started exploring Larkstake.
In the city of Rakstak, Noxian is the most common lingua franca, so communication does not pose a substantial obstacle.
If you want to buy something valuable, you can just use the empire currency to buy it. You don't even need to carry it yourself. Lester will thoughtfully come forward and put the things into the magic space.
Nowadays, the United Kingdom of Freljord has just been established and has not yet minted coins with its own characteristics on a large scale. Therefore, the mainstream currency circulating on the market is Noxian metal coins.
Playing and shopping in a foreign city in an unimaginable way, the girls were so excited that they forgot about time, and it was noon before they knew it.
Walking into a restaurant owned by a Freljordian, the owner with a beard, about forty or fifty years old, warmly entertained everyone.
"Dignified guests from Noxus, what do you want to eat?"
Lester's face softened.
"Two Juvasque roast suckling pigs, sprinkle with more vine peppers."
"Okay, guest, please wait a moment..."
"Barryon, yes, which guest wants to eat Juvask roast suckling pig?"
Following the words, an old man who was already in his twilight years, leaning on crutches, was supported by a girl and walked out of the back room.
The old man was stumbling, and his cloudy eyes seemed to be unable to see. If it weren't for the girl's guidance, he might have bumped into the guests along the way.
"Dad? Why did you come out?"
The old man looked a little anxious, trying hard to open his blurred eyes, trying to find the person who just spoke among the hazy figures, but he couldn't even see his son.
"Benefactor, is it you? Are you here?"
The bearded boss sighed, worried that his father would disturb the distinguished guests from Noxus, so he said to the girl who was supporting the old man.
"Shauna, help grandpa back."
The Freljord girl named Shawna nodded and wanted to help the old man leave, but the old man stood very stubbornly. The girl did not dare to force the old man to go, and could only look at her father helplessly.
.
Just when the bearded boss was about to deal with the old man himself, Lester stood up and walked to the old man's side in a few steps.
Afraid that Lester would do something bad to his father, the store owner Barry stood in front of Lester with a smile on his face.
"Guest, my father is too old. Many times he doesn't know what he is doing... Xiaona, take grandpa back quickly."
"You are Bacchus' son, and you have grown so big."
Barrien froze on the spot. Could it be that the distinguished guest in front of him was really an old acquaintance of his father?
Before Barrien could say anything, the old man became very excited and pushed his son who was standing in front of him, trying to get him away.
"You little bastard, get out of the way! Don't get in your father's way!
My benefactor, it is indeed you! I am Bacchus! After all these years, I have never forgotten your voice, my benefactor! I can recognize you even if I am blind!"
Feeling that he had become an eyesore inexplicably, Barrien got out of the way with a certain amount of confusion and a certain amount of grievance.
Seeing that the tall shadow blocking him left, the old man stepped forward and stretched out his withered hands towards the hazy figure, as if he wanted to grab something but was afraid of offending the other person.
In the sight of more than a dozen people, Lester reached out and took the initiative to hold the old man's withered hand, then used his other hand to touch the old man's gray eyes, and briefly removed the visual interference magic in front of the old man.
"Bacchus, it's me."
As soon as he said this sentence, the old man's vision became clearer, and even his body, which was usually weak, seemed to have strength.
Looking at the young man in front of him who was slightly older than his granddaughter, Bacchus burst into tears and was about to kneel on the ground while choking.
After noticing her grandfather's actions, the girl was a little at a loss, until Lester took the initiative to support the old man and patted the old man's shoulder with his hand. The girl looked at Lester gratefully.
"Bacchus, I also want to try your craftsmanship."
The many words I want to express in my heart all turn into a goal that must be achieved at all costs.
Nodding vigorously, the old man who had just finished crying smiled happily, not like an old man, but like a child.
"Then please wait a moment, I'll do it right away."
After saying that, the old man took the initiative to break away from his granddaughter's support, threw away his crutch, and walked to the kitchen alone.
Barrien looked at his father blankly, his mind went blank.
He had forgotten how many years his father had not shown such joy. The last time the old man laughed heartily was when his daughter Shawna was born.
and,
Why did his father suddenly become so agile?
Barrion turned to look at Lester, only to see that Lester had already sat back at the wooden table, not looking like he was going to talk to him.
He had to suppress the doubts in his heart. He would never dare to go up and ask about his father's 'benefactor'.
Half an hour later, the two already-cut Juvasque suckling pigs were placed on the table where Lester was sitting on a plate by the old man and his granddaughter.
An aroma that was different from other roasted suckling pigs filled the air, making several guests look nostalgic.
Although he has learned the craft to a close, but if we compare it, Barrien failed to learn the essence of old Bacchus.
There are some things that only old Bacchus can make.
Perhaps this old Bacchus' benefactor is the difference between father and son.
"Benefactor, how does it taste?"
After Lester took the lead in taking a small bite, the old man waiting on the side asked cautiously,
"It still smells the same."
"That's good."
After getting an answer that satisfied him, the old man said nothing more, turned around and left with his granddaughter, and stopped disturbing Lester's meal.
After lunch, Lester took the girls to find a deserted alley and used teleportation magic.
By the time their consciousness became clear again, the girls had arrived under a towering tree.
The feeling of greenness came to us, and the tree crowns covered the entire sky. There was no sun or moon here, but it did not feel eerie or scary at all. Instead, it made people feel comfortable and comfortable.
The world under the tree has formed a special biome that is completely different from the surface structure. Carnivores and herbivores coexist harmoniously, showing an overly dreamy scene.
Decorated with various fluorescent plants and fireflies, the thick roots exposed above the ground moved away on their own initiative, frightening away many cute little animals.
An indestructible double-open magical wooden door appeared in the hollow of the root system.
As the branches and leaves twisted, a very serious face of a tree man appeared on the wooden door. However, before the face of the tree man who was checking who was coming had taken shape, the wooden door had already opened on its own initiative, and a three-meter-tall tree man emerged from the tree.
Walk out of the cave and take the initiative to meet Lester.
Tree Face maintained a respectful look, and took the initiative to bend down to Lester, his voice was deep and powerful.
"My lord, please come in."
"Get up, Maokai. How are you doing?"
The tree man straightened up, with a look of joy on his face.
"Everything is fine."
"Is Ivern here?"
The tree man shook his head.
"Ivern went to the Golden Willow."
Lester, who was chatting with the tree man, waved his hands to the girls behind him, gesturing for them to follow him.
Jasmine followed a few steps and whispered.
"Boss, is that tree man really Maokai?"
Lester looked back.
"Guaranteed replacement if fake."
"Then what is this giant tree?"
"Maokai too."
Jasmine was speechless,
The information on the Shadow Island is considered the highest level secret in the Noxus Empire. Even she, a magic crystal warrior, has no way of knowing what is going on here. After all, the fountain of life that can influence the world structure is on the Shadow Island.
The only thing that is known is that the empire has solved the trouble caused by the ruined king Foyego and the Underworld Legion, and recovered the Shadow Island. As for the extent of the recovery, it is not known.
But I never thought that Maokai turned into a world tree? How much growth hormone does it take to grow like this?
