Hengdao immediately rode with Ji Xing on the carriage heading to the arena. While chatting with Ji Xing about the omnipotent capsule business in Noxus, Anbeisa observed Ji Xing, who was fair and honest.
As a powerful female warlord of Noxus with a throne in her family, she had long forgotten how to hide her emotions. In fact, her curiosity about Ji Xing had already reached its peak.
A young man who is only a few years older than his youngest son, but stands at the center of the entire Rune Continent. Except for the relatively conservative and ancient Shurima, there are probably no cities in the ice fields where outsiders have not heard of him.
Compared to Hex Technology, which is still under development, the universal capsule is already a quite mature product, and if it is just a universal capsule, it is nothing. Compared to the powerful Noxar, the wealth accumulated by the Feros family
For Sri Lanka, it is like a castle in the air, which can collapse if you fiddle with it at will.
But when Sewell, who invented the universal capsule, was also a top mage, the missing foundation was filled. Ambesa had seen the destruction that a magician like a god could cause.
One man is the enemy, which is definitely not an exaggeration.
Is this coincidence or luck?
Ambersa didn't believe it. This was more like a step-by-step operation by a confident person!
But from the outside... you can't tell.
Except for the unusually gorgeous staff in his hand, the young man in front of him has a bit more aura and better temperament than his peers, and there is always a faint smile on his face that makes people feel like spring breeze.
Judging from the tight outline of his calves and some body movements, he looks more like a good warrior, who should contain explosive power.
"...Anyway, it's still not enough." Ambesa waved her arm: "Even if the monthly supply increases by 50 times, Noxus can fully absorb it. I heard that the third and fourth universal capsule factories will be built.
Is it already under construction? When will it be completed? In fact... given the current situation, you can consider building several factories in Noxus to avoid the time loss of sea transportation."
"It will probably be completed this month." Ji Xing replied: "As for the shipping issue... Mrs. Camille is communicating with Noxus to build a Hex Flygate network. Councilor Mel did not inform you of this news?
"
Ambersa was startled, and a hint of darkness flashed across her rough face: "There's no need to hide it from you. That girl and I have a normal relationship. Many times I have to find sources of information from other places."
"After all, they are mother and daughter. There is no misunderstanding that cannot be solved." Ji Xing said.
"Haha..." Ambesa laughed boldly, shook her head and said: "There is no misunderstanding. To survive in this empire, some things must be given up. That girl Mel can't give up, but she also created something in Piltover.
It's good to have a career, there is no need to forcefully integrate.
But you, Sewell, I don’t quite understand your ‘goal’, wealth, fame, power, power... you already have it all, I don’t understand why you came to Noxus.”
"Because it's not enough." Ji Xing smiled: "For me, today's magic practice is just the beginning, and there is still a long way to go."
Anbeisa was startled, looked at Ji Xing's eyes seriously, and exclaimed in admiration: "So that's true, and that's right. You are only 19 years old, and you still have a long time to become stronger... Your achievements
It's easy for people to overlook your age."
The strong female warlord seemed to be reminiscing about her lost youth, but it was only fleeting. She raised the curtain of the carriage and said: "Even if Sewell is just starting out, you are probably already the dream target of others. I don't know if you can do it this time."
A chance to see your magic...
Oh, the Arena of Glory is coming soon."
…
As today's reckoning is about to begin, spectators in the arena have already entered the venue.
The four-sided stands, which can accommodate 50,000 people, were almost full and the crowd was buzzing. They even cheered warmly when Delevingne appeared on the execution platform.
In the past, Draven would enjoy this honor very much, but today his face was always gloomy and he did not respond to the cheers of the audience.
The failure to invite Sewell, especially the way of failure, made him unable to accept it. He was inviting, but Sewell's rejection was sent to Darius. What did this mean?
It means that Sevier thinks that he is not worthy of talking to him as an equal. It means that Sevier is asking Darius to 'take care of his brother'. To him, it is like stepping on his face into the soil!
But after thinking about it after thinking about it, he wanted to teach Sewell a lesson, but he felt that there was nothing he could do against Sewell. At this moment, Draven woke up from the illusion of fame and knew that he was still inferior to Drae.
There are too many.
If it were an invitation from Darius, no one in the Noxus Empire would dare to refuse.
I must become stronger, I must become more feared, I must become more famous!
Because of this, he adjusted the order of appearances at today's dinner. Riven, who was supposed to be the finale, was mentioned first. He wanted to vent his anger with a hearty battle and tell everyone the difference between ordinary liquidators and himself.
!
Standing on the high platform, his majestic gaze swept over the field below and the crowd in the stands, like a king inspecting his territory, when suddenly someone from the arena organizer came up to him and whispered.
"What?!"
Delevingne's eyes changed, and he hurriedly disappeared from the clearing platform, heading towards the noble auditorium passage.
Some minor nobles and lieutenants who passed by greeted him one after another. Delevingne paid no attention to any of them. Holding a double ax weapon, he did not stop until he saw Ji Xing's figure.
"...Ha, Master Sewell." His shoehorned face showed no kindness: "I remember you said you were unavailable to my invitation?"
"Boy, people must be self-aware, think about the consequences before doing things, and retain basic decency for themselves."
Without Ji Xing's need to respond, Anbeisa took a step forward and said coldly: "I heard that you have recently become an actor? That's good. In time, you know that you don't have the talent to lead troops in war. This is very important to the empire."
It’s a good thing to say.”
She had already asked Ji Xing why he came to the arena, and she also knew about the little 'conflict' between Ji Xing and Draven, but she didn't take it seriously.
When she conquered the enemy country, Draven was not yet born. If it were Darius, she would have to give him three points of respect, but Draven? In front of him, he was just a junior who couldn't tell the difference between importance and importance.
Facing Ambesa, Draven was indeed very afraid, but the anger accumulated in his chest was enough to fill it up. He hummed: "I thought it was who it was, but it turned out to be Myrdal who was taking refuge in Piltover. Look.
For the sake of money, the commander-in-chief did not clean up you, did not hide in your territory to rejoice, and actually dared to come to the Immortal Fortress?"
Ambersa lowered her face gloomily, put her hand on the hilt of the sword, and said, "Boy, do you want to test whether my sword is sharp or not?"
The two axes in Draven's hands also began to spin, and he looked directly at Ambesa without showing any signs of weakness. Ten years ago, he saw how far away Ambesa was and how far he hid, but now your time has passed, old man!
Ji Xing realized that nothing happened to him.
He shook his head and touched the ground with his silver staff.
"Qiang——"
In an instant, the loud and clear sound of the phoenix's cry seemed to reverberate in the souls of Anbeisa and Delevingne. They all looked at Ji Xing's staff, and the phoenix on the handle expanded illusively and fluttered its wings!
No, I'm flying.
The next moment, Draven realized this fact. His face was distorted, and he gritted his teeth and shouted: "You dare to attack me?! Sevier! This is Noxus! The Immortal Fortress!"
"Oh." Ji Xing's staff pointed outward.
Boom!!
The roaring sound then sounded, and Delaiwen made a meteor streak across, directly hitting the wall of the passage! The huge explosion sound silenced the entire arena. Looking sideways, he only heard a long and tragic sound.
Yelling, I saw only a meteor flying across the sky into the distance!
What happened? What is that?
"Is this the power of a top mage?"
In the passage, Ambesa bent down and picked up the two throwing axes that Draven had lost, and weighed them in wonder: "You won't kill him, right?"
"That's not the case. I'm just sending him home to make him sober up." Ji Xing said with a smile.
Outside the passage, some school officials and staff hurried over after hearing the sound. They didn't know Ji Xing, but they knew Anbeisa, and even more so Delevingne's axe.
The momentum of war preparations subsided, and the leading colonel greeted: "Lord Ambesa? What happened here, where is General Delevingne?"
Ambesa casually hit the ax and let Draven's ax embed in the wall. She turned around and smiled: "I don't know, maybe there was something urgent at home. I chatted for a few words and then left in a hurry. I don't know if I can still catch up today."
Late show.”
"..." Everyone looked at each other in confusion.
If you say this, who can believe it?
It seems like something big happened!
But they couldn't afford to offend Ambesa.
"Why did Lord Ambesa come to the arena of the Immortal Fortress this time?" The person in charge of the arena who rushed over could only suppress his uneasiness and said with a smile: "And this extraordinary mage beside you...could it be...
…”
"He is Sevier." Ambesa said: "Okay, the show is about to start. Take Sevier and me to the best audience seats!"
Everyone was shocked, their eyes became clearer, and they respectfully stepped aside to let the road pass.
…
"Mom, there's a shooting star!"
In the neighborhood of Noxus, a little boy held by a woman jumped to his feet and shouted. The woman looked up in surprise, but saw nothing.
"It's over. Mom is so stupid!"
"Haha, did Jacques make a wish on a shooting star?" the woman asked with a smile.
The little boy's happy expression froze, and he said in despair: "The meteor flew too fast, I forgot."
"It doesn't matter. Jacques is still young and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Don't forget it next time."
"Um!"
Such conversations happened in many places at the same time, and some people were happy after completing their wishes, but as a meteor native, Draven was not happy.
"Bastard...bastard..."
Lying prone in the mud, the embarrassed Draven struggled to get up, but due to the strong dizziness, he pushed himself up several times and fell back into the mud.
Angrily, he grabbed two handfuls of dirt, and blood dripped from his bitten lip. Draven's anger almost ignited the world! This is the most shameful and humiliating thing I have ever suffered. This damn mage, what kind of evil magic, let me fly here.
where?!
There is some noise in the distance, from far to near.
"...This is, this is?!"
"General Draven?!"
"Quick! Call the doctor! Call the general!"
Do you know me? General?
Draven, who was dizzy and exhausted, felt himself being helped up by two people, and the noise of "Are you okay, are you okay?" echoed in his ears.
Draven shook his head vigorously, and the ghost's sight returned clearly. He gradually saw the guy holding him clearly, and he looked very familiar.
Then Fang Zheng's gloomy face appeared in front of him, and Draven became even more familiar with it.
"What's going on, Draven, who made you look like this?"
"Darius..."
Draven's angry mood gradually disappeared, like waking up from a big dream, and it was a little hard to accept.
"This is your general's mansion?!"
Darius frowned: "You are supposed to have a liquidation show at the Glory Arena tonight. Come on, what's going on? It seems that you have provoked someone you shouldn't have provoked... Sewell? You didn't take my warning into account."
In your heart?!"
The majestic voice echoed in his ears, and Draven felt the anger from it, but the anger of his brother that he was most afraid of when he was young was not worth mentioning at this moment.
I flew from the north to the south of the city? More than thirty kilometers? Just over a minute?!
More importantly, I am still alive...
The fear in his eyes flashed away, and he clenched his fists and remained silent. No matter how Darius asked, he kept his neck stiffened and kept silent. Finally, he got his favorite fist and flew more than ten meters away.
When he fell, Draven felt a little emotional. His brother's fist didn't seem to be heavy anymore?
…
"quack!"
In the Immortal Fortress, a group of pitch-black crows screamed and flew to Swain, disappearing into Swain's unfolded robes and disappearing without a trace.
What happened in the arena was sent to Swain through the eyes of the crow, and he nodded slightly: "A moderate lesson."
He has not worried about this. If Sevier can't even handle this little thing well, causing the conflict with Draven to evolve into a conflict with Darius or even himself, it can only mean that Sevier has already done it.
Take a clear stand.
The crow clone was sent to pay attention only because of the weapon Katarina demonstrated to him. The miraculous seven-level enchantment told Swain that the attention he paid before was not enough.
This is a mage with strategic significance. Not only is he extremely powerful, he even has the ability to mass-produce "semi-legendary weapons". Unfortunately, Noxus has no chance to gain his loyalty.
Maybe this is LeBlanc's plan? To arouse my greed? His heart has always been unsettled, and he feels that it will not be that simple.
At this moment, the secret demon suddenly issued a strong alarm to him. Swain suddenly stood up and looked at the purple bald head in front of him, which seemed to emerge from the void in the arc flash.
"You are... Rune Mage Ryze?!"
"Excuse me, the current monarch of Noxus." Ryze bowed his head slightly in greeting.
Swain quickly calmed down his gloomy expression. This kind of "shocked" rarely happened to him, but the person in front of him was different.
The legendary rune mage Ryze is a truly legendary figure. Countless people have seen him, but there are very few records left. The only thing that is certain is that he is extremely powerful.
If the Pale Lady is already a mage who stands at the top of Runeterra, famous for her endless deceitful tricks, then Ryze should be famous for her strength and persistence.
Walking in the most desolate places, collecting runes to protect them for thousands of years, and coming into contact with countless runes in the world, he has gained so much knowledge. He is probably the one who stands at the top among the top mage of mankind!
After gaining the power of the devil, Swain felt pressure for the first time, something he had never experienced with the pale lady!
Ryze was actually a little surprised. What he felt from Swain made him suppress what he originally planned to say, but this kind of thing was nothing compared to the world runes, so he only observed and did not judge the demonic power.
plan.
Swain broke the silence first: "I didn't expect Mage Ryze to appear in the Immortal Fortress. Could it be that there are world runes appearing in Noxus? If so, please take it away, Noxus will not covet it.
A catastrophic force."
"Thank you for being reasonable." Ryze shook his head and said: "But the world rune that appeared must have been taken by a certain mage. I caught its fluctuations twice, and twice it disappeared in a flash. I can be sure of it.
In this city, Commander Swain, have you noticed anything?"
This city? Make it your own?
Swain paused and became solemn, Pale Lady? Or... Sevier? Could it be that Sevier's power comes from the world runes?!
No, wait, wait, isn't this one of the pale lady's tricks?
Secretly, he didn't even notice the fluctuations of the world's runes... He looked at Ryze after careful consideration, was the rune mage in front of him really him?
The pale lady's doppelgänger?
No, it shouldn't be, but... Swain had various thoughts in his mind. No matter how he saw it, there was a 'fraud' here, and he didn't know how to respond.
