The hands were clapped by Lux, but the palms were drummed by Kalya.
While Kafu and Lukaba were talking, on the other side, Ino controlled the red-eyed Sephika, and Kalya took back a lot of his power. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lux finally got the message from the elder's mouth.
Understand the cause and effect of the whole thing.
Then Kafu ended all the grudges between him and Lucaba with one knife without hesitation.
Seeing this scene, Kalya did not hide her appreciation for Kraft at all, and Lacus also admired his persistence as always, so she clapped gently.
Facing Lacus's applause, after Kafu was stunned for a moment, a smile that was more bitter than crying appeared on his face.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, Kraft's final choice was neat and chic.
But only Kraft himself knew that after this incident, all his hard work in the first half of his life had turned into a dream.
Even if he did not give up his ideals as he said - the reality was that he had fallen out with the governor of Kenese.
One-fifth of the Camel Cavalry Regiment that he worked so hard to build and maintain to this day has been destroyed in front of him. It is still unclear how many of the remaining four-fifths are still willing to support him.
.
Lukaba's words were not enough to shake Kraft's persistence, but they also revealed a serious problem. Kraft's team had lost confidence in the future he described and expected.
The prestige and gains gained from breaking out of Bergun and blocking the Noxian trade route are no longer enough to support this team to continue. It only relies on Kraft's persistence to revive Shurima.
It's almost completely impossible.
Under this circumstance, Kraft needs to think carefully about where its future lies and what the path it wants to take looks like.
Therefore, for him, Lux's applause was not like a compliment, but more like a comfort.
"Thank you for your help." Kafu stood up and took the reins of Bai Yushuang, "Although I don't know your identity, without your help, I am afraid that neither I nor these oasis survivors will be able to escape today.
"
"Mr. Kraft, right?" Lux said with a smile, "Nice to meet you - I just heard the elder tell your story. He said that you are a descendant of the Eagle King and want to revive Shurima?"
"What descendant of the Eagle King?" After hearing Lux talk about this matter, the sadness on Kraft's face quickly faded and quickly turned into quite uncomfortable embarrassment, "That was just words hoping to persuade him to help... You
You should be able to tell that I am a shapechanger."
"The Lotran bloodline of the Vastayan people." Lux nodded, looking unsurprised, "You deny the first half, but you don't deny the second half. In other words, you really want to revive Shurima.
?”
Lux's words stunned Kraft for a moment. He never expected that this little girl who had only met him once would actually speak so directly.
Considering that the two people met by chance, this kind of questioning was even a little offensive.
However, after blinking, Kraft looked at the smiling little girl in front of him and nodded to admit it.
"Yes, I do think so." His voice turned from low to firm, seeming to be answering Lux and himself, "Restore Shurima."
"Then, can I ask, why do you want to revive Shurima?" Lux's face showed subtle curiosity, "My name is Laxana, you can call me Lux. I am a woman who has left her hometown and is living abroad.
A traveler from a faraway place just came from Piltover - oh, it should be called Vazuan now. Many big figures went there before. They gave many speeches on Planet Avenue, saying that they wanted to revive Shurima.
"
Lux's words caught Kraft off guard.
"I listened to many speeches." Following Kalya's prompts, Lux continued, "But to be honest, I didn't quite understand what they said - each of them spoke conclusively about reviving Shurima.
But I listened to it many times, and I don’t even know why Shurima should be revived.”
"... Piltover and Zaun re-formed Vazuan. I have also heard about this." After looking Lux up and down, out of the corner of his eye, he saw him running away to bring Scarash back.
Ino, Kraft reluctantly accepted Lux's claim to be a traveler, "But I'm afraid I don't know much about the big names you mentioned, so I'm afraid I can't answer your questions."
"Okay then." Lux nodded, "What about you? Why do you want to revive Shurima?"
Kraft narrowed his eyes slightly.
He had just witnessed Lux's light wings unfolding with his own eyes, so he was very sure that the young girl in front of him was not simple at all.
Although he didn't know why she asked him these questions, when the survivors of the oasis were cleaning the battlefield and burying the corpses, Kraft, who didn't want to see the death of his former comrades, simply chatted with Lux for a few more words.
"Probably, everyone has an ideal." Kraft finally gave a vague answer, "It's the kind of ideal... what you think the world should be like."
Lux nodded.
"In my opinion, the Shurima Empire described in the book when it was at its most prosperous is what I think the world should be like."
"Can you talk to me in detail about this?" Lux's face showed an expression of interest, "After I came to Shurima, I read a lot about the former Shurima Empire in the book.
But along the way, I felt that the real Shurima was far different from that empire. Are the Shurima in the book real?"
"Of course it is true." Kraft nodded, "At least in the library of Bergün, I have read a lot of historical materials. Although they were just regarded as stories at the beginning, the content and reality are
But they can all be matched one by one. Unless someone is extremely bored and forges relics and ruins based on these historical materials, otherwise by comparing the two, the true and false can naturally be distinguished at a glance..."
"That's right." Lux nodded, and followed Kalya's request, "So what I heard, that you can look for treasures by looking at history books, is all true?"
"Looking for treasures based on history books?" Kraft was obviously quite surprised when he heard what Lacus said. He seemed to be relieved, but also a little disappointed. After being stunned for a moment, he sighed helplessly, "Those who were detailed
The recorded treasures have probably been visited by countless people to this day, and the treasures that have not been discovered are also unknown in history - if someone uses this as a reason to want you to sell some hardcover or distressed ones,
The history books, believe me, according to them, the treasure cannot be found."
