While Taric, a serious man, was writing a diary for Demacia's future Shurima trade, Ino, another diary professional in Forth Barrow, returned to Forth after being away from home for several years.
Byro.
Compared with when he set out, Ino, who has been wandering for three years, has obviously matured a lot.
In addition to maturity, the biggest change in Ino is the sharpness that cannot be ignored at first glance - if Ino was once an iceberg with most of it hidden under water, Leng Mian is now
It just gives people a sense of distance, but now this iceberg has successfully landed and became an endless glacier.
From following Lux's will to needing to make her own decisions, this change caused Ino, who was accustomed to being a secretary and assistant, to completely lose her little affinity. Now she is energetic, sharp-tongued, and treats others.
He is not indifferent, but he is awe-inspiring when seen, and he has a somewhat calm and authoritative aura.
To use an inappropriate metaphor, Ino now looks more and more like a war mother of the Freljord tribe!
Seeing Ino's current appearance, Lux was happy for her on the one hand, but also quite distressed on the other. In Lux's eyes, Ino was the demon-infected person who was so scared that she wanted to take all the responsibility after being threatened.
She was the little girl who was worried about her parents and brother holding her in bed and crying silently after leaving home. She was the secretary-general who kept everything in order when she was in Wazuan, even though she just kept a straight face most of the time.
But that's just a protective color because she's not very good at getting along with others.
And now, although Ino's face is still as cold as ice, every move, word and deed always makes Lux see a bit of Kalya's style...
My dear teacher, look what you have taught Ino!
After Ino returned, Fosbairo prepared a small but extremely grand welcome ceremony for her. Those who had returned with the Ionia expedition also received invitations, and all the traveling personnel gathered together.
Come together to commemorate the complete success of this operation.
At the dinner after the welcome ceremony, Sona rarely performed on stage in person, which directly pushed the atmosphere of the banquet to the climax. The envoys shared all kinds of experiences; those who stayed behind told about the changes in Forsbarrow, and finally some people even rushed to the banquet.
Magic fireworks were set off on the balcony!
It was night, and the night sky in Forsbarrow was colorfully illuminated by various magics. Although the citizens didn't know why, they still chose to raise their heads and admire the rare magical fireworks.
Under the instigation of the clerks, the representatives of various ranks of the Battle Mage Corps competed with each other in the patterns and colors of the magic fireworks, while the Northern Walkers clapped and applauded on the side, like fair judges, deciding which one
The sequence of fireworks is the most beautiful...
The result was that after the banquet was over, the clerks had stuffed their stomachs, the mages set off fireworks until their mana was exhausted, and the Northern Walkers clapped their hands until their hands were red and swollen. Fortunately, tomorrow is a day off, otherwise there would have been
Many people were forced to take sick leave.
Finally, when everyone returned home satisfied, Lux had the opportunity to hold Ino's hand and ask her in detail about her experiences and gains along the way, and most importantly, why she returned early.
Yes, Ino came back early. According to her previous correspondence with Lux, she should not come back until this time next year. But not long ago, she specifically sent a message saying that she would come back early, and she also gave up.
He chose a special ship, chose to take a merchant ship, and returned in a hurry - there must be a reason for this.
"Things are more complicated." When talking about this issue, Ino's expression finally became serious, "The main reason is that I had contact with the Balance Sect in Ionia, and then got some things from them... It sounds ridiculous.
, but it is a prophecy that makes people worried.”
"Prophecy?" Lux was stunned, "Do you believe in such a thing?"
"This is what the Equilibrium Sect says." Ino shrugged, "They say this is a prophecy and a guide to destiny, but in my opinion, this should be a conclusion reached through logical reasoning. The one called the Eye of Twilight
Although this guy is mysterious and doesn't speak human words, what he said about "the will of the world is awakening" makes me really worried."
"The will of the world is awakening. What a weird rhetoric." When Lux first heard the Riddler's remarks that were characteristic of the Kinkou sect, she couldn't help but frown like Ino, "
Is this a borrowed finger?"
"If I understand correctly." Ino's expression became completely serious when he mentioned this topic, "It's very likely... the world rune."
……………………
Let's go back in time a little, to when Ino was traveling in Ionia.
For Ino, Ionia is a wonderful place that is hard to describe - the more she learns about it, the more she marvels at the fertility of the Ionian land, and the more she marvels at the Ionian people.
Mud cannot hold up a wall.
The Noxians were defeated in Presidian and suffered a heavy blow in Tobitsia. Now they are all reduced to lean camels. At this juncture, the Ionians still have no intention of completely regaining their lost territory.
Meaning, a small Noxian army without any backup was allowed to occupy Philo Island...
It’s really hopeless!
And because Ino came to Ionia through the Shadow Stream, and the Shadow Stream broke away from the Kinkou Sect, so when Ino received an invitation from the Kinkou Sect asking her to talk, she just threw it away.
Got that thing.
Going to visit the Kinkou?
Go to hell!
What's there to talk about with these insects?
However, on the fifth night after Ino lost the invitation, just when she finished visiting the famous night market in Onkuwo and returned to the hotel to rest, there was an astonishing magic wave coming from the hotel suite.
Ino immediately heightened her vigilance, and then she saw a crack appear in the space, and a masked man walked out of the crack and came to her.
"Miss Ino, don't be nervous." The other party nodded slightly and saluted, with a voice as low as the earth, "Fate guides us to meet."
"It turns out that the fate of Ionians is to enter the room of a stranger of the opposite sex at night without warning." Ino sneered mercilessly while mobilizing his magic power. "This is really an amazing fate. It makes people
Eye-opening.”
"Although we have not met, we are not strangers." Unexpectedly, the other party responded very calmly and positively to Ino's unrelenting sarcasm, "Moreover, I had sent out the invitation early, but unfortunately Ino
The lady did not attend the appointment."
Hearing what the other party said, Ino finally understood a little bit. She slightly raised her silver eyebrows and looked up and down at the person in front of her with her blue eyes.
The split martial arts uniform with Ionian characteristics is tightened at the collar and ankles so as not to hinder movement and fighting.
Wearing a belt and gauntlets made of some unknown metal, and a mask with neither joy nor sorrow, this man looked somewhat similar to the Zed that Ino had seen.
"So, you are Shen?" Realizing this, Ino couldn't help but shake his head and snorted, "I don't remember that I ever agreed to accept your invitation."
"Since the fateful encounter has been destined, it has nothing to do with whether you accept it or not." Shen shook his head, "Moreover, Miss Ino, I believe that after you hear what I say next, you will definitely forgive me for my presumption."
"Boring talk." Ino waved his hand, "Hurry up, I'm going to take a bath after I finish talking."
"The will of the world is awakening." Shen's voice remained calm, "Past disputes have proven that involving the mortal world in a realm where they should not exist is not a good choice."
"What are you talking about?" What the Riddler said made Ino couldn't help showing an expression like [old man, subway, mobile phone.JPG]. She couldn't help but rub her temples, "In your Balance Sect
, is it a violation of the precepts to speak well?"
"...This is the prophecy." Shen, who was choked by Ino, paused for a moment, and then explained dryly, "As for the specific understanding, I'm afraid I can't overstep your bounds."
"Is this very important... a prophecy?"
"Very important." Shen nodded, his attitude seemed to be more serious, "This is the guidance of the stars."
"Very good." Seeing Shen's seriousness, Ino finally nodded with satisfaction, "Then, if you don't want your prophecy to be stuffed into the trash can like your invitation, tell me clearly what it is.
What does it portend - at least let me figure out what you want to express!"
Shen has never met such a person.
Although the Kinkou Sect is in decline, when Shen uses "the guidance of the stars" as a guarantee, even Kalya needs to listen and think carefully.
On the contrary, this foreigner even put on a somewhat threatening posture in order to get to the bottom of the dispute...
It happened that Ino could not care about the prophecy, but Shen could not. So, after a moment of silence, he told Ino about the guidance from the stars that was similar to this prophecy and that the Kinkou Sect had received in the past.
After listening to these stories, Ino finally became serious.
If Shen did not lie, and the ancient books he took out were not falsified, the "Guidance of the Stars" accepted by the Kinkou Sect had foreshadowed the outbreak of the Darkin War and the Rune War.
Considering that Ionia was very successful in staying out of the two turmoils and was hardly affected, I am afraid that all this may be true!
Under this situation, no matter how dissatisfied Ino is with this mysterious guy, he can't really throw away this prophecy like he threw away the previous invitation letter.
And, more importantly, according to Shen, when the Rune War was about to break out, the content of the prophecy at that time was that "the will of the world is sprouting, and arrogant mortals are igniting their homes with power they do not understand."
If we look at the correspondence, what corresponds to the "will of the world" in the prophecy is probably the world rune!
At this moment, Ino thought of the short trip he had taken with Ryze.
Brand was eroded by the will of the world's runes...
The world runes were quietly born within the seal...
Based on the prophecy sent by Shen, Ino suddenly felt a sincere worry.
Could it be that the second rune war is about to begin?
However, Ino was someone who had been carefully educated by Kalya for many years. After a moment of shock, she quickly calmed down.
Although Kalya was not around, Ino, who came back to his senses, soon burst into laughter, as if he heard Kalya mocking himself: "Such vague words can make you afraid. You have really learned from dogs in these years."
Gone!"
"So, this is a piece of persuasion?"
"Then I don't know." On this critical judgment, Shen just shook his head slightly, "The trajectory of fate is always vague and clear, difficult to completely grasp, just like I will see you, but I don't know
Do you accept the invitation, or am I forced to come?"
"That's because you have the ability to visit." After reacting, Ino finally regained his composure. "If you didn't have this ability, then I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to say anything about [fate's guidance], right?"
"If I don't have the ability to visit, then naturally it won't be me who meets Miss Ino." Shen said in a matter-of-fact tone, "This is obvious."
Ino rolled her eyes when she heard this. She finally discovered that this Mr. Eye of Twilight seemed not to be much different from the missionary of the Sun Sect that she had seen in Shurima, at least when it came to persuading others.
They all like to block both ends based on preset conditions.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Okay, okay, I received this prophecy." Seeing Shen still standing there, Ino finally couldn't help but waved his hand, "Alright.
Is there anything else?"
"Miss Ino is not the only person with destiny." Shen continued, "In addition to you, there are also your teachers and your sisters. This is a reminder to everyone."
After saying this, Shen took a step back, then bowed slightly, and then, in Ino's shocked eyes, a tangible and invisible blade appeared in his hand. He controlled this soul blade like
The cook cut through the cracks in the space like a bull, and he quickly escaped into the spiritual world, disappearing in the blink of an eye without any delay.
Under this situation, Ino felt that he could no longer stay in Ionia, so he simply set off early and left Ionia.
……………………
"So, this is the reason why you came back early?" After listening to Ino's story, Kalya's heart moved slightly, "It's really interesting, the world runes are ready to move, don't involve mortals... Is there someone behind the Kinkou Sect?
Is he also a giant?"
"Titan?!" x2
"No, it's not the Titan." Kalya later denied this speculation, "This is not the style of the Titan. Those bastards of the Titan don't have such good intentions... Wait a minute, Titan, kindhearted... kind-hearted Titan?"
The next moment, while Lux and Ino were confused, Kalya finally burst out laughing.
"I know who it is, hahaha, it's so interesting, she finally gave up on those insects!"
Then, just when Kalya was about to explain to Lux and Ino, the fire suddenly flickered outside, and there was a noise from the exit of the Shadow Realm guarded by the first sequence.
