In Forsbarrow, Jax was cautiously making final preparations - the difficult experiences and bad luck in the past few years had made him cautious and careful, and he made sure everything was done.
He even considered every word Lux might say, carefully preparing his response every word, just hoping that there would be no problems at all.
Such exaggeration is not because he is neurotic, but because during the period of preparing a feasible investigation, Jax's luck is really bad. In order to avoid any unplanned mishaps, he is used to preparing everything thoroughly.
The last time he came to Forsbarrow, Jax didn't find it difficult when faced with Lux's request for a feasible report.
Although Jax himself is not very good at this kind of writing work, after the destruction of Icathia, now among the ruins of Icathia, Kiran's time barrier still protects many of the last essence of Icathia. They
There is always someone among them who can complete this report.
Based on the above judgment, Jax believes that he will return to Forsbarrow in at least half a year, get a promise from the prince's heir, and break the substantial blockade of Icathia.
However, facts have proven that issuing a feasibility report seems to be doomed to many twists and turns.
First, before Jax could return to Icathia, several outsiders recklessly broke into Zilean's time barrier.
If it weren't for actually meeting these two people, Jax would simply not believe that an outsider could pass through the veil of time and trigger the mystery of time without knowing anything about Icathia.
However, this was not a big problem originally. With Kieran presiding over and controlling it, the Mystery of Time was quickly restarted smoothly, and the Time Curtain was successfully repaired. However, due to the restart of the Mystery of Time, Icathia's time flow
Again there was a moment of confusion.
During the period of time chaos in Icathia, Jax conveyed Lux's request to the Icathia Autonomous Council and received a lot of technical support. When he felt that he was completely prepared,
Jax confidently determined that although it would take some time, he would be able to return to Forsbarrow in a year at most.
In this way, Jax followed the little yellow hair who claimed to be the "Great Guide" and left Icathia, heading to Vazuan via Ixtar.
This road was chosen by the little yellow hair. He said that walking through the jungle was closer than walking in the desert. Although this little yellow hair didn't seem too reliable, considering that he had gone through
With the ability of Time Veil, Jax believed his words.
Moreover, this Mr. Ezreal also provided Jax with a surprising piece of information: In Vazuan, there are many professional organizations present regarding the feasibility investigation, so Jax does not have to escort a civilian figure thousands of miles away.
From Icathia to Vazuan, all you need to do is travel lightly with yourself!
After receiving the news, Jax was in a very good mood and became optimistic about his next trip again.
I had been wasting too long waiting for the time lock to be repaired, and now I had to act as quickly as possible!
However, Jax did not realize at all what "haste makes waste" - and he did not expect that this "great guide" was a completely curious baby.
Not only was Jax himself annoyed by his endless questions along the way, but what was even worse was that his strong curiosity was aroused to the greatest extent after entering the jungle of Ixtal.
In this devouring jungle, it seemed that all animals and plants were new to him. Jax watched helplessly as he filled his backpack with simple specimens of various flowers and fruits, writing a book full of them.
This diary is like a piece of waste paper, recording the experiences of the two people in every detail...
More importantly, although this little yellow man's performance in the desert was truly worthy of the name of a guide, after entering the rainforest, he seemed to have no understanding of the place - under Jax's unbearable questioning, he
Only then did he admit that “although he had entered the rainforest, it was only the “edge zone” in the north of the Kumanggu jungle.
What a hell, the guide we promised turned out to be a drag!
If it's just a drag bottle, it's not really a big problem.
Considering that Mr. Ezreal is at least a Vazuan and a professional explorer, Jax agreed because his curiosity wasted some time in exchange for the convenience of moving in Vazuan.
After all, after all these years, where has Jax not been?
Even if there is an extra curious baby, Jax's pace will not be slowed down, and he can complete the report on time!
Then, Jax soon realized that he was naive.
After a lot of effort, the two finally passed through the Miasma Jungle and arrived at Ixoken, the capital of Ixtal, ready to repair and continue their journey north. Mr. Ezreal met by chance.
By chance, he was involved in the whirlpool of succession to the Kingdom of Ixtar.
Jax really racked his brain and couldn't figure out why a little yellow guy who just came to Ixoken the day before would become a good friend of the seventh princess of Ixtal in just one day, and for the sake of
She stepped forward and took the initiative to challenge Qiyana, the tenth princess of Ixtal who had recently become famous...
If Jax hadn't come to help, this little yellow guy would have been completely destroyed by the violent elemental power controlled by Qiyana!
Worried that his action would cause an overreaction from Ixtal, after saving Xiao Huangmao with two swords, Jax took his luggage and planned to leave Ixoken early, but he never dreamed of it
, not long after he left the city, the seventh princess of Ixtar also followed him with several personal followers.
The excited little girl pestered Ezreal and even said "I can wander to the ends of the earth with you", which made Jax's pupils tremble.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Dear Princess Ixtar, you must be blind, right?
No matter what, Jax couldn't figure out why this brat who only asked questions along the way was able to enchant the seventh princess of Ixtal. Is it because of his face?
Shaking his head slightly, Jax didn't think about it for the time being, but urged Ezreal to leave quickly.
"Either leave with me, or stay in Ixtar forever!"
After Ezreal heard this, he quickly made a decision and quickly got rid of the Seventh Princess. Although the other party really planned to elope with him impulsively, Xiao Huangmao had no idea of driving a big car.
It's a pity that even if Ezreal reacted quickly and didn't delay in any way, Qiyana still followed the sound of this short delay.
Then, just when Jax began to think about whether to give up the trouble of Xiao Huangmao, Qiyana came to him.
That's right, Qiyana was not interested in the weak little yellow hair, nor did she consider her stupid and ignorant Seventh Sister to be her opponent. She hurried all the way here, her main target being Jax.
"Pick up your weapons." After the soldiers loyal to her completely surrounded Jax and the others, Qiyana stood up and walked out, "Your double-sword fighting skills are not bad, but they are not as good as Ixtar.
You are so amazing and talented, the previous battle is not over yet!"
If it were another time, Jax would be happy to have a discussion with her and let her understand that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world.
But the current situation is too delicate, and Jax himself has missions, so he doesn't intend to deal with this arrogant tenth princess.
Unfortunately, he didn't want to talk to Qiyana, but Qiyana seemed to recognize him - no matter what Jax said, as long as he didn't agree to fight Qiyana, he couldn't even think of leaving Ixocan.
Considering his mission, Jax felt that he might be able to "lose his strength" once and satisfy this little girl's strong desire for challenge.
Just like that, a duel began.
Jax still uses double swords. As the weapon master of Icathia and a Kauali warrior, he is proficient in many kinds of weapons, including double swords. Even if he does not like this weapon, it does not prevent him from using it in the future.
Here comes a decent loss to Qiyana.
Just like that, a battle began.
Qiyana seemed like a peacock with its tail spread open. While fighting Jax, she showed off her amazing talents with all her strength, as if she wanted to impress Jax and let him work for her.
However, she obviously did not realize that although this level of talent was not bad, in Jax's eyes, it was not amazing at all. In Jax's eyes, he had witnessed the final glory of the Shurima Empire.
From Si's point of view, Qiyana's talent...if you want to become an ascendant, you need to wait in line slowly, and there is a high chance that you won't be able to make it.
While silently evaluating this unruly princess, Jax followed his own plan and lost to Qiyana very honorably.
Then, just when he thought he had satisfied the other party's requirements and could leave, Qiyana issued an order to him to pledge allegiance to her, and it was the kind that meant death if you didn't pledge allegiance.
"Since you lost, the loser should be dominated by the winner."
Looking at the soldiers with their weapons revealed, and Qiyana brewing a huge elemental power, Jax finally realized that he didn't know enough about the savagery of this princess.
In desperation, Jax could only come up with something real - while Qiyana was dumbfounded, he easily found the "amazingly talented" weakness in the magical structure, and easily turned the entire violent spell into
He caught a gust of wind and defeated Qiyana in three moves, even taking away her ring blade.
"Arrogance is the biggest obstacle to becoming powerful." Jax dropped the ring blade decorated with gems and covered with complex magic circuits on the ground. "Amazing talent and beauty? You are still far away..."
As the winner, Jax left Isuoken smoothly, and Xiao Huangmao, who quickly followed him, also got rid of the Seventh Princess.
But Qiyana was not easily thrown away - after being easily defeated by Jax, she clung to him, hoping to learn something from his hands.
After seeing how difficult the other party was, Jax had no intention of showing his hand at all and just wanted to leave as soon as possible.
The two sides ran and chased, and soon entered the jungle, and then Jax discovered that this tenth princess actually mastered many primitive axioms about plants.
Jax is strong, but ultimately he's not a spellcaster.
Xiao Huangmao said that he was a great guide, but he was just a rookie in the rain forest.
Therefore, when this group faced the stubborn Qiyana in the jungle, they were completely unable to escape for a while.
Every time she caught up with Jax, Qiyana would challenge him, and was easily defeated every time, but even so, she was still unwilling to give up.
Jax is not a person who drags his feet. If Qiyana was not the tenth princess of Ixtal, he would have killed her long ago. However, she is the tenth heir to Ixtal, and Icacia is also planning
He couldn't kill someone on a trade route. As a result, he had to face Qiyana's challenge every three days. The trip to the rainforest, which was already slow, was even more delayed...
In addition, Xiao Huangmao began to take the opportunity to collect specimens and write a travel diary. When Jax finally walked out of the Kumanggu jungle and arrived at Kumangla, the one year he had planned to spend had already passed.
More than half has passed.
After finally getting rid of Qiyana, Jax took a boat from Kumangla to arrive at Wazuan, and began to hire someone to write this feasibility report. Then, in order to make the report more detailed and more impressive to the prince
Heir, he hired Vazuan's most professional investigation team to conduct this investigation.
However, when he asked about the price of issuing an investigation report, Jax felt embarrassed.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! He brought a lot of money, but even so, there is still a long way to go before hiring this team - Wazuan's top firm, price
Ridiculously expensive.
Just when Jax was about to settle for the next best thing and switch to a less top-notch firm, Xiao Huangmao confidently said, "I'll pay for it."
Could it be that in addition to being an explorer, Ezreal is also a second-generation rich man?
Facing Jax's question, Xiao Huangmao said, "It's not a big problem. My travel diary will be published soon. This kind of book is the most popular in Vazuan. I will have a lot of money soon."
"Think about it, Mr. Jax." Ezreal said in a seductive tone, "You have already completed the most troublesome steps ahead, why do you need to do the less troublesome but most critical part next?
Why settle for the next best thing because of a trivial financial issue?"
Eventually, Jax was convinced by Ezreal,
On the one hand, this is because he is unwilling to fool around with the most critical aspect of the investigation report, and on the other hand, it is because he also believes that Xiao Huangmao's travel notes should sell well.
According to Ezreal, his travel diary will be divided into two volumes. The first volume is "Twenty Thousand Miles of Yellow Sand", which travels in the desert, and the second volume is "Dark Green Ocean" which travels through the rainforest.
, as a witness to the journey, after reading through Ezreal's notes, Jax had to admit that the content was very detailed and the story was very exciting. Compared with the works that Vazuan was selling, it was completely overwhelming.
advantages.
Therefore, with the mentality of not being fooled, he decided to wait for another month or two, and after receiving Xiao Huangmao's royalties, he hired Wazuan's senior firm to issue a feasibility report on the new trade route.
In this way, Jax waited for three months in Wazuan, and Xiao Huangmao's royalties had not yet arrived.
Confused, Jax found Ezreal and asked him what was going on, and then received a piece of news that was a bolt from the blue:
Xiao Huangmao’s travelogue was rejected!
"This is just a technical adjustment..." Ezreal said helplessly, but still very confident, "I just need to polish it a bit!"
"Are all the editors in Vazuan blind? Even if it's just a manuscript, your travel notes are ten thousand times better than the junk on the market - wait, what is this?"
"This is the seventh edition of the manuscript."
"You wrote it?"
"yes."
"..."
Holding the seventh edition of the manuscript that Ezreal was planning to submit, Jax covered his face in pain as he looked at the narcissism and meaningless rhetoric that almost overflowed from the lines.
No wonder I had to submit the manuscript!!!
Even if you submit the original manuscript of your travel diary, it would be better than this mess of narcissistic travel diary!!!
