For Kalya, it has almost become his instinct to use words to disturb the enemy in battle.
Provocation before the battle makes the enemy lose their mind, talking nonsense during the battle to disrupt the enemy's fighting rhythm, and killing people after the battle to enlarge the results. These are all Kalya's specialties.
But this time when facing Xerath, Kalya's words were truly inspired and told the truth.
He really envied Xerath for being able to master part of the power of the world's runes. If the Shurima Empire had also had this technology and mastered this power, then he would not have to be trapped in a resource trap and use all of it.
He focused all his energy on cultivating various rune trees, but ended up relaxing his focus on the separatist forces in Icasia...
However, after Xerath obtained this power, he used it to formally restore the country and resurrect Azir. This undoubtedly made Kalya feel quite regretful, and then he said this paragraph "What is forgiveness?"
Rhema" words.
This passage is undoubtedly a very heavy blow to Xerath - when a person who is committed to reviving Shurima loses the battle and is about to lose the support for the restoration of the country, he is also completely rejected by the creator of Shurima.
In the real world, it is easy to be beaten to despair.
However, Xerath's frustration did not last long.
Although the reason for reviving Shurima was criticized by Kalya and was worthless, there was another reason why he worked so hard.
After Kalya had almost complete control over the rules of the Warp, Xerath finally spoke.
"So, do you know what this power means?"
What is the meaning of strength?
"What is it?"
"Follow me." Xerath looked at Kalya, and then finally opened a hidden passage, "Come, come with me to meet Azir."
……………………
In this space hidden by Xerath, Kalya finally saw Azir's coffin.
That's right, Azir was being placed in a gorgeous coffin at this time, and this huge coffin became more familiar to Kalya the more he looked at it.
"Where did you find it?" He circled the coffin twice, and after confirming that it was the coffin he knew, he finally asked Xerath with a subtle expression, "If I'm not mistaken... it
Maybe you should lie in my tomb."
That's right, this large coffin was actually prepared by Kalya for himself.
For Kalya, the Battle of Icathia should have been his farewell performance. Kalya, who was determined to die, was ready to end everything, but after the battle, Shurima still needed him to maintain the situation. In the end,
He gave up sealing himself in this special coffin, but dragged the dark descendant's body with him, and continued to barely maintain the empire's apparent calm until reason could no longer persist.
The exquisite coffin in front of him was what Karl Adam had originally prepared for himself. It contained a large number of complex sealing spells. As long as he lay down in it, it would not take long for him to stop thinking and end everything.
But now, Kalya discovered that the coffin he had prepared for himself had actually become the coffin carrying Azir, which undoubtedly surprised him.
"This is what Azir found." There was a hint of irony in Xerath's tone, "Furthermore, he also started researching on the resurrection spell."
"?"
Kalya really didn't expect that.
"Using blood as a guide to resurrect ancestors, this is what Azir has been studying hard." Xerath's eyes shining with arcane light looked at Kalya calmly, as if looking forward to his reaction, "He spent
After a long time, I found the records about your tomb among the scattered auspicious light, and it took a lot of effort to find this coffin - but you are not in it."
Kalya didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Azir wants to resurrect you very much." Seemingly satisfied with Kalya's condition, Xerath's tone finally became a little more happy, "He thinks that my vision is not broad enough, and that Nasus is too conservative.
, thinks Renekton is very reckless, and if he wants to revive Shurima, he needs a reliable think tank."
"He wants to resurrect his ancestor and serve as his staff?" Kalya finally couldn't help but shook his head and said, "This is really outrageous."
"To be exact, it's not just you." Xerath corrected him very seriously, "It also includes the Weaver Mother, including Her Excellency Varieva, and many other fallen or missing Ascended Ones - since Shurima is to be revived
, then is there a more direct method than resurrecting these people?"
Kalya was stunned.
Even though he was as well-informed as he was, after listening to Xerath talk about Azir's "Shurima Restoration Plan", his brain was still somewhat shut down.
You said this plan is impossible. If he can really resurrect these people and free them from the problem of void infection, Shurima is really likely to be revived.
You say this plan is very possible, but the question is, how can we be resurrected, and how can we break the boundaries between life and death, temporary and eternal?
Brilliant imagination is no longer enough to describe Azir’s plan!
"At that time, the empire's talent was withering, and its land area was shrinking. The issue of the share of the sun disk that once troubled the empire was no longer an obstacle." Xerath continued, "Even if it reshapes everyone's body, the empire
I can bear it just as well.”
"Then he chose to ascend himself first?"
"It's also to ascend me." Xerath was silent for a moment, and finally gave the answer, "The empire is in a difficult situation. Apart from the royal family, there is nothing left. Azir has always wanted to liberate the slaves, but his health is also not good. He is worried about the future.
It’s not a holiday, so he just took the risk.”
Kalya was silent.
He didn't fully know what the Shurima Empire was like in Azir's era.
But he knows better than anyone else what it's like to live without a holiday.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After a long while, Kalya finally changed the topic.
"So, why did he lie in it?"
"Because he can't die." Xerath gave a cruel answer, "The ascension ceremony failed, but it was not a complete failure. Azir failed to obtain his ascended body, but his soul has been obtained.
immortal……"
Xerath did not continue, but Kalya already understood the reason.
Just as Karla thought when he decided to make this coffin - with his body gone but his soul still immortal, he was destined to be unable to usher in true death and unable to rest completely.
That's why Kalya made this coffin and prepared countless sealing spells in it, hoping that after lying in it, he could stop thinking and gain eternal peace.
Even if you can't rest in peace, at least you don't have to fall into endless torture.
Although Azir was not infected by the void, his state was somewhat similar to Kalya - his soul was immortal but his body was broken.
"Why didn't he choose an elemental body?" After thinking for a moment, Kalya continued to ask, "He has not been infected by the void, and his consciousness is still clear. In this case, the elemental body should be enough to support him to move freely."
"But an elemental life will not be supported by the Shuriman people." Xerath shook his head, "Especially when this elemental life has just destroyed the city of Shurima."
Kalya narrowed her eyes.
"Moreover, Azir is not good at magic." Xerath continued, "For him, it is too difficult to shape an elemental body, and it may fall apart at any time."
Kalya nodded.
"Silly boy." Kalya sighed softly and stretched out her hand, gently stroking the coffin in front of her. "It seems that his character is a little too anxious... He is really similar to her."
"Impatient and wrong." Xerath snorted, his tone seemed to be dissatisfied, "If he hadn't insisted, maybe the name here would no longer be South Shurima."
"Well said, but you are still trying to inherit everything in Shurima." Kalya saw through Xerath's words, "Don't blame everything on the Silent Man, maybe Azir insists on reviving Shurima.
Ma, you are willing to look forward compared to him - but Mr. Xerath, who is looking forward, is still reluctant to let go of Shurima's glorious past."
"..."
Kalya's words choked Xerath.
Then, while Xerath was still rummaging to defend himself and trying to say something, long stretches of yellow sand poured out of Kalya's hands and wrapped the coffin in a moment.
The next moment, ripples appeared in the space, and the coffin disappeared in front of Xerath.
"What are you doing?"
"I still have some ways to maintain the stability of my soul." Kalya put on his mask, and the simple facial features on the mask put together a forced smile, "I will handle this matter well - the next words
, we are going to talk about your problem."
"There's nothing wrong with me anymore." Xerath snorted, "I feel fine."
"If you feel good, you won't fail outside Shurima City." Kalya shook his head, "That's not how the power of the world runes is used. You are too impatient."
"So you want to take away this power?" Xerath's attitude suddenly became subtle. On his chest, the world runes beating like a heart shone dangerously, "Old guy,
Do you know what you're talking about?"
"If the significance of this dangerous and uncontrollable power is to resurrect Azir and revive Shurima." Kalya did not care at all about the threat in Xerath's words, "Then I think you should give up temporarily.
Get rid of it, at least until you can control this power."
"Ridiculous." Xerath sneered, "Since you know the battle outside Shurima City, you should understand that there is no turning back on this road - power always has its price, and I chose this subspace as
A place of self-sealing, this is already the best choice."
“Not the best.”
"Then what does it count?"
After saying that, Xerath looked at Ryze.
"I've heard of you, a young man who is running around collecting world runes. Your name is Ryze, right?"
Ryze blinked. He didn't expect that Xerath would actually know about him.
"It seems that the Rune War scared you a lot, right?" Xerath looked at Ryze, "So you want to hide these powerful runes in a place where people can't find them, right?
?”
Ryze defaults.
“But I still found them.”
"The sun disk can be controlled, but the world runes cannot." Ryze was very serious. "I have seen countless people become puppets of power after getting the world runes, and even turned into complete monsters——
"
"But I came into contact with them much earlier than you." Xerath interrupted Ryze impatiently, "Don't show your attitude when facing those mortals who don't understand what power is. There is always power.
Price, I have read this sentence in no less than two hundred books."
"As long as you are freed from the suppression of subspace, you will still lose control." Ryze seemed not to hear the sarcasm in Xerath's words, "It is not a power you can control."
"You also said that it was after leaving the subspace." Xerath grasped the premise of Ryze's words, "As long as I stay here, you don't need to worry about the world runes."
"You won't stay here forever." Ryze said firmly, "Especially after Azir's coffin is put away."
Ryze was right. Regarding this issue, Xerath did not bother to lie and hide it.
"As long as I don't meet a nosy dog-head, I won't use that power."
"As long as you cannot fully grasp it, you should not use it no matter what the situation is." Ryze refuted without hesitation, "And as long as you are not careful, this power will become the introduction to the destruction of Runeterra..."
"Don't think that I am any of the ordinary people you are used to seeing..."
"Everyone is the same in the face of uncontrollable forces..."
"For everyone, uncontrollable forces are never the same thing..."
"But for anyone, the world runes are an uncontrollable force. There is no doubt about this..."
Kalya stopped talking, and instead, Xerath and Ryze started arguing with each other.
It's interesting to say that both Xerath and Ryze usually have the attitude of "there are absolutely not many BBs who can do it" when it comes to the world's runes.
But in front of Kalya, these two guys miraculously did not fight, but tried to prove their correctness with words.
What’s interesting is that despite the heated atmosphere of this verbal debate, neither Xerath nor Ryze’s goal is to convince the other party.
Their goal from the beginning was to convince Kalja.
As long as Kalya agrees with the views of either party, the other party will completely lose room for resistance.
And Kalya seemed to have planned all this from the beginning - when Ino finally realized the situation in front of him, he had already moved a chair out of nowhere and sat lazily on the spot.
On the mask, between the eyebrows and eyes, there are all perfectly planned curves.
