When Kalya found Varus, he had already regained some of his sanity.
Although the desire to kill has not completely subsided, Varus finally became more awake because all the void bugs around him that could be killed by him had been killed long ago.
At least when he saw Kalya, he didn't attack immediately - he just stood quietly in the darkness holding a long bow, silently and without saying a word.
It was like when Kalya saw him for the first time.
At that time, Varus was a "special recruit". Unlike those who were promoted on the professional track, he even entered Shurima University based on his meritorious service while serving in the army and his ability.
Known for his superb archery skills.
Therefore, when Kalya saw him for the first time, he looked like this, standing silently and alone far away from the crowd.
This is completely opposite to her sister Varieva. Anyone who knows them would find it difficult to accept that Varieva, who is polite and well-rounded, is actually the same mother as Varus, who is always silently looking for corners.
.
The main reason for the difference between the two is that they grew up in completely different environments - Varieva, who has shown a good talent as a problem solver since she was a child, is the main training target of the family.
"child" kind.
Varus was the one who was helplessly eliminated. In Shurima, which had a complete promotion route, Varus was destined to have no talent in learning magic, so after completing basic education, he went to join the army.
No one could have imagined that the brother and sister would finally meet again at Shurima University. One was admitted by force, and the other was admitted for training based on military merit.
Moreover, even among those who have obtained advanced training qualifications due to military merit, Varus is a very special person - he is young and can really learn.
For most people who enter Shurima University because of military merit, they come here either for resumes or to obtain the qualifications for ascension. Few people, like Varus, will study magic here with a sincere eye.
.
It was precisely because of Varus' solid eyes that his talent was discovered. Facts have proved that it is not that he has no talent, but that his talent is too biased, and the power of withering and corruption is really too much.
In the underworld, generally no one wants to study it. If he hadn't had the opportunity to come to Shurima University, Varus might not have had the chance to obtain the power of blight.
Now, in the dark underground cavity, next to the corpses of countless void worms, Kalya saw Varus again.
"Are you okay, kid?" Kalya took off his mask, "You look like you're not in a good mood. Do you want to tell you a joke?"
Varus looked at Teacher Kalya in front of him blankly.
He didn't know if it was reality or an illusion.
Or maybe, after countless years of pain, he finally came to his true end, and Teacher Kalya really became the God of Death and came to pick him up.
But no matter what the reason was, Varus chose to nod lightly.
"Don't talk too coldly, I don't like homophonic jokes."
Hearing what Varus said, Kalya laughed first.
"There once was a student who did an experiment to prove that sand lizards can hear sounds with their feet——"
"Cut off the legs of the sand lizard and ring the bell, and it won't run away. Teacher Kalya, this joke is a bit too corny even for a three thousand year old man."
"No, after the last plan was rejected, he chose to attach the sand lizard's legs to the snake's body to see if it would hear the bell and run away."
Varus blinked, not understanding the point of this cold joke.
"That's what Varieva did." Kalya sighed, "Religion is not the only thing that can fight religion."
Varus glanced at Kalya, then shook his head slightly.
"Let's go, you should have recovered, right?" Kalya waved to him, "Come out with me!"
"Teacher Kalya, you have lost your immortality." Varus did not immediately get up and follow Kalya away, but as if he had discovered something magical, "How did you do it?"
"Give up your power." Karya said concisely and concisely, "Strip away everything, including your power, and then gradually grow old as an ordinary person."
"Can I do that too?"
"It should be possible, but I don't recommend it now." Kalya shrugged, "Those guys on Mount Targon are not easy to talk to. It may be a bit difficult to trick another fool into helping."
"Then what should I do?"
"If you are still willing to believe me, I will take you to see Aatrox." Kalya put on the mask, "It is better for immortals to stay in the land of the immortal."
Varus obviously didn't know what the Land of the Undying was. In his impression, Aatrox was one of the first people to leave Shurima. He heard that he went to Kamavia, and then gradually disappeared.
——Many dark descendants are like this. Some were completely sealed by the cunning protoss, while others lost their immortality for some reason. No one knows where they went.
From what Kalya said, it seems that he has already met Aatrox and thinks that the undead land he is in now is more suitable for dark descendants?
However, Varus is willing to go and have a look.
He has messed up the affairs of the Sun God Sect. If nothing else happens, Xu Yuyan should have awakened the next pope, right?
……………………
Varus's guess was correct.
Just when Kalya found him, the sun and the moon finally achieved the great reconciliation of the century.
Then, under the comprehensive siege of La Horak, Moon Warriors and Demacia army, Nasramei, who had doubts about the Sun Cult, finally fell.
Port Governor Black, who refused Xu Yuyan's help, took a boat to Kalduja to take refuge on the day the city was destroyed.
Under this situation, Xu Yuyan had no choice but to lead the elite Kayawiya of the Sun God Cult to break out from the east of the city, and after paying a moderate price, entered the Huangqiu Mountains.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Next, he must wake up Varieva in advance, and now the situation in Shurima seems to be a bit wrong.
The giant gods who have been competing for believers in the past are now showing abnormal unity. This is not a normal situation.
In response, theoretically, the dark descendants should unite together - the conflict between the giants and the dark descendants has become the most fundamental contradiction in the Shurima continent after the collapse of the Shurima Empire.
.
Therefore, it is based on the above judgment that Xu Yuyan believes that Varieva must be awakened. She is a relatively sober and thoughtful one among the dark descendants. How to deal with Icathia and Ixtar in the future, these are all
She needs to make the decision!
As for Varus...
It's not that Xu Yuyan wants to give up on his comrades, but things must be prioritized. If Varus is crazy, he is crazy. He is immortal anyway.
Obviously, Xu Yuyan could not have imagined that Varus had been found and taken away by Kalya at this time.
With the retreat of Xu Yuyan, the entire Nasramei was finally completely controlled by Demacia.
In order to highlight the difference between the Demacia Empire and the evil Noxus Empire, after occupying Nashrame, Jarvan IV did not order a change of flag. Instead, he allowed Nashrame to remain independent and even to reorganize its own internal affairs.
To elect a harbor governor was as if the Demacians were raising an army to overthrow Black's evil rule.
However, if you look at it from another perspective, compared to the Noxians cooperating with the locals to expand their territories, Demacia may have had a greater impact on Nasramae - they took over the port of Nasrama.
The destroyed Solari Temple was rebuilt, and a huge monument was erected in the center of the city to commemorate the Great Reconciliation of the Century.
As a price, many ancient buildings that had been preserved by Nashrami and used for cosplaying the Shuriman Empire were demolished. Although Jarvan IV ostensibly said that the Nasrami decided the fate of Nasrami themselves, but in the
Before Nasramei selected a reliable scapegoat, he had already decided Nasramei's fate.
Not only that, outside the city of Nasramei, Jarvan IV also specially designated a military zone and once again stationed an army.
Nominally speaking, the responsibility of this army is to "hunt down sand bandits."
But in fact, can there be a sand bandit with a hammer north of Zurita?
There are indeed a lot of sand bandits in Shurima now, but most of them live in relatively remote places. Are there any bad-minded sand bandits who would go to Nashrame and plunder?
Nashram is a city built on commerce. If you dare to interfere with Nashram's business activities, Nashram will really send people to clear it up. Even though Nashram can't defeat Demacia, it can still clean up the sand thieves.
OK!
So, just look at things like stationing troops to clean up sand pirates.
It is no exaggeration to say that after the Noxians came to Naschram and occupied Naschram, they only used Naschram as a base to expand their territory and as a money bag. Although there were some differences in the original order of Naschram.
There have been changes, but generally the focus is still on cooperating with local people.
But after the arrival of the Demacians, although Nashrame is still an independent city-state, as expected, it will soon become Demacia's second commercial center in North Shurima after Uzeris.
With the help of Nasramei's transshipment, Demacia's bulk grain is likely to directly compete with the grain of Kumanggra and Kalduga.
From Jarvan IV's point of view, this show of muscle is perfect.
Facts have proved that in the face of elite Demacia warriors, even Nashrame, who dared to send troops brazenly in the past, is no match.
Moreover, with the emperor's arbitration, the Sun Sect and the Moon Sect also completed the Great Reconciliation of the Century. The elders of the Sun Sect and the Moon Sect agreed that Jarvan IV, who had climbed Mount Targon, was the one who "can represent
The one who shines brightly in the sun and moon”.
So, here comes the problem.
When will the sun and moon appear at the same time?
The answer given by the Sun Sect and the Moon Sect is "when the twilight is dispersing".
Although many people were curious as to why it was not the moment of dawn, Jarvan IV readily accepted the praise from the Sun Sect and the Moon Sect, and added the title "Emperor of the Demacia Empire" after his title
A "Lord of Twilight".
In return, Jarvan IV also allowed the Moon Sect and the Burning Sun Sect to enter Demacia to preach. This battle created a new group of military nobles, and Jarvan IV needed to introduce some religious power.
Balanced.
……………………
It took Jarvan IV almost a month to handle government affairs in Nasramae.
After finally establishing the new order in Nashrame, he finally took a large army and returned home by boat.
When the army landed at the port of the capital, the capital of Demacia once again seemed to turn into a sea of celebration. His Majesty the great emperor once again protected the glory of the empire and once again proved the glory and greatness of Demacia!
However, if Jarvan IV could leave the capital and go to other parts of Demacia, to the countryside, to the fields, to the borders, to the forests, then he would find that the whole country was just as happy as the one after the victory in the last battle of Tobitsia.
The difference was that this time when he returned from victory, even though the celebrations in the capital became grander, more Demacians were a little numb.
For their part, Demacia did have some victories.
But these victories mean nothing to them.
So far, the huge profits gained from Shurima trade have been almost completely seized by the nobles and royal families. Their grasp is so tight that almost none of it has flowed into the people.
In the past ten years, it seems that Demacia's national power has been growing day by day, but for the civilians of Demacia, all they can perceive is inflation and rising prices, the inability to join the army and the loss of promotion channels, and the land rent of the lords.
Crazy rise...
At the beginning, everyone would be happy and proud of the empire's victory.
But now...
More and more people have discovered that the glory of the empire is the glory of the nobility, and only the glory of the nobility.
In the past, commoners could risk their lives to make themselves or their children new nobles.
But now, as lords from various places have stopped conscription, and as prices continue to rise, civilians cannot join the army, nor can they provide their children with the conditions to join the army by saving money...
In this case, no matter who you are, you will feel dissatisfied.
In other words, Demacia itself is a major food producer, so everyone can at least have food to eat. Otherwise, if we continue to struggle like this, it may become more than just a matter of "dissatisfaction".
However, at this delicate moment, before all the celebrations in the capital were over, a brand new storm swept across Demacia.
Black, the former port governor of Nashrame, who took a boat to Kalduja to take refuge, soon showed his political skills after staying away from the battlefield. He successfully persuaded the port governor of Kalduja to officially start an alliance with Demacia.
This led to a commodity price war focusing on grain trade.
