Although it was embarrassing to be discovered and dangerous to be surrounded by plants, until this moment, Tariq had never thought about the possibility of being caught.
Just kidding, I was once a star spirit!
However, it turns out that in front of this team of people, let alone a person who was once a protoss - even if the protoss really came, they would have to shed a layer of skin.
Because everyone in this team has a common title.
Ixtal, the Great Elementalist.
Here, Tarik has not found any angle or opportunity to escape, but over there, the entire jungle seems to have come alive and fell into an unsettling rage. At the same time, large-scale rain fell from the sky without warning.
The collision of different elements caused colorful arcs similar to the aurora to light up in the mid-air. The elemental tides carried hurricanes and heavy rains, completely covering a distance of several hundred yards around Tariq...
Under such a bad environment, even Tariq found it difficult to move.
What's worse is that Tarik seems to have been completely locked at this time. No matter how he moves, the strong winds and activated plants always envelope him. Even if he swings his war hammer, smashing the vines and trees in front of him.
, to carve out a path for oneself, but no matter where the road turns, there is still wind and rain at the end.
Outside of the wind and rain, after confirming that Tariq did not have the ability to leave, the team of Ixtar's great elementalists finally began to strengthen the spell itself - one of the great elements was outside of Tarik's sight.
The envoy placed a black stone in his hand and directly extracted the astonishing magic power from it.
And as the hands and arms of this great elementalist were dyed with a layer of black, and an almost stone-like hardening appeared on the surface, his expression became violent. The next moment, in the wind and rain, countless raindrops began to appear.
They gathered quietly and stabbed Tariq like a sharp dagger.
Before this, Tarik had never thought that the high-speed water flow could be so sharp. In just a moment, he was cut all over by the water flow. If he had not always maintained the good habit of wearing armor, this move would not have been possible.
It was enough to make him bloody and bloody.
Under the emergency situation, Taric had no choice but to use the power left by the protoss, and the light representing protection lit up on his body, temporarily sheltering him.
Outside the rain curtain, the Great Elementalists saw this scene clearly. This wonderful aura made them stop what they were doing, gave up on killing them on the spot, and started hoping to capture them alive.
In order to achieve this, another great elementalist in the team began to draw magic power frantically.
Naturally, Tariq had no idea about this.
As soon as he held up the protective light and began to actively search for enemies, the plants under his feet began to boil in a manner that had never been seen before - countless plants even gathered into a giant dragon and began to tear up the tower.
Rick's protective light.
At this time, Tarik was fully aware of the seriousness of the problem. He tried his best to find the enemy hidden outside the rain curtain. However, due to the entanglement of Mulong and Heavy Rain, he failed several times and returned without stopping.
In the process of wielding the war hammer to crush plants and open a path, his physical strength and energy were rapidly consumed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he soon reached the point of exhaustion.
Tarik is not good at controlling magic. He relies entirely on instinct to use the Guardian Light, which wastes a lot of magic power. However, in this situation, he has to hold up the Guardian Light to prevent himself from being torn apart by the heavy rain in an instant.
.
Although the great elementalists who maintain the rain curtain and the wooden dragon also consume a lot of energy, they have external energy supplements, so they can obviously hold on better than Tariq - so when the clouds disappear and the rain falls, they are exhausted.
The exhausted Tariq was finally caught completely and became a prisoner.
……………………
Tariq, who became a prisoner, was brought back to Ixtal in a daze. The several great elementalists who tried to capture him were all very interested in his guardian light - they planned to use it on Taric.
Conduct a series of magic experiments to study his wonderful guardian light,
After all, this is a wonderful magical phenomenon that no one in Ixtal has ever seen.
However, this matter, which seemed cruel to outsiders but was obviously beneficial to Ixtal, caused quite a stir in the internal political arena of Ixtal.
In terms of the Elemental Council, many people do not agree with this research method that stones from other mountains can be used to attack jade. They insist that Taric's power is evil and should not be studied. Only a few of the original axioms have been studied. You are so
If you have time, developing a few more primitive axioms is the right thing to do. Just know that when you report there, you need to conduct magic experiments and get a hammer!
Similarly, those who hold an opposing attitude include the conservative elders of Yuentar. They all say that you are too involved with the outside world. The Kingdom of Ixtal is gloriously isolated from the countries of Runeterra, and Karl
Duga, the transaction in Kumangla is enough for us to understand the changing times and vicissitudes outside. Your habit of bringing back everything you see for study is a disease!
However, the great elementalists who captured Tarik are naturally not ordinary people. After all, this title was handed down from Nezuk's head and represents the pinnacle of elemental magic. People who can become great elementalists,
In the political arena of Ixtal, they are also very talkative.
Therefore, they quickly sneered at the opposition, saying that this was their own trophy, and the report they submitted was just a report, a notification, not a solicitation of opinions - more importantly, the great elementalists have the freedom to experiment with magic.
No one has the right to stop it without violating the laws of Ixtal.
In the view of these great elementalists, the progress of magic requires communication. Although Ixtar wants to be independent from the world, it does not mean that they cannot initiate their own communication that has nothing to do with the outside world, such as catching a person with knowledge.
If people with special talents come to study this kind of thing, it will not affect Ixtar's external attitude.
And don’t forget, for Ixtar to be what it is today and for the Tower of Elements to be built, the key to the construction of the Tower of Elements is always the key stone from other mountains!
Although they only brought back a prisoner, Ixtal quickly started to quarrel with each other, and began to exchange opinions with each other in heated words.
Under this situation, considering that the captives were still locked up in the laboratory of the Great Elementalist, many Yuentar elders began to have thoughts. They took the initiative to find the Ixtal royal family, hoping that the royal family would come forward to initiate changes.
The current laws of Ixtar prohibit such dangerous communication activities.
At the same time, the Great Elementalists also found the royal family and requested that the Yuntar elders be urged to fulfill their normal work obligations and stop blocking their own experimental funds.
In this way, Tariq himself, as a prisoner, stirred up the political turmoil in Ixtar.
……………………
The attitude towards Tariq is the epitome of Ixtal's current internal political outlook.
In this era of turmoil in Rune Land, some Ixtal people believe that the key to Ixtal lies only in Ixtal. The more the era of change, the more Ixtal must stick to its true heart and reduce as much as possible.
By communicating with the outside world, only in this way can Ixtar maintain himself and avoid being affected by chaos.
In the same way, there are also Ixtal people who regard the disturbances in the outside world as opportunities and opportunities for Ixtal to go further.
After all, as early as the Shurima Empire, the Kingdom of Ixtal had obtained the status of an autonomous domain and became part of the empire. Even the Elemental Council and the Yuentar Elders came from the organization at that time.
For the ambitious Ixtal people, this "Claim of the Shurima Empire" can also be used!
In the eyes of these radicals, the situation Ixtar is facing now is completely different from the early Rune Wars a thousand years ago and the Darkin War two thousand years ago.
During the Darkin War, the Shurima Empire had just disintegrated, and those darkin who had no goals were just a bunch of lunatics. At that time, Nezuk was no longer around, and he jumped out and claimed to be Shurima orthodoxy. The Kingdom of Ixtal was very likely
To be attacked by a group is a way to death.
During the Rune Wars, although the Dark Ones were almost no longer active, and the Noxian Empire and the Kingdom of Kamavia were mainly controlled by mortals, they did hold an astonishingly powerful weapon in their hands.
The great killer weapon and the power of the world's runes can be known by looking at the ocean currents in different directions now and thousands of years ago.
At that time, the Kingdom of Ixtal had mastered many original axioms, and the overall level of magic had far exceeded that of the outside world. However, it still had no means of countermeasures in the face of the world's runes. In order to avoid being the first to stand out, it was necessary to continue to hide its existence.
Nothing wrong with it.
But it’s different now!
In this era, most of the world's runes have disappeared or been sealed. Ixtar is not ignorant of this power, and more importantly, the new empires are just a group of tigers and monkeys in the mountains.
It’s just a piece of stuff that calls you a king!
With two windows to the outside world, Kumangla and Kalduga, Ixtal now has a lot of control over the general trend of the world!
The Noxian Empire, which inherited the mantle of the Noxian Empire, had disintegrated not long ago, and what contributed to their disintegration was a new country called Demacia.
It's not that the Ixtal people looked down on the new country, but after getting to know Demacia, they sincerely thought this country was funny - they actually banned magic!
Is there anything funnier than this in Runeterra? A country actually completely bans magic!
The people of Ixtal cannot imagine what the Kingdom of Ixtal would look like without magic and without the use of the original axioms!
Although they have not had any specific contact with Demacia, this does not prevent Ixtar from being full of contempt for Demacia, which they have never met. In their view, Demacia, which forbids magic, can only use funny words to express its disdain.
describe.
Can the power of magic also be banned?!
Since Demacia is such a ridiculous forbidden demon kingdom, how weak is Noxus after being beaten to disintegration by Demacia?
Previously, because of the name Noxus and its inheritance relationship with the Noxian Empire, the Kingdom of Ixtal was like a tiger that saw a donkey for the first time. It was afraid of the name Noxus, and even
When Noxian explorers try to penetrate deep into the rainforest, they should take the initiative to shrink southward to avoid entering the sight of those madmen who will mess with the world's runes.
But it turns out that this is just a donkey, and it was even easily defeated by a country that banned magic!
It’s so funny. Does a country that bans magic have any potential for war?
This isn't the end yet.
Just last year, Kumangla and Kalduga suddenly increased the import of monoliths without any warning in order to expand the scale of agricultural production - and after Ixtal sent envoys to understand the situation, the news they received turned out to be
It was "Demacia conquered Nasramae and called itself an empire."
When does a backward place without magic have the right to call itself an empire?
Moreover, Shurima has now declined to such an extent that it cannot even contain the attack of a forbidden demon kingdom, and even Nasramei has fallen into the hands of its enemies?
Because the first-hand information received by Kumangla and Kalduga came from the former port governor of Nashrame, Black, who failed in the war but actively organized the government-in-exile afterwards, he did not tell the story in detail about the Sun Sect and the
Regarding the Lunar Sect, he focused his condemnation on the Demacians from beginning to end.
Black hopes that he can always uphold the Great Shurima strategy to obtain assistance from many parties.
As a result, this behavior directly led to the misjudgment of the Ixtal people. They did not know the personal fate of the Sun Sect and the Lunar Sect. They only knew that the Demacians adopted a siege strategy and incited Nasramei.
Internal rebellion.
From Ixtar's point of view, they seem to have defeated all the opponents who once feared them during their long period of isolation. To this day, Valoran only has one ridiculous country that bans magic, and a country in name only.
Noxus inherited the Noxian Empire, but was essentially divided.
On the continent of Shurima, the afterglow of the Shurima Empire seems to have completely dissipated. Even Nasramae has been occupied by the ridiculous Demacia. Although Icathia seems to have become a little lively in recent years, that barren land
The earth has no potential whatsoever.
As for the continent of Kamavia, it has fallen into chaos since the Rune War. Now no one force can be the talker, and they are all reduced to scum...
What’s even funnier is that in the nascent land where the Shurima Empire was once treated with caution, it was invaded by Noxus not long ago and even reached the capital!
Good guy, in the past few years, as various news about Runeterra spread to Kumanggra, and then became known to the Ixtal people, they were surprised to find that during the long period of self-isolation, it was once just the Shuriman Empire.
The corner of the Kingdom of Ixtal, in the current Runeterra, actually has the meaning of drawing a sword and looking around to become invincible.
Under such circumstances, will the conservative strategy of the past have to be slightly changed?
