"I hope the capital will hear the good news of your victory." Quinn led his team to bid farewell to Galen.
After a good day's rest, Chai Anping and Partridge's faces improved a lot. Of course, their cheeks that were red from the cold were still the same.
Although there was no harvest, the three Pickles who still put in a lot of hard work were full of joy in completing the task.
Military life is full of inconveniences. At this time, several people are covered in a strong smell of sweat. There is no such exquisite life experience as bathing in this snowy river. Chai Anping has long wanted to go back to his apartment and take a good bath.
Galen nodded with a smile, took out the secret letter from the box and handed it to Quinn.
Their fearless pioneers will also set off today and advance towards the snow-capped mountains.
Scouts were sent out early in the morning to ensure the safety and concealment of various marches.
The six people obtained several horses from the Fearless Pioneer Battalion that were originally used to transport supplies, and began their return journey with the intelligence.
Riding horses took them a long way around, but overall the speed was about the same. They arrived at the foothills of Irwindale in the evening, and the temperature rose sharply.
Moreover, after returning to the territory of Demacia, the tense atmosphere in their team has also been reduced a lot.
With the help of Valor's eagle eyes, everyone came to camp near a river.
The clear river water with some broken ice made several delicate boys who had never received military training blush. If they hadn't been worried about the fact that there was Quinn in the team, they might have rushed in naked.
Quinn glanced at everyone, then changed the water in the iron pot while muttering: "As if no one has seen it before."

…
In the dim dungeon, Silas used the faint light to greedily read Durang's Forbidden Stone manuscript. This master single-handedly designed and created the Forbidden Stone Colossus Galio!
"I seem to understand a little bit."
He murmured to himself: "It's not a ban, it's an absorption."
Silas himself does not have extraordinary magical abilities. Apart from being able to distinguish mages in the crowd with the naked eye, his talent is to take away the ability of mages through contact!
He is a perfect match for the properties of the Forbidden Demon Stone!
As long as we find a way for him... he will transform directly!
"The magic power is stored in the forbidden magic stone. All I need to do is see it and discover it! Then I can take it and use it for my own use..."
"That's right!"
"That's right!"
He suddenly let out a low, beast-like laugh. After seeing through the essence of the Forbidden Demon Stone, he burned with unprecedented ambition.
"Squeak——"
The dungeon door suddenly opened, and his laughter stopped abruptly. There was no need for his joy to be beaten in vain.
Suddenly, a flash of white light suddenly appeared in front of him.
"It's you."
He stood up in surprise. After learning that he was going to be assassinated, he never thought that this woman would appear in front of him again.
"Can you really tell who I am?"
Lux stood in front of the prison timidly. The light that appeared in front of Silas made his eyes wet. His throat trembled, and then he lay down on the ground desolately: "After squatting in the dark for so many years, a bunch of light suddenly walked in.
The only light I have seen in my life, it is difficult for me to pretend not to see it."
Lux could hear the pain in his words, and her breathing began to become a little rapid and panicked.
Today, she secretly entered the Demon Searcher Prison using the identity of Miss Crown Guard without telling Rodney. The purpose was to meet this criminal who could see through her identity at a glance.
"Your name is Silas? They say you are a murderer..."
"Ha! Is this the crime they put on me?" Silas laughed bitterly: "I can't open my mouth anyway. Isn't it the usual method of your aristocratic lord to eliminate people who can make a sound? What do you think?
You know nothing about the truth, little girl, even the light on your body is becoming hypocritical and stinking!"
"Listen, my only crime here is that I'm a mage!"
Perhaps because he was about to be freed, or perhaps because the light in Lux was too pure, he was very talkative: "Besides...if I am a murderer, what about you?"
"I……!"
Lux's face turned pale.
"Your family has decided to kill me, right? Quietly... let my voice disappear completely." Silas admired Lux's embarrassed expression and laughed: "To preserve your identity,
And the dignity and nobility of your family."
"Have you never killed anyone? You are not innocent!" Lux suddenly clenched her fists and said.
"Murder?" Silas's eyes were lost in the past: "It was an accident. If you are willing to be merciful and listen to the excuse of a murderer, I can tell you."
Silas of Biangou Town.
The most dangerous magician in Demacia.
After Lacus agreed, a new version of the story unfolded in front of Lacus (details).
The four members of the mage family she had saved gave her the urge to come here again. Pretending to be deaf to this incident made the light in her body extremely uneasy - it turned out that this man named Silas had indeed suffered the consequences of the kingdom.
of unjust injustice.
"Gracie, what should I do..."
She couldn't help but watch Silas being killed because of her, but she didn't want to expose her identity and bring shame to the Crown Guard.
"So, are you just here to listen to my story? This beautiful lady." Silas teased: "Or are you here to scold me so that you can stand on the moral high ground so that your conscience can be settled?
If that’s the case, you might as well be more grateful for the privilege that saved you!”
"...No, Mr. Silas." Lux said sadly: "I just don't want you to die because of me."
"So?" Silas taunted, "You're going to rescue me? Rescue a murderer?"
"Stop it, it's too naive." Silas put away his coveting of this light: "You can't save anything, you can only hide behind your privilege, watch your real compatriots suffer, hear
Have you? Have you seen it? This entire prison is filled with the sinful curses of the perpetrators and the innocent blood of the mage."
Lux's eyes were dark, and she knew that Silas was right, just like the innocent family she saved.
Suddenly she thought of the medicine Chai Anping was developing!
"Someone is researching ways to eliminate magic. In the future... they will definitely be able to leave here in a normal way." She immediately said firmly: "Including you, as long as you promise to keep the secret, I will definitely stop the killing arranged by Rodney.
!”
"Eliminate the magic..."
Already having a way out of trouble, Silas's expression suddenly turned cold as his mentality changed - he really never thought that such a thing could exist!
"hehe……"
The strong murderous intention almost made him unable to restrain himself.
"Magic-forbidden potion"? This kind of thing is absolutely not allowed to appear in the territory of his future ideas!
After a long time, he suppressed all emotions and showed a look of tears of gratitude: "Really? Miss? Do we really have a chance to leave here?"
"……real!"
"Which great and compassionate alchemist master is willing to develop potions for us?" he said gratefully.
"Uh...he's not quite a master yet." Lux couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when she heard his words. Her face turned rosy again and she lowered her head: "But his research has made considerable progress, and he is...a trustworthy person.
, he is also a person who...doesn’t hate mages.”
"Oh - can you please tell me his name? I agree to your conditions!" Silas pleaded: "But please tell me his name. I want to have a refuge in this dark dungeon."
"real?!"
"Yes." Silas lowered his head and grinned: "If you can become an ordinary person, then who would refuse?"
"His surname is Shelley, just remember this."
"...Okay, thank you." Silas chewed the word, his eyes cold: "Thank you so much for your generosity! May the gods protect you!"
