I am the Summoner of Runeterra

Chapter 30 Mercenaries in the Desert

The land of Shurima presents a desolate yellow, and almost all places visible to the naked eye are deserts.Ezreal led Lin Wan, Lax and Annie to walk slowly on the soft sand. The four of them covered their mouths and noses with a gauze to block the sand and dust in the desert.

Perhaps the scenery on the road was almost the same, and the four of them felt a little bored after a while. Seeing the silence in the atmosphere, Ezreal said, "Do you know? There is a legend about the Ascended in Shurima. Just follow us to find related to the solar disk."

"Oh?" Lin Wan looked at Ezreal curiously.

"It is said that in ancient times, there was a legendary mortal emperor who ruled Shurima. Later, after establishing the huge Shurima Empire, he successfully ascended in a great ascension ceremony and became a god. The sun disc It is a tall tower condensed from the divine power of the sun god he inherited."

Lin Wan secretly thought about the background story of the League of Legends. It seems that the emperor of Shurima is only suitable for the golden crispy chicken, but isn’t it said in the background story that he failed to ascend and was robbed of his strength by Xerath?Could it be that the yellow chicken ascended in the real world, and then asked, "Ezreal, is the emperor you're talking about called Azir?"

"Hmm!" Ezreal gave Lin Wan a slightly surprised look. He didn't expect Lin Wan to know such an ancient thing.

"No! It is said that the real ascension was a wizard next to Azir. He stole the power of Azir's ascension and became a god himself. That wizard was called Xerath. Later, it was said that because of Xerath's power Wuji couldn't be killed, and finally another ascendant sacrificed his life and sealed him forever." Lux on the side interjected at the right time.

"Well, as far as I know, Azir did not ascend, and what Lux said should be more in line with the actual situation." Lin Wan suddenly nodded, and then looked at Lux in surprise, "This How do you know about such a thing, Lux?"

"Because there are actually nine ascensioners in the legend, except for the first and most powerful Queen Setaka in the legend, and the one who had just completed the ascension ceremony and was killed by the weapon master Jax on the battlefield. The deeds of the unknown Ascendant are unknown, the other seven Ascendants are recorded in our Demacia library, they are Aatrox, Raast, Verus, Nasus, Renekton, Xerath who stole Azir's ascension power, and the last one is Kyle from our Demacia camp. It is also because of Kyle that we in Demacia know about Ascendants There is a lot of news about it." Lacus said like a few treasures.

"There are so many ascenders?" Ezreal was quite surprised. Although there was a living Master Ryze in the library, most of his conversations with Ryze happened in the air, so Ryze was He didn't tell him much about these legendary things. Most of the news that Ezreal knew came from his expeditions, um...or hearsay.

It was the first time Lin Wan had heard such a story, and he was a little interested. He was surprised by the familiar names among the Ascended, and was about to ask Lacus about the Ascended again when he found that A few black spots appeared densely in the distance.

"It's mercenaries in the desert. Let's go around a little bit. Although they are mercenaries, they won't cause trouble for passers-by." Ezreal took out a single-lens telescope and looked at the distant place. Hei Dot said to everyone.

Several people were in a hurry and had no objection.

But sometimes if you don't look for trouble, trouble will naturally find you. The black spots in the distance seem to have spotted Lin Wan and the others, and they suddenly spread out and walked towards the four of them.After a while, the four of them were surrounded.

Ezreal signaled them not to panic, then stepped forward and shouted to the group of mercenaries, "Which of you is in charge?"

The crowd dispersed slightly, and a woman in a slightly revealing khaki gray dress stepped forward and said in a rather friendly tone, "Don't be nervous, everyone, we don't mean any harm."

Ezreal carefully looked at the woman in front of him. She may have been performing missions in the desert for many years. The woman's skin was a healthy wheat color, her round and straight thighs were exposed in the air, and there was only a piece of soil around her chest. Gray cloth towel, half a ball bulging out a wild amplitude.

"Hello, respected leader, my name is Ezreal, the four of us are just an ordinary expedition team, I don't know what is the purpose of your mercenaries stopping us?" Ezreal gave a gentlemanly salute to The woman in front of him asked, and I have to say that this handsome and sincere face gave Ezreal a lot of points.

"Are you the explorer Ezreal? That's great. My name is Sivir. That's right, we found an ancient ruin, but our team is still short of manpower, so we came here specially. Discuss with you if you are willing to join our adventure? After the matter is completed, I will share it with you according to the rules." The woman who called herself Sivir looked at Ezreal expectantly.

Normally, Ezreal wouldn't let it go if he heard the news about the adventure. However, the main purpose of everyone at the moment was to retrieve the Enlightenment Rune, so they couldn't make their own decisions, so they had to look at Lin Wan.

Sivir seemed to see that Ezreal was not the leader of these people, but looked at Lin Wan following Ezreal's gaze.

"That's right, we also have a mission this time, so I may be a little sorry for your request, leader, and we may not be able to accompany you there." Lin Wan rubbed her nose and stood up bravely. After reporting her name, Lin Wan was a little puzzled. She was called the mother of wheels, why didn't she wear her iconic cross wheel weapon...

"Okay, that's our abruptness..." Sivir said with a little regret, and then shouted to everyone behind him, "Warriors! Do you have the confidence to take out the treasure under the sun disc!"

"Yes!" Everyone shouted in unison.

Originally, Sivir was only tentatively asking Lin Wan and the others. Since Lin Wan was unwilling, they did not force them. After all, Xivir and the others had already decided to go, so why add more disputes.

"What did you say?" Lin Wan suddenly stopped Sivir, "Are you going to the Sun Disk?"

"Huh? Why is your mission also to go to the solar disk?" Sivir asked suspiciously.

"Well, since we are on the way, let's go together." Lin Wan said at the right time.

"It's okay to be together, but I don't know what you are looking for?" Sivir asked vigilantly.

"Don't worry, we're just going to retrieve something that a friend put there, and we're not interested in your treasure." Lin Wan saw the guard in Sivir's tone and explained.

"That's fine. Since that's the case, let's set off together. You will also get the share that I promised you after finding the treasure. Then wish us a happy cooperation!" Sivir stretched out his hand.

Lin Wan happily held Sivir's hand, which was soft and delicate.

After joining Sivir's mercenary team, Sivir told Ezreal some interesting things about the adventure along the way, but the journey was not as boring as before.

During the conversation, I learned that Sivir used to be from Noxus, and followed his parents as a merchant between Noxus and Shurima, but when he encountered a robber, both his parents died, leaving only the young Sivir In order to survive, Sivir had to do some petty theft. However, when he was following a tomb robber, after the tomb robber ransacked the tomb and left, Sivir discovered that there were several secret messages hidden under the tomb. Dao, and then after returning to Noxus, gathered some homeless people like her, took them down to the ancient tomb, and formed the original mercenary team, and this time they came out because of the influence of Noxus Commissioned by the daughter of a high-ranking military officer to find treasure under the Sun Disk.

But Lin Wan was wondering why he didn't see Sivir's wheel, and after learning that Sivir was using a three-inch long dagger, he didn't rashly reveal his identity as a summoner.

After walking in the desert for about three or four days, everyone arrived at the destination of the trip—the sun disc.

In the bare desert, on a [-]-meter-high pedestal that seemed to be piled up of sand bricks, a huge sand ring stood on the pedestal. It was a bit like the globe that Lin Wan had seen before, except that the ball in the middle was missing. up.

"Is this the sun disc? Why is it just an empty rut? Where is the sun?" Lin Wan looked at the sun disc curiously.

"In the legend of Shurima, there was originally a sun-like ball of light in the center of the sun disc, but Azir, who inherited the power of the sun god, was snatched by Xerath when he ascended. After the energy dies, the solar disk no longer illuminates the land of Shurima. It is said that in that battle, Renekton, the ascendant, gave his life to seal the Xerath that snatched away the power of the sun god's ascension. And this sun The disc is the burial place of the legendary desert emperor Azir. In other words, this is the tomb of the legendary desert emperor. What we are looking for is the burial object of this legendary emperor " Sivir stepped forward and walked to Lin Wan's side and said.

Then he turned around and shouted to the only carriage in the line, "Miss Cassiopeia, we're here!"

I saw a woman in military uniform slowly walking down from the carriage, with a heroic look on her face, she really deserved to be the daughter raised in an officer's family, Lin Wan always felt that Cassiopeia's name was somewhat familiar , but after thinking about the background of the entire League of Legends, there seems to be no humanoid hero like this, so I attribute it to the similarity in the name of the heroine of which American blockbuster I have seen on weekdays...

"Well, then let's go in." The woman who came out nodded slightly at Xiweier, and walked forward without looking at Lin Wan who was aside...
