Battle of the Two Cities: Begins with the Mage

Chapter 195: The Prince's Apprenticeship, Announcement to Cui Fari of the Crown Guard

In the floating castle of the Immortal Fortress.

Syndra stood beautifully in front of the window, her chin was slightly raised to look at the sky, revealing her white and slender neck, and her eyes flashed with inexplicable light:

"Brightness of the stars..."

She whispered silently, and then snorted softly:

"An eyesore!"

She looked down from the sky to see a team marching away from the Immortal Citadel.

The leader of this team is Seraphine, who is full of energy all the time.

She stabilized the stage, turned around to straighten the children in the back, and bowed slightly to Xin Zhao who was escorting them:

"General Xin Zhao, I'm sorry to trouble you this time."

"It's my duty to escort you to the great capital of Demacia!" Xin Zhao's tone carried the coldness typical of a soldier.

This time, instead of riding the Griffin, he rode the Black Tiger, the mount of the Trifali Chapter.

Most of the soldiers in the Trifali Chapter are following Darius to fight in the Freljord, and only nearly a thousand people perform the daily escort work of the Immortal Fortress under his leadership.

Seraphine looked at him, her big sapphire eyes blinking forcefully, as if expressing her trust in Xin Zhao.

After arranging the team, Seraphine turned around, her long pink hair flung a beautiful arc behind her head, and she restrained herself from the urge to look back at the gate of the Empire again.

He just squeezed slightly harder, holding the "Meredith's Soul Stealing Scroll" in his hand, closed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath and said:

"Set off!"

The convoy started, and the carriages drove forward one by one. The students of the Magic Department of the Zhanzheng Academy sat in the cars. They were escorted by the Trifali warband and moved towards Demacia.

Seraphine did not get into the carriage, but held the Soul Stealing Scroll alone and flew low on her own cool little stage.

Judging from the team's trajectory, she was no slower than those carriages.

"Phew... Calm down, I want to calm down." Her eyes wandered around, her breathing quickened slightly, and it was easy to tell from the tone of her broken thoughts that she was encouraging herself.

Having set off for a certain distance, Seraphine was still unable to suppress the restlessness, unease, and a little bit of anticipation in her heart.

This is the first time she has led a team out of the country.

This time, Demacia communicates with her. She is not sure if she can do it smoothly...will it mess up, but she will try her best to do it well.

The empire is her strong backing, which makes her feel extremely at ease.

At least in the event of an emergency, these lovely students of hers would not be in any danger.

Thinking of this, Seraphine subconsciously glanced at her right hand.

On the originally empty wrist, there is now a black bracelet. This was given to her by Teacher Syndra before her departure. It is said that as long as magic is injected into it, Ms. Syndra will come as soon as possible no matter where she is.

The same is true of the "Meredith's Soul Stealing Scroll" that she was holding in her arms, which was given by Mr. Ryan. Sacrificing part of the soul can build a space rune magic circle, and her teacher can arrive in an instant.

Thinking of these two magic props, Seraphine's brows and eyes widened, and she couldn't help but regain her confidence.

With two teachers as backing, she doesn't seem to have anything to fear!

Seraphine nodded to herself, showed a bright smile at the students in the carriage beside her, pressed her chin again and fell into contemplation.

So now, it's time to use the time on the road to think about who you will meet in Demacia and what to say... You can't always sing...

Seraphine frowned sadly.

In her tumultuous thoughts, the motorcade drifted away, toward the border of Demacia and Noxus.

......

Demacia, Castle of Dawn.

Jia Wen, dressed in a golden robe, walked in from outside the main hall and saw Eleanor standing beside the throne head on, frowning slightly.

The last time he came here, Uncle Nat was in the same position.

But now, the uncle has been sleeping forever.

Thinking of Nat's death, his heart was also quite uncomfortable.

He did not speak highly of the older generation, but the uncle who watched him grow up betrayed the country, which made him feel disgusted by his actions.

'Whatever is lost, it is taken back with strength and glory. ’

'Never be a coward. ’

He still remembered that this was what Uncle Nat often said to him.

But unfortunately, in the end, Uncle Huang broke his promise.

Many chaotic thoughts flashed in Jarvan's mind. Since he has new power, he can always feel that his mind is much more flexible.

Walking to the front of the hall, he paused, he bowed slightly, and bowed to the royal father on the throne:

"Father, what are you looking for from me?"

"The Bouviers clearly rejected us, on the grounds that their daughter is not worthy of you."

Eleanor was the first to say, with anger on her face, quite unhappy:

"You have already given them face by going to their house in person. If it weren't for this special period, she wouldn't be worthy of you at all."

"Okay, Eleanor. Since Bouvier is unwilling, we shouldn't force it." The king raised his right hand slightly to stop Eleanor's complaints.

The old king looked at Jarvan with regret and guilt in his expression.

Eleanor's words made Jarvan instantly understand the intention of letting him come today.

Thinking, he shook his head and said indifferently:

"Father, I don't care about this. Strength is the foundation. Ryan Meredith is in Noxus, and no one can go against the will of President Trefary. What he relies on is absolute strength."

As soon as these words came out, the hall instantly fell into silence.

Jarvan III and Eleanor looked at Jarvan in surprise. If they had not been together for too long and understood each other's little habits, they would have believed the rumor that the prince had been replaced.

Such words were impossible to say from Jarvan's mouth before.

Eleanor's face was full of surprise, and she raised her voice:

"Jarvin, why do you think so? We are Demacia!"

Although the king did not speak, his deeply frowned brows also expressed the same meaning as Eleanor.

The Jarvan who unites the people, helps each other, and believes in the group is the Jarman they are most familiar with.

"We are Demacia, but the countless wars with Noxus still can't prove anything?" Jarvan stood straight, his tone full of firmness to his own thoughts.

"Okay." The king stopped Eleanor who wanted to continue speaking. He took a sigh of relief, changed his expression, and said slowly with encouragement in his voice:

"Jarvin, if you have any ideas, you can mention that Demacia is in a time of change."

Hearing his father's words, Jia Wen's eyes flickered with emotion.

He took a deep breath and replied with a solemn and serious expression:

"Father, I have experienced the last battle of gods, and I know very well the mighty power possessed by those gods. In their eyes, we are too weak to be attacked."

Speaking of what happened last time, Jarvan seemed to recall the battle between Kyle and Ryan, with a little panic in his expression unconsciously.

In the past, he never felt that there would be a day when the gods and their lives would be intertwined.

In other words, the gods are just illusory beliefs. With the concerted efforts of Demacia, even the gods shun the edge.

But starting with the battle of gods, and then seeing and hearing in Noxus, he completely changed this view.

The kind of mighty power that can lift a large area of ​​land into the sky with a single wave, and the magic that can make the earth crack with a flick of the fingertips really makes people feel hopeless.

No matter how many they are and how brave they are, they will not have the slightest chance of winning in the face of such an enemy. In the eyes of the enemy, they are lambs to be slaughtered.

The old king could understand the emotions in Jarvan's eyes, he hesitated for a moment, stood up from the throne, and walked to Jarvan's side step by step.

With a withered hand on Jarvan's shoulder, the old king's voice contained a hint of consolation:

"Son, I also heard about that battle. Do you know that our ancestors once faced such a powerful enemy. Under such difficult conditions, they founded Demacia, which has lasted to this day. "

"No, Father. Our ancestors were losers, weren't they..." Jarvan raised his head and retorted fiercely.

He looked into the eyes of the old king, with an unprecedented determination in his eyes.

The ancestors of Demacia, to put it better, built a powerful city-state in the wilderness.

To put it harshly, they were just frustrated people who had witnessed the power of magic. He fled in a group because he was afraid of magic, and finally chose a place where magic is difficult to enter, and established a refuge.

In the past, Jia Wen was also proud and proud of his ancestors.

But more insight made him realize his own shortcomings and the path he needs to take in the future.

"We're not in a position to judge ancestors, Jarvan."

The old king shook his head slightly. Even though Jarvan said such a rebellious remark, he didn't scolded Jarvan harshly, he just said calmly:

"Humans can be divided into many types. Some people are born as farmers, and they rejoice because of the harvest; some people are born as merchants, and they rejoice because they get huge rewards. Some people are born into nobles, and they will serve the country. And feel honored..."

"Javin, you're different from them..."

The king's voice gradually became serious and powerful:

"Javin, you were born to be the next heir to Demacia, the hope of our nation. Maybe we're not as strong as Noxus, maybe we don't have the freedom of Ionia. But here, our ancestors will always fight. land."

"Following the traditions they left behind, we have survived countless catastrophes and extended for hundreds of years. We are one with the people, and whenever we face difficulties, we will face everything with one heart."

"The gods may have unimaginable power, but at the same time, they also have their own enemies. Unite all who can be united, this is what we should do."

When Jia Wen heard these words, his emotions were complicated.

Father, it is still the same as before.

Maybe... if it was a year ago, he would still agree with such thoughts.

But, he just feels that the father is old now...

On the surface, Jarvan did not reveal anything, but nodded silently:

"Father, I understand what you are saying. But what should we do in the face of the current situation. Noxus gives us little time."

"The Ionia side has sent us a letter, and the people of the Shadowstream sect are ready to join us in the defense of Noxus. Also, they are not without

The power of the gods, the Apocalypse who is rumored to have inherited power for thousands of years, has promised our alliance. ' Jarvan III reassured.

Immediately afterwards, the king went on to add:

"Ryan Meredith once failed in Ionia. At that time, although he and Swain escaped, all the troops they led died on the continent of Ionia. Not only in this way..."

"Our messengers have gone to the Freljord. They are now fighting each other, but they will not ignore the threats at hand. Except for the Winter's Claw tribe, which has a deadly revenge with us, the rest of the tribes have promised us. Once Noxus will send troops to us, and they won't sit idly by."

"Father, you don't understand..."

Jia Wen couldn't help shaking his head:

"If Noxus is going to attack us, all we need is Ryan Meredith, we don't have that much time to react."

He is not as ignorant of magic as he used to be. Because of his understanding, he knows how terrifying the powerhouses can be.

The king was not troubled, but smiled and said:

"Son, we are not without our own background. In addition to what I want to tell you today, I also introduced a new teacher to you."

"teacher?"

Jarvan frowned in displeasure. He didn't need any spearmanship teachers or tutors right now.

The king nodded, gave Eleanor a look, and watched her bow and leave, then said with a serious face:

"There are some things I should tell you. In fact, the Light Shield family has always maintained a deal with the mage."

"Mage? Trading?"

Jia Wen looked strange, looking at his father emperor with incredible eyes.

It was just a few words, and he felt that he might have to overthrow all his impressions of his father.

In the past, his father was definitely a model of abiding by the rules of Demacia in his eyes, and he loved his people like a son and treated them with his own eyes.

All good qualities can be used to call his father. Although, sometimes he feels that his father is very stubborn and refuses to let go of some old habits.

But under the leadership of his father, Demacia is stronger than ever, which is an undeniable fact.

And now, a Demacian king who used to abide by the rules actually told himself that they had always had a relationship with mages...

The king looked at Jarvan's expression and smiled indifferently:

"Sometimes I have to step back for Demacia. I was in the same situation as you are now."

"He... is also a mage like a god?" Jarvan asked with a frown.

"Perhaps he is stronger than that. Even in the Forbidden Forest, he can use magic at will. Perhaps, he is stronger than the God of Flying Wings," the king said with emotion.

"Who is he?" Jarvan demanded.

Demacia's greatest power is all about magic, how ironic...

If it was before, maybe he would have disdain on his face.

But now, he is happy that his father can have such a long-term plan.

"Let him tell you himself."

The king said, walked back to the throne, took out a scroll hidden in the dark compartment, and tore it open.

hum! ! !

At the moment when the scroll was torn apart, the dark blue magic light filled the hall.

Seeing the rune formation emerging in the air, Jarvan's shoulders trembled slightly, and there was a hint of fear on his face.

This magic circle... is very similar to the magic that Ryan used when he fought with Kayle.

A figure slowly emerged in it, and Jia Wen already believed that it had the strength to surpass the flying wing protection god.

The moment the other party appeared, he could feel that the little magic in his body was almost completely suppressed.

You know, even when Kayle was at war with Noxus, their mages were still casting spells normally in the city.

If it can be stronger than Kyle, even if it is not as good as the two god-like mages at that time, it will be enough to resist the crisis.

Jia Wen thought so, and there was a hint of joy on his face.

Gradually, the blue light of the rune slowly dissipated, and a purple-skinned mage came out of the rune magic circle.

Carrying a huge scroll on his back, he looked around, his eyes stayed on Jarvan for a few seconds, and he looked at Jarvan III and said:

"The little baby of the Guangdun family, he is the person you expect me to teach?"

"Archmage, he is my prince, Jia Wen." Jia Wen III bowed slightly, keeping his posture extremely low.

The purple-skinned mage smiled slightly and looked at Jarvan:

"Your prince and you think very differently. My name is Ryze, and you can call me an archmage like your father."

"Archmage, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

Jia Wenqiang suppressed the excitement in his heart, and hurriedly bowed and saluted.

He originally planned to have a showdown with his father today, and then lead the army to the Freljord or Shurima to train in order to train his strength to save Demacia.

But unexpectedly, the father emperor gave him a better choice.

If you can worship this mage who is stronger than Ryan, perhaps, Demacia can continue to continue.

And he will always protect it.

"Your thoughts and eyes are good. I have seen many apprentices who have the same firm beliefs as you, but they were all lost in magic in the end."

Ryze squinted his eyes slightly, and his eyes were instantly dyed blue.

Qi became serious and said:

"Your father wants me to take you as an apprentice, but you must first understand that the path of magic is full of chance. How much you can understand depends on your own talent, and at the same time, you must also resist the temptation that comes from magic. "

"Magic temptation? I hope the Archmage will explain in detail." Jia Wen asked respectfully.

What the other party said was almost the same as what he had learned recently.

On the other hand, Noxus seems to have developed a shortcut to quickly become a mage.

But even if that were true, he didn't think it was his turn to learn.

Unless... he joins the Black Rose like his uncle, or surrenders with a light shield or Demacia.

None of these things would happen to him anyway.

After hearing Jarvan's doubts, Ryze nodded slightly and explained in detail:

"The pursuit of magic is never-ending. I have seen too many talented magic chasers, but none of them have a good end. Because there are too many shortcuts to obtain magic power. Even me, because of some things, became successful. It's what you see."

"You have a family that is far superior to other magic apprentices, so I have only one piece of advice for you...you must pursue power with moderation."

"Once I find out that you are using some kind of taboo to gain power, I will kill you!"

When he said the last sentence, Ryze's words were already filled with Sen Leng's killing intent.

Feeling the killing intent on the Archmage, Jia Wen's body couldn't help but tremble, like falling into an ice cellar.

He nodded solemnly, and no longer hesitated, knelt on his knees and said loudly:

"Jervin Light Shield, I beg the Archmage to accept me as an apprentice!"

For Ryze's words, he has no doubts about its authenticity.

But at the same time, he was a little more careful.

No magic chaser will give up the shortcut, as Ryze's words convey.

And... the shortcuts are probably far more extraordinary.

He believed that if he touched any taboo, Ryze would definitely kill him.

But if there is a chance to have extremely strong power, he will never let it go.

Ryze didn't know what Jarvan was thinking. Looking at the resolute and determined face of the other party, he couldn't help but nodded:

"From today, you are my apprentice. In the future, I will tell you how to control magic and set a growth plan for you."

He wasn't very concerned about Jarvan's future.

With the help of thousands of years of knowledge, teaching each other is a simple matter.

The last time Ryan was taught the world rune, gave him a sense of urgency.

Except for the one in Ryan's hand, there are runes that have not been recovered outside.

He has to be prepared to get them as soon as possible.

The time is too tight, and he has to resort to external forces.

And now the only power he can draw on is Demacia.

Next time, he won't let Ryan get it...

......

At the same time, on the streets of Xiongdu, Laxana's pace paused slightly.

She frowned slightly, glanced in the direction of Dawn Castle, and tightened the magic book in her hand:

"Teacher... Was there a huge magic entrenched there just now?"

"Someone opened the rune magic circle for teleportation in Castle of Dawn. This level of magic is rare in the world."

Hearing the teacher's reply soon, Laksana was slightly startled.

She remembered something that her aunt Tiana had mentioned, and the light shield had long been associated with the mage.

And the connection between them may be the powerful mage who just appeared.

"Teacher, do you know who that mage is?"

There is hope in Laxana's words, and the rare magic in the world also shows that the identity of the people is very high.

Maybe his teacher knew him.

"Guardian of the world's runes - Ryze!"

"Ryze... Guardian... such a domineering title."

Laxana muttered the other party's name with admiration in her eyes.

She has never heard of this name, but to be named a guardian and praised by her teacher so much, she must be an extremely powerful being.

When...she can also have the title of Guardian of Demacia, that's good...

Laxana shook her head slightly and walked towards her house.

Tomorrow is the day of the referendum. She has been walking around a lot recently and giving a lot of speeches.

After that, it will definitely be a happy ending.

It didn't take long for Laxana to meet Tiana with a serious face as soon as she got home.

"Aunt, what happened?"

Seeing Tiana's ugly expression, she squeezed the scroll in her hand, and Laxana was slightly curious.

Things have been going well recently, and she has rarely seen Tiana's face.

"Ugh..."

Tiana sighed in annoyance and handed the scroll in her hand to Laxana:

"This is a letter from Noxus to us."

"Give us?"

Laxanna looked even more puzzled, took the scroll handed over and opened it:

'Noxus Trefary Proclamation'

'

;To the Crownguard family: '

Thinking of this, Laxana was a little surprised, why the announcement issued by Trifali was sent to their family alone.

It was as if they had some connection with Noxus.

She pressed her doubts to the bottom of her heart and continued reading:

'The Empire will conduct a friendly exchange with Demacia. This exchange will be led by Seraphine, the apprentice of President Ryan Meredith and the instructor of the Magic Department of the War College, and all members of the Magic Department will participate, and will be escorted by Deputy General Xin Zhao of the Trifaris Chapter. '

This is a good thing...

Laxanna said silently in her heart, at least it was a magic student, not all of the troops of the Trifali Chapter.

In this way, at least Noxus and they are still dominated by peace.

Looking down, Laxana gradually became stunned:

'The Empire was personally shot by Council President Ryan Meredith and defeated a mage Ryze who was hiding in Demacia. He is a mage who can destroy Demacia with his magical powers, without causing unnecessary trouble to himself and the empire. ’

'Before the imperial exchange group arrives in Xiongdu, Ryze's investigation report must be provided to the empire. And after the arrival of the imperial exchange group, he was responsible for the reception. ’

'Vice President Trefary, handwritten by Jericho Swain. ’

At the end, Laxana completely understood why her aunt looked ugly.

This announcement does not look like a notification letter sent to the enemy country at all.

On the contrary, it is an order to the subordinate forces.

But Demacia isn't a Noxian subordinate, so...

Laxana raised her head, her face was a little stiff, she forced a forced smile from the corner of her mouth, and asked with uncertainty in her eyes:

"Aunt... our Crownguards have nothing to do with Noxus?"
