LOL: Let me touch your steel

Page 221

Sivir looked at the majestic city in front of her with some surprise. Under the sunlight, the already thick city walls looked even more spectacular. The thick bricks and stones sparkled in the sun, exuding a calm and majestic atmosphere.

The capital of Demacia, the center of the entire Demacia, is also the location of the Forbidden Magic Stone Forest.

Zhang Xu looked thoughtfully at the guards patrolling the city wall and the soldiers searching the city gates, and couldn’t help but smacking his lips:

“Demacia is really strict… It’s not so obvious in other cities, but the Demacia capital is obviously different.”

“What are they looking for? Can we get in? Or… do we have to break in?”

Syndra looked at the busy figures not far away with some curiosity. This place was obviously different from other places – at least she had never seen such a scene in Ionia, Noxus and Shurima.

“Investigating the mage, well… that means investigating us.”

Zhang Xu couldn’t help but smile: “Demacia’s methods and standards for searching mages are very strict, but even so, there are still many dark magicians who sneak into Demacia’s capital and attack this forbidden magic city.”

“It seems like these dark mages are deliberately trying to fight against the magic-forbidden Demacia. Of course…it could also be for revenge. Demacia’s magic-hunting operations have captured and killed many mages.”

“However, the more these dark mages cause trouble, the more intense Demacia’s magic search becomes. The more intense the magic search becomes, the more excited these guys become. It’s now a vicious cycle.”

Zhang Xu narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly noticed a figure, a guy he had met once before.

The god of emptiness!

No, it’s Wayne.

She was still wearing the uniform that represented her identity as a Sentinel of Light. In one hand she held the weapon given to her by the Sentinel of Light, and in the other she held a round object – even though it was wrapped in a layer of black cloth, it was still not difficult to see that it was a human head.

Zhang Xu’s eyes lit up and he snapped his fingers:

“Hey, isn’t there someone helping us get into the city?”

Zhang Xu didn’t want to enter the city in a more ostentatious way, at least he didn’t want to attract other people’s attention now.

If he were noticed by others, he wouldn’t be able to easily approach the Forbidden Magic Stone Forest.

That’s right.

Zhang Xu just wanted to go to the Forbidden Magic Stone Forest to look for the runes buried there by an old bald guy.

Of course, Zhang Xu didn’t intend to be an enemy of Ryze. He just simply wanted to see why this rune that could destroy the world would be restricted by a small magic-forbidden stone forest.

If the Forbidden Stone Forest really restricts the runes well, then… Ryze’s strength will be too terrifying.

He may have underestimated Ryze before – a guy who can cast magic and teleport near the Forbidden Magic Stone, it’s scary to think about it, right?

“Let’s go.”

“I remember her. Wasn’t she one of those people who played supporting roles on the Shadow Isles?”

Sarah blinked and nodded in sudden realization: “I remember her, the red glasses… are quite recognizable.”

“Yep.”

Zhang Xu strode over with a group of people behind him and stopped Wei En before she approached the city gate.

Vayne didn’t notice anyone approaching beforehand. She had just been humming a little tune and enjoying the fruits of today’s hunting – she had just killed a hateful dark magician and cut off his head with her own hands.

Until a figure suddenly appeared in front of her.

Wayne lowered her head slightly and looked at the guy who blocked her way through the cover of her red glasses.

Just as her red glasses are highly recognizable, Zhang Xu’s appearance is also very recognizable.

Vayne recognized the guy in front of her at a glance, the guy who left a deep impression on her on the Shadow Isles!

As soon as she saw this face, Wayne could think of the horrific scene of devastation that day.

The impatience on his face disappeared the moment he recognized Zhang Xu, and was replaced by a look of fear.

Wayne looked around in panic, then lowered his voice and asked, “Why…why are you here?”

“What? Can’t I come here?”

Zhang Xu asked back with some amusement: “Am I scary? There’s no need to be so scared of me, right?”

Hearing this, Wayne cursed in her heart.

Aren’t you scary?

If you are not scary, who will be scary?

And there’s no need to be so afraid of you…

If I could destroy the world like you, you would be afraid when you see me!

Weien took a deep breath and tried her best to force a smile on her face:

“Of course you can come here… But, there shouldn’t be anything in Demacia that’s worth your attention, right?”

“Yes, and quite a few.”

Zhang Xu nodded and said with a smile: “You can think of me as someone who is here for fun. Now, your task is to bring us into the city. This shouldn’t be difficult for you, right?”

Zhang Xu suddenly thought it was fun to tease Wayne in this way.

Of course, he had no interest in Wayne at all.

He would never look for Vayne. Just from the background story he knew, he had already sentenced Vayne to death in his heart.

I can’t say I hate him, but I definitely don’t have any good feelings towards him anymore.

“I see.”

Weien looked at Zhang Xu with a complicated expression, then looked at Kaisa and others behind Zhang Xu, gritted her teeth and agreed.

As a former noble of the capital of Demacia, as a renowned demon hunter, and as the person in this country who hates dark magicians the most, Vayne does have the ability and capital to bring all of them in.

And this is also the purpose of Zhang Xu’s approach to Wei En.

You can go into the city and play with Vayne at the same time, why not?

Chapter 345: Try not to spend money if you can get it for free

Vayne walked to the city gate with a gloomy face. She had just killed a witch who “ate” her husband. To be more precise, it was a shapeshifter, which was very common in the woods outside East Demacia.

She was in a good mood until she met Zhang Xu.

Wayne cursed inwardly, then walked expressionlessly to the soldier in charge of checking the city gate. Without her even having to speak, the soldier stood at attention and saluted Wayne.

They usually pay high respect to this very famous demon hunter in the empire, not to mention that Vayne once saved their leader’s life from a monster.

“It looks like today is another fruitful day…”

A soldier nearby wanted to exchange a few words with Wayne, but when he saw Wayne’s cold face halfway through his words, he subconsciously swallowed his words.

Wayne shook the cloth bag in her hand, and inside was the head of the shapeshifter she hunted today.

“I found this guy in the forest of East Demacia… and the bodies of several victims. Most of them are incomplete and it is difficult to identify their appearance and identities. But I still need to tell you about this matter. Try to contact the families of these people.”

Vayne paused for a moment, then continued in a slow voice: “These people are my friends. They came with me to visit the Demacia capital.”

So his face looked grim because he saw the victims?

He is indeed a well-known demon hunter who hates evil!

The soldier who was standing in front of Wayne showed admiration on his face, but soon, he looked embarrassed:

“It’s… as a rule, your friends should also be checked.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the soldier next to him rushed out, grabbed the soldier from before and pulled him back, while putting on a smooth smile on his face, and repeatedly said:

“Since he is your friend, there is no need to be so cumbersome. Just go in.”

Hearing this, Wayne felt relieved and nodded with a slightly relaxed expression.

It cannot be said that the soldier neglected his duty and made decisions on his own. After all, Vayne is a well-known demon hunter in the entire Demacia. When it comes to hatred of mages, Vayne is second to none.

Everyone knows that even if there are nobles or even royal family members in Demacia who are shielding mages, Vayne will not shield mages.

In this case, checking Vayne’s friends would be a waste of time.

It not only saves time, but also allows one to establish a good relationship with a demon hunter like Vayne. It is a sure win no matter how you look at it – the soldier had a beautiful idea, but unfortunately…none of it was right.

……

Looking at Wei En walking away quickly, Zhang Xu raised his eyebrows, knowing that she wanted to get away from them as soon as possible and never have anything to do with them again.

But how could he let this guy go so easily?

Zhang Xu smiled gently and called Wei En from behind:

“Why are you walking so fast? Are you trying to get rid of us?”

Noticing the playful smile on Zhang Xu’s lips, everyone was a little puzzled.

I always feel that Zhang Xu seems to have a lot of ill will towards this guy named Wei En?

But where does this malice come from?

Before today, it seemed that Zhang Xu had only met her once?

Still got called…

Wayne took a deep breath, suppressed the urge in his heart and turned around.

She really wanted to ignore Zhang Xu’s words, quicken her pace and leave.

But she didn’t dare – she didn’t dare to disobey Zhang Xu’s words, let alone provoke this guy. Once she angered this guy, her own death would be a small matter, and the entire Demacia would probably have no way to stop this guy.

Although Zhang Xu’s previous request was to enter the city in a peaceful manner, Wayne did not think that this guy was a good guy and would not really take action.

Maybe he just doesn’t want to get involved?

It was beyond her ability to guess what was going on in the mind of a guy of this level.

Vayne shuddered subconsciously as he recalled the scene on Shadow Island. He forced out a smile and said as quietly as possible:

“Haven’t I taken you into the city? Do you have any other instructions?”

“Take us to your house and stay there. I think your house should be quite big, right? Otherwise, it would be inconvenient for so many of us.”

Zhang Xu nodded seriously, completely ignoring Wayne’s stunned face.

There was actually no deep meaning behind this action. Firstly, he remembered that Wayne’s family had a manor, which could indeed accommodate so many of them. Secondly, Zhang Xu did not want to spend money.

If they had to find a place to live outside, it would cost a lot of money for so many people.
