Chapter 333 Demacia
Demacia…
Looking at the immortal and majestic city below the towering mountains, Zhang Xu couldn’t help but feel dazed.
Demacia, he was attracted by these four words when he first started playing the game. When he chose the region, he did not hesitate at all and directly chose Demacia.
Now that he has really seen this magnificent capital, Zhang Xu’s heart is actually very complicated. Many people on the Internet say that Demacia is a hypocritical justice, and Noxus is the real gospel for the common people… Is this really the case?
Is a country that can use biological and chemical weapons to invade other countries, a country that can abandon its own generals at will and even cruelly use biological and chemical weapons against its own generals really suitable for a civilian with no background?
Speaking of power, the status enjoyed by the Noxian nobles is not much worse than that of the Demacia nobles.
On the other hand, in Demacia, although the nobles hold most of the power and enjoy a variety of resources, they are always the first to take the lead in foreign wars.
Heirs of the Crownguard family like Garen would go to the battlefield in person, and Jarvan I even died directly on the battlefield.
Such a country may not be as dirty as it is said on the Internet.
No country can be perfect.
The same is true for Demacia.
This is a powerful kingdom where the rule of law is supreme, with a long-standing reputation for military exploits. Demacia has always valued justice, honor, and responsibility, and is almost fanatically proud of its traditions and heritage. However, despite adhering to these noble principles, over the past few hundred years, the headstrong Demacia has become increasingly isolated from the world, becoming synonymous with isolationism.
Of course, Demacia’s ban on magic is pretty funny.
The Demacia capital is built on the Forbidden Stone, a white rock that can suppress magical energy. It was originally a refuge built by people to avoid the invasion of magic after the Rune War. The royal power radiates from the center, guarding remote towns, farmlands, forests, and mineral-rich mountains.
It is precisely because the magic-forbidden stone can curb magic that an unknown old bald man hid the runes he had collected with great effort here, relying on the power of the magic-forbidden stone pillar to curb the power of the runes. However, because most of the runes are buried here, newborns born here will more or less have some magical talents.
And if you think about it carefully, the heroes of Demacia are really quite abstract.
Fiona, who couldn’t say it earlier or later, but chose to regret the engagement in front of countless dignitaries on the day of the engagement party, bringing shame to the family and eventually stabbing her father to death with her own hands; Vayne, who had taught her for countless years and saved her life countless times, and they already had a mother-daughter relationship, but stabbed her in the heart without hesitation just because she transformed into a Freljord wolf in front of her; Galen, who had seen his uncle die at the hands of a wizard and personally swore to never let magic enter their walls, but didn’t dare to face the fact that his sister had a magical talent…
Of course, there is also Lux, who is jokingly called the witch of nation-destroying by netizens, and Sylas, who led troops into the pass and caused countless civilians in Demacia to be displaced.
Don’t say he was out for revenge…
How can revenge mean going to other countries to borrow troops to attack your own country?
Isn’t this pure Wu Sangui…
The heroes of Demacia are all more outrageous than the last.
“Hey! Sooner or later I will come here to fight! I want to let these damned little beasts feel the real iron cavalry!”
Klei shouted out in a slightly sharp voice. He was really suffocated on the way.
Because Zhang Xu didn’t like him swearing, let alone endless swearing.
If he didn’t want to be turned into a plant by Lulu and unable to move, then he had to shut his mouth.
In fact, Klei still hasn’t figured out how he ended up following Zhang Xu and his gang in a daze, and then came here in a daze.
Obviously, I should be drinking in the tavern in Drune at this time.
Klei looked around in some surprise, and when his eyes fell on Naganeka behind Zhang Xu, he nodded subconsciously.
Well, it must be because Naganeka left and there was no one to drink with me, so I followed them here.
Well, that must be the case.
“Is this Demacia? Although the land area is a bit small, the environment is surprisingly good.”
Feeling the scenery and environment around her which was much better than Noxus, Sarah stretched out her body and leaned lazily on Kassa. Kassa rubbed her waist, holding up Sarah’s body, with a blush on her face.
“So… where are we going to find Aatrox now?”
Naganeka stared straight ahead and said seriously:
“After arriving in Demacia, this feeling of being summoned became more and more obvious. I can feel that it should be in this direction… It is not in the Demacia capital closest to us.”
Naganeka pointed her finger in the air, with a strange look on her face.
It has been two days since entering the territory of Demacia. Naganeka has been observing this place carefully, but what puzzles him is that he did not feel anything unusual.
Someone who is worthy of being Aatrox’s opponent…
Not in Demacia?
“This direction…”
Zhang Xu looked at the map and said thoughtfully, “According to this direction, Aatrox should be in Mithril City or… Fosbyro.”
“Since we don’t know the exact location, let’s go to both cities and take a look.”
……
Mithril City.
The Secret Silver City is located near the capital of Demacia, in the northwest of the imperial capital. It is a highland covered with rocks, where the legendary silver-winged dragon once appeared. The ancestral home of the Crownguard family, the most prominent family in Demacia besides the royal family, is located in this city.
As a meritorious family that has followed Jarvan I since the founding of Demacia, the Silver City is a reward for the Crownguard family.
However, most members of the Crownguard will go to the Demacia capital after their twelfth birthday. The glorious Fearless Vanguard will be their lifelong goal.
In other words, Garen is not in this city now.
And his sister, Laxana, has probably left the Silver City by now. According to the timeline…
At this point in time, Laxana should have already met Galio, right?
It shouldn’t be too long since I met Silas.
In other words…in the near future, the capital of Demacia will undergo a terrible change.
Chapter 334 Aatrox
Fosbiero, a border town nestled between mountains.
A man was sitting on the edge of a cliff of a high mountain. He looked ferocious and bloated, as if he had been forcibly molded into his current appearance by some terrible force. There was a huge sword beside him.
Aatrox, once the leader of the god-warriors and now the darkin.
He charged ahead in every noble battle, treating people with sincerity and leading his troops with skill. Other god-warriors always gathered under his banner, and behind him followed ten thousand mortal soldiers of Shurima.
When the Ascended Queen Setaka sought his aid in the rebellion in Icathia, Aatrox accepted without hesitation.
After years of bitter struggle, Aatrox and his kin finally contained the Void’s rampage and sealed the largest rift. But the Ascended who survived were forever changed by their enemies. Although Shurima had won, they all lost something… and the noble Aatrox was no exception.
As time passed, the once powerful Shurima was doomed to fall.
Without a throne to defend with their lives intact, and the threat of the Void no longer imminent, Aatrox and the Sunblood began to fight each other, eventually turning into a war that destroyed their world.
The mortals who managed to escape gave them a new name, which was also a derogatory term: Darkin.
To prevent the Darkin from completely destroying the world, the Twilight Aspect personally stepped in, using a gravitational pull more powerful than a thousand dead stars to drag him into the greatsword he had carried him into countless battles, locking his immortal spirit inside forever.
The weapon was a prison, locking his mind in an impenetrable eternal darkness, depriving him of even the ability to commit suicide. He was torn between these hellish fetters for hundreds of years, until a foolish prisoner grasped the greatsword and freed him.
Aatrox reshaped the body he had seized into its former appearance according to his own memory – but it was not an ascended body, and ultimately it could only become this weird appearance.
Aatrox had actually been resurrected a long time ago, and he had been wandering the continent, trying to find a way to return to his ascended body. But the mystery of the sword could not be solved in the end, and he realized that he might never be free. The flesh and blood that he had seized and cruelly reshaped became more and more like a mockery of his former glory, and the bodies he had killed and reshaped were like cages slightly larger than the greatsword.
As time went by, despair and shame began to grow in his heart. The divine power he once represented and all his memories seemed to be slowly fading away.
Perhaps it won’t be long before he completely loses all his sanity and becomes a terrible monster.
The Darkin closest to Demacia is Anaka the Darkin Warspear, and Anaka naturally becomes the first person to find Aatrox.
At this moment, she was standing not far behind Aatrox, looking at her leader worriedly.
In the past, she would never see Aatrox like this.
The Darkin Dragon Fan Blay and the Darkin Harp Stellato stood on both sides of Aatrox, with concerns also revealed on their faces.
“General…”
Aatrox suddenly raised his head, his bloodshot eyes swept across the faces of the three people, and he spoke in a hoarse voice:
“It seems that you are the only ones left among my compatriots.”
Looking at the current appearance of Anaca, Ble and Stellatu, Aatrox sighed imperceptibly, “I summoned you here this time for two reasons.”
“Zorani has resurrected… and I can sense that she has some disgusting plans. She is undoubtedly a disgrace to us.”
Zolani?
A face suddenly flashed through Anaca’s mind, and she couldn’t help but feel disgusted: “Is this guy resurrected too? What’s his plan this time?”
During the heyday of the Darkin Era, the Darkins possessed enough power to destroy the entire continent. However, such a force was unable to organize a resistance and was easily sealed by the Protoss.
The most important reason is definitely Zolani.
This guy is most likely the traitor who betrayed all of them, but what she didn’t expect was that Zolani herself was also sealed?
It’s really ridiculous.
“Zolani…I’m going to kill him!”
Stellatu had just been resurrected and was already holding a grudge. When he heard the name of the traitor, he immediately flew into a rage and wished he could appear in front of Zolani and slap her in the face.
“I don’t know what this guy is planning yet, but I guess… it should be related to Icathia.”
After hearing this, several people were stunned. Bley raised his tone in disbelief: “Is she crazy?”
“Whether she’s crazy or what… kill her and it’ll all be over.”
“I summoned you here mainly for the second matter.”
Aatrox sighed, his eyes looking deep and clear. “I can feel that I am gradually forgetting some things. This kind of forgetfulness is terrible… It may eventually turn me into a terrible monster.”
“Sometimes, some terrible thoughts even flash through my mind, dragging all creation into a final doomsday battle, and everything will be destroyed.”
This idea was not meant to destroy the entire world. The original intention of this idea made it even more difficult for him to accept – only in this way would he and the sword cease to exist forever.
“If one day, I really lose all my memories, please don’t hesitate and kill me without mercy. I don’t want the desperate me to destroy everything I once had.”
Aatrox felt that he was being gradually approached by the deep despair of a prisoner.
But fortunately, he is still eager to fight.
