0658 Kalya and Ikasia(1/2)
Kieran can survive to this day naturally because he has mastered the power of time to a certain extent.
This is an area that even Kalya cannot step into and understand. It is no exaggeration to say that those who can truly understand time magic are out-and-out monsters.
And Kieran is such a monster.
However, Kalya was unwilling to say more about Kiran, just as he had consciously skipped the topic of Eternal Flame.
The Eternal Flame was "borrowed" by Kalya from Icathia.
However, before Nasus took the initiative to ask about it, no one else knew about the existence and characteristics of the Eternal Flame except Shyvana, who took him there - it was about Icathia, and Kalya was not good.
Tell Nasus, Azir and Xerath directly.
All they knew was that Kalya asked Ino to keep an eye on Thalia and continue to block the entrance to the laboratory, and then disappeared with Shyvana for a while. When they came back, Kalya brought back a special flame.
, and requested that this thing be sealed and disguised as a world rune.
Because of the previous contact with Jax, Kalya already knew the current situation of Icacia, so the process of obtaining the eternal flame was very smooth, even a bit lackluster, but Kalya still consciously avoided the origin of this flame. After all, Aika
The Cassia region is an unbearable pain for all Shuriman people.
If it weren't for the Icathian War, the Shurima Empire would still be thriving at this time, right?
With such knowledge, Shurima people often have a natural dislike for Icathia.
However, in Kalya's eyes, Icathia has been part of Shurima from the beginning, and the essence of the Icathia War is a local rebellion, not colonial independence.
This is the "Anshi Rebellion" in the Shurima Empire.
From a historical perspective, the root cause of the Icathian War was the uneven development caused by the empire's insufficient resources, and the fact that the empire's rule reached its physical limit due to political shortcomings.
The direct reason is that the Icathians are treated differently in politics to a certain extent, and even their mage king fails to qualify as an ascendant.
As for the discovery and use of the power of the void, it was the trigger of this war.
The Autonomous Council of Icathia has raised the banner of Shurima Empire's orthodoxy. This may be a bit funny in the eyes of many people, but it is not completely unrecognizable.
After being activated by Lux, Kalya often fell into deep thought in her spare time, thinking about the empire's gains and losses.
And the more he thought about it, the clearer some things became - when he tried to observe everything in the Icathia war without personal emotions, he had to admit helplessly that he underestimated the tension of the Icathia situation, and also
Subconsciously ignoring the huge development differences between the Shurima Empire and Icathia at that time.
At that time, Kalya thought, "Let Icathia endure it for a while. When he masters a new power that can replace the sun disk, Icathia will be the same as the rest of Shurima."
From this perspective, Kalya spent a lot of effort to appease the Icathians, including wooing the mages headed by Kiran, reducing taxes on Icathia to a certain extent, promoting maritime transportation, etc.
But unfortunately, what most Icathians see is the huge difference in living standards between them and the Shuriman people. It is the lower and lower ceiling above their heads when the resources of the Sun Disk are tight.
No one knows when Kalya's new energy will appear. For those who have not been able to cross the extraordinary limit, they can only grasp the moment.
While borrowing a fire, Kalya and Kiran chatted for a while.
Just as he guessed, when the power of the void entered the sight of the Icathians, it was "a power that can replace the sun's disk."
……………………
When Kalya defeated Belvis and finally explained the origin of the Eternal Flame, the expressions of Nasus and others were somewhat awkward.
There are some things that Kalya can see through, but they may not be able to accept them emotionally. Even though Eternal Flame seems to have completed its mission well and solved the void creature that seems difficult to deal with, when they think of it, it is Aika.
The West Asians still felt awkward about the method they used to control the power of the void and rebel against Shurima.
So, after a moment of awkward silence, everyone avoided the topic and quietly picked up the mess.
At this point, the Newgla laboratory is no longer reliable, and this world rune now needs a more secure hiding place.
Considering the underground appearance of Shurima, it is probably not easy to store this dangerous and critical world rune in ordinary places.
Therefore, Nasus took the initiative to propose that perhaps the original site of Shurima City could be returned and the world runes could be placed there.
"Many buildings and defense facilities in Shurima City have not completely failed." As a witness to the collapse of the empire, Nasus is actually unwilling to mention these most of the time. "It's just because of the fall of the sun disk and the
The entire city's structural collapse, it has now sunk under the yellow sand..."
"So, you are saying that the world runes can be placed in the ruins of Shurima City?" Ryze looked at Nasus, his tone was not very friendly, "With all due respect, I don't think this can guarantee that there will be no abuse.
danger.”
As he spoke, he glanced pointedly at Xerath in the arcane spirit state, making it clear what he was worried about.
"It's not yet time for me to return to Shurima City." Sensing Ryze's gaze, Xerath snorted, "Besides, I am not a timid person who knows nothing about power.
"
Xerath's words were also mixed with guns and sticks, and he consistently maintained his mockery of Ryze - he never looked down upon Ryze's inability to eat due to choking, and thought he knew more about the world's runes than just knowing how to use them.
There were many more people who had been sealed and stored. Seeing that the other party was making it clear again, they immediately counterattacked.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Seeing that there seemed to be another quarrel, Kalya could only step in to stop the quarrel.
"Stop, stop - Shurima City is not a good choice. Even if the defense facilities have not completely failed, it is not easy to activate them again. Moreover, according to Kaisha's description, the number of void creatures underground has been increasing.
For the sake of safety, I suggest sending this world rune to Vazuan."
Wazuan?
When Kalya mentioned this place, everyone was stunned.
Kai'Sa had heard of Zaun, but that was when she was a child.
Shyvana and Ino looked at each other, their expressions somewhat subtle.
Nasus narrowed his eyes slightly as he recalled what he had seen when he traveled to Vazuan before.
Ryze's face was expressionless.
At the same time, Azir and Xerath had doubts about whether the backcountry of Vazuana is still there.
"There is a large-scale planting of rune trees in Vazuan." Looking around, Kalya took in everyone's expressions and reactions. "Moreover, that is the place where I gave the first prince feathers. It is absolutely trustworthy and reliable."
"But you can't guarantee that mortals won't use this dangerous power rashly!" Ryze took the initiative to say, "Maybe you can trust Vazuan, but no mortal can resist the temptation of the power of the world's runes.
"
"Then just don't let mortals know." Kalya spread out his hands, "When did I tell the Wazuans that we were going to place a world rune here?"
With that said, Kalya explained his plan in detail.
The plan is actually very simple.
Just like Newgla's Laboratory, Vazuan also has a laboratory underground, and this laboratory has now been taken over by Vazuan and has become the Rune Tree's cultivation center.
In this case, it is naturally impossible to directly place the world runes in the laboratory.
But don’t forget that in the Zaun district of Vazuan, one industry has now completely declined due to the success of rune tree planting.
"We can place the world runes in the mines of Zaun." Kalya took out a map of Zaun from nowhere. "Due to uncontrolled mining, many mines in Zaun have been completely exhausted.
Moreover, due to the impact of the rune tree industry, the scale of Zaun's mining industry is also shrinking, so those mines with depleted resources are natural hiding places."
Looking at the map, Kalya began to describe the structure of the Zaun mines.
Main road, corridor, tunnel, ventilation channel, water channel...
Looking at the densely packed signs on the map, even the most cautious Ryze had to admit that if what Kalja said was true, then these mines were indeed natural hiding places.
Unlike Newgla Laboratory, there have never been void creatures near Vazuan - or in most areas of Northern Shurima, there are no traces of void creatures. Put the world runes there, and you don't have to worry about what will happen.
Here comes a void creature trying to devour it.
Moreover, from the perspective of Ino, who has been in a mine before, this is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.
In addition to the fact that Zaun's mine is a natural three-dimensional maze, if a world rune is hidden in the mine, it will be impossible to find it. It is also not far from Wazuan's rune tree cultivation base.
Placing the world runes here and promoting the planting of rune trees can prevent the breath of the world runes from leaking to a large extent. Even if part of the magic power of the world runes escapes, these escaped magic powers can become nutrients for the growth of the rune trees.
, so as not to be noticed by others.
Although both Xerath and Azir were not in favor of placing this world rune that may be related to Shurima's revival in Vazuan, the resourceful Ryze simply chose to lift the roof and directly proposed that the world rune could be placed in Vazuan.
Within Demacia.
This allowed Ryze to finally "convince" Xerath and Azir.
So, the group of people finally set off again and began to turn north and head to Wazuan.
Poor Shyvana, the hanging basket under her became a little heavier along the way.
……………………
The journey from Nugra to Varzuan was lackluster. It basically just kept flying, rested when you got tired when you reached Shyvana, and then continued flying.
When Shyvana finally arrived in Vazuan after spending nearly eight days, her body and spirit were already on the verge of reaching their limits.
After staying at Vazuan's hotel, Shyvana almost fell into a corpse-lying state and fell into a deep sleep as soon as she touched the bed.
But the others were different from Shyvana. They only had to sit in the gondola and wait along the way, so everyone was in good spirits. Therefore, after arriving in Vazuan, they briefly discussed it and then unanimously decided to go first.
Go to the mines of Vazuan.
Just take a look.
Under the leadership of Kalya, the group quickly arrived at Wazuan's mining area - after climbing over the fence marked "Geological Danger, No Entry", they finally arrived in front of this artificial maze.
