Chapter 186 Escape

Kassadin's eyes sparkled with hope.

But the next second, Azir's words shattered his fantasy: "Unfortunately, her situation is too special. Even Nasus can't solve it. I can't think of a solution now."

The water of life in the Dawn Oasis can heal all things. As long as the injured person is still breathing, it can revive the person and even allow the soul to reshape the body.

But it cannot heal the scars and corruption caused by the void.

Thousands of years ago, hundreds of celestial warriors were buried in the Void War. Most of the survivors who ascended still suffered from the erosion of the void, even with the help of the Water of Life.

Nasus once closed the Great Library and studied this phenomenon for decades, but failed to find a suitable solution.

Azir was naturally helpless about this.

"Is this so..."

Kassadin lowered his head in disappointment, looking at his daughter with distress in his eyes.

"It's okay, Dad, now that we have reunited, it doesn't matter whether this skin can be removed or not." Kasha comforted, "Besides, Li Lin said he would conduct research to help me, didn't he?"

She turned her head and blinked her moist eyes at Li Lin.

Li Lin, who understood what Kasa meant, immediately said: "Of course, I will try my best."

Kassadin felt his eyes well up, and a thousand words were condensed into just one word: "Thank you..."

Azir shook his head invisibly, not expressing any hope for this.

Nezuk, once the best researcher of magical technology in the empire, was unable to understand the secret of the void.

It would be even more whimsical for an ordinary anthropologist to do.

"The danger of the void is far beyond your imagination. I don't recommend that you study it." Azir reminded.

"In Piltover, there is a pool of alchemical and biochemical venom that formed an intelligent life form. His way of existence is somewhat similar to the living skin on Kai'Sa. I want to start from this aspect." Li Lin quickly explained. My own opinion.

"If that's the case, that's not bad..."

Azir nodded, and his flaming eyes suddenly turned to Sivir, who had lowered his head and remained silent.

Oops, I’ve obviously lowered my sense of existence so much...

She raised her face bravely and looked at Azir, "Uh, can I give you water and shade?"

Azir stared at Sivir and was silent for a long time, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a while, Azir spoke slowly, with the solemnity and majesty of an emperor: "Why did you flee the City of the Sun in the first place?"

Sivir's breath was stagnant, and his pounding heart almost jumped from his chest and out of his throat.

She had forgotten that she had sneaked away from the City of the Sun, but now she ran back stupidly.

If he could travel through time, Sivir would definitely go back to the eve when he stepped into the gate of the City of the Sun and slap himself hard at that time.

"This is our right to rule, Sivir... Do you think it is humiliating to have my bloodline?"

Azir's voice was hoarse and low, but there was no hint of accusation in it.

On the contrary, a sense of loneliness and loneliness enveloped the hearts of everyone at the scene, making them feel sad.

Sivir wanted to show a tougher attitude, but Azir's short words instantly overturned his attitude, "I... never thought of it that way."

She shook her head.

For some reason, the voices and smiles of her long-dead parents appeared in her mind.

"I'm just used to freedom and don't like the feeling of being restrained..."

"I have never restricted your freedom." Azir said, "But now is not the time. There are too many threats for me to deal with."

The end of the pointed spear and scepter in his hand hit the gold-paved floor tiles hard, making a crisp collision sound.

"You saw it during the time of Vicora, a traitor... a demigod who wanted your life just to end my bloodline.

"I asked you not to leave the City of the Sun, because only here, under the protection of the Sun Disk, Xerath would not dare to invade, and I could keep you safe.

"You are my only bloodline and my only family now. Do you think I will harm you?"

"..." Sivir lowered his eyes and was speechless for a moment.

Li Lin, Kassadin and Kaisha stood silently, not daring to speak for Sivir.

This is a family matter of the royal family, and Azir can be considered as trusting them by discussing such matters in front of them.

It would be somewhat disrespectful to interrupt someone at this time.

After a long silence, Sivir took a deep breath and said a word that she had never said since her parents died: "I'm sorry..."

It wasn't just the shocking mural of the Void War in front of the gate of Azir's Mausoleum that made her blood boil.

After going through so much with Li Lin and Kassadin, and fighting against the void twice with them, Sivir's mentality has already changed unconsciously.

Icasia is just a microcosm of the void's invasion of this world.

If it were not for the former warriors of the gods to continue and fight against them without fear of death, the entire world would be swallowed up and become part of nothingness.

And he happens to be the heir to the ascended bloodline...

Why are you running away from Sivir?

Are you afraid of death?

Or are you unwilling to take on the responsibility that should be yours to lead Shurima to glory?

Sivir couldn't help but ask himself.

Azir saw Sivir's struggle and knew that she just had difficulty accepting her royal status for a while.

She still needs time...

Azir shook his head, not wanting to go any further on this topic, "Let's go to the treasure trove."

…

…

Shurima's treasure vault is located underground in the inner city of the City of the Sun.

Azir led Li and Lin to the palace, and after going around countless twists and turns, they stopped in a huge hall.

A golden round platform engraved with the logo of an eagle wrapped in a sun disk is located in the center of the hall, shining with golden cold light.

In fact, this round platform is just an elevator, but the power driving it is not electricity, but magic.

As it descends for about 30 seconds, the surrounding environment gradually changes from hot to cool.

The round platform finally came to a stop, and a huge underground space hundreds of meters high was revealed within Li Lin's field of vision.

Looking around, huge golden warriors carved from pure gold stand on both sides of the hall. Countless stacked bookshelves, treasure boxes, and display stands filled with strange and strange items extend deep into the hall, with no end in sight.

Li Lin, Kassadin, Kai'Sa and Sivir were all shocked.

They originally thought that for thousands of years, the treasures in this city sunk under the sea of ​​sand had been plundered by treasure hunters, tomb robbers and expedition teams.

But the scene in front of them made them suspect that those people were not really looking for the right place at all.

Or perhaps, these items exist in the emperor's tomb that has never been pried open...

Azir noticed the expressions and reactions on their faces and was very satisfied.

"Each of you can freely choose two items here as my reward to you... The function of each item is explained on the sign on the display stand.

"But you are all ordinary people, so you must do what you can. There are no ordinary things here. Don't choose some dangerous magic items that you cannot control.

"I still have a lot of things to deal with, so I won't wait for you here."

Azir casually summoned a yellow sand soldier.

"After choosing, show the items to him and he will take you to Nasus."
