Chapter 787 [0775] You Will Be the Queen
Qiana entered the restricted area again.
It seemed that every time she entered the restricted area, her identity would change slightly.
Even this time, before entering the restricted area, many great elementalists had expressed their respect to her, either explicitly or implicitly.
Qiyana knew very well what these people meant by their attitude, and also understood why they did this. She even had high expectations for everything that would follow.
After all, she and her father were completely different people.
You can say that Qiyana's desire for power was overwhelming, and that she was scheming, but you can never say that she was irresponsible.
So, in Qiyana's view, she was indeed a more suitable successor.
It was precisely because of this self-awareness that when she saw Karya, she looked quite radiant, as if she was looking forward to Karya crowning her.
On the other hand, Karya looked at Qiyana's appearance, but secretly wanted to laugh in her heart.
Not a laugh, but a knowing smile.
Karya actually saw a lot of young people like Qiyana.
In the Shurima Empire, the inheritance of the emperor's throne and the ascenders are two systems, and Setaka and Kalya are the common source of these two systems, so every emperor must get the approval of Setaka and Kalya before ascending the throne.
Although Setaka looks serious, she is actually a very gentle person - she has always been very kind to her descendants; on the contrary, Kalya, who is always cheerful, often stands up to be the villain who plays the white face.
Therefore, when the successors of the Shurima throne meet Kalya, they often subconsciously show their best spirit in an attempt to get Kalya's approval.
Among these people, many are quite similar to Qiyana in front of them: young, radical, ambitious, eager for power and change.
Perhaps for other forces, this kind of young leader is immature.
But for the Shurima Empire, this kind of leader is just right - the steady part is taken care of by the ascenders, and the most important thing for the new emperor to ascend the throne is the new atmosphere.
Conservatism and stubbornness will accumulate.
When the throne of Shurima was replaced, Kalya was very inclined to young and energetic princes and princesses. It didn't matter if they were not mature enough after taking office, but it mattered if they were bound by their hands and feet and would only follow the old path.
The Shurima Empire, with the Thousand Gods Legion, was already strong enough for conservatives. If the emperor was still unwilling to make some changes, it would only become more and more lifeless.
And now, in Ixtar, the situation is quite similar.
This era is not the era when Ixtar should hide in the rain forest and live his own life.
From Kalya's perspective, he needs Ixtar to appear in the eyes of the world and provide a new model for people. He also needs Ixtar's Kalya Legacy to make further preparations for fighting the void.
For Ixtal, it seems quite free to continue to be trapped in the rainforest, but considering that Azir is actively active, Demacia is carrying out magic industrialization, and Vaz'an in the north is also trying to explore the rainforest, if he continues to hide in the rainforest to unify, the result in the future can only be that he will be found at the door and forced to be in a hurry.
It is better to take the initiative to walk out of the rainforest and rely on Ixtal's current advantages and relatively mature original axiom system to find his own place in the unformed Runeland pattern.
This is good for everyone.
Looking at Qiyana who was expecting something in front of him, Kalya simply got straight to the point and said something shocking.
"So, they decided that you should become the Queen of Elements?"
This sentence was so direct that even though her heart was full of expectations, Qiyana was still wrapped in an indescribable joy at this time, so that her brain was briefly blank.
Lord Kalya... Lord Kalya recognized me?
At this moment, she had completely forgotten her previous doubts about Kalya's identity, and had completely ignored the idea that "if he is Kalya, then I am still Setaka".
At this moment, she only knew that the dream she had been looking forward to for many years finally had the possibility of realization.
Elemental Queen!
Hahaha, I am the Elemental Queen!
As the tenth princess of Ixtal, Qiyana once thought that she had no qualifications to become the Elemental Queen.
But now with Kalya's recognition, under the current situation in Ixtal, no one will object.
It doesn't matter whether she is the eldest princess or the tenth princess!
Resisting the joy in her heart, Qiyana tried her best to maintain her expression management, just lowered her head and nodded slightly, trying to show that she was not surprised and was not surprised by praise or criticism.
However, her slightly trembling body and fingers that had nowhere to put betrayed her excitement at this moment.
"..."
Kalya did not speak, but looked at her quietly.
After a while, Qiyana finally recovered from her excitement. When she looked up again, facing Karya's expectant eyes, she quickly gave her answer.
"Ixtal's great elementalists are gathering." She said with a firm tone, full of obligation, "The void rift must be bridged!"
……………………
Qiana's answer was in line with Karya's expectations.
Kalya has no interest in the political strife in Ixtal. In the final analysis, he has only three goals.
The first is to activate the Malphite Network and take Malphite back to Demacia.
The second is to close the void rift and eliminate the void nourished by Malzahar.
The third is to guide Ixtal to change its policies and no longer stick to the rainforest.
Once Qiyana actively becomes the Great Elementalist and goes to close the void rift with the Malphite Network under her control, then all three of his goals can be said to be achieved.
So, facing such a wise Qiyana, Karya also showed his kind side as an ancestor.
He cooperated with Ixtal very seriously and participated in the coronation ceremony of the Queen of Elements. By the way, he also helped to serve as a free etiquette consultant.
Of course, during this process, he also successfully transported Malphite No. 1 to 10 out of the restricted area and confirmed the assembly of the Great Elementalists.
In addition, under his insistence, the captive Taric also participated in the battle. He will use a battle to exchange for his freedom.
While Qiyana ascended the throne and the great elementalists gathered for war in Ixtal, the autonomous committee of Icathia also mobilized.
Even though Icathia was still devastated, Jilan still insisted on assembling the team and participating in the work of healing the void rift.
Not all Icathians agreed with Jilan's resolution. In their view, Icathia, which had just gained the ability to engage in foreign trade, should seize the rare development window and accumulate strength as much as possible.
The Icathians, who were used to being blocked, were used to being poor. Many people were worried that the trade routes that were finally established would be cut off again after some changes in the future.
Jilan could not help laughing at their thoughts.
There was nothing wrong with worrying about the trade routes being cut off.
But you don't think about how this trade route came about.
The situation in Runeterra is very different now. Azir has been resurrected and is ready to create a new Shurima. Ixtar will no longer stay in the rainforest. Demacia in the north is where Karya is fully engaged...
It is foreseeable that the future of the entire Runeterra will be an integration after a long period of division. Regardless of whether a unified empire like the past Shurima Empire will be born, at least it is certain that hiding from sight and engaging in glorious isolation will only end up being abandoned by the times!
Moreover, the void rift to be closed this time is just to the north of Icathia.
For Ixtar, this is right beside his bed.
For Icathia, isn't this the same?
In addition, just as the radicals of Ixtar believe, closing the void rift itself is a matter of diplomatic advantage. Icathia's participation in this matter is both to give herself peace of mind and to pave the way for the future. How could she give up for a little bit of immediate profit?
As a real old monster, Jilan knew very well that compared with other large forces in Runeland, Icathia's congenital deficiency was too serious - in the long years when it was blocked by everyone, the total population of Icathia could not grow, and now there are only a few hundred thousand people in the country.
It is far from enough for this population to gain a foothold by relying solely on its own time magic and the inheritance of the autonomous committee.
If Icathia wants to remain independent and autonomous in the future, the best way is to be more positive and let Icathia have a separate and irreplaceable identity, and never be able to stand in the future international order itself.
This identity is not easy to find.
But it is not impossible to find.
Economically, since Icathia used to rely on mages to engage in soilless cultivation to feed the people, Icathians have very rich experience advantages in small-scale special cultivation.
Icathia can provide some spices and plants that cannot be provided elsewhere, and can take a high-end route - this has been reflected to a certain extent in Icathia's trade.
In terms of politics, the provider of eternal flames... is a good identity.
Jilan is now very sure that Icathia is not suitable to raise the banner of the successor of the Shurima Empire.
There are Azir, Qiyana, and Lux, no matter which one, it is more legitimate than Icathia. At this time, claiming to be the orthodox of the Shurima Empire is not to integrate into the new order, but to commit suicide.
Therefore, Icathia's political attitude should be to recognize history and show the independent attitude of the Icathia Autonomous Committee.
To achieve this, the best way is to find an ecological niche that only Icathia can bear, and now it seems that this ecological niche is best to be the provider of the Eternal Flame.
With the increasing frequency of void activities, Jilan has clearly realized that the void must be the biggest threat to Runeland and the common enemy of all Runeland forces.
In this case, the significance of the Eternal Flame is very important. Even if it is not enough to bridge the void rift and eliminate the void watcher, it can at least curb the actions of the void creatures and cause their fear.
Once everyone recognizes the significance of the Eternal Flame, Icathia, the only one who can provide the Eternal Flame, will naturally have a certain initiative.
Therefore, this action to bridge the void rift is not only to clear the enemies around the corner, but also an advertising action.
Want to fight the pesky Void?
Then use the Eternal Flame!
Which Eternal Flame brand is better?
Icacia is looking for Kiran!
……………………
Although the process was a bit bumpy, under the influence of Kalya, a coalition targeting the Void Rift was finally successfully formed after Qiyana ascended the throne.
Youqiyana from the north personally led the team, and the participants were the great elementalist and high-level elementalist of Yishui - the Ixtal people had spent a lot of money this time, and mobilized a large number of high-end combat forces from various places, preparing to join the battle. One line.
In addition, they have also prepared an amazingly large engineering force. The members of this engineering force are all skilled users of the original axioms of the earth. They can be said to be wizards of dust removal. As long as the battle is over, they will quickly completely clear the void rift. Fill it up without leaving any gaps.
On the Icathia side, the Autonomous Committee formed a team, supplemented by senior spellcasters and dominated by Icathia guards, to participate in the frontal battle.
Yes, this is a team where Master can only play support.
As for why Icacia's senior spellcasters can only serve as auxiliary positions...it's not that the education level of Icacia's mages is low and it's difficult for mages to hold big positions.
It's because the identity of this "Ecathia Guards" is really special.
The leader of this team is known as Kaua'ali, currently held by Jax.
Before the Battle of Icathia, before the Void descended on this land, the name Kauaali represented the elites who protected the Mage King.
Icathia guards should be proficient in the use of a variety of weapons, and can use any weapon under any circumstances to cause the most shocking blow to the enemy - and this martial arts inheritance has a more resounding name.
Weapons master.
In other words, the members of the Icathia Guard are all weapons master reserves.
Compared with time spells that are extremely challenging for one's talent and cannot be easily passed on, Icacia's weapon master combat skills are undoubtedly a more reliable means of inheritance, although not everyone can master this complexity to the extreme like Jax. Although the fighting methods of the Icathia Guards are completely integrated, this team, called the Icathia Guards, can be regarded as the most capable military organization in Rune Land.
In terms of personal strength, even the Dauntless Vanguard of Demacia can't compare with them - and what's even more outrageous than the Fearless Vanguard is that they also have an exclusive mage auxiliary team. With the same establishment size, they can't compete with Icathia. The guards, even the full Moon Legion, can only be regarded as chickens and dogs!
Now, in order to close the void rift quickly and well, and to fully demonstrate the restraint of the Eternal Flame on the void creatures, the Icathia Autonomous Council decided to gather the Icathia guards and go north to join the battle.
Kalya’s Little Classroom·Ekasia Guardian:
This legion, which has inherited the ancient martial arts of Icathia, not only has outstanding martial arts, but also inherited Icathia's former weapons arsenal, and is assisted by a full-time mage group. It is a comprehensive and powerful legion, even in shallow sea operations. They are all very knowledgeable.
