Chapter 957 [0948] Changes

Time will not stop for anyone. Even if it is Jilan who manipulates time, most of the time he can only speed himself up and stop others.

In Vazuan, Kalya can clearly feel that the influence from Lux is being diluted.

Although in the memorial hall and museum, the unity and prosperity of Vazuan are inseparable from "Miss Lux", all the information facing the public has made a vague treatment of her detailed identity.

Interestingly, in the History Museum, Vazuan used the past division to divide its history into two parts - as part of the Shurima Empire, and the other part after rebirth.

Those old things belonging to the Shurima Empire were put into the museum and became cultural relics.

And the part that belongs to Vazuan now, even if it is inseparable from Shurima like the rune tree, it is necessary to emphasize the important role of Vazuan in its development now - as if Vazuan is a younger member of the Shurima family, and now he has grown up and set up his own family.

In other words, Vazuan is no longer part of the Shurima Empire. Vazuan was born from that ancient and glorious empire, but it stood up on its own in the ruins after the empire was destroyed.

To be honest, there is nothing wrong with this statement.

After all, Vazuan in the Shurima Empire era is completely different from Vazuan now.

But after a round of watching, Karya still couldn't help laughing.

Cutting is so fast!

And it's not just Vazuan.

Almost all the economically prosperous northern Shurima city-states will have similar actions without exception, and these actions reveal their deep fear of the Shurima Empire.

It is precisely because they know what the Shurima Empire means that they will do their best to separate from it.

They are willing to praise that empire because it is the source of civilization.

They hurriedly cut off that empire because they don't want to be part of the new Shurima Empire.

Karya sees this very clearly.

And Azir may have seen it clearly, but he may not have fully accepted it yet.

In a sense, this is also one of the reasons why Karya does not want to rebuild Shurima.

The Shurima Empire was born from conquest, but in addition to conquest, the Empire also brought civilization.

Now, each region of Shurima has its own civilization. Although these civilizations still retain the mark of the Empire, they have long lost their relationship with the Shurima Empire.

No one wants to have a father above their head.

And a father without a sun disk.

So in Karya's future blueprint, Shurima should be a loose alliance different from Demacia for a long time in the future - first strengthen the relationship with the northern city-states and the two former autonomous regions through harmless means, and establish cooperation.

Then whether the empire can return to complete unity depends on Azir's level. If Shurima can rise again, the historical heritage will become an irresistible centripetal force; otherwise, the Shurima Empire may only be able to maintain a bulk state for a long time.

He hinted at this to Azir, but whether Azir can understand it depends on his personal level.

After wandering around for a few days, Kalja left Vaz'an on a dragon and headed north back to Freljord.

The time for relaxing is over, it's time to get down to business.

When Kalja returned to Frostguard Fortress, it was completely controlled by the coalition.

Under the Howling Abyss, the work progress of Malphite's combat unit was quite good, and it would not take long for this not-so-large void rift to be repaired.

In this case, the coalition's journey to Freljord has also come to the final stage - as an ally, participating in the largest alliance activity after the three sisters.

Ashe, who has collected the relics of the three sisters, is now the theoretical leader of Freljord and the war mother of all war mothers.

The reason why it is "theoretically" is that under the tribal system, the connection between the war mother and the tribe is close enough, but Ashe has only theoretical connections with most tribes, so it is hard to say how much influence she, the "war mother of the war mother", can bring to other tribes.

This is also the main reason why Ashe urgently needs to hold an unprecedented large-scale alliance. She needs to establish her own authority and show her identity as the heir of the three sisters to all the Freljord tribes.

Even in a place like Freljord where people use fists to make sense, the title of the heir of the three sisters has enough weight - especially when the heir has a big enough fist, Ashe can use this as a basis to strive for the true unification of Freljord.

As for why the Northern Expedition Army was also invited to participate in the alliance...

Mainly because previous experience has taught Ashe that it is important to show actual benefits if she wants to swear power and shape authority.

And now the most practical benefits that the Avarosa tribe can bring depend largely on Demacia.

During the process of the coalition army's northward march, she was deeply impressed by the amazing logistical supply capabilities of the Demacia Northern Expedition Army. Since Ashe could not see the game between Demacia and Noxus from her perspective, what she could see was that "Demacians can transport supplies to Freljord from anywhere outside the snowfield."

This makes Ashe have great expectations for the future trade in Freljord. In her opinion, the future trade in Freljord can be carried out from three directions:

The Nuskala Pass in the west, the Turkgul Pass in the middle, and the Delverhold in the east.

Stop the war, develop trade, and use commodity exchanges to fill the stomachs of the Freljord people-before she was worried that the long transit would make the transportation cost unbearable, but now it seems that part of the transit cost can be handed over to Demacia!

Of course, she has not formally negotiated with Ashe on this part. After all, the finishing work of Frostguard Fortress has not been completely completed until Karya returns.

Although Karya is not very worried about the void worms, because of the battle of the Howling Abyss, the number of void worms in Freljord is really too much, and they are too dense. After a short rest, the coalition forces still need to perform some insecticide tasks to reduce the density of the swarm.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Karya.

Because not long after he came back, Nunu came to him with a full set of musical instruments.

"Mr. Kalya, tell me about the battle at Delverhold!" Nunu tried very hard to act like an adult. "Your heroic figure will be forever sung in the songs of the Freljord!"
