Chapter 197 The Eighth Rule of Power

"Do you still know how to answer the phone? I thought you disappeared in Ionia!"

Listening to Lux's complaints, Rowan coughed and explained: "Something happened. Irelia should have helped me explain it to you, right?"

"Yes, but she couldn't explain it clearly. She just told me that you were going through some dragon test. Dragon, Rowan, are there really dragons in Ionia? Compared with the dragons here, are they stronger?"

"They should be stronger." Rowan thought for a while and said that most of the dragons in Demacia are earth dragons. Occasionally, you can find traces of flying dragons, but few people have seen them with their own eyes.

However, the combat power of Western dragons in Runeland is indeed not too high. As Rowan knows, for example, the Mama's Dragon and the Dragon Girl, both of them, whether they are themselves or their parents, their combat power is at most at the rule level.

The mother of the Dragon Lady was even killed by the Dragon Lady and Jarvan IV. Although she has the ability to destroy a city, in fact, in Demacia now, if the mother of the Dragon Lady dares to appear in the morning, a group of fearless pioneers wearing Hextech armor will go to slay the dragon in the afternoon.

Technology is definitely the fastest way to turn civilians into extraordinary beings. The importance of the two cities has come out. Whether it is alchemy technology or Hextech technology, it is the best way to raise the upper limit of human life and strength.

Therefore, although Demacia has not become the king of Valoran, everyone knows that Valoran now belongs to Demacia.

Haven't you seen that Noxus is now bowing its head and being a human being?

"Then I haven't seen what the dragon looks like." Lux said, and then she suddenly said on the other end of the Hextech transmitter: "Well, hello."

Rowan reacted, of course there is a time difference between Ionia and Demacia, estimated to be about four hours, so if it is morning here, it is afternoon on Lux's side.

So, Lux was saying hello to the students?

"By the way, Rowan, when are you going to come back? It's been almost two years, and the time you told me is not far away, right?"

"You didn't even attend my coming-of-age ceremony!" Lux complained.

"Sorry, Lux, I actually wanted to take some time to go back, but I didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing. Tell me, what can I do to make it up to you?" Rowan said apologetically.

Lux didn't invite too many people to her coming-of-age ceremony, only the Crown Guard family, the Bouvier family, and a few friends and teachers from the academy who had a good relationship with her.

Although her current status and position in Demacia are extremely high, Lux is not a vain person, and therefore, she did not plan to hold her coming-of-age ceremony in a big way, because before the ban on magic, Lux didn't even think that she could reach adulthood intact and safe.

But Lux still has a small luxury. That is, she really hopes that Rowan can come to her coming-of-age ceremony.

In Demacia, the coming-of-age ceremony is a very important thing for nobles, especially for female nobles. It is really one of the most important events in life, because the coming-of-age ceremony means that the woman will officially step out of the social circle.

And nobles often marry each other.

Demacia is good, this is indeed true, but in Demacia, nobles and commoners can get married?

Ha, how is it possible!

From the founding of Demacia to the present, there are really few such things. Take the case of the Bouville family. Lestara and Barrett are hailed as the most surprising couple. The reason is that the Bouville family is a big family, and Mrs. Lestara's family is just a small noble family in the suburbs of Demacia.

Their marriage surprised the Demacia people and they thought it was inappropriate. In this case, the big noble chose the small noble, and the man chose the woman. If it is the other way around, it is the woman who chooses the small noble or the commoner.

This does not exist.

Therefore, when a woman enters the social circle, it means that all men in the circle can try to pursue each other.

This is not presumptuous, but a rule.

Therefore, Lux hopes that Rowan can come to her coming-of-age ceremony, and she did not invite other men of the same age!

Isn't she popular?

How is that possible!

She is a direct descendant of the Crown Guard family. She has a beautiful face and a lively and sunny personality. With outstanding abilities, Lux was already an important topic in the social circle a year before the coming-of-age ceremony.

Of course, with the status of the Crown Guard family, Lux's abilities, and the well-known relationship between Rowan and Lux ​​in the country, Lux is certainly not pursued by anyone.

Jarvan IV is not an option either. Before this, before Rowan appeared, everyone actually suspected that Lux would become a couple with Jarvan IV.

Because the marriage between the Light Shield family and the Crown Guard family can consolidate the royal power of the Light Shield and stabilize the country of Demacia.

But now. No one thinks this will happen.

Because the hero of the country, Black Lion Rowan, he will not agree.

Who doesn't know the relationship between these two people?

They have been together for three or four years and have a close relationship. It is no exaggeration to say that they are childhood sweethearts and best playmates.

Especially when Rowan robbed the execution ground and took Lux away. Ha. That incident is now a good story in Demacia.

"Compensation? Not necessary." Lux's voice suddenly became much softer.

Recalling what her mother asked her at the coming-of-age ceremony, Lux's face turned a little red.

[Lux, now that you are an adult, when do you plan to marry Rowan? In fact, when you were sixteen, your father and I wanted you to get engaged to Rowan, but you were away at that time, and after you came back, you went to be the dean of the college, and there was never a chance to tell you.

Regarding this matter, His Majesty Jarvan III has also agreed. He said that he can be a witness to the engagement between you and Rowan and give his blessings to your wedding. What do you think? 】

What do I think?

What else could I think!

I.

Lux's face turned redder and redder.

"Say it, Lux, I'll do anything."

"Ahem, I said no, you just need to come back soon." Lux emphasized, strengthening her tone.

"???"

In the hut in Ionia, Rowan held the Hex transmitter with a confused look on his face.

No. Could this be Lux?

Logically speaking, when you hear yourself say this, based on this girl's character, shouldn't you immediately get angry and make various demands to yourself?

For example, she asked Rowan to take her on a trip. Lux had many places she wanted to visit, and Freljord was one of them. She had visited her home many times, so she had no complaints at all. Then Rowan I don't believe it.

Because what Rowan likes about Lux very much is that you can’t see the reserve of ordinary noble ladies in Lux. In Lux, if you like it, you like it, if you hate it, you hate it. She is not the one who hides and tucks.

Lux is not a tea master. She is straightforward and speaks straightforwardly. Although she occasionally makes some weird remarks, they are not malicious. Therefore, this is not the Lux that Rowan knows!

Did something happen in Xiongdu, or did something happen in the academy?

But over there, Lux said: "Anyway, you should come back as soon as possible."

"Sona misses you too."

"I will send a message to Sona later."

"So I'm the first one to talk to you?" Lux's voice jumped.

"Otherwise?" Rowan said funny.

You are the only person who has made more than 1,300 phone calls to me!

"Then I forgive you. By the way, Rowan, let me tell you, the past few days in the academy." Lux began to share with Rowan what happened during this time.

Rowan listened carefully.

It was already three hours later when I hung up the phone.

Rowan then contacted Sona and Kaisha respectively.

Sona shared something with Rowan, but Kasha only left one sentence - "Bring back some local specialties, preferably food!"

990, early May.

Ionia has entered spring and summer. This year, all parts of Ionia and the islands are preparing for one thing, and that is the Spirit Blooming Festival early next year.

The spirit tree bloomed. In February of this year, the spirit tree gave birth to a lot of buds. Although not enough, it also drove the Ionians into madness because it meant that they could communicate with their dead relatives. See you.

And why did the spiritual tree suddenly sprout buds?

Li Qing in Shuoji Temple felt that he had a say in this matter.

"Is there such a thing?"

At this moment, in front of Li Qing, the elder was stroking his beard, with a look of surprise on his face and sighing eyes.

"I didn't expect that Shenlong's spiritual message could be rejected. Li Qing, what did you think after seeing this?"

"I want to become a Venerable." Li Qing said piously.

"Why? As you can see, the so-called dragons are just powerful beings that exist in another world. I don't even know what their attitude is towards us." The elder asked calmly .

The elder also knew about this matter two years ago. The fire swept through Shuoji Temple and burned down the temple, but it also burned out the signs of something.

"I need strength, elder," Li Sin replied.

"I understand." The elder stretched out his hand, patted Li Qing's shoulder, and said with a gentle smile: "You will become a venerable, Li Qing."

"Yes, elder." Li Qing responded.

He must become a Venerable, not because Li Qing is greedy for power, but in order to protect Ionia and no longer let this land be stained with sorrow and war, he must have power. He must face the future of Ionia. Difficulties faced.

Marson.

Seti grew up very quickly. In just over a year, this boy had grown a head taller. Now he looked no worse than Rowan, and his body was very strong. He didn't look like a teenager at all.

It seems that after some time, Seti will become as tall and strong as in the background story?

No, maybe Seti will become taller? After all, in the background story, even if Yu didn't starve Seti, in terms of nutrition, it was definitely not as good as it is now.

Rowan sat on the hill. He had been here for two months.

During this period, Sett was taken care of by Yu and continued to practice. Now Sett will face those Noxians in the past. Although he cannot defeat ten against one, at least he will not be singled out without doing anything. Something about pressing your hands to the ground.

After all, Yu now has to be serious in order to suppress Seti.

During this time, Rowan also successfully absorbed the spiritual rules.

The spiritual realm of Runeland was successfully absorbed by Rowan, allowing Rowan to feel the power of spiritual rules.

This power is difficult for Rowan to describe in words.

Spiritual power is a very special rule power. Unlike other rule powers that are powerful on the surface, spiritual power is secretive and mysterious.

Of course, Rowan is definitely not the only one who masters the spiritual rules. After mastering the spiritual rules, Rowan immediately felt a dark breath.

Powerful, mysterious, evil

If Lissandra did not hide her strength, then the strength of the owner of that breath would be no less than Lissandra.

But Rowan knew very well that Lissandra could not have hidden her strength, and the owner of this breath, she could not hide her strength.

Because she is - Dark Leader Syndra.

That breath is very far away, high in the sky, and Rowan can recognize it with just a little analysis.

Dark, powerful, mysterious, Ionia has many talented people.

No one knows how many monsters there are in Vastaya alone, but this kind of domain-level aura can only belong to those masters.

After all, Sindra definitely has the combat power of a demigod.

"Hu——"

Hiding his aura, Rowan exhaled a breath of turbid air.

Looking at his Tao fruit.

There are already seven kinds.

Counting Janna's wind rule, then Rowan only has one kind of rule power left.

Thinking of this, Rowan returned to the wooden house.

Seti and Yu saw Rowan and came up to him.

"Is the training over?" Seti asked curiously.

He also tried to learn Rowan to practice, but he only persisted for three days and Seti gave up.

That is not a human learning at all.

How can someone sit there motionless for two months without eating or drinking?

No, is the person who can do this really a human?

"No, I need to go out." Rowan shook his head, looked at Seti, and then looked at Yu. Rowan continued: "It will take about two or three months. During this period, you must protect your mother. After I finish my training, I will take you to Demacia."

"Yeah." Seti nodded, patted his chest and said: "I will protect my mother. You don't need to tell me."

Yu wanted to say ha, but her lips moved twice, she pursed her lips and said nothing.

After Rowan finished speaking, he flew directly into the air without stopping.

"Damn! Rowan, you can fly?!"

Seti screamed from below.

Rowan smiled and said loudly: "There are still many things you don't know."

————

Zuan.

The little blue bird in the shrine shook its wings and sneezed, and then this cute little blue bird showed a strange expression.

Yes, the bird's face really showed a human expression.

Then, it showed a look of sudden enlightenment.

It flapped its wings and flew towards a place.

On a small island in the sea, Rowan looked at the little blue bird and smiled.

"Janna, please."

A woman with long ears, fair skin and long legs appeared in front of Rowan. She was tall and slender, with facial features like an elf. She was so beautiful that she didn't look like a human. She nodded and said softly: "This is what I promised you."

"But what do I need to do?" Janna, who became a god through faith, didn't quite understand how to give her power to Rowan.

She is different from other gods. Other gods are created by the Rune Land or cultivated by their own efforts, while Janna is a god pushed up by people's faith.

Her upper limit is higher than other gods, but at the same time, her lower limit is also higher.

When the number of believers decreases, her power will dissipate.

"I need to observe your power of rules." Rowan said to Janna.

Janna nodded, raised her hand, and gently reached out. A staff appeared in her hand.

The waves were stirring, the island was turbulent, and the wind was coming.

Rowan closed his eyes and turned on the system.

[Sensing the rules of wind, do you want to absorb it? ]

Rowan of course chose to confirm.

The rule power formed by the mainstream elements may not be rare enough, but it is definitely powerful. This is what Lux told Rowan.

It is not that thunder is stronger than wind, and it is not that ice is stronger than water.

Rare means that the cognition is not enough, but it does not mean that the upper limit is higher.

Therefore, wind is the rule power that Rowan originally decided to take.

Besides, if he is not sure, where can he find the eighth rule power?

Rowan is now worried about how to obtain his ninth rule power.

After all, Rowan has basically absorbed all the rule power of Ionia that can be absorbed.

Is it to find Karma or Syndra?

Ha, it would be strange if Karma could see him, and Syndra? I am afraid that a bunch of balls will be thrown at him when they meet.

Putting aside all distractions, Rowan entered the system space.

Janna hesitated for a moment, then she chose to stay and protect Rowan.

Transformed into a little blue bird, Janna flew to Rowan's head and nestled on it.

"It's far worse than my shrine."

Janna moved her little claws, moved Rowan's hair, and whispered.

Well. It's far worse!
