Chapter 223 Decide What to Do in the Future
"Are you planning to leave?"
While Rowan was eating the fruit, he heard Aoun not far away suddenly ask.
"Well, there's no point in me continuing to study. After all, I can't reach your level, but being below you is something to be proud of, isn't it?" Rowan looked up, the beard on his face had grown. No more, my hair has been washed with water and draped softly on the back of my head.
He picked up the fruit and took a bite. The fruit, softened by the high temperature of the volcanic cave, was soft and sweet, and the sweet juice filled his mouth. He then chewed hard twice.
After hearing what Rowan said, Aoun rarely refuted.
During this period of time, Rowan and Ornn did not get along very happily, because I don’t know whether it was because he had been withdrawn for too long, or because Ornn had this kind of personality. In short, from Rowan’s point of view, Ornn seemed to be born with it. It's like having an refutational personality.
Regardless of whether he is right or wrong, Aoun will always speak with a negative attitude first, and then defend himself. If Rowan says he has won, Aoun will directly ignore Rowan and start knocking the iron on his own.
And if he said he won, then he would say what happened to human beings.
It's not that Rowan couldn't understand. After all, judging from the story the designer gave Ornn, Ornn was the one who blamed himself the most for the disappearance of the Hearthlanders. He had a fight with Volibear because of this incident, and also because of this incident. He began to disappear and was not seen for thousands of years.
But just because you did something wrong, you don’t think everyone is wrong. Everyone makes mistakes!
Isn't it?
Because of this, Rowan is really helpless towards Ornn.
It’s not that I dislike old Orn.
But after getting along for a long time, Rowan would occasionally find Ornn really annoying.
"You are indeed worthy of pride. You are the most talented person I have ever seen. You are more talented than any human being I have ever met before." Aoun said angrily.
After hearing this, Rowan paused and asked with a smile: "Where is Bidolan?"
"He is similar to you. He loves this career more than you and works harder, but I have to say that his talent is not as good as yours." Aoun said. After finishing speaking, he looked at Rowan in surprise: "You Even Dolan knows? "
"I know a lot of things." Rowan rolled his eyes, ate the fruit three times, divided it into two, clapped his hands, summoned water, and Rowan began to wash his hands.
After washing up, Rowan stood up and looked at Aoun without hesitation: "Then I'm leaving. Thank you very much for this time, Aobu, teacher."
"Thank you for your guidance during this time."
Aoun sat there with his head lowered, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Don't worry, I won't ask you to accompany me to the heaven again. After all, you are right. You have things to do. I will not force you to participate in this battle." Rowan continued.
Old Orn raised his head and looked at Rowan.
"But if you can, I hope you can protect Rune Land from the intrusion of the stars. Teacher, you are the most powerful existence in Rune Land. You also live on this planet. If Rune Land disappears, then you Won’t everything you know and love disappear? I know that what happened in Luxiang hurt you a lot. You blame yourself for not protecting them well. You and they are both teachers and friends, and we are each other’s master and disciple. .
You know there are still people from Luxiang who have survived, but you don’t dare to appear in front of them. I can probably understand the reasons why you don’t dare to appear in front of them. It’s self-blame, anger, complaint, worry, whatever. Your emotions drive you to escape, but Orn, the people of Furnace always believe in you. "
"It's unavoidable. Just like you persuaded me to stay here, to forge with you and practice craftsmanship. I admit that I have begun to like this craft, but there are too many people waiting for me to go back. I can't help it. Stay here." Rowan stretched his body, feeling full of strength.
[Craftsman] This skill gives Rowan not only powerful passive gains and forging skills, but also powerful body control capabilities.
Now, with Rowan's power-generating skills and the skills learned from Jax, Rowan can now deal critical damage with every sword strike.
That's right, every sword exerts 170% of its power.
This is a very abnormal thing. With the use of spiritual power and skills, Rowan's highest output damage can reach 500%. Now that Rowan encounters those protoss again, with Janna's assistance, Rowan is confident that he can do it Two against five.
He really put in a lot this year and got a lot stronger at the same time.
"."
Perhaps they were about to separate, but Aoun did not refute Rowan's words, but remained silent alone.
After a while, Rowan prepared everything, packed up his things, took the casting hammer Orn gave him and was about to leave, when Orn spoke.
"You're right, Rowan, I was indeed running away."
Rowan stopped.
Aoun did not look at Rowan's back, but stretched out his hand, looked down at his big hands, and said in a deep voice: "A being like me has the same lifespan as Runeterra, but because his lifespan is only less than a hundred years, Human beings have fallen into an emotional depression. I have been blaming myself for what happened to these little ants for I don’t know how long. I also know that this is stupid, but this is the fact. I am indeed sad because I failed to protect them and because they disappeared. I have never admitted it, but now, Rowan, I have to admit that because of them, I collapsed and I regret it.”
"Yes, I have also seen the descendants of Hearthland. There are still people from Hearthland alive today, although there are less than a hundred of them, but they are still spreading my story in various places in Freljord, still believing in me, praying every day, and practicing their craftsmanship. They are the best blacksmiths among humans in Freljord, but I dare not appear in front of them because I am worried that I will not be able to protect them like before."
"But I really don't know what I should do."
Ornn had a blank expression and a calm tone, but his words seemed very sad.
He said: "I shouldn't be involved with humans. They can't bear my every move. My breath and the small flames that I accidentally spit out will burn the mountains and destroy the earth. I can't get along with them."
"I fought with Volibear, but they were the ones who were shattered. The day Hearthland disappeared, the huge guilt made my internal organs burn, and I felt lonely for the first time."
As Ornn spoke, the expression on his face finally changed.
This creature, who was born at the beginning of Runeland, showed a feeling of loss and regret on his face, and his small eyes also contained grief.
Rowan turned around, looked at Ornn, and said seriously: "You don't need to be burdened by this kind of thing, Ornn, because this is all wishful thinking for us humans.
Their belief in you is their business, and has nothing to do with you. Even if you tell them that you don't need believers and drive them away, they will still believe in you."
"Maybe it's just as you said. When faced with difficulties, we humans will always subconsciously grab the things that can help us in front of us, whether they are illusory, realistic, or existing. We will do our best to grab it. And Ornn, you are the fire and warmth in the extreme cold to them."
"The destruction of the Hearth was not your intention. It was an accident."
Seeing that Ornn still didn't speak, Rowan thought for a while and asked: "Have you paid attention to them?"
"No." Ornn said.
"Well, let's go and see how they live today, how about that?"
"How? As soon as I show up, they will recognize me immediately, even if I become smaller."
"Well, this requires a helper to help." Rowan coughed, and then began to call a name in his heart, and said to Ornn: "But she is here, you can't drive her away."
"You want to let the witch come?" Ornn was immediately angry.
Rowan hurriedly said: "Ornn, Lissandra did deceive you and did a lot of bad things. She deserves it, but there are also secrets in it. I'm not saying this to ask you to forgive her, but don't we need her help now?"
"I can't call someone here, and then you put on a stinky face, right?"
"Humph." Ornn sat down again in a sullen mood.
Rowan breathed a sigh of relief, and then he began to call Lissandra.
"Well, Rowan, why did you suddenly come to me? Why, did you leave Ornn?"
Lissandra's voice sounded in Rowan's mind.
Entering his own spiritual world, Rowan saw Lissandra, with her hands elegantly placed in front of her lower abdomen, her head held high and wearing an ice-blue crown.
To be honest, Lissandra may be better than Soraka in forcibly entering other people's spiritual worlds, because her dream-entering ability is too buggy.
Soraka can only pull Rowan into her spiritual world when Rowan is asleep, but what about Lissandra?
She can forcefully break into other people's spiritual worlds at any time.
This is not the same concept at all!
"Not yet, I have something to ask you for help." Rowan stepped forward and said to Lissandra.
"Go on." Lissandra said to Rowan coldly.
"Come to Ornn's volcanic cave now. Ornn needs your help."
"Hmm?!" The cold voice raised its tone. Lissandra stood on Rowan's expression, and her movements were a bit large.
But she immediately calmed down and asked coldly: "Does Ornn need my help?"
"He will need my help? What a joke, he will kill me if I go over there."
"Will I hurt you? We are wearing the same pants now." Rowan looked at Lissandra and said.
But halfway through the words, Lissandra raised her hand.
"Who is wearing the same pants as you?"
"Oh, you are wearing a skirt."
"Hmm?"
"I was wrong, okay? Anyway, I won't hurt you, Lissandra, you should understand this very well. Ornn does need your help. He wants to see the current situation of the people in Hearthland, but he can't come out. After all, once he goes out, the temperature will rise, and it will be useless no matter how far away he is." Rowan said seriously.
Lissandra hesitated for a moment and said, "Are you sure Ornn won't attack me?"
"Yes."
"Okay, I'll go over now."
Two minutes later, with the temperature dropping sharply, Ornn blew his nose unhappily, and saw flames spurting out, the temperature rose again, and even became hotter.
"Ornn." Rowan looked at Ornn.
"I didn't do anything." Ornn said.
And Lissandra also appeared. She looked at Ornn and wanted to say something, but finally chose to remain silent.
"Okay, okay." Rowan clapped his hands.
Seeing the two facing him, Rowan continued: "Come on, Lissandra, you must know where the Hearthland people are, right?"
Lissandra stretched out her hand and saw a mirror appear. Then, she reached out and touched the ice mirror.
A screen appeared.
It was a small tribe, and it was night. Outside the tribe's big tent, scattered torches were hung with shields to prevent the cold wind and sudden snow from blowing out the torches.
At this moment, it seemed that it was not too late, and a group of children wearing thick and dirty woolen clothes were seen sitting together in front of a few adults.
"Mum, can we finally listen to the story?"
"Today, I will tell you some stories today." The old woman said.
She is the leader of this tribe. Although Freljord has changed a lot in recent years, it still maintains the tradition of the matriarchal clan.
"Ah! Is this the story of the immortal war god Volibear?" A child immediately shouted.
"Ugh, I don't want to hear the story about half-bear villains. They are so scary." A little girl said timidly.
"Mum, mom, I want to hear the story of the seal nun. Last time, my dad told me that he silently recited the seal nun's name on the glacial lake and prayed to the gods, and then he really didn't feel the cold anymore. Mum, seal Do nuns really exist?"
Mother smiled and nodded: "Of course they exist. Seal Sister, Volibear, Anivia, these great gods all exist."
"Sister, please tell us! You were unwilling to tell us things before, but now that we have grown up, can we listen?" The children became excited.
And Mum said: "Of course, I am telling stories specifically for you today."
"But before telling the story, the first story you want to hear and the first legendary and mythical figure you understand must be the gods that our clan believes in."
"What do we believe in?"
"Do you know why I didn't tell you before? Because you were too young at that time, but it is different now. You can distinguish right from wrong and have cognitive abilities. In fact, we are not the Ker tribe, but the furnace Country people.”
"Luxiang?"
"What is Furnace Township?"
"Luxiang. I heard Ada say that Luxiang is an ancient tribe!"
"Yes, we are from Furnace Country, and we believe in the great god forged by mountain fire, Aoun."
"So, before I tell you the legends of Seal Sister, Volibear, Anivia, Wild Wolf Bell, and Fire Serpent, the story you must listen to is the story of the first born gods."
Mumu said seriously.
"."
In the Flame Cave, Ornn stood in front of Rowan and Lissandra, staring at the ice mirror with great seriousness.
Seeing Ornn like this, Lissandra stroked her forehead and said with some confusion, as if talking to herself: "I still can't understand that a powerful Ornn, a primitive god, would surrender to a group of humans. Fallen."
Lissandra is also human, and because of this, she can't understand Ornn even more.
Aoun and humans are two different species. He should be a great god who is above us, but...
Anyway, the three original gods of Freljord are all very strange!
Anivia loves humans deeply and protects them with her life.
Volibear is warlike and eager to achieve success, and cannot bear the thought of humans forgetting him.
Ornn was alone and silent, but blamed himself for the disappearance of Hearth.
These three gods are really strange!
Rowan said with a smile, "There are many things you don't know."
"By the way, Lissandra, in the future, if I want to go to heaven, will you come and help me?"
Lissandra did not hesitate and replied quickly: "Aren't you talking nonsense? If you don't deal with the protoss first, how can you talk about dealing with the void?"
"If you can't even deal with the star spirits, then let alone the void."
"But how do you plan to ascend to the heaven? The only passage in my mind has been sealed by Sister Avarosa."
"Of course I have a way."
"Okay, just call me when the time comes." Lissandra said solemnly.
Rowan nodded.
OK, Lissandra solved it.
When the time comes, ask Lissandra to sign and count the number of demigods who are willing to go to heaven!
Anyway, Rowan thinks there will be no shortage of them.
Like Azir, he will definitely be willing.
So. Prepare the lists of Azirnasus and Renekton in advance?
Rowan lowered his head and laughed.
He felt more and more crazy.
This is reaching heaven.
