Chapter 61 Danger From the Depths of the Desert

Uzeris - the main store of the Glorious Merchants.

During this period, the Glorious Merchants have opened two new branches in Uzeris. This situation can happen, of course, because when the people in a place have no economic source, and then suddenly there is a merchant group backed by a powerful country and with materials urgently needed by the locals, then all the people in the place will naturally work for this merchant group.

A bit like a multinational business giant?

At present, the sky of Uzeris has become the appearance of the Glorious Merchants, but from the beginning, Rowan really didn't intend to do so.

It can only be said that he underestimated the potential value of Shurima and the current situation of the locals.

Most people in Shurima don't have the word patriotism in their hearts. The country is in chaos and wars are frequent. Many cities on the coast have changed their surnames to Noxus, or have established themselves as city-states.

Therefore, when they are hungry, the Shurimans really don't care whether they are named Shurima or Dema.

Just like now, the locals have quickly accepted their identity changes.

Of course, there are still some old people who are telling the glorious history of Shurima. Unlike young people, they have their own beliefs in their hearts.

Prilofen is obviously not the kind of person with faith. At this moment, he entered the main store of the Glorious Merchants, took out a bag of gold coins and some antiques with a smile, put them on the table and said loudly: "I want two boxes of water, Miss Sivir."

"Don't call me Miss."

"Okay, then, Sivir, um, Madam?" Prilofen quickly changed his words.

He was one of the first Uzeris people to participate in the work of the Glorious Merchants, and he was also the first to discover business opportunities and become a cooperative merchant of the Glorious Merchants. At present, Prilofen's job is to take the materials purchased from the Glorious Merchants to other cities, then trade new materials, and bring them back to exchange for more materials from the Glorious Merchants.

The water resources of the Glorious Merchants are endless, and so are the foods. Prilofen made a lot of difference because of this. A bottle of water bought with three gold coins can be sold for more than ten gold coins when it is brought to the depths of Shurima.

Although the journey is dangerous and long, it is normal for businessmen to take risks for profit.

After listening to Prilofen's words, Sivir sighed. She walked into the storage room in her glowing work clothes and easily moved two boxes of water out and put them on the table. She looked at Prilofen and said seriously: "I hope you can bring back the bottles next time. For them, bottles are more valuable than water. Do you understand?"

"Bottles are not easy to recycle. It's hard to find someone after selling them, but I will try next time." Prilofen is still very afraid of this killer in front of her.

The more she is out, the more she knows how dangerous this lady named Sivir is.

The Shurimans who died in her hands, at least more than a hundred, she is a real killer!

Rolling her eyes, Sivir waved her hand, indicating that Prilofen could take the water away.

After Prilofen left, Sivir sat at the counter, supporting her chin with one hand, her eyes full of confusion. She was really confused and helpless about her current life. Was her choice at that time really right?

To be honest, I always feel that it is very wrong!

How come I, a top-level bloodthirsty and capable mercenary, am now doing the job of carrying goods and watching the store?

I have said that I am very capable! I can find treasure for him, but why doesn't he believe it?

Sivir became more and more angry as she thought about it.

Until Rowan came to take over, she immediately changed her face and smiled at Rowan.

"It's time to change shifts, it's your rest time." Rowan, who had finished practicing magic in the room, came out and said to Sivir.

After Lux's guidance, Rowan's understanding of magic became deeper and deeper. Magic is not just about skill levels, but also requires continuous development and mastery. For example, now Rowan can use magic to make small ice cubes.

But compared to Lux's ability to create icebergs, his small ice cubes are still very useful for freezing wine and juice.

"Okay, boss." Sivir said respectfully.

Yes, her attitude changed very quickly, but after seeing Rowan's strength, it was normal for her to change her attitude!

She was arrogant, but at the same time she also knew how to survive!

She had bowed her head to others before, either to her employer or to some elders and warlords. In order to survive, what's wrong with bowing her head?

Just two days ago, the mercenary team that Sivir was originally in came to the door. They rode into Uzeris on horseback. Dozens of them rode into Uzeris with weapons. The sense of oppression was very strong, but they were taken down in an instant!

Sivir originally thought that Lily was bragging. Fifty people who were as good as her could fight, so they could rule some towns, but what was the result? She really didn't lie

Should we say that the gap between mercenaries and real soldiers is really big?

Especially Rowan. Sivir only saw him raise his hand with the sword, and in a breath, a group of people a few meters away fell down, well, they were split in half.

Hey, hey, hey!

Is this magic? !

A few meters away, with a swing of the sword, more than a dozen people were cut in half!

If this is not magic, what is it?

As a result, Rowan said seriously that this was sword energy.

Haha

Sivir really didn't believe that swordsmanship could have such an effect!

But those Demacians believed it!

They still praised him foolishly, saying that he was getting stronger and stronger, and he really deserved to be the Black Lion of Demacia!

In short, Sivir was in awe of Rowan's strength, and at the same time, she was full of complaints about these people.

"By the way, boss, it's better not to let merchants go deep into Shurima during this period." Sivir took off her work clothes and drank the water beside her.

Although she felt confused about her future, she was still very satisfied that she could have free water and good food here.

"Why?" Rowan looked at Sivir and asked curiously.

"If you go out and listen to what people are saying outside, you will know why." Sivir whispered, and then she explained: "Because the creatures in the underground have come out again. Some warriors killed the underground creatures and brought them to the city for display, but these creatures are like cockroaches. If you find one, it means that there are probably hundreds or thousands of them coming out."

Rowen was stunned, and then his mouth twitched, "Underground creatures? Are they purple?"

"Don't you know this?"

"In short, Shurima has been restless recently, but we don't have to worry about it. Those strange creatures have their own range of activities and they won't come here." Sivir stretched and said, "What are we going to eat for dinner today?"

"Go ask Lux, she is responsible for dinner." Rowan said to Sivir.

Sivir said "tsk" and turned to walk into the inner room.

Rowan then walked out of the store and called a traveling merchant to ask him about the depths of Shurima.

Then, Rowan rubbed his cheek.

The void really began to stir.

But what is the reason?

Rowan touched his chin with some curiosity.

In fact, low-level void monsters are not very threatening. In Rowan's opinion, void worms and burrowing beasts are just a group of ferocious but brainless beasts. If the local warriors of Shurima can kill them, there is no reason why the soldiers of Demacia cannot defeat them.

But the problem is, as Sivir said, the terrifying thing about the void is not the combat power of the monsters. Excluding the boss-level ones like Kog'Gath, most of them are miscellaneous soldiers, and mantises are also powerful miscellaneous soldiers! The real threat is the problem of quantity.

When the endless worm tide attacks, like the sand sea rolling in, Demacia can't stop it. Unless you have the strength of a demigod, it is really too difficult to stop it!

So.

What is the reason for the danger in the depths of the desert?

Hiss. I should have paid more attention to the background story of the Alliance!

Rowan thought with a headache.

But fortunately, there is one thing Rowan knows, that is, in the short term, the void is impossible to flood over!

And in the future, someone will solve the void threat under Shurima.

Azir is not in a hurry, what is he in a hurry for!

The emperor is really not in a hurry, too... Anyway, he is not in a hurry!

However, some Demacians who are protecting merchants outside must be recalled.

Although Rowan has great confidence in their military power, they will definitely not be able to come back if they encounter a swarm of insects.

Rowan took a breath and squinted his eyes and began to take a nap.

Recently, life has become more and more comfortable.

At the same time, deep in Shurima.

"Thank you, if it weren't for you, our team would have been wiped out."

After taking a breath, Dodd put his hand on his chest and made a standard knight's salute.

In front of him was a woman who was wearing thick clothes and could not see her appearance clearly. She wrapped herself tightly, but Dodd, who had good eyesight, still clearly found that her clothes seemed to be moving?

But how could clothes move?

Dodd felt strange.

"Stay away from this place, don't come again in the future." She said, her voice was very nice.

"I'm sorry, I can't promise you this, because I'm a soldier, and it's my duty to obey orders." Dodd shook his head at her, then hesitated and said, "Also, you seem to be injured?"

As he said that, Dodd was about to step forward.

The other party shouted angrily: "Don't come over!"

"." Dodd stepped back awkwardly.

The other party seemed to notice that he had lost his composure, and his tone softened. He said, "I'm fine. I just need to rest. As for you, I'm sorry. I can't help you get your goods back."

"The void creatures will devour everything. Those goods are gone, so your loss"

"What does this have to do with you?" Dodd said doubtfully, "You saved our lives. Do I have to ask you to compensate for our goods? That's not something a human can do."

The other party was stunned, and then she said softly, "Yes, you're right."

"Let's separate here. I have something else to do."

"Well, if you need anything, you can come to me. I will try my best to help you. We are living in Uzeris now. If you go to Uzeris, just report the name of the Glowing Merchants Group and someone will take you to find our boss." Dodd said seriously.

"Although you are very strong, I still have to say that this is not a place where a woman should stay."

After Dodd finished speaking, he called out, and the people of the merchant group took steps and headed north.

This time, Dodd saw a "monster".

Purple, with human knee-high, twisted and horrible creatures, and a woman who could release light bomb explosions and fly in the air.

Dodd knew it was magic. As a Demacian, he should reject magic and hate this woman.

But she saved his life.

Demacians cannot betray their benefactors, so even if communicating with her would violate his beliefs, Dodd still followed his heart.

If he violated Demacia's magic-banning rules, he might no longer be a pure Demacian.

But if he betrayed the person who saved his life, then he could no longer be called a human being.

"See you again, um, can I know your name?"

Taking a deep breath, Dodd suddenly looked at the lonely back in the distance and shouted.

The figure paused, as if he was hesitating.

Then, Dodd heard her voice.

"Kassa."

——————

This chapter says, you must read it!

Regarding this chapter, I made a very bold adaptation, because according to the original background timeline, in 984, Kai'Sa had not yet merged with the void, and it was two or three years later that Kai'Sa became a half-void existence.

The reason why I made such a change is still the same sentence, in order to make the timeline of the story look more complete to everyone, so that everyone can better combine the heroes when reading the story.

After all, if you let Riot do it, can Riot dare to say that it can integrate the heroes of various regions? Riot really can't do it, so it will continue to eat books, rewrite the background stories and settings of heroes.

Why is this so? That's because the settings and stories of heroes are created by different people, and more than a hundred characters are written by dozens of people with different personalities and ideas, so it is inevitable that there will be deviations.

So if it is written according to the original timeline, many contents will become difficult to write, so I will simply take Riot's major events as the basis and the big settings as the background, and then I will take out the characters and integrate them in.

There are both disadvantages and advantages to doing this.

The downside is that it lacks the original official setting, and readers who are familiar with the background setting may feel that there is a deviation, but I guarantee that the characters of the heroes who appear are written according to the original setting.

The upside is that this way of writing the story can be smoother, allowing me to write more "original content".

Well, everyone can also express their own ideas.
