Chapter 167: Katarina's Choice

‘Family, Kingdom. ‘

Four words appeared on the pages.

Seeing this, Lakshana was silent.

She didn't really understand.

But seeing the four words in the magic book, I have to admit it in my heart

The Crown Guard is not different from other families.

‘What do you think of this incident? ‘

Seeing the text that appeared again on the pages, Lakansana thought about it, and slowly wrote on the magic pages:

‘I think this time I was expected to be at Knocks, and everything was done by them. ‘

‘It is true to sign a peace treaty, and it’ s true to put back to the flying wing to protect God. It just turned the battle on the bright side to the dark. ‘

Lakshana's thoughts emerged like spring water, and wrote a lot of dysentery:

‘Demasia is more afraid of such fighting than Noxas’ s aggression. For hundreds of years, we have gathered here because of pursuit of the most justice. But now '

‘Noxus is constantly disintegrating these, causing suspicion between the Demasian people, and making the nobles arguing with each other because of a small profit. ‘

‘.’

She took a breath and wrote down what she wanted.

But unfortunately, no matter what she thinks, even if most of the Demasian people understand, the results are destined to not change.

Demasia can not solve the most fundamental problem at all. Most Demasians know that they know their eyes and vision inside.

‘What do you think can break the game now? ‘

The magic book is like a mentor who tests student knowledge and raises a test.

Lakansana looked at shaking her head, with sadness on her face.

But in the end, she still wrote two words:

‘No solution! ‘

Seems to feel that this is not enough, she then added below:

‘I can understand their worries, because fundamentally, Demasia’ s defeat has become a foregone conclusion. ‘

‘Power. Demasia’ s strength is too weak. ‘

‘Our most powerful gods are defeated. Most people understand that once Noxus is raised, we are the lamb to be slaughtered. ‘

‘Demasia still has the courage to break the fish. However, with the signing of the Peace Treaty, this gas will become weaker and weaker. Coupled with the continuous provocation of Noxus, the entire Demasia will be destroyed a little. ‘

She was unbearable and sad on her face, but she knew that she couldn't change anything.

Since Kyle's defeat, Demasia's decline has been doomed.

Noxus is not a peaceful empire, they are born to aggressive. Everyone knows that they will not let go of the opportunity to occupy Demasia.

Now Dimcia is at all unable to resist the opponent's invasion. Even the power gap is too large.

Now that you can resist strong enemies at any time, just because everyone still has a sense of heart and is willing to die with the country.

When Noxus continues to provoke Demasia internal disputes, this gas will slowly dissipate.

At that time, Noxus will use several border privants to set typical examples to show the benefits after surrender. So many Demasian people will be unwilling.

Everyone has parents and children. No one is willing to fight a war that cannot win at the cost of life.

Lakanshana was frustrated. Perhaps the only thing she could do was to encourage everyone to try not to let Dimcia collapse from the inside.

At least the determination to let Demasia have been broken.

‘If you want to protect Demasia, there are two places you can go. ‘

Seeing this sentence, Lakansana wrote on his face and quickly wrote:

‘Which two places? ‘

‘Demasia dungeon and Galio giant. ’The text on the magic book emerges.

Is it magic?

Lakansana knows what these two places mean. One is to detain a lot of mage with high harm coefficients, and the other is the giant figure of Demasia symbolizing the war.

In the legend, the giant statue wakes up after absorbing massive magic, becoming the patron saint of Demasia.

The meaning of listening to magic books. This is true.

Lakanshan nodded seriously, and had a touch of hope in her eyes.

Noxus, floating castle.

"Good momentum."

Ryan held a roll of magic book and looked at Cartelina, who was drifting with long red hair.

Cartelina knees in front of her, as usual respect.

But unlike the former leather dress, at this time, she changed into a beautiful black and red -colored armor, like a high -ranking female general, and the whole person exuded a deterrent aura.

"Crown, my Carterlina Dukka led the Kca family and the southern theater to present you loyalty."

She was holding a magic seal with both hands, which was Koka's family law.

This French Constiture was given to Ryan with Du Kaa, and he was transferred to Cartelina by him.

After that, Cartelina went to the southern theater led by the Kkaa family to execute Cui Fali's order.

Ryan has always paid attention to Cartelina. Relying on her strength and Cui Feli background, she quickly established prestige on the South Line Army.

For several months, thanks to the previous Ryan's speech and the establishment of the Explorer Association

Wherever Carterlina's army goes, the city -states of Shuma Malaysia have surrendered, and they are established by Nox Tolla.

In a very short time, the black gate of Noxus became the iconic building of most of the city -states of Shima.

It is almost not much effort, and the large area of ​​Shurema's territory is included in the territory of the empire.

With these military exploits and Katarina's almost unrivaled strength on the battlefield, she challenged her father, Du Kekao, the commander of the southern line.

With her rapidly growing strength, she defeated her father and became the commander of the southern line in the presence of all Noxian soldiers.

This time, she returned to the Immortal Fortress, in addition to completing the task assigned by the Trifari Council, she also wanted to hand over the seal to Ryan to show her choice.

Ryan did not take the seal engraved with the seal of the Kekao family, but said lightly:

"Member Katarina, you and I are both Noxians."

Katrina trembled slightly when she heard the name. He knew very well that this was Ryan's recognition of her.

"Your Majesty, I will always be your sharpest blade."

Katrina lowered her head very low, with piety and respect on her face.

No matter what achievements she has made, it is thanks to Ryan's teachings.

If it weren't for Ryan, she would have died at the hands of her father a year ago.

She knew that man very well. If Ryan hadn't been there, she would have been abandoned by him, just like her poor sister.

"Don't be so serious. You're leaving tomorrow. Let me see your current strength today."

Ryan smiled and gently closed the book.

Katarina had been with him for a long time, and he knew her thoughts very well. After experiencing the war, she wanted to show herself in front of him.

The dark blue rune light flashed, and he and Katarina disappeared.

In an empty training ground under the floating castle, the figures of the two suddenly appeared.

Even under the floating castle, it was still illuminated by the light.

Swish!

A black and red figure flashed, and Katarina disappeared in an instant. When she appeared again, she had come behind Ryan and cut off the daggers in both hands without mercy.

She knew that no matter how she attacked, she couldn't hurt Ryan at all.

Ding!

Ryan's right hand was behind his back, and the ring instantly turned into a black blade, blocking Katarina's attack.

"Yes, it took time to prepare before, but now I have figured it out."

This is the trick he taught Katarina, Flash Step.

The trick originated from the classics of some ancient schools in Ionia, and it was born out of magic but different from magic. It is the only magic school he knows that can be performed without magical talent.

Its performance is varied, but most of them are related to swords, knives, and shadows.

"Your Majesty, this is not enough."

Katrina failed to hit, and appeared again dozens of meters away.

This time, she threw the dagger in her hand directly, and the scimitar-like dagger drew an arc in the air.

When it was about to approach Ryan, it suddenly split into thousands, and dozens of identical blades fell down.

Faced with this inevitable attack, Ryan's eyes flashed with admiration, and his body leaned back slightly, and the black blade in his hand swung out quickly.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Every collision between the dagger and the black blade would make a crisp sound, as if every dagger was real.

But regardless of whether it was real or fake, every dagger was accurately blocked by Ryan.

Most of the daggers disappeared after being cut off, and only one bounced to the left and back of Ryan.

Katarina appeared there instantly and slashed the dagger in her hand fiercely.

Ding!

When it was only an inch away from Ryan's neck, the dagger was blocked by the black blade.

"The attack did not reveal the killing intention, and it has grown a lot. The mastery of the sword division is good, and 13 swords can be divided at the same time. What about the others?"

Ryan still stood in the same place, and Katarina's fierce attack did not even make him move.

Based on the previous battle, he could already judge Katarina's current level.

More than the hero level, not yet the master level.

Whether it is physical fitness or skills, it is not inferior to Draven.

"Your Majesty, be careful!"

Katarina's face was slightly condensed, and the two daggers in her hands flew towards Ryan at the same time.

At the same time, she seemed to have endless daggers in her hands, and threw them at Ryan.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

The black blade dance was airtight, not giving the dagger any chance to get close.

But Katarina's attack was obviously not that simple. The dagger that was shot down this time did not dissipate, but turned and hit Ryan again.

After all, Ryan held the blade with one hand and could not resist the daggers coming from all directions at the same time.

No mistake, one sentence, one content, one 6, one book, one bar, one look!

Behind him, a dagger passed through the gap of the black blade dance and pierced his white robe.

Swish!

As soon as the dagger touched the surface of the robe, it seemed to be blocked by an invisible force and could not move forward.

"Not bad." Ryan smiled and nodded, "Even a fully armed hero-level may be defeated by your attack."

The dagger is just an ordinary dagger, but the quantity can completely make up for the qualitative defects.

Moreover, with Katarina's current physique, the force of the chop was so great that even Darius had to be slightly cautious.

In a short while, more and more daggers surrounded Ryan, but Katarina also showed a struggling expression.

But she did not give up. A large number of daggers almost drowned Ryan, and stabbed Ryan at every angle, with almost no dead angle.

Countless daggers hovered around Ryan, as if to cut him into pieces.

Carter stared at the scene in front of her, with a trace of unwillingness in her eyes. She knew very well.

Although her attack seemed swift, no dagger could hurt Ryan.

There is a layer of water film on the surface of Ryan's body, and no matter how her dagger attacks, it cannot penetrate.

"Do you know the difference between a hero and a master?" Ryan asked suddenly.

The moment he finished speaking, all the daggers exploded, and almost all of them turned into phantoms.

Ding! Ding!

Two metal landing sounds were heard, and the two daggers thrown before fell at Katarina's feet.

Katarina glanced at the position where Ryan still did not move, with a trace of loss in her eyes, which was quickly covered up by her while bending down to pick up the dagger.

She pursed her lips and shook her head: "Your Majesty, I don't know how strong the master is, but I know I'm not strong enough."

"The difference between a hero and a master is the difference between you and the master. It lies in the concentration of power." Ryan said calmly.

The power division in Runeland is relatively vague. As long as you can hit the destructive power of nearly 100 times Caitlin's power, you can be considered a master.

It can be achieved by natural physical fitness, without holy artifacts, by magic, or by learning some secret methods or force techniques.

For Katarina, there are not many paths to choose.

"The concentration of power?" Katarina was puzzled.

She knew that Ryan was guiding her future path, and she couldn't help but look serious.

"That is the advanced test dummy made by Orianna. Let's take the first-level spell-water blade as an example."

Ryan gestured to the dummy in the corner of the practice field. Two blue runes slowly took shape in front of him and merged into a water blade.

"Under normal conditions, spells will not even cause the dummy to react."

Swish!

The water blade hit the dummy's chest and suddenly splashed.

Under normal conditions, the power of the water blade is about three times the strength of Caitlin's full-strength swing. And this attack will not even cause the advanced dummy to judge the attack.

"Your physical talent is not as strong as Darius, and your magic talent is almost zero. Either accept the transformation or learn to condense your strength."

"And the so-called condensation of strength means that the physical condition or magic power remains unchanged, causing greater damage."

A new water blade appeared in front of Ryan again. This time the water blade is smaller, but the color is deeper.

Swish!

Ryan waved his hand gently, and the water blade quickly passed through the air and pierced the dummy fiercely.

But this attack made Katarina's eyes widen.

The seemingly small and weak water blade actually pierced through the armor made of rune steel directly, piercing a large gap.

"Attack strength: strong!"

Katrina heard the electronic sound coming at the right time and couldn't help but fall silent.

Test dummies are not only used in the War Academy, but also supplied on each front to facilitate soldiers to test their strength.

She has also tried the so-called advanced dummies.

Even if she tried her best, she could only get a "weak" rating.

And the "strong" was hit by Ryan's water blade.

"How to do it?" Katarina asked.

Ryan turned his eyes to her and said calmly:

"Mages rely on the understanding of runes, and warriors rely on the continuous strengthening of their physique. Assassins should learn how to use the sharp blade in their hands to cut everything."

"Cut everything."

Katarina frowned, not having any clue.

In that "Assassin's Creed", there was a technique of cutting steel with a wooden sword, but she had sneered at it before.

In her eyes before, assassins should focus on improving their own physique. If the attack is not enough, then change a better weapon.

Pursuing cutting steel with wood is meaningless.

But now what Ryan meant.

Looking at her self-doubting face, Ryan couldn't help but smile:

"This is the path that ordinary assassins want to pursue. You can choose a path that suits you better."

He didn't want to force Katarina. Even if she was willing to accept mechanical transformation, he would not stop her, but would only provide her with better materials.

"Your Majesty, I want a weapon that can penetrate all defenses!" Katarina's eyes revealed seriousness.

She didn't think she could learn to cut steel with wood and condense strength.

Compared with those who are gifted by nature, her talent is really weak.

So she can be more clear about her position, loyalty, bravery, and honing skills.

A pure assassin, just need to learn how to kill the enemy.

When her physical strength can't keep up, she will voluntarily accept all the transformations just to follow him.

"An unexpected idea." Ryan smiled slightly, "I now have two such weapons in my hand, corresponding to two tasks, are you interested?"

In Noxus, there is no such thing as getting something for nothing.

What's more, one of them is still very dangerous now, and he can't guarantee whether there will be any problems.

"Willing to serve!" Katarina knelt on one knee.

Even without a weapon, she will complete the task ordered by Ryan.

She didn't intend to ask for it. As long as Ryan is willing to provide information, she can rely on her own and her family's strength to obtain it.

"Remember the task assigned by the commander?" Ryan asked.

"Guard the Axam Tomb and kill anyone who dares to approach." Katarina's face was cold.

"The first task is to follow Ezreal into the tomb and bring back an item." Ryan said solemnly.

He and Syndra were basically sure that there was a world rune there.

But the restrictions there were too great, and even if he combined the power of Morgana and Syndra, he could not force his way in.

Once the hidden hand left by the Ascended God is triggered, the entire mausoleum and the surrounding large areas of land will turn into nothingness. He is not sure whether the world rune can be spared, and he is not willing to take risks.

With the strength of him and Syndra, it is enough to send Katarina and Ezreal into it. Their strength is just an ant in the eyes of the Ascended God, and they will not trigger the arrangement they left at all.

"What do I want to take back?" Katarina asked seriously.

Her expression and eyes told Ryan that even if she died in it, she would bring the item back for him.

Ryan waved his hand lightly, and a five-color phantom appeared in the air:

"I am not sure what it looks like, but it will be one of the five colors of yellow, red, green, blue, and cyan. You can feel the power of magic when you get close to it."

"If you encounter an accident or see it, crush this."

As Ryan spoke, he handed a necklace to Katarina, on which hung a dark blue gem.

Through the translucent surface of the gem, Katarina could clearly see that there were many complex inscriptions engraved on it.

"I will take it back!"

Caterina took the necklace solemnly and hung it carefully around her snow-white neck.

She will not fail again!
