Chapter 170 Brothers and Sisters Become Sisters, Dragon Girl and Mage
At night, in the council room of the Crown Guard family.
When Garen came to this familiar room, his expression was slightly stunned.
This time, there were not only his uncle and aunt in the council room, but also a slender figure with a hood sitting in the dark.
"She is."
From the other party's white and tender palm placed on a book, Garen could judge that this was a young lady.
And there seemed to be a shadow of Laxana.
"Because your performance today is enough to make you qualified to know some family secrets." Tiana paused, "She is a member of the clan responsible for the dark side of the Crown Guard family. According to seniority."
She hesitated for a moment, but still replied: "She is of the same generation as you."
"Hello, sister!" Garen asked politely, "Self-discipline and strength!"
He laughed at himself in his heart, no wonder the other party looked very similar to Laxana, and even mistakenly thought that the other party was his sister.
Now think about it, the women of the Crown Guard family have similarities in both figure and temperament, and it is normal that the other party looks very similar to Laxana.
He had guessed that there was such a person in the family before.
There must always be someone to carry the burden for the family. It will be him in the future, and before him, it should be the hidden sister in front of him.
Because of his philosophy and the justice he upholds in his heart, he doesn't like what he is doing now, and he instinctively hates the other party who does such things.
But he must also admit that everyone is for the better continuation of the Crown Guard. This often makes him fall into self-contradiction, and his mind is suffering.
"Clan sister?"
Under the black hood, it was Laxana, and her expression at the moment was slightly complicated.
This was the first time she heard Garen greet her in a restrained tone, and he usually said it with love and tenderness.
However, compared with the previous sister-like care, this experience of being called sister by her own brother made her feel strange and exciting.
She said in a hoarse voice:
"Diligent and strong! Brother Garen."
The family motto of the Crown Guard, the rules that every family member will abide by.
After a few greetings, Tiana took the lead in getting to the point:
"Garen, tell me about your discovery today."
Garen was a little hesitant. It was the first time that Laxana saw her brother showing such a struggling expression, and she couldn't help but be more curious about what happened next.
Finally, facing the gazes from three relatives, Garen still told his experience:
"At night, Jarvan came out of the Dawn Castle. We drank and sparred as usual."
"Is he suspicious?" Tiana interrupted and asked.
She could see that Garen was struggling in his heart, and didn't want the other party to say too much, and the change should be moderate.
Now that Laxana can stand up, their expectation for Garen is just that he should not drag Laxana down because of his obsession and perseverance.
"This" Garen hesitated for a while, his face a little painful, "Yes!"
Hearing this, Laxana and the other two looked at each other, and their expressions became slightly solemn.
Laxana's eyes even had a hint of sadness. The three of them grew up together, and his brother knew Jarvan best. If he said yes, then
Garen looked serious and told his discovery:
"During our battle, Jarvan's skills became a lot less skilled, as if he hadn't practiced for a long time, which doesn't fit his temperament. And there's something weird about his moves, as if he was hiding something. He wasn't like this before."
"Secondly." Garen paused and said hesitantly, "I feel that there are other powers in him. Whenever I get close to him, the things my uncle gave me will move."
"That's the tool we use to detect mages, forged from forbidden magic stone. But it has a big flaw, it can only detect new mages. It's not so effective for those mages who can fully control their own magic." Eldred added.
"If Jarvan is the Black Rose, will there be any unstable power?" Tiana looked solemn and turned her eyes to Laxana.
The other people present were all blind to magic, and Eldred only knew some knowledge of low-level mages.
More questions had to be asked from Laxana, a mage. Tiana knew that her niece was not weak, and even hid a lot of things behind her back.
Laxana hesitated for a moment, and her eyes hidden in the hood subconsciously glanced at the ordinary books on the table, her hands still gently covering the books.
Suddenly, her face shook slightly, and she blurted out in a hoarse voice:
"There will be, any release of magic has clues, and the Black Rose also needs time to eliminate this kind of fluctuation that cannot be covered. The fluctuation is very slight, but it is enough for the forbidden magic stone to detect. We can secretly investigate Jarvan's journey. He should have been alone for a while."
Hearing this professional analysis, everyone couldn't help but look sideways.
"I will check." Eldred took the lead.
In terms of investigation, the magic searcher corps under his command is very professional.
"Everything must be done in secret." Tiana reminded.
"You can ask the soldiers of the Light Shield. I remember that some of my brothers are among them." Laxana added.
Listening to the stories of the three people in front of him, Garen felt a little uncomfortable and clenched his fists tightly.
He hated this kind of suspicion, just like when he recently investigated General Laurent.
Obviously, everything the old general did was similar to usual, but in the eyes of the eight officials and Jarvan III, there were doubts everywhere.
He didn't want to continue this topic, so he said bluntly:
"What should I do now? If I can confirm that Jarvan has turned into a black rose, I will kill him immediately!"
Garen didn't know if it was still his brother. If not, he didn't want the murderer to pretend to be his brother and get away with it.
"You have no evidence, and we can't do it even if we have evidence."
Laxana shook her head. After experiencing some things, she became more rational:
"Dealing in secret will only intensify the conflict between us and the Light Shield Family. If it is exposed, Demacia can't withstand such a change."
Bang!
Garen's angry fists slammed on the table, his eyes were about to spit fire:
"Are we just going to do nothing?"
"Be patient, Garen. How can we trust you to hand over the Crown Guard with your appearance?" Tiana said lightly.
"But"
Garen wanted to argue, but a trace of pity flashed in Laxana's eyes, so she changed the subject and said:
"General Jarvan and General Laurent need to be observed, so we should not make a conclusion so early, and wait for the result first. The most urgent thing is about the Winged Protector."
Tiana understood Laxana's thoughts, and rubbed her temples pretending to have a headache, with helplessness on her face:
"No one knows whether she has come back or not, and we can't let you take risks."
This matter is another major event for the Crown Guard at the moment.
As long as Kyle doesn't show up, they dare not act in the name of the other party.
The other party can't stand their dirty behavior the most, and they will surely face a just trial at that time.
Tiana is very conflicted. If she doesn't do it now, Laxana's identity will always be a problem, and there may be big problems at any time.
Those nobles who have handles are easy to say, but the matter of Jarvan and General Laurent made her feel that the relationship between the Crown Guard and the Light Shield will deteriorate in the future.
She had to be on guard, because Laxana was the next heir of the Crown Guard.
Even if Demacia is defeated in the end, with the consistent style of Noxus, Laxana is enough to rely on strength to lead the family.
It is enough for the older generation of Demacia to be buried alive.
Laxana's white hands stroked the book, and the expression on her face changed from confusion to shock, and finally became firm again. All of this was hidden under her hood, and no one else saw it.
Finally, she took a deep breath and said:
"I will go to the Temple of Justice tomorrow."
"No!" Tiana directly objected, "It's too dangerous for you to go there."
"I have a legitimate reason to go in and out of there. If the Winged Protector really wants to kill me, I have to be prepared to break up with Demacia completely." Laxana's tone was resolute.
Hearing this, even Garen couldn't help but cast a respectful look.
Among the next generation of the Crown Guard family, he has never seen anyone else with such an aura as his sister.
The other party was worthy of being the person in charge of the dark side of the Crown Guard, and he did not want to show weakness, so he said firmly:
"I can go with you!"
"You can't go!" Laxana and Tiana said at the same time.
"Why?" Garen frowned slightly, "I will definitely protect the safety of my sister."
He was confident that there were no more than one person in the entire Xiong who could defeat him.
"You two are the two most outstanding people in the next generation, and the family can't let you take risks at the same time." Tiana said seriously.
Sometimes, she was really helpless with Garen. If there was no Laxana, she would have accepted it and could only train him slowly.
But now it's better, Garen's weaknesses are particularly prominent in comparison.
Garen is really not suitable for getting involved in these things. Once he said it, she couldn't refuse Laxana's request.
As expected, Laxana took advantage of the situation and said:
"Now we must understand the movements of the Winged Protector. No one is more suitable than me. Brother Garen, I feel relieved that you stay at home."
Tiana frowned slightly and moved her eyes to Laxana, as if looking into the eyes in her hood.
The two of them did not give in to each other and stared at each other for a long time.
Finally, Tiana backed down and sighed helplessly:
"Okay, your opinion is the main thing in this matter. Just tell us if you need our help."
"Sister, I am willing to protect your safety at any time!" Garen said seriously.
He roughly knew the danger of this matter and its importance to the family, but he also knew that he would not see anything if he went there, so he had to make his own promise.
When they really met, he found that there were too many excellent people in the Crown Guard family.
In order to protect his sister, he must perform better!
"No, I will be alone tomorrow."
Laxana picked up the seemingly ordinary book on the table and clenched her hands slightly.
The few of them chatted for a while and ended the Crown Guard's night talk today. It was a meaningful conversation for all the participants.
Garen felt that he was one step closer to his goal, while Laxana had an official identity to enter the family stage, and Tiana was only filled with joy to see the two next-generation talents join hands.
The border of Noxus.
After Darius and his army ran into Jarvan, he led the Trifari Warband to the north.
The order they received was to garrison in the far north Freljord, which was also the place he was most familiar with.
"Roar!"
Darius pulled the reins hard, causing the tiger to stop. He looked ahead, frowning slightly:
"Jayden, go and detect."
"Yes!"
A soldier beside him rode the tiger forward.
At this moment, in the middle of the road where the army was moving forward, a seriously injured girl fell.
The seriously injured girl was not surprising to him, but the dozens of arrows stuck in her body made him pay attention.
Judging from the other bloody arrows scattered on the ground, they were arrows used by the Demacia army.
After a while, Jetton, who had finished the detection, came back and bowed to report:
"General, she is still alive."
"Interesting, heal her wounds. Take her with you and we will continue to move forward." Darius' eyes showed a hint of interest.
"Yes!"
No mistake, one sentence, one content, one content, one book, one bar!
After several people came forward and carefully treated the girl's wounds, the army set out again and headed towards the north.
At night, in a tent of the Trifari War Group, the girl suddenly opened her eyes, with fear flashing in her eyes.
"You are awake, and your physical fitness is good."
Hearing the deep voice coming from the side, the girl endured the severe pain in her body and turned her neck with difficulty to look.
A general in black armor sat there, majestic and tall.
"Who are you?"
Her voice was a little hoarse. She was lucky to wake up after being hit by dozens of arrows. She could still feel the pain in her body.
"Noxus, Darius."
Darius grinned.
He was still alive after being hit by dozens of arrows. His body recovered at an amazing speed. He could wake up that night after being seriously injured.
Such a talent deserves his attention.
"I have heard of your name."
The girl took a breath every time she said a word, but she could not hide her awe in her eyes.
Darius, a name that made Demacia children stop crying.
"What about you? You can still live here after being hit by dozens of arrows in Demacia. You are quite strong." Darius asked with interest.
"I am Shyvana." The girl gave her name without hesitation.
She didn't know whether the other party had seen her true body, nor did she know how Noxus would view her.
"I can see hatred in your eyes. Are you interested in telling me your story?"
Darius sat on the stool carelessly and handed over a glass of water.
"Thank you."
Shyvana took the cup tremblingly, held it to her mouth and took a sip.
Darius did not do anything during this process, just watched quietly.
After moistening her throat and body, Shyvana seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, but her heart was still full of hesitation.
She didn't know whether she should tell the truth. Facing her benefactor, she really didn't want to hide it.
But she had also seen too many cold eyes and didn't want to
"I"
Before she could think about it, a soldier walked into the tent, knelt on one knee and said:
"General!"
In front of Darius, he glanced at Shyvana obscurely.
Darius waved his hand and said directly:
"Wedlin, don't worry."
"Yes!" The soldier's face was solemn, "According to the intelligence from the front line, the village of Ster in Nokmurchi was burned by the dragon's flames a few days ago. Jarvan and Light Shield used arrows to repel the dragon. In addition."
The soldier subconsciously glanced at Shyvana, and said honestly:
"Along the way, some people also saw the dragon flying towards Noxus. The Immortal Bastion asked us to search for the whereabouts of the dragon."
"I am the dragon you are looking for. Do you want to kill me?" Shyvana suddenly spoke.
Her voice was still hoarse, but her condition was much better than before. Shyvana looked at the two people in front of her with a relieved and relieved look.
In the end, she decided to tell the truth.
Although she would definitely die if the other party attacked her now. But they saved her, and she didn't want to hide it.
Darius waved away the soldiers and turned his eyes to Shyvana:
"You are very honest. Then."
His voice paused, which made Shyvana's heart lift.
"Join us, Shyvana!"
Hearing this, Shyvana was slightly stunned:
"Why!?"
She was obviously a murderous demon in the eyes of these people.
Could it be that the rumors about Noxus were true that they were all a group of cruel people?
Thinking of this, she was a little resistant.
Unexpectedly, Darius laughed and stretched out his hand to her:
"I see hatred in your eyes, and I see the unwillingness to accept your own strength. You and Noxus are a good match, Shyvana!"
Hearing Darius's laughter, Shyvana's heart was slightly shaken.
She was silent for a long time, and then she said:
"General, would you like to hear a story?"
"I am very happy."
When Darius heard this title, the smile on his face became even stronger. He sat patiently in his seat, waiting for Shyvana to tell the story.
"More than a decade ago, a wizard took a risk and entered the dragon's nest for money. After much hardship, he finally brought out a dragon egg from it."
"When he wanted to sell the dragon egg, the dragon egg hatched. Inside was not a little dragon, but a human-shaped baby girl."
"When the wizard saw the baby girl, he changed his mind and took her in."
Speaking of this, Shyvana's eyes were tender:
"The wizard began to raise the baby girl, gave her the best food since she was a child, taught her to read, teach her to be a person, and teach her how to get along with humans. The baby girl also grew up to be a girl."
"The good times didn't last long, because the girl couldn't control her power from the dragon clan, and often turned into a half-dragon, half-human form. For the girl's safety, the wizard had to move to another place after a while."
"Although they had no fixed place to live, each place had different fun, and they lived very happily."
"But unfortunately, there is a wonderful induction between the blood of the dragon. Finally, the girl's real mother is here."
"Her mother does not come with goodwill, but wants to kill the girl and mage. Just because the girl has defiled her blood."
"The strength of the dragon is difficult to narrate in words."
Hivana was sad, blinked, raised her head lightly, and silent for a while, then slowly narrated:
"Just a breath, the village where the two were located burned a fire. The mage locked the girl underground and not let her go out, and he went to face the dragon alone."
"The dragon recognized him, the power gap was disparate, and the mage was dead."
Hivana is very difficult, and the hatred in the eyes is almost desired:
"The dragon seems to enjoy the pleasure of torturing the prey. He did not kill the girl, but left."
"The dragon didn't know at all. If the girl was not killed, she would avenge her one day sooner or later!"
"After the dragon left, the girl broke through the basement angrily, and wanted to take the mage's body away."
"The girl met the elite of Demasia, a team of silver armored knights."
The story of Hivana stopped here.
Regarding the follow -up of this story, whether it is her or Dleeus, she is extremely clear in her heart.
The girl lost to Demasia, and fled, and even the mage's body was not taken away.
"Wadelin!"
Dleeus shouted loudly.
"General!"
There was just a soldier who had just been drinking outside the camp.
"The news returned the news back to the immortal fortress, and it was said that a mage in our army disappeared in Nox Mimi."
"Yes!" The soldiers said loudly.
Delier frowned for a second and added:
"If Demasia and immortal fortress asked, we said that we don't want to destroy peace, but we must see people die and see the corpse."
"yes!"
The soldiers received the command and left at a very fast speed.
"General Hivana is willing to be your guard and will always play for you."
Hivana's voice was slightly hoarse, trembling and trying to get up and thanks.
The corner of Drace's mouth evoked a smile, and he knocked it in the bed tough:
"I don't need to guard, use your strength to play for the empire, the empire needs you."
After that, he left the camp without returning.
"Empire?"
Shivana looked at his back, and she was grateful in her eyes.
