Chapter 545 Atreus's Choice
Just when Shurima confirmed the ascension ceremony, the war with the Protoss was also announced to be suspended for a short time.
The Protoss was frightened by Noxus and would not even leave the gate of heaven for a short time, let alone fight with Shurima.
The only one left, Atreus, found Noxus again through the bracelet.
Atreus's face was slightly gloomy when he came to the Trifarian Council Hall in the void again.
This time, there were not only the familiar Orianna and Ryan, but also many figures he didn't know.
Some seats were covered by gray fog, and there were obviously some councilors who didn't want to reveal their identities.
"Atreus, it's an honor to meet you all!"
Atreus looked around without fear, he was sure that everyone here had the strength to defeat him.
But here, he no longer represented himself, but also the entire Rakkor tribe.
"Mr. Atreus, I'm glad that you contacted the Empire again. What do you think of the Empire's proposal?"
Orianna looked at Atreus with a smile and took the initiative to ask.
When she was communicating with Atreus, the others also withdrew their gazes. Pheromones were transmitted among the others, and Atreus could not hear anything.
Obviously, these people were discussing matters here, and Atreus's arrival was just a coincidence.
Atreus withdrew his gaze and looked at Oriana solemnly:
"I have no right to refuse the land and power you promised. But I want to know, where will the Rakkor tribe eventually migrate to?"
After the Protoss retreated, Atreus obviously had no intention of living and dying with them.
Instead, he took advantage of this opportunity to transfer the tribe in time, which was the most important thing in his opinion.
Because of the previous war, he had a very high reputation in the Rakkor tribe.
This reputation was enough to lead the current Rakkor tribe and let them choose to give up Mount Targon.
"There are many places, you can choose."
Oriana smiled and stretched out her hand to push gently, and the map of Runeland slowly opened in front of Atreus.
The central Valoran continent, the southern Shurima continent, the eastern Ionia continent, and countless islands around the continents together make up the magnificence of Runeland.
Watching Atreus staring at the map in a daze, Oriana tapped her finger and said:
"If you are willing to accept the protection of the Empire, there is a newly developed land around the Immortal Bastion, which is very short of population."
As Oriana spoke, a dot lit up in the center of the Valoran continent.
This is the location of the new city around the Immortal Bastion. The Empire welcomes anyone to become a Noxian.
Atreus shook his head and rejected the idea without thinking.
Although the Rakkor tribe adheres to tradition, even he does not have the confidence not to be assimilated by Noxus.
In the end, the Rakkor tribe may no longer be a simple Rakkor tribe, but the Rakkor people of Noxus.
"If you are willing to sail the sea, Bilgewater is a good choice."
"If you are willing to accept nature, Ionia can be an option."
"If."
Orianna didn't care. As she spoke, the dots on the map lit up one by one.
As long as the Empire's power reaches, it can give Rakkor a place of its own.
This preferential treatment is naturally not because of Rakkor. Even though everyone in the Rakkor tribe is a warrior, there are many strong people, and there are even forces like the Sun Cult, it is not worth it for Noxus to do so.
The Empire is willing to give this preferential treatment, just because it is optimistic about Atreus's potential.
Although the future Runeland Agent appointed by the Protoss has grown crooked, even the Empire recognizes the other party's future potential.
"I choose here! I don't think the Empire will mind!"
Faced with so many lights, Atreus completely ignored them and clicked on the Shurima continent.
Seeing the place Atreus pointed, Orianna was rarely surprised.
It wasn't that he pointed out places like Nerimaj that were not selectable, but Atreus's idea made Oriana a little confused.
"Are you sure you understand what you have to bear if you choose there?"
Oriana looked at Atreus deeply and asked seriously.
The place Atreus pointed to was exactly the southeast corner of Shurima, where Icathia was located.
It was a forbidden place full of void creatures, which was common knowledge known to all demigods in Runeland.
"I'm sure there are no cowards in Rakkor!" Atreus said seriously.
He understood more than anyone else.
Moreover, this was the consensus after he and other people in Rakkor discussed it.
No mistake, one post, one content, one book, one forum, one 6, one 9, one book, one forum!
Rakkor would not accept unconditional goodwill. Instead of owing favors to Noxus, it would be better to defend Icathia for the other party.
Even if Rakkor was destroyed by the Void, they died to defend Runeterra, not in the meaningless war between the Protoss and Shurima.
Oriana narrowed her eyes slightly. Through the analysis of the big database, she also understood Atreus's thoughts.
For Atreus's thoughts, she raised a faint smile:
"The Empire is willing to respect your decision. But at the same time, there is one thing Mr. Atreus needs to know. The Empire has always had 2-4 demigods stationed in Icathia."
"The Rakkor tribe is willing to wait for the orders of those demigods." Atreus said in a serious tone.
He believed that since Noxus was willing to give preferential treatment to the Rakkor tribe, it would not let Rakkor make a move to commit suicide.
In his view, the Protoss and Noxus were one in the tiger's mouth and the other in an unknown future.
At least, he was willing to give it a try.
Oriana smiled and nodded, "Three days later, the Empire's airship will go to the Rakkor tribe to pick you up."
"Three days? That's enough time." Atreus said.
The subsequent communication between the two went smoothly, and all the details were soon finalized.
Not long after, Atreus looked satisfied, and his figure slowly faded in the void.
"I really look forward to seeing Leona's expression in Icathia."
After Atreus left, Morgana in the black fog dissipated the cover, with a smile on her face.
Although the councilors were discussing the follow-up arrangements, they also heard the communication between Atreus and Oriana.
"At least they will accept the Empire more sincerely when they go to Icathia." Camille said lightly.
"It doesn't matter whether they go or not. Leona will know sooner or later, and they will be under Leona's command sooner or later." Ryan said calmly.
From the beginning, Lakkor and Atreus were bound to join Noxus.
It's just that Atreus's choice is more admirable.
At least the person chosen by this Protoss has qualities that Protoss can hardly reach.
"For Your Majesty, you should be more optimistic about the other one." Morgana teased.
"Not bad."
Ryan smiled lightly and looked directly at the mountainside west of Mount Targon on the map.
For him, there is a Protoss who is more worthy of his expectations.
It's a pity that the fire this time is not enough to affect that person.
