Runeterra is so much fun!

76 Chapter 74
Hearing the news about the Darkborn, Qiyana's eyes couldn't help but twitch.

For Qiyana...or for that matter, to the scholars of Ixtar, the darkin are not a mystical legend.

In the library of the royal family, the rise of the Ascended more than 3000 years ago, and the riots in Icacia [-] years ago are recorded.In this case, although the Darkin War was before the classical era, it was only a thousand years ago.

Not only the records in the books, even in some well-preserved record crystals, you can see the terrifying scene of the dark descendants fighting each other.

Mountains collapse, rivers flow backwards...

And now...

Thinking about it, even Qiyana couldn't help complaining: "Why do I feel that you are a little too dangerous?"

"What's wrong?" Yuan Chen looked at Qiyana suspiciously.

In this regard, Qiyana folded her arms and said with a look of guard:

"When you first came to Ixtar, you dared to try to hunt dragons. And now, less than two days after leaving Ixaocan, you have found a darkin crystal, a rune war era The remnant soul of the ancient warlord. Now they are plotting another sealed darkin harp."

"If this is not considered dangerous, then the barbarians of Noxus are simply the guardians of peace in this world, and should be welcomed and cheered by all countries."

Noxus doesn't grab oil...

Uh, it's hard to say.The main reason is that the current industry has not yet risen, and it is impossible for Noxus to turn a blind eye when it rises.

Thinking about it, Yuan Chen was also happy, and then said relaxedly; "It's not bad according to this, but what can it do? Without me, someone will activate them as well. Instead of passively waiting for those accidents, it's better to take the initiative to master them." In my own hands."

"You are really dangerous." Qiyana squinted her eyes and said with a hint of meaning: "For the sake of Runeterra, it might be the best choice to keep you in Ixtar, which is isolated from the world."

"Hey, hey, this joke is not funny at all."

"I seldom joke." Qiyana didn't answer directly, but changed the subject: "About Ne'Zuk...what are you going to do with that darkin crystal?"

Hearing Qiyana's question, Yuan Chen also nodded thoughtfully:

"Darkborn...or in other words, although the power of the Ascendant far surpasses that of a human, the essence is still life. If contact is made through the physical body, then even in a state of deep sleep, Ne'Zuk's power will take away the contacted Flesh."

"It's impossible to activate it in the current environment. Hold it first, and try to wake up Ne'zuk's consciousness alone when there is a chance."

Yuan Chen shook his head helplessly: "Otherwise, even if Na'zuk's strength is not enough due to the initial recovery, relying on powerful magic ability, it is enough to leap beyond our sight and perception..."

Hearing this, Qiyana nodded in agreement.

Although proud, strong, and even sometimes inappropriately arrogant.But one thing cannot be denied, that is, Qiyana is a real master in elemental magic.

Coupled with extensive reading, Qiyana is very aware of the danger of the dark descendants... In the corner of history in the past, there have been several tragedies of massacres due to the awakening of the dark descendants.
"So where do we go next?"

"Mining area."

After getting the answer she wanted, Qiyana also showed a hint of disgust in her eyes: "That would be the best... The nouveau riche of Piltover needs some lessons from natural elements!"

With that said, Yuan Chen, Qiyana, the road guards, accompanying scholars, Milio and others headed towards the mining area of ​​Piltover in a hurry.

It is said to be a mining area, but it is actually the primitive dense forest on the Kumangu Mountains on the back of Ixtar.During the time of the Shurima Empire, the Kumangu Mountains were the domain of Ixtar.

It was only with a series of disasters such as the subsequent dark-born war that Ixtar reduced the scope of the country.

Now it is jointly developed by Piltover, Zaun, Noxus and many other national forces, and it is the actual land owner.But it doesn't matter, because in terms of jurisprudence, Ixtar has enough capital to say to them: "Since ancient times".

Well, Yuan Chen didn't actually plan to take Milio with him at the beginning, but Milio's life during this period was really miserable.

Unlike Yuan Chen, although Yuan Chen is Milio's teacher in name, and because of the reform and founding of the country and other remarks, Yuan Chen and Qiyana are now on the cusp, and they argue every day in the mouths of old and new scholars, accepting praise and praise. refute.

But Milio is completely different, as a walking, a lot of SCI papers.Milio is considered by almost all the early axiomists as a wedge to expand the possibility of expanding the boundary of the early axiom.

Because Milio has successfully made the flame present a completely different, even diametrically opposed nature from the axiom of the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty.

Although this made Milio feel the fullness of his life, the young Milio felt exhausted even after one month in a row...Compared with academics, only 12 years old, the young Milio yearned for magical adventures more.

Unable to bear Milio's soft and hard paws—mainly recalling the anguish of struggling in the sea of ​​learning in his previous life, Yuan Chen also took Milio to Piltover.

As for scholars or something... let alone.

In the original storyline, Qiyana pleaded with her parents to expel these invaders who destructively exploit natural resources.After King Yuen refused, Qiyana went alone and killed everyone in the entire mining area, leaving only a single seedling to send a message.

Well, Qiyana has never been a softhearted person.Without Yuan Chen's intervention, with Qiyana's strong character, the nine older sisters who stand in her way to become king might be the same as Azir's nine older brothers.

It became a tragedy, nine accidents, and a miracle named the last son enthroned.

But for Yuan Chen, killing and fighting are always the least efficient and most uncontrollable means and methods.Since I know so much secret information, not making good use of this information is simply a waste of my talents and talents.

On the other side, the mining area.

At the crossroads of the Kumongu and Calduna Mountains, miners from Piltover are toiling.

It is actually not accurate to say that it is the miners of Piltover, because although the mining area was explored, established by Piltover, and transported and sold after the collection was completed, they were not the ones who collected it.

In fact, the miners who mine minerals, or really go down to the mines for dangerous and exhausting labor operations, are all from the bottom of Zaun.

Now, in the mine, Hewlett, the tunnel foreman, is waving the mechanized prosthetic body in his hand and knocking on the stone wall in front of him dissatisfied with his limbs.

This stone wall is extremely huge, as if it has been carefully repaired.In addition to being flat, the rough wall has a warm touch, and the color of the rock has a strange tea-brown color that is completely different from other tunnel ores.

Accompanied by the sound of steel colliding from the mechanical prosthesis, Hewlett shouted with some dissatisfaction in the dialect characteristic of the population of the Zaun trench:
"Damn! What is this thing? It wasn't there yesterday, why is there an extra wall suddenly?"

As he said that, Hewlett looked at the miners sitting on the ground behind him, who seemed to have just had a round of labor.

In this regard, the disgraced miners just sat on the ground with tired faces.

Beside these miners, there are a large number of alchemy drilling rigs, pneumatic picks, and boxes of Hex explosives.

Under normal circumstances, they should all be busy digging stones and breaking ground, and the hex rough stone hidden in this vein——

Hex crystals can be produced from hex crystals after refining, and the refined hex crystals are better and more pure than artificial hex crystals.

Of course, Rough Hex is Rough Hex, and Raw Hex is Raw Hex.The former is a large amount of solidified magic power.The latter is a rare treasure that can affect time and space under certain circumstances, and the two cannot be confused.

Rough Hexstones will appear in areas rich in magic power—and in terms of the abundance of magic power, the only place in Runeterra in this era that can rival Ixtar is Eastern Shurima.

But in the tunnel, the miners didn't have a job, they just sat very tired, as if they didn't even plan to ask for wages.

"It's useless! Boss!" A Zaun man wearing a crude breathing filter shouted in a hoarse voice that had been poisoned:

"We tried it! We have broken three of the drill bits of the alchemy drill! This stone wall doesn't even have a scratch! And the explosives, too, I'm still ringing in the ears!"

Hearing the words of the man in Zaan, the foreman Hewlett said with a little jealousy: "Fuck! This is unlucky! I haven't received a loan for my prosthetic body yet!"

With that said, Hewlett turned around and walked out: "I'll go find the Picheng guy and call a mine master, wait a minute..."

Before Hewlett finished speaking, suddenly, the work bell hanging above the tunnel and tied with the roller skating team by a rope rang hastily.

The ringing of the work bell represents the start and end of work.But now the bell for work just rang not long ago——

"Damn it! Something happened!" Hewlett spat and shouted on the ground, "There's something wrong in the mine! Get out! Don't just ruin the mine!"

It is said that the absenteeists who were still tired sitting on the ground and resting did not care about other things, got up and ran outside-for miners anywhere, mine collapse is the most terrible nightmare.

However, until they came to the entrance of the mine, they did not find any abnormalities in the mine.

On the contrary, after reaching the ground, they saw the police officers of Piltover gathered together in horror, and a dozen people aimed at the gate with long guns and short cannons in their hands.

Located outside the door, Yuan Chen controlled the fiery flying blade to chop the iron door into pieces with a gentle face.
