Battle of the Two Cities: Begins with the Mage

"What do the Vastayas think of the Empire, and how do they view this homeland?"

Swain waved his hand to interrupt Horen, who was in a hurry to say something, and his voice was not in a hurry:

"I want to hear the real answer, Horen, you are not good at lying, and every word you say today may decide the fate of Vastaya."

Hearing this sentence, Huo Lun couldn't help shuddering.

The fate of Vastaya puts a lot of pressure on him.

He kept thinking about the intention of Swain's words in his mind, and even thought of the other party's intention.

Obviously, the vice president of Trifali, did not come here for no reason.

Even the arrival of Swain may mean that the war is not far away.

Horren had never seen a nation more belligerent than Noxus.

Vastaya is aggressive and often gets into disputes over his temper.

But fighting Noxus was a life-like pursuit that the Vastaya couldn't even comprehend.

He had to think, if the empire came with war intent, how should they make a choice.

After a long time, Huo Lun raised his head seriously.

He glanced at Swain gratefully, at least Swain was willing to give him this patience.

"Your Excellency, the Great Commander, if the Vastayas are given hope, they are willing to follow the Empire to conquer this land."

To follow the Empire and make his own pledge is his choice and position as the leader of the vastayas of the Empire.

He didn't want the vastayas to be crushed by the imperial chariots, nor did he want the vastayas to return to their originality.

Perhaps what he can do is to involve Vastaya as much as possible to gain greater benefits.

Swain's eyes swept across Horen calmly, and he did not respond, but instead asked:

"Do the Vastaya want this land?"

Huo Lun's face was slightly stunned, and he said without thinking: "I dream about it, but if there is no empire, this is impossible. The Shadow Stream Sect, the Balance Sect, the Resistance Army, the Temple of Eternal Life... are not something we can resist. ."

The relationship between the vastaya and the Ionians is not good. Compared with the lack of connection between the vastaya, the Ionian relationship between the provinces is much better than them.

If they really want to retake their homeland, they will face no less enemy than Noxian aggression.

"Horon, you should know the rules of the empire." Swain's voice was calm.

"rule..."

Huo Lun's eyes were confused at first, then ecstatic.

The rules of the empire have always been very simple. As long as you have the strength, you can get everything you want.

In short, if the vastaya played an important role in the Empire's conquest of Ionia, the Empire would never be stingy.

He straightened up and assured in a loud voice:

"Your Majesty, the Great Commander, Vastaya is willing to shed the last drop of blood for the Empire."

He wasn't afraid that Swain would actually send Vastaya to his death, at least as far as he knew, neither the Empire nor Trifary were Darkwill's kind of people.

Hearing these words, Swain finally showed a faint smile:

"The Empire is willing to accept the vastayas, and is willing to provide everything you want. If you have ideas, use your strength to prove it!"

"Vastaya will prove it all!" Horren promised himself.

After leaving the executive hall, the sun had already set, but Hollen went to the XC area for the first time.

In front of a small and slightly dilapidated house, he paused, hesitated and knocked on the door.

"Squeak!"

The door was opened, it was a woman with long pink hair, her beautiful face was full of doubts:

"Consul Horren?"

"Sorry for disturbing you late at night." Hollen apologized.

"If so, please come in."

The woman squeezed out a smile and welcomed Horen in.

Horren's reputation among the vastayas is very good, and I have met her a few times.

But it's a little strange that Horren treats her better than everyone else.

But every time she thinks that she is an abandoned clan expelled by the Vastaya tribe, she will take it as a special care of Horen, but she has no other special thoughts.

The woman picked up the kettle on the table, poured a bowl of water, and placed it in front of Hollen gently:

"I'm sorry, but I don't have anything to entertain adults here."

"Madam, don't bother, a bowl of water is enough."

Huo Lun picked up the extraordinarily beautiful porcelain bowl, and the strange look in his eyes was fleeting. He brought the bowl to his mouth and drank the sweet water in one gulp. His dry throat felt much better.

Putting down the porcelain bowl, Huo Lun smiled at the woman in front of him and looked at the woman's home at will.

This is an ordinary two-bedroom, but the decoration and utensils reveal extraordinary.

Even in his home, there are not necessarily more valuable utensils than this. Food, drink and play equipment, here are the most expensive ones.

It can even be said that, except for the dilapidated house, it is enough to be called a noble house.

The woman hesitated for a moment, but asked cautiously, "I don't know why the adults are visiting at night, why?"

"I want to meet your son." Hollen said bluntly.

"You mean Seti?" The woman's shoulders trembled slightly. "Did something happen? He is still young, so he may have some ignorance. Please forgive me."

Seeing that the other party's face showed more and more helplessness, pain and begging for mercy, Huo Lun hurriedly explained:

"Madam, you misunderstood. Settee recently... It's not a bad thing, maybe it's a good thing for him."

After thinking about it, Huo Lun still said: "What he has done recently has been valued by the empire, so the empire wants to recruit him."

"It turned out to be this." The woman smiled, with relief on her face: "He also said yesterday that he built a house for the orphanage and returned with a large sum of money."

With emotion on her face, the woman rambled and said: "The adults also know that the child's father is a Noxian, and I was expelled from the tribe because of him. But I have never regretted giving birth to him, and the child has always been very good. I went out to work to earn money when I was very young, and it is said that I still do some manual work.”

She pointed to the porcelain bowl that Hollen had drank from, with happiness on her face:

"Usually, he would buy me a lot of beautiful-looking appliances. He was really filial since he was a child. These things looked very expensive. If I didn't let him give me money, he would bring some of these appliances. I can't refuse."

Hollen held the bowl's hand for a while. This bowl is not only very expensive, it is enough for his monthly salary.

You really can't compare to your son's speed in getting money from an administrator like yourself.

"I am very grateful to the empire, and I am grateful that the empire gave him the opportunity. Your lord, whether it is him or me, are willing to contribute to the empire."

The woman's expression was very sincere, and she thought so in her heart.

When their mother and son were discriminated against by the vastayas because of their status, it was the child's father's clan, Noxus, who accepted them and gave his child an environment to grow up in.

Every time she heard the child say that she was recognized by how many people, she could be excited by the child from the bottom of her heart, and she was proud and proud of it.

The empire needs them now, and even if they may encounter danger, she feels that they should do it.

When Huo Lun listened to the woman's words, his heart was complicated and abnormal, and he was also touched.

He felt a little guilty for coming here on purpose, but for the sake of Vastaya, there were some villainous things he might have to do.

"Don't worry, ma'am, he won't be in any danger, we're just..."

"Squeak!"

Suddenly, the door behind him opened.

Before Hollen's words were finished, a tall red-haired young man walked in, with a naked upper body full of muscles and a bright smile on his face:

Gubi

"Are there any guests at home?"

The shadows in his eyes flashed with cold light and killing intent.

"Seti, you're back. This is Archon Horon." The woman introduced her child with a smile.

"I've admired the name for a long time!" Huo Lun stood up.

Seti's brows wrinkled unconsciously. How could he have never seen Ho Lun? It's not good for these officials to watch their games.

He is full of worries now. He doesn't know whether he was told by Horen to his mother about what he was doing behind his back.

Huo Lun seemed to see his doubts and took the initiative to smile and stretch out his hand:

"Nice to meet you, helpful Seti!"

Hearing this title, Seti's body was obviously relaxed, and he stretched out his hand in pain: "Lord Huo Lun, it's nice to meet you!"

After the two got to know each other, Seti just wanted to find a reason to leave the woman when she heard his mother's voice:

"Seti, Lord Horren wants you to do things for the empire, you..." The woman opened her mouth, but changed her mouth, "Don't think about my thoughts, your thoughts are the main thing."

Although the woman said this, the other two still didn't understand what she meant.

Seti was silent, and said softly:

"Mom, this is the fruit I brought you, the sand thorn fruit from Shurima. You like sweets, so I bought some more for you."

He put the bag full of fruit on the table, and he lived with the woman, but it had become a habit to bring something every night.

"It's getting late. Mom, you should rest early. Lord Horen and I will go to my place to chat."

Seti stood up and walked out decisively.

Hollen said goodbye to the woman and walked out.

"Seti!"

The woman watched Seti walk to the door, but stopped him anyway.

When Seti turned her head with a smile, she also smiled:

"Son, pay attention to safety!"

"Don't worry, Mom!" Seti raised her sturdy arm, "The person who can bully your son hasn't been born yet!"

Having said that, he left gracefully.

Walking on the quiet road, Seti suddenly breathed a sigh of relief:

"thanks."

Huo Lun paused slightly: "The one who should say this is me. Everyone has something to hide, and I also have my own parents."

"I don't have a father!" Seti said calmly.

Regarding Setina's father who abandoned his wife and ran away, Huo Lun didn't want to make more comments, but said:

"Seti, don't you want him to kneel in front of your mother?"

Seti frowned, he thought, he dreamed!

But he knew how difficult it was. Noxus had power throughout Runeterra. He only knew that the coward was a Noxian gladiator like him, and he didn't know anything about the rest.

"Can you find him?"

As soon as the words came out, he immediately laughed at himself:

"Yeah, you must know. Come on, what do you want me to do? Fight with whom?"

"beat?"

The corners of Huo Lun's mouth were upturned, staring at the domineering Seti:

"You think I'm looking at your strength?"

"Cut." Seti spat, "Besides my strength, what else can I be attracted to by an official like you?"

After leaving his mother's side, his attitude was obviously a lot more reckless.

He is the king of gladiators in Port Lane, and he has no defeats. If it wasn't for his mother, he would have been upset when he saw something wrong.

But her mother still wanted him to serve the empire, and even if he didn't want to, he would choose to submit.

Just do it, give your mother a face!

Horan shook his head: "Do you think you are better than Lady Myrdalda, or better than General Xin Zhao?"

"I haven't called, how do you know I can't?" Seti snorted coldly.

He did not know Mrs. Myrdalda well, only that she was the commander-in-chief of the Noxians. But Xin Zhao's name, he heard too many times.

There are always many people comparing him to Xin Zhao, saying that he may become the second Xin Zhao in the future.

Being spotted by the nobles and going to the top... Bah! Why can't you rely on yourself?

"Even if you are better than them, what about the Trifali Council?" Horen's expression was flat.

"Don't talk about this, just say what I want to do." Seti said impatiently.

He was most bothered by the back and forth of these officials. This man is still a straightforward vastaya, how can it be more difficult than chatting with Noxians.

"I want you to stand up and become a bridge between the Noxians and the Vastaya." Horen said his thoughts directly.

"Your brain is not broken?" Seti was stunned for a moment, and said to himself with a thumb, "If you let me fight, I will come without a word, but if you let me mix these vain things, it won't work. !"

"You don't need to do anything else, just join the Noxian army and bring people to fight."

"Say it earlier!" When Seti heard this, his attitude immediately changed a lot. He shrugged and said cheerfully, "Tell me, who will be beaten, and what's the reward?"

At this moment, they also walked to a high **** with no one. Huo Lun glanced at the quiet city below and said in a deep voice:

"Attack on Ionia and find the homeland for Vastaya!"

"Ionia...this is a big deal." Sett grinned.

He doesn't care who he hits, as long as he can pay enough, he'll be done.

But finding his cowardly father wasn't enough for him to join the Noxian army to fight Ionia.

"The arena is under your control from today, and the profits will be counted on your head." Huo Lun's face was calm, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

Hearing this, Seti's eyes widened, and his face froze slightly.

He had just come up with a bold idea recently, to kill the manager of the arena and become the boss himself.

But this has not been implemented yet...

"You know my plan?"

"What's the plan?" Hollen frowned slightly, and then suddenly revealed, "Those idiots in the arena are in conflict with you because of their interests, but they're just ignorant guys, as long as you promise~www.readwn.com~ I'll be in a few days. I'll send someone to you."

Hearing this, Seti's expression was strange, in addition to surprise, he also felt aggrieved.

Those guys can't see the table, so what is he?

Horen seemed to understand what he was thinking, and said calmly:

"Serti, your future is not in Port Lane. With your strength and identity, you may soon surpass Xin Zhao and become a member of the Trifali Council."

Seti frowned and asked, "Having said so much, what's so special about my identity?"

He is just a descendant of a Noxian and a Vastaya. After the Noxian invasion of Ionia, there are not many people of this identity, and he has also supported many children of similar identity.

"The Empire wants to restore the glory of the Vastaya in Ionia, and this is the opportunity for the rise of the Vastaya."

Horen looked at Seti seriously:

"And your identity and strength are destined to become the representative of Vastaya and the new king of Ionia!"
