- #544 - Chapter 542 The calm before the storm
After finding his former follower Sterathu, Aatrox did not stay too long in the Twin Cities and immediately returned to Shurima through the portal, preparing to lift the seal for her.
Unlike Varus, who was eager for revenge and lost all his sanity, Stilatu participated in the Void War, but as a mage, she did not need to go too deep into the battlefield, so the impact was not serious.
Even during the Darkin Rebellion, Stilatu was more rational than most Darkin. As long as she could lift the seal and ascend for the second time, she would definitely become a Darkin with her strong control over the fire elemental magic. A big boost for Shurima, and even League of Legends.
After temporarily dealing with the emergencies in Freljord and Zaun, until a year and a half passed, Runeland spent its time in peace.
As League of Legends gradually grows, those little “unexpected” incidents will soon be smoothed over.
As for Ionia, with Li Lin’s secret guidance, Shen discovered in an “accident” that his father Ku Shuo, who had been “dead” for many years, appeared on the plateau of Zhiyun Province and learned shadow magic.
After being discovered by Shen, Ku Shuo did not panic too much. Instead, he wanted to win over him and the newly developed Kinkou sect to join the Navoli Brotherhood, and then take charge of the entire Ionia, and even wanted to compete for the dominance of the League of Legends.
Ku said that he had changed, and he was not the respected Twilight Eye in Shen’s mind at all.
Shen could not accept that his revered father had been corrupted by shadow magic. During the confrontation with him, Ku Shuo, who had already lost his humanity, was about to kill his son, but was stopped by Zed, who rushed to the scene after hearing the news.
The world line has changed and advanced. He has been practicing for many years less. He is not as mature as the original world line. Shen and Jie are no match for the Tears of Shadows, and Ku Shuo’s magic has been greatly enhanced.
Fortunately, Li Lin arrived in time to help them, and they were able to solve the problem of the former head of the Kinkou Sect who was swallowed by the shadow magic.
It was also from this that Shen finally learned the truth about the Kinkou sect’s capture and massacre. All of this was the work of his father in order to secretly resist Noxus. However, he said that he was affected by the Tears of Shadow and deviated from his original intention.
Some time later, with the alliance of the Kinkou Sect and the Shadow Stream Sect, the Navori Brotherhood in Ionia was banned, the Shadow Stream gradually reduced its external activities, and the Kinkou Sect returned to its dominant position.
Ku said he was dead, and Zed was not interested in the power dispute. He chose to do his best to train Kayn to become his successor, and at the same time prepare for the coming of the Void in the future.
Religious belief in Mount Targon is still a problem. The Sun Sect is autocratic and self-contained. Except for the people in the Mount Targon area, they hardly communicate with the outside world.
Even Pantheon, the former human host of the war stars, no longer recognizes Atreus as the “God of War” due to the vacancy of the war constellations in the sky.
In recent months, Li Lin has tried to contact Leona, the goddess of the dawn, whom he had met once before when he was fighting against Xerath. However, even if she knew about the extreme actions of the Sun Sect, this goddess could not influence the sect. Extreme thoughts.
She knew that the Burning Sun Sect had deviated from its original intention, but Li Lin tried to contact the higher-ups of the sect through her, but she was still rejected.
Leona, who has been infused with the power of the Sun Celestial Spirit, has long since shed her mortal body. She has stayed at Mount Targon for decades or even hundreds of years, receiving the influence of the Sun Sect day and night.
After all, she is the guardian and revealer of the Sun Sect. Leona still trusts the current senior management and believes that matters of the Sun Sect should be handled by themselves, and Li Lin or the League of Legends have no right to interfere.
Out of helplessness and busyness, Li Lin temporarily put down matters on Mount Targon and had no intention of asking Zoe to help him.
In addition, through the miniature Runeterra, it was found that a shield was inherited by a Demacia family named Fortis, who happened to be a follower of Aatrox at the time. One of his most admired subordinates – Joral who was good at absolute defense.
Traces of new Darkin living weapons have also been detected in the waters of Bilgewater, Ionia’s Barua Province and the northern mountains of Mount Targon. However, the mechanical engineers and Ascended are still scanning and searching, and there are no results for the time being.
Things on the planet of Runeterra, in outer space, the fourth phase of star fortress construction is nearing completion.
It could have been completed more than half a year ago, but some mechanical engineers were deployed to other countries and front lines to build defensive fronts, which slowed down a lot, but the impact was not significant.
…
…
In the Piltover Administrative Office Building, Li Lin was sitting in his office looking at the information compiled by Zhi Nao in recent days.
As of now, genetic enhancement technology has been made public for some time, and every registered citizen in the Shuang Cities is eligible to receive the first-stage genetic enhancement potion free of charge.
Because Li Lin brought earth-shaking changes to the two cities, almost no one supported him. In addition, due to the publicity of those who had injected the medicine, within a week, the vast majority of people had undergone physical strengthening in an orderly manner.
Lines of projected data flew past Li Lin’s eyes, just a flash for ordinary people, but Li Lin’s brain was comparable to a supercomputer and could easily handle this small amount of content.
“The pilot work in the Twin Cities is going very well. If Jarvan III and Swain implement it, there should be no problem in strengthening the bodies of the people in Demacia and Noxus.
“If there are no accidents in these two countries, we can go to Shurima for trial first, and then develop Ionia, Freljord and Bilgewater regions.”
Taking a sip of the warm tea, Li Lin leaned back on the chair and stretched.
[After the first phase of universal physical strengthening is completed, we can proceed to the second phase of universal physical strengthening. According to my calculations, at least another two years will be needed between this period in order to maintain social stability. 】
“Too slow.” Li Lin frowned and thought, stroking his bare chin with his right hand, “If you follow your plan, it will take five years to adapt to the third stage of physical strengthening, and we don’t have that much time. “
[But this will produce a certain degree of social unrest… and may even produce unpredictable consequences. 】
Zhinao was silent for a moment.
[Conditions permitting, we can select a group of heroic warriors who do not know magic and give them superpower genetic enhancements suitable for them. 】
[In this way, they will obey your instructions, master, and at the same time will not pose a threat to social stability, just like the God-Emperor did. 】
“Oh?” Li Lin raised an eyebrow, “What has Azir done recently?”
[As you said, the great Creator God Cast Star Dragon King is willing to bestow his power. The ascension ceremony is no longer defective and does not require the ascended person to have the corresponding qualifications. 】
[So, the God Emperor re-issued the ascension edict this morning, and the Sun Priests are looking for people with both ability and political integrity across the country to prepare for the ascension ceremony. 】
[It’s only a matter of time before we notify you and the League of Legends side. 】
“Have you decided to restart the ascension ceremony…” Li Lin murmured to himself, suddenly feeling an inexplicable sense of urgency in his heart.
Over the past year, it has become increasingly difficult for Lissandra to maintain the seal. When the last new moon rose, she foreshadowed that the monitor who had once broken through into the material realm was about to move.
Even if they are allowed to sleep for another ten years, Shurima will never be able to regain the glory of thousands of god warriors, not to mention that there were no monitors to participate in the Void War.
Li Lin took a breath of cool air into his lungs and exhaled it heavily to relieve the tension and anxiety in his heart.
Still too slow…
The clouds are gloomy and the calm before the storm has arrived. Will the violent storm afterward be far away?
