"Yasuo, apologize to Grandpa Qin!"
Yasuo stepped forward and bowed to Grandpa Qin, saying:
"I was rude before, please forgive me, Master Qin!"
Upon hearing that Yasuo was now Luo Tian's bodyguard, Master Qin dared not ask Yasuo to apologize.
A smile forced across his old face, and Grandpa Qin waved his hands repeatedly like a bewildered old man, saying:
"It's alright, it's not alright at all!"
After speaking, Grandpa Qin looked at Yasuo's unsheathed blade with admiration and said with some satisfaction:
"To have achieved such accomplishments in swordsmanship at such a young age, one can truly be a force to be reckoned with!"
After praising him, Grandpa Qin looked at Luo Tian and said:
"Mr. Luo must have other important matters to attend to, so I will go and guard the gate without disturbing you any longer."
After seeing Luo Tian nod in response, Grandpa Qin picked up the wheelchair on the ground without looking back and ran away, not at all like a 300-year-old man who had suffered serious injuries.
Watching Grandpa Qin hurriedly leave, Luo Tian chuckled softly and spoke under Yasuo's puzzled gaze:
"Let's leave Uncle Qin's matter aside for now, and from now on we should treat him with more respect."
"Yes!"
"Before I came here, I heard from Vice President Abin that there are still two transmigrators in Juying Hall who haven't been dealt with yet. Where is the other one?"
When Luo Tian mentioned the remaining transmigrators, Yasuo's face immediately showed an extremely strange expression.
After hesitating several times, Yasuo finally spoke:
"As for the remaining one, I can't say for sure. Let's wait for our lord to go and check on him!"
Yasuo's attitude, along with the demeanor of the previous Vice President Abin, aroused even more curiosity in Luo Tian.
Vice President Abin mentioned that there are two time travelers in the current Gathering of Heroes Hall, one of whom is a rather troublesome swordsman, which should refer to Yasuo.
A transmigrator who cannot be recruited by other forces is indeed a troublesome thing for the Otherworld Management Committee.
As for the other character who was once highly anticipated but turned out to have no potential, even with Luo Tian's discerning eye, it would be difficult to determine his specific identity based solely on this information.
Yasuo walked ahead, stepping across the dilapidated arena beneath the dazzling display of his Wind-Riding Sword Technique, and heading into the lush forest on one side of the Gathering Hall.
After entering the woods, Luo Tian suddenly discovered that it was actually a series of small parks, and the location was right within the area occupied by Juying Hall.
The Juying Hall actually occupies a fairly large area, but the dense vegetation covers most of it, making the buildings that are visible outside look rather small.
However, Juying Hall has been neglected for many years, and the sizable park in front of us looks somewhat dilapidated, with large piles of broken stones on the surrounding roads.
Yasuo led Luo Tian deeper into the area, while the knight beside him kept looking around with wide eyes.
Suddenly, the knight seemed to have discovered something. The usually timid creature mustered its courage and cautiously ran to the pile of rubble by the roadside, staring intently at a few stones.
The stone before him was grayish-white and looked unremarkable, but the knight sensed a different meaning within it.
It tried to muster a bit of interest, stretching out its pointed feet to carefully poke at the small stones on the ground.
"Knight, what are you doing?"
Luo Tian's call came from ahead, and the knight turned around to find Luo Tian standing in front of him, waving.
The knight glanced at the small stone on the ground with some doubt, hesitated for a moment, and then ran towards Luo Tian's direction.
Shortly after the knight turned around, a pair of tiny eyes suddenly appeared on the small stone it had been fiddling with.
It watched the knight leave, seemed to think it over carefully, and then quickly rolled its body to the other side of the garden.
As the small stone began to move, the surrounding pebbles on the ground also began to roll in the same direction.
After winding through the park, Yasuo led Luo Tian to a huge, man-made swamp.
In the very center of the swamp, a huge body that looked like an infant but was over three meters tall was fast asleep.
A large amount of mud and water submerged most of his body, and the parts exposed on the surface of the swamp were covered with grayish-white stones that had turned into mud after it dried.
Above his forehead, several large, sharply defined stones appeared on his body like some kind of decorative organ.
"This is the other remaining time traveler in the Gathering of Heroes Hall, a mutated mountain giant."
Luo Tian looked at the real giant baby lying in the mud in front of him, his expression somewhat surprised.
Mountain Giants are frequent characters in many myths, legends, and anime stories, with different appearances in almost every world.
However, overall, the Mountain Giants are not of low status, and the grown Mountain Giants are far superior to the Cyclopes in the Undead City.
Such a transmigrator shouldn't be abandoned by other forces.
Seemingly sensing the doubt in Luo Tian's eyes, Yasuo provided the answer.
"The world from which this mountain giant came is unverifiable. When it first arrived in the Star World, this mountain giant became the object of contention among various forces."
They discovered that this mountain giant's body was very different from other mountain giants; his flesh seemed to have merged with the surrounding rocks in some way, giving the rocks a sense of life.
This discovery thrilled many, who poured vast amounts of precious resources into studying the mountain giants, hoping it would lead to further discoveries and research.
"However, after several twists and turns, neither the Fountain of Life nor the Heart of Titan, such precious treasures, could make the mountain giant grow in any way. Moreover, this mountain giant was extremely dull in terms of intelligence, even far inferior to an infant."
If the mountain giants were allowed to grow naturally, it would take at least a thousand years for them to reach adulthood.
Despite massive investments, no one reaped the rewards, and several research institutes even went bankrupt due to excessive losses.
The various factions that invested in the Mountain Giant wanted to dissect it, but due to conflicting interests, they were unable to do so and ultimately had to return the Mountain Giant to the Gathering Hall.
Luo Tian looked at the veritable giant baby in front of him, a look of disappointment on his face.
He had previously hoped to find a bargain and pull an SR card from someone else's leftover cards, but now it seems that this thing in front of him isn't even an N card.
However, gaining Yasuo's loyalty under these circumstances is already a good result; asking for more would be too greedy.
Turning his gaze away, Luo Tian had no intention of lingering over the giant baby sleeping soundly in the mountain range before him, and prepared to leave first.
However, after taking only two steps, a strange sound suddenly appeared in the park, like the sound of some rocks rolling and colliding, which made Luo Tian stop in his tracks.
Seeing this, Yasuo explained to Luo Tian:
"My lord, this is a strange phenomenon in the park. Almost every day around noon, this sound suddenly appears."
The Otherworld Management Committee had previously sent people to investigate, but found nothing. Furthermore, since the sound didn't pose any threat to the entire Gathering of Heroes Hall, it was eventually ignored.
Luo Tian paid no attention to Yasuo's words; he simply listened intently, trying to catch the faint sound that was coming from the park.
The soft, rustling sound resumed, like the sound of countless tiny grains of sand rolling in a strong wind.
A vast number of syllables are pieced together, eventually transforming into that incredibly familiar sound.
"I also sprang from a stone, so why am I not a monkey?"
Chapter 88: The Scoring Beast and +3 Experience!
Upon hearing that vague statement, Luo Tian suddenly froze.
Because this line was extremely familiar to him, even more so than to Yatox in some respects.
Because this line is actually a line from the lava behemoth Malphite.
Malphite, also known as the Stone Man, is a famously intelligent but incompetent player in League of Legends, a languishing top laner, and a frequent figure on the Yasuo family tree...
If Aatrox top lane is Nasus's nemesis, then Malphite top lane is definitely Nasus's best friend. No Nasus who wants to farm safely can resist the temptation of laning against Malphite.
In addition, Malphite is almost one of the champions with the fewest lines in the entire League of Legends, making him a prime example of the opposite of the talkative Aatrox.
The line that Luo Tian just heard was the longest line in the Stone Man's repertoire, almost taking up most of the Stone Man's brain capacity.
So where is the remaining brain capacity? It's been divided among the other stone golems, of course!
It's common knowledge that all the world's rock collectors share a common brain.
A pleased smile appeared on Luo Tian's face as he glanced at Yasuo and asked:
"Can you sense the direction from which those sounds are coming?"
Yasuo looked puzzled, then listened intently, but after a long while he still couldn't make out anything.
Shaking his head regretfully, Yasuo responded softly:
"Your subordinate is incompetent!"
The sounds came from all directions, and their composition was so fragmented that I couldn't determine their origin.
Luo Tian waved his hand, his expression unchanged, and said, "The people from the Otherworld Management Committee have also been here, and they didn't find any trace of this voice, so you can't be blamed for this."
After saying that, Luo Tian stopped rushing to leave the park and began to wander aimlessly around the area.
Knowing that there was an unexpected stone figure in the park, Luo Tian was pleasantly surprised, but he did not think that the stone figure was his for the taking.
Putting aside the issue of communicating with the behemoth, the fact that the Otherworld Management Committee had already sent people to search for the source of those strange sounds, but failed to find the stone man, is enough to explain a lot.
The stone golem is extremely well hidden, and it seems impossible to find it by ordinary means.
However, this was not a big problem for Luo Tian.
In the simplest terms, smashing the entire park with one punch is one method, but this method would easily finish off the rock golem with a Q.
However, from another perspective, the 12-layer passive ability can be seen as finding the Stone Golem and allowing him to realize his value.
However, Luo Tian cannot resort to such extreme methods. At this stage, he has a more stable way to find the Stone Man.
Wandering slowly through the park, Luo Tian would stop and linger at almost every place before moving on to another spot.
Yasuo followed Luo Tian closely. Although he didn't understand the purpose of Luo Tian's actions, Yasuo remained as loyal as a bodyguard, dutifully performing his duties.
As the sun began to set, Luo Tian's initial composure gradually turned into some irritability.
After wandering aimlessly in the park for five or six hours, Luo Tian's initial confidence began to change.
He began to doubt whether his method of finding heroes based on experience was reliable.
"How about... I just punch it? What if the stone golem is buried underground? I'll never find it no matter how I search."
As Yasuo followed behind Luo Tian, a chill inexplicably rose in his heart. An inexplicable unease made him subconsciously grip the unsheathed blade in his hand.
At the other end of the park, the demonic sword Aatrox, which Luo Tian had casually tossed on the ground, stumbled and flew towards the park after a long period of hesitation.
"After using me, you just discarded me carelessly, ignoring me completely. Are you testing me?"
"Isn't he afraid that I'll find a new body in this unfamiliar city and then go on a killing spree?"
