LOL: Let me touch your steel

But Zhang Xu, the creator of the carnival, did not participate in it. After declining Azir's offer to host a banquet, Zhang Xu went straight to his house and rested peacefully.

It's not just the aftereffects of that 'eye', it's also to better control his current power.

The vast power of the Dragon King existed in his body and completely suppressed the nothingness in his body. This suppression allowed Zhang Xu to almost completely master the power of nothingness.

But compared to the Dragon King...

Today, the surge in power still seems insignificant.

However, for Zhang Xu, this is still something worth celebrating.

The ascension energy turned into the power of the Dragon King, and he could be said to have climbed onto the high branch of the Dragon King!

The only pity is that after ascending, I still maintain my original form...

But thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem a pity. If he really wants to add something else to his body, even if it is dragon scales related to dragons, Zhang Xu may not be able to adapt.

......

"Zhang Xu, where are we going now?"

Sivir, who had undergone the ascension ceremony and became an ascender, followed behind Zhang Xu and asked in a low voice.

After a month, Janna, Taliyah and Sivir finally completed their ascension ceremony. And Zhang Xu was finally able to embark on his journey again, oh no, the journey of the Void Watcher sealed under the True Ice.

only...

The person following him changed from Taliyah to Sivir.

Taliyah, who had been away from home for a long time, wanted to return to the tribe to accompany her parents for some time. In addition, Azir discovered the great talent hidden in Taliyah, so Taliyah stayed in Shurima.

Sivir, who had learned a lot from Azir, was sent by Azir to Zhang Xu's side. Although it seemed that she was sent by Azir to monitor Zhang Xu, Azir obviously could not be so dirty.

Of course, Azir still has some selfish motives.

He hopes that Shiver can train with Zhang Xu and learn more things that he cannot learn in the palace. He also hopes that Shiver can have more contact with Zhang Xu.

The more he looked at Zhang Xu, this loyal minister, the more he liked him.

Strong, loyal... countless advantages, outstanding appearance is just his least notable advantage. For such a minister, Azir does not mind marrying his offspring to him.

However, Azir claims to be a wise monarch, so it is impossible for him to force Zhang Xu to marry his offspring, right?

So he simply sent Sivir to Zhang Xu's side and let the two of them develop their relationship. As for Zhang Xu's original confidante... Azir didn't think it was a big problem. Before he ascended to heaven, he was also an emperor with three palaces and six courtyards, so naturally he wouldn't care about this kind of problem.

Looking at Sivir's appearance after her ascension, Zhang Xu still felt a little uncomfortable.

To be honest, Sivir did not become uglier after her ascension. Her original wheat-colored skin, with the addition of animal features after her ascension, has become even more wild and seductive.

Especially the pair of ears that have turned into cat ears and the little tail wagging behind...

Tsk, the temptation of cat girl!

Speaking of which, Taliyah's ascension form was not very obvious. She just had a pair of moose antlers on her head and some slight changes on her face.

As for Janna, there was also no change.

As a demigod, she already possessed the most suitable body, so the ascension energy only consolidated her own strength and did not have any effect on her body.

"Zhang Xu, Xiweier is asking you a question."

Kasa tugged at Zhang Xu's sleeve, bringing him back from his trance.

"Sorry, I was distracted."

Zhang Xu responded apologetically. As for the next journey, Zhang Xu had already planned it after getting the world map of Runeterra from Ezreal.

Starting from the port of Zaun, before leaving, I let Janna see the prosperity of Zaun now, so that she can leave with me at ease, and then take a boat all the way to Bilgewater Port. Even if I can't see all the four terrifying legends of Bilgewater, I must see two, right? If I have the chance, I may even be able to see the gods that Illaoi believes in.

After staying in Bilgewater for a while, you can take a boat out of Bilgewater and continue heading into the depths of the ocean to reach the former Blessed Islands, now the Shadow Islands.

Zhang Xu really wants to go see Brother Clown... No, Brother Pure Love.

Then, take a boat all the way to Ionia.

If you calculate the time, when they arrive in Ionia, they might just encounter the war between Noxus and Ionia.

After traveling through Noxus, Demacia and Freljord, try to climb Mount Targon and see those Protoss who have a bad reputation.

Well, the plan was perfect.

I hope it can be implemented as desired in the end.

After Zhang Xu briefly stated his plan, he was instantly echoed by everyone. Even Janna became very interested in the four terrifying legends of Bilgewater mentioned by Zhang Xu.

It was a completely new scenery that they had never seen before.

......

The endless desert.

A man with bluish-purple skin and strange patterns all over his body was walking in the desert with his upper body naked. Even though the sun was scorching the earth and he was carrying a huge scroll on his back, he still did not show any signs of fatigue, and not even a drop of sweat shed from his body.

This mage is the Rune Mage, Ryze!

He walked alone throughout the entire Rune Land, just to find those runes that were powerful enough to destroy the world and maintain the peace of the entire Rune Land.

Although he has lived for a long time, time seems to have stagnated on him. There are not many signs of aging on his face. Although his chin is covered with beard, he still does not look old.

He sensed the power of the runes in Piltover and pursued it all the way into the desert.

And now, he felt this power again.

It is getting closer and closer to where he is now!

Ryze looked up at the sun hanging above his head and sighed silently:

"Hopefully, this time, the rune does not fall into the hands of someone with evil at heart..."

Chapter 168 Ryze!

Zaun, the port of Golask.

With the death of Renata, the Gorsk industry that once controlled the lifeblood of the entire city fell into decline. However, the Gorsk Port was still preserved as a bridge for trade with other regions, and it became more and more prosperous with the development of Ike.

Under the reflection of the setting sun, the harbor is golden, and the tranquil water surface of the harbor reflects the afterglow of the setting sun, quiet and peaceful.

Janna stood quietly on the dock, staring blankly at the scene around her and gazing into the distance, her expression vaguely seeming a little dazed.

Thousands of years ago, many people lived by the sea and worked hard as sailors. The belief of praying for a safe return led to the birth of Janna.

But now, Janna hasn't heard the prayers from the sailors for a long time.

With more advanced ships and more sophisticated instruments, the sailors here can return safely even without praying to her.

It really is... a lot of vicissitudes!

Janna suddenly smiled, and her whole face completely relaxed.

This time she returned to Zaun, only two months had passed since she left. But the whole of Zaun seemed to have ushered in an earth-shaking change, and the whole city exuded a different kind of vitality from top to bottom.

Although it will still be unable to get rid of the reputation of being backward in the short term, as long as it keeps going, Zaun will surely have a better tomorrow.

As the guardian of Zaun, Janna was happy to see this sight.

A stable and progressive city, perhaps there is really no point in staying here.

It's time to step into the outside world and see the scenery elsewhere.

Janna breathed a sigh of relief, raised her head to meet Zhang Xu's gaze, and spoke softly:

"Let's go to Bilgewater and see those interesting sights you mentioned."

He didn't know if it was Zhang Xu's illusion, but he always felt that when Janna spoke now, her voice didn't seem as ethereal as before.

It still sounds good, but it has a more worldly feel.

Zhang Xu nodded and waved the four tickets in his hand: "I have already bought all the tickets. I originally wanted to charter the entire ship, but I didn't expect that the money Ezreal gave me was not enough."

“But there shouldn’t be many people going to Bilgewater, so it shouldn’t be much different from chartering a boat.”

Zhang Xu shook his head in annoyance. He had thought that the money he got from Ezreal would be enough to last for a while, but he didn't expect that chartering a ship would be so expensive.

I should have known better when I went to Piltover to ask for help from the little yellow-haired guy...

Oh no, I should ask Azir for some money when I go out. This guy owns the whole of Shurima, so he must be very rich. As the Sun Priest of Shurima, I am second only to the emperor. It is reasonable for me to borrow some money from the emperor, right?

Tsk...

Next time, remember to bring up the matter of borrowing money first when you meet...

After getting on the boat, Kasa leaned on the railing of the deck with some curiosity, looking at the structure of the entire ship with curiosity.

The concept of ship has only existed in Kasa's childhood impressions. Only after listening to her knowledgeable father's talk did she have a general impression of it in her mind.

Today was the first time that Kasa saw a boat, and also the first time she traveled on a boat.

Everything on the ship was new to Kasa.

In contrast, Janna and Sivir seemed very calm. As a god who was once believed in by sailors, Janna had dealt with these sailors a lot over the long years.

Although Sivir was born in the Shurima Desert, as the leader of a mercenary group, she also traveled far and wide and saw a lot of the world.

Kasa lay quietly on the railing, her eyes focused on the sea, as if she was looking for traces of fish in the sea, or as if she was in a daze, feeling unhappy.

Zhang Xu quickly noticed Kasa's abnormality and came to Kasa's side.

After holding those delicate hands, Zhang Xu stroked Kasa's long hair with his other hand:

"what happened?"

Kasha spoke with her nasal cavity and groaned: "It reminds me of the stories my father told me when I was a child."

I miss my father-in-law!

Zhang Xu nodded in understanding, and his face immediately froze.

hiss...

Speaking of father-in-law, did he forget something?
