Eight hundred and sixtieth IX criminals flee

Time passed quietly, and before you knew it, another month passed by Demacia.

And in Demacia's most heavily guarded tower prison, there is no concept of time.

An isolated tower with no windows. This is a specially-made single-person cell for Demacia's most vicious criminals. The tower is entirely made of forbidden magic stones. There is only one passage that is heavily guarded, and there is no escape at all.

Lux, however, relied on the crest of her Crown Guard family to enter the prison that she should not have been able to enter.

"How is your magic? Shimmer." In the prison, a man kneeling on the ground, his wrists locked by heavy shackles, asked in a low voice in the dark.

There were no guards on the top floor of the tower, so a ball of light lit up in Lux's hand, and the light illuminated the darkness, making the man's appearance clearer.

The upper body is shirtless, the long hair is falling down, and the beard is stubborn.

A typical criminal.

But the difference is that this man's eyes are very bright.

Every time I see this man's eyes, Lux thinks of Garen. Although the man's thin face is not as righteous and awe-inspiring as Garen, the eyes are the same - they are eyes that want to protect something.

Lux felt a sense of intimacy in her heart, perhaps because of these eyes, perhaps because they were both mages, or perhaps because Lux sympathized with his experience, so even if the other party was a notorious criminal, it was difficult for Lux to know from the bottom of her heart. Hate and fear him. He was obviously just an accident, and Lux ​​entered here out of curiosity, but after getting to know Silas, the two quickly became friends.

A prisoner, an aristocrat, very communicative.

"Sorry for taking so long to see you, Silas." Lux took out a few books from the package and put them in through the bars of the cell door. "Come on, this is the book that promised you."

"It's alright, Shimmer, you've been good to me." Silas smiled, then turned from kneeling to sitting, and started flipping the book with both feet, because his hands were chained to the floor, and he couldn't. free movement.

"Can you stop calling me Shimmer?" Lux scratched her face, she always felt a little embarrassed by the word.

"You are the only one who is willing to talk to me, listen to my complaints, and give me something in the fifteen years I have been locked up in this ghost place." Silas laughed, "You are my light, this endless darkness. the only light."

"Thank...Thank you." Lux didn't know how to respond.

"I should thank you, by the way, how did your magic teacher teach you?" Silas asked.

"Very good." Speaking of this matter, Lux's face burst into a smile, "I can already make my body shine without moving. Also, I have learned how to use magic to cast a stable protective effect. Now I am learning how to use magic to imprison others, but this is a bit difficult, and I am not very good at it.”

"Looks like you've found a good teacher." Silas looked genuinely happy for Lux. "Can you tell me your teacher's name?"

"Sorry, she won't let me say..." Lux said apologetically, "She has to hide her identity."

"It's okay, I understand. In Demacia, mages can't be too careful." Silas shook the heavy chain on his wrist. "Otherwise, he will become like me."

Lux looked at the shackles and chains that trapped Silas. It was made of pure forbidden magic stone, which could contain all magic. Because Silas' magic power was too strong, the magic seeker could not destroy him, so he could only use He was trapped by the Forbidden Stone chains and towers, which made Silas's magic unable to use, and he could not escape.

"If I were not the daughter of the Crown Guard family, but came from a commoner..." Lux thought, "Maybe I will meet such a fate..."

Lux sat down on the floor, and the two started chatting. Lux talked freely about what happened in Xiongdu recently to relieve Silas. For Silas, everything that happened outside was as sweet as nectar. .

Silas is smart, he can do two things, chatting with Lux while watching Lux bring

books.

The book he was reading was brought by Silas at the request of Lux, and it was called The Life of Master Durant.

Duran is the most famous sculptor and architect in Demacia history. He personally designed the current Demacian palace, but his most famous work is actually the Colossus of Justice.

Silas flipped through the book with seriousness, as if to imprint every word in his eyes.

"Twilight." Silas interrupted Lux, who was talking enthusiastically about which nobleman Madame Lestara had recently scolded **** blood, and asked, "I remember you said before, the Colossus of Justice. As long as you are infused with magic, you will wake up, right?"

Lux nodded: "You should know about the Colossus of Justice. Every time there is a big battle, it will always be dragged into the battlefield by the army to resist the magic attack of the enemy army."

"Yeah... that's it..." Silas looked at the words on the book and suddenly laughed, "Thank you, Shimmer, these books are enough for me to read for a long time, you have been here for a long time. , go back first, and practice your magic with your teacher."

"Okay." Lux took out her pocket watch and looked at it, and found that the time had passed for a long time, and it was difficult to judge the time in this dark cell.

Lux stood up, patted her **** and asked, "Silas, what book do you want me to bring you next time?"

"No need." Silas laughed. "I don't have any other books I want to read for now."

"Okay, then take care of yourself, goodbye." Lux waved goodbye to Silas.

"Silas really doesn't look like a bad guy..." Lux thought, the longer she and Silas knew each other, the more she felt that he should actually be kind-hearted, "Unfortunately I can't let him out... I can only help He's so busy."

"Wait, Twilight." Silas stopped Lux, who was about to leave, and said, "You forgot to leave some light for me to read."

"Oh, yes." Lux raised her other hand, summoned a ball of light, passed through the fence, and placed it next to Silas' book, "Remember to use the Forbidden Stone to put out the light when the guards come. ."

"I remember." Silas laughed.

Silas watched Lux's back disappear into the doorway, the smile on his face still undiminished: "Sure enough... Laksana, you are the only light in my fifteen years of darkness... and soon, you will become My day is dawning..."

Silas directly leaned the Forbidden Stone chain to the ball of light, and the light dimmed at a very fast speed, as if suppressed by the function of the Forbidden Stone.

Silas said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, Shimmer, I asked you to bring me books for other reasons besides reading... But if you don't do this, you will definitely hesitate to give me books because of your character. your light

Well... After all, you are a good kid who listens to your parents... I will apologize to you later... Forgive me, I will make it up to you... I will let you... and all the mages... see light. "

The light disappeared completely, and the cell returned to absolute darkness again.

A few hours later, another light appeared.

Appeared in the hands of Silas.

boom!

A huge explosion sounded.

The tower prison, where Silas was being held, exploded.

Chapter eight hundred and seventieth Master's hatred

Morgana sat in Lux's room, and there was a lot of noise outside.

"Why so noisy?" Varieva asked impatiently.

"It seems that Rorschach's plan was successful, and that man named Silas escaped from prison." Morgana said.

"Who is this Silas?"

"The mage that Rorschach had bewitched many years ago, now Rorschach wants to use him again." Morgana recalled

According to the plan that Rorschach told her, and explained to the darkin in her body, although Varieva also heard what Rorschach said when she gave Morgana the task, she did not understand Demacia after all. There are many things, so I have to let Morgana explain to her, "He wants to use Silas to get Lux."

"Is there anything special about that hairy girl named Lux?"

"The magical energy in her body seems to be very restrained by demons. The last time Rorschach attacked her, she suffered a lot of injuries."

"No wonder that guy wants to get this hairy girl..."

"Originally, Rorschach wanted to bring chaos to the entire Xiongdu by exposing Lux's mage status. Lux is the eldest daughter of the Crown Guard family and the most meritorious nobleman in Demacia, who has made countless contributions to the country from generation to generation. The Crown Guard The family is bound to give up Lux, and the ban on magic is the iron law of Demacia. Once Lux's identity is exposed, the behavior of the Crownguard family to force her to protect her will lead to the anger of the whole country, even the king cannot suppress it. If Rorschach fanned the flames a little more, it could at least trigger a riot that would kill a lot of people. And Lux ​​was easily deceived when she had nowhere to go. Rorschach could let her use her magic to protect herself, so as to deceive her. Shooting to kill, even killing her own relatives, Lux's spirit is bound to be severely hit, and Rorschach can take the opportunity to accept her as a believer and join the House of Pleasure. It will not only make Demacia into chaos, but also make herself more A believer with powerful magic who kills two birds with one stone."

"Tsk, this devil is really doing things, bewildering and despicable." Varieva's disgust for Rorschach has reached its peak, "I really want to stab him to death."

"Rorschach originally wanted to give up Robert's identity and switch to another identity to approach Lux, waiting for an opportunity to publicly expose Lux to her own magic, but Rorschach temporarily changed his plan." Morgana continued, "because he found Lux. Silk actually came into contact with Silas, so Rorschach decided not to give up Robert's identity for the time being, and turned to Silas instead."

"What did he do?"

"Rorschach deliberately reminded Sylas of the essence of the Forbidden Stone." Morgana said, "The Forbidden Stone is actually not directly suppressing magic, but absorbing magic. This is even the virtue of using the Forbidden Stone for hundreds of years. The Marcias don't know."

"Absorbs magic? So the reason why that stone can invalidate magic is because it absorbs magic?"

"Yes, and the upper limit of the forbidden magic stone is very high. Even if the ordinary mage drains the magic power, it will not fill up a small piece of forbidden magic stone. But no matter how high the reserve is, there is an upper limit. , the magic power stored in it will be released in an instant."

"No wonder I heard such a loud explosion just now." Varieva understood, "It seems that the man has escaped by this trick."

"The next task Rorschach gave us was to encourage Lux to find Silas." Morgana said, "Now that the city has been sealed off, Silas must be hiding somewhere in Xiongdu. Find a way to escape."

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Just do it for now..." Morgana said.

"Cut, it's really useless." Varieva became impatient. "Find me a body, and I can solve all the problems directly."

"Don't worry, there will be a chance." Morgana had just finished communicating with Varieva, only to hear the door slammed open.

Lux rushed in with a pale face.

"Morgana!" Lux almost burst into Morgana's arms with a crying voice, "What should I do... What should I do?"

"Don't worry." Morgana gently touched Lux's head, "Tell me, what happened to make you so panic?"

"I..." Lux had no masters, and now Morgana was the only one who could help her, so she said everything that Morgana actually knew for a long time.

"Will you help me?" Lux asked in her last hope.

"I will." Morgana said firmly, "I will protect you no matter what."

...

Silas squeezed with both hands, strangling the last Demacian soldier who had come to the sewers to capture him.

"Ha...ha...ha..." Silas gasped. He had just killed a team of three soldiers, two men and one woman, all at his hands.

Demacia's soldiers are not waste, each has a certain skill, and it is very troublesome to solve.

"Fortunately... I also keep exercising every day in the cell." Silas' physique is very strong, and his shirtless upper body is full of tendons. Just now, he killed the enemy with this physique.

"Haha... Demacian, I can't think of it... Even if you lock me up, I haven't slack off for a day. Every day I think about revenge..." Silas stepped on the head of the dead soldier. , using this to relieve the hatred, "Ha... But it can't go on like this... Sooner or later, I will be caught."

Silas looked at his wrists. The heavy Forbidden Stone chains and wristcuffs were still on his wrists. Two thick Forbidden Stone chains dragged on the ground, restricting Silas' movements.

"The magic of the shimmering light was used to blow up the prison tower, and these two things were not blown up..." Silas thought, in fact, he did not dare to use magic to detonate the two chains of forbidden magic stones, because Doing so would most likely injure Silas himself.

So Silas had to drag the chains to escape. It was impossible for these two thick chains to hide, and Silas basically gave up the idea of ​​​​dressing up and escaping from Xiongdu.

"But this thing can still be used as a weapon for the time being." Silas was strong enough to swing the heavy chain, he just smashed a soldier's armor with a chain whip, "What should I do next? Although he said that he had escaped to the sewers temporarily, Wei Guang said that the sewers of Xiongdu lead to the outside of the city, but I don't know the way... It looks like a labyrinth below, how should I go..."

Silas threw the corpses of the soldiers into the water, and then moved on: "If only I could find the mage, I don't have to be so passive..."

Silas was well aware of his abilities.

his innate ability.

He is not a mage, but is very sensitive to magic, he cannot create magic by himself, but he can absorb magic from outside.

Sylas can absorb even the magic of other mages.

But now it is naturally impossible for a mage to send to the door to let Silas absorb the magic, he can only fight with the flesh.

Silas looked for his way through the sewers like a headless fly, and after a while, he did find it.

Silas saw the exit of the sewer, and the light outside revealed a view of fields and mountains.

"The sewers really lead to the outside of Xiongdu! You are my goddess of luck in the low light! This will be fine." Silas was so excited that even after fifteen years in the dark, his eyes would see the light outside. It felt a little stinging, but Silas accepted the stinging joyfully, which showed that he was finally free. "Wait... Demacia... I will kill it... It's not over yet."

Silas ran for the exit, he couldn't wait to get some fresh air, he couldn't wait to soak up the sun, he couldn't wait to get drenched in the rain, and he couldn't wait to be blown by the wind, and he couldn't wait to make up for the gradual loss of fifteen years of captivity. External memories faded in the mind.

But before Silas could go out, he saw two slender figures standing at the entrance.

"Twilight?" Silas squinted his eyes, adjusting to the light of the outside world, and he could see Lux's figure clearly, "Will it be you? Great! Did you come to see me?"

Silas rushed over, and when he couldn't wait to give Lux a hug, he saw a light in Lux's hand, and a beam of light was thrown at Silas.

Silas couldn't dodge, was struck by the light, and found himself immobile, imprisoned by Lux's light.

"Shimmer! What are you doing?" Silas looked at Lux incomprehensible.

"Silas..." Lux looked at him with a complicated expression, "You took advantage of me, didn't you?"

Silas smiled apologetically at Lux: "I'm sorry, Shimmer, I admit that it's my fault that I wanted to escape without you, but I know that your character is too conservative, and you won't give it to you if you tell me. I've lost all your light, this matter is my fault, and I will compensate you."

"What compensation do you have!" Lux shouted, "You killed! You killed a lot of Demacian soldiers while you escaped! How do you make up for those lost lives?"

"Huh?" Silas tilted his head. "Shimmer, is this what a mage should say?"
