Chapter 370 You Don’t Know the Real Threat to the World at All

Zoe's words just made Riz snort like a sneer, without refuting.

"If you want to talk, you can't do it here." He stared coldly at the two people above him.

"Well, I don't think this is the right place either." Li Lin took Zoe's hand and said, "Can you open another portal? Let's go to the beach where we were at the beginning."

"Eh? Don't you want these world runes?"

Li Lin glanced at Ryze, who had a wary face, "Let's not talk about that now."

Zoe hesitated for a moment and didn’t pay much attention, “Well, okay!”

The external objects such as world runes have limited effects and can only be used to their maximum effect in Rune Land, and are of no use to her.

As long as Li Lin is happy, she actually doesn't care.

Zoe's fingers jumped dexterously, astral magic overflowed from her fingertips, and soon a portal was formed again.

The opposite side is just outside the Castle of Dawn, on the coast of the Sea of ​​Conqueror.

Ryze's eyes widened, and an inexplicable palpitation filled his heart.

This kind of portal is an extremely high-end magic. Even the top arcane mage in the world, himself, cannot do this at all.

I heard that the ancient Shurima Empire had similar portal magic, but that empire has been under the yellow sand for too long, so it’s not necessarily true or false.

Just when Ryze's thoughts were confused and he couldn't help but feel filled with emotion, a golden halo suddenly appeared in front of him.

Li Lin and Zoe, who had already crossed the portal in the sky, were now standing on the seaside hundreds of kilometers away.

"Do you want to come over? It's very tiring to maintain the portal!" Zoe urged from the other side.

A slight hesitation flashed across Ryze's face, and he looked back at the world runes that had returned to silence.

My energy is almost exhausted now. Could it be that they want to take this opportunity to trick me and then come back to steal the world runes...

As soon as this thought came to his mind, he shook his head to dismiss it.

Just like what Li Lin said just now, they are fully capable of snatching the runes in front of them, and there is no need to do so.

Ryze gritted his teeth and stepped directly through the portal.

In the blink of an eye, the sea breeze with a hint of salty smell came to my face.

This was not the first time Ryze had teleported, but this was the first time he had teleported without a blur of consciousness and some miscellaneous physiological reactions.

There is magic in the air, and the lost mana in his body is quickly recovering.

Ryze took a deep breath, still maintaining full vigilance, and took a few steps back to distance himself from Li Lin and Zoe.

Why did this guy's armor suddenly disappear again?

He felt extremely confused and said coldly: "What do you want to talk about?"

Li Lin did not answer his question for the time being, but looked up at the dark night sky with the silver moon hanging high.

Ruiz frowned, "I don't have time..."

But before he could finish his words, he saw a mechanical behemoth that was at least several meters wide and several meters high falling from the sky.

It was Li Lin who came all the way back to Demacia to provide adequate logistical support just in case - a morning light filled with food and water.

Ryze had never seen such a strange and novel-looking mechanical creation before. He secretly poured magic power into his body, ready to use the supreme secret technique he had learned over his lifetime... to run away.

The expected danger did not appear. When Li Lin opened the huge mechanical device, his sensitive nose smelled the aroma of food.

Li Lin took out two sealed transparent glass bottles with the universal characters of the two cities from the morning light, which contained brownish-yellow liquid.

With the shaking caused by his movements, the liquid in the glass bottle produced a few tiny bubbles.

Ryze easily recognized what it was, and the magic he prepared suddenly disappeared, and he asked in surprise: "Beer?"

"Piltover's specialty light beer is made from Ionia. It should suit your taste better."

Li Lin tossed it casually, and the glass bottle drew a parabola in the air.

Ruiz, who was still slightly dazed, subconsciously reached out to take it, and the icy bottle landed accurately in his hand.

It's still ice?

Ruiz looked at Li Lin in surprise, who easily opened the bottle cap with his thumb and took a big sip of beer into his mouth.

“It’s still refreshing to drink cold!”

"I want to drink too!" Zoe shouted from the side.

"No, children can't drink."

"Well! I've grown up!" She made a dissatisfied nasal sound and retorted in a long tone, "Also, you know that I was born for more than a thousand years, and you still call me a child?"

"Uh..." Li Lin couldn't refute, "But this is very similar to champagne, and you don't like the taste."

He thought for a while, then took out a bottle of marble soda from the morning light, opened the cap and inserted a straw into it.

"Soda!"

Zoe's eyes lit up, she stretched out her hand and snapped her fingers. The soda in Li Lin's hand disappeared instantly and appeared in her hand the next second.

During the days when she lived in Piltover, after this little girl tried soda, she almost never accepted pure boiled water again.

Li Lin reluctantly put down his empty hand, "No one will snatch it from you."

Then, he looked in the direction of Ritz again and chuckled: "What? Are you worried that I poisoned it?"

"Hmph, ordinary poisons are useless to me."

As if he had recovered from his fantasy, Ryze's tone was no longer as cold as before, but instead was full of warmth.

A purple electric light flashed across his fingertips, and he popped open the metal bottle cap pressing on the mouth of the bottle. He raised his head and took a big gulp of wine into his mouth.

As the familiar taste bursts on the taste buds and the cold liquid sinks into the stomach, a sense of clarity spreads throughout the body, as if a lot of physical and mental fatigue has been reduced.

Even if it’s just once, I want a good night’s sleep…

Ruiz's heart stopped, and a bit of confusion and fatigue flashed in his eyes.

But soon, various images appeared in his mind again.

What happened to his hometown on the other side of the Noxi Mountains, his master Tyrus, and the young man he saved in the Freljord, his only apprentice Keegan Noho... Today's revenge Flame Soul Brand.

Ryze shook his head, putting aside the weariness in his heart, and became determined again.

"Thank you for the beer." His tone had completely calmed down. He raised his head and looked at Li Lin. "What exactly do you want to say? Can you hurry up? I have other places to go."

"If you are in a hurry to find the world runes, I can help you."

Ruiz frowned tightly, and the good impression she had just had on him instantly dissipated, "Hey, you want to help?"

His tone became colder again, "Get away, it will be of great help to me."

"It seems that you still don't understand. I actually have no idea about the world runes."

Well...at this stage.

Li Lin added another sentence in his heart.

"Do you think I believe your lies?" Riz pulled the scroll strap on his shoulder. "Everyone who knows the runes and tries to get close to me says so."

Li Lin couldn't help but feel tired. This old mage was really ignorant on the topic of world runes.

"If you think I am an evil person, trying to dominate the world with world runes..."

"I didn't say that. You said it yourself."

Li Lin ignored Ruiz and continued to think about himself: "Then I want to ask one thing. In fact, now that I have the ability to dominate the world, why didn't I do it?"

"Oh yes yes...you can dominate the world."

Ruiz no longer knew how to describe her current mood.

He paused for a moment, and then said in a sarcastic tone: "When you are busy saving the world, everyone wants to chat with you for a long time, especially those stupid guys who don't know the heights of the sky."

"Hey! You are such a bad old man, you are not allowed to scold Li Lin!" Zoe shouted at him angrily after drinking the soda, "He is the one who can fight Fiddlesticks, the original demon. Can you do it? ?”

"Fiddlesticks..." Ryze's pupils shrank, "If I were you, I wouldn't say that name casually, girl!"

"I'm not a girl, I've grown up!"

Li Lin quickly grabbed Zoe, who was waving her fists in protest, fearing that she would be unhappy later, and summoned an arcane meteorite to hit Ryze.

"Okay, okay, you have grown up and you shouldn't get angry with others over this kind of thing."

After comforting Zoe a little, he said to Ryze: "I did fight Fiddlesticks, but it was not as exaggerated as Zoe said, because I could only protect myself, but Zoe was the one who sealed it."

"What?! It's sealed?" Ryze couldn't help exclaiming in a low voice, "That's the head of the top ten demons!"

"So what? Don't forget that all original demons are sealed by the stars!"

Zoe's retort made Riz shut up.

These things were not even recorded on Blessed Light Island, so he really didn't understand them.

"The fear demon is sealed in the Hengfeng Village at the southwest foot of Eternal Peak on the border of Demacia. You should be able to feel the aura of black magic there as soon as you arrive."

Li Lin was not worried at all that Ryze would release the demon. After all, he was also the guardian of mankind, and it was impossible for an ancient threat to return to the material realm.

Moreover, there are a large number of mechanical troops guarding it.

Li Lin squeezed Zoe's hand to calm down her excitement, and continued: "On the border of Demacia a while ago, you must have heard about Prince Jarvan IV."

Ruiz remained silent and did not speak, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.

"If you don't believe it, you can ask Morgana, one of the Winged Protector Sisters of Demacia. She is currently a guest at Dawn Castle.

"Oh, by the way, one more thing. I was the one who killed the flame dragon Iva who caused trouble on the border before."

Looking at the solemn and disbelieving expression on Ruiz's face, Li Lin chuckled: "Of course it's the same thing. If you don't believe it, you can ask any soldier who guards the Great Wall, especially the dragon bird. Troop scout.

"The steel giant that disappeared with the dragon's body in its arms and was at least a hundred meters high was designed by me and built by me and Piltover University."

"What exactly do you want to express? Do you want to say that this is your confidence to dominate the world? Do you want to use this to convince me to get the world runes?"

Ryze narrowed his eyes, "Power will change everyone. One person cannot control this power for a long time! Including me, even I am not worthy of this 'guarding' responsibility.

"I have heard that the kingdom was destroyed, and that everything was reduced to nothing in just a moment! These are all brought about by the runes of the world.

"You should feel lucky, because you have not experienced that dark age, and you still have a lot of time to enjoy life... But once you come into contact with runes, everything will be different."

Ryze took a deep breath and said in the tone of a wise man warning his juniors: "Human beings are sometimes stupid, but I am also a member of the human race, so I must protect my compatriots! My fight is for you!"

"If I didn't bother to care at all, all this would be very easy." His expression was gloomy, "The world's runes were abused by stupid people in power, the entire rune land fell apart, and human civilization was completely destroyed..."

"You are wrong, Ryze." Li Lin didn't give him a chance to finish his sentence, "World Runes are not human civilization, nor are they the real threats to Rune Land. You have no idea what the real threats our world is facing are. .”

"It seems that you know these things very well?" Ruiz asked in a sarcastic tone.

Li Lin just shook his head, "Do you know what caused Shurima, an ascended empire, to be destroyed in one fell swoop?

"I guess you want to say Xerath? This is a legend that most Shurima people have heard of, and they all think that he is the culprit that caused Shurima's collapse... But this is only the direct reason, not the fundamental reason. reason."

Li Lin stared at Ryze across from him with a serious face, opened his lips slightly, and uttered a difficult word: "The void... is the ultimate threat we face."
