Runeterra is so much fun!

Chapter 227 Ask
Hearing Ruiz's words again, and hearing the undisguised determination in his words, Yuan Chen felt helpless.

Ryze's character is not to say stubborn. In fact, it can be confirmed from many stories that he has not lost his humanity.

But when it comes to certain issues, no matter how many reasons and reasonableness others have, Ruiz will not let his emotions get involved at all.

In psychology, this is considered a form of self-protection, self-isolation, and a means of coping to avoid trouble and disputes.But it is obvious that this psychological defense mechanism must pay a huge price.

Thinking about it, Yuan Chen said: "Your behavior is correct... there is no doubt about it. But, besides this, there are other choices, but you ignore them."

After speaking, Yuan Chen paused and added: "In the process of saving the world, you always try to carry the burden alone, without even letting others know..."

After hearing Yuan Chen's words, Ruiz seemed to want to say something.But before Ruiz could speak, Yuan Chen on the side added:

"I know what you are thinking... Ordinary people cannot bear this pain and weight. Those knowledge and mysteries that exceed the limits of ordinary people will only deepen their pain and helplessness. But I have to say... you are too arrogant."

After hearing Yuan Chen's evaluation of himself, Ruiz opened his mouth, with a hint of silence between his brows.

He had just thought about Yuan Chen's opinion of him. Even when Yuan Chen said that he might be his "enemy" before, Ruiz could quickly understand it.

But now, hearing the word "arrogant" being used on him, Ruiz felt a little confused for no reason.

"I'm... arrogant?" After saying that, he glanced at Yuan Chen, and Ruiz couldn't help but said strangely:
"Are you trying to deflect my thoughts in this way?"

"No, it's just arrogance."

Yuan Chen said: "You think that no one in this world can bear the pain caused by the truth like you. You also think that no one can travel to save the world like you. Do you feel that you have a world on your shoulders?" …But you refuse someone to share your burden with you. Because you don’t think they’re qualified.”

"This is just your speculation and delusion." Ruiz shook his head, not indignant or having any unnecessary emotional expression.He just said calmly:
"Your accusation is meaningless. It is just a guess based on a little knowledge of me. I once thought that you were a fellow traveler like me, but the facts proved that I was wrong...

You are just a whimsical dreamer who knows nothing about this world.You have no idea how terrifying the crisis this world is facing is.Once it becomes known to outsiders, what cruel atrocities those desperate people, careerists and conspirators will commit! "

"Just like Blessed Light Island?"

"..."

After hearing Yuan Chen's words, Ruiz's eyes narrowed slightly, but then they returned to their original state and said silently:

"What do you know?"

“I know a lot and I’ve seen a lot.”

Yuan Chen looked into Ruiz's eyes.Although the eyes are the windows to the soul, in fact, even Yuan Chen has a hard time seeing anything from Ruiz's eyes... Those white eyes that have been filled with arcane energy are like a pool of dead water. No smell, no ripples, no waves, no life.

"I saw a young mage traveling around the world with his teacher. He was talkative and bold. He always thought that the teacher failed to teach him everything, or was unwilling to tap his full potential.

So after returning to his hometown, the little mage secretly went to the library, hoping to learn those powerful magics by himself, but everyone who was filled with hatred found out and was caught. ""The little mage listened to the words of the hated person and decided to make a deal with that person. The content of the transaction was that the little mage who was good at picking locks helped the person open a mechanism, and the person gave the little mage a book containing arcane magic. Book. "

"The little mage opened the mechanism, and there was a lot of water in it. The little mage took a sip, and then took away a bag to give to the person with hatred."

"Later, the little mage learned the knowledge in the book through continuous study. With a spell, the magic power in the little mage's body was activated, and a large number of runes were formed on the body surface. Even his eyes emitted light. With the light of arcane magic.”

"But this is just the beginning, because the water the little mage took out..."

Yuan Chen spoke peacefully, although he didn't say who the little mage was, but only Yuan Chen, Ruiz, and Qiyana were present.Even if they didn't say it clearly, everyone present knew who they were talking about.

And Ryze, just listening, his forehead was already covered with cold sweat.An arc of light flashed across a pair of pale eyes from time to time, and eventually turned into numbness and pain. He couldn't help but trembled and said:
"That's enough! What happened on Fuguang Island has nothing to do with now!"

"It's not Blessing Island, it's Shadow Island." Yuan Chen corrected with a calm expression and a calm tone: "It's you who got him a new name, right?"

"It's just a name, it has no meaning."

Ruiz's face turned cold and determined again: "What I want to fulfill is my current mission. You don't have to understand it however you want, you can't stop me."

"You also said you weren't arrogant."

Hearing this, Yuan Chen also shook his head with some emotion:

"You think that you have endured those sufferings that others cannot bear. In order not to involve others, not to involve others, and not to let the disasters you bring harm others, you face the many sufferings hidden in the corners of the world alone. .

I'm not questioning your character, I'm even saying that, in my opinion, you are the person most worthy of being called a "hero" in the world. "

Yuan Chen explained: "It's not for your own selfish desires, but because you don't want the world to overturn, and you don't want others to suffer the same pain as yourself. But sometimes, you despise the world too much."

"If you reject others in an indifferent way, you can certainly prevent others from bearing this hidden crisis and reduce their pain. But isn't this a shackle that limits your ability to establish a deep connection with the world?"

Yuan Chen explained: "Loneliness and the pain caused by social isolation are secondary, but you also ignore the original power of this world... You are not the only one who wants to save the world, but you disdain the bravery and sacrifice of others. Gu."

"I know, just as I think you are arrogant, you also think I am naive. It's just that you don't even bother to argue with me."

Yuan Chen shook his head, feeling a little frustrated at the silent Ruiz in front of him... He just stood there.His attitude toward Yuan Chen's words was "Oh, I get it."

Then it's gone.

"Then let me ask you a question."

Yuan Chen said: "How long has it been since you last seen the sentries?"
