The Void Walker in American Comics.

Chapter 479 Heading to Zaun
"Zuan? Interesting..."

A white-haired man was looking at the information in his hand, with a slight smile on his face.

During this period, Noxus received a batch of special potions from Zaun, which greatly enhanced the combat effectiveness of Noxus' frontline fighters.

Although the soldiers who use the potion will become exhausted and need recuperation after the effect of the potion wears off, during the period of the effect of the potion, these soldiers are all worth ten men at once.

He was very interested in the efficacy of such medicine, and he had also heard a little about the place called Zaan.

"No wonder Zaun has been in such a commotion recently. It turns out that garbage dump has become a new technological city. Now someone is going to have a headache."

Swain didn't have any thoughts about the changes in Zaun. Although he sought knowledge, he didn't need to collect everything.

What he wants is the knowledge of magic, the knowledge of manipulating demons, and the knowledge that can make Noxus grow stronger.

As for technology, although these things can enhance the combat capabilities of soldiers, they also make the soldiers themselves their biggest weakness.

Darkwill, who was kicked off the throne by him, was such a person. Although he seemed to hold the highest power, he was just a puppet in the hands of the Black Rose.

"Increase orders to Zaun. We want all their products!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a dark shadow appeared behind him.

"In Piltover..."

The shadow asked in a low voice. After all, they didn't have many manpower in Zaun, but they had their own people in Piltover.

"Just do your job and ignore them. Since Piltover can't help us, we don't need to consider their ideas."

"understand!"

As he spoke, the shadow disappeared, and soon after, a raven flew out of the Immortal Bastion and flew towards Zaun.

Demacia City-State
In the meeting hall of Dawn Castle
"The Noxian army's offensive is becoming more and more fierce. I'm afraid we can't resist it."

Garen, the general, said in a solemn voice that since he returned from Freljord, he led his troops to the front line.

At the beginning, they were able to deal with Noxus with the power of the Forbidden Magic Stone and Silver Steel, but gradually, unexpected things happened to the Noxian warriors. They didn't know what they had eaten, but they became extremely ferocious one by one.

Normally, they only needed a few people to defend a section of the city wall, but now they needed several times the original number of people.

You have to know that these are just ordinary Noxian troops, not elite troops. Even so, they are a little difficult to resist. It is hard to imagine what the performance would be like if Noxus transferred its elite troops from the expedition.

And this is what he is most anxious about now. If Noxus had not been making corrections after the attack, he would not have had time to ride the dragon bird back to discuss with everyone.

"What exactly happened? You've been frowning since you got back."

As good friends who grew up together, Jarvan IV looked at each other quietly. Now the whole Demacia was in chaos, and they absolutely could not continue to be in chaos.

Zhao Xin, who was standing aside, was leaning against a pillar holding a spear, and he was also waiting for Garen's answer.

"The Noxian soldiers drank a potion that greatly improved their combat effectiveness. Except for their slightly inferior combat experience, they are almost the same as the elite in other aspects."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the conference hall was shocked. Just by drinking a potion, an ordinary soldier could become comparable to an elite fighter. This was unimaginable to them.

"You mean we can't stop it?"

"No!" Garen shook his head. "It's strange. Their state didn't last long, and after the attack, they are still in the process of correcting it."

These words made everyone realize that although the potion was powerful, it was not perfect.

Both the efficacy and side effects are a huge problem.

But this is still a serious problem. Even if those soldiers cannot fight for a long time, the deterrent effect on them is still huge.

"Speaking of which, I came back this time to discuss with everyone. I want to send someone to Zaun."

"Zuan? Where are you going?"

Jarvan IV frowned and asked, as the general of Demacia, why would Garen want to send people to Zaun if he didn't think about how to resist the attack of Noxus?
But Galen remained firm, and he looked at everyone solemnly.

"Remember the news I brought back from the Freljord?"

"You mean to find the person who solved the void?"

Hearing his question, Zhao Xin, who was standing aside, reacted.

He still remembered what Garen said to them when he came back. Even the Void Watchers, who were resisted by the three demigods of the Freljord, were like pets that could be manipulated at will in front of the man who mastered the power of ice.

However, he was very skeptical about such words. Although the Void in Freljord was dealt with very quickly, that was the Void Watcher. How could anyone defeat it so easily?

However, compared to his doubts, Jarvan IV's eyes lit up.

The other party once said that I could come to him with the badge, which means that he is in Zaun.

Although they did not have the badge given by the other party, he believed that as long as he took out the most precious resources of Demacia, he would be able to persuade the other party to take action.

After all, Demacia's Forbidden Magic Stone and Silver Steel are well-known all over the world, and he believes that the other party can definitely help them.

"Okay, but who are you going to let go?"

"Lacus! My sister."

Garen answered without hesitation, in fact, he had selfish motives in choosing Lux.

In Demacia, a country that rejects magic, mastering magic is the original sin. What's more, not long ago, Jarvan III was assassinated by a magician and died.

There is no way Demacia would accept a magician, not to mention that their king was assassinated by a magician.

In such an environment, his sister Lux, who possessed extremely high magical talent, became the target of public criticism. Once it was revealed that she possessed magical powers, she would be regarded as a heretic by everyone.

The only way to protect my sister is to get her away from Demacia and go to Zaun.

Moreover, that strong man is in Zaun, so Lux doesn't have to worry about any danger when she goes there. If she can get help from the other party, maybe she can even resolve the crisis brought by Noxus.

After staring at Garen for a while, Jarvan IV nodded slowly.

"Okay, let's do this. My father has passed away, and I must do a few big things to strengthen my subjects' trust in me. Demacia needs a few victories!"

After Jarvan IV agreed, Garen breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Jarvan IV, who had not yet ascended the throne, agreed, the matter would be mostly settled.

However, thinking back to his eccentric sister, Garen also had a headache.

"I hope Lux won't refuse. This is all for her." After the meeting, Jarvan IV began to mobilize the precious treasures in the treasury. He didn't know what the unknown powerful man needed, so he could only select some very precious treasures.

After all, Garen said that the strong man had learned some things about magic from a great wizard.

Although magic is prohibited in Demacia, it is not without magical treasures. After all, they have hunted down many magicians, and they also have many treasures that are comparable to magical treasures.

While Jarvan IV was choosing treasures, Garen also returned home and went straight to the room where his sister was.

"Lacus, I have something to tell you."

After a burst of noise in the room, Lux opened the door with messy hair.

"Brother, what's the matter?"

Looking at his sister playing dumb, Garen couldn't help but hold his forehead. This girl still thought that her family didn't know that she mastered magic, and everyone just didn't want to point it out. But now he had to point it out.

"Let's talk after we go in."

Galen walked into his sister's boudoir and sat down on a chair that made a creaking sound.

"You can do magic, right?"

Without asking, he revealed his sister's secret.

He picked up the book on the desk, and a small book about magic appeared in his hand.

"No... No, I'm just researching how to better destroy magic."

Even though her brother found out the evidence, Lux still didn't tell the truth, for she knew very well how Demacia treated magicians.

"Don't hide it. You are the only one in the family who thinks you are good at hiding." Although he said so, Garen still had a look of admiration on his face. "But after you go out, you must disguise yourself well. Don't use magic unless it is absolutely necessary!"

"Uh uh... out? Where to?"

While dealing with the problem randomly, Lux suddenly found the key.

Normally, even if she went out, her family would not specifically tell her to go out. But now her brother actually said he was going out, so he must be going somewhere far away, and she was the one who wanted to go.

"We have discussed this in the council chamber before. You will secretly go to Zaun on behalf of Demacia to find that mysterious strong man."

Lux had heard of the mysterious powerful man in Zaun. After all, it was her brother who brought back the news.

"Let me go?"

Lux's face was full of disbelief. You know, he had never left Mithril City, let alone outside Demacia.

"Yes, I will let you go. I will send someone to protect you, and you need to disguise yourself as a caravan and leave Demacia."

This is the only way to leave Demacia. After all, Demacia borders Noxus. If they want to leave, they must disguise themselves.

a few days later

A caravan walked out of Mithril City and marched towards Zaun.

"We really have to go to Zaun. I wonder if that person is willing to help us."

In the carriage, Lux looked at the scenery outside the window and muttered to herself.

This caravan was sent by the royal family. It was a real caravan. The only difference was that the guards of the caravan were all elite guards sent by the royal family.

However, they all had one thing in common: they didn't know the significance of this caravan going to Zaun, and why Lux, who was being escorted by them, chose to go to Zaun.

"How long will we be gone?"

After looking at the scenery for a while, Lux asked the person outside the car window.

"It will take about ten days for us to reach the port, then we can take a ship to Shurima, and then go to Zaun from Shurima."

The reason for choosing this route is, on the one hand, because the road leading directly to Zaun is within the territory of Noxus, which they may not be able to pass through; on the other hand, it is because they are not proficient in naval battles, and compared to the dangerous sea, land is always more reassuring.

"I see, it's that far away."

She had also seen the map of Demacia's territory hanging in her brother's room. She had originally thought that the nearest port would not take long to reach, but it turned out to take a full ten days. This gave her a new understanding of Demacia's territory.

She didn't know exactly how long the journey would take, but she was not in a hurry at all now, because there was no one else in the carriage except her. She could study magic at will, and as long as she didn't make any noise, no one else would notice.

Thinking of this, Lux took out a thick magic book from her backpack. This was what she had been studying for a long time, and now was a good time to continue her research.

……

"Ah~"

Mu En stretched out his body, making crackling sounds all over and letting out a groan. He hadn't felt so comfortable for a long time.

During this period, she studied a lot of armor. Except for some armors with purer power that were easier to determine the plane of promotion, all other armors gave her a headache without exception.

Not to mention anything else, even for a battle armor like Chroma [Raging Flame Dragon Rider], he didn't even know what plane to fuse with in order to advance.

After all, this armor possesses four kinds of power, but the power of a plane may not reach four kinds, and these four kinds of power must match the power of the armor.

Fortunately, during the research process, he accidentally strengthened his equipment, which made him feel a little comforted.

Although he has not enhanced many equipments now, these enhanced equipments are enough for him to use.

"Come to think of it, using Aye Essence to strengthen the equipment and upgrade them to Prime [Sacred Equipment Grade] really exceeded my expectations."

As he spoke, a palm-sized flying disc appeared in Mu En's hand. This was the battle blade after his promotion and it was his most commonly used weapon.

He held the war blade and exerted a little force. The war blade, which originally looked like a flying disc, suddenly changed drastically. Three sheaths extended from the flying disc, and a sharp blade popped out from each sheath.

The blade was so sharp that it cut through the air the moment it popped out, making a quick and sharp whistling sound.

"Now, let alone using the armor, even with just the equipment, I can fight against the dimensional demons."

As he spoke, he pressed lightly on the sword again, and the sharp blade was instantly retracted, turning into a palm-sized plate in the blink of an eye.

"I didn't expect that after so much time, this battle blade could still help me."

With these upgraded equipment, it will be easier to upgrade the armor, and the upgraded battle blade will also be a terrifyingly powerful artifact.
