As the person who knows shadow magic best, he certainly knows what its disadvantages are.

But this is also the point Ryan wants to correct him.

Although this world has both technology and magic, the local indigenous people's way of thinking is more inclined towards the latter.

The simplest example is that after Syndra, who mastered dark magic, performed various strange operations, the locals instinctively believed that it was the dark magic that bewitched Syndra.

Furthermore, because dark magic is considered evil, Sindra is also seen as the embodiment of evil.

But they ignore the fact that for any child who has not yet formed sound logical thinking, if he rashly grasps a powerful force that is difficult to control and there is no one to provide correct guidance and education, the powerful and uncontrollable nature of the power will have an impact on the child.

It is not so much that the inherently evil dark magic led Syndra astray, but rather that the lack of relevant systems and teachings gave Syndra a wrong understanding of the world.

Ryan has a personal experience of this.

At least in his opinion, Sindra was a considerate woman.

She would even play roles that are extremely unfamiliar to her just to satisfy her own preferences.

Ryan is not as stupid as Riven.

He knew clearly that the 'weird behavior' in his dreams was not an accident, but a clumsy deliberate act.

So, to return the kindness.

In addition to cooperating hard with Syndra in the dream.

Ryan also wants to make all the bad comments about Syndra disappear.

It would be extremely inefficient to rely on him alone to "tell his own story" in order to change the group's mindset.

But if he could get shadow magic cleansed and brought ashore.

Those shadows will become the seeds that spread correct ideas.

They will be distributed everywhere to make people accept the correct ideas.

And then... he didn't need to show his dark magic in front of everyone. Those people only needed to listen to his story. Without the stereotype of darkness, they would know their past mistakes.

Syndra hasn't fully woken up yet.

But Ryan hopes that when she sees the world again, it will be filled with kindness.

Maybe Syndra didn't care.

But Ryan cared.

So he looked at the silent and thoughtful Zed and said:

"Do you know anything about the Gale Sword Sect?"

"Orthodox sect..."

"Then do you think that if an ordinary six-year-old child suddenly mastered the Gale Sword Technique, but this child had never undergone any systematic training or guidance, this child could still become as upright as a disciple of the orthodox Yufeng Sword School?"

"Hard to say......"

During the time he was capturing Jhin, Zed had some deep thoughts about human nature.

He knew that most children did not have a detailed concept of good and evil.

Their immaturity often leads them to take actions with dire consequences.

Ryan continued: “For example, if a child throws a leaf at you, it may be to attract your attention, and he has no malicious intention;

"But if this child mastered the Gale Sword Technique and slashed a tornado at you to get your attention...

"Perhaps he had no ill intentions, but the consequences were undoubtedly 'evil'. In that case, can we list the Gale Sword Technique as a forbidden technique?"

"You don't seem to be discussing shadow magic with me..." Jie heard something. As a local, he had heard the story of Sindra when he was a child.

"You should know that Sindra... If she had met a wise old man like Elder Suma when she first awakened to dark magic, perhaps she wouldn't have ended up in this situation now."

"What on earth do you want to do, clear her name?"

"You can understand it that way, but our goal is not just that. What I want to say is that shadow magic is the same as dark magic. There is no distinction between good and evil in power."

Ryan said bluntly: "Since we know that the world has misunderstandings about this, why should we follow this misunderstanding and tie our own hands, instead of using this power in an upright and fair way?

“Irelia’s grandmother said that the people’s eyes are sharp. When they discover that shadow magic is protecting them, they will understand that the so-called forbidden magic is nothing but a misunderstanding.

"Shadow magic has flaws, so we should avoid them and use them safely. With you in the Shadow Stream, you can help them avoid those dangers.

"Furthermore... the Noxians have learned that large-scale invasions don't work. Their future strategy may become small-scale disruptions. In this situation, intelligence is crucial!"

Lion revealed a little plot information, "I heard that their leader is getting information from the demons. Even the honor-oriented Noxians are willing to collude with demons for their empire, so why can't we use the 'forbidden magic' to protect Ionia?"

Ryan's last words undoubtedly touched Zed.

After all, in the original work, he came into contact with shadow magic in order to use a "special" way to realize his inner justice.

Since you have already crossed the red line once, why can't you cross it a second time?

Ryan looked at Jie's expression and said while the iron was hot:

"Think about the Noxians' behavior. Do you want to see Ionia become Noxus's backyard? Ionians will never be slaves!"

Chapter 134: There is also Naruto in the Rune Universe!

Ryan finally impressed Zed.

The Shadow Lord personally promised that he would build a team of scouts for Ionia that mastered shadow magic.

According to the discussion between Ryan and him, the initial decision was to directly select a group of people in the Shadow Stream who were willing to contribute to Ionia as the original members.

This group of people hardly need any additional training, they just need to familiarize themselves with the work content and they can be put to use immediately.

Later, we can recruit some talented young people from the brotherhood to join, upgrade those original members to captains, and slowly expand the team with each captain leading three new members.

Although this growth process takes time, it is conceivable that in the future there will be a group of 'ninjas' who master shadow magic and move swiftly on the battlefield.

Shadow Stream will also slowly transform from an organization into a village similar to Wuji Sword Village.

According to the Ionian custom, the village might be named after a natural element, such as the Hokage Village or the Tsuchikage Village.

And the master of this group of ninjas will be called... Shadow!

At that time, the Rune Universe will also have its own Naruto!

Ryan even wrote a slogan for the future Zed:

Wherever there are shadows, there is nature surrounding it.

Zed obviously had no idea what Ryan was thinking.

After the discussion, he quietly hid the bottle and said to Ryan:

"Now I have repaid that favor."

He still felt that Lion persuaded him not for Ionia, but probably 80% for Syndra.

But deep down in his heart he also has his own 'selfishness'.

After witnessing the end of Ku Shuo, he also felt a sense of fear.

If you always hide in the shadows, will you eventually become a ball of ash mixed with dust?

He didn't want to end up like that.

I don't want my original intention of protection to be gradually corrupted into destruction.

This may be the real reason that prompted Jie to decide to change!

"no problem!"

Ryan doesn't care about human feelings.

The pattern should be big.

Did Irelia ask for a favor when she was exploiting him?

No.

But it still doesn't affect her exploitation of others.

He felt that Jie was still a little old-fashioned, practicing some ancient creed.

Little do people know that young people nowadays can come up with eight hundred reasons when they want to ask someone to do something for them.

Watching the shadow slowly disappear in front of him.

Ryan turned around and looked behind him where the footsteps came from.

To his surprise, the person who came was actually an eggshell.

"Are you the guide?"

Ryan is skeptical.

He remembered that when Zed mentioned him in his intelligence, he said that this kid spent most of his time in town fantasizing about the future.

"Ah, I am... you know me?"

Ignat was a little flattered.

As far as he could remember, he had never had any direct contact with this great and powerful man.

"Of course I know you..."

Ryan asked with a strange look on his face, "Who asked you to come?"

"Elder Carlo."

"Him?" Ryan reasonably suspected that Carlo had discovered something, and then used this task to keep this guy away from his granddaughter.

After all, the other party was someone who could bring up the "public revenge" in front of Irelia.

"Yes, I told him. I know the fastest way to get to Weili... My grandmother lives over there."

"Okay, let's go now." Ryan did not doubt the young man's words.

"Now?"

"Time is very urgent..." Ryan looked at Ignat, "and if your grandmother also lives there, then she will be in more danger if we are late for one minute."

These words aroused Ignat's subjective initiative.

He borrowed the prepared carriage from Carlo.

After helping Irelia take control of the Brotherhood, Lion experienced the feeling of giving back for the first time.

They no longer need to measure every inch of Ionia with their feet, but can use their eyes instead of their legs.

......

......

Two days later, early morning.

The misty sea fog awakened the sleeping Ryan.

He hadn't felt this salty and wet feeling in a long time since leaving the seaside where he had lived for two years.

Although the humidity in the forest is also high, it lacks a sense of freedom.

Weili is also on the seaside.

But the terrain was different from the seaside Ryan was familiar with.

There are no sprawling golden beaches or gentle waves greeting you here.

Most of the places are steep cliffs. After countless years of being washed by the sea, they have gradually formed sharp shields, stubbornly resisting the impact of the waves, and then fiercely tearing every wave into pieces.

There are also some places that have been slowly pushed into low reefs by the persistence of the waves. They were originally restricted areas for merchant ships, as the sharp rocks could slide down any hull.

But with the efforts of generations of Ionians, those reef areas gradually became "flat".

The locals lack fertile soil to grow food, but the spirit of Ionia always gives them another way.

The hardness of the reef once made them miss good opportunities, but the hardness of the reef now gives them a harbor strong enough to carry heavy objects.

Ionia has never severed its ties with the outside world.

The rich resources and scarce items here have made it a treasure in the eyes of merchants in the Pan-Valoran continent many years ago.

The merchant ships docked here come from various countries and regions.

According to common sense, Noxus would not be so cruel as to destroy this place.
