Chapter 212 Galen’s departure
“Devil power?”
Huo Jixing slowly bent over and stared at the hideous wound.
Under the charming white collarbone, a strange scar about three feet long appeared on the snow-white skin.
Normal scars will have flesh and blood curled up, and there will be blood scab condensation on the edges.
But the strange scar in front of him was red in the center, but there was black energy lingering around the edge.
“No, that’s not right!”
“This doesn’t seem to be the power of the devil?”
Huo Jixing frowned. The black energy in front of him was different from what he had encountered before. Demonic powers are very similar.
However, under his careful observation, he still found subtle differences.
"This is pure dark energy."
Huo Jixing's eyes flashed and he thought to himself.
Katrina's injury has been delayed for too long. The dark energy on the scar is corroding the flesh and blood, and is eroding along the collarbone.
If it weren't for Katarina's suppression with her own power and the healing from the previous potion.
The erosion of the scars will be even more terrifying now.
Huo Jixing didn't say much. He slowly stretched out his fingers, and the green light filled the fingertips.
Katrina looked at Huo Jixing's movements with a slightly struggling expression.
When Francis came over just now, he described Huo Jixing’s healing ability to her.
It has the terrifying effect of raising dead human flesh and white bones.
The reason why Catalina agreed to let Huo Jixing come over and give it a try.
Because the scars she suffered cannot be solved by ordinary healing abilities.
After assassinating Jarvan III, she could only rely on the secret family potion to suppress it, but it could not stop the erosion of dark energy.
“Uh-huh!”
Katrina snorted, her expression getting paler.
Huo Jixing seemed not to have heard it and still approached the scar with his finger.
The black energy that was almost integrated with the scar seemed to feel threatened, and suddenly rose up to meet the green light at the fingertips.
Chichi! Chichi!
A subtle sound of burning sounded.
The black energy and the green light blended and disappeared, causing Catalina's body to tremble.
“Bear it!”
Huo Jixing didn't even raise his head, his eyes fixed on the black energy.
Compared to the endless Donghua Yimu Qi in his body.
These black energies are like rootless roots, gradually disappearing under the impact.
“Interesting.”
He looked at the black energy that had continued to collapse, thinking.
Human emotions and desires are the source of demonic power.
So how did the pure dark energy in front of you appear?
"Uh-huh!"
When the dark energy was completely eliminated, Catalina couldn't bear it again and made a muffled sound.
She lowered her eyes and looked at Huo Jixing, who was staring at her collarbone and chest. A hint of crimson appeared on his cold face.
But seeing Huo Jixing's serious and clear eyes, she suppressed her inner emotions.
It’s just that the blush on my cheeks never fades.
“The last step!”
Huo Jixing spoke softly, stretched out his fingers towards the scarlet wound, and brushed it gently.
Only a moment.
Under Donghua Yimu's energy, the ferocious scars gradually healed without leaving any traces.
Huo Jixing stood up and looked at Catalina. He was a little confused when he saw the crimson color on her cheeks.
Then he lowered his eyes and looked at the white greasy face, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
“Are you healed?”
When Catalina saw Huo Jixing getting up, she asked in a firm tone without looking at her wounds.
"No problem, but you are running low on blood. Let Francis make some broth." Huo Jixing made some suggestions.
Hearing this, Catalina lowered her head and looked relaxed when she saw the clavicle without any trace.
Then, she quickly put on her clothes and silver shoulder pads.
“Thank you for your help this time.”
Katrina’s tone was no longer as cold as before, she looked at Huo Jixing and said, “When I am completely recovered, I will be with you. Leave.”
She understood that Huo Jixing's secret mission was to help her leave the capital of Demacia.
"Are there any matters that have not been settled yet?"
Huo Jixing understood the meaning of Catalina's words. She was not ready to leave Xiongdu now.
“Someone is already eyeing the Lesser Guard Secret Base.”
“To be precise, it should be you.”
"I understand." Catalina moved her arms gently, her eyes cold.
"It won't waste much time. I just have some things that I need to confirm."
On the night when Jarvan III was assassinated, she was indeed preparing to assassinate him, but in Castle Dawn, there were more than just One person wanted Jarvan III to die unexpectedly.
“Wait a few more days.”
Katrina pulled out the dagger from her waist, and a biting cold light suddenly appeared, soaking in the air.
[Sawtooth Dagger]!
Huo Jixing raised his eyebrows and recognized the name of the dagger in Catalina's hand.
This is recorded in the information of the Leiser Guard Corps.
The dagger in front of me is a rune weapon specially made for Catalina by General Du Cacault using his own resources.
"Then I won't disturb your rest."
Huo Jixing spoke softly, turned and left the room.
In the quiet room, Catalina stared at Huo Jixing's leaving back, brushing her fingers over her collarbone, her eyes twinkling.
Huo Jixing's previous extraordinary power was a star-like talent, mastering the power of fire.
But the healing ability displayed now is no less impressive and very terrifying.
“General Darius is in very good hands.”
As a high-ranking officer of the Leiser Guard Corps, Catalina knew that Huo Jixing was only temporarily seconded to the Leiser Guard Corps.
He still belongs to the Cuifali Legion.
Inside the cave.
As soon as Huo Jixing came out of the room, he saw Francis who had been waiting outside.
"How's it going?" Francis came over in a hurry.
"Don't worry, it's been taken care of." Huo Jixing didn't show off and spoke directly.
"That's good, that's good."
Francis's frown relaxed, and a smile appeared on his deep old face.
He was half a body behind Huo Jixing and said as he walked.
“We are ready to abandon this location and move to a new safe house.”
"But before leaving, we need to deal with the people outside, who may cause trouble to you."
Huo Jixing stopped and turned to look at Francis with a surprised expression.
“Have they found this place?”
“Not yet.” Francis shook his head slightly.
“But our hidden sentry found that someone was searching nearby with purpose.”
"It means they have almost locked this area, but they just can't find the specific location."
"Let me go and have a look." Huo Jixing said with a smile, looking above the cave, with a red-gold glow in his eyes. Light pervades.
"I have made some breakthroughs recently, and I can just test my strength."
"Huh? Sir, do you know their location?" Francis looked confused.
During this period, he witnessed Huo Jixing staying in the cave without leaving the house. "I don't know." Huo Jixing shook his head.
“But I just need to know who is secretly looking for someone!”
Francis’ heart became cold when he heard this, and he instantly understood the meaning of Huo Jixing’s words.
He is not an ordinary person. Even so, he still feels a bone-chilling chill invading his soul.
"Okay, you make the arrangements, I'll be out in a moment."
Huo Jixing patted Francis on the shoulder. Just as he was about to go back to the room, he seemed to think of something again and turned around and said.
"When Lady Katarina leaves, ask her to wait for me."
"Don't go out by yourself, come back injured."
He doesn't want to go out and deal with trouble by himself. When the guy was in trouble, Catalina acted secretly and came back injured, wasting time.
“Ah okay!”
Francis didn't react until Huo Jixing returned to the room.
Is the relationship between Miss Catalina and Master Huo Jixing already so good?
"Zhizhi! Zhizhi!"
As soon as he entered the room, the snow-white Poro hiding under the bed quickly ran over.
Like an arrow from the string, it quickly climbed along the leg to the shoulder.
It licked Huo Jixing's cheek, very affectionately.
However, Huo Jixing knew the character of this little guy and was not used to it. He picked up the plush body and stuffed it into his arms.
Then he took off the Red Fire Blade from the wall and hung it around his waist.
The Temple of Lightbringer is located in the heart of the capital of Demacia.
Next to Dawn Castle.
This is a majestic building made of silver-white marble.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the temple, casting a golden glow on the building complex, as if bathed in sacred light.
The dome of the temple emits a faint golden glow under the dusk glow. This glow flows like molten gold, shrouding the temple in a warm and mysterious halo.
This golden glow not only symbolizes purity and holiness, but is also the unique symbol of the Lightbringer Temple.
On the front of the temple, stands a solemn statue of a soldier.
He holds a shield and looks forward firmly, as if he is always guarding this land.
The front of this shield is engraved with folded wings, with smooth lines and exquisite details.
It is rumored that these wings are the symbol of the Winged Protector, representing the sacred mission of guarding and defending the Kingdom of Demacia.
Inside the temple, in a quiet room lit by candlelight.
Kashina sat behind a quaint desk, with her mentor, Ms. Midir, in front of her.
She is a nun in the Temple of Lightbringer and a healer in the Order of the Illuminators.
"Teacher, can you confirm that that person has not left Xiongdu yet?" Kasina said respectfully.
Ms. Midier, the silver-haired old woman, looked at her disciple, a gleam of pure white light appeared in her deep eyes.
“I haven’t left yet.”
“Calculate the time carefully. If you can’t find a complete cure, maybe that person is already terminally ill.”
Hearing this, Kashina's eyes flickered, thinking of the messages she had recently intercepted.
"I have arranged for people to search in the direction of the drug. I think it will take a short time to get the results."
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Ms. Midier sighed inwardly. One breath.
“If they are really from the Noxus Empire, then the tense border situation will inevitably lead to renewed disputes.”
“Teacher, isn’t this what we want?” Kashin Na's eyes were fixed and she spoke in a solemn voice.
"Only war can make the old nobles truly understand."
"In the current Valoran continent, runes and magic are the most correct path."
"But not Now." Ms. Midier shook her head slightly.
“Although the Noxus Empire has fully reduced its defense lines, the war power they possess is far beyond what the current Kingdom of Demacia can compete with.”
“The most important thing is that Du The attitude of the Lang family is very ambiguous.”
"Dulang family!" Kashina's eyes narrowed and she looked at her teacher.
“Aren’t they seeking the power of runes and magic to study the carving techniques of forbidden magic stones?”
“Haha, these old foxes, who can know their true thoughts.”< br>
Ms. Midier sighed softly, as if she remembered something unpleasant.
“The carving skills of the Forbidden Demon Stone!”
"Even the temple cannot know the real core skills."
Kashina pondered for a while and mentioned again what she had mentioned earlier.
"Would you consider accepting Miss Crown Guard as your disciple?"
"With the power of the Crown Guard family, the Durang family will not be an obstacle to us."
"Laxana Crownguard!"
Upon hearing Lux's name, Ms. Midir fell into silence and finally spoke.
“I can’t be Miss Crown Guard’s teacher.”
“Why.”
Kashina wanted to ask why, but saw the solemnity on the teacher’s face , swallowed the subsequent words.
"Follow the drug channel and trace it as soon as possible." Ms. Midier said quietly.
"Prince Jarvan is once again in charge of the Silver Council, and the supreme power of the Kingdom of Demacia has returned to the Lightshield family."
"Perhaps your news will be a good gift."
"Okay. Yes, teacher." Kashina stood up, saluted, and left slowly.
At dusk, Kashina walked out of the Lightbringer Temple and looked back at the soldier statue behind her.
She saw every detail of the carvings, showing the profound heritage of Demacia culture and the power of faith, and she could feel the warmth and power brought by faith.
"Light will guide the Kingdom of Demacia to the path of justice."
Outside the capital of Demacia, winding rivers surround it.
Wearing a white stone armor, Galen stepped onto the dock and walked towards the waiting ship at the berth.
On the banks of the broad and gentle Iron Fork River, all members of the First Shield Formation of the Fearless Vanguard Legion marched in formation, forming a solemn scenery.
Galen walked in the front, followed by old friends such as Diadoru and Sebato.
Their steps were uniform and uniform, and they were fully armed with shining steel battle armor, with their sheathed swords slung at their waists and shields slung behind their backs.
Everyone carries heavy leather luggage, sleeping bags, water bags, rations and military equipment.
After walking through the last section of the pier, we came to a ship named Fengyu Tianming.
This is a falcon ship that can be easily maneuvered on shallow rivers and open seas.
The slender shape of the boat is like a white blade in the waves. Thirty oarsmen's chairs are placed across the pale hull, like ribs, and the oars are neatly stacked under the chairs.
The bow of the ship looks like a white raptor -
The traditional shape of all falcon ships, the hunting raptor spreads its wings and soars forward.
Galen stood on the bow of the ship, holding the judgment in his hand tightly, looking at the capital behind him.
Originally, he should have left long ago, but his close friend Prince Jarvan attended the Silver Council and was regaining control of the kingdom.
As the sword captain of the Fearless Vanguard Legion, he immediately went to see Prince Jiawen.
"Captain Jian, it's time for us to set off!" Diadoru walked by, his sharp eyes looking across the night sky towards Xiongdu.
They should not have left Xiongdu at this time.
But it was Grand Marshal Tyana Crownguard who gave the order, and everyone must follow it.
"Vanguard!" Galen took a deep breath, turned around and shouted.
“Paddle out!”
Every soldier of the Dauntless Vanguard Legion leaned forward uniformly, with the paddle completely submerged in the water.
“Pull!” Galen’s voice was loud.
The Fengyu Tianming shot out like a spear, splitting the waves of the Tiecha River.
