The lone wolf of Freyrdrand

four hundred and sixty-ninth the vassal state audience

“Welcome, my people, sons and daughters of the great Shurima!” Queen Setaka began her speech.

She didn’t yell, she just spoke normally, but her voice could be heard far away, Luo ThirtyIt felt as if she was speaking right in front of her.

“Get up, people of the sun, let us bask in the glory of the sun!” Setaka said.

The kneeling people stood up one after another, and Luo Sa suddenly felt a burst of dazzling light at the moment when he raised his head. On the high-hanging sun disc, the dazzling sunlight was reflected by the disc onto the square, and Luo Sa suddenly felt his body was full of Gaining strength, it seems that there is endless energy.

The people seemed to feel such power, and they sang hymns praising the sun in unison.

“This is the power of the sun disc…” Luo Sa recalled the ascension ceremony that Mai Yisha told him, it was a ceremony in which the sun disc concentrated the power of the sun on the human body, “the power of the sun spread to so many people It is so obvious on the body, if it is concentrated on one person… no wonder the Ascendants are so powerful.”

Setaka’s speech was very simple and clear. She didn’t deliberately talk about her achievements or anything else. She just said a few ceremonial words concisely, and then let Nasus take a step forward.

“I thought she was going to talk for a long time…” Luo Sa looked at the reactions of the ascenders, each of them stared at Setaka, even the raven twins stopped staring at Luo Sa, Instead, looking at their queen made Luo Sa a lot more relaxed. It was not a pleasant experience to be stared at by two ascenders with unknown intentions.

Nasus, who is a Grand Master, first bowed to Setaka and saluted. He held a long staff and ax in his hand, which was a symbol of intelligence and strength, showing his noble status as both a Grand Master and an Ascended Person.

“Next! Follow the Queen’s orders! Please come to the stage to offer envoys from all countries who have also been blessed by the sun!” Nasus said.

Luo Sa, who had already learned about the celebration process in advance, knew that the vassal states from the Shurima Empire would pay tribute next.

The first vassal delegation took the lead to reach the first platform at the bottom. They could only stop here, and they could not share the stage with the Ascenders and the Presbyterians.

Section 286

The members of the embassy are very unique. They wear soft clothes similar to silk. When they walked past Luo Sa, Luo Sa clearly felt a gust of wind. At first he thought it was an illusion, but later he discovered that the embassy Every person in the house either had their clothes swaying in the absence of wind, or was filled with water mist, or had flames and black smoke spraying from their nostrils, or had their legs covered with mud, covering their feet like a pair of shoes. .

“Are they all mages?” Luo Sa doesn’t know much about magic, but he also knows these people who can use magical power.

“Subject Ixtar, come to congratulate the great Shurima Empire and the great Ascended Queen!” A white-haired man headed by the mission bowed loudly to Setaka, “I am the third prince of Ixtar. Narulan, I sincerely wish that the Shurima Empire will prosper forever like the sun! This is a tribute from Ixtar, representing the respect and loyalty of Ixtar and all the people to the Shurima Empire and His Majesty the Empress!”

“Ixtar.” Luo Sa heard about this country from Maiisha. It is one of the four major vassal countries east of Shurima. It is said that it is a very ancient country, and its history may be even longer than Shurima. This country is rich in elemental mages, and has sent many mage talents to the Shurima Empire.

The Ixtar mission brought dozens of chests of treasures. Every time a box was opened, the things taken out would cause a commotion in the crowd. Some of the things even showed some interested eyes. The value is extraordinary, but in Luo Sa’s eyes, they are just colorful things – he has no idea what those treasures are.

“Thank you for the love of the people of Ixtar.” Setaka smiled and said, “As Shurima’s favor to the loyal subject of Ixtar, you can make a request to the Emperor.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty!” The third prince of Ixtar kowtowed heavily, “Ixtar hopes that Her Majesty the Queen can send an army of ascenders to help us eliminate the barbaric vastaya that endangers the safety of the people of Ixtar. tribe!”

“The barbaric vastaya tribe” Luo Sa’s impression of the vastayas is that they are furry and harmless guys who are also good at magic. There is a difference…”

“The people of Ixtar are the people of my Shurima, and it is imperative to protect them.” Setaka looked at the ascendant on the second platform, “Brave warriors of the gods, who is willing to volunteer?”

“Your Majesty!”

“Your Majesty!”

“Your Majesty!”

All of a sudden, almost half of the Ascenders took the initiative to stand up and enthusiastically begged for this life.

Luo Sa also saw that Valiva was eager to stand up, but she gave up with a face of regret, probably because of Luo Sa’s relationship, otherwise she must have worked hard to get this opportunity to legally kill.

In the end, a hamster-like ascender succeeded in his efforts. He walked to the stage with great satisfaction, enjoying the cheers and applause of the people.

“Thank you for the mission from Ixtar.” Nasus said, “Next, I invite the mission from Blessed Island!”

Compared to Ixtar’s gorgeous mission full of mages, the mission on Blessed Light Island is much more low-key. Half of the mission are acolytes in simple robes.

“Blessed Light Island… Maiisha seems to have said that it is the weakest of the four eastern vassal kingdoms… If it wasn’t for being the farthest from Shurima and being an island country on the sea, it might have been annexed by Shurima long ago.” Luo Saxin road.

The audience of the Fuguang Island mission was quite satisfactory, and nothing special happened. Setaka said that he wanted to give them a reward, but they also declined it. However, Setaka stillHe rewarded them with many gold jewels and precious spices.

The third mission is Baru, another island country among the four major vassal countries in the east.

The members of this mission gave Luo Saa an eerie feeling. Each of them had a fishy smell on their bodies, and some wrestlers were carrying huge totem poles, on which a huge octopus and sea monster was depicted.

“Baru of the Python Islands.” Luo Sa recalled Maiisha’s words, “A civilization that believes in a strange octopus and sea god seems to be the smallest of the four major vassal kingdoms, but they seem to use some very strange magic.”

Most of the tributes of Baru’s mission were some seafood, and judging from the reactions of the ascenders and the crowd, they seemed to be valuable treasures, but Luo Sa only felt that they all smelled like fish. There are a few seaweeds.

Like Blessed Island, Baru didn’t take the initiative to ask for anything from Setaka. They even declined when Setaka offered them rewards, as if they really didn’t want anything.

“A strange country…” Luo Sa couldn’t understand why this group of people didn’t want anything.

“The last mission please! The Icathian mission is here!” Nasus shouted.

Luo Sa saw a group of gorgeously dressed people walking onto the platform.

Icacia’s mission is the largest among the missions of the four countries, with hundreds of people, more than half of them are holding a flaming torch.

“Eternal Flame…” Luo Sa heard Maiisha say, “Icacia is the most powerful state in Shurima, and their mages will use a holy fire called Eternal Flame. It is said that this kind of flame It will never be extinguished, and the Icacia people have been nurtured by this kind of flame all year round, which makes the Icacia people have an extremely long life span, and there are many people who live for hundreds of years.”

“I am the envoy of Icacia, Kiran, a member of the Council of Mage Kings!” The leader of the Icacia envoy was an old man with pale beard and hair. He was a powerful mage at first glance, because the air around him was unnatural. The ground is distorted, showing that he is tall and short, fat and thin.

The most intuitive ones are the Ascendants in the second tier. When they saw Kieran, their expressions were obviously not as relaxed as when they were looking at other envoys. On the contrary, many Ascendants were carefully sizing up Kieran .

“This old man is very strong, so many ascenders are paying attention.” Luo Sa thought in his heart, and he silently memorized the name of Kieran.

Icacia is indeed the strongest among the four major vassal kingdoms, and the quality of the tribute presented is very high. Even Nasus couldn’t help but praise a few words that King Icacia has a heart.

“Icacia’s loyalty is in the eyes of the emperor.” Empress Setaka said, “Such a loyal country is worthy of my emperor’s promise to you.”

“Your Majesty.” Kieran bowed solemnly to Setaka. “My king, I, I, Icacia, have nothing else to ask for except that Her Majesty the Queen can promise us one thing!”

Kieran’s voice was a little trembling: “I implore Your Majesty, allow me Icacia to have an Ascendant!”

According to archaeological discoveries and historical records, at the peak of the ancient Shurima Empire, the territory covered almost the entire Shurima continent and parts of the southern part of the Valoran continent. The land area was much larger than that of Noxus today.

And there are many vassal states in the eastern part of the Shurima continent, but the details of these vassal states also disappeared in the long river of history with the fall of the ancient Shurima Empire.
