章節 227: -222- He can be cool
"."
Nasus fell silent.
"Once, you and Renekton together could stop Xerath, but now you are not the powerful Nasus anymore, and neither is Renekton."
"But as long as Azir can come back, he will definitely have a way to deal with Xerath," Neseris said.
"But that's what I'm afraid of, Nasus. From your attitude towards Janna just now, your attitude towards the Twin Cities, it's not hard to imagine how the Emperor will view Zaun," Linwin said, his head aching.
Azir is a powerful and cunning king. Under Azir's rule, Shurima entered its heyday. If it weren't for Xerath's betrayal. This land would be called Shurima, not Runeterra.
Therefore, it's not hard to imagine that Azir will be ruthless to betrayers.
Azir is not like Renekton and Xerath; he truly died, died for thousands of years, and his last memories probably include resentment when betrayed and the pain of physical injury.
He has no idea what has happened in Shurima over the past millennium, what he has experienced. So if he is resurrected, he will reclaim everything that belongs to him.
What about Zaun and Piltover?
Piltover and Zaun once belonged to Shurima.
During the millennium of Shurima's disappearance, Kha'Zhun found its own path, and then it split into Zaun and Piltover. Three hundred years of division later, the two city-states finally overcame their hatred and reunited, but will these words be useful to Azir?
It's ridiculous to run to a chicken and talk about how difficult it has been for Zaun during these years of chaos in Shurima, how lucky Zaun has been to survive, and how it has successfully freed itself from Shurima's control. I hope the Emperor can understand us.
This is why Linwin approached Nasus, not only for the powerful Champagne Card, but also to pave the way for Azir in the future.
Hope that when Azir is resurrected, Nasus can help with a few good words. Even if he can't be an ally, he must not be an enemy.
Linwin doesn't think he can stop Azir.
Azir's powerful Ascended power allows him to raise the sun disk with a wave of his hand. Given some time, he can create Ascended beings, and every Ascended being is a powerful monster on the battlefield.
Even the weakest Ascended can single-handedly slaughter hundreds on the battlefield.
But now, Linwin realized, it's useless.
Really useless.
Because even the mild-mannered scholar and Shuriman official Nasus sees the current Zaun and Piltover as Shuriman territory, and Azir, as the Emperor, will only be more domineering.
"I will explain to the Emperor clearly, I know what you want," Nasus opened his mouth wide, and continued loudly, "Azir is a wise ruler. I have witnessed him bring Shurima to unprecedented prosperity, I know what kind of person he is."
"But he was betrayed, Nasus."
Azir's background story clearly states that when he was resurrected, driven by hatred for Xerath, he attacked the town where Xerath was born with his sand soldiers. If not for the talk-no-jutsu of a little girl, Azir's wrath would have resulted in a bloody massacre of the town.
He would have killed the entire town and let it sleep under the yellow sand, knowing this, Xerath would feel anger, would feel pain.
Killing innocent subjects just to make your enemies feel anger.
"But he will still be himself, believe me, Linwin."
Nasus said loudly, "Azir may vent his anger and hatred on others due to pain and anger, but he will come to his senses."
"He will change the current Shurima."
"What are you talking about!"
Suddenly, a sharp female voice interrupted the conversation between Linwin and Nasus.
Nasus turned his head and finally saw Kai'Sa and Taliyah.
The speaker was not Kai'Sa; she was also startled by the sudden angry female voice.
"My people said that the former Emperor of Shurima was a cruel and ruthless man. He unified the divergent tribes and turned them all into his slaves," Taliyah walked angrily towards Nasus, "Slaves have no rights, and no one cares about the lives and deaths of slaves."
Taliyah was very scared, but even though she was very scared, even though her heart was pounding wildly now.
Her hands and feet trembled, her voice quivered.
But Taliyah still bravely approached the giant monster in front of her, her little face red with anger as she shouted loudly at Nasus, "Such cruel and heartless emperor, and you want to resurrect him? And then restore that kind of system?"
"Do you want to taste the stones? You bastard!"
Linwin saw Taliyah suddenly become so emotional and instantly understood why Taliyah was so worked up.
Ancient Shurima was a typical pyramid society, and the pyramid type was the most typical social system on Runeterra, but ancient Shurima was even more exaggerated.
Let's put it this way, even powerful beings like Xerath were not respected because of their slave status. Azir's father never looked at Xerath properly, even after learning that Xerath had saved Azir and killed the assassin.
Even though Xerath was a capable genius.
But no matter how capable, just because he was a slave, he was not valued.
In ancient Shurima, the royal family and the god-warriors who led the army were the first tier.
Powerful soldiers and nobles were the second tier.
Below them were the poor imperial residents and the countless exploited slaves.
Ancient Shurima had been waging wars for thousands of years, and the people of conquered nations became slaves after being captured.
But Azir, as the Emperor, wanted to change this system.
He wanted to abolish the slavery that had lasted for thousands of years in Shurima.
Just when Azir was about to succeed, he was betrayed by his trusted brother.
Azir is definitely qualified to treat the people of ancient Shurima well. Otherwise, his anger would not have subsided because of a little girl's words. Does anyone really think that an Emperor who has been alive for a thousand years and who rules such a large empire would give up his hatred because of a few words from a ten-year-old child?
It's not that the child's persuasion was successful, but Azir himself came to terms with it.
Taliyah's misunderstanding of Azir runs deep.
In fact, Azir was the one standing by Taliyah's side, but the little sparrow mistakenly thought Xerath was the good guy, that Xerath abolished slavery. But players who understand the background know that Xerath, that coffin board, is a bad guy.
"Don't think anyone will be afraid of you!"
Taliyah stamped her foot, and at the moment she raised her hand, the ground under Nasus collapsed. The sudden upheaval of the ground caused Nasus to lose his footing, stumbling back a few steps.
When Nasus looked up, behind Taliyah, stones formed into short spear, exactly like the scene when Janna summoned wind arrows earlier, just on a much smaller scale.
But Neseris was stunned.
This girl, she can control the earth?
Linwin smiled bitterly and tried to stop Taliyah, "Taliyah, he's not-"
But Nasus interrupted Linwin's words, walked past Linwin, looked at Taliyah, and said in a deep voice, "You are a Shuriman? You have the magic to break apart stones."
"I can break more than just stones, including your head!" the little sparrow shouted.
Nasus looked at Taliyah, and then at Kai'Sa behind Taliyah. Seeing Kai'Sa's appearance, Nasus opened his big mouth, anger and disgust rushing out, "And you? A creature contaminated by the Void?"
"Linwin, why do you keep such creatures around you?"
"You know the threat the Void poses to us."
Kai'Sa stood quietly there, looking at Nasus, letting Nasus talk about her.
After all, Kai'Sa had long been accustomed to Nasus's gaze and words.
"Shut it, Nasus!"
Neseris turned around and saw Linwin with a stern face.
With a cold face, Linwin quickly approached Nasus, looking up at the tall canine-headed figure.
"What do you know about her?"
"A Void creature?"
"In these years you've been avoiding out of self-blame, who do you think stopped those bugs in the east of Shurima?"
"Are those fleeing nomads alive thanks to you?"
Nasus suddenly turned his head to look at Kai'Sa after hearing this, suddenly recalling a village in the east while he was looking for Xerath.
A girl named Doma in the village told Nasus a secret: there was someone protecting them from the monsters near Icathia.
"I respect you, scholar. But that doesn't mean you can meddle with my people."
Linwin met Nasus's eyes and then slowly calmed down.
Nasus is not a bad person.
On the contrary, Nasus is a good person who has helped Linwin.
And his rejection of Kai'Sa is understandable, after all, in the eyes of the Ascended, Kai'Sa is indeed a monster.
Neseris knows what people contaminated by the Void will become.
He witnessed firsthand friends and family becoming synonymous with evil.
From Nasus's eyes, Linwin also saw remorse.
The scholar is very clever, and with just a few words, Nasus already knows what kind of person Kai'Sa is.
But even so.
Linwin still felt annoyed.
Looking at Nasus, Linwin said very seriously:
"I hope there won't be a next time, Nasus."
"I understand, Linwin."
Nasus sighed and looked at Kai'Sa, "It's my fault, I misunderstood you."
Kai'Sa pursed her lips and just looked at Nasus quietly, without any emotion in her eyes.
She didn't care how Nasus saw her.
She really had long been used to it.
But.
When she looked at Linwin and saw his annoyed expression, Kai'Sa suddenly turned away.
Taliyah, manipulating a pile of stones, looked at Kai'Sa in confusion.
Then she saw Kai'Sa's smile—
This guy, Linwin.
He can be cool like this too huh....?
