[0364] Helia Ruins

Compared to the talkative Maukee, Yorik is undoubtedly a silent guy - strictly speaking, his Mist Walker companion is more lively than him.

But it is undeniable that this guy is indeed an excellent guide.

From Spider's Nest to Hynia, Lucian has never walked. If Yasuo and the others were asked to explore by themselves, they could only follow one direction, heading south all the way, and then slowly explore.

But now, with Yorik's guidance, Yasuo and others soon arrived on a road that had almost disappeared - and along this road, they soon arrived at an abandoned township.

"This is outside Hynia." Outside the collapsed wall, Yorik stopped, "transfer center, grain distribution center."

The long-term failure to speak made Yorik's voice low and hoarse, and he didn't know how to pronounce it very clearly, but Yasuo still understood what he meant.

"Is there anything like a library here?" Yasuo asked, looking at the dilapidated town, "or a museum or something?"

"Maybe there." Yorik obviously didn't know this problem, "but, too long, everything decayed."

Upon hearing this, Yasuo shrugged helplessly.

Then, the team took a break for a while, everyone scattered and searched around to see if they could find some useful information.

Yorik, who was leaning on his own blade, stayed quietly on the streets of the town with the Mist Walker, waiting for the team to set off again after they were ready.

………………………………………

After the dispersion, Lucian and Senna carefully arrived at the northeast corner of the town.

It's not safe here, but fortunately the town is not big. If there is really any danger, Yasuo or Ryze will have time to support it.

Although in Yasuo's eyes, this town doesn't seem to have much to explore, Lucian still carefully records all the information he saw, including but not limited to the architectural characteristics, urban layout and other aspects.

For Lucian, this is precious first-hand information.

Soon, Lucian came to a place near the outer periphery of the town - Fukugawa Island was protected by fog, so there was no military building itself. The walls outside the town were in the form of fences, which looked more like a landmark.

Perhaps when the years were still quiet here, this fence wall was once lush and covered with vines, but under the erosion of time and black fog, the once wall was still transformed into a ruin, and only a few parts were still stubbornly ridged on the ground.

After depicting the fence ruins on the notes, Lucian put away the parchment paper - the black fog is very corrosive to the text materials. After recording, he needs to quickly put away his notes, otherwise it will easily lead to blurring his records.

Then, just as he and Sena were planning to go back to meet and ask if there were any gains in other directions, a melodious singing came over.

Well, it may be a bit exaggerated to say that melodiousness - if you have to describe this song, it may be more appropriate to use "desolate".

After hearing the song, Lucian's first reaction was Karthas.

Although Syndra had easily killed this Death Singer before, as long as the undead on Shadow Island did not completely lose themselves, they could always be reborn in the black fog. Karthas is undoubtedly a very capable guy. Since he can take the initiative to embrace death, he will definitely not be so ruined.

But... after listening carefully, Lucian quickly rejected the option.

Although Kalsas was a bastard, the song of death he sang was ethereal and ethereal, completely different from the current song.

So, if it's not Kalsas, who would sing on Shadow Island?

Following the song, Lucian soon arrived at the scene.

It was indeed not Kalsas who sang, but an undead person he had never seen before - unlike Kalsas who held a staff and a spellcaster style, with a long sword behind his back.

When Lucian and Senna came to the scene together, people who were exploring other directions also arrived one after another. Everyone looked at the man who was singing on their own and shook their heads silently.

Obviously, no one knew him, and even Yorik didn't know the identity of this guy.

When everyone was confused, the undead finally stopped singing. He glanced at everyone around him, and then gave a serious warning.

"There is the gap between life and death ahead."

“There is the cycle of time and emptiness before it.”

"Be alert, outsiders."

"If you make mistakes, you will be lost in the cage of obsession."

"There will never be liberated!"

This seemed to be a proverb, or it seemed to be just a whisper that made everyone frown. Then, before Yasuo asked, the guy's figure merged with the vast black fog and disappeared completely.

"It's so strange." Feeling the confusion of the Wind Spirit, Yasuo finally shook his head, "There is such a person on Shadow Island?"

………………………………………

The town experience was just a small episode - then, the group set out again and finally arrived at the end of the trip, Hynia City, a day later.

Or... the current ruins of Hynia City.

After summoning a strong wind and temporarily blew away the black fog, Yasuo narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the broken city wall in front of him.

Like the fence walls in the town before, Hynia's walls have a much greater decorative significance than practical significance. Although the white paint on the wall has been peeled off, the remaining patterns and shapes still look elegant and beautiful now.

These low walls should only be to set off the height of the main building. Under the erosion of black fog, many buildings in Hylia City have collapsed, but even the ruins in ruins still look full of momentum and amazingly tall.

In a sense, Demacia now inherits some of the once Hynia culture. Towering buildings and white paints used to be prominent features of Fukugami Island architecture.

Of course, compared with the buildings in Demacia, the buildings on Fuguang Island were once more luxurious. To this day, the gold paint used for decoration on the walls still shines, as if telling the glory and greatness of this ancient country.

Drizzt and Graves looked at each other and reached a disorderly and talkative tacit understanding in an instant. Yasuo seemed to have guessed their thoughts and reminded him first.
