Legends of Runeterra

Chapter 685 Allegiance

"Hello, Kalando."

"Lord Li En..."

"Hiccup! I don't mean to bother you, but Mr. Li En, you said you have a way to repair my wine barrel. Please feel free to give it a try, otherwise my wine barrel will soon be empty.

Whatever reward you offer, I will do it!"

Hearing this, the three of them turned their heads and looked. With both hands, they held high the wine barrel inlaid with a giant battle blade. Gragas put the place where the wine dripped to his mouth and kept drinking the flowing wine.

"Okay, pass me the barrel."

"Gulu~!"

After swallowing a big gulp of wine, with visible heartache on his face, Gragas handed the barrel of wine flowing in front of Li En.

"Don't worry, it will be fine soon."

As Li En spoke, he stretched out his right hand and lightly tapped the wooden barrel with his index finger.

"Om~!"

Li En has reached his current level. The vitality provided by [Revitalized Body] is no longer limited to animals and plants. In addition, the materials used to make Gragas' barrels are extraordinary, and abundant vitality flows into the oak barrels.

as time flows.

“Crack! Crack! Crack!”

As everyone watched in amazement, the wood that was cut by the sword slowly grew and healed, squeezing the blade away from the barrel little by little.

Finally, the giant battle blade completely broke away from the wine barrel and fell to the ground.

"Crack~!"

Tryndamere reached out and took the weapon steadily, looking at the oak barrel curiously.

"This... just grew back straight away!?"

"Hahaha~! Great, now my wine is saved!

Thank you very much, Mr. Li En. If you are willing, how about having a drink with me later?"

“Crack! Crack! Crack!”

Just as Gragas excitedly invited Li En to drink, the wine barrel in his hand had not stopped changing. The place that was cut by the blade grew back and continued to sprout tender green branches.

"Sorry, it's my first time doing restoration work, so I gave it a little more vitality."

"Hahaha~! It's okay Mr. Li En, my barrel will be even more interesting this way."

"Well, as long as you don't mind."

"Of course I don't mind! Mr. Li En, shall we go have a drink now?"

Seeing this, Tryndamere hesitated for a moment and then stood there silently, without interrupting the conversation between Li En and Gragas.

Noticing this, Li En shook his head at the invitation.

"No, I have something else to do. How about I come back to you later?"

"No problem, I'll wait for you at 'Ice Arrow', the largest and easiest tavern in the city!"

"Ok."

After leaving the festival venue, Gragas rushed directly to the 'Ice Arrow' tavern with a barrel of wine. He had previously lost all his money to Tryndamere. Now if he wanted to treat Li En to a drink, he could only talk to the tavern owner and exchange wine for wine.

"Since we are going to entertain Mr. Li En, why not just replace all the remaining wine in the barrel and let Mr. Li En drink to his heart's content!"

Gragas picked up the barrel in his arms and looked at its newly changed position.

He hadn't had time to check it before, but now that he carefully observed and sensed it, the magic power he poured into the wine barrel seemed to disappear a little bit at this location.

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the sprouts on the wine barrel seemed to have grown a little bit more.

So, he took the initiative to input magic power into the location where the sprout was.

"No, there are indeed changes!"

Gragas paused and stared closely at the emerald green buds on the barrel.

"A branch sprouted from a wine barrel...hiss~! If I cultivate this branch sprout, wait for it to bear flowers or fruits, and then use it to make wine..."

Gradually, a look of excitement appeared on Gragas' face.

...

"Mix, Fario, Tate!"

From afar, looking at the children practicing fighting skills in the open space, Kalando shouted loudly.

"Brother Kalandor, Uncle Tryndamere, you are back!"

Seven or eight children gathered around them, cheering, and reached out to help them take the food and herbs in their hands.

Looking at the children who looked pale but no longer as anxious as they were at the beginning, a hint of relief flashed across Tryndamere's face.

He waved to the old man sitting at the door, nodded to Kalando, indicating that he should take the children first, and then turned to look at Li En.

"I'm sorry, Master Li En, the herbs are being boiled in the room and the smell is quite unpleasant, so I can't entertain you."

"It doesn't matter. Seeing the smiling faces of these children makes me very happy."

As Li En spoke, he took the initiative to smile at the children who were looking at him curiously, causing a cheer and then looked at Tryndamere again.

"Tryndamere, you are very responsible and take good care of your people."

"Master Li En...if I had..."

"That is a terrifying being called 'Darkborn', comparable to a god. This is not your fault."

Although Li En's mouth didn't move, his gentle voice rang in Tryndamere's mind.

"That Lord Li En, that damn guy..."

“Although His body has been shattered by me, He is not completely dead yet.

But until He thinks He has enough strength to defeat me, He will keep a low profile for a long time."

"Is that so... Thank you, Master Li En."

"You're welcome. Facing this insane being that attacks everyone indiscriminately, I have to defend myself."

If Aatrox could hear what Li En said, he would definitely have a lot to say.

It’s a pity that “He” will not appear in front of Li En at all at the moment.

Looking at Tryndamere's newly grown arm, Li En's voice continued to ring in his mind.

"In addition, the reason why you can stand up again and again from fatal injuries is partly due to your unique talent, and the other part is the 'Dark Evil Blood' in your body.

If you completely remove it, you might die on the spot, so now I just suppress it temporarily so that the 'Darkspawn' cannot sense and control you.

The price is that you can't use that power too often, otherwise you might fall into the same state again."

"Yes, Master Li En, I remember it!"

"Well, this 'Dark Blood' contains a lot of lost magic and curses. When I find a way, I will help you get rid of it."

"Hoo~!"

After taking a deep look at Kalando and the children, Tryndamere took a deep breath, slowly calmed the excitement on his face, and stared at Li En with his gray-green eyes.

"Lord Li En, my people have now been protected by Avarosa, and Kalando will officially come of age in the spring of next year, and will have the qualifications and strength to protect my people."

"Plop~!"

Tryndamere placed his right hand on his heart and knelt on one knee in front of Li En.

"Here, Tryndamere, I am willing to serve you, Lord Lien, and swear in the name of the Mountain Clan. I will fight in your name until death puts an end to me!"
