he came from the void

Even if these trolls couldn't figure out the situation, they knew they couldn't approach them rashly.In the chilling silence, Trundle groaned in pain, gasped for air, and gradually got up with his arms propped on the ground.

As soon as the king of trolls raised his head, he saw a figure like a nightmare, looking at him with three horrified eyes.

"It's you?!"

"Be safe, Trundle." Kahn responded to Trundle's surprise with a laugh, and his tone was as familiar as an old friend he hadn't seen for many years. He felt that the other party's next sentence was about to talk about the weather.

"Today's weather is not bad, with dark clouds, suitable for murder and arson...Are you right?"

"Why are you here? What are you here for?" Trundle replied, reaching for the bone crushing stick beside him.

Before he got the stick, he felt a sudden thump in his heart, because Kahn noticed his little movement and stepped on his ready-to-move palm with his foot.

"Tsk tsk." Kahn shook his head: "Is it because the lesson just now is not enough, and you still want to take a blow?"

Capture the thief first and capture the king first, Trundle fell silent, and Kahn saw that the deterrence had taken effect, so he said to him, "King of trolls, take your men back, don't let me If I see you again in Avarosa's territory, I can let you go."

His voice was not loud, only the two of them could hear him clearly, and he saved the face of the troll king for him in front of the tribe.

It's just that Kahn didn't expect that Trundle would dare to refuse. He only heard him say: "No, Lissandra will kill me!"

"Are you not afraid that I will take your life now?"

Being questioned by Kahn, Trundle was speechless.He also wanted to fight back, but he was well aware of the gap between them and had to lie flat.

Karn asked, "Is it Lissandra's intention to let the trolls invade Avarosa?"

"Yes."

"What is she planning?" Kahn speculated on Lissandra's intentions, did Avarosa's expansion threaten her?

"Could it be because of us?" Kai'Sa said, "Seeing that we joined Avarosa, Lissandra has a grudge and wants to fight us."

"Not really. The timing is wrong, the trolls started invading before we joined."

Unable to think of a reason for the time being, Kahn refocused on Trundle.He warned: "Listen Trundle, if you want to go back alive, stop your aggression against Avarosa. This is an ultimatum, don't let me see you again, or I will really tear you apart .”

"If I can't fulfill Lissandra's order, I will die if I go back."

"How could it be?" Kahn said, "Speaking of which, I am helping her solve the problem. If she understands, she will make concessions."

Trundle mused. He understood a little, but not quite.

Probably what Lissandra wants him to do hinders Kahn, and what Kahn wants to do is also related to Lissandra, and it is more important to her.What Kahn meant was that if he made it clear to Lissandra, she would understand his difficulties.

From Kahn's point of view, this matter will be more clear.

Karn asked Trundle to retreat in order to learn the whereabouts of the Ice Phoenix from Ashe, so as to seek help to strengthen the watcher's seal.Not only could Lissandra not embarrass them, but she had to give them convenience, so Trundle's retreat should not be punished by her.

"Is it all right as long as I take the people out of Avarosa's territory and stop invading?" Trundle didn't want to fight against Kahn, but he didn't fulfill Lissandra's order, and he didn't want to go back to see her, even though Karn had promised that Lissandra would not kill him.

Faced with such a situation, the troll king had his own plan with a thought.

He was confirming some rules with Kahn, so that he could take advantage of the loopholes in the rules later and have a good time between the two.

"Yes, it's as simple as that. Leave me now, before I change my mind, you know... dead trolls are always more pleasing than living trolls."

Kahn nodded impatiently, he was too lazy to waste time on these trolls.Silencing the trolls might gain Ashe more favors, but he doesn't have to do it for her.And without Trundle's restraint, who knows when those trolls will attack the village of Avarosa again.

"Okay, it's a deal." Trundle withdrew his hand from Kahn's feet, picked up the bone smasher and waved it, sending out a battle cry of retreat.

These trolls were like overwhelming mountains and seas when they invaded and charged, and they retreated like a tide when they retreated.

When the last troll disappeared from sight, Karn sighed softly.

"That way you can move on to the next step."

Chapter 7 and Six Passion

After dissuading the troll, Karn and Kai'Sa returned to the embassy in Avarosa.

He wanted to see how Nunu and the others were doing, but he didn't expect Ashe to be here, telling stories to the children.The house was still warm with a charcoal fire lit, but I didn't forget to open the windows for ventilation.

She fulfilled her promise and took good care of the two children, which made Kahn very pleased.

"Sister Kaisha! Brother Kahn!" Annie found the two people who came back, and her yell interrupted Ashe who was talking.

"Thank you Warmother Ashe for taking time out of her busy schedule to help us take care of the children." Kahn took off the fur coat and Kai'Sa's scarf and hung them on the shelf, and nodded to Ashe in greeting.

"Why did you come back so soon?" Ashe patted Nunu's head and turned his gaze to the two.

She was very surprised to see the two of them at this time, less than three days had passed, not even enough time for a one-way trip.But this also shows that Ashe is not pretending, she really did not expect the two to come back so early.

"Things are going well, no accidents, the trolls should not invade Avarosa again." Kai'Sa still didn't tell Ashe what they did, she just needs to let Ashe know the result.

Ashe said nothing, in fact she had nothing to say.In her mind, she mulled over the possibility that Kai'Sa was a crazy woman emerging from some corner.She has doubts about this matter, but there is no evidence for the time being, so she can only wait for a while to verify all this.

"Since you're back, I'll go back to deal with government affairs first." Asila put on her hood to cover her silver hair, then picked up the longbow leaning against the wall and left their room.

The door closed in front of her eyes, and Kaisha gently hugged Anne, who was leaning over to ask for a hug, and said to Kahn next to her, "She is so busy that she doesn't even have time to take care of her hair, and she comes to help us take care of the children. She is really a nice person." .”

Generally speaking, women in the Freljord will go out with their long hair carefully braided for convenience, like an ornate crown.If a woman has disheveled hair, it means that she has been very busy recently.Even Kai'Sa, a fake battle mother, has braids like a princess, and it's a bit too casual for Ashe to be disheveled like this.

"Isn't it? It's not easy to manage such a mixed alliance. There are many things waiting for her to take care of. She has to fight the enemy and deal with government affairs. If it weren't for the strong endurance of the Iceborn, she might have already Exhausted."

Kahn said to the point, in fact, it is not easy for everyone.

"Kan Kahn, I played the music my mother taught me to Ashe!" Nunu suddenly ran over, took Kahn's hand and showed off to him.In his eyes, it was a great honor to play music for Avarosa's war mother, let alone a beautiful big sister.

"Oh? What kind of music?" Kahn squatted down and asked curiously.

Nunu had a strong desire for performance, and immediately used ice and snow gems to conjure a stringed instrument made entirely of ice that Kahn didn't recognize and played.Nunu actually doesn't know how to use this instrument, but as long as he recalls the scenes with his mother, the instrument can automatically play a familiar melody according to his impression.

"It's really nice. But it's nice to listen to. Does this song have any meaning?"

Kahn knew that every ballad, every melody, and every note of the Notai clan was meaningful, but he couldn't feel the artistic conception without knowing their customs.

"Of course, this note is the buzzing of pilgrims gathering. I saw them worshiping under the statue of Avarosa in Lak Stark, and suddenly my mother sang for me. I think you all Should have listened."

Nunu has been following his mother's footsteps, and every time he goes to a place they have been together, her singing will come to his mind. Therefore, Nunu has always believed that his mother is not dead, which is also his distressing feeling. place.

"My mother told me that Lax Stark was a shining frozen lake, a jewel too big for anyone to take away. But the Avarosans built a monument next to it, saying to themselves They own the treasure. They live like statues. Warmothers, Iceborn, they won't go out, they fear the world beyond the shadow of Avarosa. But in the eyes of others, they have gone too far"

Kahn was stunned, and asked in a low voice: "You didn't tell Ashe this, did you?"

"No." Nunu shook his head.

"Everyone has the right to choose their own life, just like you Notai people had to leave when the snow fell, because you thought it was an adventure entrusted to you by Anivia, there is a reason why Avarosa chose to settle down, We have no reason to force them to live the way we do."

Likewise, Kahn wasn't forcing Nunu to think logically when he was teaching him, he was just sharing his thoughts.

Not everyone likes the Notai clan, although they send songs to every village they encounter on their journey.But there are still some villages who regard them as untrustworthy traders, and others fear them, because their arrival often announces the coming of ice and snow, and winter means life and death.

"They think it's safer to live in one place, but we follow passion and freedom." Nunu said that his mother taught him a lot of truths, and he has already formed a set of worldviews in his heart.

"Do you know what passion is, Nunu?" Unexpectedly, such a word came out of a child's mouth, and Kaisha covered her mouth and snickered.

"Is passion like a savage kissing a war mother?"

"Haha, it's almost the same." Kai'Sa was so happy.

Nunu scratched her head in doubt, wondering what she was laughing at.It's like he doesn't understand why the children sleep alone, but the adults have to hug each other to sleep.

In order to prevent the topic from developing in an unsuitable direction for children, Kaisha quickly sent the two children away, and then she continued chatting with Kahn. "By the way, speaking of hair, I recently heard a rumor that Ashe's hair color was not white before. Is this true?"

"It should be. I heard that she was originally blond, but the moment she picked up the bow of Avarosa, her hair became white due to the powerful power of pure ice."

"Alas." Kaisha seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly sighed, she threw her braids in front of her and shook them: "Who remembers that I used to have black hair."

"I remember." Kahn smiled and gently touched her earlobe. "It's okay, you are beautiful like this now."

Chapter 7 Seven Seven

A week later, Ashe came to her again.

Unlike the usual dignified expression, this time there was an uncharacteristic joy on her face.

"You did it, those trolls really retreated!"

"Congratulations." Kai'Sa smiled calmly, she had expected this result. "In this way, the pressure on the front line should be much less."

"Not only that, there is intelligence from the front that those trolls are attacking Winter's Claw again after evacuating the territory of Avarosa. Now that group of looters are being harassed to death, we not only get respite, maybe we can Use this opportunity to put pressure on Winter's Claw."

Kai'Sa's smile froze, and Ashe's last words made her realize the nature of this war mother.But she is not qualified to say anything, she can't ask others to only resist aggression and not fight back.

"This is really a surprise." Kai'Sa shook her head and said, "Let's talk about the things we promised earlier."

Ashe's smile faded away, and she nodded towards the two of them, motioning for them to follow her outside.

Looking up at the clear blue sky, the war mother put her fingers to her mouth and whistled.

An ice eagle was summoned by the whistle, and flew from afar to land on Ashe's arm. Its eyes were sharp and full of wildness. It was a complete bird of prey, but when it met Ashe, it seemed very intimate.

"Don't tell me you named this guy Anivia." Kaisha made a joke that even she felt cold, and Ashe shook her head slightly with a hooked mouth: "It's actually called Avarosa, It will lead you to Anivia. But before that, you have to learn how to get along with it."

After finishing speaking, she stroked the feathers of the ice eagle, and the latter did not resist at all, and obediently let it be stroked.

Kahn and Kai'Sa glanced at each other, they didn't expect such a thing to happen.He said: "That's not necessary. Our little helper can communicate with animals, so we don't need to spend time learning new skills."

"Nunu, come here!" Kahn yelled into the room, and Nunu responded immediately.

"Coming soon."

Ashe was a little surprised: "Is he a beast spirit shaman?"

"No, but he is very talented in taming animals, so he can be considered a half-beast spirit walker."

The Beast Walker can feel the primitive emotions of nearby creatures, while the Ice Gem gives Nunu the ability to sense the voices of others, which can achieve similar effects to the former.

With a bang, the wooden door was knocked open, and Nunu hurried to them, and said excitedly, "What are you calling me for? Warmother Ashe is here too? Is there another story to tell!"

The naive Nunu thought that Ashe came to tell him a story again, Kahn held him down, pointed to the ice eagle on Ashe's arm and said to him: "I found a tour guide for us, let you come and talk to him. Hand it over."

"Wow, that's cool!" Nunu was not afraid, and stretched out his hands to hold the eagle, but the ice eagle spread its wings and flew up.

"What a brat, you can't be so rude." Kai'Sa slapped his hand off, telling him to be careful.

"I do have a story here, which is very suitable for telling now." Ashe smiled and raised her arms, and the ice eagle fell down again.She told Nunu not to move, then placed the ice eagle lightly on Nunu's arm.

"What is it?" Nunu asked.

"There is still a legendary story about Ula Crackgun in the Avarosa tribe. She is an ice-born warmother who was honored by Anivia for saving a young falcon from the mouth of a frost-toothed wolf. Favored. Ula was always protected by the ice crystal phoenix for the rest of her life, and when she watched a hundred seasons of winter and finally fell in battle, it is said that Anivia spread her wings to welcome her."

"So you also saved this eagle from the Frostooth? Then you were favored by Anivia?"

"Not really. Let's get down to business. I'll teach you how to get along with Avarosa, how to summon it to your side, and then you just follow it."

The next morning, Ashe came to see Kahn and his party out of the city again.

"Warmother Ashe, what's the matter?" Kai'Sa asked.

"I know that you Nuotai people spend your whole life on the road, but it is still necessary to send farewell wishes to your brothers and sisters."

"Thank you."

Ashe's words made people feel like a spring breeze, they hugged each other, and after they parted, she took Kai'sa's hand again.

"Come with me, I have prepared gifts for you, right at the gate of the city."

"What gift?" Kai'Sa asked in surprise.

"You'll know when it arrives."

At the city gate, Ashe led them to a caravan.She said: "Nunu said he wanted a caravan, and that's all I can do for you. This is my gift for you, and now the whole car is yours."

Kahn was stunned, and the car in front of him was like a magnet that firmly attracted his gaze.

This car can be said to be a mobile house. The diameter of the wheels is as high as a person. Through the window, you can see the contents of the shed, the bed with blankets, the table with the charcoal basin and kettle, and The kerosene lamps hanging on the pillars outside, everything can be said to be readily available.And the driver of this caravan is a domesticated giant Yucal. This kind of animal is docile and obedient, and can pull the caravan forward smoothly.

"Wow! This is a caravan that only exists in dreams." Nunu jumped into the car excitedly from Willump's body, got into the back trailer behind the caravan, and covered the cloth on his head , showing a grimace from the gap.

"Look, it's big enough for us to play hide and seek!" He yelled, playing a game of whack-a-mole with Willump, watching Annie wanting to leave Kaisha's side and run to the car together Played.

Kahn recovered from the shock of this great gift: "War Mother Ashe, how embarrassing is this."

"Take it, you need it." Ashe nodded at them, gesturing for them to accept the gift.

As Ai Xi said, they took two children on the road this time, and they really needed such a means of transportation to make the next journey easier.

"Thank you so much, then we will be disrespectful." Kaisa felt Ashe's sincerity and accepted the gift.

She happily picked up Annie and entered the car, Willump also stuffed her fat body into the trailer, and Kahn took the initiative to sit in the driver's seat and took the reins.

"Sit tight! Let's go!"
