Rod's startle caused Silas to fall into a state of extreme shock - Silas had never seen Rod's ability to control time, and in an instant, he was bound by the flaming shackles and flew out of his room into the air...... It's a bit exciting.

This is not the end, after he had the thought of "this guy is afraid that he is not mentally retarded", he directly forced himself to accept his "kindness"!

Is it really good intentions?

Now Silas can guarantee that this guy definitely wants to take the opportunity to "help" himself and forcibly demand payment after the deed is done - it seems that he really has no power to resist!

Therefore, in the face of Rod's request, Silas behaved "unyieldingly" and did not let go of his mouth to the death.

"Even if Demacia's revolution will fail, I will not accept any foreign forces to help and do things that betray Demacia's interests!"

And the more Silas insisted, the more Rod insisted - in the end, when Silas thought that Rod was angry and planned to kill him, Rod suddenly burst out laughing.

"Good, Silas." Rod returned to the surface with Silas, "Remember your choice - always for Demacia." ”

After saying that, Rod didn't stay any longer, and simply took Anne with him, and after finding Jana and Jinx, he quickly left Irwindale.

Only Silas, who had not yet figured out the situation, was left with a confused expression.

……………………

"You shouldn't be like that." After Rhodes and the others left Irwindale, Ruiz, who had not been seen, finally appeared, "You're making the test easier for him-"

"Calm down." In response to Ruiz's accusation, Rod waved his hand indifferently, "We just need to make sure that those forbidden magic stones are not made into weapons, this guy cares so much about Demacia, he won't make the forbidden magic stones into anything strange......"

"It's not that simple!" Rhyz sighed, "I've been insisting that you do the necessary tests after contacting Silas, just to determine how much we should do with him based on his reaction, and now we don't have a definitive conclusion." ”

"What do you mean?" Rod looked at Ruiz with some surprise, "You seem to have something to say?" ”

"I mean." Ryze's expression was very serious, "My will and thoughts are not enough to serve as a basis for the reliability of the target and whether coercive measures are needed, I believe that as you said, this guy does care about Demacia, but it is not enough to confirm that he will not use these forbidden magic stones as a terrible weapon that he cannot control." ”

"I don't really understand what you mean." Rod shook his head, "He doesn't want Demacia to suffer too badly, so as long as we explain the dangers of the Forbidden Stone, he doesn't have any reason to refuse us to take these dangerous items away or supervise them." ”

"The people of Acacia have no intention of destroying Acacia." "But in reality, even if you know everything, you can't control your own destiny. ”

Rod was stunned for a moment, then looked at Ruiz with some surprise.

"Is that your credo?"

“…… It's not a creed. Reze seemed to remember something from the past, "I've seen too many self-sacrifices - the goals of the victims are extremely noble, but many times they are bewitched and blinded, the current Silas is all for Demacia, but who knows what the Silas of tomorrow will be for?" ”

"Shall I stay and watch him soon?" Rhodes blinked, "Have you forgotten that I am not a Rune Guardian, and I can participate in the strife of the Valoran kingdoms in a grand manner." ”

This time it was Ruiz's turn to be stunned.

"Did you really choose that?" Looking at Rodes, whose face was full of granted, Ruiz's expression looked a little subtle, "Will you firmly stand on the side of mortals?" ”

“…… I'm not a god in the first place. Looking at the entanglement on Ruiz's face, Rhodes was very calm, "I'm not like you, I'm not Valoran's rune keeper, I don't have the power of runes - I'm willing to help you maintain order in Valoran, because it's also beneficial to me; But it's hard for me to take this kind of thing as a lifelong task and responsibility. ”

"Believe me, responsibility is something I've had, it's too heavy, I just hope that I can live a satisfying life every day, I may be interested in being a hero, or I may become a bastard in the eyes of some people for some reason, I know that many times you crave someone who can help you share the responsibility - but unfortunately, this person is not destined to be me."

"I prefer to treat any responsibility as a transaction rather than a mission, the former is full of energy and possibilities for me, and the latter is like a shackle that is difficult for me to accept."

"For you, the mission of coming to Demacia this time is to remove the danger of the runestone, and to hide your traces from mortals, and not to interfere in the Demacian Revolution itself."

"But for me, my mission is only to disarm the threat of the Runestone, not the rules behind it—so I'd rather put myself in the middle of an interesting wave of revolution, since I'm not a rune keeper who doesn't eat fireworks and doesn't dare to make friends."

After coming to Valoran, Rod was confused and confused, but now, after going through a lot, Rod has his own really firm attitude, in this life he does not seek to be high, nor does he seek to purify all sentient beings, he just wants to be happy enough, happy enough!

Rhodes still has a reason to be kind to others regardless of his own ends—but that's just a matter of interest.

Compared with the scheming order and evil, this time Rod chose chaos and goodness!

Rod's words made Rhodes stunned and a little sad in his heart - Rhodes's cunning was beyond Rhyd's imagination, and although Rhydes had been guiding Rhodes in the direction of the Guardians, Rhodes would always put himself among mortals.

There are fights, there are tasks, and Rhodes can help - but helping is because of interests, because of our friendship, and never because of responsibility.

In other words, Rod made it clear that he would not take any responsibility for Valoran, even if in practice he was doing what he was supposed to do.

"It's kind of unbelievable." After a long time, Ruiz finally spoke slowly, "Your understanding of responsibility is far deeper than I imagined, it seems that I really can't retire early." ”

"Don't be so discouraged!" Looking at the somewhat tired Ruiz, Rod patted him on the shoulder indifferently, "Objectively speaking, aren't I also helping you?" As long as I'm in the middle of this revolution, no one will be able to touch those forbidden stones—can you have some faith in me? ”

"Not really." Hearing Rod say this, Ruiz shook his head with a wry smile, "Actually, the reason I pulled you in a hurry this time is because I received news that the Void Prophet of Acacia has disappeared. ”

"Acacia's Void Prophet?"

"That's right." Ruiz nodded, "Based on some of the details, I have reason to believe that that guy's target is Silas!" ”
