After Jaye left the group to find another way to leave, and Kai'Sa found the next hernia, waved his hand and jumped down, Rhodes and the others finally embarked on the journey again.

It seems that because of the amount of information about what happened before, everyone was silent on the flying carpet along the way, and everyone was silently pondering - only the big-hearted Anne and Jinx were still bickering.

Acacia is different from Shurima, there is not much wind and sand here, there is a barrenness and silence everywhere, sitting on the flying carpet, if it is not for the wind blowing in front of you, you can hardly see the flying carpet moving forward.

Flat earth, with only a few occasional hernias as a reference.

When Jax left in a hurry, the void hadn't spread that far, and it was still a fertile place.

And for thousands of years, the erosion of the void has been pressing forward step by step, engulfing the entire region of Acacia, and turning it into a dead place everywhere it goes.

After a period of silence, Silas finally found Rhodes.

Straight to the point, Silas came up with his own meaning - as long as Rhodes proved that he was not on the Void side, he would stand with Rhodes.

The threat of the Void is far beyond Silas's imagination, and if what Rhodes said is true, I'm afraid that dealing with the Void will have to be a higher priority in the next period of time.

Rhodes immediately accepted Silas's request - the identity of the Prophet of Freljord and the Seal of the Wailing Abyss could be verified.

As a result, the two sides had a cordial and friendly exchange, and finally reached some effective consensus - the general content was that "the Revolutionary Army is willing to accept Rhodes' help to normalize Demacia's magic, and after that, they are willing to support Rhodes against the Void".

Rhodes was quite pleased with the result – but even so, Rod did not stop the flying carpet and continued to head southeast.

The journey...... It's not over yet.

……………………

Quietly gazing at the land he had been away from for a long time, Jax couldn't tell how much pain and sadness he felt in his heart.

"Why don't you have a hard-boiled egg?" Rod looked at Jax, who was obviously wrong, and made a suggestion of his own, "Maybe this will make you feel better?" ”

"No need." Jax waved his hand and rejected Rod's offer, "You never told me why you had to come to the ancient battlefield of Acacia - the scars of that land are not incomprehensible to ordinary people......"

"I'm not here to convince them." Seeing Jax's appearance, Rod finally said his purpose, "Although a few of them didn't say it, I'm pretty sure they understood what I was thinking - I insisted on coming here because there was still a barrier in someone's heart. ”

"Who?"

"You." Rod shrugged, "Don't think you're covering it well. ”

Jax fell silent again.

Rhodes was right, Jax did still have a barrier in his heart, and to this day, he was still a little reluctant to face the past, although he was also trying to fight against the Void, but this effort was more like an atonement for him.

"Feel like a deserter?"

"You don't understand."

"How do you know I don't understand?"

"You're always confident, you're decisive, and you look like it's been smooth sailing......"

"Not really."

"That's probably because you're naturally optimistic, right?"

"I don't have anything to do with the Optimistic Family."

“…… I don't know what you're talking about, but you always give me that feeling. ”

"That's why I say you're not thinking through — it's like building a cage to lock yourself up, and you're a bird with a heavy burden of sin."

“……”

Jax finally stopped talking—he acquiesced to Rod's claim, and for him, choosing to leave at the end of the Battle of Acacia was torture.

Intellectually, it was right to leave – but unfortunately, emotionally, it was never said correctly.

Jax is naturally not a merciless person, when Acacia rebelled, he was the first corresponding person himself, and even he personally cut off the head of the god warrior, if he didn't love Acacia, it would be nonsense.

And now, it was because of this love that he was in a terrible torment—on the one hand, he indulged in the folly of his last moments of running away and not stopping the astrologer in time; On the other hand, he knew very well that he was the last inheritance of Acacia, and until Acacia was revived and the weapon master was inherited, he was not even qualified to die.

Under the crushing of these two parties, Jax's whole spirit was always tense.

The erosion of the Void did cause Jax a lot of trouble, but it was a minor problem compared to the inner torment.

Watching Jax fall into autism again, Rod finally sighed.

"It seems that my persuasion will not work wonderfully."

“……”

"Alright then, I won't say anything more - you are familiar with this piece, help me find out where Kieran's former mage tower is."

"Who are you talking about?!" Jax's eyes widened in disbelief at hearing the name Kiran, "That name—"

"Kieran." Rod nodded, "Your old friend." ”

"How did you know Kieran?"

"It's just a chance." Rod shook his head, "It's useless for me to advise you, but his words should make some sense, right?" ”

“……”

Thinking of the final moments of Acacia's collapse, after Kieran handed over the Rig's lamp to himself, he activated the terrifying time forbidden spell, and Jax had mixed feelings in his heart.

"He didn't die...... He's still here! ”

"Of course he's not dead." Rod's tone was full of pity, "But to be honest, he's in no different state than if he's dead—didn't he ever look for you?" ”

"Actually, I'm not sure I'm sure." There was a rare hesitation in Jax's tone, "Sometimes I seem to see Kieran, he seems to have said something to me, but when I think about it, it is as if I haven't seen him, or can't remember what he said. ”

"He's stripping his time, so it's hard for him to influence Valoran." Rod patted Jax on the shoulder, "So you may have seen him, but ...... Valoran rejected him. ”

Jax looked a little more uplifted by confirming the news of his old friend, but apparently he hadn't understood what Rhodes meant yet - what if Kiran was really rejected by Valoran as he said, and found his former mage tower?

Seeing Jax's doubts, Rod smiled and didn't say much.

In the past, Rhodes really couldn't do anything, but now his ability to control the sands of time is no longer what it used to be, and now Rhodes can confirm that the time peeling spell of Kieran will definitely leave a lot of news that he is interested in!
