Chapter 265: The Rain Passes and the Sky Clears
The rain on the island came and went as fast as it came—it didn't take long for the rain to clear.
Rhodes and his party finally put an end to the madness.
The Battle of Shadow Isle is over.
The mad are ruined by their ambitions, judged for the wicked, remembered for the brave, and Rod, the biggest winner, has finally achieved his goal.
But when he returned to the spring, Rhodes found ...... There is only one bowl of water left in the spring.
"Jana?!" Rod's eyes widened, "You're in that rain...... Use all the remaining spring water?! ”
"That's right." Cana nodded innocently, "I remember you said that one bowl of the water of life on Fuguang Island is enough for you to recover ......"
"That's money," Rhodes crouched down with his head in his hands, letting out a painful wail, "I can get 100,000 gold hexes for selling this thing to the Noxians, 100,000!" ”
"Put away your flamboyant acting—" Jana waved her hand in disgust, "I don't know you yet, there's no way you can sell the spring water, let alone sell it to the Noxians." ”
"Huh?" Rod was stunned, "How do you know?" ”
"How I don't know." Jana pouted, "You bastard-looking guy is actually a really good guy......"
"I'm not a good person!" Hearing the "good guy", Rod jumped up like a cat with his tail stepped on, "I'm not a good person, and I don't apply for a card!" ”
Jana apparently didn't know what the Good Guy Card was, so she could only sigh.
"Okay, okay - these springs are useless there anyway, and they will be coveted, how good it would be to use it on Fuguang Island."
In the case of the wooden boat, Rhodes ...... I can only admit it.
Anyway, the original purpose was achieved, and now I still have such an island, and there are no 100,000 ...... That's gone!
This is the loser of his own family, Rhodes...... Confessed.
(Now that I can't beat Cana, what if I don't recognize it?) )
Shaking his head, Rhodes didn't want to rest on the mess and instead began to deal with his own life force problem.
The eaux-de-vie are a good thing, but it is not enough to drink them for them to work—and Rhodes is not in the habit of drinking human bathwater.
As for what to do with the eaux-de-vie...... It also depends on the flame of life.
Rhodes turned himself into a fire man, then reached out and touched the bowl of water.
The moment the flame of life in Rod's hand touched the water of life, the bowl of water of life ...... It's alive!
The water of life and Rhodes ignited together, and the same incandescent flames finally fused together.
After lifting the ascension, Rhodes was a little dizzy under the effect of the huge life force, and at this moment his face was flushed, dizzy, and almost unsteady on his feet.
His pale hair, which had turned pale due to overdraft, was once again black, and Rhodes finally replenished his vitality, and even had a surplus.
But at this time, Rod's heart was not filled with joy, but with strangeness.
The water of life...... It's just one point, dizzy, I'm back to the big hairy country of Blue Star - vodka?!
Turning to look at Jana, Rod gave himself a slap in the face.
Hallucinations, damn hallucinations!
……………………
After solving the most critical vitality problem, Rhodes's next thing was much simpler.
Mokai has gone to all corners of the island to spread his children and grandchildren, and by the way, has taken the chattering Jinx with him - Rhodes finally has time to deal with the legacy of the last magical era.
Yorick had already told Rhodes everything he knew about the True Knowing Sect, and the rest was probably left to Rhodes to figure out on his own.
Before he could do so, Rod plunged headlong into the makeshift laboratory.
Rhodes on Fuguang Island seems to have returned to Dalaran, and has restarted his exploration and comprehension of magic and knowledge.
I have to say that the things of the whole era of magic are still very desirable, although Rhodes is a generation of grandmasters in the plastic energy system, but in other fields, Rhodes is extremely limited in strength compared to mage apprentices.
And now, Rhodes can finally make up for himself.
Of course, it's impossible to expect Rhodes to become the great magician of the whole department, but ...... At the very least, you need to know some kind of magic like human immobilization, right?
Now that Rhodes has basically lost the ability to use frost magic within the range of plastic energy-based magic, in this case, Rhodes not only has a single means of combat, but also is extremely lacking in control.
In this case, Rhodes should at least learn control magic, right?
What, you said to send a letter to Ryz?
This is not in a hurry, and Rod will naturally keep his promise to Yorick, but so far Rod doesn't even know where Ruiz is, and there is no way to talk about sending letters.
Let's improve our strength first.
While Rhodes was studying, Jana watching, and Jinx messing around, time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, it's six months.
During this time, Jana returned to Bilgewater and issued an oracle stating that the Night of the Eclipse had come to an end - after that, several daring pirates came to Fuguang Island.
What they saw was a wonderful paradise.
Rhodes had followed Yorick's method and activated all the buildings on the island that were still usable, and they had lost most of their functionality and could only be considered defensive towers for now - but for now, they were strong enough.
(The eaux-de-vie seem to enhance the activation of these buildings, which is a bonus.) )
After a pirate with unclean hands and feet was crushed by a suddenly revitalized building, the rest of the guys got in order.
And the news that Shadow Island had become Fuguang Island soon spread throughout Bilgewater.
Although the location of Shadow Island is not on the current mainstream shipping route, it will be different after it becomes Fuguang Island.
Ships departing from Birgewater to Ionia no longer had to make a big detour into Noxian territorial waters, and the huge island was bound to become an important transit point for Valoran's maritime trade.
Moreover, the news of Jana and Rhodes is a shot in the arm for the reform of the Twin Cities, and some of the people who are ready to move have died down once again - and unbeknownst to them, their names have been recorded by Camille.
However, fate did not seem to intend for Rod to enjoy this rare leisure.
One day, while Rhodes was doing an experiment, Jinx and Mokai, who were playing wildly, appeared outside the lab.
"Hey, Rhodes - look, the spider I caught isn't big!"
Originally, Rhodes was too lazy to talk to Jinx, but an unfamiliar voice still made him walk out of the laboratory.
"Let go of me, Big Tree—I was sent by the Pale Lady to find His Majesty Lot! Something happened to Noxus! ”
