Under the scorching sun, even the rivers in the desert are constantly steaming, emitting transparent hot air continuously.
Two huge Skarash and a camel carrying Li Lin, Kassadin and Sivir respectively, strolled along the River of Life.
When the water of life from the Dawn Oasis in the Imperial Capital was re-injected into this river, the water that was originally full of yellow sand and slightly turbid became clear and transparent again.
Faintly, a strange emerald green glow can be seen.
Li Lin and Kassadin bid farewell to Azir and left the imperial capital, then headed east along the River of Life.
According to the original plan, they were going to go along the Fuk River in the south of the City of the Sun to Zerima, and then cross the mountains in the southeast to the Valley of Songs.
This was the route Kassadin had to take to return home a few years ago.
But Sivir, who sneaked away from Azir and caught up with them, said that the east bank of the river had been occupied by the Sha's Aksai and was very dangerous.
Kassadin, who had not traveled in the desert for a long time, naturally didn't know this.
As for walking along the west bank of the Fuk River...
To reach Zerima, you have to take a long detour, which is a waste of time.
Li Lin's time was limited, so at Sivir's suggestion, they planned to go to Vikora in the east first, and then bypass the "Sea of Bones" Calixe to head to the Marrow Seal Market.
Originally, Sivir planned to leave in her folding power armor and return to Nashramé.
But after trying it on, she discovered that this set of armor was tailor-made for her by Li Lin. It didn't fit her very well and its performance was too poor.
Sivir thought that this power armor was just a trick used by Li Lin to appease her, and wanted him to make a set of armor for her that was at least as good as Kassadin's.
But in this vast and boundless place, how could Li Lin, who had no materials or equipment, make a power armor for her?
Under Sivir's strong request and Li Lin's suggestion, she finally joined the team to fight against the Void.
Once everything is done and they return to Nashramé, he will start making it for her.
It was past noon, and the three of them had lunch and rested for a while in the shade by the river before setting off again on their journey.
Vikaola is about half a month's journey from the City of the Sun.
The three of them had been walking for more than ten days and were about to reach their destination.
On the camel, feeling somewhat bored, Sivir looked up at Li Lin sitting quietly on Skaras, and suddenly thought of a question:
"By the way, didn't Azir say he sent two sand soldiers to accompany you to check the situation in the void? Why haven't I seen them before?"
"Of course it has been integrated into the yellow sand? Don't you even feel a sour taste in your mouth?" Li Lin, who was thinking about his next set of armor, was suddenly interrupted by her, and his tone was a little impatient.
Sivir didn't seem to mind his attitude, but continued to ask with curiosity, "Can you call them out? Or is Azir still controlling them?"
"If he can control the sand soldiers from such a distance, do you think you can still follow us?"
"Well, that seems to be the case..."
After meeting Azir and confirming that she was of royal blood, Sivir's mentality underwent a subtle change to some extent.
For example, although she used to talk a lot, the topics were all focused on how to complete the task and where to go to have fun after getting the gold coins.
Li Lin's face was filled with helplessness, "And I can't control them, Azir has already given them orders.
"After encountering the Ax'Sai in the Sea of Bones and the Void rift in the Valley of Song, they will return to Azir after gathering intelligence."
Xiweier was stunned for a moment, and her expression suddenly turned into horror.
"Huh?! You're still planning on heading to the Sea of Bones? Are you crazy? You don't think your power armor and these three robots can defeat an endless stream of Sha-like Ex-Sai, do you?"
"Don't worry about Sivir, we're just wandering around the periphery," Kassadin explained. "It's enough to kill an Axe and then send a message back by the sand soldiers."
"But Ax'Sai isn't acting alone!" Sivir strongly disapproved of their risky idea. "What's more, the Sha have an even more terrifying existence..."
"But it usually hangs out in the heart of Calixae, doesn't it?"
Li Lin's words made Xiweier hesitate for a moment, "That's right..."
"That's enough," he chuckled. "Kassadin has the Blade of the Underworld, my Power Mech has weapons, and with three Storms, it should be more than enough to lure an Axe out and kill him, right?"
“…”
Sivir was silent.
If targeting only one Ax'Sai, three well-trained mercenaries can kill it head-on.
The most difficult thing about them is their ability to lurk, similar to that of the Sand Drifter. Most people die in their sneak attacks.
But the Axe also have very obvious weaknesses. They only have keen perception and hearing systems, but no vision.
If you're well prepared, trapping and killing an Axe isn't a problem...
Sivir pondered for a long time, then sighed and said, "Alright, as long as you don't go too deep into the Sea of Bones and do something stupid."
…
…
Vikaula is located at the junction of the main channel of the River of Life and the branch of the Kehali River.
This place was destroyed long ago during the Darkin War by the fallen god warriors who conquered all directions.
Today, most Shurimans believe that Vekaura is simply a camp built on the ruins of an old, abandoned city, providing a resting place for passing travelers and expeditions.
