The capital of Demacia.
A 12-member Ranger reconnaissance team returned safely to the capital under Galio's escort.
In order to avoid causing chaos, Li Lin's air combat machines Storm all entered optical camouflage mode. They did not see the scene of thousands of floating robots deploying energy barriers to protect the capital.
When the heavy city gate opened, they looked back and gazed into the distance.
One of the female Rangers asked in a trilling voice, "Is that... the Protector Sister?"
The sudden energy shock wave just now made her terrified.
Although the cavalry is equivalent to the superior officer to the ordinary soldiers in the Demacia camp and is considered the lowest class of nobility, they are the backbone of the defense of Demacia and the protection of Xiongdu from enemy infiltration, and must be strictly selected before they can enter.
Rangers usually have equipment sponsored by a certain family and basically fight alone. They must be accompanied by an agile, fierce and intelligent animal companion to fight alongside them. Most of them are birds, but there are also many beasts.
Such group travel missions were mainly ordered by the Grand Marshal or the King, and in most cases were used for intelligence gathering.
This female Ranger has no fear of death; she's willing to sacrifice her life heroically against a rogue Noxian spy squad, a fate she longs for.
But it was too frustrating for her to die from this energy shock wave that was far beyond human power and could easily destroy half of Xiongdu in one blow.
What's more, that was just the aftermath of the battle between the angel sisters.
The feeling of powerlessness in the face of divine power terrified her, and she never wanted to experience it again.
"It seems that it should be correct." The temporary captain of the Rangers responded while squinting into the distance.
The aftermath of the astonishing magical collision frightened their horses, causing them to fall off and flee in all directions.
In addition, Galio had to fold his wings to protect them under his body and absorb the magic coming from behind. In order to survive, they had to run on foot all the way back to Xiongdu.
Just when they were about to arrive at Xiongdu, a beam of light descended from the distant sky. They all saw it with their own eyes, and it crushed the blue light balls that were falling from the sky like raindrops at a very fast speed.
The brightness of that beam of light crushed the white light above the sky, easily piercing through the darkness, as if it could make everything in the world dim.
Even though they were hundreds of kilometers apart, they still felt a suffocating feeling of being unable to breathe. Their entire bodies trembled, and there was only fear in their hearts, as if they were facing a giant god from outer space who was about to bring down the punishment of world destruction.
But now, the beams of light descending from heaven had long since stopped, and there was no more sound of fighting in the distance, as if the battle had already been decided.
Galio flew away again without even having time to say hello, leaving behind only the 12 rangers who were still a little frightened.
"Who's winning?"
"I don't know...but His Majesty said the Duke was there too. Will he be okay?"
"Your Excellency the Duke? Which Duke?"
"Li Lin, Lord Duke Li, awakened Galio. His Majesty conferred the title of Duke on him on the spot at the Battle Monument Road."
"Huh?! How did he know that?"
"Could it be that he is an extremely powerful mage?"
"Idiot, how is this possible? Have you forgotten our Forbidden Magic Codex?"
"As long as you join the Demon Hunter Society and pledge allegiance to the Light Shield Royal Family, even if you don't have magic..."
"—Shh! Don't say that!"
"It's impossible to use magic anyway. I don't know anything else."
Just as a few people were chattering, the door opened completely, and the one who greeted them was King Jarvan III in golden armor!
"Your Majesty!"
The twelve rangers clenched their fists in fear, crossed their arms in front of their chests and bowed. Even their beast companions who followed them lowered their heads.
It was the first time for most of them to face the king in person, not to mention that he was surrounded by powerful and influential people.
"Are you all okay?" Jarvan III walked quickly forward with the support of a group of Fearless Vanguards and greeted them with concern.
He was accompanied by Jarvan IV, Xin Zhao, Garen who was still in the city, Barrett, Tiana, Pete, Eldred, and some other great nobles.
"Your Majesty, we all returned safely under Galio's protection," the Ranger Captain replied, "but our horses were frightened..."
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm glad they're back." Jarvan III breathed a sigh of relief, but then his expression turned serious again. "Have you found out what's going on? How's Duke Li? Who are he and Morgana facing?"
The Ranger Captain didn't hesitate. "Using a telescope, I observed that the enemy was wearing gold and silver armor. I couldn't see his face, but he had a pair of white wings on his back and held a huge blue sword in his hand..."
"That creature was flying in the sky, facing Morgana, the Protector, from afar. The light and darkness in the sky were the result of the magic clashing between the two."
"What about Li Lin, is he okay?" The king was very worried about this issue.
You know, Li Lin not only saved the prince, but also healed the eyes of the royal guards that were blinded by magic. Even Morgana came back because of him, not to mention that he also awakened Galio today and even has a way to keep him awake for a long time.
Not only to Demacia, Li Lin is also a legend in Piltover.
What's more, there is a disaster star who likes him very much by his side - Twilight Star Spirit.
If anything happened to him, Jarvan III would not only feel bad himself, but he would also be unable to explain to Piltover, which has always been neutral. If he offended Zuo Yin...
