Silas was originally a child who grew up in a remote town called Brinktown in Demacia.
Because he possessed extremely special abilities, after being discovered by the demon hunters and brought back to Xiongdu, he was not abolished from magic by the demon destroyer using special potions and then exiled to a foreign demon destroyer slum.
On the contrary, it was precisely because of his outstanding talent in detecting magic that he was selected and trained by the magic seekers, and was eventually spared from becoming a cripple and then exiled, and was able to serve Demacia as a magic seeker.
However, Silas, who was only in his teens at the time, did not have a firm heart, and his indecision harmed him.
During a demon-hunting mission eight years ago, because of his hesitation, the demon-hunter Marseno, who had always taken good care of him, was attacked by withering magic and was in danger.
They and another fellow demon hunter, Vanis, went to a rural farmer's family to seek help, but unexpectedly discovered that the farmer's little daughter was also a wizard.
Because his companions could not survive and were killed by magic, and because of his own hatred for magic, the emotionally agitated Vanis wanted to eliminate this "threat".
Out of instinct, the little girl released magic, but most of it was absorbed by Vanis's magic-forbidden lime seal, and it had no effect.
He swung the magic-suppressing stone club at the little girl's head, enough to kill her with one blow.
Silas, wanting to protect her, rushed over and held her in his arms, attempting to block his companion's fatal blow.
However, he had no idea of his unique mage talent of being able to absorb magic.
As Silas absorbed all the magic power in the little girl's body, he was unable to control his own power and exploded.
Deadly flames gushed out from his hands, instantly engulfing the entire farmhouse. Three lives died in his hands, and their bodies turned into unrecognizable charcoal.
Later, Silas was captured while on the run and sentenced to life imprisonment. He has been imprisoned in the Mithril Pavilion dungeon of the Demon Hunter for eight years.
Li Lin didn't quite understand why Silas was able to escape from prison even though he hadn't met Lux.
Without the help of the eldest daughter of the Crown Guard family, Silas would not have known the principle of the Forbidden Magic Stone's "absorbing rather than suppressing magic", nor would he have been able to absorb enough magic to escape.
After all, Lux can wake Galio up with just a touch, and as long as she stays by his side, she can continue to provide him with energy for action.
In addition, the family learned that Miss Crown Guard had secretly met with the most dangerous wizard prisoner in Xiongdu, so Silas's life sentence was changed to death penalty. The execution ground touched Silas again, giving him magic enough to escape.
In addition, since the king's good brother Barrett was killed by a mage in the original world line while rescuing the prince, he was so sad and angry that he greatly delegated power to the Demon Hunter Society and vigorously hunted down the mages of Demacia, causing panic among the people for six years.
Under the combined influence, the Demacia Mage Riot is a major event that is set in stone.
But now with Li Lin's intervention, Barrett returned to Xiongdu safely, and with the legendary winged protector Morgana, the king did not give much power to the demon hunters to persecute the mages, and even had the idea of abolishing the Forbidden Magic Code.
Logically speaking, a mage riot should be impossible.
But judging from the current situation, Silas still escaped from prison, but it was not just a "coincidence" as originally thought, which was the inevitable outbreak of long-term accumulated conflicts.
Is it Eldred...
Li Lin frowned and thought for a moment.
Less than two days later, under the 24-hour close surveillance of stealth drones, Eldred temporarily behaved very normally.
However, Li Lin believed that if he could capture the king's assassin alive and deal with the wizard riot in front of him, this old fox would soon lose his patience and show his true colors.
Although Eldred is a son-in-law of the Crownguard family and is married to Grand Marshal Tiana, the Crownguard family has loyally served the Lightshield royal family for a hundred years. A foreigner who marries into the family cannot shake the king's trust in them. However, their external reputation may be slightly damaged.
At that time, Li Lin only needs to pass the intelligence captured by the drone directly to the king, and he can directly sentence Eldred to treason and rebellion, and the death penalty is inevitable.
If Barrett's investigation goes smoothly and he finds evidence of collusion between the Demon Hunters and Noxus, this organization will be completely replaced and there will be almost no major obstacles to revising the Forbidden Magic Code.
As for Li Lin actually using a drone to secretly spy on the nobles?
As long as Eldred is found guilty of treason, the king will be too busy thanking him to hold him accountable for this mistake.
The mages below have almost all come out. Under the leadership of Silas, their direction is very clear, which is the eastern city where the king and the prince are, not the Castle of Dawn.
Li Lin narrowed his eyes, and was basically certain that this mage riot was indeed caused by an insider from within Xiongdu.
When he noticed Silas using magic to attack two guards who were trying to stop them, he didn't hesitate any longer and immediately dropped from the sky to block them.
As the scorching fire magic instantly swept across the deserted street several meters ahead, the red flames were reflected in Silas' eyes, and most of the mages behind him cheered.
"We should let these damned lackeys have a taste of our power!"
"Burn them! Burn them to death!"
"Well done, Silas!"
"Down with the damn Lightshield Royal Family and liberate Demacia!"
“…”
Everyone's attention was attracted by the flames rising into the sky, and almost no one noticed Li Lin falling from the sky into the flames.
