A sudden sound suddenly broke the warm scene that had just been brewing.

Before Julian could react, the girl in his arms pushed him away in a panic, raised her gaze and looked over.

A young blond girl looked at the two people with one hand on her hips, a slightly complicated expression on her petite face.

Seeing Akali and Julian looking over, Riel snorted and turned away his head, saying in a calm tone: "If you continue like this, you will be discovered by people patrolling the street."

"..." At this point, even if he hadn't seen her for a few days and there were thousands of words in his heart, Julian could only suppress them temporarily.

As a gray light suddenly appeared under his eyes, his senses opened up, and spiritual energy flowed out of his pupils, quickly passing through all directions around him. He felt much more at ease.

Everything is fine!

Turning to look at the slightly red-faced girl in front of him, Julian asked:

"Akali, is there anything..."

As soon as Julian spoke, Akali already knew what he meant. Her eyes flickered, and the moisture in her eyes was replaced by renewed vigilance. Leaning on the door frame, the girl's eyes quickly swept around, and her eyes briefly focused on Ruier.

make a stay,

He whispered, "Follow me." He took Julian's hand and walked toward the house.

With a glance behind him, Julian stepped forward, and was then taken into a room filled with thatch and debris by Akali.

The two young men and women who came in later saw only a few sword lights passing through the air.

Then the pile of straw instantly scattered, revealing the huge flap hidden underneath.

Akali stepped forward and held down one end of the flap, looking back at Julian. Julian stepped forward knowingly, and the two of them exerted their strength together. The next second, a bottomless cave appeared within a few seconds.

in front of people.

"Let's go." Akali shouted softly, without even looking at the two young men and women who were looking at each other in surprise, she jumped down at the lead.

Then, under Julian's greeting, the three of them entered the cave one after another.

The long and dark corridor, low and narrow, is just enough for the slender bodies of Akali and the two children, but the strong body of Julian seems a bit bloated.

He was always hunched in the cave, and every step forward was difficult. In the dim light, before Julian could make a move, Riel, who was walking in the middle, couldn't help but light up his eyes.

As his eyes lit up, a golden-red halo illuminated a three-meter radius around him.

This scene caused Akali, who was walking at the front, to turn her head and look sideways, with a look of surprise on her face.

Originally, she thought that the two people following Julian were accidentally rescued by him outside these days or for some other reason, but now it seems that these two children are not simple.

Seeing Akali turn around, Rui Er's face showed a touch of pride,

Seeing this expression, Akali wanted to say something. Using magic casually in front of people you meet for the first time in a strange environment may lead to disaster.

However, Julian, who was walking at the end, did not speak. Even if Akali was dissatisfied, she did not speak out.

There were no words along the way, just moving forward in silence.

When the light ahead overwhelmed the brilliance in Ruier's eyes, several people appeared in a huge underground cave.

There is half a square here, but it is empty.

Judging from the burning status of the torches inserted on the wall, it seemed that someone had arrived not long ago.

"It's temporarily safe here."

"This cave is directly connected to the slums in the West City. It will take some time for the Noxian guards to search here."

As the three people behind her entered the cave one after another, Akali inserted the cross sickle in her hand into the crack of the stone. She turned around and looked past Riel and the two who were staring at her. When she fell on Julian

, the eye sockets became red again,

"Julian..." Looking at the tall and burly man in front of her, somehow, the grievance in the girl's heart was like an overturned wine jar. The sour feeling could not be stopped.

Although the two were separated for only a few days, Akali's heart was full of uneasiness.

Even after receiving the gift of world runes, in terms of strength alone, Akali has few opponents in the Immortal Fortress.

But the uneasiness was just because the man in front of me was not beside me.

She was afraid, afraid that he would be injured and captured by the Noxians; she was even more afraid that the half rune would become a gift that they would never see again.

Looking at Julian, Akali finally resisted the urge to rush over at all costs.

She looked at Julian from the beginning bit by bit with those misty eyes. After confirming that the man was no different from the man before they parted a few days ago, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. But as soon as she opened her mouth, the voice sounded again.

Choked:

"Julian, you...where have you been these days? What exactly happened that day? Do you know that there are wanted posters posted everywhere in the city looking for you!"

"Well...it's hard to explain in words." After hearing several questions in one breath, Julian hesitated for a moment while looking at the girl's reddish eyes, and then briefly told what happened after they parted.

After knowing this, he could clearly see that Akali breathed a sigh of relief. The anxiety just now disappeared and turned into a faint anger: "Don't be so impulsive next time! You know that you have been away for a few days.

How worried am I?" Akali gently held Julian's hand, with a bit of pleading in her eyes: "Or at least... at least take me with you! I will definitely not hold you back!"

Lowering her head and turning over the back of Julian's hand, she looked at the teeth marks that were faded but still had shallow traces. The girl caressed them gently and felt slightly lost in thought:

"I didn't know what happened that day, but I saw you leaving in a hurry. Immediately afterwards, the guards blocked the street and started checking door to door.

I...I want to find you after I escape,

But before we reached the west city gate, all the streets were already filled with guards. Those people closed the gate of the capital and activated the hidden reconnaissance guards...I...I couldn't get out for a while, so I had to find a place to hide.

Julian, you really got into big trouble this time!"

"There is panic everywhere in the city now. There are soldiers checking identities on every street. I have seen many people being taken away these days."

Thinking of what she had seen in the past few days, Akali couldn't help but show some worry on her face. However, when she saw the silence on Julian's face, she immediately turned around and comforted him pretending to be relaxed:

"However, fortunately those Noxians did not see your face. The portrait on the wanted poster has no other similarities with you except gray hair and gray eyes. This is really the most...

What a lucky thing!"

Using three "most"s in one breath, the girl seemed to want to use a light tone to erase the dull atmosphere.

Raising his head, meeting those soft eyes, and looking at the cautious look on the girl's face, Julian suddenly realized that at some point, his emotions had begun to gradually affect other people. When he was silent, not only he

Akali in front, and Riel and Gabriel behind him were also relatively speechless.

At this moment, he suddenly blamed himself:

"No, it won't happen again." He put away his silence and forced a smile. When his stretched out hand gently fell on the girl's shoulder, at that moment, he saw the light in the girl's eyes.
