Runeterra: I really know a little bit about everything

Chapter 111 arrives, the God of Thunder and War!

Unlike any of the Old Gods of the Freljord, Volibear, the God of Thunder, is the only Old God to have his own kin.

Ursine tribe.

Werebears are Volibear's creations. They have strong bodies, sharp fangs, and the power of thunder derived from Volibear.

As the ancient god of thunder and war, Volibear's creations were just as violent and murderous as he was.

If it weren't for the fact that the Ursine tribe's territory is located in the far north of the Freljord and is separated from the Freljord continent by a sea of ​​ice, then more people would definitely have died at the hands of the Ursine tribe.

Because of the nature of the Ursines and the countless crimes they have committed, most Freljordians will stay away from the Ursines as much as possible.

But today, Winter's Claw is about to hold a ceremony to summon the bear tribe to come!
The already desperate Winter's Claws must cross the river and attack the city in front of them, otherwise there will be no other end for them than death.

In this case, summoning the Ursine became Sejuani's only option.

Except for the Ursines, no one else in Freljord is willing to help Winter's Claw. Those ancient gods don't care about the life and death of mortals at all.

Although summoning the Ursine also had to pay a certain price, Sejuani had no choice.

As long as the city can be breached, whatever the Ursines want to do is up to them. She just wants to get supplies.

On the snow, a huge bonfire roared, the flames as tall as three people.

Sejuani's army stood around the bonfire formation, looking at the flames in front of them with fatigue and doubt.

Sejuani stood next to Steelmane, and Udyr was behind Sejuani.

Even at this time, Udyr still did not give up persuading Sejuani. He wanted to make Sejuani understand the cunning and murderous nature of the Ursines, but Sejuani, who was forced to a dead end, obviously could no longer listen.

Seeing the persistence on his war mother's face, Udyr clenched his fists and fully mobilized his strength to the extreme.

He knew the origins of the Ursines better than Sejuani, and now he could only pray that they only summoned the Ursines, not...
In front, the firewood from the bonfire formed an interlocking triangle in a knotted pattern. The high-stacked firewood formed burning spiers, and around the spiers were the only remaining supplies of Winter's Claw.

In the center of the flame spire, the Frost Priest held an ancient wooden bowl high in his hand, and the pungent smell of blood was constantly coming from the bowl.

The shawl made of crow feathers in her hand was put into the bowl, and the hot animal blood flowed out, carving strange patterns on the ground.

When the emblem symbolizing the Ursine tribe was drawn, the Frost Priest splashed the blood in the bowl to every corner around, and at the same time, a low and suppressed chanting began to sound from her mouth.

The ashes of the bonfire flew into the sky, and little sparks of light jumped upward, pointing to an approaching storm.

Suddenly, the voice of the Frost Priest, who was still reciting her prayers in a low voice, became extremely thick, and a strange giant bear roar began to come from her mouth!
"Coming!" Udyr growled beside Sejuani.

Sejuani also saw the dark clouds gradually spreading towards this side from a distance, and there seemed to be countless shadows flickering in them.

"Crack!"

The first thunder fell from the sky and struck the flame spire, followed by more and more dense thunder.

The entire world became extremely oppressive. Whether it was the frost wolf, the war mammoth, or Sejuani's steel mane, they all began to roar as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

After that, Sejuani noticed a low roar starting to come from the forest ahead. An upright bear-man rushed out of the forest and came to the front of Winter's Claw. After him, there were more bear-men. Coming in droves.

Although Sejuani had heard the legend of the Ursines more than once, this was the first time she had actually seen one.

It was an upright bear-like creature that was more than two meters tall, covered in brown and white fur, wearing iron armor, and had sharp teeth.

And right behind these bear-men, there was a huge figure nearly five meters tall, covered in lightning and armor.

Just when he came to the front of the bear team, all the bears stood neatly in a row, exhaling white mist from their mouths, and waited quietly.

He didn't look at Sejuani, let alone the sacrifice in front of him, but looked straight at Udyr.

"Udyr, my old friend!"

Sejuani frowned suddenly and quickly turned to look at Udyr behind her.

Udyr's face was extremely gloomy, and he roared in a deep voice: "Lord of the Hunting Beast!"

"Why suppress your talent anymore? Udyr."

The giant Ursine, whom Udyr called the Hunting Lord, laughed cruelly: "Look at these Ursines around me. They were all your teachers and your fellow tribesmen, but now, they are all Ursines and have With more power than the Beast Spirit Walker!"

"!!!"

Sejuani was even more surprised when she heard the words of the Hunting Lord. She knew that there must be a huge secret hidden in it.

Sejuani wanted to ask Udyr for clarification, but at this moment, the hunting lord withdrew his gaze and looked at Sejuani.

"Daughter of Winter's Claw, what do you want?" The Hunting Lord's voice was hoarse and full of blood.

"I ask for the power of the Ursine."

Sejuani said word by word: "Please fight side by side with me and defeat the city ahead!"

"You are asking the wrong person, Winter's Claw."

The hunter lord's huge eyes suddenly flashed with a pious light, and he whispered: "I have no right to command the bear people, no one can, except my god."

Sejuani frowned slightly: "As his representative, now the leader of the bear people, I can accept your request."

"I am not qualified to represent him, I am just his tool. If you ask, then go and talk to my god!"

The moment Lord Hunting Animals finished speaking, a bolt of thunder suddenly flashed through the dark clouds above and resounded throughout the heaven and earth.

"My gods are with me!"

"!!!"

At that moment, Udyr's body began to tremble violently, and the animal spirits in his body began to agitate continuously, but this agitation only lasted for a moment, and then began to become weaker and weaker, until it was completely disappear.Just like all beasts facing the absolute god, all the beast spirits in Udyr hid out of fear.

There was an arrogant and primitive will in his mind. This will was constantly destroying Udyr's psychological defense. The roar of a giant bear began to come out of Udyr's mouth, and there were extremely obvious signs on the surface of his body. The shadow of the giant bear appeared.

The scene that Udyr least wanted to see happened.

he came.

In the woods behind the hunting lord, huge black-leafed trees were crackling and being pushed down continuously. A figure several times taller than a war mammoth was walking in the woods.

It was a city built of pitch-black muscles. Its ancient and broken ancient armor was composed of dark metal plates, and the blood stains left by countless battles had condensed into a thick layer of blood scabs on it.

There were many broken weapons stuck on his back and shoulders, all of them rusty due to time.

Half of its face had no flesh and blood, revealing sparkling white bones, teeth and horns, and strange black blood was dripping from its mouth.

The giant war bear was getting closer and closer, and the dark clouds accumulating endless storms in the sky followed closely behind.

Finally, he walked out of the woods and came to Sejuani and Udyr.

He stood in front of Winter's Claw, his strange eyes filled with thunder and lightning, looking directly at Sejuani and Udyr in front of him.

"Daughter of Winter's Claw, what do you want?"

Looking at the giant bear that was nearly 30 meters tall in front of her and seemed to have experienced countless wars, Sejuani had a deep fear in her eyes.

Sejuani never expected that in addition to the bear people, she would use the few sacrifices to summon this ancient god who had lived for who knows how many years!

Normally, it would be very difficult to summon the Ursine tribe with only a few sacrifices. If you want to summon Volibear, the God of Thunder, the sacrifices required will be extremely terrifying.

Even if you offer enough sacrifices, Volibear may not respond to your call, but now, he has actually appeared in front of Sejuani.

What Sejuani couldn't understand even more was what happened to Volibear to become what he is today.

Compared with the God of Thunder recorded on the scroll, the Volibear standing in front of her now was no different from a ghost or god.

Can anyone really destroy an ancient god to this extent?
Behind Sejuani, although the Winter's Claw warriors outnumbered the Ursine by a hundred times, her warriors were terrified in front of Volibear.

Huge war mammoths, veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles, they have fought people, trolls, and Skaldvastaya, but now they are all trembling.

Looking at the giant war bear in front of her, Sejuani's hand tightly grasped the ponytail on the side of Steel Mane's head. Gradually, her eyes began to become crazy and full of ambition.

"God of Thunder and War, I ask for your power, and I ask you to fight alongside the Winter's Claw!"

"Who will you offer as a sacrifice?"

Volibear's voice sounded again. When he said this, his voice was low and depressed, and a strange light flashed in his huge eyes.

Sejuani raised her head and looked at Volibear across the lightning and snow.

There seemed to be nothing left in Sejuani's eyes except obsession and madness.

"My one"

"No, Sejuani!" Suddenly, Udyr's roar interrupted Sejuani's words.

With such close contact with Volibear, Udyr felt like he was going crazy. He could hardly control the violent will in his body.

This is one of the most terrifying abilities derived from the God of Thunder and War.

His extremely aggressive will will violently break into the body of the beast spirit walkers and replace the beast spirits in their bodies, turning the beast spirit walkers into bear-men.

The bearmen behind the Hunting Lord are almost all beast spirit walkers whose forms have been changed by Volibear's will!
Once upon a time, Udyr had witnessed with his own eyes that his own kind had abandoned their human sanity under the violent will and turned into violent bear-men.

It can be said that most of the Ursines in the Ursine tribe are Ursines after being transformed by Volibear. Only a few Ursines like the Hunting Lords were created by Volibear himself. Their power is stronger than ordinary Ursines. a lot of.

Now, Volibear's violent will is constantly trying to invade Udyr's mind.

But the results of Udyr's years of training in Ionia finally worked. Udyr resisted this erosion and gradually regained some sanity.

It was also at this time that he sternly stopped what Sejuani was about to say.

Udyr roared at Volibear in a deep voice: "We only sacrifice the war and the people who died in the war, Spirit Bear, don't try to get involved with my war mother and people!"

"Roar!"

Volibear suddenly let out an angry roar, and the sound wave from his mouth even directly overturned the Winter's Claw army, and made the Frostwolves lie on the ground in fear.

Just a little bit away from Volibear getting the perfect sacrifice.

The three ice sisters, the people who ruthlessly plundered his faith, the people he hated the most, what a wonderful scene it would be if they could be reincarnated into bear-men.

But it's a pity that Udyr still saved his war mother after all.

At this moment, Sejuani's body shook violently, and when she came back to her senses, she felt unprecedented fear in her heart.

Only then did she truly understand the horror of an ancient god who had just come close to sacrificing herself and her people to Volibear.

Udyr came to Sejuani's side and stopped her behind her. At the same time, she looked at Volibear in front:
"God of Thunder and War, will you agree to our request? Will you be afraid of war?"

"Whoo~"

Volibear exhaled a burst of hot breath from his half-remaining nose. He slowly raised his head, looking through the snow curtain and looking at the city ahead.

After a long time, Volibear withdrew his gaze.

"I will never be afraid of war!"
