Runeterra: I really know a little bit about everything

Chapter 223 The strongest god of death! On the eve of the war!

"Is this the Well of Reincarnation?"

In the empty and desolate hall of the Immortal Fortress, Zuo Chi and Swain stood side by side in front of an ancient well that had been covered in dust for an unknown number of years.

This ancient well is located in the center of the entire Immortal Fortress, as if the entire Immortal Fortress was built on it.

Today, the ancient well has long been sealed by thick iron chains and steel plates, and there are many complicated magic lines engraved around it.

Swain was also staring at the ancient well in front of him, and he nodded slowly:

"Mordekaiser originally connected to the underworld through the Well of Reincarnation, but this well has long been buried, and countless seals have been placed on it."

"We don't know when Mordekaiser will return again, and all we have to do is guard the well and make sure Mordekaiser's skull doesn't get pieced together with the armor."

Listening to Swain's words, Zuo Chi seemed to have thought of something. He turned his head and looked at Swain:

"What is the relationship between you and Black Rose now?"

According to Zuo Chi’s understanding, the reason why Swain had his arm cut off and his kneecaps shaved off by Irelia on the battlefield in Ionia was precisely because LeBlanc manipulated the emperor at the time to secretly trip him up. Wanted Swain to die on the battlefield.

Because Swain was already aware of the existence of the Black Rose organization at that time, the Black Rose had to kill him to silence him.

Swain's unit was used as bait deep into the enemy's ranks, only to draw the Ionian army into a circle and then annihilate it in one fell swoop.

But just when Swain risked his life to attract the enemy, the Noxian army that should have appeared in time was suddenly transferred away, and the purpose of the transfer was actually to serve the then emperor Braun Darkway. I seek the elixir!

If it weren't for Ram's appearance, Swain might have stayed on the battlefield of Ionia forever.

Therefore, LeBlanc is almost a life-and-death enemy to Swain, and for Swain, a fanatical patriot, the Black Rose has secretly controlled the imperial power for hundreds of years. This is no different from the traitor and traitor. It is a must. A being to be killed.

But now LeBlanc also occupies a seat in the Trifali Council created by Swain!

Long-distance strategy - Commander Swain!

Force - Darius, Hand of Noxus!

Cunning - The leader of the Black Rose, the pale witch LeBlanc!

This made Zuo Chi a little curious about Swain's thoughts.

Upon hearing Zuo Chi's question, Swain's tone was filled with hatred, but it was restrained enough:

"The fact that the Black Rose controls the imperial power of Noxus will never be ignored, and the fact that they almost killed me will never be forgotten by me. However, today's empire still needs the power of the Black Rose."

"Whether it is a blood magic creation or the Black Rose Academy, Noxus today is still inseparable from the Black Rose."

Swain slowly raised his arm, and he stared at his left hand that had been replaced by a devil's hand. This arm seemed to always remind him of what the black rose had done to him.

"The reason why I let LeBlanc enter the Trifali Council is precisely because I want to bring the Black Rose, who has been hidden behind the scenes for hundreds of years, into the public eye, so that they will no longer be so unscrupulous when doing certain things."

"I can clearly feel that LeBlanc still has not given up taking away everything I have gained from me. However, as long as she is still useful to Noxus, I will not completely break up with her."

Swain's words gradually stopped. Zuo Chi looked at his back and suddenly felt that the leader of Noxus was carrying too many things.

Unlike Darius, who represents force and is only responsible for fighting everywhere, Swain not only has to coordinate everything in the Noxus Empire, but he also needs to always be on guard against black hands from within the empire.

What's more, he still carries Ram's overwhelming hatred for Mordekaiser.

"Help me settle Belea and Annie, and Riel should come with me."

After waving his hand towards Swain, Zuo Chi was ready to leave, and he was going to take Ruier with him.

Compared to Belea and Anne, Riel is too important to Black Rose, so it is safer to keep her with you.

Looking at Zuo Chi's back, Swain seemed to have thought of something, and he suddenly said:

"I can show you the way to meet a person. Perhaps in today's Runeterra, besides LeBlanc, he should be the person who knows Mordekaiser best."

"Ok?"

Zuo Chi turned around with interest: "Who?"

"A Yodel mage. After Mordekaiser was sealed, he determined to be the biggest villain in the world. He should now be 'doing evil' in the villages on the edge of the imperial capital."

When he said the word "do evil", there was an obvious smile in Swain's tone.

"Forehead"

After listening to Swain's explanation, a mini figure wearing a big mage hat, holding a staff, and his whole body covered in mage robes gradually appeared in Zuo Chi's mind.

The evil little mage--King Wei Jia!

When he thought of Veigar, Zuochi instantly understood why he did evil in Noxus, but Swain ignored it.

It’s really because the way Vega does evil is too weird.

"Tell me the coordinates of his stronghold."

After learning the specific location of Veigar from Swain, Zuochi was ready to leave.

When he came to the three girls, they were all looking at Zuo Chi.

"Human, are you leaving now?" Belea raised her head and blinked at Zuo Chi innocently.

Zuo Chi smiled and winked at Belea: "What's wrong? It's going to be dawn soon. Is Belea ready to eat my food reserve?"

"This"

Belea took a step back slightly, the thumbs of her little feet rubbing against each other constantly.

If she had known that Zuo Chi would be a being who could turn her into ashes with just a raise of his hand, how could she have regarded him as a reserve food!

After thinking for a while, Belea looked at Zuo Chi again and muttered in a low voice:

"I'm not too hungry now. Why don't I wait until next time"

"Okay, then feel free to tell me when you're hungry."

Raising his hand and rubbing Belea's head, Zuo Chi looked at Annie again:

"It's best not to go out to cause trouble and kill people during this period, otherwise I can't guarantee that you will be captured. But Tibbers should have been frightened, and he probably won't go out and run around with you."

Feeling the fearful emotion of Tibbers in her arms, Anne quickly nodded obediently:

"I'll be good."

If he hadn't known what Anne had done, he might have been deceived by her appearance as a good girl.

Zuo Chi estimated that there were dozens, if not a hundred, people who died at the hands of Annie and Tibbers, so her appearance as a harmless little girl was not believable at all.

Without saying anything more, Zuo Chi turned around and led Rui Er towards the exit of the Immortal Fortress.

When passing by Evelin, before Zuo Chi could say anything more, she followed Zuo Chi directly.

And just when the three figures were about to disappear at the entrance of the Immortal Fortress, Ram's voice sounded faintly in Evelin's ears.

"Pain, don't try to resist him or you might die a horrible death."

Evelin's advancing body paused slightly, then returned to normal and continued to follow Zuo Chi.

However, her appearance also changed at this time, from the ferocious demon form before, she gradually transformed into a graceful young aristocratic woman with long purple wavy hair and a gentle and alluring temperament.

She came to Zuo Chi and gave Zuo Chi a wink:

"Brother, you can do whatever you want to others~~"

Zuo Chi looked at Evelin and frowned slightly:

"What do you want? You're not going to attack my basket, are you?"

Evelin was a little afraid to look Zuo Chi in the eye, but she also knew that in front of Zuo Chi, she had no need to hide it, because she had no other choice but to beg Zuo Chi.

Thinking of this, Evelin looked at Zuo Chi with charming eyes:

"I want the power in that key."

Zuo Chi raised his eyebrows in surprise. He didn't expect that Evelin's ambition would be so great, and her idea was all about Fiddlesticks' power.

But thinking about it, perhaps no demon can avoid being moved by the original power of fear, especially the demons derived from fear.

"see your performance."

After leaving the last words behind, Zuo Chi did not look back and flew straight out of the city with Ruier.

Evelin stood there, looking at Zuo Chi's quickly retreating figure, and she couldn't help but reveal a successful evil smile on her charming face.

She knew that no man in this world could resist the temptation of beauty.

What's more, she can change. Sister Shaoluo, a young woman, a young woman, or even an eighty-year-old old lady. She can change whatever Zuo Chi likes. She doesn't believe that Zuo Chi can still refuse her!

After making up her mind, Evelin's figure gradually became invisible and completely disappeared between heaven and earth.

After leaving the city, following the coordinates given by Swain, Zuochi gradually approached a rather desolate village settlement.

According to Swain, due to the remote geographical location, a group of bandits suddenly appeared here a few days ago, and all the imperial troops were out, so they ignored it for the time being.

Rui'er from Zuo Chi appeared in a valley not far from the village, and just when Zuo Chi was about to take Rui'er directly to find Vega, his figure suddenly paused, and then he turned around. He looked over his left shoulder.

"Buzz!"

A spatial fluctuation that was quite familiar to Zuo Chi came, and then, in Ruier's suspicious eyes, a figure wearing a frog spirit mask appeared on Zuo Chi's shoulder.

Disappear the frog spirit!

Zuo Chi was a little surprised. Logically speaking, shouldn't the vanished frog spirit be in Shurima guiding the dead on the way to the underworld? Why would it suddenly appear here?

"Human, where are you going? I have something very important to tell you!"

The panicked voice and rapid breathing of the disappearing frog spirit rang in Zuo Chi's ears, and he frowned slightly:

"What happened?"

The Vanishing Frog Spirit stood on Zuo Chi's shoulder, panting heavily as he said, "Something might happen to Qian Jue!"

"Ok?"

This time, Zuo Chi's expression became a little solemn, but at the same time he was a little confused. He looked at the disappearing frog spirit:

"Elaborate."

The disappearing frog spirit sat down on Zuo Chi's shoulder, and then said quickly:

"Do you still remember that I told you that there are many gods of death in this world, and each god of death has a different target group."

Zuo Chi nodded: "Remember."

"But there's one thing I didn't tell you."

The Vanishing Frog Spirit said: "That is, since there are so many gods of death, there will also be many underworlds! These underworlds are large and small, strong and weak, and are generally controlled by the god of death. Generally speaking, the strength of the underworld also represents It depends on the strength of that god of death."

"After the soul enters the underworld, it will gradually dissipate under the power of the underworld, and then enter reincarnation."

Zuo Chi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Something happened to the underworld controlled by Qian Jue?"

The disappearing frog spirit shook his head quickly, and at the same time his tone became a little depressed:

"It should be said that except for the underworld where Qian Jue is located, something happened to the underworld of all the other gods of death!"

"Including you?" Zuo Chi glanced at the disappearing frog spirit.

The Vanishing Frog Spirit choked, and then scratched his head in embarrassment: "I now work for the Sheep Spirit and Wolf Spirit, and I no longer have my own underworld. Although Shurima's sun disk has been restored, the lifespan of the Bakais But it’s very long, and I don’t think he will die in a short time, so naturally there will be no need for me.”

"Tell me the reason." Zuo Chi asked directly.

The Vanishing Frog Spirit nodded, and at the same time he said with a look of indignation:

"Not long ago, a world called "Mitna Rachen" suddenly appeared in the underworld, and its leader was an extremely powerful undead." "What's even more puzzling is that this aspect The souls in the underworld do not enter reincarnation, but remain in this world forever in the form of an army of the undead."

"Since this period of time, the undead has led his army to conquer the underworld where many gods of death are located, and has swallowed up all the territories of the gods of death."

Hearing this, Zuo Chi's heart skipped a beat: "Is that undead Mordekaiser?"

"You know him!?"

The shock on the disappearing frog spirit's face was even more exaggerated than Zuo Chi's.

Zuo Chi nodded slowly: "Not long ago, I entered that underworld and had a conflict with him!"

"Is there such a thing!? You're not dead!?"

The Vanishing Frog Spirit looked Zuo Chi up and down with a look of shock on his face.

Zuo Chi gave him a slap in the face and continued to ask: "You mean, Mordekaiser has set his sights on Kindred now? Are you kidding?"

The disappearing frog spirit covered its head with its hands in pain, and at the same time, it did not forget to say aggrievedly:

"Of course this is true, otherwise why would I come to you."

Zuo Chi looked up at the sky and asked helplessly: "Are you sure Mordekaiser can beat Kindred?"

"Uh~~"

Hearing Zuo Chi's question, the Vanishing Frog Spirit couldn't help scratching his head and said with some embarrassment:

"After all, Qian Jue is our last hope, so it's good for me to be careful. And after all, the undead has devoured so many of the Death God's territories, so the increase in power will definitely be considerable."

"What about Kindred?"

Zuo Chi glanced at the disappearing frog spirit: "How did you describe the sheep spirit and wolf spirit to me back then?"

"Bug!" the vanishing frog spirit replied quickly.

When he talked about this, Vanishing Frog Spirit became excited. After all, he had to talk about Qian Jue's origin eight hundred times a day.

He continued: "To say that the only gods of death in this world who are not afraid of exorcising evil spirits are probably the sheep spirit and the wolf spirit. After all, they are twins and will never forget each other, and they will never forget each other. Will die. And the area of ​​the underworld they control accounts for almost 70% of all the underworld areas!"

"What's more, these two guys have much more believers than all the other Death God believers combined. Much more! Although you don't believe in God, I believe you also know what this means."

The envy in the disappearing frog spirit's eyes almost overflowed: "Some compatriots have even said that the power of the sheep spirit and wolf spirit is the closest to our mother among us."

"That's it."

Zuo Chi picked his nose and flicked at the disappearing frog spirit: "Since you know, you are nothing to worry about."

"Aren't I worried about you?"

The disappearing frog spirit dodged the non-existent nose and looked at Zuo Chi with a worried look:

"Qian Jue is the last line of defense in the underworld. If the sheep spirit and wolf spirit also lose, the entire underworld will be completely unified by him, so prepare to reopen."

Zuo Chi tilted his head: "Where is the Masked Spirit Mother? Doesn't she care?"

"Um"

The disappearing frog spirit scratched his frog spirit mask sadly: "My mother has not appeared for many years, and no one knows where she is. If she were still there, she would probably crush the undead spirit to death with one hand. "

Hearing this, Zuo Chi nodded slightly.

"I understand."

The Vanishing Frog Spirit added: "No matter what, you have to prepare for the worst."

"If the undead had not come to the material realm, then everything would be easy to say. He would have been eaten up by the wolf spirit 100%. But if he had come to the material realm, it would be dangerous, because he There is a high probability that he has won! After swallowing Kindred's underworld, his power will undergo earth-shaking changes."

Zuo Chi nodded: "I understand."

"Okay, that's all, I'm leaving."

The Vanishing Frog Spirit waved his hand towards Zuo Chi: "You have to remember that if the undead comes to the material realm one day, you should quickly run away with your family. It is best to take refuge in the spiritual realm."

"Alright, alright, let's go."

Zuo Chi tapped the disappearing frog spirit's forehead, and then stuffed him into the spiritual realm.

After the disappearing frog spirit left, only Zuo Chi and Ruier were left in the valley.

Ruier looked at Zuo Chi blankly: "Zuo Chi, what should we do next?"

Zuo Chi waved his hand gently: "Let's continue looking for that Yodel mage."
-

At this time, it was already dark, and Swain had already settled Belea and Annie.

Standing alone at the top of the Immortal Fortress, Swain overlooked the entire Noxian Imperial Capital.

Now, Noxus and Demacia have started a war. Although he has not gone to the front line, he has to coordinate everything from the rear and issue the most perfect instructions in a timely manner based on the battle reports from the front line.

At this moment, a swift sound of breaking wind came from behind Swain, and a figure shrouded in black robes appeared behind him.

Swain did not look back, but asked softly: "General Du Couture, is there any news from the front line again? How is the battle situation at the Gate of Sorrow?"

However, Swain did not get an answer to his question. Instead, he heard a piece of news that made him frown.

"The Shurima Empire sent a large army to the north of the Shurima continent to regain lost territory. Several large trading cities we occupied there were captured one after another!"

The top of the Immortal Fortress fell into deathly silence.

The figure in black asked again: "Commander, do we want to send troops to intercept the Shurima Empire's army?"

As soon as the words fell, the pupils of the figure in black shrouded in black robes shrank instantly.

In front of him, Swain's demonic hand once again lit up with a strange red light.

Swain stared at his left arm and said slowly: "We have already suffered the pain of fighting on multiple fronts. Now is not the time to fight the Shurima Empire."

The black-robed figure asked again: "The Shurima Empire has been on the rise in a very short period of time. Do we want to send troops to suppress it before its wings are full?"

After the words fell, Swain's tone suddenly became serious: "Don't bring up this topic again, let alone Noxus and Shurima!"

"Leave first and leave me alone."

"Yes!"

The black-clothed figure turned into an afterimage and disappeared. Swain whispered softly: "Why is it at this time?"

Turning his head and looking at the Immortal Fortress behind him, Swain suddenly opened a pair of huge demon wings behind him, and then he turned into a bloody stream of light and rushed towards the palace of Noxus.

"LeBlanc, come to the palace!"
-

Just when the whole of Noxus was in chaos, a dark green teleportation portal slowly emerged on the eastern coast of Noxus.

"Wow~!"

The sound of chains rubbing against each other was heard, and then a figure slowly walked out of the teleportation portal.

This figure holds a soul lamp in his left hand and a hook sickle in his right hand.

It was Thresh, the soul-locked warden who took the opportunity to escape when the Shadow Island was wiped out!

However, Thresh's appearance has undergone earth-shaking changes now.

He no longer looked like a ghost before, he actually had a complete physical body!

And this is exactly the result of his relying on Foyego to capture countless souls in Runeterra.

Not only has his strength been greatly enhanced, but he also has a perfect physical body.

Standing on the coast, Thresh swung the hook and sickle in his hand, his face full of wanton laughter.

He raised the soul lamp in his hand, and in the cyan light, a huge black and cyan metal skull appeared in Thresh's hand.

It was the only thing he took with him when he was purified on the Shadow Isles.

Thousands of years ago, when Blessed Light Island was still there, in order to prevent Mordekaiser's body and skull from coming together again, the skull was sent to Blessed Light Island by Black Rose and sealed in the underground treasure house of Blessed Light Island.

Perhaps Black Rose would never have thought that a holy place like Fuguang Island would be infected by black mist and become a forbidden land for the living!

Later, Black Rose tried to retrieve the skull more than once, but no matter what, Fuguang Island had been turned into Shadow Island.

Even Elise was bitten by the Maw of Despicableness when she entered the Shadow Island, turning into a half-human, half-spider monster.

It was when the skull was sealed in the underground treasure house of Blessed Light Island that Thresh, who was Thresh's guardian, discovered this skull that exuded strange power.

Through this skull, he got in touch with the undead monarch in the underworld. The undead monarch gave him the ability to absorb souls to enhance his strength, and he became a loyal believer of the undead monarch.

Everything after that, including the black mist that swept across the entire Blessed Light Island during the Ruined Curse, was all the work of the underworld!

Now, thousands of years have passed, Thresh still needs to do one last thing for his master. After it is completed, he will gain the supreme status.

It's time to take the skull and reunite it with its body!

The metal skull was suspended in the air in front of him, and Thresh knelt down devoutly:

"My master, we are only one step away from your arrival."

The metal skull rotated, and a strange blue flame suddenly ignited in a pair of empty eyes. At the same time, a high-pitched voice sounded:

"Go to the Immortal Fortress and find my body!"

"Yes, my master!"

Thresh and the skull disappeared on the coast of Noxus, and a strangely dressed figure appeared in the imperial capital of Noxus.

Underworld - Mitna Rachen.

Mordekaiser, who had always been sitting on the throne, slowly stood up at this time.

Raising his hand to hold Ye Yun beside him, Mordekaiser's voice rang out between heaven and earth.

"My children, it is time."

"We still have one last enemy. After this battle, we will dominate the material realm with an absolutely crushing attitude!"

The light of the nightfall illuminated the entire underworld, and the undead army that always stood on the wasteland marched towards the space crack in the horizon.

When all the armies in the wasteland left the underworld, the only thing left between heaven and earth was the soft whisper of Mordekaiser.

The living are sad!

Take off your flesh and blood!

It's all mine!

(BaZhao may have set Tetsuo’s position too high before, actually thinking he could beat Qian Jue. After reading everyone’s messages in the past few days, he made some changes. This is also the reason for taking a leave of absence. It’s really unacceptable. Sorry.)
