Golden Shovel Survival: One Lucky Star and One Colorful Hex

Chapter 187 Another Demigod Added!
"Master, I do!"

After listening to Mo Lang's explanation of the pros and cons, Azir's eyes revealed a determined look: "Back then, because I trusted the wrong person, the Shurima Empire fell apart. Now, the people of Shurima need me, and I must stand up!"

"Since you've made up your mind, I won't try to persuade you any further."

Mo Lang nodded upon hearing this, and then immediately clicked "Yes"!
In an instant, a dazzling golden and black light burst forth from Azir's body, and the two lights intertwined, quickly enveloping Azir.

Just when Mo Lang thought that Azir would have to wait several days to absorb the energy of the divine crystal, a system notification suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Ding! Congratulations! Your chess piece Azir has successfully absorbed the Divine Crystal and become a four-star, five-cost unit. You will no longer be able to summon Azir!"

"So fast?"

Mo Lang was somewhat surprised.

The next second, the light emanating from the Tsar dissipated, and a powerful aura suddenly spread out. The Tsar's eyes became sharper, but he quickly withdrew this aura, his gaze softening considerably as he looked gratefully at Mo Lang: "Thank you, Boss!"

"This is what I should do."

Mo Lang's eyes also revealed joy, now he had two four-star five-cost units!

Crossing the Shurima desert shouldn't be a problem.

"Damn it, seeing Azir become a demigod is really painful for me!" The Blind Monk looked distressed, wishing he could just take his place.

"I have only heartfelt blessings! Congratulations to my brother on becoming a four-star, five-cost unit!" Draven said with a beaming smile.

"No matter who becomes a four-star five-cost unit, as long as they can help the boss, I, Ornn, can only admire them!" Ornn added.

"We feel the same way."

Other Samsung five-cost units echoed this sentiment.

"no……"

The blind monk immediately panicked.

You fucking think I'm Japanese and you're going to treat me like this?

"Alright, stop arguing. Let's go to the Tower of Trials first, and then we'll go find Aatrox to get revenge!" Mo Lang interrupted the conversation of his few lively chess pieces with a smile on his lips.

After all, the attribute bonuses from the Tower of Trials are quite overpowered, especially when you have the same demigod. If you have all the synergy attribute bonuses, your chances of winning will definitely increase significantly.

"Listen to the boss!"

Upon hearing this, the blind monk immediately changed the subject, rubbing his hands together and saying, "We were the ones who got wrecked before, now it's finally our turn to wreck them!"

……

……

"Ding! Congratulations on successfully completing the SSS-rank Arbiter difficulty challenge. Reward: Execute enemies with less than 10% HP!"

Hearing the system notification in his ear, Mo Lang revealed a satisfied expression.

As the monsters encountered gain more and more health, Mo Lang naturally prioritizes using the Judgment skill, which can eliminate a certain amount of health, thus significantly increasing the speed at which his pieces kill monsters.

Moreover, in a battle between demigods, one's own pieces naturally have an advantage!
Especially when everyone is down to their last bit of health, your side can desperately whittle down the opponent's health and then finish them off!
Of course, the bonus from the Judgment is not cumulative; the execution threshold is 10% after challenging an SSS-rank opponent.

"Effortlessly controlled!"

The blind monk looked smug.

"What's it to you? It's all thanks to our Azir for clearing the screen with one ultimate!" Draven said, glancing sideways at Lee Sin.

"I'm saying our Azir can't be easily dealt with, can he?" the Blind Monk retorted, glancing at the Tsar's expression, which immediately startled him.

Because the Tsar's face suddenly turned terribly grim, just as he was about to explain, the Tsar looked at Mo Lang with a serious expression and said:
"Boss, Nasus is under siege! We need to get there right now!"

……

……

Shurima Desert. "Aatrox, are you sure you don't want to join forces with us?"

Xerath glanced at the Sword Demon, who was recuperating in some battlefield ruins, his eyes narrowing slightly, his tone seemingly carrying a hint of threat.

“Xerath, if you want to fight, then fight. Stop wasting time talking. I, Aatrox, may want to destroy this world, but I will not join forces with traitors.”

At this point, Aatrox looked at Renekton, his eyes filled with disdain: "I never thought that the once glorious, god of death Renekton, known as one of the Twin Stars, would join forces with a traitor. I feel ashamed just thinking about how you and I once fought for the Shurima Empire!"

"Aatrox, you're a piece of trash who's fallen into the Darkin race, what right do you have to talk to me like that?"

Renekton's large, fang-filled mouth grinned, a cold smile appearing at the corner of his lips, his narrow, vertical pupils flashing with a bloodthirsty light: "Xerath, since the other party is ungrateful and can't see reality, then just kill him. One more or one less won't make a difference."

"Kill me? With just two pieces of trash like you?"

The deep, majestic voice of the Sword Demon Aatrox rang out, his eyes instantly becoming incredibly sharp. Dark purple demonic flames slowly rose from his body, like burning nightmares, distorting the surrounding air and emitting a hissing sound.

The black greatsword in his hand, exuding an evil aura, trembled slightly, as if yearning for the nourishment of blood, and emitted an excited sword cry.

“Rekton, you wretch blinded by rage, to associate with this despicable fellow.”

Aatrox's voice was filled with disdain, "And you, Xerath, a false god who tries to steal power, dare to be so insolent before me?"

"Aatrox, do you still think you're the high and mighty Celestial Warrior you once were? Now you're nothing but a soul sealed within a sword."

Xerath's illusory figure swayed slightly, the arcane energy surging within him emitting a blinding light, and a ferocious smile appeared on his face.

"Enough with the nonsense, today is your death day!"

Renekton let out a roar as loud as thunder, his limbs tensed, and his tail whipped up a cloud of dust.

With that, he charged toward Aatrox like a black lightning bolt, his massive jaws snapping open to reveal sharp teeth, as if he wanted to crush the enemy before him in one bite.

"Heh, so what if you join forces!"

Aatrox snorted coldly, fearless, and swung his greatsword to meet Renekton's attack.

boom!
The greatsword collided with Renekton's massive jaws, producing a deafening roar. The powerful impact caused the surrounding ground to tremble, and cracks spread out like a spider web.

Seeing this, Xerath also launched an attack on Aatrox. His body was surging with intense arcane energy, and with a sudden wave of his hands, several energy rays shining with blue-purple light shot towards Aatrox like arrows.

The ray traveled at extremely high speed, making a sharp whistling sound as it cut through the air, and the air was filled with a burnt smell.

Aatrox's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly spun his greatsword, the black runes on the blade shining brightly. He held the greatsword horizontally in front of him, attempting to block Xerath's attack.

boom!
The moment the energy ray struck the greatsword, it burst forth with dazzling light. The intense energy impact caused Aatrox's body to tremble slightly, and his feet slid a hard trail across the ground.

Meanwhile, Renekton launched another attack while Aatrox was distracted defending against Xerath's attack.

With a powerful push from his hind legs, his massive body shot towards Aatrox like a black cannonball, his claws gleaming coldly as he clawed at Aatrox's chest.

Aatrox reacted quickly, dodging to the side. Renekton's claws grazed his body, leaving several deep claw marks on his armor, sparks flying.

Aatrox roared and swung his greatsword at Renekton.

Renekton hurriedly raised his massive jaws to defend himself. The greatsword struck the jaws, sending sparks flying. Aatrox's strength was immense, and this blow caused Renekton to involuntarily take a few steps back.

Xerath floated in the air, his hands constantly forming hand seals, and the arcane energy around him rapidly condensed into a huge energy ball.

"go to hell!"

He shouted and hurled the energy ball at Aatrox.

Aatrox felt a great threat. He couldn't care less about attacking Renekton and hurriedly swung his greatsword, trying to cleave the energy ball in two.

However, the energy ball exploded the moment it touched the greatsword, and the powerful energy shockwave sent Aatrox flying. He crashed heavily to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Renekton and Xerath exchanged a glance and charged at Aatrox again, ready to deliver the fatal blow!
"stop!"

Just then, a figure burst through the air and stood directly between the three. The powerful aura of a demigod caused Xerath and Renekton, who wanted to press their advantage, to immediately stop.

Because the person who came was none other than Nasus the Dog!
