Chapter 32: Varus's Memory
It was late at night, and Ye Feng arrived early, but Wuxin led him to a forest with a group of dead trees, and not far from the forest there was a house with walls covered with dead vines.
Squeak!
The door opened, and because it was too dilapidated, there was a screeching sound between the door and the floor, which was irritating and uncomfortable.
Inside the house, it was pitch black, like a black hole, and it was terrifying. Two faint green rays of light shot out of the darkness, and a scrawny man gradually stepped out of the room.
It's not so much a man as a scarecrow. His torso was yellow and rotten, as if it were made of dead wood and weeds. His head was oily green, his mouth was cracked as if he had stitches up, and his hollow eyes were dancing with a faint green flame, like a hell fire, cold and terrifying.
A breeze blew, and a figure appeared in front of the scarecrow, it was Varus, who had been carried by Irelia during the day. Varus looked at the scarecrow suspiciously, and said, "You are Federtic?" What's the matter with me? ”
The scarecrow laughed, and the laughter was sharp and harsh, tickling the eardrums. After a while, he opened his big mouth that seemed to have stitches and stitches and said, "Someone in Noxus said that there was a person with a demonic aura in the academy, and sure enough, it was not wrong, I came to you to suck you dry!" The scarecrow's voice was like a terrible ghost in hell, disgusting and terrifying.
The bow and arrow in Varus's hand couldn't help but clench at this time, ready to strike at any time.
In the forest, Ye Feng asked, "Don't you want to help him?" ”
Wuxin shook his head and smiled: "Let's take a look first, I'm afraid the people in the grass over there are ready to rescue at any time at this time." ”
The wind gently blew the dead leaves on the ground, and a few leaves rose with the wind, sweeping past Varus and the scarecrow in the confrontation, as if to announce that the battle was about to break out!
Varus had seen that he had no chance of winning without using the evil power he had gained from the abyss of corruption.
Quickly distanced himself from the scarecrow, and in the distance, the bow and crossbow in his hand were opened, in the shape of a full moon, emitting a blood-red light, piercing the eyeballs.
A crimson arrow was fired, followed by a second, a third...... The sky was as if someone had been blinded in the eye, and it was bleeding from tears.
The scarecrow stood silently in place, letting the arrows that turned into a rain of blood hit him, the green flames in his eyes suddenly beating more vigorously, and at the same time, his withered right hand shot a black magic bullet, flying towards Varus not far away.
For some reason, since the dark green flame in the scarecrow's eyes was stronger than before, Varus suddenly stood still, his gaze slightly glazed. The black magic bullet knocked Varus coughing up blood, but he still didn't fight back.
In the forest, Wuxin's face was extremely solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "That kid who plays with the bow is estimated to have fallen into endless illusions, and he can't notice what is happening outside, unless he can get out of it." ”
At the same time as he was talking, the scarecrow had already come to Varus's side. The scarecrow flipped his right hand, and a dark green flame that was the same as his eye appeared in his hand, only several times larger than his eye.
The scarecrow's hand slowly moved to the top of Varus's head, and just as the flame was about to enter Varus's head, a silver sword with a circular pattern on the hilt and a red mysterious orb inlaid with it stabbed straight at him at a speed countless times faster than the scarecrow.
If he insists on killing Varus who has fallen into the illusion first, he will also be pierced by this sword! The scarecrow leaped backwards and dodged the blow.
He angrily shouted in the direction where the sword was flying, "Who is it! ”
In the bushes not far away, there was a commotion, and a slender jade hand pushed away the bushes, and a tall red figure walked out of it. Because of the darkness of the night, it is impossible to see the face of this figure. A sonorous, yet crisp and melodious female voice came out of her mouth: "My name is Irelia! ”
Irelia's voice was melodious and crisp, but it was also imposing. She stretched out her right hand forward, and the heirloom sword flew back into her hand in an instant.
Irelia looked at the scarecrow coldly, and said without a trace of emotion: "I don't care who you are, as long as you dare to bully the Ionians, I will not show mercy!" ”
The scarecrow laughed, and his laughter was shrill and piercing, and he said, "Then let's see if you have that ability!" ”
……
In the crimson space, Varus slowly rose from the ground, and he looked around, there was no living thing here but him.
Varus muttered to himself, "I remember fighting the scarecrow just now, why did you end up here?" ”
At that moment, Varus's feet turned into a cliff, and when he looked down the cliff, a small village came to his eyes, and from time to time smoke rose from the chimney of the cottage.
Varus sniffed subconsciously, it was the smell of food.
As if he suddenly remembered something, Varus took a few steps back in disbelief and muttered, "This is the village under the temple?" ”
Varus hesitated, but looked back at it, and a temple that he couldn't be more familiar with appeared in front of him, the temple he had been guarding before!
Every morning, Varus would come to the cliff and look out at the village. Varus couldn't help but wonder: Was everything before just a dream? Am I the real one now?
To confirm his suspicions, Varus decided to go down the mountain to the village.
It didn't take long for Varus to arrive in the village. An uncle wearing a white cloth scarf stood in front of his meat bun shop and shouted for it. When the uncle saw Varus, he shouted loudly: "Varus, it's so early today, come, it's quite tiring to guard the temple alone, uncle invites you to eat steamed buns!" ”
Varus walked to the bun shop, said hello to his uncle, and was stuffed with several hot buns wrapped in oiled paper. Varus thanked him shyly and continued his journey through the village.
Regardless of men, women, and children in the village, when they saw Varus, they would greet him cordially, which made Varus's heart warm. Varus muttered, "It looks like those things were just nightmares. ”
"Big brother...... Big brother, you promised to tell us yesterday how you became the guardian of the temple! A little girl in a blue linen dress pulled Varus by the leg of his trousers and said, her voice crisp and cute.
Varus bent down and smiled gently, "Okay, I'm ......"
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves in the distance interrupted Varus's words, and soldiers wearing Noxian military uniforms appeared at the entrance of the village.
Varus felt a chill in his heart, wasn't everything before a dream?
A bow and arrow were fired at the little girl next to Varus, who grabbed it with his right hand. When he clenched it, he found that the arrow had passed through his hand, directly through the left chest of the little girl.
How so? Varus shouted inwardly. The little girl next to her was hit by an arrow in the heart, and she slowly collapsed. Varus tried to pick up the girl and take her to the village doctor for treatment. But no matter how much Varus tried to grasp it, his hand always passed through the little girl's body, unable to grasp it, as if he did not belong to this world.
Varus watched the little girl fall to the ground, his eyes moistened with sadness.
Varus looked angrily at the Noxian soldiers who stepped into the village. He picked up the bow and arrows in his hand and shot frantically at the raging enemies, but no matter how many arrows he shot, he could not do any damage.
Varus raised his head to the sky and shouted, "Ah! Why is that? He ran madly out of the village and up the hill and saw a man standing at the mouth of the temple.
Varus was stunned for a while, and then realized that he was just a bystander, and this Varus standing at the mouth of the temple was in this world.
Varus at the entrance of the temple was dressed in a white silk robe, holding a golden bow and crossbow, and his black hair was slightly brown in the sunlight. This Varus is like a divine guardian, majestic and inviolable, like a true messenger of God. At this time, he was frowning and said worriedly, "The army of Noxus has invaded here, should I go down to save the villagers?" But what if someone from Noxus takes advantage of this to enter the temple and lure out demons? ”
Varus, who was on the sidelines, stood in front of this divine Varus and shouted frantically, "You idiot! Go and save the villagers! You grew up in the village, what a broken temple, what do you care about it! ”
But no matter how Varus roared, the divine Varus could not hear anything.
Varus, who was watching, couldn't stand it anymore and rushed down the cliff again to the village. At this time, the village was in shambles, and the village, which should have been full of popularity, was now as silent as death, and the corpses of three and three fell to the ground, and blood stained everything red.
Varus fell to his knees in despair, a thick mist of blood began to fill around him.
Varus's clear eyes began to cloude until they were white, and purple lines of blood began to appear around his eyes. Varus's breathing began to rage, and his heart began to be slowly corrupted by demons because of hatred.
His black hair turned gray in an instant, and the white clothes on his body seemed to be burned, burning at a visible speed, except for the white clothes on the neckline, which were not burned, dyed blood, revealing his sturdy upper body. Hideous demonic patterns gradually appeared on his arms, and the golden bow and crossbow turned blood-red. His lower body began to be wrapped in purple vines, which made people shudder.
Varus roared into the sky, and several blood rays surrounded him, shooting straight into the sky. The earth began to tremble, and the sky was stained bloody.
In a few moments, everything around Varus collapsed, and he fell into the endless abyss.
