Chapter 1446: Lamps and Torches
Twilight Titan is completely unaware that Jax is not a Void Believer, let alone a fanatic lurking in the deepest depths - Mr. Jax, formerly known as Ajax, is just a poor survivor, an Avenger with secrets looking for every possible opportunity, a lone wanderer with a different mission, a watcher with the last glimmer of light for the guardian Acacia.
And not some traitor.
Titans are powerful, they are born good.
But the high giant god has never been able to understand what mortals can do for their own beliefs......
A veteran who survived alone, a warrior who experienced the devastation of the Void Erosion, Jax let go of the containment of the Void Erosion in order to confuse the Gaze Giant, and finally created the illusion of "I am undercover".
This illusion successfully deceived Twilight Titan, but ...... It also means that Jax's life has begun the final countdown.
Jax's containment of the Void Erosion had become untenable hundreds of years ago, so he quickened his pace and tried to find truly powerful warriors who could fight alongside him.
Because of the sorcerer, Jax has always had an inexplicable distrust of the spellcaster, even if he once passed by Ruiz, he subconsciously thought that the other party was not trustworthy, and this situation did not even change until Rod appeared.
After Rhodes and Gavin IV reached a secret agreement, Jax focused on training - he was a centurion and knew how important good training was when facing a truly powerful enemy, so after that, he stayed in Demacia Xiongdu and participated in Demacia's martial arts training.
The reason for staying in Antahir this time is because Jax has to finish the last batch of apprentices - although the stinky boys have some food, there is always room for improvement.
Theoretically, when the last batch of students finished their courses, Jax would also join the Hell Commando, return to his hometown, return to Acacia, and take the final revenge on the original destroyer, but fate is so wrong, Jax, who was stranded because of the last training, faced the void one step ahead, and in a desperate situation, was forced to untie his own prison to curb the erosion of the void.
Feeling the changes in his body, Jax had no joy or sorrow.
Or rather...... Joy and sorrow.
In any case, this time I have finally completed my mission - unlike the last time, the civilization of Acacia has not been annihilated, the land will be rich again after the war, and the civilization of Acacia will always reappear and regain its own glory.
Coughing lightly, Jax clenched the Rig Lamp in his hand.
It's a pity that although it is not a pity for me to die, a few children who went underground with me ...... It shouldn't be!
"This is our last hour." After hesitating for a moment, Jax still chose to speak, "We have been bound to the heart of the void, and once that heart is broken, we will also sleep here for a long time - so, cherish this last period of time, if you have anything to say, you can leave a suicide note and a sufficiently obvious marker, maybe the later ones will find out, remember, and sing our story." ”
The rest of the people were silent.
Jax's words were so heavy, so heavy that everyone was speechless, even though everyone was ready.
Seeing that several of his teammates stopped talking, Jax finally shook his head silently, and then stood up to Rig's lamp beside him.
Reciting a mantra in a low voice, Jax gently opened the lampshade of Rig's lamp with only three fingers left, breaking free of the lampshade's confinement, and the flame of Rig's lamp flickered high.
Jax's eyes narrowed slightly under his mask, and he silently stared at the dancing firelight, feeling the blazing energy in the flames—Regg's lamp was Acacia's last light, the last hope, and a countermeasure prepared by the worried mage.
Not all astromagicians have fallen into madness because of the Void, and some people have preserved their sanity and just hope to use the power of the Void to fight the invaders, but unfortunately their plan is to seek the skin of the tiger after all, and eventually be devoured by the tiger.
And this sword was originally a weapon used to fight against the Void, and before it even had time to be unsheathed, it directly became the last memorial of the old country.
Right now...... It's time to actually use it.
Kai'Sa and the others watched in amazement as the flames on the Rig's lamp rose higher and higher, turning from orange to incandescent, and even flowed down as if it were substance—and as the flames flowed, the shape of the entire Rig's lamp also changed dramatically.
The old-fashioned copper handle turned into a bronze grip engraved with the runes of ancient Acacia, and the incandescent flame honestly returned to the original position of the lamp head after completing its mission, and under Jax's control, the real artifact was finally completely unsealed.
"What is it?" Kai'Sa couldn't hide the surprise in her tone - anyone who found a street lamp turned into a powerful artifact couldn't be calm, "It looks...... Very strong. ”
"It used to be Rig's Lamp." Jax's tone was low, "Some of my old friends have designed a lot of names for it, but now ...... It's nothing more than a torch of flame. ”
Then, without waiting for Kai'Sa to ask more, Jax held the Torch high and began to head deeper underground.
This time, although there were still tentacles making trouble, under the incandescent flames, the speed of Jax and his party did not even decrease in the slightest.
