Chapter 139: Waiting for Annihilation
Valoran is a magical planet.
In Valoran, magic is also known as rune magic - not that you need to draw runes when casting spells, but that rune magic means that the rules of magic in this world are embodied in runes.
For example, the legend has it that there was no flame in Valoran's ancient times, and it wasn't until Orn kept hitting the earth with his hammer that the geothermal fire appeared, and the fire runes were always cold to Freljord.
Every time Valoran appears a power, it will produce a corresponding rune, and this rune is called the world rune.
In other words, any World Rune represents a kind of Valoran World Rule, and as long as you master the corresponding Rune, you can completely mobilize this rule of Valoran.
This kind of power is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people - such as Orn who holds the fire rune, Volibel who holds the thunder rune, and Avinia who holds the frost rune, if a mortal chooses to use the corresponding damage method when facing them, the damage caused can only be zero.
In layman's terms, as long as you master the corresponding world rune, you are immune to this kind of damage in Valoran, and the damage you use this power is infinite.
A large number of world runes were in the hands of the Titans and Freljord gods, the world runes representing the end were in the hands of the Twilight Titan, the runes representing the power of the sun appeared in the hands of the Sun Cult after the fall of Shurima, and the runes representing war were passed down from generation to generation in the hands of the incarnation of the war titans......
In a sense, the World Rune is Valoran's divinity.
As in the world of DND, the World Rune also has the effect of "immortality", which can greatly extend the life of the holder.
As soon as this kind of thing appears, there will be countless people vying for it.
In Eltistan, for example, mortals fight over the runes of time - and then the whole rune of time is broken into many pieces, and Ertistan is reduced to ashes in the flames of war.
So now Valoran, the transcendents are doing their best to find and protect the world runes, and if possible, they don't let the world runes fall into the hands of mortals.
The oracles of the Titans are doing this, and so are the guardians of the mortals.
And the mysterious person who came to Zu'an this time is the divine envoy of the Sun Sect - Leona is now the spokesperson of the sun before he has grown up.
The giants have been looking at the world with their own eyes and protecting the world in their own ways.
Due to some of the things that happened before, it is now in the eyes of the Titan Gods that the World Runes should not be something that mortals should grasp - and it is for this reason that the people of the Titan Peak and Ruiz have always looked at each other unpleasantly.
While Ruiz kept up with his teacher's last wish and kept searching for the world runes, the giants had to send their own oracles to protect the newly born world runes from falling into the hands of mortals if necessary.
Unlike the way Ruiz sealed the world rune body, the Titans are more advanced in their sealing techniques - they will find the source of the birth of the world rune, and then "degree" the master of the rune, seal the power of the rune into his body, and then help him ascend to the stars and become a god.
In this way, it not only ensures the safety of the world runes, but also asks the giant god to add a new clan.
Since the Giant God Peak is the leyline node of Valoran, many world runes will appear on the Giant God Peak when they are born, so all kinds of legends about the "top of the Giant God Peak on the disk" have been circulated for a long time.
This time, the Sun Divine Envoy's purpose was a newly born world rune he sensed, the Annihilation Rune.
This is not a world rune in the conventional sense.
Unlike the "Will Rune" of the Guardian Rune, the Annihilation Rune is more like a Flame Rune, representing a new energy situation, and the Giant God Peak has occasionally sensed it before, but it has never really detected the rune fluctuations.
Until a few days ago, in Piltover and Zuan, the extraordinary rune fluctuations representing the will of the world broke through the sky, and the Sun Divine Envoy on the Giant God Peak left the Sun Sect for the first time.
This is the power of annihilation.
And the power of annihilation usually represents the disappearance of matter, the emergence of energy - in the usual sense, the source of annihilation is the void creature.
In this case, the giant god had to hurry.
However, the fluctuations of the annihilation energy disappeared in a flash, and the Sun Envoy wandered around Zaun and Piltover for a long time, unable to find where the world runes were......
The giant god does not take the initiative to interfere in the lives of mortals, and even if Zuan and Piltover have had some unpleasantness recently, the Sun Divine Envoy has not intervened, but just waited and watched.
Look and see, and get nothing.
In the ancient knowledge bestowed by the scorching sun, the information related to annihilation ...... It's pitiful.
The Sun Envoy didn't realize that the source of the Annihilation Rune's fluctuations was actually the Hex's Annihilation Weapon - due to the failure of the Annihilation Bomb to fire, the word Annihilation had become a taboo for Piltover, and everyone even used "that weapon" when they talked about it, and the word weapon was completely misleading for the Sun Oracle.
As a result, the Annihilation Rune began to condense in the ruins of the Annihilation Weapon, but it escaped the detection of the Sun Divine Envoy.
In desperation, during the Snow Festival, the Sun Divine Envoy could only wander the streets of Zu'an, and then met Jinx.
When Jinx mentions Cana, it is clear that the Sun Messenger has found a new breakthrough.
The Sun had news of Cana in her memories - an old god, a god who had not mastered the power of the full runes, that Jana and Naga Capolos shared the runes of the Storm World, and the Guardian runes with Tariq, and because of her own weakness, what she had was rune fragments.
In the eyes of the Sun Divine Envoy, the only one in the entire Piltover and Zuan who may have the Annihilation Rune may be Cana.
If Rhodes was a proud person who disdained to be in a calculating relationship with ordinary people, then the Sun Divine Envoy was a proud person who regarded mortals as nothing—unlike Rhodes, he sometimes disrespected objective laws.
In other words, the first instinct of a mage like Rhodes when confronted with something new is to study it - but the Sun Oracle, who has inherited the knowledge of the Titans, will only judge based on the knowledge base and then "act on experience".
Poor Sun Divine Envoy, he never realized that the Annihilation Rune was not condensed by any strong person, it was a real mortal creature!
————————
The background of the Vengeful Flame Soul has been updated (in the test suit), and he is a guy who covets the power of the fire runes - and then becomes the Burning Man.
The power of runes is interesting, and the gods of Freljord are more "generous" and share their runic power selflessly, so anyone who can sense the power of rune magic can more or less use fire and ice to fight - and you can also use the power of thunder if you are willing to sacrifice for Volibel.
But in comparison, the giant god is a lot more "stingy", and if you want to get the power of the runes in the hands of the giant god, you need to undergo many tests, and if you are not careful, you will be finished.
Finally, "waiting for annihilation" is a line from the Void Prophet Marzahar - is anyone speculating in this regard?
