Chapter 716: Explorer's Diary (2)

It's been a long time since Ike has seen him. After Raven's death, Ike never appeared in front of us again. Actually, he didn't understand, and we never blamed him. It's just that he can't get over the hurdle in his heart. He always blames himself for Raven's death.

At the same time, he was fatally injured at the same time as Raven. Instinctively, he used time reversal to save himself. After that, he missed the opportunity to save Raven. At that time, he was not strong enough. Only a very short period of time can be rewinded. An indisputable choice in a moment, which he considers to be extremely selfish. Because unconsciously, several of us are already the most important people to each other.

After that fight, Ike felt guilty. Never to be in front of us again. But I know that he followed Yasuo quietly. Yasuo and Raven never really confessed to each other. But we all tacitly agreed that they were a couple. Ike transferred his guilt to Yasuo. secretly protected him for many years.

I almost forgot that there was an even more peculiar being among us. Zach, you can't believe what Zach looks like now. You know, when we first saw it, it was still a soft, Q-bomb gelatin. The biggest effect is to be thrown into the pot by us to cook the soup.

However, during the long battles that followed, it grew rapidly, eventually evolving into a special higher life.

Relying on its own unique body structure, it can imitate any living being, in the true sense of the word, from the inside out. Including the abilities of the other party's body, they can be imitated exactly. As far as I know, as long as it doesn't actively leak flaws, there is no way to tell the truth from the fake that it simulates. But I don't know where this guy has been going lately. I was so worried that it would turn into a beautiful woman or something, so I went to a nightclub......

I almost forgot about the brute, Tedamir. Until now, I can't understand that in the end Ash actually married him...... However, his performance in the later war is worthy of a hero. It's just, this guy ...... It's ugly.

As Mr. said, Tedamir tamed the magic sword Aatrox. That made him a warrior as powerful as a demon god. In fact, in addition to the shortcomings of alcoholism, swearing, vulgarity, small belly, chicken intestines, etc., he is actually not untouchable. It's just that the wine is too bad, and if you drink too much, you will smash things. It is said that when I first owned Aatrox, the desire for destruction was not vented (laughs)......

Well, that's all. Actually, what I really want to write about is a battle in Tedamir. It was one of the many battles I've fought alongside him. But there has never been a war that I remember so deeply.

The Battle of Gushuangkou, it was a retreat operation. Takes place in the ninth year of the Void Invasion. Because of successive defeats, we covered the ranks of hundreds of tribes and retreated to Lakstark. It was the sanctuary of Freljord. At that time, there was a Void Air Regiment of four Void Watchers eyeing us.

At that time, many people in the coalition believed that the best choice was to give up the old and weak and keep the young and strong soldiers.

Actually, I understand that mentality. Or even to some extent any. But I also understand that the meaning of a warrior's existence is not only to kill, but more importantly to protect those who need to be protected. Those children are the future of this world. So we finally decided to start a blockade at the mouth of the ancient frost.

You can never imagine what Tydamir did in that battle. He was alone, sticking to a line of defense. The entire body was torn apart hundreds of times by countless Void Worms. With the furious blood in his body, and Aatrox's abilities, he stood up again and again.

With his own eyes, he was swallowed by a giant void beast, which then tore through the other's body and crawled out. He was polluted by the void to a greater extent than the fallen. But he never gave up his will to be human for a second.

Well, I admit that I was jealous of him in that moment. Because I can't do it myself.

Later reinforcements arrived. You won't believe who is coming. The yodelers are not the minority of Picheng or Zaun. Rather, it was a massive, formed yodeler legion.

They drive a variety of super alchemy gear. Armed airships, high-speed cruising fighters, individual mechs. The short, rabbit-like yodelers show us what true alchemy is. It is said that the Alchemy Research Institute of Noxus, after seeing the alchemy equipment of the yodelers, almost committed suicide en masse in shame.

The addition of yodelers seems to be a signal. They are truly a hidden race (Bandel City has been reworked and is now some kind of hidden unknown), but they have joined the war under the ravages of the Void.

Once again, the Coalition's equipment has been upgraded. Around. After a series of defeats, there is a turning point. At least the Yodeler Air Force, allowing the Coalition to restart with enough firepower to suppress it.

Those wandering Void Monitors can easily pollute a large group of various beings in any living place, creating a Void Air Regiment in a matter of days. The human side would simply not be able to compete with it without extreme firepower suppression.

The good thing about the various hidden worldly schools and the addition of races is that the entire Rune Continent has finally ushered in an unprecedented explosion of knowledge.

Under the threat of the void, all kinds of secret spiritual energy cultivation methods were spread. It was even adapted and then spread in the army. Various schools of magic began to merge and converge to form a more systematic and powerful magic system.

The coalition forces have even formed a brand new magic academy. And in just over a decade, more than two hundred forbidden spell-level war magic have been studied.

The Balance Sect, the Shivana Monastery, as well as the Infinite Sword Sect and the Wind Guardian Sword School, several ancient Ionian schools, have joined forces to develop a set of cultivation systems that integrate forging, psionic control, and actual combat swordsmanship, which began to spread among the army. And in the next ten years, the level of psionic control of all members of the army will be achieved.

Later, a scholar put forward a theory. War is the ladder of human progress. I don't really like this statement, but I can't argue with it. That's right, in those decades of fighting, everything in the Rune Continent has made unimaginably huge progress.

Of course, the price we pay is unimaginable. According to post-war statistics, before the Void Invasion, the population of the Rune Continent totaled 126 million, and during the most tragic period of the war, the population of the Rune Continent was less than 20 million.

Until thirty years ago, the Alliance Research Institute, formerly the Noxus Research Institute, succeeded in artificially extracting pure energy with enough person. Having had the means to absolutely restrain the void, the war began to turn into a counteroffensive.

The personnel of those research institutes, with the help of some kind of alchemy equipment, purified the free spiritual power in the air and transformed it into a higher quality, pure enough to neutralize the power of the void.

With this technology, we can repair the soil that has been contaminated by the Void, and even some lives that have been infected by the Void but are not serious. The power of the Void that overflowed from the rift of Acacia was finally no longer an unsolvable threat.

That night, I had a good night's sleep.
