Chapter 45: The Truth of the Apocalypse?
Void. On the edge of the sea on a certain continent stood a few people scattered around. In the dark night, a crystal ball exudes a misty brilliance, adding the only bit of light to the night.
Those people all had a lot of strength, and a powerful aura spread around them. At this time, they were surrounding the crystal ball, and everyone's serious eyes never left the strange crystal ball.
The crystal ball paints a strange and vivid picture of a continent that is filled with chaos and ashes. I don't know when it began, the heavens and the earth seemed to be torn apart, and a huge crack appeared in the sky full of bright stars. Countless dark gray unidentified creatures poured out of the rift and began a frenzied slaughter of the people on the continent······
The unknown creatures with the breath of death seemed to be lifeless, fearless of death, and didn't even know what pain was, they just rushed forward, and at the sight of life they frantically obliterated it. Their individual strength does not seem to be very strong, but the number of them seems to be endless. Their appearance is like death descending, and everywhere they go, not a single grass grows. Soon, death and fear spread across the continent. The corpse plague was everywhere, and that continent had become synonymous with hell······
"Do you want to continue?" Marzaha's left hand glowed purple, and the image previously reflected by the crystal ball was replaced by a cloudy white light for a moment.
"No need······ Gavin sighed and muttered, "I've roughly guessed the result······"
"How do you know what's going to happen in the future and be able to show it to us?" a few suspicions appeared on Ember's ordinary face, and he looked at Marzaha with burning eyes, "Or are you lying to us?"
"Hahahaha, I don't have to lie to you, and besides, you don't deserve it. Hearing this, Marzaha couldn't help but laugh, "I'm a Void Prophet, what is the Prophet good at, don't you need me to explain?"
"So the mainlanders in the Runeterras you showed us earlier are preparing to defend against those invading creatures?" Galen was skeptical, his big rough hands clenched unconsciously.
"'Doomsday,' this is the name given to this invasion by the only time prophet on your backward continent who is qualified for me to watch. Marzaha nodded with a smirk, "He called those creatures 'Void Acolytes.'" ”
"Time Prophet, you mean Master Kieran, the Time Keeper?" Galen's eyes burned brightly, "You have been in touch?"
"It's just a strange conversation······ Marzaha said indifferently.
"What are you trying to illustrate by showing us this?" said Gavin, thoughtful, earnestly and calmly, his pale yellow pupils that shimmered like stars staring at Marzaha's purple eyes.
"It's nothing, I just think that as a person from that continent, you should let you know. Feeling Gawen's sword-like gaze, Marzaha felt a little cool, and his voice unconsciously became half a point louder, "In addition, although the time prophet saw the coming of the end times, he did not correctly predict the time when the end would come. The elites of that continent were gathered in the Land of Runeterra, where the crack in the sky appeared, to prepare for the end of the mistaken belief that tomorrow would come······"
Except for the hoarse voice of Marzaha, only the cool breeze whispered.
"Is there a connection between time here and time on that continent?" asked Ember with a wink.
Marzaha nodded slowly, not speaking.
"Is there any way to save our continent?" After a long time, Jiawen looked at Marzaha with some reluctance, and there was a bit of pleading in his tone, "Since you know about this apocalypse, and even surpass Master Kiran in prophecy, I think you should know something, right?"
"I can tell you what I saw, the end. Whether you believe it or not. Marzaha's hoarse laughter made Gavin and the others tingle their eardrums, "Your Valoran continent has been desolate because of that incomparably great disaster, in which countless lives have been taken, and in the end, it has become a barren ······ No one knows where the fear-inducing stuff comes from, including me······"
Hearing this, as if he had been hammered, Gavin's ears buzzed, and Galen slammed his greatsword into the ground, surrounded by golden light.
With Marzaha's silence, the surroundings fell into a cold dead silence.
"But ······" As soon as the conversation changed, Marzaha immediately said in a slightly hopeful voice, "I have a solution, although it is not a perfect solution, but it may be possible to find a glimmer of life......
"What is it?" Although he was completely led by Marzaha, because he was concerned about the mainland, Jiawen immediately asked.
"I said that the time predicted by the prophets of the mainland was wrong, in fact, the real time was half a month later, and the people on the mainland who were preparing for the end mistakenly thought it was tomorrow......" Marzaha said calmly, and with a slight wave of his hands, the white crystal ball immediately appeared in the picture of the Runeteres, "That is to say, you still have half a month to persuade the people of the mainland to welcome the end with you." ”
"If you send us back to the mainland, where will we land?" seemed to think of something, and a bad premonition came to Jiawen's mind, and he asked with some uneasiness.
"That's it...... The scene in the crystal ball...... Marzaha's shrill voice confirmed Garvin's apprehension, "and, unfortunately, coincided with the location of the crack......
"You, you're ...... Did you mean it?" said Galen, opening his mouth and stammering a little.
"I guess that rift should be an opening to the Otherworld, right?" Garvin shook his head at Galen and patted him on the shoulder, "Those unidentified creatures that Master Kieran called 'Void Acolytes' are also from the Otherworld, but they are different from this otherworld. I'm right, Void Prophet?"
"Your guess is accurate. Glancing at Galen, who hung his head, Marzahar laughed hoarsely, "When that rift opens, anyone from the Otherworld can break into your continent through the rift as long as the power is strong enough...... Including me. ”
"Then the persuasion you said earlier is absolutely impossible to hold......" Galen snorted lightly and said in an unfriendly tone, "You can't imagine how strong Master Kieran's influence is on the Valoran continent, even if the time of the prophecy is wrong, as you said. If we enter the continent through that rift, we will definitely be treated as an aggressor......"
"Galen is right," Garvin nodded. Judging from the strict battle in the Land of Runeterra, the people on the continent have already confirmed Kieran's prophecy, if Jiawen and the others enter the continent through that crack at this time, the time and place are so consistent, it is no wonder that the people on the continent will be regarded as invaders, "If the landing location is there, even us, there will definitely be trouble." Plus, and your words......"
Gavin glanced forward and backward, and finally focused on Marzaha.
"I will not leave the Void for a while, and the Dark Leader by my side, Sindra, will go with you on behalf ......of the Void," Marzaha shook his head at Gavin and continued, "It seems that if you go to the mainland, you will encounter a conflict, and even if you win this conflict, you will not be able to fully convince the people of the continent to join you in resisting the true apocalypse. And if you can't unite to fight the apocalypse, then there is only one outcome that awaits you, and that is ...... Perish. ”
"Then what exactly is the method you are talking about?" said Ember in the face of such an appetizing Void Prophet.
"If you want to convince others, you can't do it verbally, then you can only solve it by ......" Marzaha moved his gaze to the crystal ball, "and violent means. ”
"Do you want us to fight with the people on the mainland?" Hearing this, Galen couldn't help but take a step forward, and a strong momentum came out of his body, pointing directly at Marzaha, "Before the invaders in the apocalypse arrive, we will kill each other first, this is the good idea you have in mind?"
"It's hard to make a big deal...... "Sindra on Malzaha's side glanced at the excited Galen, sighed lightly, and said with some disappointment.
"My method has a low success rate, and it carries a dangerous ......" Ignoring Galen and his questioning, Marzaha looked at Gavin with purple flame eyes.
