Chapter 182: The Power of the World Rune
As Ezreal and Caterina challenged the Four Elemental Trials, the battle outside the mausoleum had already entered a white-hot stage.
Boom –
Boom –
Ruiz sent out countless bright blue beams, like meteorites falling, smashing into the light curtain with the momentum of thunder, causing a series of violent tremors.
Wow –
Waves of magic erupted from Ryan's body, condensing into brilliant runes in mid-air.
In the next moment, the mighty water spell swept upward, colliding with the magic released by Ruiz, and let out a roar.
The time of the moon had passed, but there was still no light in the sky, and there was chaos between the heavens and the earth, except for the light of the collision of magic.
Ryan stood at the top of the black gate, tilted his head slightly, and looked at Ruiz with an indifferent expression:
"You can't break through my magic, Ryze."
"Humph!" Ruiz snorted coldly, and the blue light of the magic book in his hand was even more dazzling, "It is impossible for the world rune to be handed over to you, and the entire world will be destroyed because of it!" ”
"Ruiz! What are you afraid of? Ryan sneered, "You want to be the guardian of the world, but you can protect the world by guarding the world runes?" ”
"At least not let the world be ruined by magic."
Rhy's expression didn't waver in the slightest, and he continued to bombard the shield made by Ryan.
The two of them attack and defend each other, and the magic seems to collide endlessly in the air.
After a long time, Ryan lowered his eyes, his expression full of disappointment.
Although his magic power is not as good as the Ruiz accumulated for thousands of years, not to mention that the opponent's body has long been corroded by the world runes, and the magic he can carry is far superior to him.
But in his eyes, Ruiz is still just a mediocre person who has no treasure mountain and does not develop it.
If the other party really fused the power of the world rune, he could be killed on the spot in an instant.
If you don't have the strength to beat everything, you are not qualified to stick to your beliefs.
Moreover, the enemies of Runeterrae will not give up on invading because they don't use the World Rune.
Astrals, Underworld, Darkspawn, Void.
Ruiz is nothing more than an unqualified Guardian!
Bang!!!
Heaven and earth collided violently again, and the roar followed, constantly stimulating the eardrums of those watching the battle below.
The universe is vast and powerful.
Bang! Bang bang!! Bang!
Everyone's hearts were contracting violently and beating violently. In their hearts, they invariably had a thought about how small their existence was in the face of this collision of gods and gods.
Interior of the mausoleum.
"Hell, why is the Trial of the Wind so disgusting, it's much more difficult than the first three."
Ezreal grumbled, but his body ran forward as fast as he could, interspersed with several arcane jumps.
And Caterina still ran behind him with her back on her back, her two sharp blades in the air like nimble butterflies.
Soaring
The blade sliced through the air, bringing arcs and arcs to slash at the invisible objects in the air.
"Ding! Bite! Bite! ”
A crisp clashing sound, the sound of metal colliding with metal, the two sharp blades were constantly bounced apart by the invisible object, and under the control of the wielder, they attacked again.
The wind was originally a light thing, but at this moment it brought a cold killing machine.
The Wind Trials that Ezreal and the others are navigating are extremely difficult, and they need to fend off invisible winds from all sides, or reach the portal at the end of the passage as quickly as possible.
As the blades collided with the wind, Katerina's bright face always had a thoughtful look.
In the battle with the invisible wind, she seems to have realized something.
It was a fleeting haze, as light as the wind but extremely sharp.
Suddenly, her eyebrows furrowed, and the crimson eyeshadow in the corners of her eyes shone like blood, and Caterina showed a hint of abruptness.
In the next moment, her hand holding the knife lifted slightly, swinging back and forth in a small area at a burst of speed, and the blade that had just rebounded into her hand struck out in a lighter and slower manner.
Hmmm-
The sound of the blade cutting through the air was even more ethereal and graceful, as if a taut filament was stirring slightly.
Compared to the past, the new way of slashing seems to be light and soft, but the sharp edge of the blade is much greater than before, and the white light flashes, hitting the invisible wind fiercely.
Bite!!!
A sound far greater than the previous one came, and the corners of Katerina's mouth rose to a smile.
She stretched out her hand and took the two daggers that rebounded again, and there was a faint cold glint in her bright eyes.
"Huh!"
The sound of a sharp blade breaking through the air sounded again.
The two daggers continued to diverge in the air, and dozens of daggers shot straight forward in a row.
Bite!!!
At about the same time, all blades collided with the wind in all directions, making a tooth-aching screeching sound.
Ezreal stuck out his fingers and blocked his ears, and by this moment he had reached the portal, and was turning around to watch Caterina battle with the wind with a surprised expression.
Well, he thought that this level was just a test of whether he could run fast enough, and he really didn't think that he could be crushed with strength.
While he sighed silently, he couldn't help but look down at his torn cuffs
Well, small mistakes, don't worry!
Soon, Ezreal straightened her hair, smoothed out the wrinkles on her body, and put a smile on her face again.
At the very least, he made it to the portal.
"Let's go!"
But in an instant, Caterina came to his side, her voice as beautiful and frozen as ever.
"Uh-good!"
Ezreal came to his senses, nodded, and quickly followed Caterina into the portal.
To be honest, he was surprised by the four trials he had gone through now, and it stands to reason that the Mage King's trials should not be so simple.
Unless, the Mage King itself is not strong enough.
With the current difficulty of playing a house, he felt that the strength of the Mage King was about the same as his own.
At this level, there is no need for the council to go through the troubles.
As soon as he teleported to the ground, the sight of Ezreal made Ezreal take a breath of cool air, completely shattering his previous childish thoughts.
Seeing the scene in front of him, his eyes almost froze, and Ezreal swallowed with difficulty and muttered:
"You say, do you know that the gods of the Ascension know? Giant God Peak! ”
In front of them was an underground palace covered in blue light.
The scale of the palace is not small, but it is dilapidated, and the remnants of stones and tiles are scattered, and it lives up to its former glory.
However, it was not the abandoned palace that frightened the two.
On the few remaining beams, there were countless disgusting purple creatures, their appearance was so wild and distorted that they could not open their mouths, and their hoarse roars were described in appropriate language, like unfinished drafts by a painter, suddenly with the vitality of life.
They also noticed Ezreal, opening the organ that they couldn't call a mouth, and roaring and roaring, and their numbers were unusually densely packed, one overlapping the other.
Just looking at it makes people feel their scalp tingle and their hearts tremble.
If it weren't for the light curtain in front of him to block these creatures, Ezreal had no doubt that his fate would be overwhelmed by purple, and he would have been completely devoured, leaving not even the dregs left.
What's worse is that he actually knows these ugly purple guys!
So now he was glad that the light curtain had stopped the screams of those guys, otherwise just listening to them would have killed him and Caterina on the spot.
Ezreal looked up at Katarina, who was still standing in her previous position, but the knuckles of her fingers holding the knife were white, and she seemed to be extremely forced, restraining the emotions that fluctuated inside.
Following her line of sight, there was a white skeleton kneeling in the pile of rubble outside the light curtain.
The skeleton is surprisingly intact, and from the structural point of view, it is a human corpse, and the flesh on his body has long since turned to fly ashes, and the bones are not white but have a little gray and cyan.
The human skeleton remained in a kneeling position among the rocks, facing the curtain of light, holding an object in his hand, as if in repentance.
And floating in the palm of his hand was the world rune that Ryan had told her to get, a magical thing with a dark blue magical brilliance.
"Don't go!"
Caterina was about to step forward when Ezreal hurriedly stopped her.
"How?" Caterina paused.
She was indeed anxious to get the World Rune, but she could also tell that it was this magical object that created the light curtain to keep those ugly monsters out.
"If I'm not mistaken, these are void creatures." Ezreal swallowed again, undisguised horror on his face.
"The Void?" Hearing this word, Caterina's face froze slightly.
She did not join Vazooan's expedition, but Seraphine told her about it.
The Void is extremely dangerous, and even Ryan takes some effort to deal with.
"Did you find anything?" Caterina asked.
She glanced around earnestly, her right hand resting on the necklace around her neck, ready to crush it at any moment.
Ezreal observed in silence for a few seconds, and a wry smile withdrew from the corner of his mouth:
"I doubt it. It's all a conspiracy of the Mage King. ”
"How?"
"They foresaw Shurima's conquest of Acacia and the destruction of Acacia, so they opened a passage to the void in their own mausoleum." Ezreal had horror in his eyes, and his voice trembled as he spoke his guess.
If the Mage King's plan succeeds, the entire Shurima Continent will have to turn into a Void Land!
"Together?" Caterina raised an eyebrow and summed it up succinctly.
"That's right, I can probably understand the Mage King's thoughts"
"Whether it's an exiled descendant or an accidental intruder, since you're here, you owe it to avenge Acacia. That's why those trials are so easy. Ezreal finished in one breath, and the shock in his heart was difficult to suppress.
"It seems that the Mage King does not believe in his own inheritance, but instead thinks that the Void can solve everything." Caterina scoffed.
She guessed that the Ascended Celestial God who sealed this place might know about it, so he sealed it forever.
And the corpse in front of them was the first person to find this place.
Obviously, the other party opened the real door of the mausoleum, but alas
What awaits him is not the inheritance of the Mage King, but the invasion of the void like purgatory.
Caterina had heard Ryan say that he was the ancestor of the Noxians.
The other party chose to fight to the death and not retreat, which stimulated the power of the world's runes and built an impregnable barrier. For hundreds of years, the Void creatures have not been able to move forward even half a step.
Ezreal thought of this as well, looked at the corpse with admiration, and sighed:
"I just don't know how strong this magic light curtain is, ordinary magic can't resist the devouring of the void at all."
He had a hunch that the magic of the mysterious object was even more advanced than the energy released by his armguards.
Hearing this, Caterina took a few steps forward, and under Ezreal's nervous gaze, she came to the side of the white bone:
"Now we can't get in, get ready to escape."
"What?"
Before Ezreal could come to her senses, she saw Caterina crush the necklace around her neck.
The dazzling blue light burst out in an instant, forming a rune array.
Ryan in the outside world immediately had a sense and a response action.
He first raised his head and looked at Ruiz above, a smile rose on the corner of his mouth, and he directly opened the rune circle and disappeared into it.
Ryan !! Ruiz roared in rage.
He could feel the powerful magic that burst out of the space as it was connected, and there was something unusually evil in it.
But in order to stop Ryan, he didn't care so much.
The World Rune had appeared, and he couldn't let it fall into Ryan's hands.
Before he could forcibly shatter the protective shield underneath, he felt his movement suddenly blocked, and a layer of magic of unknown origin covered his body.
"Blight!"
Unexpectedly, a silent, ancient voice came from the depths of the desert.
In an instant, Ruiz felt that the magic running in his body was blocked, and his spell casting was stagnant, and it was extremely difficult to even move his body.
"Bachelor's !!"
His gaze almost erupted in flames, looking straight in the direction he had just spoken.
On the desert, a kobold wearing Shurima's sacrificial robe was slowly approaching:
"Archmage Ruiz, I'm not good at fighting, so I can only trap you."
The scholar raised his axe-like scepter in his hand, and a golden light condensed from it:
"Drink!"
With a soft snort, a blue-purple magical aura enveloped Ryze, restricting his movements.
Ruiz roared, sprinting around the magic circle, uncontrollably and furiously casting his magic, but unable to break the cage that bound him.
Eventually, he stopped and looked at the scholar angrily:
"Nasus! You're going to ruin the world! ”
Surprisingly angry, he called the other party by his first name.
Nasus's gaze looked at the mausoleum behind him, shook his head slightly, and sighed:
"No, you don't know what true destruction is, archmage."
With that, Nasus sat cross-legged on the sand, motionless.
Both sides knew that it would be difficult for Ruiz to break through the cage he had created in a short period of time.
When the forest snake in the distance saw Nasus appear, his face was stunned for a few seconds, shaking his head, and his mouth shouted that it was impossible.
Seeing his madness, Cassiopeia frowned slightly: "Who is he?" You seem to know him. ”
"He is the Grand Master of Shurima, and he is the elder we respect the most! It is said that he already existed during the time of Gushurima. Mori said stumblingly, suppressing the shock in his heart.
"Gushurima?" Cassiopeia looked at Nasus in surprise, "It's been 3,400 years ago, no wonder he's so powerful. ”
"It's not." Mori shook his head, "You don't understand what I mean, he's a scholar, we always thought he had no strength!" ”
"Snort."
Cassiopeia chuckled, this time looking at the forest with strange eyes, and teased:
"People who can live from that era to the present, who doesn't have a little strength. According to you, Deputy Speaker Svein is also just an administrator. ”
"Uh, is the Vice Governor strong too?" Mori was stunned.
"Hahaha" Cassiopeia laughed, looking up and down at the Python, "Ten thousand of you and I will be stacked together, and he will be able to solve it in a second." ”
"The sun is above!" The snake took a sharp breath and patted its chest vigorously, and the snake's tail trembled with fear.
Interior of the mausoleum.
In the rune array, Ryan's figure slowly condensed.
But what is disturbing is that when Ryan appeared, the entire mausoleum actually trembled to a great extent.
Ezreal felt the tremor coming from the soles of his feet, and his face looked anxious:
"Mr. Parliament Chief's strength is too strong, and his arrival will inevitably trigger the mausoleum's self-destruction mechanism."
"Self-destruct mechanism? Can you destroy the Void creatures? Caterina was a little happy when she heard the self-destruct.
But after all, her body was still tense, and her hands could hold the world runes at any time in case anything unexpected happened.
Ezreal shook his head vigorously and said calmly, "This should be a means left by the Mage King, and the self-destruction is to completely open the Void Passage. ”
"That Us"
Before Caterina could finish speaking, she saw Ryan's figure already solidified and appeared inside the mausoleum.
"Don't worry, leave it to me." Ryan had a gentle voice and a warm smile on his face.
His eyes reflected the light of the world runes, and he stretched out his palm forward, and the world runes floated towards his hand in a light manner.
Hearing Ryan's calm tone, Ezreal was finally able to exhale freely, and put his heart back in his stomach, his eyebrows and eyes stretched, and he even had the leisure to pay attention to the dry bones that knelt down.
But he was the only one who had the leisure, and Caterina had long since folded her posture and stood guardedly behind Ryan, waiting for his next order.
The dark blue rune fell into Ryan's palm, and the two blue magical lights gradually merged.
"Buzz !!"
A bright light suddenly erupted from the world rune.
At the same time, Ryan stretched out his other hand, and the runes on it quickly condensed and flew towards the world runes.
The world runes were gradually filled with the runes given by Ryan, and now the light it emitted was almost as dazzling as the sun, making Ezreal and the others unable to open their eyes.
"As expected."
Seeing a red rune being resisted, Ryan sighed lightly in disappointment.
Immediately afterward, a dark blue rune with a special shape, like substance, floated outwards from his heart and floated in mid-air.
It was the physical rune that Sindra had given him, 'Storm Gathering', the only physical rune of the witchcraft system in his hand.
Airplanes!!!
As soon as the 'Storm Gathering' appeared, it seemed to be inexplicably pulled, floating to the side of the world runes at an extremely fast speed, and then narrowing and closing proportionally, becoming the size of a fingernail, flying around the world runes.
Ryan knew that this was a symbol of the successful combination of the 'Storm Gathering' and the World Runes.
He could feel that the magic contained in the combined runes was deeper and stronger, and more importantly, the compatibility with him was further improved.
"There's one last step left."
Ryan glanced at the mausoleum that would not collapse for a while, and after adding a layer of shield in front of the void creature, he stared at the world rune in his hand with a rare nervous look.
At this moment, the world runes were bursting with dazzling light, slowly merging into Ryan's palm.
The beam of light it emitted scattered straight outward, and the entire mausoleum seemed to sink into the sea of magic, and the void creatures that were radiated by the beam instantly swelled and burst open in a very short time, turning into a pool of purple water.
A large number of Void creatures roared and exploded to death, allowing Ezreal and the others to see where they were covered.
It was a small hollow, with a deep purple glow bubbling inside, and countless insect-like void creatures were constantly pouring out of the hole.
But as soon as they came out, they were swept by the magic blue light, and their bodies swelled, exploding and dying, and the cycle repeated
Not only that, but the strong light from the world's runes even penetrated the mausoleum, allowing Ruiz and the others to get a glimpse.
Seeing this, Ruiz's attack became even more frenzied, so much so that Nasus, who was originally sitting cross-legged, stood up.
The beam of light in the mausoleum has reached a level comparable to the divine light of the Giant God Peak.
Inside the mausoleum, as the world runes gradually merged into Ryan's body, a blue magical aura unconsciously emitted from his body.
It's just that Ryan is already frowning before he is halfway in.
He was able to ignore the severe pain of the fusion, but it was only halfway through the fusion that it stalled
"Is it already the limit?"
Yu Yu let out a sigh, and Ryan's other hand covered the world runes, and different runes condensed in his palm, wrapping downward.
This time, instead of festering, he cast runic magic.
Among the rune magic he condensed, there were almost no runes about the four major elemental systems, all of them were special runes, of which the dark runes were the most.
Eighth-Order Special Rune Spell - Darkness Forever Sealed.
It was a spell led by Sindra, designed specifically for the situation he was encountering now, in order to forcibly seal the world runes in his body.
The magic blue glow in Ryan's eyes gradually turned black, and the black orb on the spellcaster's hand also revealed its original appearance.
The part of the world runes that remained outside the body was entwined by hundreds of runes, forming a solid triangle, and the posture forcefully forced it into Ryan's body.
"Uh-huh!"
Ryan snorted from the intense pain caused by the magical disorder in his body, but his hand was still pressed down.
The runes of the world that had not yet fused were forcibly integrated into his palm under his spell.
Immediately afterward, the world runes dissolved into an illusion in his body and moved to the location of his heart.
"Buzz!"
In an instant, majestic and vast, rich and abundant magic power fluctuations surged out of Ryan's body, like a rising tide.
It's just the unconscious fluctuations brought about by the fusion, which actually stirred up the small void channel, which is a little unstable.
Even the other side of the passage was not spared, and a large number of void creatures were swept away by the magic and died extremely simply.
Ryan's eyes, the flickering magical light was already like substance, fused into two mysterious rune shapes, almost exactly the same as the dark blue world runes.
He didn't rely on any support, as if he had escaped the gravity of the world, and slowly floated in mid-air.
The scattered magic energy gathered around his body, forming a mana cloak that shimmered with a deep blue shimmer, lightly clinging to his body.
"Handsome and strong, magic, so dazzling!"
Ezreal looked at Ryan's new look, and jealousy and envy hung unabashedly on his face.
If he has this kind of demeanor one day, it is estimated that he will wake up laughing in his dreams!
"World Runes. It's far more than we can imagine. ”
Ryan's eyes seemed to see through the still shaking mausoleum, and saw the figure that was still in the immortal fortress.
The self-destruction of the Mage King's Tomb continues, and it has not stopped because Ryan has fused the world runes, and the time for destruction is getting closer and closer.
Ryan knew this, and he looked around without making much movement, just raising his index finger slightly.
"Buzz!"
A strange wave burst from his fingers, and everywhere he went, the vibrations in the mausoleum were wiped out.
Seeing this scene, Ezreal's excitement was almost uncontrollable.
If this place is not destroyed, when the news of this place being explored is released, then the whole world will not know his name!
Noxus is a great place to be, and it won't erase the exploits of hard-working explorers!
In less than a moment, the vibration caused by the self-destruction of the entire mausoleum was completely calmed down and calm was restored.
With that done, Ryan shifted his gaze to the void entrance, his brow furrowed slightly.
