"Josh, put down your weapon quickly! That's not something you can touch! ”

"Archbishop, that kid has been completely devoured by the power of corruption, and he is hopeless!"

"Please also ask the archbishop to make a quick decision, we must cut off his connection to that ancient weapon in time!"

“……”

A loud shouting in his ears woke Josh from his drowsy consciousness.

"What's the noise in the early morning, and you don't let people sleep?!"

Josh opened his eyes impatiently, stunned by the scene before him.

His bedroom was gone, and he was now surrounded by a group of soldiers in silver-white armor with swords and halberds in their hands.

Behind the soldiers, more than a dozen old men in hooded robes made of dozens of fabrics overlapping each other stared at the side.

They were holding wooden sticks with white stones at the top, and delicate metal pendants on their chests that seemed to be made of the same stone as the top of the staff, set in multiple triangular overlapping combinations, faintly emitting a faint light.

"It's ...... Which? ”

Josh looked around blankly, and raised his left hand to hold his head a little swollen.

And his simple behavior, which was not mixed with any dangerous moves, stirred the nerves of everyone present except Josh.

At the same time, Josh's head sounded in the voice of another cold and crazy mature woman:

[Damn, damn it...... A mere mortal, just an ant...... Impossible, absolutely impossible! 】

"Who's talking?"

The sudden sound startled Josh, and he subconsciously took a half step back, which stimulated an old man in a robe who couldn't hold it.

Seeing a dazzling white light, Josh didn't react at all, only to feel that he was wrapped in a raging flame, burning from the inside out.

But this feeling only lasted less than half a second, and with the tingling sensation coming from the cold and numb right arm, a chill suddenly dispersed the whole body, completely neutralizing the burning caused by the white light.

[Fool! Distraction in battle is a big no-no! Are you just standing and waiting to die?! 】

The woman's angry screams exploded in Josh's mind again.

[It's a great shame that my dignified dark descendant would be subject to the hands of a mortal like you! 】

The woman's roar gradually fell, but Josh was stunned: "Wait, wait! You say you're ...... Darkspawn?! ”

It was only then that he noticed the abnormality in his right arm.

The white light dissipated, and Josh looked down to see his own dark red right arm.

The scarlet filth climbed to the top of the arm, the monstrous veins almost the thickness of fingers, knots throbbing, like worms lurking under the skin, trying in vain to break free from the shackles of flesh and blood, and burrow out of the body.

Looking downward, the hilt of a long knife matching the color of Josh's arm was clutched by his right hand, which had sharp claws.

The long knife is about the width of a man's thumb and about a meter and a half long, and the tan handle is engraved with fine anti-slip patterns, and the shallow curved blade is coated with a layer of corrupted clothing.

Near the grip is barbed jagged, and an amber evil vertical pupil adorns the blade, giving the entire long knife a depraved and evil aura.

For some reason, Josh's mind suddenly came to mind with a piece of equipment from a League of Legends game - the Dance of Death!

[I didn't expect you, a mortal, to be quite knowledgeable and even know that my weapon is the Dance of Death. 】

The words of the Darkspawn of the Long Knife were not nervous about Josh's plight surrounded by soldiers and mages, but rather full of satisfaction that he knew his weapon.

[It's really strange, I was about to devour you, but my blood magic suddenly failed, and I completely lost control of your body. 】

[I don't know exactly what went wrong, but it doesn't matter, it just proves that you are special, you are indeed a container worth using.] 】

[Uh-hahaha-haha-the freedom I've been waiting for for a while is just around the corner, so what's the point of waiting? Sooner or later, your body will be my ......]

The Darkspawn was still chattering, and Josh exhaled heavily, squinting at the soldiers and mages who were still struggling with him dozens of meters away.

The attack seemed to be an accidental miss, and the old woman who was clearly the leader in the center was reprimanding the person who cast the spell.

Since the other party didn't plan to continue to move, the tense atmosphere eased slightly, and Josh didn't need to be too nervous for the time being.

Ignoring the centuries-old silence in his mind, the somewhat talkative Darkspawn, Josh pondered the situation in front of him.

The first thing to consider is that I have crossed this point inexplicably, obviously sleeping well at home, why did I suddenly cross into the rune land of the world view of the League of Legends?

Josh still knows the background of this game, so he naturally knows the origin of the Darkspawn.

The Darkspawn, which means "Fallen" in the ancient Shurima language, are the blood-colored legends of the ancient ages, the warriors of the Celestials of the once glorious Ascended Empire, now buried in the millennium.

Due to the fall of the royal family of Shurima, after the Void War, the Ascended Ones, who had suffered a heavy mental blow, established themselves as the orthodoxy of the inheritance empire, divided one side, and friction and strife abounded, gradually evolving into mutual attacks.

However, since you have already crossed, it is a little redundant to think about "why you crossed over", especially in the face of the situation in front of you.

Aside from words, Josh has not inherited the memories of his body's owner, and he doesn't know what timeline he is in or where he is.

Looking at the surroundings and the strange clothes of the people in front of them, you can at least rule out a few countries that you are familiar with.

"Demacia has silver-white armor, but they hate demon law, have a forbidden demon system, and it is impossible for a mage group to exist, while Noxus advocates practicality, and the style of plate armor is very wild.

"Freljord is an ice field, Shurima is a desert area, Piltover and Zaun use technology, Bilgewater is a gathering place for pirates, not to mention Ishtar, where the climate is not like a rainforest......

"Could it be that this is Ionia?"

[What are you thinking about, you ant...... Where is Ionia? 】

"Can you stop and stop screaming in my head!" Josh shook his head vigorously, "Also, don't eavesdrop on my thoughts!" ”

How dare you insult the great ascension...... Well? The sun disc shelters, how do you do it...... Hey, don't squeeze me out! 】

What is the situation on Josh's side of the Darkborn, but it seems that she can no longer probe her own mind without her permission.

The old woman not far away had finished talking to the others around her, and her eyes with mixed emotions turned to this side.

For some reason, Josh felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart.

Forcibly suppressing this emotion that should not belong to him, Josh frowned and thought about the sudden interjection of the female darkseed just now, and took the initiative to ask: "As a celestial warrior of the Shurima Empire, you don't even know about Ionia?" ”

[Huh? Why should I know about Ionia? 】

The Darkspawn's tone was proud, as if Ionia were just an insignificant barbarian.

"Are you an illiterate person who can only use force and has never read?"

Suddenly, Josh felt his right arm twitch, and the sharp pain in his heart stimulated his nerves, and he couldn't help grinning in pain.

Shut your mouth, little ghost! My culture courses are taught by the scholars themselves! 】

It turned out to be a student of the national-level Generalissimo Nasus!

Josh was surprised, "Then why don't you even know the name of the archipelago continent to the east of the Valoran continent?" ”

"You mean the firstborn land?" The female dark descendant suddenly said, "I said earlier, who knew that you people from Fuguang Island had given it a rotten name like 'What do you love'. 】

Fukuko Island?!

Josh keenly caught a key phrase.

Did I travel thousands of years ago to the timeline of the canonical history......

Josh muttered in the back of his mind.

[If you want to go to the land of the newborn, or whatever else he is, give me your body, and I will take you there after I finish solving the trash fish in front of me. 】

You are playing this abacus, I don't know how many universes the earth has heard it!

Josh secretly ignored her, staring straight at the old woman who walked slowly behind the soldier and cast her gaze at her.

"Josh Russell, I see you're in a much better state of mind than before...... Can you hear me now? ”
