Chapter 142: Monolith! Zorani's trail!
"But why wouldn't you want to do it to Moffett?"
On the eastern border of Shurima, at the intersection of the jungle and the desert, walking in the cool shade of the trees, Zuo Chi was looking at Varus beside him with a curious expression.
Varus stroked the longbow in his hand and said lightly, "Because I don't want to see the only monolith in this world disappear in front of me." ”
Varus said this with a deep look of nostalgia in his eyes, but perhaps because he was now a Darkborn, he didn't want to show it.
"Oh?" Hearing Varus's words, Zuo Chi couldn't help but be a little curious.
As for Moffitt, Zuo Chi only knew that he was the guardian of Ishtar today, and it seemed to be related to Shurima a long time ago, but Zuo Chi really didn't know much about the specific content.
"Let's talk about it." Zuo Chi asked with a smile.
Varus gave Zuo Chi a blank look, and his tone suddenly took on a deep hatred.
"That crumb, the creation of the monolith is the only contribution he has made to the Shurima Empire, otherwise he is a wretch.
If it weren't for him, how could Hollock have died! ”
"Huh!?"
Hearing this, Zuo Chi's heart couldn't help but jump violently.
Hollock Zuochi knew, after all, he had heard Aatrox mention it when he was crying in the abyss.
It was an ascendant general like Aatrox, who once held the blade of the underworld deep into the void rift and pierced the void heart with a sword, which enabled the Ascendant army from the outside world to successfully seal the void and end the protracted void war.
But now Zuochi has received new information, Hollock died at the hands of Nazouk?
Nazouk, another new name, and Zuo Chi always felt that the name was extremely familiar.
Pondering the name, Varus's voice continued.
As mentioned earlier, Ishtar was a vassal empire of the ancient Shurima Empire, and unlike Acacia, Ishtar had many powerful warriors who gained the approval of the Sun Disc and became the god of ascension in the eyes of the world.
And this Nazouk is one of them!
Born in Ishtar, Nezuk is an extremely powerful elemental mage, possessing unparalleled elemental magic and the pride of Qi Tian.
Faced with the rift in the void that had left the Shurima Empire in ruins, Natsuk asked the Shurima Emperor at the time to create a weapon that could rival the Void.
After months of unbearable human toil and the consumption of countless resources, Nazuk unveiled his strategic weapon, the Monolith, a living rock weapon, in the presence of the entire Ascendant Legion!
It is said to be a monolith, but it is actually an incomparably huge floating fortress, almost the size of a city, suspended in the air, able to completely obscure everything in the sky.
The monolith is maintained by a group of the greatest elemental mages and Natsuk himself, and is accompanied by other Ishtar warriors.
As soon as this weapon came out, it attracted the attention of the entire Shurima.
Nezuk and his superweapon arrived at their destination, once again confronting the endless howls and bottomless darkness of the Abyssal Realm, and the hordes of Void Monsters it had created.
The demonic suppression crystal on the monolith continued to project thunderbolts downward, smelting the yellow sand below into glass, and elemental magic of various attributes fell from the monolith, frantically destroying the void creatures below.
Man-sel-sized demon-suppressing grenades rained down on the monolith, causing a violent roar on the battlefield below.
It was violent and on a scale never before seen in Runeterra, and the sorcery they used was enough to flatten an entire civilization or turn an entire continent into a memory, and it was this power that was unleashed and inflicted on the Void.
It was even said at the time that if the Shurima Empire could have a few more strategic weapons like monoliths, perhaps the entire Runemar would be subjugated to Shurima's feet.
However, no matter how strong the monolith is, the Void is by no means an enemy that can be easily defeated.
The strange void energy carved deep wounds into the monolith, making its surface rugged and charred, thus forming an unnatural stone, Murphy, which is the "bad stone" in the language of Ishtar.
The fortress was pushed to the limits of its design, laboriously repairing itself and stitching back together the damaged superstructure.
But even the most magical magic has a collapse tipping point.
Just as Nezuk gathered his fellow Ascendants to recharge the Void with one last charge, the monolith reached the limit of what it could bear.
Under the witness of the entire battlefield, the floating fortress that generally obscured the sky fell from the sky and crashed straight into the void crack.
Eventually, more than ninety percent of the monoliths crashed into the void rift and were swallowed by the void that never knew satisfaction.
The remaining small fragments were forced to break away from the main body during the fall of the monolith, turning into meteors and flying to every part of the Shurima Continent.
Of these, only one fragment was intact and uncontaminated by the power of the Void.
The fragment flew to the land of Ishtar, and for thousands of years, the rich elemental magic nourished the monolithic fragment, and gradually, the living rock acquired its own spiritual intelligence.
And this monolith fragment with wisdom is Moffett!
With that obsession engraved in his bones, Moffett became the patron saint of Ishtar, and he always spared no effort to fight against the void underground.
Speaking of which, Zuochi also knew why Verus would keep his hand on Moffett.
Yes, he was once a comrade-in-arms of Verus, and he had saved the lives of countless Ascended Gods and the people of Shurima.
And thinking of this, Zuo Chi suddenly raised his head suddenly, he seemed to think of where he had heard the name Nazuk!
Nazuk Zoike hadn't heard of it, but he had heard of it: Nezuk's Bronze Gauntlet, a strange weapon that gave Ezreal the ability to travel through space.
It's the one Ezreal wears on his hand!
Zuo Chi still clearly remembers that Ezreal should have followed the guidance of his missing parents and obtained this weapon in a mausoleum in Shurima.
Zuo Chi looked at Varus: "Varus, you don't seem to like this Nazuk very much?" ”
"Humph!"
Varus snorted heavily: "He is almost the most infected by the Void, and the humans call him the Darkborn Mad Demon and the Tyrant Nazuk. After everyone became a Darkborn, he even killed Horlock, who did not want to participate in the war, causing the only Blade of the Underworld that could hurt the heart of the Void to disappear. ”
However, he was very self-aware and knew that he would die sooner or later. After the central part of Shurima stabilized, he continued to enslave humans and helped him build a mausoleum comparable in size to the Shurima Emperor's Tomb. ”
"In the end, I really used it."
"Uh" Zuo Chi scratched his head.
What's the matter?
After other dark descendants grabbed the territory, they were all wanton and happy, thinking about expanding the territory all day long, how did they get to Nazuk, and they became in a hurry to repair their own graves?
Zuo Chi always feels that things are a little weird here?
Shaking his head, Zuo Chi didn't think about it so much, he was just curious about the Void War back then.
Back to Shurima again, it's time to get down to business.
"Varus, what's next for you?"
"Kill Zorani, of course!"
Varus glanced at Zuo Chi faintly: "What about you?" ”
Zuo Chi smiled at Varus, and he spread his hands:
"I originally wanted to go to Aatrox, but I can't sense each other like you Darkborn, so I'm going to have to follow you."
As Zuo Chi said, he also wants to go to Aatrox, after all, with Aatrox, the winning rate will undoubtedly be much higher.
Not to mention Aatrox's rumored Dark-Descended compatriots, Aatrox is already strong enough just after obtaining a demigod-level body.
If you want to kill Zolani, you must be the most suitable for Aatrox's group.
It's just a pity that Zuo Chi doesn't know where Aatrox is at all.
The continent of Shurima is endless, almost the size of the Demacian Empire and the Noxian Empire combined, and in such a place, trying to find Aatrox accurately is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
On the other hand, if you follow Varus now, you might be the first to find Zorani.
Since you can't join Aatrox and the others yet, let's try Zorani's current combat power first.
With the current combat power of him and Varus, it may not be possible to kill her if he can really kill her; Even if you can't beat it, you should be able to escape.
Compared with Zuo Chi's calmness, Varus was a little surprised:
"You've seen Aatrox!?"
Zuo Chi nodded: "Yes, what's wrong?" ”
Recalling what had happened in Freljord, Zuochi only wanted to say that he and Aatrox had not only met.
Varus took a deep look at Zuo Chi, and finally strolled forward.
"You didn't die in his hands, you weren't taken away by him, could it be that he was ready to raise you and wait for him to take it later? Cultivation system? ”
Zuo Chi: "."
What a mess!
Stepping up to Varus, Zuo Chi Masasei said, "Can you sense Zorani's location?" ”
Varus nodded heavily, but his expression was a little solemn, with a look of doubt in his eyes.
"I sensed Zorani's breath in a dozen places. And the intensity of the aura in each place is extremely similar, and it is still moving rapidly. Could it be that my perception is wrong?"
"Huh?"
Hearing Varus's words, Zuo Chi couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
"With Zorani's mastery of blood magic, it's all too easy for her to create a few illusions to confuse her enemies."
"Could it be that she was afraid that we would come to the door, so she deliberately created these illusions? But before Aatrox clearly said that she deliberately released her breath to provoke you and attract you to come. ”
Varus glanced at Zuoike, and finally, after some deliberation, Varus turned his longbow behind him and turned into a streamer of light and rushed forward, Zuoike following him.
"Let's go to the nearest place first!"
"Zorani can only be killed by me, and only I have the ability to kill her!"
In this regard, Zuo Chi has no rebuttal.
Because he knew that except for those followers of Aatrox who followed Aatrox, the other Dark Descendants were really ten disobedient and eight were not angry, and no one looked down on anyone.
Everyone feels that they are the strongest dark descendants, and everyone feels that the other party is not even qualified to carry their own shoes.
However, Zuochi was wrong here, because Varus wanted to kill Zorani, purely because his sister, whom Zorrani had killed, was missing.
In this way, Zuochi and Varus followed Zorani's breath and quickly swept towards the nearest breath.
Just as the two of them rushed out, Zuo Chi said to Varus, "Varus, restrain your breath and don't let Zorani find out that we are coming." ”
"Hmm."
Just when Zuochi and Varus left the border of Ishtar, what everyone didn't expect was that because of the previous battle between the two and Moffett, many creatures in the jungle lost their habitat and had to find territory again.
It may be easier for some small animals to find new territories, but for those elemental wurms who are extremely territorial, it is difficult to reach the sky!
Elemental wurms with different attributes simply cannot adapt to each other's territory, and in this case, the range of territories that wurms can choose from will be greatly reduced.
And after all the searches were fruitless, a water elemental wurm came to the eastern border of Ishtar.
Before him was an endless sea of watchmen.
However, even though it was separated from the Sea of Watchers, it still sensed the other side of the sea, the towering ancient tree that covered the sky and the sun, and the natural magic that was abundant on the island.
Looking back at the jungle of Ishtar, which had no place to stay, it flapped its wings and flew in the direction of the Shadow Isle.
Perhaps, he will gain a new habitat because of this move, but perhaps, it will be the beginning of another disaster.
Zuo Chi and Varus are extremely fast, and with their strength, they don't need to worry about the Void Creature Territory in the vast desert at all, they just need to crush them all the way with absolute strength.
Two streams of light, one gold and one dark red, swept through the sky, and all that was left on the ground behind them were arrows and rock spikes, as well as dense corpses of void creatures.
In this way, starting from the eastern border of the Shurima Empire, the two followed Varus's induction and quickly approached the middle of the Shurima Continent.
Originally, the two of them thought that no matter whether that place was Zorani's location or not, they would have to go over and see it.
However, just as Zuo Chi and Varus walked out of a distance of about a thousand miles, Varus's body suddenly stopped suddenly, and his body stopped in an instant.
"What's wrong?" Zuo Chi asked, tilting his head.
Varus said suspiciously, "I actually sensed Anaca's breath, and he went to another place where Zorani's breath was." ”
"Anaca? Who's that? Zuo Chi looked confused.
Varus's expression was a little inexplicable: "One of Aatrox's former followers, after Aatrox was sealed, also disappeared into the Runeterra. Now that it appears, it should be to find Aatrox. ”
Hearing this, Zuo Chi's eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly.
Verus wasn't a follower of Aatrox, so he didn't know that Aatrox had summoned his followers, but Zuochi did, after all, he was a Witness.
After a while, Zuo Chi patted Varus on the shoulder and suddenly said:
"Varus, let's go find Anaca!"
Varus: "Huh? ”
