Chapter 166: Armored Dragon Turtle! The Great War is coming!
In the confined space, more than a dozen violent forces seemed to have finally found an outlet, and they frantically attacked Zuo Chi in the center.
The star iron long knife in Zuo Chi's hand continued to swing, and the blade slashed out with the surging power of ascension, sweeping away all the energy surging in front of him.
The dozen or so Bakai in front of Zuo Chi had completely lost consciousness, their eyes were blood-red, and their twisted limbs were covered with sarcomas, and they rushed towards Zuo Chi again and again.
The power of the bright golden ascension collided wildly with the blue arcane energy, and the torrent of energy rippled through the underground treasury, slamming into the walls of the vault.
Countless blue circles appeared on the wall of the space where Zuo Chi was located, and these circles absorbed all the rippling energy fluctuations, and then reflected them back in the same posture.
For a moment, the already chaotic space directly turned into a prison filled with the power of ascension and arcane energy.
Zuo Chi's figure flickered quickly among the dozens, and while dodging attacks, he would also launch a counterattack towards Bakai, who was closest to him.
He knew very well that if he fought alone, even with one against three, he would have a great advantage, but now, it was not one or three bayquets that surrounded him in the middle, but a whole fourteen!
Although Zuo Chi's strength was strong, he was still far from the level of being able to defeat a dozen demigod-level Bakai on his own, so he could only fight and retreat, constantly looking for a way to leave this treasure house.
At the same time, Zuo Chi was also a little lucky, glad that he came here to find the Sun Emblem.
Otherwise, if it were Nasus, Zuo Chi couldn't imagine the consequences.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, caught off guard, Zuo Chi Qianchong's body was slammed into by a Ba Kai, and his body directly turned into a streamer and flew out upside down, hitting the wall of the space hard.
The blue circle appeared, and the walls were not destroyed in the slightest.
Without giving Zuo Chi any time to react, the moment he flew upside down, all the remaining Bakai rushed towards Zuo Chi together.
Blue arcs of lightning filled their bodies, and their bodies, which had been distorted by the power of ascension, were actually recovering little by little!
Obviously, the power of the energy obelisk actually repaired the damage caused by the Ascension Divine Power to these Bakai, and also gave them great power.
But their minds seemed to be more confused, and that was exactly what Zelas wanted to see.
After all, Zelas didn't want an independent-minded, beloved Celestial General like Aatrox, he just wanted a group of powerful puppets under his control!
Almost instantly, several powerful auras appeared in front of Zuo Chi, who had fallen with his back against the wall, and the other Bakai blocked every corner that Zuo Chi could hide.
This is almost a certain death, and Zuo Chi has no way to avoid it!
Zuo Chi obviously noticed this as well, so instead of choosing to dodge, he clenched the long knife in his hand, and his entire arm began to light up with a strange red light.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”
A dull heartbeat sounded, and the rune mark at Zuo Chi's heart was getting brighter and brighter, and the raging rune magic was drumming in his body, and it was rapidly converging towards the long knife in his hand.
The ascension that had permeated the long knife had quietly receded, replaced by a scarlet glow like cracks in a spider's web.
At a certain moment, the long knife in Zuo Chi's hand stabbed straight out, straight into the heart of the Ba Kai in front of him.
"Buzz!"
Like a red-hot stick piercing into the snow, the long knife in Zuo Chi's hand almost easily pierced the palm of the Bakai's hand, and stabbed all the way into his chest!
The power of the runes exploded inside the Bhakai's body, and Zuo Chi kicked on him, and as Bhakai's body retreated, he also leaped upwards with the momentum of an eagle, and then landed behind the group of Bhakai.
"Plop!"
His heart was crushed by Zuochi, and the Bhakai fell to his knees, then threw himself forward, completely losing his breath.
Before he completely lost his breath, his eyes flashed for a moment, feeling the rapid passing of vitality in his body, he instinctively wanted to grasp something forward, but found that his compatriots around him were looking at him with dead eyes, no, some of them didn't even look at him.
At this moment, a lot of things flashed through his heart.
He remembered his exuberance as a mortal general of Shurima, he remembered the ecstasy he felt when he passed the Sun Order's review, and then he remembered the sympathetic gazes cast at him by his fellow citizens when he failed to ascend.
In order not to harm Shurima's people, he imprisoned himself in a deep ancient tomb and did not see the light of day all day long, which is a full 3,400 years!
It is said that Zelas and Renekton have been sealed in the emperor's tomb for three thousand years, but who would have thought that they, Bakai, have already voluntarily imprisoned their entire lives.
Not long ago, a guy who called himself Zelas opened the tomb he was in, and promised him that he could help him repair his body and mind destroyed by the Ascension Force, allowing him to return to the continent as a normal person.
With almost no hesitation, he agreed, because he really wanted to leave the dark tomb and return to this continent.
He just failed to ascend, but he didn't do anything heinous, and he also wanted to live like a normal person.
However, he would never have imagined that this self-proclaimed compatriot Zelas was a complete cunning person, and he had already been unable to help himself from the moment he agreed to Zelas's request to enter this cage.
It is true that the power of the energy obelisk really transformed his body, but it also made him completely lose his sense of self and become a puppet at the mercy of Zeros.
Now, being able to die at the hands of an ascendant seems to be a return to the roots.
The light in front of him faded quickly, and the Bakai completely lost his breath.
It's just that the death of this Bakai doesn't seem to have caused the slightest wave in the hearts of other Bakai, or rather, they have long since lost their consciousness.
They rushed towards Zuo Chi again, and even had the experience of the same Bakai just now, and these Bakai began to deliberately contain Zuo Chi's movements, so that the long knife in his hand could not get close.
It's all a battle instinct, not a sense of self.
In this case, Zuo Chi, who was fighting alone, could only retreat step by step, and hideous wounds began to appear on his body one after another.
Holding the long knife in his hand tightly, the muscles of Zuo Chi's whole body were completely tensed, and his gaze once again passed through the Bakai in front of him, looking at the space gate not far away.
Previously, Zuo Chi had tried to approach the gate more than once, but was forced back by the Bakai, and the only time he got close, but his strength failed to break the gate.
Even above this gate, those blue circles still existed, and it seemed that pure magical attacks could not damage them at all.
Suddenly, more than a dozen Bakai in front of Zuo Chi once again shot at Zuo Chi at the same time, Zuo Chi put the long knife in his hand on his chest, the long knife was bent, and his whole person flew out upside down again.
Again, Zuo Chi slammed into a hard object, but this time the impact made Zuo Chi turn his head in confusion.
Compared to the previous impact, this one was much more painful, as there were blue arcs of electricity raging on his body.
Zuo Chi turned his head to look, and he saw the largest cage in the entire space.
The cage was almost twenty meters tall, and was surrounded by a violent blue arc of electricity, and even the energy gushing out of the energy obelisk was several times stronger than the others.
Zuo Chi almost didn't have to think about it, the things in this cage must be even more terrifying than these Bakai in front of him, and it was likely to be Zeroth's heavy blow weapon!
Just, what the hell is in here? Why didn't Zelas release it?
"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”
Suddenly, Zuo Chi, who was feeling puzzled, heard a dull and regular crashing sound in his ears, and the impact sound was becoming more and more rapid.
Zuo Chi frowned, he didn't know if this was his illusion, but he listened quietly, this voice was indeed real.
After a moment of silence, Zuo Chi punched the cage behind him.
A loud roar rang out, and the sound inside the cage suddenly disappeared.
But then, an equally loud roar came from inside the cage.
"Boom!"
Zuo Chi's eyes flashed with ecstasy, and he tried again, only to find that the presence inside the cage was still giving him a response.
At this point, Zuo Chi could already be sure that the existence in the cage must be different from these Bakai in front of him, and the existence in it must still have its own consciousness.
Maybe that's why Zelas didn't release it against himself!
Thinking of this, Zuo Chi's eyes suddenly flashed with an inexplicable dangerous light.
Standing up from the ground quickly, Zuo Chi slashed at the cage in front of him one after another, and for a moment, the power of the ascension and the blue arc spread out like a frightened flock of birds, and the entire space began to resound with a dull roar.
It's just that, almost just before Zuo Chi didn't make a few slashes, the Bakai behind him were already following closely.
Zuo Chi's slash did not cause any substantial damage to the cage, and there were only a few more scars on it, and it was still 108,000 miles away from completely destroying it.
Zuo Chi could no longer continue, he could only continue to turn around and resist Bakai, who came to the front.
Collision after collision, Zuo Chi did not leave the vicinity of the huge cage again, he leaned back against the cage, struggling to fend off the attacks from all directions.
No matter how strong his strength is, it will still seem ineffective to fight a dozen people with one person.
"Poof!"
The sound of oozing flesh and blood pierced sounded, and Zuo Chi's abdomen was directly pierced by a hand knife filled with electric arcs, and a hideous blood hole instantly appeared in his left waist.
Zuo Chi held the arm that pierced his body with one hand, and with the other hand, he gritted his teeth and slashed the long knife in his hand, directly cutting off his arm!
Ignoring the screams of pain from the Bhakai, Zuo Chi threw the severed arm to the ground, his eyes also densely bloodshot.
The sharp pain in his waist and abdomen continued to stimulate Zuo Chi's consciousness, and he reached into his arms and took out the world rune wrapped in a scroll.
Stripping away the wrapping of the scroll, the scarlet lines on Zuo Chi's arm became denser and denser, and he began to frantically channel the magic in the runes into his body.
At Zuo Chi's heart, the red rune lines that were originally the size of a palm seemed to spread out a little more in all directions.
But Zuo Chi didn't have time to pay attention to these at all, in his hand, a runic magic that resonated with the space around him was rapidly taking shape.
The surrounding Bakai rushed towards Zuochi again, but they were all forced back by the surging rune magic.
Seeing this, these Bakai stood at the same time, and instead of choosing to approach Zuo Chi with physical strength, they began to gather the arcane energy in their bodies into the palms of their hands.
Zuo Chi slowly raised his right arm, the blood vessels on his arm were constantly agitating red light, and in a moment, the rune magic was completely condensed, and the dozen or so Ba Kai in front of him also vented the long-accumulated arcane energy towards him.
More than a dozen pillars of blue light came to Zuo Chi in an instant, but what everyone didn't expect was that Zuo Chi didn't choose to collide with the power of these Bakai with the rune magic in his hand, but directly aimed the rune magic at the space gate behind these Bakai!
Even as if he had expected it a long time ago, while Zuo Chi was unleashing the rune magic, he held the world rune and swept sideways to the side.
Behind him was the largest cage!
In the next moment, Zuo Chi's rune magic slammed into the gate, and the entire gate was shaking violently, although the blue magic circle above was frantically absorbing the power of the runes, but it was obvious that this power was far beyond the scope of the magic circle that could absorb.
On the other side, the power of many Bakai also clinged to Zuo Chi's body and hit the cage behind him.
"Boom!"
Although he had not been able to bear this force head-on, Zuo Chi was still affected, and he was already seriously injured and was blasted out like a kite with a broken string, rolling far on the ground before barely stopping.
In addition to Zuo Chi, the rune magic that raged on the space gate slowly dissipated, and although the gate that was several meters thick was not completely destroyed, the magic circle on it was all dispersed, and countless dense cracks appeared on it.
Due to the vigorous exercise just now, a large amount of blood gushed out from Zuo Chi's waist and abdomen, and the blood completely soaked his clothes, and he gasped for breath, even the Sun Holy Emblem on his chest was soaked in his blood.
Without using runic magic to fend off the attacks of the Bakais, his body was once again severely damaged.
"Step, step, step~!"
Zuo Chi heard footsteps coming from ahead, and he knew that it was those Bakai who were approaching him.
But in addition to this, Zuo Chi also heard another voice, the voice he had been waiting for for a long time!
"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”
It was the sound of the crash, and the sound of the crash coming from inside the cage was getting louder and louder, accompanied by a cracking sound.
Several tall shadows enveloped Zuo Chi's body, and those Bakai had already come in front of him, and raised their arms full of arcane energy.
A blue arc of lightning jumped, and Bakai's arm stabbed straight into Zuochi's head.
Zuo Chi's arm slammed on the ground, and he clenched the world rune in his hand, ready to unleash the rune magic again.
However, just as Zuo Chi was about to collide with Ba Kai in front of him again, a violent roar suddenly sounded in the entire underground space.
The dust and smoke in the sky instantly flooded the place where Zuo Chi and Ba Kai were, and immediately after, everyone noticed the trembling ground and the piercing sound of friction.
In Zuo Chi's puzzled gaze, a huge spiked roller about fifteen meters high smashed through the dust and smoke and came straight towards them!
In front of this meat grinder-like roller, all Bakai stepped back without hesitation, but a very obvious look of surprise appeared in Zuo Chi's eyes.
The person in front of him, Zuo Chi is simply too familiar.
Armored Dragon Turtle - Ramos!
Zuochi would never have imagined that Zelas would be able to capture this legendary creature and imprison him in this cage.
Obviously, Ramos is different from these Baquet in that his captivity is by no means voluntary, and his will is countless times stronger than that of many Baquet.
Under the confused gaze of many Ba Kai, they watched as the huge dragon turtle in front of them, which had the same aura as them, stopped in front of Zuo Chi, and leaned down to hold Zuo Chi's body in his hands.
After that, Ramos's body curled up again, turning into a blue arc-filled meat grinder and rushing towards the space gate.
"Boom!"
The gate, which had been destroyed by Zuo Chi's rune magic, couldn't hold on to it at all and shattered.
Ramos, on the other hand, completely disappeared in front of the group of Bakai with Zuo Chi.
“.”
At this moment, the entire underground space was eerily quiet.
After a long silence, the Bakai returned to their respective cages like walking corpses, and as the cages closed again, the space returned to dead silence once again.
——
Compared to the battle in the left pool in the treasure trove on the ground, the battle above the ground is much bloodier.
Nasus and Zelas, who had fully activated their ascension form, collided wildly, and the battle between the two razed all the surrounding buildings to the ground, and even the desolate walker was completely lost in the battle.
At first, Nasus was able to draw with Zelas head-on, but as time went on, Nasus's disadvantages began to become more and more apparent.
Nasus's strength was already inferior to Zelas's, and with Zelas' back to the Energy Obelisk and an almost infinite supply of energy, his form was already extremely critical.
"Bang!"
Again, Nasus's mountain-like body slammed into the buildings behind him, and Zelas's attack rained down on him like a storm.
Although blood continued to gush from Nasus's mouth, he was still desperately resisting.
"Nasus, pointless struggle! Do you really think Renekton will make it out of my treasure trove alive? ”
Looking at Nasus on the ground, who was almost exhausted, Zelas's sarcastic voice rang out.
"If I were you, I would leave Renekton and run for my life as soon as possible, after all, it's better to die alone than two people together, don't you think?"
"To tell you the truth, the Sun Emblem was placed on my face, and Renekton could easily find it. But what about after that? There is no way he will leave alive! ”
Listening to Zeroth's sarcasm, Nasus's heart was also extremely heavy.
How could he not know that Zelas had long expected their return and had laid a trap around the Sun Emblem, and Zuo Chi had been in danger after going in for so long and not coming out.
It's just that if Nasus left Zuochi and left by himself, he would never do this even if he died!
"Poof!"
Spurting out a mouthful of blood again, Nasus once again gathered what little power he had left to ascend.
He slowly got up, the scepter of war in both hands, and looked fiercely at Zelas in front of him:
"Zeros, despicable and lowly slave, your inferior nature will never change, you will only be a loser after all! It won't be long before the Ascension Legion will be crushing you to death as they did thousands of years ago! ”
"Hahahaha! Nasus, your jokes are still so boring. ”
"You let them come, let Aatrox come with the Ascended Legion, I'll wait here!"
Listening to Nasus's roar, Zelas's tone was full of playfulness.
No one would believe Nasus's words, because as far as today's Shurima Empire is concerned, it can't even withstand any turmoil at all, let alone create a Flying Ascension God, not to mention that as far as he knows, the former Ascension Generals have long been reduced to the Dark Descendants, and it is impossible to take action for the Shurima Empire anymore.
Nasus didn't say anything more, he just stared at Zelas in front of him.
Evil dark magic gathered in Zeroth's hands: "Nasus, I still won't kill you, but I'll turn you into a madman like Renekton and let you deal with your beloved Azir yourself!" Hahaha! ”
The words fell, as if he didn't want to say anything more to Nasus, and the arcane energy in Zeroth's hand rushed straight towards Nasus.
Nasus looked at the blue lightning that was rapidly approaching in front of him, and he also gathered the power to take off and sprint, heading straight ahead.
In any case, he will have to buy plenty of time for Zuo Chi.
It's just that Nasus's power is finally on the verge of exhaustion, and even the scepter of war he wields is no longer as sharp as before.
"Click!"
The blue lightning slashed wildly at Nasus's body, and his body was directly pulled by the blue arc in Zelas's hand, and even his feet left the ground.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, just as Zelas was about to gather arcane energy to stun Nasus completely, a roar suddenly came to his ears.
Immediately after, a spiked roller more than ten meters high rushed out of the deep tunnel next to the altar and slammed straight towards him.
Caught off guard, Zelas's entire body was run over by Ramos, and he fell directly from the sky and hit the ground hard.
"It can't be!"
There was a hint of disbelief in Zelas's tone.
However, Ramos did not stop, he rolled to Nasus's side, held him in his arms, and rushed in the direction of the gate of Nerima with an unstoppable momentum.
Zelas bounced off the ground in an instant, and he didn't pay any attention to Ramos leaving, instead turning his head and rushing towards the underground treasure house.
The dozen or so Bakai in that space are all his hard work, and they are his absolute backbone, and he must not allow these Bakai to have accidents.
In the underground space, looking at the shattered gate in front of him, and the completely lifeless Bakai in front of him, the power around Zelas completely exploded.
He couldn't believe that all this was true, when did Renekton have such great strength!?
Not only can he be safe from a dozen Bakai, but he can also break the cage and rescue Ramos!
Fortunately, except for the one and Ramos, who escaped, there were no major accidents in the other Baquet, which is a blessing in misfortune.
Looking at the empty stone platform, Zelas turned and flew out of the vault.
A short time later, a figure composed entirely of arcane energy appeared in front of Zelas.
Zelas's voice rang out, "Tell me where that cursed mummy is!" ”
The arcane energy body in front of him gradually receded, and Zelas sat on the throne and turned his head to look at the eastern sky.
The huge energy obelisk in the sky was still spinning, gathering a huge amount of energy for Zelas at every moment, and it was also at this moment that Zelas's voice resounded throughout the palace.
"Azir, what if you get the Sun Emblem, I won't give you time to create an Ascendant!"
"Originally, you could have survived for a while, but now, I don't want to wait!"
