Chapter 232 Climbing, the hiding place of the Bright Moon Sect!
[The host can choose to help Atrius realize his dream, and after the dream is successful, the host can choose one of the abilities or characteristics of Atrius and the War Titan.] 】
Looking at the blue light curtain that appeared in front of him, Zuo Chi's expression was a little complicated.
For the first time, Zuo Chi wanted to directly reject the task request in front of him.
There is no doubt that Atrius climbed the Titan Peak with only one purpose:
That is to find those star spirits who are high above, and ask them to stop interfering in the faith dispute of the people of the giant god peak, and let the scorching sun star spirits intervene in the domineering behavior of the scorching sun sect.
It's just that this matter is not easy to say.
As Atrius said, the astral spirits are used to being high, so how can they care about the lives and deaths of ordinary people.
At that time, in order to reach a consensus, there will inevitably be conflicts.
There were five Star Spirits that Zuo Chi knew alone, and that didn't include those unknown celestial creatures.
Once involved in this matter, it means that he can no longer get out of the whole body, and his connection with Thor will inevitably be exposed.
This is completely contrary to what I expected to leave directly after getting the key.
The last time he was in Demacia, if Kyle hadn't been a step late and hadn't witnessed the battle between Zuochi and Federtic, he might have been exposed.
And now.
"Atres, we can't reach the top with you, if you want to achieve your goals, you may have to work on your own."
In the end, Zuo Chi decided to talk to Atris directly.
Hearing Zuo Chi's words, Atrius did not hesitate, he nodded as a matter of course:
"That's what I think in my heart, and of course I have to do my own thing."
Just now, Atrius stood in the somewhat dilapidated wooden house, his eyes wandering over the four weapons hanging from the walls.
He decided to fight again.
This time, no one will be involved, and no one will be made to pay for what he has done.
He only believed in his heart.
He has spent his whole life looking up at the starry sky, but he has never thought about the world under the starry sky.
Mortals are different from the gods, mortals fight because they have no choice, death is always waiting, and the pressure from the superior will lead them to the abyss of sin.
And what Atrius has to do is to fight for mortals in the body of mortals.
Even if he no longer has the power of the star spirit, he still wants to fight.
When she learns that Atrius is going to climb the Titan Peak with Zuochi, Iula has mixed emotions.
Atrius and her husband are close friends, and she naturally wants Atrius to cheer up.
But at the same time, she also deeply understands the danger of climbing the Giant God Peak.
Now that Atrius no longer has the power of the astral spirit, he is almost indistinguishable from mortals, and under this premise, what he has to pay in order to reach the top will undoubtedly be all he has.
Looking at Atrius, who had already picked up the golden spear again in front of him, Iula nodded heavily at him.
"Atarice, Pyras and I will be waiting here for you to come back."
In this way, Zuochi, Soraka, and Pansen set off.
Although the Giant God Peak is only a mountain, it covers an extremely large area, and the mountain is extremely strong, almost comparable to a small landmass.
Located on the westernmost side of the Shurima Continent, further west of the Giant God Peak is the vast and mysterious Sea of Conquerors.
In order to avoid the eyes of the Sun Sect, Zuo Chi and the three of them prepared to start climbing from the west side of the Giant God Peak, Zuo Chi and Soraka would stop at a suitable height, and the rest of the distance would need to be walked by Pan Sen himself.
When they traveled from the farm to the west side of the Giant God Peak, Zuo Chi and the three of them encountered many patrols of the Burning Sun Sect, and also saw many sun symbols symbolizing the beliefs of the Burning Sun Sect.
There is no doubt that the current Burning Sun Sect has almost ruled the entire Giant God Peak, taking the faith of all believers into its own body.
As for the Kyaukyue Sect, which was once as famous as the Burning Sun Sect, it had long since disappeared in the exclusion and suppression of the Burning Sun Sect.
At this time, if someone from the Bright Moon Sect appeared in the sight of the Burning Sun Sect, they might be directly killed mercilessly.
After about two hours, the three of them finally reached the westernmost side of the Giant God Peak, and as far as the eye could see, the vast sea of conquerors shrouded in a layer of fog was in front of them.
Starting at the foot of the mountain, the three of Zuochi began their journey to climb the highest peak of the Runeterrae along a path that they didn't know how far they would go.
The climate of the area at the foot of the mountain is not much different from other places, and most of the forces of the Giant God Peak are also distributed at the foot of the mountain and beneath the mountain.
The speed of the three of them was very fast, and they had climbed nearly a thousand meters in the blink of an eye.
And here, the three of them can already clearly feel the change in climate.
The gray-white rocky ground was gradually covered with snow, and the path that had been trodden by the previous people had come to an end.
As we continue upwards, the snow is starting to get thicker, the temperature is rapidly decreasing, and snowflakes are starting to fall in the sky.
"Jingle bell~!"
Suddenly, a crisp bell sound attracted the attention of the three of Zuo Chi, and they looked together in the direction where the sound came from.
There, Zuo Chi saw several elves with snow-white bodies and a purple gem at the center of their eyebrows.
These little elves, with their colorful wings and covered bodies in fluff, are bouncing on the white snow.
"It turns out that there is also life on the Giant God Peak? I thought this was a forbidden area for life. ”
Looking at the elf in front of him, Zuo Chi said with some surprise.
Soraka smiled lightly: "The Giant God Peak is shrouded in majestic power all the time, and in this case, of course, many life forms will be born. ”
"Let's keep going, the road is going to get harder and harder."
The three of them continued on their way, and the whole time, Atridus did not speak, but he would often raise his head to look up at the top of the Giant God Peak, and his eyes were full of strong battle intent.
The snow was slowly thickening and the temperature was dropping, and Zuo Chi raised his hand to add a faint layer of life energy to Atris's body.
Atrius looked at Zuo Chi in surprise, but Zuo Chi just smiled at him.
"If I can help you, I will help you, if I can't help me, I will leave directly."
Atrius didn't refuse Zuochi's kindness and nodded lightly at him.
Soon they reached the end of the snow area, and by this time, heavy snow had begun to fall in the sky ahead, and the cold wind swept through the bodies of the three of them like sharp knives.
If ordinary people were to get here, their movement would be greatly hindered, and even the vast majority of climbers would be lost in this area.
Looking up, the three of them still couldn't even see the peak of the Giant God Peak, which meant that they were still a long, long way from reaching the top.
As if thinking of something, Zuo Chi asked curiously: "Continue to go up, is it still this climate?" ”
Soraka shook her head slightly, "Not really. You only need to pass through these few kilometers of blizzard area to reach the clouds, where there is no more snowfall. ”
"You're going to get to the top?" Zuo Chi asked again.
"It's not that easy."
Soraka said with a smile, "There is also a gem area of thousands of meters above the Blizzard Zone, which is full of extremely sharp gem spikes, and it will be extremely difficult to climb up that area. ”
"When you actually pass through the gem area, you can reach the last node on the road to the top."
Zuo Chi listened with interest, there was no doubt that these things were very important.
Soraka continued, "Once you've passed through the Gem District, you'll meet the gatekeeper of the Titan's Peak, the Pinnacle Arbiter. ”
"He is an emissary from the Heavenly Realm, and he has the strength of a high-level demigod."
Zuo Chi's heart jumped, just as he expected, there were indeed creatures from outside the sky on the Giant God Peak.
"Not everyone who reaches the summit will be blessed by the star spirit."
Looking at Zuo Chi's curious baby look, Soraka continued:
"The apex arbiter will judge whether the climber is in tune with the power of the astral spirit, and if the astral spirit is willing to lower his power, then the climber will become the human body of the astral spirit. If there is no power to match, the Summit Arbiter will symbolically grant the climber some power, which is also strong, but far from being comparable to the power of the astral spirit. ”
Hearing this, Zuo Chi also had a general understanding of climbing the Giant God Peak.
Zuo Chi had always thought that as long as he reached the top, he could get the blessing of the star spirit, but after making trouble for a long time, it didn't fit this statement!
Without further hesitation, the three of them immediately prepared to continue their upward climb.
At this time, the three of them were at the end of the snow area, the beginning of the blizzard area, and they were on the back of the giant god peak, which was the very edge of the life form's life, although the environment was harsh, but there was no snowfall.
However, just as Zuo Chi had just taken a step, he suddenly felt a very strong magic fluctuation coming from under his feet.
As if some kind of premonition device had been triggered, an invisible silver light spread.
"Huh?"
Sensing the strangeness under his feet, Zuo Chi frowned a little puzzled.
Perceiving Zuochi's performance, Soraka asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”
Zuo Chi leaned down to feel the fading magic fluctuations, and he asked suspiciously, "Is there anyone living here?" ”
"How is that possible?"
Soraka shook his head: "This kind of environment is like a place where ordinary people can live. ”
Zuo Chi didn't speak for the first time, but carefully felt the strange power attached to his fingertips.
After a few breaths, Zuo Chi turned his head to look at his left.
There, a tall waterfall of snow hangs down from the cliff, completely obscuring everything behind.
Zuo Chi walked in that direction, and although Soraka and Pan Sen behind him were a little confused, they still kept up with Zuo Chi's footsteps.
Before coming to the heavy snow waterfall, Zuo Chi could clearly sense the magic fluctuations coming from in front of him.
Slowly raising his hand, in the suspicious gazes of the two people behind him, Zuo Chi's hand passed directly through the snow waterfall, as if a magic barrier had been cut.
Almost at the same time, a dazzling blue curtain of light appeared in front of Zuo Chi.
[Ask the host to help Ephelius realize his dream, after the dream is successful, the host can choose one of the abilities and characteristics of Ephelius and La Lune.] 】
“!!”
Before Zuo Chi could react, a bright moonlight shot out directly from the front, heading straight for Zuo Chi's left shoulder.
It's an arrow wrapped in moonlight!
It was accompanied by a shout: "Stranger, get out of here!" ”
In the next moment, the arrow hit Zuo Chi's shoulder, but instead of piercing Zuo Chi's body, it broke directly as if it was hitting hard steel.
At this moment, not only Soraka and Atreus behind Zuo Chi, but even the person behind the moonlight barrier was stunned.
It was also at this time that Zuo Chi said with some surprise:
"I'll just say that the Giant God Peak is only so big, where can the people of the Bright Moon Sect go to live, it turns out that it is here."
Hearing Zuo Chi's words, the man's expression changed drastically, and without the slightest hesitation, he directly sent an early warning to the sect.
He had no idea that anyone would be able to come here, this was the highest area that a living person on the Giant God Peak could reach, and it was still on the most remote west side.
And what made him even more alert was that Zuo Chi actually revealed their identities as soon as he opened his mouth!
Zuo Chi didn't pay attention to his series of actions, but raised his hand and gently waved away the moonlight barrier in front of him, revealing the scene behind the barrier.
It is like a small world independent of the Giant God Peak, although it is built on the mountain of the Giant God Peak, it covers a large area, and the facilities in it are all available, and even the warm sunlight outside is replaced by the cold white moonlight inside.
Soraka looked at the scene in front of her, and she gently pulled the corner of Zuo Chi's clothes: "Zuo Chi."
Zuo Chi patted Soraka's hand and whispered inexplicably, "Feeling a little surprised, Soraka?" Or does it feel expected? You knew they were here beforehand, right? ”
Soraka lowered his head, a little afraid to look at Zuo Chi.
Zuo Chi smiled helplessly: "Actually, you can tell me directly." ”
"No"
Soraka became at a loss, and she clutched the corner of Zuo Chi's clothes tightly:
"I didn't mean to hide it from you, I just thought it would be best if you could find them, and if you can't, forget it; And climbing the Titan Peak from here is really the safest way, I don't mean to take advantage of you at all."
Before Zuo Chi could say anything more, there was a sudden sound of dense footsteps ahead.
The three of them turned their heads to look, and they saw a group of warriors dressed in gray and white robes, armed with weapons, and a wary expression.
"Intruder, tell me your purpose." The old man at the head took the lead in speaking.
However, when his gaze fell on Atrius behind Zuo Chi, he was still slightly stunned.
"Lord War Starling?"
The tense atmosphere suddenly eased a lot because of the presence of Atrius.
Hearing the old man's words, Atrice's expression was slightly gloomy, but he still said:
"I'm no longer a war star, I'm just a mortal."
Although he could not understand what Atridus meant, the old man said:
"Can you tell me the purpose of the next three entering my sect?"
Due to the precarious situation of the Bright Moon Cult right now, the old man must ensure that they are not discovered by the Sun Cult.
This is at stake in the final survival of the Bright Moon Sect, and he must be cautious.
At this time, Zuo Chi spoke: "We wanted to climb the Giant God Peak, and when we passed by here halfway, we happened to find the magic fluctuations on your enchantment, so we accidentally discovered this place. ”
Hearing Zuo Chi's explanation, the old man's eyes twitched a few times, as if he couldn't believe that his sect's enchantment would be easily discovered.
However, hearing that several people were preparing to climb the Giant God Peak, coupled with the identity of the War Star Spirit of Atreus, the old man could still be sure that they had nothing to do with the Sun Sect.
Seeing this, the old man bowed his head slightly, and said very enthusiastically:
"Lu Tan, the current high priest of the Lower Bright Moon Sect, if the three of you don't mind, you can come to the sect to rest for a while."
"Oh?"
Zuo Chi looked at the old man in front of him with some surprise, although he was old, but he was very energetic.
Combined with the old man's attitude, recalling the attitude of the people of the Sun Sect towards Atrius before, Zuo Chi couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.
Looking at Soraka and Atrius behind him, seeing that neither of them had any objections, Zuo Chi smiled and nodded.
"Then it will be troublesome to the High Priest of Lutan."
In this way, Zuo Chi and the others followed Lu Tan and his party into the territory of the Kyaukyue Sect.
Although it is in the mountains, the sparrows are small and have all kinds of organs, and the roads here extend in all directions, and all kinds of buildings are also available.
Along the way, Zuo Chi could see that the number of believers in the Kyaukyue Sect was now very small, only less than a hundred, which was simply one heaven and one underground compared to the Burning Sun Sect in the outside world.
The temple of the Cult of the Bright Moon enshrines a crescent moon, and the light of the crescent moon shines on the faces of everyone below.
The believers were all looking at Zuo Chi's three outsiders with curious eyes, which was a bit unusual for them.
Zuo Chi was also looking at the Bright Moon Sect in front of him, and he saw that these believers were busy inside and out, as if they were preparing for the upcoming grand ceremony.
Zuo Chi looked at the crescent moon in the temple, he was a little puzzled, why wasn't this place dedicated to the Bright Moon Star Spirit?
As if he could see the doubts in Zuo Chi's heart at a glance, Soraka explained softly, "Diana has been away for many years and has never been back here. ”
Hearing Soraka's words behind her, Lutan, who was walking in front, looked at her with some surprise.
"Do you know Lord Bright Moon Star Spirit?"
Soraka nodded, "I have witnessed the whole process of her and Leona being blessed. ”
Lu Tan suddenly became extremely excited: "Then do you know when Lord Bright Moon Star Spirit will return?" ”
His voice became a little choked: "We have been living in this kind of place, just to wait for her to come back again. ”
Soraka's expression became very complicated, and he didn't know how to speak for a while.
The person in front of him had not even seen what Diana looked like, because at that time, Diana had a fierce conflict with Leona after becoming a god, and then Diana disappeared completely after killing all the high-ranking members of the Sun Cult.
No one knew where she had gone, and she had never come back to see the Bright Moon Sect.
After all, before that, Leona and Diana had always been disciples of the Sun Sect!
No one knew how excited the followers of the Kyaukyue Sect were hiding in the shadows when the Bright Moon Star Spirit came into the world.
They even thought that the Bright Moon Star Spirit would soon descend on the Bright Moon Sect and lead the declining Bright Moon Sect back to its peak again.
However, they had waited for a long, long time, and even now, many years later, they still hadn't seen the Bright Moon Star Spirit they had been waiting for for a long time.
They hadn't even seen the Bright Moon Star Spirit, but they were still willing to live in the shadows for it, quietly waiting for the day when she returned.
After a long silence, Soraka whispered:
"It should be soon."
"That's good! That's good! That's good! ”
Lutan kept repeating the words, and his body trembled violently with excitement.
"We've been waiting for that day to come, and even if I'm dead, my children are still willing to wait."
As they spoke, Zuo Chi and the three of them had followed Lu Tan to an empty and flat stone room, where there were also several stone tables.
"The three adults will take a rest here first, and I will have someone bring some special delicacies of the Bright Moon Sect to the three adults later."
Lutan said, bowed slightly, and walked outside.
Behind, Zuo Chi looked at Lu Tan's back and couldn't help but sigh lightly:
"Hold on for decades for someone who has never existed, is this what is called faith?"
Almost at the same time that Zuo Chi and the three of them had just entered the Kyaukyue Sect, a figure dressed in a blue and cyan tight-fitting robe was rushing towards the top from the foot of the Giant God Peak.
Behind him, nearly a hundred figures with weapons in hand gave hot pursuit, and constantly unleashed various powerful spells to try to intercept his movements.
His figure was flickering, his breath getting a little heavier, and the moonlight shining in his hands.
Just as those men were almost infinitely close behind him, a strange-looking weapon appeared in his hand.
It was a white weapon that resembled the barrel of a cannon, and at this time, the muzzle of this weapon was already lit up with majestic energy fluctuations.
In the next moment, an ethereal and cold voice sounded in his ears.
"Brother, Yingyan!"
He folded his hands, and a crescent moon swept out of front of him, heading straight for the Sun Cult.
"Clear Radiance Night Condensation!"
