With the help of divination magic, Ji Xing easily found Sivir, but Nasus, who also came for Sivir, found the wrong place.
In the temple of Vicora, Nasus, whose body became even larger, held the cleric who claimed to be a descendant of Azir with one hand, and pressed his face, which was bleeding from the sand, onto the fake sun disk.
Compared with the real sun disk and the artifact of ascension, this fake was just an inferior product made of copper and iron. It was hung unsightly in the air by a few rough hemp ropes. Nasus felt shame and full of anger at a glance.
.
This was also the emotion he felt the most besides being sad along the way. He could not see the awe of the Shuriman people for the lost dynasty. Some were just poor imitations. These people stubbornly believed that the future of Shuriman was in the past.
Amidst the glory, he has no idea what the real Shurima is.
But the good thing is, at least it can reflect sunlight.
Amidst the screams and cries of the cleric, his blood was burned brown by the fake, and the smell of blood floated into Nasus's nose.
He was sure that this was not the blood of ascension, and threw the priest aside sadly.
The jade pendant hanging around his neck rippled. Thin golden threads ran on its sea-green surface. A ray of light shone out from it, rising and falling slowly, like a human pulse, guiding the person.
He gave a vague direction.
"Over there?"
His eyes looked toward the east of the town, and his attention was suddenly attracted by the flash of blue light on the surface of the disk. Under the miracle of the sun, the distant scene was revealed on it.
A war group of at least 500 people from multiple ethnic groups is coming towards Vicora. They are armed with a variety of weapons and have different styles. They were originally hostile to each other, but now they are under the influence of dark magic.
Tangled into a rope.
"Xerath." Nasus whispered.
He is indeed here to destroy the last bloodline successor of Shurima. I must find her first and protect her before he does!
…
"So you are Sevier."
Sivir leaned against the tree trunk, rubbing the golden ticket in his hand fondly, "The little inventor of Piltover. Although I don't know what is going on now, at least three months ago, the universal capsule was still a thing in Shurima."
Rare items, I managed to get two of them.
If I had known it was you, I would have offered a higher price. This golden ticket may not be an astronomical figure in Piltover, but in Shurima, it is enough for me to start a war group from scratch.
I'm very excited, but as I said just now, I don't want to be put in a cage like a pig waiting for you to draw blood for research."
Saying this, she put the 10,000 gold coin ticket into her blood-stained lapel, placed it close to her body, and said with a grin: "Is there anything else I can do for you?"
Ji Xing shook his head and said: "Now that it's been like this, don't forget about greed for money. What if I don't have anything else to do?"
"Money can heal all wounds." Sivir waved his arms and said, seeming to have scratched the wound, and hissed: "You rich people won't take back the money you paid, right?"
"Be careful, the newly scabbed wound is about to burst again." At this time, Taliyah noticed that there was a fresh blush on the new bandage on Sivir's chest, and she quickly reminded her.
"Hey, I can't die yet." Sivir said with a smile: "I feel that my body is full of strength now. When I convert the golden ticket into money, I can give you half of it to thank you for saving my life. So... you
Do you want to join my battle group?"
Just as Taliyah was about to refuse, she suddenly let out a light sigh. Sivir also felt a strange itching coming from the wound on her chest. She hummed slightly at the tip of her nose. She frowned and lowered her head, and saw a blue light shrouding her.
on her.
"What the hell?" She subconsciously looked at Ji Xing, and sure enough she found the source of the blue color. She saw Ji Xing's outstretched finger hooking up, and the new blood that had just dyed the bandage red was reunited into five or six drops, and fell into the sun.
A strange light shone under the light, flying above Ji Xing's finger.
"Don't waste it, collect a few drops first and see."
Ji Xing's other hand covered him, and it was as if a centrifuge was constructed with magic power between his hands, causing the blood to spin at high speed.
"Is this... witchcraft?" Sivir looked stunned. After hearing the name 'Sevier', she assumed that the other party was going to use technology to study her blood. The result was like this?
"Hey, I thought your confidence in crossing the desert was the little girl next to you who looked amazing, but you are actually a wizard?"
Qiyana, who was watching Ji Xing's use of magic attentively, raised her head in displeasure: "A money-grubbing woman like you is actually a descendant of the Eagle King. Was the Shurima Empire once ruled by such a bloodline? No wonder it is in such ruins as it is now."
"If I had a choice, I really wouldn't want it." Sivir said nonchalantly.
Snap——
With a tiny crackling sound, the rapidly rotating Sivir's blood exploded like foam, and a breeze blew Qiyana's long hair.
Qiyana, who still wanted to quarrel, immediately lowered her head and asked curiously: "How about it, is there really any magical power in the Ascension Blood?"
Ixtal has also stepped out of the Ascended Ones. According to ancient rumors, Queen Setaka, the first Ascended One, was an Ixtar. This gave Qiyana some 'empress support', so she did not attack Sivir.
Say something too strong.
Sivir also looked sideways. She had shed so much blood in the desert over the years. The same taste and color made her never feel any different until Azir was resurrected.
Does my blood really have the power of an Ascended One?
Ji Xing didn't answer, frowning and thinking.
Why does it look a bit like Otsutsuki?
The first thing that can be determined is that the race of the ascended ones has not changed, but the bloodline has indeed changed. If Setaka is compared to Kaguya, then Sivir is the Uchiha Sasuke who has been passed down for countless generations? There is a higher level of power in the bloodline waiting to be awakened.
.
Of course, Setaka's personal power is far from comparable to Kaguya, but the being who turned her into an ascended one must be of a higher personality!
Bloodline of the sun? No, what is the sun? For a truly strong person, the energy contained in a star is no longer enough!
"Star Casting Dragon King?" Ji Xingxin murmured: "Did the ascended ones get its gift? No wonder I got nothing when I tried to divination Nasus. I thought his power exceeded my ability. Even divination
Sivir is a little reluctant, it turns out that their fate is connected with the guy I can't afford to offend now."
That's really... awesome!
He looked at Sivir and smiled: "Now you still owe me 9994 drops of blood."
"Ahem..." Sivir coughed repeatedly, almost bleeding, and paid off all the debts at once.
At this moment, the city wall collapsed first.
It was a muffled explosion coming from the west, followed closely by the roar of rolling rocks.
Taliyah, the rock sparrow who possesses rock magic, would never hear it wrong. She looked over there in surprise, not knowing what was going on.
Ji Xing turned his gaze to the sky, then turned to the direction of the market he had passed earlier.
‘I knew something big would happen in the place where heroes gather, but so soon? It’s better to come sooner than to come sooner.’ He looked slightly solemn. Although he had never seen it before, he could recognize it at a glance.
Because he liked this move very much when playing games, it was full of psychological game fun, watching the opponent with half-health twisting around and unable to escape...
The ancient witch spirit Xerath is turned on!
…
The sky was pouring down flames.
The comet with blue and white flames flew out from the outstretched arms of Xerath, drawing a long arc, like a huge boulder thrown by a trebuchet. The first one fell into the place where Ji Xing and the others had just walked.
The market exploded like a meteor falling to the ground, bursting out with fierce flames. The flaming corpses were thrown into the air, like charred firewood!
Whether he is a merchant running for a living or a greedy and despicable profiteer, he no longer needs to think about his future. All that comes with him is Xerath's vicious smile.
No matter what kind of person he was in the past or what caused Azir's death, Xerath is now just a witch spirit and a dark creature who was cursed for usurping the blood of Ascension!
Why didn't I see his evil intentions before? Nasus, who was rushing towards Sivir, stopped and looked at the sky in the distance, seeing more fireballs crashing down like thunder and lightning.
People on the ground could only look at this sudden disaster, scream in despair, and flee helplessly.
I can't save everyone. The blood of the Eagle King is more important than ordinary Shurima people.
Nasus turned his head sadly and walked quickly towards the abandoned houses to the east. A sudden strong wind blew off the robe covering his head.
This is……?
The sudden rise of the hurricane did not worsen the situation in Weikaola, which was already in disaster. Instead, it turned into a transparent barrier, protecting the city.
The falling flaming comets collided with this barrier one after another, canceling each other out and destroying each other. The war beasts of the war group at the west city wall who were preparing to drive straight in to start the massacre were also forced to stop in place!
The originally desperate Shuriman people stopped in astonishment and looked up blankly. Seeing the brilliant light and shadow intertwined by the comet and the wind, they all opened their mouths in confusion.
"Yes, is it the Eagle King?"
"It must be! The great Shurima Emperor saved us! We are saved!"
"Long live the Shurima Empire!"
First they were whispering quietly, and then they quickly connected into a piece, and people were shouting enthusiastically. This power seemed to be able to dispel all the dust and haze.
Occasionally, two sober and wise old men said that this power belonged to the wind, not the yellow sand, but they were also drowned out by the crowd's voices.
Seeing this united effort, Nasus didn't feel proud, but rather a little ashamed. He naturally knew that this power did not belong to Azir.
"The resurrected Azir actually attracted such a guy?"
He had heard similar things during his long self-exile. It should have been three hundred years ago that Piltover's alchemical bomb caused a devastating tsunami. It was the legendary god, Janna, the incarnation of the wind element, who used wind to
The power of it blocked the anger of the sea and blocked the tsunami.
The wind in front of me has similar power.
Demigod? No, more like a human wizard, a wizard almost equivalent to an ascended one?
He took a deep breath and continued walking in the original direction, hoping in his heart that this powerful wizard would be a friend rather than an enemy.
Three thousand years ago, he sacrificed his brother Renekton to seal Xerath, and he suffered too much in these three thousand years.
On his own, he has no confidence to stop Xerath, whose power continues to grow in the seal. It would be best if he could have a helper!
At the same time, Xerath, who was suspended outside Vicola, stopped laughing wildly and lowered his arms.
Dark energy crackled on his spiritual body, and the pig iron chains wrapped around his body and the ancient sarcophagus fragments made a buzzing sound, and he whispered a sentence: "Someone is looking forward to death."
…
What kind of swordsman is my master?
Such questions filled Taliyah's mind at this time. She looked at Ji Xing holding the staff in front of her with wide eyes, and kept comparing the master who had cut out a small wind wall with the barrier in the sky.
The more I compare, the more I feel that Master is too inferior.
Sivir, who was standing at the gate of the courtyard with her support, felt that his eyes were darkening, and he felt that he might not be able to escape the 9994 drops of 'blood debt'.
It was also the first time for Qiyana to see Ji Xing "casting spells with all his strength". Although she had caught a glimpse of it from sporadic contacts, she was still severely shocked at this time.
No wonder he dares to call himself the number one mage. Not only is he knowledgeable, but his spellcasting ability is also like that of gods and myths. He is worthy of being the future magic advisor of my Queen of Elements... But the comet that suddenly fell down also seems to contain terrifying energy.
"Didn't you just say, 'What does that have to do with you'? Why are you now taking the initiative to save some unrelated people and provoke a guy who is obviously very troublesome?" Worry came to his lips, and was automatically filtered by Qiyana.
rhetorical question.
"There's a difference between rescuing someone and rescuing someone else." Ji Xing responded casually, looking at the dog head walking in front of him.
Together? Nasus' pace changed slightly, but his extremely oppressive figure kept coming closer.
Of course, this also attracted the attention of the three women, and his unique appearance was very recognizable, and legends about him have never stopped in the desert.
There were some clear pictures and portraits of Isu Oken, and Qiyana blurted out: "Grand Bachelor?"
"I'm glad to be recognized at a glance." Nasus glanced at her, a little surprised: "That unique fabric...does Isuoken really still exist in that dangerous jungle?"
He turned to Ji Xing and said: "I am Nasus, the ruler of the desert. A powerful wizard from afar, thank you for saving the people of Shurima. It may be inappropriate, but I still want to go first.
Just to confirm, does your appearance next to the descendant of the Eagle King have some purpose?"
Ji Xing felt Nasus' fiery physique and vitality, and said, "I want to buy some of her blood for research, but now she still owes me 9994 drops of blood."
Nasus was startled and said, "Do you need the blood of ascension? I can repay it for her."
"Are you the first-generation ascended person? How far are you from Queen Setaka?" Ji Xing said: "Your blood will probably be different, otherwise there won't be only one legendary bloodline of the sun. I have to take a look at your blood first.
quality.”
Nasus was silent and said in a low voice: "That's right. Although I have accompanied Setaka in the war for three centuries, the other Ascended Ones, including me, are indeed not as powerful as Setaka."
He looked at Sivir: "But at least her current condition is not suitable for drawing a large amount of blood. As a creditor, you should ensure her safety before repaying the debt."
Sivir was startled and his expression became a little weird, while Ji Xing smiled and said, "That makes sense."
At the same time, Xerath, who was flying close, used dark energy to break through Ji Xing's wind barrier and quickly flew towards Ji Xing's location!
