Before this, Lux had never been involved in combat command courses, and her study of military theory was only at the level of common sense. However, when she faced Nocturne who had burned the demonic origin, but still showed that she was capable of fighting,
The first generation of fearless pioneers stationed here resolutely followed her guidance and stood in front of the bright light-transmitting singularities.
These ancient and noble warriors danced with their souls, guarding the remaining light for Lux, and blocking the shadow creatures who replaced Nocturne to extinguish the light-transmitting singularity.
Of course, it's just a stop.
As a black magician who once wreaked havoc on Valoran, even though these shadow creatures now have no human form and are extremely twisted, they are not easy to deal with in a real fight.
After being completely fed by demons, these shadow creatures indeed lost their minds and were unable to cast spells as before, but a few of them seemed to have gradually gained some spell-like abilities due to their high level of magical attainments.
Even though they can hardly withstand a round in front of Lux, they are almost instantly destroyed by strong light... But that's because the opponent is Lux and uses light magic!
When facing the soul warriors, these shadow creatures finally showed their difficult side. On the one hand, they were controlled by Nocturne, and on the other hand, they instinctively hated the bright light. They naturally twisted their bodies and tried their best.
The earth wants to extinguish the eye-catching light, and anyone who dares to stand in front of them will be attacked at all costs.
Mad dog-like attacks and endless shadow spells brought considerable trouble to the soul warriors. Fortunately, these guys had no brains. After suffering some losses at the beginning, the soul warriors soon discovered that as long as they relied on light transmission,
If you use Singularity to defend yourself, they will rush over and get beaten stupidly.
With this discovery, the battle becomes easier.
The soul warriors who have been able to persist until now are without exception the elites among the elites. If the enemy has such obvious weaknesses, it is natural to firmly grasp them!
So, after just releasing a large number of shadow monsters, Nocturne, who thought he had a chance of victory, was shocked to find that these shadow monsters were quickly eliminated one by one by the soul warriors. Apart from being caught off guard at the beginning, there was almost no real impact.
The trouble...
Nocturne was dumbfounded this time.
Realizing that these shadow creatures were probably no match for him, Nocturne had no choice but to take action himself - it was not possible to extinguish the light-transmitting singularity directly, but he could first take care of the soul warriors guarding the light-transmitting singularity!
You can be resurrected, but by the time you are resurrected, the light magician’s magic power will no longer be able to hold on!
Well, that’s it!
Thinking of this, Nocturne's figure disappeared into the shadows. After a moment, he came to a light-transmitting singularity. Without hesitation, he waved the shadow-shaped blade and slashed at the soul guarding the light.
warrior.
It's a coincidence that Nocturne's target of attack this time is none other than Lux's biological uncle Jaka - compared to those time-honored soul warriors who have fought bloody battles with Nocturne for many years, although Jaka is also considered an outstanding person, but
After all, it was a bit of a mistake. Nocturne targeted him, which seemed to be a bit of a pick on the weaklings.
With the wind in the back of his head, Jaka barely managed to avoid the blow, and faced Nocturne's next blow - seeing that there was no way to avoid it, he simply took action.
"This way, Lux!"
The next moment, Nocturne's shadow blade cut through Jacka's soul, but at the same time, Jacka also forcibly defeated the light-transmitting singularity around him.
Sensing the shattering of the light-transmitting singularity, Lux directly summoned an ultimate flash of light without any hesitation.
When he saw Jacka break through the light-transmitting singularity, Nocturne had already realized that something was wrong, but unfortunately, the explosion of the light-transmitting singularity delayed its action. When the ultimate flash came on, it was still clearly illuminated.
Clearly...
"Uh-huh——"
Barely holding up a shadow shield, Nocturne dragged his tattered body out of the area shrouded in bright light.
After escaping back into the shadows, Nocturne was really a little numb this time.
How did things become like this?
That light magician who comes from nowhere...who is she?
It hadn't felt it before, but this time it was hit by the ultimate flash again, and it clearly felt the indescribable power of it. It seemed that she was looking for a way to cast a spell that could completely defeat herself little by little!
Isn't she from Demacia?
How could there be such a keen mortal?
Where did she learn these spellcasting skills?
Don't Demacians regard mages as savage beasts?
Why would those smelly, tough soul warriors be willing to assist a mage?
With all kinds of thoughts and doubts, Nocturne truly felt what it meant to be powerless.
Among the shadows and fog, the light-transmitting singularities still shine with a faint brilliance. They are like stars in the night sky, anchoring Lux's position, determining the direction, and guarding these light-transmitting singularities.
The soul warriors are like warriors standing by the beacon tower. On the one hand, they protect the light-transmitting singularity from being destroyed at will, and on the other hand, they will warn Nocturne when he appears.
The combination of the two, although the fortress is still filled with shadows, Lux seems to be at home, at home.
No, we can't go on like this!
After trying a few more times, Nocturne, who was almost wiped out by the ultimate flash, finally gave up and continued fighting unwillingly.
If the fight continues, let alone escaping from the Shadow Realm - it's better not to die directly in front of this light elemental mage!
However, it was too late to leave at this time.
Nocturne burned his demon origin and consumed those demon servants. If he chooses to leave this time, and wants to leave the Shadow Realm through the fortress gate and return to Runeterra, it may no longer be possible.
Although Nocturne has always been very patient, he knows his own affairs, and after being chilled several times by Lux's ultimate flash, he has become extremely weak.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Without emotions as a supplement, this kind of weakening cannot be recovered - but if you don't leave the Shadow Realm, Nocturne will have no source of emotions to supplement!
This is a dead end!
Another reluctant attempt was made to sneak around Lux. After being discovered, Nocturne did not hesitate at all, and fled directly into the shadows, never to emerge again. The shadows gradually faded, and the nightmare demon seemed to have given up on attacking the fortress and planned to escape.
.
Gradually, the thick black fog dissipated.
After confirming that Nocturne had left the fortress, Lux stood on the top of the fortress again - although she repelled Nocturne's attack, she was not relaxed at all.
Nocturne retreated too decisively, and even though Lux had the intention to stop it, she couldn't stop it at all.
This is slightly different from the initial tactical plan of Lux and Ino.
The original plan was that the devil was difficult to catch, so Kalya and Ino led him into the urn, first took care of Evelyn, and asked Lux to hold Nocturne away. After Ino and Kalya came back, they would deal with Nocturne together.
But now it seems that Lux can no longer hold Nocturne back.
However, Lux really had no other choice. She burned the demon's origin and summoned a group of strange shadow creatures called Nocturne. After fighting for her life, her combat effectiveness far exceeded her expectations.
If it weren't for the unexpected assists from the Soul Warriors, the outcome of the battle would still be unknown...
Now, Nocturne has escaped.
But Lux couldn't catch up.
The Shadow Realm is huge, and the consequences of a single-handed pursuit could be quite serious.
In this situation, all Lux can do is wait silently - she can't catch him alone, but if Ino can bring Kalya back in time, the three of them working together may not be able to catch Nocturne.
……………………
Driving the dark clouds, Nocturne fled far away from the fortress guarding the gate of the Shadow Realm.
After swallowing the bitter pill of failure, Nocturne now needs to make some repairs - although there are no living people for him to swallow his emotions, but through some unstable shadow cracks that sometimes appear and sometimes don't appear, it sometimes still
It can add a little strength.
The kind that's better than nothing.
This power is not enough to allow it to recover in any substantial way, but it can at least allow its now tattered shadow body to recover slightly.
What does this torn sack-like body look like!
In addition, after some repairs, Nocturne still needs to contact Evelyn again.
Presumably this stupid guy has realized that Tam is untrustworthy, right?
Well, I must find a way to make it stand on my side and follow me to break through the defense of the fortress...
In a sense, Nocturne really hopes that Evelynn can learn from her mistakes, but she doesn't want Evelynn to become too smart, otherwise it will be difficult to use her.
In the black mist, Nocturne was floating in the air, heading away from the fortress, trying to find an unstable passage to Runeterra to see if that unlucky mortal could contribute emotional value to him.
Um, wait, did you forget something?
While searching for the nearest shadow rift, Nocturne was thinking about where this subtle feeling of discomfort came from. When it was about to reach its destination, the nightmare demon realized that Evelin had run away in embarrassment before.
Maybe he was running to escape from the Shadow Realm!
In other words, the destination where I want to replenish my extreme emotions and adjust myself a little may actually be a chaotic battlefield?!
Realizing this, Nocturne immediately changed direction without any hesitation.
The Shadow Realm is big enough, and although there are not many strange shadow rifts, they are not too few. In this state, it is best not to take risks easily - without those shadow creatures, Nocturne actually has more
There is no end to the dim sum.
However, just as Nocturne began to change direction, a wall of ice blocked its path.
"Well done!" Ino, who hurried back to the Shadow Realm, brightened up after seeing Nocturne, "I was worried that I couldn't find you!"
Although he didn't know what happened between Ino, Vayne, Tam and Evelyn, Nocturne secretly cried out in pain when his way was blocked by the ice wall.
How could it be such a coincidence that I met her just after leaving the fortress?
Although Lux did not pursue rashly for the sake of safety, Nocturne did not know this. Seeing that Ino looked like he had been waiting here for a long time, it did not hesitate at all and escaped directly into the shadow, following the shadow and walking away in embarrassment.
, without the slightest hesitation.
It would be troublesome if you were really left behind!
But just because Nocturne is leaving doesn't mean that Ino will let it go easily.
Unlike Lux, who had no confidence and was reluctant to act without authorization, Ino, who had just captured Evelyn and controlled Vayne, could be considered confident now that Kalya was guiding her.
Especially after seeing Nocturne's extremely embarrassed appearance, she had already realized the outcome of the battle at the fortress.
In this case, instead of beating the drowned dog, should we let the tiger go back to the mountain?
So, under Kalya's constant urging, Ino activated his remaining magic power and created an ice and snow storm in an attempt to stop Nocturne.
Nocturne, who was enveloped by the spell, was still a bachelor. Seeing that the ice blade was as sharp as a knife, it simply transformed itself into a shadow form and allowed these ice knives to pass through its body.
This method of response will not cause Nocturne to be too seriously injured, but it will still affect Nocturne's subsequent strength and recovery. It can be said to be a very decisive method.
Ino, who thought he could at least slow down Nocturne for a while, couldn't help but be a little dazed when he saw this scene.
In her impression, elemental beings should be as powerful, pure, and indestructible as Sephikar.
What she never expected was that Nocturne, a demon with a shadow body, would actually play new tricks with his elemental body.
Like smoke, like running water, Nocturne in this posture can only be described as slippery - unless it is an extremely restrained elemental magic such as light elemental magic, ordinary spells can only penetrate the body and cause no damage at all.
No substantial harm!
Seeing that this guy was about to escape into the darkness and disappear, Ino once again made an ice skateboard to catch up with the ice floe, and asked hurriedly to Kalya:
"Isn't this guy running too fast?" Ino's tone was full of worry, "It's completely different from the previous demons!"
"Different demons represent different extreme emotions, so it is impossible to generalize." Kalya said in a serious tone, "However, we may not be able to catch this guy...Thanks to Vayne, she is our best guide."
"I remember that when she left the Shadow Realm, her whole body was about to melt?"
"Elemental bodies under special circumstances may not be able to adapt to the external environment." When it came to this topic, Kalya's tone was somewhat solemn, "Vien accepted the power of the shadow, and after leaving the shadow realm, her body...
A collapse will occur, and I have seen this happen many times, but now as long as I let her out, she will recover quickly."
"So, we are going to chase Vayne and let her hunt Nocturne, just like we followed her to chase Evelynn before?"
