0564 Trial of the Immortal

Because it was shrouded in black mist, Xiongdu knew almost nothing about what was happening in the outside world.

Whether it was the formation and remonstrance of the noble coalition, or the raid by Noxus, the people of Xiongdu knew almost nothing about it - as the black mist became thicker, even the dragon and bird knights were unable to penetrate the misty fog.

Black mist, brings and sends any news.

During this period, the dark descendant hiding in the black mist kept repeating his shouts, as if he was very much looking forward to someone coming to accept his undead trial.

When he saw that no one was willing to participate in this game of the brave, he even said with a slight annoyance that if no one came yet, the black fog would always shroud the capital and would never go away!

As for the previous commitment to siege the city for one month...

That is only if someone is willing to participate in this trial!

Such repeated behavior caused panic among the residents in the capital. Under this situation, many people began to secretly pray for a few warriors willing to sacrifice themselves to accept this trial in the dark mist.

Under this situation, Xin Zhao, who had always been taciturn, approached Jarvan III and expressed his desire to go to the Black Mist to accept the trial.

"How is this possible?" Jarvan III's eyes widened in disbelief, "You are the steward of the royal family and a relative of me and little Jarvan. You should not be exposed to such strange and unpredictable black mist!

"

"When I was in Ionia, I used to be a fisherman." Facing the astonished Jarvan III, Xin Zhao rarely started talking, "Although I am not a sailor, my hometown is near the sea, and I have heard a lot about it.

The Story of Soul-Eating Night.”

"Those folklore legends cannot be used as a reference!" Jarvan III waved his hand quickly, "Kyle said that there is a terrifying dark descendant hidden in the black mist. Even gods need to be careful with it -"

"Coincidentally, the story I heard at that time was like this." A faint smile appeared on Zhao Xin's face. "It is said that although there are many immortal people in the black mist, it is not the undead people who set off the black mist.

He is an immortal, but a dark descendant who disdains to lead the human world."

"this……"

"Legend has it that the dark descendant is the most proud being in the world. In his eyes, ordinary warriors are just cowards. After investigating the matter of life and death, he made a bold promise that as long as he passes his trial, he will become a coward.

Can fulfill any wish of the other party."

Jarvan III was stunned. If Xin Zhao was not lying, then the legend he told was almost completely consistent with the current situation in the capital. Could it be that the legend was true?

"Legend has it that someone participated in his trial, and after passing the trial, his wish did come true."

Of course, in order to reassure Jarvan III, Xin Zhao remained silent - the way of realizing the wish was completely different from what the tester expected.

"You have given enough for this country." Although Xin Zhao made the trial seem like a trivial matter, Jarvan III was still unwilling to let him risk his life. "If this is really the case, maybe I

This old bone can still give it a try."

"You are the king of Demacia, and there is no need for His Majesty the King to put himself in danger now." Xin Zhao shook his head gently, "I am Viscero."

Viscero is a past that Xin Zhao doesn't want to mention. When he was fighting to the death in the arena day after day as the liquidator of Noxus, Viscero was his name, and he came to

After Demacia, he was reborn under the name of Xin Zhao. After finding his honor and direction, Xin Zhao almost completely forgot about that past, along with the name of Viscero.

But now, facing the rejection of Jarvan III, Xin Zhao smiled and said the name that once troubled him like a nightmare, and Jarvan III was also shocked, clearly realizing what this loyal old man actually did.

What kind of determination have you made?

He really plans to take part in the Trial of the Undead.

And he is the kind who is determined and has no hesitation - after many years of getting along with him, Jarvan III already knows the character of his old friend very well. Although he will follow his orders most of the time, if something happens, it is his own fault.

Having already made up his mind, not even Jarvan III could change Xin Zhao's mind.

Just like now, Xin Zhao has made up his mind to participate in this trial. In this case, the only thing Jarvan III can do is to ask in a relaxed tone, "Can you reveal your wish?"

Facing this question, Xin Zhao showed a rare smile.

"I hope Runeterra will always have peace."

……………………

The next day, Xin Zhao, who had bathed and burned incense and adjusted himself to the best condition, put on the forbidden magic stone armor that represented the German general manager, picked up the spear that had been with him for many years, and under the attention of the soldiers of the garrison,

Walking out of the gate of Xiongdu, we strode into the thick black fog.

Countless people stretched their necks to stare at the figure of the German steward, but as the black mist rolled, he quickly disappeared into it and was never seen again.

Xin Zhao, who was in the best condition, naturally didn't care about the eyes that fell on him. After walking into the black mist, he raised his perception to the extreme, carefully guarding against enemies that might appear at any time.

However, the expected enemy did not appear. The only thing that appeared next to Xin Zhao was the voice that was already familiar to the people of Xiongdu.

"Very good, very good, finally there is a person who does not suffer from rickets." There was still a hint of joking in the voice, "You don't have the aura of a giant god in your body, so come on and accept the trial of the undead.

!”

"Who are you?"

"Hahahaha, I am a great being whose name has been hidden in the long river of time. But now, I am the commander-in-chief of all the undead. My past name is no longer important. You can call me Aatrox!"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Aatrox...

Xin Zhao recalled the legends he had heard and the books he had read. Not a single piece of information mentioned a being named Aatrox.

Did he really hide his name in time?

There was a slight doubt in his heart, but Xin Zhao remained vigilant.

"So, what is the trial? Is it to defeat you?"

"Defeat me?" Aatrox laughed, as if he heard some ridiculous joke, "Although some people told me that times are developing and society is progressing in a spiral, but since the Rune War, mortals have become more and more self-righteous.

——Do you think I don’t want to appear in front of you because I want to remain mysterious?”

"Otherwise?" Zhao Xinxin asked in a matter-of-fact tone, "Why not keep it secret?"

"Of course this is to prevent you from losing your mind due to fear, or even attracting troublesome demons!" Aatrox said in a tone that you should be grateful for, "If you want to see me, then come and take the test.

Just practice, mortals are not qualified to see my true appearance!"

"What exactly is the content of the trial?"

"The trial is very simple." Following Aatrox's words, a small bottle fell from the sky and landed in Xin Zhao's hand. "Take it and face the challenges of the undead warriors until you can no longer support it."

While you're here, drink the liquid inside."

"What does it mean to be unable to support?"

"It's when you are about to embrace death." Aatrox spoke faster, "Okay, don't wait any longer, the undead are already here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the thick fog rolled, leaving a space for Xin Zhao to move. Then a group of skeleton-like mummies crawling on the ground rushed out of the thick fog and headed straight for Xin Zhao.

Xin Zhao stepped forward and swept his spear across, easily repelling these mummies that didn't move quickly and just looked scary. Then, just when he was wondering why the undead trial was so simple, more mummies emerged from the dark

It came out of the fog.

Quantitative changes quickly led to qualitative changes. Xin Zhao rarely experienced the feeling when Lux and Sona conducted simulation training for the first time - the overwhelming combat power of a single mummy was very limited, but when the number increased, as long as the movement was slightly slow, the joints

He would be grabbed, and then the whole person would be quickly knocked down and completely submerged.

Fortunately, Xin Zhao, who was a gladiator, was also experienced in one-to-many. After confirming the combat effectiveness of the mummy, he began to use the spear in his hand to sweep away and smash the corpses.

Dropped all mummies near him.

As the spears danced, clusters of pear blossoms seemed to bloom in the black mist. When the sharp light hit, all the mummies were cut off with one blow. Even if there were more of them, they could not get within two steps of Xin Zhao.

"Very good, it seems that you already have basic fighting skills, and you are not an idiot with nothing but courage." As all the mummies were cleaned up, Aatrox's voice sounded again, "Come on, the warm-up is over now.

, let me see how much energy you have in your body."

The thick fog rolled again, and this time the enemies that appeared in front of Xin Zhao were finally no longer mummies who could only rely on numbers to win - like a revolving lantern, Xin Zhao successively faced strange puppets and dangerous mages who could shoot black ripples.

Troublesome assassins who can flash at short distances, as well as warriors of various styles, all of them have dark skin, tireless, and their eyes seem to be burning with soul fire.

If it weren't for the silent black mist surrounding him, Xin Zhao would almost have thought that he had returned to the deathmatch arena in Noxus. None of these strange enemies were simple opponents, and any one of them needed to be treated carefully by him. After a series of battles,

, Xin Zhao, who was already old, finally felt a little powerless.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is the problem with the mortal body." Aatrox, who had been teasing Xin Zhao's battle like a commentator before, had a rare tone of regret in his tone, "Poor mortal, if I let you

Being twenty years younger, you might actually be able to win the next game and get a chance to face me directly, but now, I'm afraid you will have to stop soon."

"Growing age will indeed bring about aging." Xin Zhao seized the gap between the two waves of enemies and gasped, "But it will also bring me more experience and thinking. Fighting relies on more than just

Reactions and Techniques.”

"That's so good. If I hadn't known an old guy who had said the same excuse, I would have really believed it." Aatrox sneered at Xin Zhao's statement, "Okay, don't take advantage of the idle chatter to regain your strength.

, below you will face the guy who blindly pursues the power of the dark descendants. We call him Bakai. I hope he will not completely tear you apart because his power is out of control..."

As he spoke, a power that made Xin Zhao instinctively feel his heart palpitating suddenly appeared, and then, a twisted monster lying on all fours, like a gorilla, appeared in front of him.

"Bakai has never been a good opponent, because you don't know what he sacrificed in pursuit of power. It may be the brain, or it may just be the human form." Aatrox, who seemed to be very interested in this test, made a guest appearance again.

The narrator said, "Take this guy for example. I clearly sensed Tayalina's aura on him. Considering that idiot habitually can't control his crotch, I have to doubt the birth and birth of this guy."

What kind of bloodline atavism ritual is related to this?"

Although Aatrox's words contained a lot of information, and if Kalya heard it, he could collect a lot of dark history, but at this time, Xin Zhao obviously had no intention to pay attention to the relationship between the Dark Ones - or the Ascended Ones.

Gossip.

Because the Bakai in front of him had already rushed towards him on his hands and knees, and when he opened his mouth, there was a dark elemental sphere that looked very dangerous at first sight.

Xin Zhao immediately swung his spear and struck the dangerous elemental ball with the tip of the spear treated with the forbidden magic stone with great precision.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! With this challenge, the spear in Xin Zhao's hand has experienced a series of fierce battles, but the tip of the spear, which is still discernible, is dyed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the darkness, Zhao Xin realized that this opponent was not an easy one, so he simply chose to bully him and strive for a quick victory.

This is the most difficult enemy that Xin Zhao has faced since leaving the Noxus Arena. Not only does he have long hands, sharp nails, and quick movements, but he also has spell-like abilities, and from time to time he will spit out something like

A deadly corrosive elemental ball.

(So ​​in Aatrox's mouth, this Bakai changed from "the unworthy descendant of Tayalina, the guy who can't control his crotch" to "proof that Tayalina and Naganeka had an affair", it seems

Aatrox has an incomprehensible curiosity about gossip. Even if it hinders his arrogant image, he still enjoys it.)

But in the end, it was Xin Zhao who won - he seized the opportunity and swept away the elemental ball's sneak attack with his long spear Crescent Moon, and then cut off one of the monster's arms. After that, the man who lost an arm

Bakai finally fell behind, and as Xin Zhao perfectly handled all the elemental ball attacks, he finally succeeded in winning.

When the monster finally fell to the ground and became motionless, Xin Zhao leaned on his spear and gasped for air.

Sweat had completely soaked the lining under his armor. Although there were only a few scratches and bruises on his body, at this point, he finally had to admit that he was getting old.

However, soon, Xin Zhao raised his head.

"Come, Aatrox!" he shouted, "appear before me and show me your true face!"

"What a surprising challenge." Aatrox's voice finally gained a hint of appreciation, "Now, mortal, you have won the opportunity to see me - drink the water of life, and you will see me.

To true greatness!”

"It's not that time yet." Xin Zhao touched the small bottle he put on his waist, "You said that you should drink it when you are about to embrace death. My challenge is far from over.

The next opponent is Aatrox."

"Hahahahahahahahahaha!"

Facing Xin Zhao, who was exhausted and almost exhausted, Aatrox laughed heartily.

Then, when Aatrox had laughed enough and Xin Zhao had regained his breath, the fog finally surged again.

"Very well, mortal - I accept your challenge."
