Battle of the Two Cities: Begins with the Mage

The moment the voice fell, her body changed.

The sharp bone spurs on the surface of the skin shrank inward, and the rough and wrinkled parts also tended to be smooth. Overall, it looked like he was wearing a tight black and purple leather jacket.

The first thing to show was her fair and slender neck. Based on the curve of her neck, it was not difficult to judge that she must be an elegant and beautiful woman.

Immediately afterwards, the ugly carapace covering her head disappeared.

Indeed, as everyone expected, there was a bright and moving face under the carapace.

What is striking is that there are two dark lines on the left and right sides of her face, like the wings of a dragonfly, which makes the whole face more youthful and less cold, and the back of her head is like this. The long hair scattered like a waterfall, black and purple, is extremely elegant.

But after a few breaths, the strangely dressed "it" just now had a big change.

"Long time no see...you're the little girl you used to be. I remember the name was...Kisha."

Ryan looked at each other's face carefully, and there was a hint of memory in his expression.

Before he knew it, it had been so long since his first trip to Shurima.

Keisha nodded and shook her head slightly. Her words were much more coherent than before:

"Yes... I, I am now... Name... Kai'Sa! Lord Ryan, how long has it been since you left the village...?"

"11 years." A flash of fluctuation flashed in Ryan's eyes. "I happened to travel to your village at that time. I suffered a lot of injuries from resisting the sandstorm, and I spent a while in your home."

Before, he didn't know what happened after he left...

When he joined Noxus and traveled to Shurima as an invader, he sent someone to find the village.

But it is said that the village disappeared for no reason, leaving no trace.

At that time, Ryan had not really seen the Void, and only knew that many people in the village believed in the Void.

"The village...the whole was swallowed by the void. Mom...everyone...dead." Kai'Sa whispered.

There was a deep sadness in her eyes, although it had been many years, but every time she thought about it, it still made her feel the pain that she couldn't breathe.

"It's all over, at least you got out of there alive, you've done a miracle."

Ryan stepped forward and tapped Kai'Sa on the shoulder.

Kaisha took a deep breath, put away her sadness, and raised her head with a firm look in her eyes:

"Lord Ryan. I'm back for those who can't come back." Saying that, she fell to her knees on the ground, "I have a request, I beg you to destroy the void!"

With her strength, she couldn't estimate how strong Ryan was, but just standing in front of him, her carapace, which originated from a void creature, shrank.

She has experienced this feeling countless times. This is the emotion that Carapace is expressing fear and fear.

However, Kai'Sa was surprised that when she faced the most powerful void creatures, she did not let Carapace be so afraid.

In this cringe state, it is a question whether her second skin can be possessed and transformed again.

So she can already be sure that Ryan's strength is terrifyingly powerful.

She may not be able to keep her promise... but Ryan...

"Ka'Sa, I want to destroy them too, but you underestimated the void." Ryan shook his head slightly.

Gently caressed her hand and pulled her kneeling body up.

"The Void is the enemy of all of us, no doubt about that. But to defeat them, we must learn more about them."

Ryan had the idea of ​​entering the void passage, but whenever this idea arises, a sense of crisis will arise in his heart.

At the other end of the passage, once he descends, there will be a deadly threat from the void.

"...clear"

Kai'Sa bit her lower lip with a bitter expression on her face, but didn't say much.

No one knows the horror of the void better than her. She has struggled to survive alone for ten years in it, and has encountered countless crises... She herself does not know that she can complete the original promise with her own strength. Under the promise?

"It's hard to come back, so let's take a good rest. Katerina will help you get used to it. I still have one thing to solve. When it's finished, I'd like to hear about your experience."

"Lord Ryan, I understand." Kai'Sa nodded lightly.

Katharine on the side showed a friendly expression at the right time, and Kai'Sa looked at her and showed a stiff smile extremely reluctantly.

She hadn't made this look for so long that it was a little difficult.

Ezreal glanced at her sympathetically, and roughly understood the other party's experience, patted his chest and said:

"Miss Kai'Sa, you can always come to me for help with anything in the future. I still have a little reputation in this Rune Land. My name is Ezreal!"

"Thank you...Although I haven't heard your name." Kaisha expressed her gratitude.

At this time, Ryan's hand waved gently, and four dark blue magic halos shrouded everyone.

The little guy seems to like the smell on Kai'Sa, but it has been attached to her carapace.

Suddenly, the four of them disappeared.

Beyond the mausoleum...

boom! of

A loud bang.

The powerful magic energy shot out from Ryze's body, and it shattered Nasus's mana prison directly.

"Why bother..."

Nasus let out a long sigh and raised the axe-shaped scepter in his hand.

Just when he was about to make a move, he sensed the surrounding magic fluctuations and put it down again.

A bright blue circle lit up beside him, and Ryan, wearing a magic cloak, hovered beside Nasus.

Meanwhile, somewhere in the camp.

Three dark blue circles flashed beside Cassiopeia, and after the light dissipated, Katerina and others appeared there.

Seeing the dim sky and the scorched brown scene outside the light curtain, Ezreal couldn't help but widen his eyes:

"What happened here, is it because we entered the mausoleum?"

"That... professor... this is the aftermath of the battle between the head of the council and the mage." Sen Yan said weakly with a face full of fear.

"This... Targon is on top, what a terrifying power." Ezreal swallowed hard, his body trembling slightly.

This is a hundred times stronger than the destructive power of Syndra in the arena at that time. Look at the surrounding deserts, which have been bombarded with holes!

Giant God Peak! This is extremely hard sand, and now it looks as fragile as tofu...

It is enough to imagine what terrifying things happened during the period of his departure.

While Ezreal sighed in his heart, he also noticed the bald mage above the light curtain.

At this time, his whole body was overflowing with magic power, with a might that could destroy the sky and the earth, and Ezreal felt a little unsteady on his feet.

"Oh, how come there are so many dangerous people in this world."

Ezreal muttered, the mage above had a fierce face with purple skin, and he didn't look like a good person.

Above the sky, Ryze saw Ryan, whose magic was almost overflowing, and his eyes were slightly condensed:

"You fused it?" He said with surprise, "How is it possible, why can you carry all its power?"

Although there was doubt and confusion in his words, he already knew the answer in his heart.

For more than a thousand years, it has been with the world's runes almost day and night.

So now, even if it is half a continent away, as long as the world rune fluctuates, he can immediately sense it.

And now Ryan, in his eyes, is like the body of the world rune, and the other party has completely incorporated the power that is enough to destroy the world into his body.

"What are you wondering? It hasn't appeared in the past, it doesn't mean that the latecomers can't do it."

Ryan's tone was flat, as if it was just a trivial matter.

His body slowly floated upwards, and the vast magic power fluctuations flourished from his body. The surrounding environment was almost covered by magic power, and dark blue magic light lit up everywhere.

"no no!"

Seeing the scene in front of him, Ryze's eyes finally filled with fear, and his tone gradually became crazy:

"No one can fully grasp its power, you are killing yourself!"

There was a little panic in his eyes, as if recalling the disaster he had encountered.

Ryze has seen too many bearers of world runes, but none of them have ended well.

In the end, mostly tragic endings...even irreparable damage to the world.

Having said that, he also knew that the overall situation was settled, and it would be difficult for him to get back the world rune that was in Ryan's body.

Integrating with the rune, even if he couldn't use all the magic power contained in it, he couldn't force it out of Ryan's body.

Perhaps only the gods can do this...

But he never gave up the idea, and the disaster brought by the runes made him unforgettable.

He will not allow the disaster of the past to happen again. Even if he knew it wouldn't work, he still wanted to give it a try!

"Boom!!!"

The light of magic shrouded Ryze, and he turned dark blue:

"drink!"

He let out a roar, the muscles in his arms tensed and pushed forward instantly, and thousands of dark blue magic circles were fired from his hands, hitting directly where Ryan and Nasus were.

"Ugh..."

Nasus shook his head regretfully. Facing the incoming spell storm, he had no intention of doing anything.

Instead, Ryan floated a little in the direction of the attack, and an egg-shaped dark blue ball of light formed around him, wrapping him in it.

He just stepped forward and stood quietly with his hands behind his back, without doing any extra action at all.

To others, Ryan is like a puppet that has lost its clockwork, standing in the most dangerous place, indifferently welcoming the magic.

"boom!!"

"boom!!"

The roar of the spell hitting the ball of light sounded like a thunderous strike.

At this moment, an angry tremor resounded in the sky again.

The dark blue magical light ripped apart the sky, and the light shone one after another, covering Ryan's body without leaving a gap, making it difficult to see the scene.

When a gap appeared, what surprised everyone was that the surface of the light sphere was intact, and it was difficult to detect even a tiny crack like a fly's leg.

"Ryze, the magic from the runes has no effect on me."

Ryan shook his head slightly and stretched his left hand forward.

magic in his hands

The heart turned into substance, and a giant python condensed with mana rushed straight towards Ryze.

The long tail of the giant python swayed wildly, and it took off, leaving the light of magical existence in the dark sky at an extremely fast speed.

Everywhere along the way, the spells released by Ryze were all swallowed by the giant python.

When the python was very close to Ryze, he couldn't help but let out a cold snort, put away the spell he cast, and raised the magic book in his hand like a python's head.

"Buzz!"

The giant python slammed into the light shield made by the magic book and let out a loud roar.

The aftermath of the collision between the two quickly spread outward, and the surrounding sand dunes were shaken with smoke and dust.

At this moment, the cat-like little guy rushed out, and its blue body became more and more dazzling. It floated in the air and began to continuously supply magic to the protective cover.

"So strong... Master Ryan and his enemies are so strong" Kai'Sa stared at the battle above, surprised.

She never thought that there is such a powerful existence in this world.

But at the same time, she couldn't help but have some doubts in her heart.

If there are so many strong people in this world, why would the void be allowed to exist?

The Void's intentions couldn't be more obvious, always thinking about invading their territory.

Kai'Sa was puzzled, and what made her even more confused was the almost white-hot battle in front of her.

Seems to be playing for no reason?

The bald-headed mage is very powerful, why do you want to be enemies with Lord Ryan, why don't the two join forces to fight against the void...

Kai'Sa's brows furrowed deeply, her mind filled with doubts.

Several other people also had different expressions, and the anaconda and Cassiopeia were already numb to such an earth-shattering scene.

On the contrary, Katerina and Ezreal, who had missed the previous wonderful duel, were full of fascination.

They hoped in their hearts that one day they would be able to reach such heights.

boom! ! !

The magic power that Ryze burst out was almost endless, but it failed to cause any effect on Ryan.

Even, his attack could not break through Ryan's mask at all.

"World runes related to magic..."

Looking at the world rune pattern reflected in Ryan's eyes, Ryze revealed fear in his eyes.

Different runes symbolized different types of mighty power, and the few runes he had come into contact with before did not have amplifying magic.

On the contrary, Ryan, who is extremely powerful in his own power, has also harvested the runes that have the best compatibility with magic.

In the face of such a powerful enemy, he already knew... that he had no chance of winning.

However, he was not discouraged, such a scene has appeared countless times.

But in the end, no matter how strong the enemy was, he finally recaptured the rune and kept it safe.

This time, it will be the same as before... it's just a matter of time...

In Ryan's hands, magic creations are at his fingertips, with water as bones, magic as flesh and blood, and the power of the world's runes to add souls to them.

Sharks, birds, pythons, dragons...

All kinds of pure magic creatures roared towards Ryze, and then he was blasted with magic.

Ryan didn't want to kill the opponent. At present, he could only suppress Ryze at best, but couldn't prevent the opponent from escaping.

If Nasus was willing to shoot, it would be easy to kill Ryze, but obviously he had no intention of shooting.

Now that he wants to kill the opponent, he can only slowly consume the opponent's magic, and give the last blow at the most critical time.

but...

Seeing the retreat in Ryze's expression, Ryan showed regret.

hum! ! !

This time, the magical creature successfully pounced on Ryze's location, but unfortunately, Ryze, who was standing there, has long since disappeared.

"The old guy who has existed for thousands of years is really troublesome." Ryan whispered with some headache.

"In the face of the disaster of the world, he is still the guardian of the world." Nasus's long voice carried a hint of persuasion.

Ryan laughed dumbly, and the magic shield around him slowly dissipated: "I really hope he can help us in a crisis. When I fused the runes, I detected something bad."

"The underworld is not connected to us, Your Excellency." Nasus seemed to see through everything.

"Yeah, but he has a way to come. I don't want you to be eroded by him." Ryan said with a smile.

"Your Excellency, we have our own way to fight against it." Nasus's eyes flashed.

Not only Ryan, as long as the strength reaches a certain limit, people can feel that there is a power in the underworld just around the corner.

It's just that they haven't been able to detect who opened the door of the dead that should never be opened again.

"Anyway, I still have to thank you for your help, Maester Nasus." Ryan saluted him.

"We can get what we need, don't forget your promise." Nasus sighed softly, and walked away from the desert step by step with his scepter.

"Promise...I will keep...I also want to see how prosperous Shurima was..."

Ryan muttered to himself, and looked at Cassiopeia and the anaconda subconsciously.

He can already feel the gazes of the gods on Mount Titan, and the current empire needs more time

.

Before that, some people or things buried in history can be unearthed in advance...

He drifted towards Katarina and the others step by step, and he had already made a decision in his heart.

When Katerina and others saw Ryan coming back, they saluted in various ways, waiting for his orders.

Ryan first looked at Katarina:

"Katarina, there is no need for guards here. Lead the Southern Front Chapter, occupy the Shurima Continent's road to Ixtar and Icathia, and use the plains below Zaun as the Empire's new Southern Front Chapter. headquarters."

Most of the areas occupied by the Empire in Shurima are the northern seaside area, and the east is near Zaun and Ixtar, where there are very dangerous monsters.

But for the Empire, it's not too dangerous there.

Instead, the homeland of Icathia, southeast of Shurima, is most noteworthy, where countless Void creatures still roam today.

"Understood." Katarina replied coldly, "Your Majesty, how are the arrangements for Mount Targon and the hinterland of Shurima?"

On the west side of Shurima Continent, there is the Giant God Peak, which is always lit with beams of light to the sky. The legendary gods live on the mountain, and at the foot of the mountain are the people who believe in the gods.

Not far to the east of Targon, the former capital of Ancient Shurima is there.

But now, that area is the hinterland of Shurima buried by yellow sand, and both crisis and opportunity coexist.

"Keep the status quo, and those who are willing to leave will let them migrate east. Victor and the others will improve the land environment on the east side of Shurima. This is the second task given to you, and your two new weapons will be combined at that time. Give you."

"Yes!"

Katarina responded, then turned and left to carry out the order.

Her first mission was completed without a hitch, but she wasn't satisfied with it.

Looking at the whole thing, she's nothing but a dispensable little person. She will get stronger, strong enough to follow Ryan.

Ryan then turned his attention to the three of Ezreal, and he said with a smile:

"You did a good job this time. Ezreal, the Empire will bring your name and the Explorers Guild when it releases news."

"Hey, thank you, Mr. Speaker of the Assembly, for all your blessings!"

Ezreal's eyes couldn't hold back the light. Although he didn't do anything great, at least he went all the way from the mausoleum to the end.

This time, he had to go back and have a good blow with the Draven brothers.

"You can arrange the rest of the expedition freely. If you have any difficulties, you can contact me or Katerina at any time."

Seeing Ezreal nodding again and again, Ryan couldn't help showing a smile on his face, surrounded by magical light, and disappeared in place with Kai'Sa.
