Chapter 470 The Power of the Ascended Comes From the Star-Casting Dragon King
Li Lin originally thought about asking Zhinao to send a set of universal nano-armor capable of teleportation to teleport Atreus directly to the destination, but he refused.
According to Atreus, he had not experienced this world with his own body for more than thirty years, and he wanted to take this not-too-distant journey to re-adapt to his body that had been transformed by heavenly magic.
Li Lin did not force it. After saying goodbye to him, he returned to the cockpit of the Tyrant Behemoth and let his brain control the mecha to enter the optical camouflage mode and teleport back to the outskirts of the City of the Sun.
A huge metal box engraved with sealing rune magic, some similar to an enlarged version of Hex's treasure box, had just been shipped out of the Tyrant mecha. Always paying attention to the surroundings of the City of the Sun, Azir and Nasus sensed the teleportation magic. Take the God Emperor's Throne and soon arrive outside the city.
"Your Majesty, Grand Maester." Li Lin looked at Azir, then turned to Nasus and nodded in greeting.
Scarlet light danced in Nasus's eyes, and the surprise could be seen on the jackal's face, "You can actually seal magic?"
"I have a lot of research on rune magic."
Li Lin had a thought and controlled the sealing box to open.
The mechanical parts rotated rapidly, and the dense blue sigils gradually receded. The lid of the seal box was opened, and a thick smell of blood floated in the air.
Nasus frowned, while Azir's face was completely recast with astral magic and star iron, and his expression was indistinguishable.
Immediately afterwards, Li Lin stretched out his hand to activate the magnetic force and lifted Aatrox's great sword that beat like his heart.
Azir and Nasus were obviously not surprised by his many strange abilities. They did not ask how he could control the giant sword without using magic at all. They focused on Aatrox's current body. superior.
Azir was silent for a long time.
Although he didn't know what was going on in his mind, Li Lin could tell from his right paw tightly grasping the spear and scepter that he was not in a good mood right now.
Perhaps out of anger that Aatrox had fallen so low, or perhaps out of sadness that they had ended up like this after protecting the entire world.
Sensing the change in Azir's mood, Nasus immediately bent his left leg and knelt on his right leg. He placed the battle ax in his hand on the ground, crossed his hands on his chest, and lowered his head.
"Your Majesty, this is my dereliction of duty. I failed to guide the Ascended ones to continue assisting your bloodline after the fall of Shurima."
"No, it's not your fault. Get over it."
Azir puffed out his chest and took a breath.
He didn't know that it was Nasus who actually helped the previous Twilight Star Spirit Maisha to find the cross-blade Chalikal of Ascended Queen Setaka, and then used Chalikal to activate the power of heaven and disperse the Ascension. With the divine power of the person, he turned into a mortal and killed him.
On the other hand, some dark descendants, because of Maisha's bad taste, taught humans to use special methods to seal the dark descendants, causing them to suffer torture for thousands of years.
However, since Renekton was sealed to the Emperor's Tomb by himself and Xerath, he has fallen into isolation. Nasus, who is basically indifferent to external things, does not know that the Darkin's tragic sealing has a lot to do with him. .
"You lost Renekton at that time, and you didn't know that I had other bloodlines in the world. It is entirely their own fault that the Celestial Warriors fell into Darkin."
With that said, he controlled the sand to lift Aatrox's sword and took over the control from Li Lin.
The quicksand is slightly thicker and crimson, exuding a manic and bloody atmosphere, like the surface of a giant sword from the abyss, forming a faint sand-yellow magic mist on it.
"Obviously, this is the power of the protoss." Azir said, "The twilight protoss, it is recorded in Shurima's classics that it was the twilight protoss who guided Setaka and 'Jiushen' in Nerimajie built the first sun disk and ascended to become a warrior of the gods."
Yushen was the name of the Targon lineage, long before the people of Yushen were instructed by the Celestial Spirit to present the crown with the curse of the star world to the Star-Forged Dragon King Aurelion Sol.
"Twilight Protoss..." Nasus hesitated for a moment, "I once came into contact with a strange little girl who called herself Maisha. She was a messenger serving Ta'anari at the time."
Ta'anari is a celestial warrior who looks like a cheetah. Since his fall, he has become murderous and conquered many other countries that dared to resist him, and let their kings or queens stay by his side to protect and serve him. The "man who carries the mission".
The Ascended One does not need bodyguards, but to him, they serve as a symbol of his divine will, proving that he can make proud warriors who come with murderous intentions willingly submit to his dominance, and these warriors are skilled enough to hurt him. ordinary posture.
"Maisha has a pair of eyes of different colors, one eye is as blue as sapphire, and the other is as deep purple as dusk. I am deeply impressed by her because her eyes reveal the distance. He is wise beyond his apparent age, even far beyond me.”
Nasus' face clearly showed a look of thought.
"I met Tayanali at that time. He was very wary of this girl named Maisha, but he always kept her by his side, and even tolerated her rashness and unruliness."
There are records of the Twilight Star in Shurima's classics, but there are only a few sporadic descriptions, which only indicate that he taught humans the knowledge of ascension.
Therefore, even the Grand Maester, who is well versed in all the book knowledge of Shurima, does not know much about Maisha.
"The human host of her twilight star spirit."
Li Lin's words attracted the attention of Azir and Nasus.
"Why do you see it?" Azir asked.
"I know this current host of the Twilight Star Spirit. Her name is Zoe. She is one of my lovers..."
Li Lin's face didn't turn red when he said this.
Azir: "..."
Nasus: "!!!"
You can even catch up with the host of the star spirit who has inherited the power of the star spirit. What else can't you do?
After a long pause, Azir continued to ask: "I remember that you seem to know the pair of flying wing sisters from Mount Targon with wings of opposite colors, right?"
"They are the hosts of the Justice Star Spirits, the winged protectors of Demacia." Li Lin explained, "When I visited Demacia, Zoe helped me get to know my sister Morgana, and then my sister Kyle returned When I went to the capital, Xiongdu, I helped them resolve the conflicts that had existed for hundreds of years."
"Well, if Maiisha is the host of the star spirit, then the reason why Ta'anari visited me to find Charikal of the Valkyrie will be clear. It was Maiisha who instigated him."
Nasus' voice was low and he didn't know how to comment. He simply suppressed the desire to "complain" in his heart and ignored the topic.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes widened slightly, "So, the method of sealing the dark descendants was taught to humans by the Twilight Celestial Spirit, and it was the Chalikar that the Celestial Spirit gave to the Valkyrie?!"
The Grand Maester murmured, realizing what he had done.
But even so, he didn't have a single thought of regret.
Their former compatriots have all fallen, causing harm to the two continents of Shurima and Valoran, and almost plunging the entire world into a chaotic war. It is entirely their own fault to be killed or sealed.
But now that the God-Emperor has returned to Shurima, and the current process of the ascension ceremony was damaged when the City of the Sun fell, there is currently no way to expand the Ascension Group.
If the Empire is to return to prosperity and fight the threat of the Void, the power of these once-fallen Darkspawn is indispensable.
Even though they once separated themselves and conquered each other, now that the Desert Emperor has reappeared as a god, they should pick up their faith and swear allegiance to the God Emperor again to atone for their sins.
Nasus looked at Azir, "Can you lift this seal?"
"I can not do anything."
Azir shook his head.
“Once upon a time, although the weapons of most gods warriors were special, they were not indestructible.
"But now, this giant sword with the soul of Aatrox sealed in it, even if I activate the sun disk to attack it, I can't damage it at all."
"Well..." Nasus made a heavy nasal sound and realized the problem. "This is the magic of the stars. Unless they take the initiative to teach it, we can't understand it."
"Maybe Zoe has a way." At this moment, Li Lin intervened, "She should know how to use Chalikar to lift the darkin seal. I can contact her."
Then, he took out the magic marbles Zoe gave him and crushed them without hesitation.
As the glass ball-shaped marbles turned into starlight particles and dissipated in the air, Li Lin originally wanted to tell Azir and Nasus that Zoe was very unreliable and could not tell when she would arrive.
But before he could open his mouth, as the rules of the surrounding environment were distorted, a portal surging with golden light suddenly appeared next to Li Lin.
Immediately afterwards, a girl with an excited smile on her face emerged from it and jumped on him.
She put her hands around Li Lin's neck, clamped her flawless slender legs around his waist, raised her jade feet wearing foot socks, and her jade-like jade toes curled up and spread apart from time to time, showing their owner's excitement and passion. good mood.
"——Oh oh oh! My dear, you finally remembered me. I thought you had forgotten me!"
Zoe kissed Li Lin lightly on the lips as if no one else was watching, and wanted to go further, but he hurriedly stretched out his index finger to point on the cherry red lips.
"Stop it! There is someone else here."
"--Well!"
Zoe frowned slightly, pouted slightly, made a dissatisfied nasal sound, and turned her eyes behind her.
When she saw Azir and Nasus, the depression in her heart suddenly disappeared.
"Wow! A puppy and a dove in golden armor!"
"Shut up!"
Li Lin quickly covered Zoe's mouth, but she bit her slightly.
Realizing that this method was of no use to him, the girl's strange-colored eyes rolled, and she had an idea, sliding her warm tongue across his palm.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
When Li Lin let go of his hand, Zoe glanced at him, "Hmph~~ The space dog doesn't mind if I call him that, so what's wrong with the ascended one?"
She didn't have a good impression of the Ascended because of Aurelion Sol, so her tone wasn't exactly friendly.
Li Lin's face was filled with embarrassment, and he looked at Azir and Nasus with apologetic eyes, "Zoe has always been this kind of character, I apologize to you."
"Hahaha, innocent little girl, it doesn't matter."
Azir waved his hand casually, indicating that he did not care about this "offense".
Anyway, sometimes he jokes with those close to him, and occasionally he calls himself a "dove" instead of an eagle.
Nasus's eyes showed a gleam of thought, and he didn't quite understand why this generation of Twilight Stars was so prejudiced against the Ascended Ones.
"Your name is Zoe, right?"
Hearing Nasus' question, Zoe, who was still clinging to Li Lin, raised her chin and turned her face away slightly, "So what?"
"You seem to be very hostile to us."
"Because you bullied my space dog! He is my best friend... uh, no, no, one of my best friends."
She hugged Li Lin tightly again.
The second time they heard the "humiliating" word "space dog", Azir and Nasus looked at each other, confused.
"Miss Zoe, I wonder who your so-called 'space dog' is? How did we 'bully' him?"
Azir asked,
Li Lin glanced at the side face of Zoe who was biting her lower lip and thinking about what to say.
At this point, it would be a good choice to let Azir realize as soon as possible that the source of the Ascended One's power is the Star-Forging Dragon King Aurelion Thor.
Then, Zoe snorted dissatisfiedly, "Of course you extracted his power and created the Ascended One!"
