Ornn didn't speak for a long time, but Zuo Chi and Anivia both felt the loneliness in him.
"Brother." Anivia called softly.
After a long time, Aoun came back to his senses. He shook his head violently, but his unconscious action caused Anivia, who was perched on the horns above, to stagger.
"Zuo Chi, use your weapon well. Its power will be far beyond your imagination."
Zuo Chi nodded and looked at Ornn beside him:
"Ornn, in fact, there are still some descendants of the former Hearthlanders in many places in Freljord. If you need, I can gather them back to Hearthland again."
"No, my friend."
Aoun rejected Zuo Chi without hesitation: "I don't want the tragedy to happen again, and they should all live their current lives well."
Zuo Chi had guessed this would happen a long time ago.
As if remembering something, Zuo Chi suddenly looked at Ornn and Anivia.
"Ornn, Anivia, I have something I want to ask you."
"Huh?" Ornn and Anivia were both confused.
Zuo Chi continued: "Do you know the secrets of the Frost Guard and the Howling Abyss?"
After the previous experience of encountering Vel'Kazoo in Monster Ranch, Zuo Chi always felt a little uneasy. If the void rift under the Howling Abyss was really opened, Freljord would undoubtedly become the second Icathia, even more tragic than Icathia.
After all, the Icathian Void Rift had to face the entire Ascended Legion of Shurima, thousands of Ascended, but the Freljord only had a handful of Old Gods.
How could other ordinary Iceborn or mortals possibly contend against the void creatures?
After hearing Zuo Chi's words, Ornn and Anivia were silent for a moment.
Ornn nodded first. "Ten thousand years ago, I felt the evil power, and I helped the three Ice Sisters dig the Howling Abyss and build the bridge over it."
"Hmm?" Zuo Chi raised his eyebrows.
Howling Abyss was actually dug out by Ornn! ?
This was the first time he heard the news.
Following Ornn's words, Anivia also said: "I once chose to die with a group of scourges near the Howling Abyss in order to stop them from wreaking havoc on the mortal villages. It took a long time for them to hatch again. But that was thousands of years ago."
"Those evil spirits are tainted with that evil power. I have even sensed it from Lissandra."
"What's wrong, Zuo Chi, did you find anything?"
Now when facing Zuo Chi, Anivia's tone no longer had the previous majesty, but became very friendly.
Listening to the words of the two ancient gods, Zuo Chi also understood that the ancient gods of Freljord should all know about the existence of void cracks under the Howling Abyss.
Thinking of this, Zuo Chi did not hide anything and directly told them about his encounter with Viktor in the Monster Ranch.
"The appearance of Vel'Koz may mean that the seal of the Ice Tomb beneath the Howling Abyss has loosened."
Hearing Zuo Chi's words, Anivia and Ornn frowned.
Although they used to be free and relaxed gods, when something really threatens the Freljord, as the creators of this land, they will still take it to heart.
"Zuo Chi, if you find anything later, please let me and my brother know."
Nodding slightly, Zuo Chi was just about to continue asking some questions related to the Frost Guard. Based on previous contacts, Zuo Chi was very sure that Lissandra's strength was infinitely close to that of ancient gods like Anivia.
However, almost at the same time when Zuo Chi was about to speak, a roar that resounded through the heavens and the earth suddenly came to his ears.
"Roar! Boom!"
Turning his head suddenly, Zuo Chi, Ornn and Anivia beside him looked towards the northern sky.
There, the three saw the dark thunderstorm lingering in the sky and the dense thunder that continued to fall to the ground below.
Anivia retracted his gaze and said in a deep voice:
"Voliber is fighting!"
-
The central station of Bearman Island.
The threat of death caused Sejuani's body to tremble violently, and beads of sweat oozed out of the palms of her hands that held the True Ice Flail.
At this moment, Sejuani finally understood the source of the sense of crisis in her heart.
She would never have thought that the Ursine and Volibear, who were supposed to go to the Monster Ranch, would appear here!
All of his movements are firmly under the control of the other party.
Beside Sejuani, the orange-red light on Olaf's body was becoming more and more intense. His Iceborn blood was boiling, and the violent factor filled every cell of his body.
"Sejuani, get out of here."
Olaf knew that what he longed for today was right in front of him, and he would use everything he had to fulfill his promise to Sejuani.
At this time, Volibear's teasing voice also came.
"Daughter of Winter's Claw, you are so brave that you actually walked into the territory of the Ursine tribe in such a swagger, and planned to steal my treasure."
Sejuani raised her head and looked at the towering shadow in the thundercloud:
"God of Thunder, you knew I was coming back a long time ago. Everything you did was fake!"
"hehe."
The thunderclouds slowly parted, and Volibear's gigantic figure, nearly a hundred meters tall, appeared in front of Sejuani.
"I told you before that if your supplies are insufficient, we will meet again. However, I didn't expect it to be so soon.
Daughter of Winter's Claw, join me and become my warrior, and I will let this ant beside you go. "
"Sejuani, don't agree to him." Olaf roared.
He looked up at the sky with his eyes wide open: "God of Thunder, come and fight me!"
"Olaf, take Daweng away."
Suddenly, just as Olaf finished speaking, Sejuani's voice, as calm as the stagnant water of a deep pool, rang in his ears.
"Sejuani, what are you talking about!" The red light on Olaf's body was becoming more and more intense, and he felt that his mind was on the verge of losing control.
"Take Da Weng away!" Sejuani roared in a low voice.
Sejuani knew very well that Volibear's target was only her. If there was anyone between her and Olaf who could take the lord away, that person could only be Olaf.
Although the hope of success was as slim as finding a needle in a haystack, Sejuani did not want to give up this only hope.
Sejuani had to admit that she had underestimated the cunning of the Thunder God Volibear, and she should have listened to Udyr and Zuo Chi.
But it's too late to say this now.
She now had to preserve Winter Claw's only hope.
Sejuani threw the urn on her back to Olaf, and she roared: "Rather than both of us dying in vain, let's fight one last time."
"Cross the Ice Sea and head south to the nearest Furnace Mountain. The God of Fire and Forging will surely protect you."
Olaf caught the big bird that was as tall as a man. His body was shaking violently and even his voice was filled with tears.
"Sejuani, I swore to use my life to help you get what you want!"
"But now things have gone beyond our expectations." Sejuani said slowly: "Olaf, take Daweng away. His target is me, I will delay as much time as possible."
Under the storm flashing with endless thunder, Olaf and Sejuani stared at each other for a long time.
Finally, Olaf carried the big owl on his back, jumped onto Steelmane's back, and rode Steelmane back in the direction they came from.
In the cold wind, Olaf's voice, accompanied by thunder, echoed throughout most of the Bearman Island.
"Sejuani, after sending Da Weng back to the tribe, I will come to Bear Island again!"
A sad smile appeared on Sejuani's face, and she turned around again to look at Volibear in the sky.
At the same time, Volibear's sarcastic words came.
He looked at Olaf who was going away at a very fast speed without caring about it, and said with a playful smile: "Do you really think he can walk out of Bearman Island under my watch?"
"Sejuani, become my warrior and ask him to send Da Weng back. I can let him live."
Seeing Olaf leaving, there was no trace of tension on Volibear's face. Instead, he looked indifferent.
But this is normal. After all, with Olaf's speed, it is almost impossible to cross the Frozen Sea in a short time. Volibear can even assimilate Sejuani into a bear man first, and then deal with Olaf.
In response to Volibear's words, Sejuani did not say anything else, but chose to prove her answer with practical actions.
There is no way she would be assimilated into a werebear by Volibear, because that would be more painful than letting her die.
As the reincarnation of the martially renowned Serilda and the Warmother of the Winter's Claw, Sejuani would never abandon her dignity and become a bear-man who only knew how to kill.
With a dazzling blue light in her hands, Sejuani, holding the True Ice Flail, rushed towards Volibear without hesitation.
With her feet heavily on the ground, Sejuani suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the thunderstorm with the True Ice Flail in her hand.
Looking at Sejuani's actions, Volibear's eyes were full of a cat playing with a mouse. He raised his bear claws, and the thunder in the sky descended, striking straight at Sejuani below.
"Crack!"
With nowhere to gain leverage in the air, Sejuani fell heavily to the ground under the thunder that carried enormous force.
But even so, Sejuani still stood up quickly and rushed towards the thunderstorm where Volibear was again without giving up.
Facing Sejuani's attack, Volibear was not in a hurry. He just destroyed Sejuani's self-esteem again and again.
This is Volibear's usual tactic. He will completely shatter Sejuani's self-esteem, and then use his violent will to invade Sejuani's mind and assimilate this descendant of the three ice sisters whom he hates the most into a bear man!
As time went by, the wounds on Sejuani's body became more and more numerous, and even the ice on the True Ice Flinchpin in her hand was covered with cracks.
As the most advanced Iceborn, Sejuani is very powerful, but when facing an ancient god, and one of the most powerful ones, she is as immature as a baby.
Her attacks couldn't even have any effect on Volibear, but Volibear could inflict devastating damage on her with just a wave of his hand.
This may be the power gap between humans and the ancient gods, and perhaps it is also the reason why the three ice sisters paid such a high price in order to obtain the power to compete with the ancient gods.
Standing in the center of the Ursine settlement, Sejuani was breathing heavily, her helmet had fallen to the ground, and her long white hair was scattered.
"Sejuani, this is your last chance. Give up your ridiculous dignity." Volibear's teasing voice continued.
Sejuani raised her head, her eyes piercing through the layers of dark clouds, and looked directly into Volibear's eyes: "Volibar, then you kill me!"
"Haha, as you wish."
