Just when Zuo Chi and a group of Light Sentinels entered Shadow Island separately, an extremely mysterious figure appeared outside Shadow Island.
As if appearing out of thin air, they crossed the veil between the spiritual and material realms and appeared out of thin air near the Shadow Isles.
Looking at the black fog ahead, Yang Ling, who was wearing a wolf spirit mask on her face, gradually tightened her grip on the longbow. Her eyes under the wolf spirit mask were deep and solemn.
And right next to Yang Ling, a wolf-headed ghost with a Yang Ling mask on its face floated in the air, circling around Yang Ling's body.
One of the Death Gods of Runeterra——The Eternal Hunting Twins Kindred!
Qian Jue is not the name of one person, but the common name of wolf spirits and lamb spirits.
Kindred, as the most special god of death in Runeland, the sheep spirit and the wolf spirit are independent of each other, but have never been separated.
Wherever the lamb goes, there will be the wolf following!
As the god of death, Qian Jue's mission is to send those deceased souls to paradise, that is, the underworld!
For those who accept their fate calmly, the longbow of the sheep spirit can send them away from the paradise of the living happily; but those who try to escape their fate will be hunted down by the wolf spirit and fall painfully under his powerful bite.
To deny Kindred's existence is to deny the natural laws that govern the operation of all things!
But for Qianjue, the god of death, the existence of the Shadow Isles is nothing short of absolute heresy.
Bound by the black fog of the Shadow Isles, the souls there can never be freed, let alone go to the underworld to enter the next reincarnation, which is completely contrary to the concept of the god of death.
This is not the first time that Kindred has come to the Shadow Isles. It can even be said that Kindred will go to the Shadow Isles once every once in a while in order to find a way to free the undead there.
Although he is very powerful, due to his identity, Kindred cannot enter the Shadow Isles. He can only wander around the outskirts of the Shadow Isles, constantly looking for ways to liberate the Shadow Isles.
"Little Lamb, it seems we still can't do anything."
At this time, the wolf spirit with a sheep spirit mask on his face spoke slowly. His voice was hoarse and low, but the look he gave the sheep spirit was unusually peaceful.
Yang Ling retracted her gaze, raised her hand and gently brushed the mask on Lang Ling's face. Her voice was soft and graceful:
"Soon, dear wolf. Soon."
(In the game, when Kindred buys the Sword of the Ruined King, an easter egg will be triggered, and Lamb will say: "Forged in a place where we are not welcome.")
After entering the Shadow Isles from the north, Zuo Chi has been looking for Maokai and Yorick.
Following the previous path, Zuo Chi arrived outside the Twisted Jungle.
Nothing has changed here. The twisted trees look like ferocious evil spirits, and the roars of the undead that echo from time to time constantly tear at the minds of living beings.
“Tap~~”
In the depressing atmosphere, Zuo Chi's footsteps became unusually loud.
After walking forward for a distance, Zuo Chi came to the interior of the twisted jungle. It was at this time that Zuo Chi saw the thick vines scattered around and the tall figure in the front.
Maokai's appearance remained unchanged, but there seemed to be more tumors and lumps on his body, and the aura emanating from his body became more violent.
He just stayed quietly in the center of the forest, with the roots under his feet rooted in the dark earth, as if he was really just a tree infected by the Curse of Ruin.
Zuo Chi saw that in front of Maokai, there was an evil spirit wandering among the trees, looking pale and dark in the night.
In the past, Maokai would have driven these foul creatures from his territory by piercing its heart with his roots, but now he did not move.
He was too tired, tired of resisting, tired of facing everything before him.
He has reduced his vitality to the limit, and he must do his best to preserve the remaining water of life in his body, because that is his only hope to revive Fukumitsu Island.
Looking at Mao Kai at this moment, an extremely complicated look flashed in Zuo Chi's eyes.
He came to Maokai's side and raised his hand to cover Maokai's wart-covered arm.
A rich breath of life burst out from Zuo Chi's hands and was continuously delivered into Maokai's body.
"Click! Click! Click!"
The bark of Kaimao began to crack, and at the same time, his head hidden underneath was raised, and his turbid eyes looked at Zuo Chi in front of him with confusion.
When he saw the person standing in front of him, Maokai's eyes flashed with a hint of disbelief.
"Zuo Zuo Chi?"
Zuo Chi smiled gently at Mao Kai: "Mao Kai, it's been a long time, but I finally caught up."
The dust and gravel on Maokai's body were shaken off, and he slowly stood up. "It's really you!"
Until now, Maokai still couldn't believe his eyes.
Indeed, Zuochi once said when he left that he would come back soon with helpers, but Maokai always regarded that as a joke to encourage him.
But now, Zuo Chi is actually back!
Moreover, Maokai could clearly sense that Zuo Chi's strength had made a qualitative leap compared to before.
Zuo Chi looked up at Mao Kai and said with a smile: "I promised you that I would come back. I can't go back on my word."
Maokai's eyes were full of hope, but after hesitating for a moment, Maokai shook his head:
“Zuo Chi, you and I alone cannot defeat Viego in the black fog. He may not be your opponent elsewhere, but on the Shadow Island, he will not lose to anyone.”
"My strength only allows me to attack one last time, so my last attack must be made when I am absolutely sure of it."
Hearing Maokai's tone of loss and lack of confidence, Zuo Chi patted his arm and said, "Maokai, do you remember what I said to you?"
"Huh? What?" Maokai asked confused.
Zuo Chi's eyes swept over everything around him, and he said, "I said give me some time, and I would bring people to help you. And now, I'm here, I really brought people here!"
"But."
The long-term oppression has made this once friendly and powerful ancient god extremely unconfident: "How can ordinary combat power compete with the black fog?"
"You'll know just when you go and take a look."
Zuo Chi raised his right hand, and in his hand there was a strong force of ascension.
"Maokai, take my power and head north from the northern coast of the Shadow Isles. You will meet them there."
Maokai looked at the power of ascension handed over by Zuo Chi, his huge eyes were completely illuminated by the golden light. After a long, long time, Maokai nodded his huge head.
"Zuo Chi, let's go now!"
"Wait a minute Maokai."
After handing the power of ascension representing his identity to Maokai, Zuo Chi suddenly called him.
Under Mao Kai's puzzled gaze, Zuo Chi said softly: "Just go, and help me tell them about the next plan."
"What are you going to do?" Maokai said worriedly, "The Shadow Isles are very dangerous right now. Viego has gone mad."
Zuo Chi chuckled and shook his head: "I still have something very important to do."
After examining Zuo Chi for a long time, Maokai finally turned his head and looked into the depths of the twisted jungle.
"Zuo Chi, I wish you good luck. No matter what, I will be grateful for everything you have done."
"Yorrick, come over here!"
Shortly after Maokai's voice fell, a figure shrouded in a black robe appeared in front of Zuo Chi.
When Yorick saw Zuo Chi again, he was also extremely surprised.
At this time, Maokai's voice sounded: "Come with me, Yorick. Viego is looking for you. Your Maiden of the Mist has the soul fragment he wants. He will not let you go."
There was a long silence, and finally, Yorick nodded.
"Master Maokai, I will go with you."
After saying goodbye to Zuo Chi again, Maokai flew quickly towards the northern part of the Shadow Isles with the plan that Zuo Chi told him, and Yorick followed behind Maokai.
Just as Maokai said, the Maiden of the Mists summoned by Yorick holds fragments of Isolde's soul, and he is also one of Viego's targets.
After watching Maokai and Yorick quickly disappear, Zuo Chi withdrew his gaze. He tightly gripped the hilt of the Star Iron Sword in his hand and plunged headfirst into the black fog in the south.
Compared with the last time, Zuo Chi's power has undergone a tremendous change. He no longer needs to be afraid of the evil god, the Vicious Throat, who is blocking the periphery of the Twisted Jungle.
All he needs to do is head south to find the lost king!
-
"How dare you touch my queen with your dirty hands!"
Just as Zuo Chi was rushing south from the north of Shadow Island, the atmosphere on Viego's side had become extremely tense.
After being knocked away by Viego's sword, Thresh rolled a long way on the ground in a very embarrassed manner.
But despite this, Thresh still stood up humbly and carefully.
"My king, I was negligent."
However, when Thresh said this, no one noticed the hatred and unwillingness burning in his eyes.
Obviously, his chess pieces were somewhat out of his control.
Bowing slightly to Viego, Thresh retreated to one side, leaving Viego alone among the Sentinels of Light.
At this time, the Sentinels of Light were staring at Viego in front of them with eager eyes. Senna came to the front of the team, while the others dispersed and surrounded Senna in a semicircle in the middle.
Viego looked at the Sentinel of Light in front of him. His gaze did not even linger on other people for a moment. He just stared at Senna in the front.
Viego slowly raised his right hand, and the Sword of the Ruined King in his hand pointed directly at Senna's chest.
"How do you deserve to have her soul? Give her back to me!!"
Viego let out a hysterical roar, and then he instantly turned into a stream of green light and rushed straight towards Senna.
"boom!"
The Holy Stone Light Cannon in Senna's hand was knocked away by the Sword of the Ruined King in Viego's hand almost in the blink of an eye, and he also came in front of Senna.
A green light flashed in his hand, and Viego pulled his hand suddenly in front of Senna's chest. In an instant, a light blue light ball was torn out of Senna's body.
At the moment when the ball of light was pulled out of Senna's body by Viego, Senna's eyes completely lost their luster.
As the ball of light in front of her chest was held in Viego's hand, Senna's body was lifted off the ground by Viego's power. At this moment, she was like a doll without a soul, completely losing the ability to move.
But at this moment, a smoke bomb with a little fire at the tail was thrown out from the side and landed right at Viego's feet.
"Bah!"
The mist in the smoke bomb instantly spewed out, completely submerging Viego who was in it. At the same time, the weapons in the hands of the Light Sentinels who had been on standby nearby lit up at the same time.
A large number of holy stone light bullets were released towards Foyego's body, and the bodies of the light sentinels began to flash rapidly.
