Originally, the two thought that no matter whether that place was where Zolani was, they would at least go and take a look.
However, just when Zuo Chi and Varus had walked about a thousand miles away, Varus' body suddenly stopped, and his running body stopped instantly.
"What's wrong?" Zuo Chi turned his head and asked.
Varus said suspiciously: "I actually sensed Anaca's aura. He went to another place where there was Zolani's aura."
"Anaca? Who is that?" Zuo Chi was confused.
Varus had a puzzled expression on his face. "One of Aatrox's former followers. He disappeared from Runeterra right after Aatrox was sealed. He appears now, probably to look for Aatrox."
Hearing this, Zuo Chi's eyes narrowed slightly.
Varus was not a former follower of Aatrox, so he did not know that Aatrox had summoned his followers, but Zuo Chi knew it, after all, he was a witness.
After a while, Zuo Chi patted Varus on the shoulder and suddenly said:
"Veros, let's go find Anaca!"
Varus: "Hmm?"
143. Chapter 143 Blood Magic! Energy Obelisk!
In the vast desert, a tomb about three meters high stands quietly in the yellow sand.
The surface of the tomb has been completely covered by yellow sand, but even from a long distance, one can still smell the strong fishy odor coming from it.
Perhaps because the yellow sand covering the surface was not thick enough, the originally gray sand and dust was actually oozing dark red blood.
"Tick tock~!"
The lumps of sand were blown away by the wind, and the things under the yellow sand were exposed to the air.
It turned out to be a hill made entirely of corpses!
And it was at this moment that a tall figure suddenly fell from the sky and landed straight in front of the corpses.
The man was about two meters and five meters tall, holding a strangely shaped blood-red spear. There was a row of sharp bone spurs on the back of his arm. On his face, which was covered by a triangular bone mask, a pair of bloodshot eyes were staring at the corpse in front of him.
Darkin Spear - Anakka!
In response to the general's call, Anakka first returned to the Shurima continent and has been searching for Zolani's breath.
Just as Varus had felt before, there were actually more than a dozen traces of Zolani's aura in the vast Shurima continent, and the aura of each place was so similar that it was impossible to tell the real from the fake.
In this case, Anaca had no choice but to start from the nearest one and look for them one by one.
This is the first place he came to.
Anaka's eyes beneath the mask examined the corpse in front of him, feeling the breath of the Darkin emanating from it. He knew that this should be the source of Zolani's breath.
With Zolani's blood magic, it would be too easy to create these blood clots as long as there were enough corpses.
Zolani is not here. She created these corpse tombs probably to distract their attention.
Thinking of this, Anaka retracted his gaze, raised the spear in his hand, with blood shining on the spear, and rushed straight towards the pile of corpses in front of him.
In an instant, violent power burst out from the spear, and all the corpses in front of Anaca exploded.
However, just as the body parts were blown into pieces and flew everywhere around, Anaca's body suddenly shook violently.
Amid the exploding blood clots, the crisp sound of chains sliding was heard, and a pair of curved-blade chainsaws pierced through the corpses falling like a rain curtain and rushed straight towards Anaca's arms.
Anaka's heart skipped a beat. This sudden scene made him a little stunned, but soon, Anaka turned the spear in his hand, and the three sharp blades on the spear slid and lined up together, and then the spear chopped down towards Zolani's curved chain saw.
"boom!"
The two streams of blood collided wildly, and the spear in Anaka's hand suddenly retreated a few points, but he still relied on his superb fighting skills to dissolve the power from the spear and dodged the attack by turning sideways.
The curved-blade chainsaw was retracted by the chain, and Anaca looked up at the other side of the corpse.
There, Zolani, holding a curved-blade chainsaw, was looking at Anaka with a playful expression. Under her feet, the blood flowing from the corpse was quickly gathering towards Zolani and then merging into her body.
"Zorani, coward!"
As soon as Zolani appeared, Anaca screamed in a sharp voice.
Hearing Anaca addressing her, Zolani took a step forward, her eyes filled with an inexplicable sarcasm:
"Anaka, if I'm guessing correctly, it was Aatrox who called you here."
Anaca's eyes never left Zolani's body, and his head turned as Zolani moved:
"The general's decree has been issued. It won't be long before my compatriots gather together. You, a coward, will surely be crushed to ashes!"
Anakka's voice was filled with infinite respect and trust for Aatrox:
"General Aatrox is the one who should unite all the darkin, and you, a coward, can only be a stepping stone for the general!"
"Oh?" Zolani tilted her head.
She did not rush to attack Anaca, but said thoughtfully: "But, I didn't see Aatrox coming, did I?"
"Have you seen Aatrox?"
Anaca's tone choked slightly. Yes, although he came here following Aatrox's call, he has not met Aatrox so far.
"So what? I will clear the obstacles for the general first, and then go meet him!"
Anaca looked a little nostalgic. He raised his spear high and pointed it at Zolani's head:
"I haven't seen the general for thousands of years, and your head is my gift to the general!"
"You are so naive, Anaka."
Facing the flash of blood on Arcana's spear, Zolani's expression remained unchanged.
"You also said that we haven't seen each other for thousands of years. Who knows if Aatrox has changed?"
"You know, Aatrox escaped a long time ago, but he didn't come to find you right away. Instead, he called you to come now that he needed to fight. Do you know what this means?"
Zolani came to Anaca, her eyes fixed on Anaca:
"Aatrox didn't want to take any risks, so he sent you to die. You are just his pawn!"
"You fart!"
Anaka suddenly shouted loudly, and without any hesitation, the spear in his hand tensed up the muscles in his arms and chopped towards Zolani.
"I have followed the general in battle for a thousand years, and he has saved me countless times. The relationship between us is something that a coward like you cannot understand."
"hehe!"
Zolani's hands glowed with blood, and the turbid blood condensed into a shield to block Anaca's attack, while she continued:
"People change, Anaca, especially a madman like Aatrox. Otherwise, why would he let you take this risk alone? He killed our other compatriots back then, and he will kill you now!"
"Zorani, coward, die!"
Anaca no longer wanted to listen to anything Zolani said, because in his opinion, everything Zolani said was an insult to Aatrox, and she was trying to sow discord between him and Aatrox.
The bone spurs on the back of his arms fully opened, and a pair of bony wings condensed behind him. The wings flapped at a high speed, and Anaca rushed straight towards Zolani from above.
It is well known among the Darkin that Zolani does not have wings, so in front of enemies with flying abilities, Zolani's combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.
"Qiang!"
The curved-blade chainsaw collided with the spear, and the chains instantly entangled the front end of Anaca's spear and then pulled it down suddenly.
Zolani naturally knew that he couldn't fly, so he had to try his best to pull Anaca from the sky to the ground.
However, Anaka was once a god-warrior and now a darkin. He was a powerful warrior under Aatrox who had experienced many battles. How could he ignore this?
The front ends of the spears that were originally pieced together separated in an instant, and as the sharp blade slid quickly, Zolani's chains fell off, and Anaca's attack came to Zolani again.
"Coward, you dare to insult Aatrox, you must die today!"
For a moment, two figures engaged in a fierce collision amid the corpse fragments.
As the roars continued, Zolani kept telling Anaca:
"Anaca, Aatrox has changed. He has become a coward. Ever since he killed our compatriots with his own hands, he is no longer worthy of being your general."
"He sent you here to die. He just wanted you to weaken my power so that he could take advantage of it."
"Zolani, shut up!"
Faced with Zolani's provocation, Anaka's heart never wavered in the slightest. On the contrary, because of Zolani's insult to Aatrox, Anaka's attacks became more and more violent.
A follower of Aatrox since ancient Shurima, he was attracted and impressed by his character.
He was extremely powerful, sincere, a good leader, and always at the forefront of every battle. He had everything a general should have.
In war after war, Aatrox saved his life from countless powerful enemies.
Later, even after the ancient Shurima Empire collapsed and the former Ascended Gods fell into darkness and began to fight each other, Anakar still chose to continue to follow Aatrox.
He did not think this was a humiliation. On the contrary, Anaca was proud to be able to follow Aatrox!
Now, how could he change his perception of Aatrox just because of a few words from Zolani?
In the yellow sand, Anaka's attacks were becoming more and more violent. As Zolani watched all this, she knew that she would not be able to persuade Anaka to give up Aatrox just by persuading him.
In this case, she had no choice but to use another method.
As expected, if you want to create a world without war and chaos, just a few words will not work at all. If you want to achieve your goal, you can only rely on blood magic to manipulate everyone!
At this time, Zolani's eyes had completely changed, becoming filled with cold murderous intent.
"Oh!"
After another collision, Anaca's figure retreated again, but on the other side, Zolani's body did not retreat as before.
After repelling Anaka, the curved-blade chainsaw in Zolani's hand flew out and rushed straight towards Anaka, and an extremely rich dark red light began to shine in Zolani's hand.
A strong fishy smell filled the space between heaven and earth, materializing as wisps of blood-red light that rushed towards Arcana's direction.
Just as the curved-blade chainsaw once again entangled Anaca's spear, Zolani's blood magic also arrived in front of Arcana.
"Uh-huh!"
Anaka's body shook violently, as if his throat was being strangled by a pair of strong hands. Then he found that the blood in his body seemed to have stopped flowing completely, and he lost control of his body!
Arcana knew that it was Zolani's blood magic.
