Chapter 414: Prophet of the Void Malzahar
Above the dome.
The dark purple taboo statue hangs like a crescent moon, casting boundless light.
Belvis's consciousness was affected and he fell into chaos. The picture he saw in his field of vision was already infected by the purple light.
But the urgency emerging from the depths of his soul told him that the sacrifice must be performed immediately.
"Believers of the Void, deal with the enemies who invaded the altar!"
The believers of the Void standing in front of Huojixing and Ezreal turned around quickly when they heard Bellvi's furious words.
The purple eyes in the hood were filled with madness and restlessness, staring at the two of them.
"Roar! Roar!"
In the empty sacrificial hall, bursts of low roars and roars like wild beasts sounded, breaking the scene of the sacrificial ceremony.
The void believers gave up their disguises and revealed their true colors, with fanatical and crazy light flashing in their eyes, and they rushed towards Huo Jixing and Ezreal.
As they ran, the glow of the purple crescent moon fell from the dome and penetrated into the bodies of the void believers, causing them to undergo mutations.
Purple light bloomed, and the flesh and blood of the void believers began to burst from the inside out.
Then, in their open wounds, strange purple tentacles sprouted like mushrooms, stretching out the linen robes on their bodies.
These tentacles are twisted and ferocious, with barbs, like the limbs of some evil creature, carrying a foul smell.
As the tentacles stretched, the bodies of the void believers completely transformed into purple monsters as they ran.
Their faces are distorted and ugly, their pupils are full of purple light, and their teeth are growing, extremely sharp and sharp.
Their limbs are covered with layers of purple scales, and they no longer have human characteristics.
“Leave these guys to me.”
Ezreal walked forward, took off his linen robe, and stared at the Void believers who were rushing over.
He moved his body slightly, and the Shurima gauntlet on his wrist lit up with the talisman's light.
【Spell power increases】!
【Secret Shooting】!
Ezreal's steps were light and he seemed to be dancing in the small sacrificial hall, rushing towards the void believers.
The Shurima Gauntlet on the arm emits a strong surge of energy, outlining a blue long bow. The bow is radiant and seems to contain endless magic power.
Ezreal held the longbow tightly, loosened his fingers, and arrows flashing with spell energy were like meteors, with a sharp sound of breaking through the air, shooting straight at the monsters transformed by the void believers.
Chichi! Chichi!
The cursed arrows easily penetrated the purple scales covering the monsters and hit their vital points.
Purple blood sprayed out, and the void monsters let out painful wails, and their bodies fell to the ground under the shooting of the secret spell.
However, these void monsters are indeed difficult to deal with. They have strong vitality. Even if they are severely damaged, they can still continue to charge forward and approach Ezreal.
In addition, their speed was staggering, and they had already surrounded their hunting target from all directions.
Facing the crazy actions of the void monsters.
Ezreal looked solemn and had to be more cautious and move his position frequently.
At the same time, he was highly concentrated and controlled the long bow outlined by the Shurima Gauntlet to shoot more cursed arrows, causing heavy damage to the void monsters.
A harsh sound broke through the air.
From the corner of his eye, Ezreal saw two void monsters running behind him, jumping down from the wall, and pounced on him.
He turned around quickly, raised his hand and shot two cursed arrows, nailing them to the wall.
It was just the slowness of the offensive that allowed the void monsters in front of them to find an opportunity and rush towards them.
[Arcane Leap]!
The space for movement in the sacrificial hall was too narrow. Ezreal looked at the void believers who rushed in front of him, and the golden light filled the air and disappeared.
And the Shurima Gauntlets automatically shoot golden arrows at the nearest void monster, hitting the head accurately.
Bang!
The purple light exploded, mixed with fresh meat and splattered on the ground.
The void monster took two steps forward and staggered to the ground.
The remaining void monsters looked at the empty place in confusion and stayed where they were.
It wasn't until the death wails of their companions sounded again that they saw Ezreal's position and reorganized their attack.
However, through the battle just now, Ezreal found a way to deal with these void monsters.
He shuttled between the walls and the high platform in the sacrificial hall, using the Shuriman Gauntlet to shoot cursed arrows to strike accurately at the void monsters.
Even though there are a large number of void monsters, they gradually fall into a dilemma before Ezreal's flexible movement and powerful super power.
Huo Jixing stood there, observing Ezreal's battle. Seeing that he had perfectly controlled the rhythm and hunted the void monsters, he stepped towards the void array in the center.
The bodies of the void monsters that were blocked along the way shattered silently, igniting red-gold flames and automatically burning up.
After a while, Huo Jixing came to the Void Array with a casual expression, holding Lingfeng in his left hand.
Belvis, the former elder of the rock village, is undergoing strange changes, similar to the believers. Purple tentacles appear around his body and slowly dance in the air.
He stood in the center of the void magic circle, ignoring Huo Jixing's arrival, his eyes full of anticipation and fanaticism.
“You can’t stop me!”
As the ancient mantra sounded, the purple light almost seemed to materialize around the magic circle.
Belvis stretched out his hands and bathed in the coming light of the void.
The bodies of the selected void believers around them slowly trembled, with painful and sacred expressions on their faces.
They continued to shout loudly into the void, and their twisted minds told them that the end of their lives was about to come.
But at the same time, you will also gain eternal life——
By sacrificing himself, he merged with the void and existed in the world.
Buzz! Buzz!
The bodies of the Void believers gradually disappeared in the purple light, and the Void magic circle injected with energy emitted a dazzling light.
“My brother.!”
Belvis’s eyes were fixed on the forbidden statue above, looking forward to Golub’s resurrection.
But in his expectant eyes, a pair of palms covered with turquoise light came into view.
Bang!
The turquoise palm pressed Belvis' head and smashed it into the void magic circle, making a dull sound.
Huo Jixing forced his way in at the critical moment when the void magic circle was performing sacrifices and suppressed the struggling Belvis,
"Disgusting guy!"
He lowered his eyes, overlooking the purple liquid flowing through Belvis, and looked directly into those crazy and angry eyes.
Belvis, who was severely injured, was twisting his body and struggling wildly. The sacrifice was still going on, and he had to continue to preside over it.
But the green palm covering his face was like a mountain, unable to bear down on him.
"Ah! Ahhh!"
A low roar sounded, and the purple energy in Belvis's body burst out, destroying the human form.
The skin cracked quietly, and countless purple tentacles extended out from the cracks, dancing wildly like purple vines.
Belvis's face has completely lost its human seriousness and calmness, and has become ferocious and ugly.
His human form has been eroded by the void and he has become a void creature that has broken free from its constraints.
Belvis roared, his purple eyes looking directly at Huo Jixing through the gaps between his fingers, his murderous intent unconcealable, cold to the bone.
Chichi! Chichi!
As if receiving mysterious orders, the tentacles dancing around him suddenly became straight and sharp, like sharp flying needles. With a harsh sound of breaking through the air, they stabbed at Huojixing at an alarming speed.
Boom!
Huo Jixing remained motionless, and the red-gold flames in his pupils burned fiercely. Under the energy of Donghua Yimu, they exploded instantly, like a fire storm, sweeping through the void magic circle.
Before those piercing purple tentacles came close to him, they were turned into ashes under the burning fire of Nanli and scattered in the magic circle.
The ripple-like purple light also disappeared in large areas as the Nanli Fire burned, reappearing its original appearance.
"What about your power!"
Belovis, who was confused and confused, had a flash of clarity under the scorching flames.
He looked at Huo Jixing, his face full of disbelief. The power of the void could not have any impact on him.
Also in a brief state of sobriety, Belvis' eyes fell on the taboo statue hanging above, and the expectation in his heart turned into anger.
"Why...why not resurrected?"
He opened his mouth full of sharp teeth and asked painfully.
The ten believers who just sacrificed themselves have met the requirements of the forbidden statue, but Golub in his memory has not been resurrected.
“You lied to me, prophet.!”
In the empty magic circle, only the fire of Nanli was burning. Belvis’s struggling movement stopped completely, and there was no trace of blood in the cracked skin. There are no more tentacles extending.
He was like a discarded piece of trash, slowly disappearing in the red-gold flames.
Huo Jixing got up and after dealing with Belvis, there was one more thing that needed to be dealt with.
He looked up at the taboo statue above, and his face was covered with a dense glow, making it difficult to see his true face.
But he noticed something quietly resurrecting inside the statue.
“Resurrection? Who wants to be resurrected?”
Huo Jixing frowned, held the hilt of the sword with his right hand, and slowly drew out the spirit wind.
There is a surge of magical energy in this purple statue. After erasing the contents, it can be handed over to the data panel for decomposition.
Clang!
The red bird crows and the sword shines sharply.
The fire of Nanli rolled upwards, turning into a red bird spreading its flaming wings, and flew straight towards the hanging taboo statue.
Bang!
Just when the sword light fell and Suzaku lowered his head, a layer of dark purple light shield suddenly appeared on the surface of the forbidden statue, resisting the attack.
It was precisely because of this attack that the recovery inside the statue was completed, and a slender figure outlined by purple light appeared out of thin air.
“Who is it?”
The relaxed look on Huo Jixing’s face slowly faded away, and a hint of solemnity emerged.
He stared at the resurrected slender figure and felt the inexplicable danger coming.
After Ezreal had finished dealing with all the Void believers, he came to Huo Jixing, and the Shurima gauntlet on his wrist flashed with dazzling light.
Belvis' residence.
Elder Faisal and the two Ixtar mages were searching for things in the room, and the ground was in a mess.
The house was full of green plants, covering the walls and bookshelves, making the two Ixtar mages feel like they were in a familiar forest.
After the fall of the Shurima Empire, Ixtal chose to live in isolation in the forest and spent thousands of years alone.
They had witnessed the destruction of Blessed Light Island and the subsequent Rune Wars from afar.
Since then, they have regarded other ethnic groups in Runeterra as upstarts and coveters, and are determined to use their powerful magic to keep them out.
But the forgotten land of Icacia is a haze that cannot be erased from their hearts.
When the void creatures reappeared, Ixoken immediately sent a powerful natural mage to this rocky village to monitor the forgotten land.
"What's going on with these natural plants?"
Elder Faisal stared at the withered plants in front of him, doubts flashing across his old face.
Not only in this place, but also in Belvis's bedroom, similar phenomena frequently occurred.
“He may want to use the power of nature to resist the erosion of the void.”
The middle-aged Master Ixtal looked at the withered plants in the flower pot and said in a solemn voice.
"Natural force? Void erosion?" Elder Feisal looked gloomy.
"Belvis once asked me if there was any way to slow down the erosion of the void."
The middle-aged Master Ixtal looked around the scene in the bedroom, becoming more and more certain of his inner thoughts. .
"I was a little surprised at the time. Why did Belvis ask like this? The answer he gave was to be prepared in advance."
"I taught him some methods, including using natural power to resist the void. .”
"But the power of the void is unimaginable by mortals. The power of nature can only protect the inner spirit, but cannot resist the power of the void to distort the mind."
"Now it seems that he is not taking precautions in advance at all, but He himself suffered from the erosion of the void."
Elder Faisal was just about to continue speaking, but he noticed strong fluctuations of magical energy coming from below the ground.
Everyone in the bedroom looked at each other with solemn expressions. Before they could speak, there was another noise outside.
Elder Faisal hurriedly walked outside the house and saw the oasis tower outside the village, which was lit with flames.
"Someone is invading?"
"No, no, it's not a human, it's a void creature!"
The middle-aged Master Yixtal frowned slightly, as if he had gained insight into something, and his expression changed with surprise. .
"The magic trap I set outside the oasis sent an alarm, and a void creature was approaching."
"Then what should we do now?" Elder Feisal hesitated.
There was a wave of magical energy coming from below Belvis's residence, and there should be a battle taking place.
At the same time, the rock village was attacked by void creatures, and alarms were raised.
There is no longer any doubt. It is certain that Belvis is a betrayer and has fallen into the embrace of the void.
“Deal with Belvis first, otherwise we will fall into a situation of being attacked from both sides.”
The middle-aged Master Ixtal looked at the hesitant Elder Feisal and gave his own suggestions .
"Well, we can only hope that Xhamala can resist for a while."
Elder Faisal understood that time was running out, so he no longer hesitated and returned to the bedroom, preparing to find the secret passage.
Click!
As soon as Elder Faisal returned, the ground shook violently and cracks were everywhere.
Faintly, dim purple light and red-gold flames can be seen intertwining underground.
