Chapter 497 Victory of the Death War of the Hunting Lord
Summer is coming in Freljord.
The thick clouds are like a dark gray curtain, blocking the scorching sun from coming.
The world is still immersed in a gray atmosphere, as if the summer heat has nothing to do with this place.
In front of the quiet village, snowflakes fall gently, like elves in the sky, leaving a trace of white on the gray earth.
A boy wrapped in heavy fabric was looking up at the sky, with a sad look in his eyes.
His dark pupils reflected the happy times of the past, but the cruelty of reality made it impossible for him to avoid it.
In the last summer, the village suffered a disaster due to insufficient food storage.
Many villagers lost their lives due to hunger, and their departure brought deep pain to the village.
The sad boy’s former playmate also died in the disaster, leaving him feeling extremely lonely and helpless.
The reason why he was able to survive was because before summer, he unexpectedly met an envoy from the Winter's Claw tribe and awakened his great potential.
The potential of the Beast Spirit Walker!
It is precisely because of this special potential that he is favored in life in the village.
No matter how lacking in supplies the village is, it will try its best to provide him with sufficient food and heavy fabrics.
"Teacher Udyr, why is the Freljord so cold?" The sad boy lowered his eyes and looked at the snow-capped world.
Udyr, this is the name of the messenger of the Winter's Claw tribe and the boy's master.
"Perhaps the life of the Winter's Claw tribe will be different from here?"
The sad boy closed his eyes, recalling Udyr's instructions before leaving, and felt an inexplicable expectation in his heart. .
“Nazak, when I finish my work, I will help you with training.”
“As long as you can communicate with animal spirits and get their blessings, then your The village will be protected by the Winter's Claw tribe."
"Even signing a blood oath alliance with Sejuani in the future is not an extravagant hope."
Nazak opened his childlike eyes and whispered softly: "Is it the power of the beast spirit walker?"
He looked at the summer sunshine outside the clouds, and the scattered snowflakes came towards him, and the slightest coolness brought him back to reality.
Whoo!
The biting cold wind suddenly rose, bringing dancing snowflakes and endless chill to the village.
"Nazak, don't stay outside. Come back quickly. It will be warmer in the house."
The low voice crossed the snowflakes in the sky and recalled Nazak's thoughts.
Nazak looked back and happened to see the old village chief waving to him, beckoning him to return to the house.
On the tundra and ice fields of Freljord, only sturdy houses and warm tents can withstand the cold wind.
The night falls and the cold wind sweeps through the village.
Nazak was wrapped in heavy fabrics, lay on the wooden bed, and fell into a deep sleep.
Suddenly, a subtle sound came, breaking the silent night.
Nazak immediately woke up from his deep sleep, opened his hazy eyes, and looked into the narrow window, only to see orange light flickering in the darkness.
"Huh? The village is on fire?"
Nazak's sleepiness receded instantly, and when he woke up, waves of uneasy emotions emerged, as if something ominous was about to happen.
Without enough time to put on his clothes, he hurriedly got out of bed and opened the door.
In an instant, a biting cold wind hit, carrying a strong smell of blood and pouring into the room.
Nazak stared at the scene in front of him dumbfounded, a chill rising from the soles of his feet and rushing straight into his mind.
Orange flames raged on several houses in the distance, lighting up half of the night sky.
He saw shocking blood stains scattered everywhere, as well as scattered figures lying down.
Nazak tried to look for survivors, but could only see twisted, painful, lifeless faces.
In the once-familiar village, there are now terrifying monsters that look like giant bears, slaughtering the villagers wantonly.
Da da! Ta-ta!
In the snow in front of the door, the old village chief, covered in blood, ran over quickly, picked up Nazak, who was standing there, and ran to the cellar, preparing to hide him.
Nazak is the village's only hope.
Even if the village is destroyed, as long as the beast spirit walkers escape, it will be possible to rebuild their homes afterwards.
Poof!
Warm blood spurted out and covered Nazak's face, making the sad boy stunned for a moment.
He looked at the amiable village chief in front of him with some disbelief, and then looked at the bloody claws protruding from his chest.
"Run faster, run!"
The village chief used his last strength to push Nazak away from his arms.
Then he half-knelt on the ground, loosened his hands weakly, gasped softly, and blood overflowed from his mouth and covered his clothes.
“Don’t look back!”
He said these words with difficulty, as if to tell Nazak that no matter what happens, he must move forward bravely and don’t dwell on the past.
Nazak stood stunned for a moment, his eyes full of horror and grief.
He looked deeply at the village chief who took care of him like a loving father, turned around suddenly, and was about to run out of the village.
But Nazak underestimated the cruelty and tyranny of the bear monster.
Bang!
A strong bearman monster wearing a crow feather hood strode over, pressed Nazak's neck with both hands, and stuffed him into the snow, his scarlet eyes flashing.
“Beast Spirit Walker?”
As if feeling his specialness, the bear-man monster opened its mouth, revealing its sharp teeth stained with blood.
Roar!
In the roar of excitement, the bear monsters heard the order and ran quickly. The corpses of villagers were placed in the center of the village.
In just a moment, a bloody sacrifice began hastily.
The sacrifices are all corpses in the village.
Nazak, on the other hand, collapsed in the center of the rune circle with his limbs broken.
The only thing that can move is the eyes full of hatred, looking around at the bear monsters approaching.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Amidst the calls of the bear monsters, a bloody glow lit up, and thunder and lightning appeared out of thin air above the dark sky, making a roaring sound.
The next moment!
Nazak's eyes trembled, the whites of his eyes spread all over his eyes, the corners of his mouth opened involuntarily, and his saliva flowed.
In his consciousness, a huge bear towering over the sky stood tall and roared silently, with thousands of thunders surrounding its body.
"Thunder roars, rolling thunderstorm."
"Volibear, my lord!"
Nazak murmured in a low voice, and black liquid surged from his mouth and nose. When he came out, his weak body underwent astonishing changes.
The broken limbs healed, the strong muscles were as hard as steel and burst through the clothes, and the shiny black fur covered the body.
His face is no longer young, it has become more fierce, and his eyes are shining with wild light.
After a while, Nazak became almost the same as the bear monsters he had seen, but looked more powerful.
"I long for power, my Lord, please grant me wild magic."
In the low voice of the call, Nazak reopened his eyes and staggered out of the bloody rune method. Array.
Step by step, he came to the leader of the bear-man monster and looked down at the target who was prostrate and saluted to him.
Click! Nazak smashed the head of the bear-man monster leader with all his strength, and his sharp claws disemboweled him, digging out a pile of rotten bones.
“Roar!”
Nazak coldly took off the crow feather hood of the leader of the bear-man monster and put it on his head.
Immediately afterwards, he tore off the bloody bearskin again and used it as a cloak to drape around himself.
The surrounding bear-man monsters could not resist the wild magic in Nazak's body, and could only tremble and lower their heads to express submission.
“From now on, we will guard this land with a stronger will and a wilder attitude, and respond to the call of our Lord.”
Nazak’s words rang out , intertwined with the thunder in the sky, announcing the birth of a new leader!
“The end of destiny, my lord!”
The hunting animal lord looked towards the north, and black liquid as thick as ink flowed from his eyes.
Memories of the past flashed through his mind like a lantern, like stars in a distant sky.
Nazak, his former name.
After he became the hunting lord and possessed wild magic, he swore to Volibear——
To return the Freljord to its ancient state and return to the true wild era. .
Under his sacrifice, many beast spirit walkers and Freljordians turned into bear-men one after another, strengthening the wild ancient path.
Their roar echoed across the icy tundra, their power shaking the snow.
What is most regrettable for the Hunting Lord is that he once almost eroded Udyr, the most powerful beast spirit walker, into the arms of Volibear.
But he failed in the end.
Udyr's strong will and firm belief prevented him from succeeding, and in the end he could only watch his target break free from erosion.
"Our Lord walks with us!"
The Hunting Lord was unwilling to fail and crawled along the bluestone ground with difficulty, trying to leave the Diver Fort.
Although his body was broken, his heart still firmly believed in Volibear.
Click! Click! Click! Click!
Four crisp sounds sounded, which were the sounds made by the sharp ax chopping the limbs of the hunting lord.
Kled rode Skaar to the young spirit walker and laughed contemptuously.
“My Lord? A ridiculous title, it’s just an out-of-control giant bear.”
“If you dare to reach out and touch the territory of the Noxus Empire, I dare to chop off his hand. . ”
Kled said that he was excited, and he raised the silver-gray ax in his hand, preparing to chop off the head of the hunting lord as a trophy of his action.
"General Kled, wait!"
Huo Jixing lowered his body and spoke out to stop Klie's killing.
He strolled up to the hunter lord and lifted up the tattered bearman body with one hand.
"I am somewhat interested in him. Maybe I can use his soul to find traces of Volibear."
Kled heard Volibear's name, his left eye tightened, and he looked at Huo Jixing shrugged his shoulders and stepped aside.
“Boy, don’t be careless, Volibear’s power is not simple.”
It seems that Kled doesn't care about Volibear, but as a yordle, he has long heard about the ancient gods of the north and is very afraid of them.
Especially Volibear, this guy is one of the Engravers of Freljord, mastering the power of thunder and destruction.
Huo Jixing nodded slightly, stared at the Hunting Lord in his hand, and felt the power connected to Volibear in his soul.
This is something that the giant bear of flesh and blood did not have just now.
Obviously, the hunting lord holds a very important position in the bear tribe controlled by Volibear.
Their relationship is similar to that of the Spider Queen and the Spider God.
The reason why Huo Jixing saw this was thanks to the thunder entangled in the cloud of the hunting animal lord.
Huo Jixing didn't waste any time and quickly unfolded his spiritual power, penetrating deep into the soul of the hunting lord.
In an instant!
Huo Jixing felt the struggle and pain deep in the hunter lord's soul, as well as his deep obsession with Volibear.
He closed his eyes and carefully felt the turbid soul of the Hunting Lord, trying to find traces of Volibear in it.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and everything around him became blurry and distant.
Only the soul connection between Huo Jixing and the Hunting Lord is like a slender link, slowly extending in the void, exploring towards the unknown distance.
"Haha, I finally found you!"
Huo Jixing opened his eyes, and a red-gold glow bloomed in his pupils, consuming Volibear's filthy power.
He looked to the north, and the hazy and dark sky covered all the atmosphere.
But in his eyes, Volibear's wild aura was as eye-catching as the bright moon.
The distance between the two is not very far.
The soul of the hunting animal lord automatically burned after completing his mission.
This is the fire of Nanli purifying the filth and evil in his soul, making his soul pure and flawless again.
When everything calmed down, the eyes of the hunting animal lord returned to a trace of clarity.
"Teacher Udyr!"
The Hunting Lord remembered the beautiful memories deep in his soul, but it was too late.
He sighed helplessly, and his tattered body slowly fell down, forever remaining with the land of Freljord.
Hearing the last murmur of the hunting animal lord, Huo Jixing raised his eyebrows lightly, a little surprised.
This guy was Udyr's student?
"General Kled, please take care of the affairs of Fort Diver. I will come back as soon as I go."
Huo Jixing put away his thoughts and ordered Kled.
But before leaving, he came outside the broken city wall and used the fire of Nanli to burn all the bear monsters on the snow.
"This boy"
Kled looked at the red-gold traces across the sky and muttered.
Immediately, he turned around and commanded the Noxian Scarlet Cavalry to clean up the remaining werebear monsters nearby.
At the same time, he began to contact the Varrokan family of Fort Diver, preparing to fully take over the defense of Fort Diver.
Poof!
Alyssa kicked away the dead bear monster in front of her, tried her best to pull out the curled sword, and gasped slightly.
After a long period of killing, she felt exhausted.
Fortunately, after the demise of the flesh-and-blood giant bear, the bear monsters fell into chaos and were unable to cause more damage to the Diver Fort.
Alyssa leaned against the wall. After resting for a while, she looked up at the city wall.
Compared to the battle inside the city, the battle on the city wall is the most important thing.
“Huh?”
Alyssa's eyes were astonished when she saw a crimson flag fluttering in the wind on the crumbling city wall.
The engraved golden double-edged ax seems to cut through the darkness and shed the light of hope.
"Did you hold it?"
Seeing this, Alyssa breathed a sigh of relief. She thought it was the arrival of General Kled and the Noxian Scarlet Cavalry who saved the diggers in danger. Warburg.
“There is also the extraordinary person with the terrifying ability of fire, is he the guy in the rumors?”
The scene of the giant flesh and blood bear's death appeared in Alyssa's mind, and when she looked back, Huo Jixing was nowhere to be seen.
On the contrary, I saw General Kled leading the Noxian Scarlet Cavalry to clear the battlefield.
