Chapter 501: Thunderbolt's First Blow
In Lissandra's dream vision.
In the middle of the mountainside and at the foot of the mountain surrounding Thunder, there are many beast spirit walkers and bear monsters gathered in front of the mountain to worship.
To be precise, it is the figure of the thundering giant bear behind the clouds on the top of the mountain.
Just when the lightning struck down, leaving a few thunder spots, the beast spirit walkers kneeling on the ground showed twisted expressions.
They looked up to the sky and howled, using their sharp claws to cut open their bodies. One half was in the form of a giant bear, and the other half was a twisted form of black liquid.
These are no longer any creatures that exist in the continent of Valoran, and most of their consciousness begins to belong to the void.
Now, these beast spirit walkers are using their bodies as sacrifices to awaken the gods they revered——
Immortal Crazy Thunder Volibear!
Boom!
Thunder and lightning broke through the clouds, making a low roar. Countless pairs of eyes flashed in the storm, their pupils filled with killing and desire.
Immediately afterwards, countless thunder and lightning intertwined, slashing the ice and snow basin like thousands of sharp blades, leaving behind scorched thunder spots.
The wild aura belonging to Volibear began to revive, mixed with madness and confusion.
“Your time has passed!”
Lissandra, hidden in the dream, was keenly aware of Volibear’s abnormal state, which was the erosion caused by the power of the void. Effect.
"You can't stop the void, just like I used to be."
Thousands of years ago, Lissandra, who lost her vision, chose to walk in a dream.
At that time, she could intermittently see the vision of others through their eyes.
However, through an accidental discovery, she realized that only she could see the dark abyss beneath the Frostguard Fortress and its true appearance.
Howling Abyss!
This is the lingering abyss in Lissandra's memory, and it also means infinite.
It is death, dangerous but also full of potential.
Lissandra secretly communicated with those near-god spirits without telling the sisters, and made a deal with them in the name of the three sisters——
The monitors will give They are close to immortal power, and it's up to them to prepare Runeterra for the coming of the Void.
Because of this, Lissandra gained unprecedented power, even more than her two sisters.
But how could the void grant power for no reason and without asking for anything in return?
It was promised by Lissandra that it could come to this mortal world in the far north of Freljor.
However, no one expected that Lissandra would break her promise at the last moment when the void descended.
Because once the Void descends, the evidence of her secret collusion with the Monitors will become conclusive.
Faced with the final choice of fate, Lissandra had to give up what she held most dear.
She sacrificed her sisters and the clan of blood they gathered, burying the Watchers beneath the barrier of the glacier.
The magic ice here will never melt.
But Lissandra soon discovered that even the Freljord's ice power was not enough.
The frozen monsters are just sleeping, but their void power gradually pollutes the ice around them, turning it into something darker.
Now they can easily wander into Lissandra's dreams, and she can just as easily enter theirs.
Each time, Lissandra would surrender to the eternity they promised in her dreams, and each time she would wake up in panic.
She understands that Zhen Bing can only temporarily delay the final fate of all things in the world.
She must have more power to look directly at the monitors who are about to wake up.
The many terrifying monsters in this ice and snow basin are the results of her experiments.
“It just so happened that the protoss geniuses from the Noxus Empire came here.”
Lissandra looked at Huo Jixing, which was approaching the central mountain, with anticipation rising in her heart.
"Show me how far the Void has taken hold of you, Volibear."
Mountain Dome, the center of the Eye of Thunderstorm.
Deep in the quiet clouds, the thundering bear-like spirit trembled gently in his sleep, but his eyes were still closed.
It can be seen that there is strong dark power in the thunder surrounding him, and from time to time there will be a flash of deep purple light.
"Valhall!"
Suddenly, deep in the sea of soul consciousness of the Thunder Bear, an ancient name rang out.
It had been a long time since he had been called out, and he had forgotten how long it had been, but what he heard now must be a dream.
Or maybe it’s a distant memory.
The Thunder Bear twitched its nose, let out a dull snore, buried its head deeper into the clouds, and continued his long-lasting sleep.
"Valhall, with your name and this blood, I call you!"
The eyes of the thunder bear suddenly opened, and coldness and cruelty cut across the clouds.
The voice in his ear seemed far away, but he heard it very clearly, as if it was near him.
"They are my believers, they are seeking the power of wild magic."
The Thunder Giant Bear roared, smelling the familiar smell of blood tribute, and a tremor spread throughout his body.
It had been a long time since he had tasted the taste of sacrifices and tributes.
For thousands of years, many sacrificial formations in his name have appeared in the ice and frozen soil, but it is very rare to call him so strongly.
He could feel the majestic power of worship pouring into his limbs through the ritual circle.
"Valhall! We call upon your wrath! Give us strength! Every death is a tribute!"
Valhall's heart fills with the thought of the battles, killings and worship that may come , beating violently.
The carnage in the distant lands made his heart beat loudly, and he could hear footsteps, the sound of fire, and the cries of death.
Someone is slaughtering his followers.
Roar!
Volibear stood with his feet in the sky and roared at the sky and the earth.
The sound of ringing clouds echoed on the icy tundra, shaking every creature in the ice and snow basin.
It's calling to the skin in which he came to this world.
It was calling to his separate consciousnesses.
For a moment, the cold clouds trembled, the space wailed, and dense thunder and lightning filled the heaven and earth.
“Wait, this is not my power!”
Volibear, who was enjoying the return of his power, suddenly changed his expression.
In addition to the power of thunder and destruction, there is an unknown power in his body.
Volibear lowered his eyes and instantly saw the dark power surrounding his body, which was bone-chilling.
“It’s you.!”
Volibear, who was in a state of recovery, instantly noticed a familiar aura.
He immediately separated his own incarnation.
Frost Witch Lissandra!
In the dream of his believer, Volibear saw his defeated general, who was also the culprit who caused him to fall into a deep sleep.
He was furious, and when he was about to attack Lissandra, the dark power poured into his body actually approached the depths of his soul, trying to corrode him.
“Get out of my body!”
As an ancient god, how could Volibear endure someone stealing his body?
He waved his thunder claws to destroy the cold dark power, and the strong wind howled and blew through his thick hair. "Huh? Something's wrong, this power"
After a simple exchange, Volibear realized that something was unusual.
The essence of this dark force is no less than the power of thunder and destruction, and even more destructive.
Most importantly, it can corrode the soul and distort consciousness.
After Volibear took back many of his incarnation consciousnesses, this dark force merged with him like gangrene in his bones.
“In the past, the cruel and long black sleep did not defeat me. Does this little power want to end me?”
After coming back to his senses, Volibear said to Li in the dream Sandra, roaring lowly.
His war fury turned into storm clouds in the sky, with thunder and lightning, suppressing the dark power and retreating step by step.
“I am the first thunder, Valhall, the destruction of hundreds of mountains”
Before Volibear could finish his words, many chaotic voices suddenly sounded in his mind.
"Valhall! We kill in your name, we die in your name!"
It is the voice of the believers.
Their voices gathered together, pouring into Volibear's consciousness like an endless ocean.
Caught off guard, under the joint attack of the two, his consciousness gradually became confused.
The primal desire to kill dominates, as well as awe and devotion to the void.
“It’s Lissandra!”
On the verge of losing control, Volibear suddenly thought of Lissandra who appeared in the spirit walker’s consciousness.
He instantly understood who was the manipulator behind all this, and an inexplicable anger and helplessness emerged in his heart.
I originally thought that my recovery would be an opportunity to regain freedom and new life, but I did not expect that it would become a prison in which I was buried.
This made him, as a god, feel extremely ironic.
Roar!
As the final roar sounded, Volibear seemed to be venting all his power.
The many compound eyes on his body lit up with a crimson glow, filled with endless pain and struggle.
At the same time, the scene of Huo Jixing massacring his followers appeared in his mind.
This is Lissandra using her dream power to inject the modified memory of the Beast Spirit Walker into Volibel's consciousness.
She tried to manipulate Volibear in this way and make him her plaything.
But Lissandra doesn't need to do this at all.
When Volibear took back many of his conscious clones.
The scene of Huo Jixing slaughtering the bear monsters and destroying the sacrificial circle had already appeared clearly before his eyes.
These scenes were like sharp blades piercing Volibear's heart, making him furious and vowing to declare his return with Huo Jixing's flesh and blood.
Boom!
With a stone-shattering impact, Volibear, carrying thunder and lightning, descended from the top of the clouds and smashed down the mountain.
However, Volibear, who was eroded by the void at this moment, was no longer roaring with thunder, and was no longer Valhall.
Deep purple strange lightning jumped around his pitch black fur, and the destructive power of thunder mixed with the cold void breath broke through the sky.
He stared at the ice and snow basin in front of him, looked further along the canyon, and noticed Huo Jixing walking towards him.
"Humans, welcome the punishment of thunder!"
Volibear's dangerous low roar came from deeper within Volibear's body, full of violence and anger.
He strode forward, thunder wrapped around his body, like an ancient armor.
【Thunderbolt】!
As his anger surged, Volibear's will was overwhelmed by distortion and chaos. Many lightnings surged in the designated area, slamming into Huojixing.
"Everything will eventually collapse!" He roared at Huo Jixing in the distance.
Clang!
Nanli Suzaku raised his head, and the red-gold flame wings rolled up, setting off a terrifying wave of fire, facing the sky full of lightning.
In a flash!
Lightning and flames clashed wildly, like two ancient behemoths fighting between heaven and earth.
The dim ice and snow basin also lit up, reflecting the scene of rugged mountains.
Many bear monsters looked at the coming Volibear. Regardless of the danger on the battlefield, they knelt on the ground and sang loudly.
Huo Jixing stopped, stared at Volibear rushing over, and pulled out the spiritual wind from his waist.
He noticed something was wrong with Volibear's state. In addition to the power of thunder and destruction, there was also the aura of void.
"It's really affected by the void!"
Kaka! Kaka! Kaka!
Thunder and lightning split the space, and the red-gold flames on Nanli Suzaku's body rippled, revealing an elegant and majestic body.
Seeing this, Volibear stepped forward and summoned lightning, carrying the power of destruction and the power of the void, covering the battlefield.
Under the control of Huo Jixing's consciousness, Nanli Suzaku did not show weakness, and the dim Nanli fire rekindled, igniting the surrounding air.
Immediately afterwards, the dancing wings were like the most brilliant clouds in the sky. Every time they flapped, they carried the fire of Nanli, cutting through the thunderous clouds, leaving behind a dazzling trail.
【One blow】!
Volibear ignored the high temperature of Nanli Fire, surrounded his claws with all the thunder and lightning, and beat Nanli Suzaku brazenly.
Wow!
The red-gold flame burned through the lightning, igniting the black fur and leaving traces of charred flesh.
Volibear's sharp claws also cut through the heavy flames, leaving claw marks on Nanli Suzaku's body.
Thousands of scars, so what’s the point of having one more!
Volibear roared angrily, resisting the damage caused by Nanli's fire.
He wanted to kill the birds formed by the power of the stars in front of him, and then kill Huo Jixing behind him.
Thunder claws and flame wings clashed, Volibear pressed forward step by step, setting off a storm of destruction in the ice and snow basin.
Although the resurrected Volibear was affected by the void to a certain extent, his strength has already reached the level of a god.
Even if Nanli Suzaku goes all out, each flaming feather contains the terrifying essence of Nanli's fire, shining with a dazzling sacred light.
But he also fell into the disadvantage, stirring up the starting point of flames and sparks.
Huo Jixing no longer hesitated, looked at the thunder and lightning all over the sky, and stepped lightly.
Roar!
Behind him, the Gengjin White Tiger appeared, staring at Volibear who was very close with his cold eyes.
In an instant, the soaring fighting spirit merged into the spiritual wind in his hand.
Huo Jixing waved quietly, chopping up the thunder and lightning silently.
Volibear, who was suppressing Nanli Suzaku, smelled the danger and, driven by his wild instinct, raised his arms to block his eyes.
Poof!
Cloud patterns flashed, and the sword light fell.
On the Thunder Armor, a black liquid bloomed, and deep bone scars appeared on the wrist.
Perhaps stimulated by pain, Volibear's eyes became slightly clear, but before he could react, he fell into chaos again.
“Kill!”
“Born in the wilderness!”
"Hunting! Slaughtering! Killing!"
