Embers after the war

It was already dark, but the stars and the moon were bright.

When Riven rushed to the battlefield, the place was already in ruins.

The flames of Bixu Chi swept over here, and the Navoli Brotherhood did not have any weapons and equipment that could fight against a giant dragon. The artillery they brought was specially designed for siege, and even the shells were wiped out by the white flames before they could be reloaded. .

In the past, even the mighty Noxus regular army was wiped out because of angering a dragon, let alone a motley army with insufficient equipment.

Riven stepped on the hot sand burned by the white flames, and there were scorched corpses and thick smoke everywhere, which made her eyes choke.

She wanted to vomit, but she beat her chest hard to suppress the nausea.

“Fall!” Riven shouted, “Where are you?”

Section 157

No one responded, only a few ravens pecking at the corpse were looking at her.

Riven felt that she was going to be unable to hold on anymore, the longer she stayed here, the more she felt weak in her limbs, as if she would fall at any time.

She thought she wouldn’t feel so uncomfortable. Those who died here were all members of the Navoli Brotherhood. They deserved to die, so she should applaud.

But when the pungent smell of burnt flesh reached her nose, her heart still felt like a heavy hammer had been hit.

“Calm down.” Riven dragged the great rune sword in one hand, pinched her upper arm fiercely with the other hand, forced herself to stay awake, and kept reminding herself, “This is not there…this is not there…here Not there…”

Riwen saw a deep pit in the distance, such a big pit could only have been made by Bixu Chi, she hurried over.

But the scene below the deep pit is still the same, with corpses strewn all over the field and wreckage all over the ground.

I can’t find him anywhere.

Or, he has already turned into one of the countless charred corpses.

Riwen didn’t dare to think about it. When she was guarding the mansion, Luo was actually seriously injured, and her hope of surviving was extremely slim.

“Why…he wants to push me down…” Riven stared blankly at the deep pit, the last words Luo said to her were still echoing in her ears.

Finally, she couldn’t bear it anymore.

She vomited wildly.

The great rune sword in her hand was thrown aside by her, and without the order of the master’s will, the great rune sword fell apart again and fell into pieces.

Riven felt as if she was about to vomit her soul out, a deep exhaustion welled up from the depths of her body, and pressed her to the ground, not wanting to move a finger.

“I killed another one…” Riven closed her eyes tightly, she knew that it wasn’t exhaustion that weighed her down, but guilt.

Most importantly, she didn’t know how to atone for her sin.

She turned her head and looked at Suli Town behind the thick smoke. The town was intact.

She should be happy, Riven thought.

But she just lay on the ground, letting the hot sand burn her body.

The sound of the carrion ravens pecking at the corpse was still heard, and they quacked at Riven from time to time, as if they were pitying her.

It seemed to be mocking her.

The thin man’s complexion was very ugly.

The strong man stood beside him, so frightened by the tragedy of the Brotherhood’s annihilation in the distance, he couldn’t speak clearly: “What… what should I do?”

“What do you say! There is no way!” The thin man slapped the strong man angrily, “Why did Bixu Chi launch an attack!”He was angry and thankful, fortunately, his duty this time was only to escort that man, and he didn’t need to go to the battlefield, otherwise he would have become ashes there.

The strong man touched his face in a daze, unable to speak.

The thin man sighed: “How can it be so unlucky, the spirit of nature, which has always ignored human affairs, is targeting us overwhelmingly…”

The strong man swallowed his saliva: “Didn’t we know from the beginning that there was someone in Suli Town who could summon Bixu Chi, and that’s why we asked that guy to assassinate him?”

“Need to talk! That trash failed!” the skinny man cursed, “I really don’t know why the leader values ​​him so much, he has a fart…”

His words got stuck.

The lean man saw that the tall and thin man was standing beside him.

“What do I have?” He asked calmly.

“You!” The thin man said angrily, “You still have the face to come back!”

He looked at the skinny man as if he were looking at an ignorant child: “Is it an assassin from the fraternity you sent?”

“Yes, so what!” The lean man overflowed with magical energy and sneered, “If you have any dissatisfaction, you can tell me!”

He just looked at the lean man, very calm, with even breathing and steady heartbeat.

Suddenly, the thin man’s shape changed.

The thin man found himself unable to move, and the person in front of him stretched out his hand to him.

The lean man’s spine was torn and twisted like a hemp rope, and the severe pain extended from his tailbone to his neck bone.

All this happened too quickly. When the lean man realized the pain, he was already lying on the ground like a puddle of mud, dying with regret.

The strong man was so frightened that he couldn’t speak. He watched clearly what the man did to the thin man.

He stabbed out a few silver needles, and he didn’t know where he got them from. Just relying on these few needles to pierce the thin man, making him unable to move. The thin man could only watch helplessly as he stretched out his slender fingers, twisting his skeleton like a toy.

He killed a mage with his bare hands.

“Four.” He said softly, then turned to look at the strong man, “Please take me back to prison, do you need to handcuff me?”

The strong man turned his back on him, but he fainted from fright.

“Hmm…” He pondered, “It seems that we can only wait for him to wake up, I can’t find the way back…”

He stood where he was, recalling today’s play.

The beginning, development, and climax all went smoothly.

Only the ending didn’t make him feel perfect.

He looked down at the lump of rotten flesh at his feet. Of course, this guy wasn’t the best choice for the ending, but he could only make do with it.

He recalled that black-haired young man, but even his fatal blow didn’t make him bloom.

“It’s really… very interesting…” He smiled slightly, feeling the sharp pain from his arm that had been crushed to the bone. “I need a stronger weapon… a weapon that can make him bloom…”

He began to look forward to the next meeting.

Although he didn’t even know who that young man was, he knew that they would meet again.

This is drama.

A murmur sounded from under his feet. It was a lean man who was already dying.

The thin man stared at him unwillingly and in fear, his eyeballs were about to roll out of their sockets, and he uttered hoarse last words: “Jin…”

“You reminded me, I still have something in your place…” He squatted down, searching for the things on the lean man.

Finally, he took out a mask.

He wiped his face lightly with his hands to remove the sebum and wax oil used for disguise, and then put the mask on.

Gold Devil.

This is a horror legend that spread throughout Ionia three years ago. According to legend, there is a monster in the mountains of southern Ionia, which slaughtered brigades, farms and even militias. The locals called it the Golden Demon.

Later, because no evidence of the existence of the Golden Demon was found for a long time, murders did happen all the time. The Zhiyun Provincial Council had no choice but to ask the head of the Kinkou sect, saying bitterly that the master would step in.

Master Ku said that he successfully captured the Golden Demon. The so-called Golden Demon is actually not a monster, but a person.

He is a member of a local theater troupe, and his real name is Kada Jhin.
