Transforming American comics starts with a leap of faith

Chapter 181 Desert Death God
"Ah, it's a day in the life of a human being!"

The most precious thing in the desert, of course, is fresh water, and the most luxurious thing, of course, is to take a bath...

But there is magic in this world, and some things that were originally irrational just happened so naturally.

At the entrance of the only bathhouse in the town, Dante was wearing his coat sullenly, his strong muscles could be seen from his open chest, as if he couldn't restrain the pleasure of washing away the dust, he stretched himself facing the sun.

A handsome young man with white hair, shining in the light.

Naturally, it attracted the attention of many people.

He supported the pillar next to him, made a handsome appearance, and frantically fired at the girls who came and went, attracting bursts of inexplicable smiles.

There is no shyness, and the daughters of the desert are passionate.

Of course, as children of the desert, they can't expect their skin to be... how fair and delicate.But the provocative eyebrows and charming face are not inferior to the girls elsewhere.

Especially the thighs exposed while walking... That line looks very strong, completely different from the extravagant and flashy style of the Big Apple City.

No wonder Mr. Ji Xianlin Ji was so obsessed with this when he was a student. One or two is nothing. When the strong thighs of girls form a certain scale in number, there is indeed a kind of primitive shock.

Young men have a common language in this regard.

No, hobbies in this area have nothing to do with age.

Dante showed a slight smile, from temperament to image, he was very prodigal.

This is probably the benefit of human design.

The clown can't do this kind of thing. It doesn't mean that Joker is not close to women. His mind should be on... things that are more in line with his identity.

Not to mention Kratos, that tough style implements a sense of responsibility, but you can't do whatever you want, if you are tempted by someone... it would be embarrassing.

Dante is different. As a demon hunter who wanders on the edge of life and death all year round, it is perfectly normal to adjust his spare time and be a romantic little white dragon!

Well, it's all for the sake of personality.

With a creak, the door behind him opened, and Steve Rogers came out.

Immediately, the eyes of the girls looking here became more and more bold.

It's a pity that the captain is an old-fashioned person who only has tasks in his eyes.

"When are we leaving?"

Dante rolled his eyes, with a disappointed expression on his face, he hummed and said:

"Let's resupply, the next inhabited place... I don't know where it is yet."

……

As the saying goes, looking at the mountain and running a dead horse, the eyes can see the majestic mountain peak, but with the foot strength of the crystal pioneer, after walking for two full days, no one feels that they are closer to the giant mountain.

That mountain seems to never reach the skyline.

And this morning, they saw the small town from a distance. To avoid panic or covetous people, Crystal Pioneer naturally stayed outside the small town, while they went in to get some repairs.

The big men are okay, but although Natasha has never talked about it, everyone knows that this girl needs some private time.

Anyway, it won't take too long.

In the past two days, except for a short period of time in the afternoon, Su Ge will cut out to interact with Loki friendly. At other times, most of his energy is put on the body of the avatar Dante.

It's not because there is nothing to do outside, on the contrary, if you want to talk to "clowns" and do things, you can catch a lot of them.

There is of course a reason for focusing here.

At Soang Sasha Falls, Icarus discovered something remarkable.

Speaking of which, I have to thank Icarus, the condor. His third eye is now responsible for opening the map, and the maximum radius of the patrol has exceeded a thousand kilometers.

Can avoid a lot of trouble for them.

For example, small thieves like Sand Pirates, although they can't threaten Dante and others, they still feel disgusting if they stick to them for nothing.

More importantly, some quicksand traps.

In the Shurima Desert, there are often some geological changes due to fluctuations in the elements. The crystal pioneers who have walked here for many years have been pitted by nature more than once.

And Steve and others, after being surprised by Dante's occasional prophets, accepted this setting.

Starting again, there are many things to bring, but the main thing is fresh water.

Among the five people in this group, Natasha, Steve, and Jhin couldn't stay out of the water for a long time, while Logan and Dante, although they could rely on their physique to fight hard, but if they really lacked water, the experience would be very bad.

Fortunately, Skarner's load-bearing capacity is exaggerated enough. This time, they brought enough water for two months.

On Skarner's back, the completely new Natasha smiled sweetly and asked:

"Do you want to go to that sand waterfall to hunt for treasure?"

Dante: "No, I don't have the slightest interest in the garbage buried under the sand."

"What's that for?"

The demon simply lay on his back on Skarner's chubby back, and said lazily:
"Don't keep asking questions. Did you get any news during your trip?"

Natasha was amused. Out of professional habits, she did inquire about some information.

Shurima has many vassal states. After the destruction of the imperial capital, most of the small states declared their independence. After thousands of years of chaotic wars, they have long since changed beyond recognition.

The small town they had just left came from a certain small country, backed by Soonsa with a long history, and its development was not bad, but their relatively stable environment was also related to a legend.

Natasha: "It is said that there is a god, oh, the god that this country believes in. He has lived here before the sun rises, which symbolizes the reincarnation of all things, and has wiped out this land. invaders of the land."

The captain chimed in, looking interested.

"Sounds like some sort of primitive cult."

Natasha nodded: "Well, but this world is very weird, it's hard to say what their beliefs... are from."

Dante: "Did you ask the name of that god?"

"I asked." Natasha frowned slightly when she said this: "But they didn't ask, they just said that they can't call the god of death directly."

"Tsk, time really will erase everything... The truth is already beyond recognition."

Skarner stopped suddenly.

Natasha wanted to ask Dante if he knew something, but she still looked forward under the influence of inertia.

She opened her eyes slightly, moved her lips, and uttered a short and low syllable:

"Wow!"

Skarner went up a steep slope, and the stunning view of Shurima came into everyone's eyes.

Even Jhin and Logan, who barely spoke along the way, exclaimed in low voices.

Dante tried his best, sat up with a whoosh, and saw Suoang Sasha Waterfall.

Let's put it this way, it's roughly equivalent to...a hundred and ten Niagara Falls connected together, and the water is replaced by sand.

The width is dozens of kilometers, and the drop exceeds 500 meters.The yellow sand of unknown origin has flowed quietly for tens of thousands of years, but it has not filled the deep valley.

The design of Soang Sasha Waterfall should refer to the Great Rift Valley in East Africa known as the Scar of the Earth, and with a little artistic exaggeration, it has created such an unimaginable scenery.

It's really shocking to see it with your own eyes.

Dante patted the Crystal Pioneer under him, and made it go west along the edge of the deep valley.

Several people quickly came back to their senses.

They only brought professional equipment with them on this trip, after all, they were not here for vacation, and the black widow quietly felt a pity.

This kind of scenery should be photographed.

Captain: "Dante, you seem to know something about that god of death."

The white-haired demon first patted Natasha and said, "Use a spy camera to make do."

The latter suddenly realized and flipped things over.

Dante: "Desert Death God Nasus, the last batch of Ascendants in Shurima, is also one of the best Ascendants of all time."

Logan frowned: "What Ascendor helicopter, I've heard this word many times, can you explain it?"

"Let's put it this way, the weakest Ascendant can single-handedly level Los Angeles."

"..."

Logan was silent for a while: "Well, that's really fierce."

It is indeed not an easy task to hold back the cold gasp.

Captain: "Tell me the truth about Nasus."

Natasha withdrew her gaze from looking at the scenery, turned to Dante's side, and showed a face of listening to the story.

"Ah, it's a long story, let me make a long story short."

"After the Icathian War, oh, after the Void Invasion, the older generation..."

At the beginning of the story, he was interrupted by the captain:

Steve's eyes lit up: "Has the void invaded this world?"

Dante seemed to be stunned, and asked with a shocked face: "Did no one tell you?"

Steve and Natasha looked at each other and shook their heads with certainty.

"Wow, you guys were really eaten to death by clowns!"

The demon made a gesture of sympathy, and then said:
"Don't dream anymore. The Earth couldn't learn the methods of this world at that time... In short, after the disaster, the Ascended suffered heavy casualties, and the remaining ones withdrew from the front line due to various reasons, and Nasus, since then Among the promoted Ascendants, the most powerful one."

Natasha rested her chin, her body swayed, her posture was swaying, and she set up a stage for face:

"and after?"

"Before that, you guys look at that first."

Dante pointed forward.

It is a statue about 18 meters high. From a distance, there are two erected ears on the top of him.

The carved helmet covered his head, as well as part of his chest and back. In appearance, it was a bit like the pharaoh's costume in Egyptian civilization, revealing a face...it was actually a dog's face.

Logan bared his teeth.

In the hand of the god statue, there is also a scepter of the same height. Although the physique looks relatively slender, it shows a good sense of strength.

When you get closer, you can observe the pitted and heavily weathered black surface of the statue.

Natasha said very professionally: "It must have a history of nearly 2000 years."

Dante laughed: "Don't believe me, before and after he became an Ascended, he served as the curator of the Shurima National Library. For hundreds of years, he has always been the emperor's teacher... In other words, Nesser Si is also a man of culture."

Captain: "You still haven't told the so-called truth."

"Oh yes, then continue with the topic just now."

Dante suddenly realized: "Later, Xerath rebelled, and Azir died... The imperial capital was destroyed by the rampant astral energy."

A gust of wind blew away some of the accumulated sand on the top of the statue of Nasus.

Skarner's pincers clamped, and the hexapod sank into the ground.

"In the ruined imperial capital, Nasus and his younger brother Renekton fought a decisive battle with Xerath."

The wind seemed to be getting stronger, and Natasha's fingertips lit up with a blue light. Steve tried the shield in his hand, and Wolverine's claws stretched out, trimming the white hair under his jaw.

And Jhin shrunk even tighter...

Dante laughed even more recklessly: "They couldn't destroy, and they couldn't even imprison Xerath. In the end, Renekton dragged the enemy into the Tomb of the Immortals, and used the eternal seal there to kill Xerath, who had become an energy life form. Si, locked there forever."

Natasha looked at her inch-long claws, and asked seemingly unintentionally: "From what you said, Renekton seems to have sacrificed himself."

"Well, one person had to immobilize Xerath at the time, and the other person could activate the seal."

Natasha smiled: "Hehe, but why, it's not the elder brother, but the younger brother who was imprisoned there?"

Dante also smiled, and said, "Who knows? Maybe, the younger brother loves the older brother a little more...I don't know how thousands of years have passed, but Nasus still remembers that before the tomb door closed, Renekton didn't The gaze of She, as the elder brother of the god of death, did you ever shed tears for the sacrifice of your own brother."

Kakaka.

The sand that had been deposited on the outside of the statue for thousands of years suddenly cracked at this moment, and the first one to be free was Nasus' right hand holding the scepter.

A large piece of skin fell off his arms, shoulders, chest and abdomen, and fell to the ground and shattered into powder. The scepter he swung, whipped up a howling wind, and slammed into Dante.

Skarner, who had been prepared for a long time, jumped and avoided the blow.

A group of five people jumped out of the car in mid-air, and each landed in a fighting posture.

The scepter slammed on the base of the statue, the dust fell off, and the brilliance that had been buried, finally shone under the sunshine of Shurima after a thousand years.

Nasus opened his mouth and let out a breath, accompanied by white smoke and quicksand.

He took off his helmet, then swung his body like a real dog, and in just 20 seconds he was completely new.

Putting on the cleaned helmet, the golden armor shone with the brilliance of an ascended person.A dangerous red light flashed in Nasus' narrowed eyes, and his voice, which had not spoken for many years, was hoarse:

"It's a disaster for you to provoke me."

Unlike his teammate, who is facing a big enemy, threatening Nasus, Dante is not panicked at all:

"Tsk, I thought you were dead..."

Nasus was breathing loudly, obviously emotionally unstable.

If it weren't for this white-haired bastard, who was too irritating, he might never have come back to life.

He did intend, for the rest of his life, to stand here as a statue, as the last glory of Shurima, until his endless life was spent as a kind of prison for himself.

In fact, it doesn't make much sense, but it can make him feel a little bit better in his heart that has suffered a lot.

Nasus: "Are you a darkborn? No wonder you know so much about that period of history... But, I don't remember a senior who deserves to be beaten like you."

Dante: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not a darkborn... But you said I deserved a beating, but you reminded me that we really should have a fight."

The captain behind him sighed, and began to seriously think about what angle he should use to fight against such a large enemy.

After all, the Desert Reaper is a civil servant, and quite elegant:

"I will not kill my enemies to vent my anger."

"It's okay, you can't help but come and attack me."

Dante drew out the great sword behind him and pointed at Nasus: "Because I want to open the gate of the Tomb of the Immortal!"
