Reincarnation Paradise: There are vests everywhere

Chapter 2316: Recent Situation of the Empire
After returning to the Empire of the Sun and talking with Nasus in the Temple of the Sun, Lin Jiu also understood the current situation in the Shurima region. The noble forces from other regions and kingdoms were cleared out one by one by the warriors of the Sun Legion.

Faced with the absolute force of the Solar Legion, the nobles had no power to resist. Sivir and Nasus were prepared to be besieged by multiple forces, but this did not happen.

Before they could rest for long, holes or other places appeared in various towns in Shurima, and a group of extremely ugly monsters emerged, including Nerimaj.

Fortunately, the number of Soldiers grew rapidly, and they dispatched several troops to sweep the Shurima region and kill these monsters. Even so, there were still places that the Soldiers could not reach in time, especially those remote towns.

Now the residents of Shurima are basically concentrated in the areas where the radiation of Nerimaj spreads. In such a large area of ​​Shurima, many places are vacant.

According to Nasus's research, the places where these monsters appeared in large numbers were often closely related to the fallen ascendants, that is, the darkspawn. And the surrounding forces did not come to trouble them, which was very likely because these forces also had similar troubles in their territories and needed to deal with them. Naturally, they could not spare the time to besiege the Solar Empire.

"Darkin..." Lin Jiu naturally did not forget that there was such a group in Runeland. The power of the powerful Darkin was no less than that of the Protoss, or even stronger. For example, the War Protoss was killed by the Sword Demon Aatrox. The Justice Protoss was also devoured by Zolani, and Zolani even needed Ryze to use the Destruction Rune in the World Rune to destroy her.

The power of this group is very strong, otherwise during the Darkin War, the last Twilight Protoss would not have had to hide his identity and use strategies such as driving wolves to devour tigers and sowing discord to plot against the Darkin.

Another reason why Lin Jiu returned to Narimaj in the Empire of the Sun was to get in touch with the Darkin. Logically speaking, with the active erosion of the Void, there should be quite a few Darkin who have been revived by the power of the Void.

From Nasus's discovery, it can be seen that the monsters that appeared in Rune Continent were all caused by the erosion of the void. The darkin were warriors whose minds were twisted and corrupted by the influence of the void. They were failures in the same state as Finel. They were between the doom warriors of the Fiery Solari and strong men like Finel.

In other words, the Doom Warrior of the Solari is actually a weakened version of the Darkin. They are all warriors transformed by the erosion of the Void. The Darkin are based on the Ascended, and the Doom Warrior is a weaker Templar. It is okay to say that they are a weakened version.

These Darkin still have deep feelings for Shurima, whether it is memories or the desire to rule, it doesn't matter. After reviving, they will definitely return to Shurima.

Lin Jiu also wanted to see if he could find any clues from the Darkin if he contacted them. Even if he couldn't, the other party was also hostile. With the strength of the Darkin warriors, they would definitely drop treasure chests, which was also a gain.

The current situation is that there are quite a few void monsters appearing in the Shurima region, and the Sun Legion has been dispatched to clear them out. But none of the Darkin warriors have made any moves. Lin Jiu is sure that there are definitely more than one or two Darkin who have revived and returned. These Darkin who were previously blinded by desire are now behaving themselves.

After thinking about it carefully, Lin Jiu guessed the reason. It was probably because he had made too much noise on Mount Targon not long ago. If you ask around, you will know that he, the Son of the Sun, was on Mount Targon before. Those Darkborn could not guarantee that the noise that penetrated Mount Targon was not caused by him, so even if he revived and returned, he did not cause any trouble in the territory of the Sun Empire.

However, given the Darkin's twisted mind, it is uncertain how long he can hold it in. Lin Jiu also does not have time to wait here for the Darkin to show up, so he just told Sivir to pay more attention to the Darkin's movements and ensure the military support of the Solar Legion.

"Someone in the Legion has discovered Azir's whereabouts and seems to be fighting with someone." Sivir took out a piece of intelligence and told Lin Jiu and Nasus. She mainly told Nasus, because Sivir knew that Lin Jiu didn't care about Azir at all, otherwise he wouldn't have established the current Sun Empire and let her become the Queen of Trust.

Thinking of becoming an empress above all others, Sivir couldn't help but sigh. She was just a mercenary before, only knowing how to fight and kill. It was really a headache for her to suddenly become an emperor and govern the country. If it weren't for Nasus, the regent, Sivir would have quit long ago.

Not everyone has a strong desire to control power, at least Sivir is not one of them. But it is impossible to find just anyone to be the emperor. That is to say, Sivir's helpers, such as Talia, grow very fast and can help her share a lot of pressure. Otherwise, being the emperor is not a good thing for her.

"It should be that guy Xerath." Nasus said calmly.

Lin Jiu took a few more glances at the intelligence, and after reading it, he couldn't help but smile a little more, and said, "That may not be the case. According to the description in the intelligence, the one fighting Azir seems to be a guy with a human body and a crocodile head."

"..." Nasus's expression changed. No matter how the fight between Azir, the former emperor of the ancient Shurima Empire, and Xerath, the person who directly influenced the destruction of the empire, ended, or who won or lost, Nasus didn't care. But he couldn't help but care about his brother Renekton, who once carried him step by step to the altar of the Ascension Ceremony.

"Your Majesty, I think I must set off." Nasus said respectfully to Sivir. He could not ignore Renekton.

"Your brother's butcher knife would be eager to see you." Lin Jiu said lightly. To some extent, Renekton can be considered a darkborn. The "darkborn" here refers to the fallen. Most of the darkborn are under the influence of the void, with distorted minds and magnified desires.

Renekton was different. He had been sealed away for too many years, and had fallen into darkness under the influence of Xerath's sorcery. When the two brothers returned to Nerimaj, the power of the Sun Disc was dissipating and gradually collapsing. In the center of this tragic situation, they found the insidious and cunning wizard Xerath who was at the side of the emperor. At this time, he had become a malevolent body of pure energy.

They were unable to completely destroy Xerath, and Renekton eventually captured Xerath and plunged him into the Tomb of the Kings beneath the city, allowing his brother to seal them in. Nasus reluctantly complied with his brother's wishes, knowing he had no choice.

For centuries, Xerath taunted his rival and whispered lies into Renekton's ears, until his poisonous words began to take root. He convinced Renekton that Nasus was jealous of his exploits and was seizing the opportunity to take advantage of his misfortune and claim immortality for himself.

Renekton's sanity was gradually disintegrated, and Xerath inserted wedges into these cracks, confusing his perception and ability to distinguish between reality and fantasy. As a result, Renekton is no longer the glorious warrior he once was, but a degraded beast full of hatred and madness, with only bloodlust and revenge in his heart.
