he came from the void

Lissandra didn't speak, she stretched out her skinny fingers, and a white light sank into Trundle's forehead, which was where the one-eyed eyes were drawn by the Frost Priests.

Trundle's eyes began to flash a pale cold light, and the bone-piercing cold pierced through his whole body. The extreme coldness brought pain like burning.

This force was rampant in his body, and he waved the bone crushing rod impatiently to release it.

I could only hear the ice shattering, and a huge icicle drilled out from under my feet. The cold air filled the air, and the surrounding ground was instantly covered with a thick layer of hoarfrost.

"Sky Icicles!" Trundle was overjoyed, and immediately gave this new power a resounding name worthy of his status as the king of trolls.

"I need more. Go back, frost troll, and bring me more soldiers next time," Lissandra said.

"Obey, my lord witch." Trundle picked up the bone crushing club, for this strength, he could take risks.

Now he no longer has to worry about the siege of the trolls. It is time for the scattered troll tribes to feel the rule of power.

Chapter 6: The Frost Witch

Trundle left the canyon, and the blind Frost Witch turned in Karn's direction as if she could see them.

"Guests, why don't you come closer and have a chat? Is it too cold here? Or am I too cold?" Lissandra's lips were clear, and her cold tone made Kahn feel like he was in the center of a snowstorm.

"Can she see us?"

Kai'Sa muttered, exchanged glances with Karn, and approached Lissandra together.They made their way through frozen trolls, not dead, as void vision showed.Maybe this has something to do with their strong vitality, but it's more because of Lissandra's mercy.

Kahn thought that Lissandra needed these trolls to be useful, so it was understandable to spare their lives, but she didn't know what she was going to use these trolls for.

"I am Lissandra. My people call me the patriarch of the Frostguard, the Lady of Ice and Darkness, the goddess who walks in the world, and the world calls me the Frost Witch. Why don't the two guests speak? They are deaf like my sister. Are you still dumb?"

He turned his head to face Lissandra, the skates under his feet seemed to be connected with her long skirt, holding her up very high, but she was a tall woman herself, and the arms around her body radiated cold light, Filled with cold and dark magic.

Since Lissandra has them as guests, greetings must precede all words.

"I'm Kahn, and this is my partner Kaisha. As you can see, we and the girl who can weave rocks came from the vast desert on the other side of the sea. We accepted your invitation on her behalf."

Speaking, Kahn showed the black ice pendant to Lissandra, and he had already forgotten the fact that Lissandra was blind.But that doesn't mean she can't see what's in front of her. On the contrary, she lost her eyes a long time ago, so she can trace the shape of things in her mind.

Lissandra nodded, and replied calmly: "I have heard my priest mention you, come with me, this place is not a place to entertain guests."

Lissandra turned to leave, but the frost guards did not move, as if they stayed to guard the ice sculptures of these trolls.Kahn looked around, suppressed his doubts and followed Lissandra and left here.

They followed Lissandra to an icy lake in the canyon, which had been completely soaked by the power of the watchers. The ice surface under their feet was darker and farther than the night sky, as if it went straight under the material base.

The ice lake is very cold, exuding a power that shocks the bone marrow.As soon as Kahn walked on it, he felt a force wanting to keep his footsteps.He looked down, his feet had been covered with a layer of frost, sticking together with the icy lake under his feet.If he doesn't pass quickly, his steps will be frozen in place.

There is a portal beside the frozen lake. The beam of light it emits goes straight into the sky, piercing through the fog that permeates everywhere, marking this place from a long distance, so that people will not be unable to find the location of the portal in the fog.

But the fog that obscured her vision is no longer necessary for Lissandra, she has already kept every corner of the Howling Abyss in mind.

Karn approached the portal, noticing that it was made of two rune-inscribed stone pillars, with energy flowing back and forth between them.One of them has lost part of the stone at the top due to long-term wind erosion, and it appears that one is high and the other is low.

This portal is similar to the portal in Bandle City. The light film formed by the condensed energy shows the scene on the other side of the portal. It is a huge stone bridge in the glacier canyon. It is heavily guarded, but you can see the sky.

Lissandra passed between the guards. Since she came to the frozen lake, she took off her ice skates and took a light step. Only then did Kai'Sa know that she still had legs.Dragging her gorgeous robe, she walked slowly on the sparkling black ice lake like freshly fallen snow.Her footsteps were soft whispers on the snow, and she had already walked a long way without paying attention.

Watching Lissandra's silhouette go through the portal to the other side, Kahn let Kai'sa walk behind him, breaking into the shimmering film of light first.

Because he was severely torn by Ryze's teleportation magic, Kahn didn't feel any obvious discomfort when passing through the portal.Standing on the stone bridge, the retention from the ice under his feet disappeared, and his steps became brisk again.

A hand stretched out from the light film behind him, Kahn grabbed it and pulled Kai'Sa over.Kai'Sa noticed that Lissandra was facing them, turned her head and continued walking when she saw that the two had followed.

A group of ice eagles flapped their wings and flew overhead. The blizzard had stopped at some point, and the deep night sky was dotted with stars, which was extremely beautiful.

"This bridge..." Kai'Sa looked away, and was immediately shocked by the huge stone bridge she was on.

She had never seen such a huge bridge, and erected over such a deep abyss.The stone bridge spans the Howling Abyss, with a span of a thousand meters, and its structure is not a simple straight structure. The cobweb-shaped sidewalks and viaducts extending from the main trunk look more like an open-air bridge. Temple, dedicated to the black ice statues of the three sisters Avarosa, Serilda and Lissandra on the bridge.

And this is also the oldest bridge she has ever seen. It was built long before the first sun disc was erected. I heard that it was built by the three sisters begging the God of Casting, Ornn, so that they could be built in a long time span. Li stands here.Kai'Sa is also willing to believe this statement, because she can't imagine how humans can build such a huge bridge out of thin air over the abyss.

"This should be the main castle bridge. We are very close to the Frostguard Fortress, but there should be a long way to go." Kahn followed Lissandra's direction and looked at the other side of the bridge. The gate is embedded in the ice wall, leading to the interior of the glacier.

"The portal brought us up." Kai'Sa looked down, the howling wind in the mountain stream couldn't blow away the thick fog, and they couldn't see the situation at the bottom of the abyss, just like they couldn't see the things above. Bridges and sky, I don't know how deep this howling abyss is.

"Don't fall," Kahn warned, Kai'sa couldn't fly, so he grabbed one of her wrists. "Keep going, or you won't be able to keep up with Lissandra, and there should be a chance to come here later."

"Yeah." Kai'Sa said before taking two steps: "You said that Frostguard Fortress is not on the Howling Abyss, you are wrong."

"It's okay, it's not all wrong."

Kahn originally thought that the Howling Abyss and Frostguard Citadel were not geographically next to each other, but were connected by a portal.In fact, the two were close together, but the Howling Abyss was too huge, and he saw the entrance at the corner of the abyss, but he didn't see where the Frostguard Fortress was, so he thought they were not in the same place.

Chapter 651 Frozen Mausoleum

If the Howling Abyss is compared to a huge spider web, then the Frostguard Fortress is the spider sitting in the center of the web, and the portals on the bridge leading to various regions are the key nodes of the web.

Karn is at the end of the bridge, where there are statues of guardians standing in the palace, and there are many portals leading to various areas of the Howling Abyss. Lissandra and her men use these portals Quickly shuttle between the main castle and the abyss.

The stone bridge in the abyss also verified Kahn's statement. The bridge they were on was not the only bridge across the chasm. They walked on the bridge and saw several other bridges at the same time, which were assumed to be in different places. height and level.It's just that they were all wrapped up tightly like a shroud by distance, fog, and darkness, and they couldn't see the appearance of the bridge clearly.

Kahn remembered the abandoned bridge with only the skeleton of the piers that he saw below. He guessed that there were only a few visible bridges, and there were at least dozens of bridges between the two walls of the big gap, except for the one at the top. All but one were abandoned and disused.

But so many bridges are enough to show that the Howling Abyss is so big that many bridges need to be erected to ensure basic transportation.

In addition to bridges, at key points along the Howling Abyss, the Frostguard also built huge spiked partitions on the cliffs, which have stood for thousands of years.

These buildings are like huge forked spines growing from the ice wall, lying in the dense fog, just too huge to match the huge size of the Watchers.Although it took a huge amount of labor, their existence is still meaningful.

If one day, when the Watchers wake up again, these crude fortifications may buy some precious time for the people above, allowing them to prepare as much as they can for the final battle.

The ethereal wailing flowing in the wind became more intense, and the ice crystal shards hit them, making the armor turn white.

They followed Lissandra to the gate of the main castle, and the warriors guarding the gate immediately opened the heavy gate a crack.

Regarding the visit of the two visitors, these frost guards did not show any curiosity or disdain, and there was no communication during the whole process.Kahn can be sure they are not blind, but not even a simple eye contact, standing in the cold wind, guarding the towering city walls.

The Frostguard's faith in Lissandra is harsh and stern, vowing blind obedience, freezing, and bleeding.No one dared to question or question the guests brought back by Lissandra himself, which shows how firm their beliefs are.

Until they all entered the main castle, the gate was closed, and the howling cold wind was shut out with the roaring echo.It's not as cold here as it was outside. Kahn and Kai'Sa lifted their helmets one after another, breathing in the bitter air.

The surrounding stone pillars are inlaid with spars emitting cold light, continuously illuminating the four walls of the palace.In the end, the two of them followed Lissandra all the way through various inner halls and corridors, and came to a secret private room in the upper part of the main castle.

As soon as the door was opened, a threatening cold air hit the face, like the smell of a freezer.Kahn followed Lissandra into the stone room, and saw many windows on the circular ceiling at first sight, and the runes engraved on them could control the energy of many celestial bodies.

In front of him was a staircase extending downwards, the room was very dark, the light of the frosty moon and the cold star cast into the stone room, and thousands of black icicles shaped like coffins protruded from the snowy ground.They are like huge black teeth, growing out of the deep valleys, as if to swallow the sky.

Lissandra went down the stairs, and walked slowly among the unique ice formations, meandering through the cracks between the ice crystals, she seemed to see more clearly in the dark even though she was totally blind.

"Come down." The Frost Witch said calmly, "I've always thought this place is beautiful, and I always like to come here to have a look before I fall asleep."

The night sky can be seen here, but compared to other cold places, Kahn feels that this place is as quiet as a mausoleum, lifeless.

They followed down the stairs and came to the ice formation. As soon as Fang approached, what he saw in the icicles surprised him.

In every black icicle, a half-dreaming, half-dead person is frozen, chattering among the ice crystal boulders.

The characters sealed in the ice stone are also strange, including ancient troll kings, human knights with mottled armor, thieves holding gem daggers, and almost all kinds of characters.

They come from all over the world and from different eras, but one thing in common is that these people are all frozen in time and space, trapped between dreams and death.

The moment of waking up from the dream is the moment of death.

"Why are these people sealed here? Did they do anything?"

Kahn didn't know whether the situation in front of him was due to Lissandra's bad taste or what. These people from different time and space could not have gathered to fight against Lissandra. They were definitely frozen one by one and stored together in this stone room.

It made him think that Lissandra might have some weird and terrible proclivities.

"These are my treasures. They all wanted to be the hero who killed the Frost Witch. I froze them in time and space, returning to the moment when they killed the so-called Frost Witch." Lissandra's blue A self-admired smile was drawn on the lips: "Don't you think it's beautiful? Such people of all kinds are united under the same goal of action, and they are all heroes."

"It's hard to disagree." Kahn only felt panicked. It turned out that his intuition was so accurate, this place is really a tomb.

What he was thinking now was that Lissandra's rhetoric might just be an excuse.She brought them here, obviously to warn them that all those who tried to kill her would end up like this.Even if she really thought the scene here was beautiful, it definitely had a warning purpose.

"What are you doing this for? Just because it looks good?" Kai'Sa tried to understand Lissandra's logic.

"Of course more than that, the existence of these ice stones is meaningful." Lissandra brushed the surface of the ice shell with her thin fingers, nodded and said: "The nightmares they have during the torment will lull other restless people to sleep, and the dream is The world's last line of defense, the more the better."

Lissandra spoke cryptically, but Karn understood her meaning anyway.

These heroes are different from ordinary people. It is better to be a carrier of dreams than to die in vain. After all, Lissandra alone will run out of inspiration sooner or later. When the watchers get tired of the dreams she created, the consequences will be disastrous.And the stronger the willpower of these heroes, the more realistic the dreams they create, which can provide some inspiration for Lissandra walking in the dream to relieve her urgent needs.

"What about those trolls from before? Also put them here?"

Chapter 652 Ice and Flame

"Those trolls are not qualified enough to enter my treasure room."

"Then what do you want those trolls to do, to serve as cannon fodder for the frontline?"

Lissandra's calm voice came from the frozen tomb, and she sounded like she was enjoying the atmosphere.

With so many people by her side, she is not alone.In contrast, Kahn's voice was too rough and not gentle at all, making her want to freeze his lips with ice.

"Shh, don't disturb the sleeping souls here." Lissandra put a finger on her blue lips, and let out a breath of frost.

She meanders through the stone forest of midnight ice, the icy moonlight falls on her robe through the skylight, and the stars and the moon shine brightly.She came to the two of them and asked, "Why care about those stupid guys, let's talk about business, you are looking for me to get close to the monitor?"

"Yes." Kahn felt that there was no need to hide it. They were all covered with void skin armor, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that they were connected with void.

"Then are you aware of the current situation?" Lissandra asked again.

"I dreamed that the seal was loose, and the watcher is about to wake up."

Kahn learned this by relying on the memories brought by time travel. The best excuse for him to find out the reason for this information is to dream, and that dream of Lissandra has already revealed many things.

Lissandra's expression changed subtly, she turned around, and the bright blue starlight shone on her pale face, making people feel that she was looking up at the night sky.

"How can I believe that you are on my side and not here to help the Watcher break out of the ice? You have the same thing as the one eye in the abyss."

She sighed, and a word made the warmth that had just risen drop to freezing point in an instant.

"What do you mean, Lissandra, you are the one who makes this world walk on thin ice, don't think that no one knows the true history buried in the ice and snow." Kai'Sa was angry about this: "Our hometown was destroyed by the void, we were Forced to put on this void skin that made me suffer from thousands of needle pricks, no one hates void more than me!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the stinging pain from the skin armor was greatly amplified, causing her knees to bend, and her hands quickly rested on Kahn's shoulders.Lissandra turned a deaf ear to the girl's scolding and screaming, and said to herself: "If you want to stop the watcher, have you prepared a countermeasure?"

"Witch, put away your arrogance. If you want us to come up with a plan, you have to let us meet the watcher first." Kahn lifted Kai'sa who was baring her teeth, and shouted to Lissandra at the same time.

"If time could be repeated, I don't want to make such a choice, but now everything is a definite number." Lissandra said: "I have thought and tried countless methods for thousands of years, and none of them can Completely eliminate the threat of the watchers, and what can you two kids who are less than twenty winters do?"

"I said that the plan can only be confirmed by seeing it with your own eyes. Your so-called solution is only a temporary solution, not the root cause, otherwise we would not have come here." In order to change Lissandra's outlook, Kahn took off his armor.

After the skin armor came off, the cold air from the arm blade wrapped around his arm, making him shiver uncontrollably.But then the eternal flame that ignited dispelled the cold, and the warmth returned to him.

Lissandra turned, facing the eternal flame in Karn's hand, as if she could see it.

"This is a magical flame created by the Icacia mages to contain the void. Although it cannot destroy the pure void, it can burn matter and magic with the power of the void to strip the pure void."

What Kahn said is not difficult to understand. Void is the essential power from another plane. When it combines with the material and magic of this world, various so-called void creatures will be born.

By continuously burning void creatures with eternal flames, all the matter and energy combined with them can be burned, and the remaining parts that cannot be burned are pure void.

As long as this part of the incombustible void does not come into contact with organic matter and magic, there is no threat in itself. As long as it is carefully contained, it can completely isolate the harm.

For example, use a special container to contain it. Although the power of the void in the container can feel the fresh life outside and wriggle crazily, it has no ability to break through the container.In this way, the threat of the power of the void is isolated, but there is a major premise for all of this, that is, no one can be greedy for the power in the container.

The same is true when enlarging this example to the level of the entire world. The barrier between worlds is a container that the void cannot break through. If Lissandra hadn't made a deal with the monitors for the power of the void, the void would not be here. The far north broke into the mortal world.

As for the Void Watchers, they were originally just huge, cold, invisible spirit bodies floating in the dark void realm. Because they were attracted by the existence of the mortal world and gave birth to consciousness, they could not bear the real rhythm of the other side of the void, and wanted to destroy life Return everything to nothingness.

These consciousness bodies broke into Runeterra and underwent a violent combination and transformation with matter, only then did they have time and quality.temperature and color.

And Kahn's idea is to use the eternal flame to burn the material part of the monitor, so that they can return to their essence and become a consciousness that cannot affect the material world.But no matter what, you have to see the watcher before you can decide what to do.

In the frozen dark mausoleum illuminated by the flames, in the corner of the eye, Lissandra stretched out his skinny fingers facing the eternal flame, moving slowly as if feeling the power of the surging flames.

When she was about to touch the flame, she retracted again.

Lissandra whispered, as if she was afraid of blowing out the fire: "Although I hate flames, if I can prevent the whole world from being swallowed up, I can also devote myself to fire."

Eternal Flame and True Ice are two completely different substances.

It was a last resort to freeze the Watcher's consciousness with True Ice and let it fall into a dream. She knew very well that it would be foolish to put the burden of all her beliefs on a single layer of glass, but there was no other choice in this world.

Kahn brought the Eternal Flame. According to him, the burning of the Eternal Flame is the most thorough way to eliminate the threat of the Monitor, and it is worth a try.

But how to achieve it is a big problem. Before using the eternal flame, the ice must be melted. What if the watcher wakes up in the process?

This idea has many imperfections, such as how to keep the watcher asleep during the burning process?What would the Overseer do if he used the sheer power of the void to form a barrier against the flames?

This is not her field of expertise, and once something happens, it will only hasten the end of the world.
