Legends of Runeterra

Chapter 729 True and False Murderer

"quiet!!!"

"Boom~!"

The gloomy sky was suddenly torn apart by the huge magical power, and the overflowing magic blasted deep pits on the ground one after another.

Almost instantly, all the villagers who had rushed towards Vega fell to the ground.

"Dang Cang~!"

"Plop~!"

Margot also sat down on the ground, gasping for breath.

However, after witnessing Veigar's true power, the villagers now dared not look up, with regret surging in their hearts.

"Om~!"

The inky black energy controlled Margo to raise his head, and Veigar looked down at the mortal from above.

"Now, tell me who dares to accumulate evil in the place where I rule and usurp my prestige!"

"..."

"No, Master Mage, we are wrong!!"

"Mr. Mage, spare my life!"

“Ouch! It’s over! It’s over!!”

After the courage they had finally mustered up in their hearts disappeared, the villagers began to tremble in fear again, and without waiting for Margo to speak, they all begged Vega to let them go.

"Kill you? Nehahaha~!

What qualifications do you, poor mortals, have to die at the hands of the great lord of evil, Veigar?

From the beginning to the end, people like you have never died in my hands.

Come on! Where is that guy!? "

Margo gritted her teeth and glared at the evil wizard in mid-air.

"If you want to kill me, just kill me. Why are you teasing the villagers like this?!"

"you..."

Vega's steel gauntlets suddenly clenched.

"Om~!"

Ink-black magical energy gathered in his palm, and it seemed that in the next moment, this magical power would crash into everyone.

"Ahem~!"

"Mr. Vega, the great Lord of Evil, could you please calm down a little?"

Upon hearing this, Vega, who was in a dilemma and gathered his magic power out of anger for a moment but didn't want to really hit it, took the opportunity to put away the magic power in his hand.

“Hmph! Who dares to disturb Lord Vega? Come out, or my magic will teach you an unforgettable lesson!”

Maintaining his majestic posture, Vega looked towards the shadows on the side.

I saw the shadow ripple like the calm water, and a tall and straight figure slowly walked out.

"Lean Reyes, meet Mr. Vega, the Lord of Evil."

"Leen?"

Vega looked down at the man who was slowly approaching and standing ten meters away. He looked at him carefully, and his eyes filled with dim energy revealed a hint of doubt and hesitation.

From this man named Li En, Vega felt the aura of a certain organization that had been harassing him for thousands of years since he escaped from Modkaiser, but this was not the reason for him to hesitate.

What really puzzled Vega was the other person's aura, which was as dreamy and childlike as colorful bubbles flowing in the sun.

Obviously, this aura that was extremely inconsistent with the style of an evil villain should be what he hated the most, but this aura inexplicably made him instinctively feel a little nostalgic.

Vega's eyes moved around Li En, and finally locked onto the small bag hanging around his waist.

In his perception, the place with the strongest smell was right in this bag.

"Where... did this come from?"

"My friend Lulu gave it to me."

"Lulu?"

"Yes, Mr. Vega, how about we talk about this bag later? The most urgent thing now is to find the despicable guy who dared to provoke you, right?"

"Well, you're right!"

Vega nodded, but when he set his eyes on the people in the magic prison, he felt troubled again.

"Mr. Vega, how about letting me communicate with them? Is that okay with you?"

"Really? Thanks... ahem~! I mean, I agreed!"

"Thanks for your trust."

Li En smiled slightly, then walked to the barrier constructed of black and purple energy.

"Hello, Ms. Margot."

As soon as Li En opened his mouth, he took the initiative to reveal the fact that he had been observing for a long time.

Through the energy barrier, Margot was also looking at Li En's clothes.

As the only villager who had seen the world, although Margo could not recognize the family represented by the patterns on Li En's clothes, he knew that was undoubtedly a treatment that only imperial nobles could enjoy.

"..."

Seeing that Margo, the only one who was still calm, had no intention of speaking, Li En turned to look at Vega.

“Mr. Vega, could you please remove this barrier?”

"no problem."

“Tsk~!”

Vega snapped his fingers in mid-air, and the barrier that trapped everyone instantly dissipated.

"I'm curious, who found the murderer's trail and told you to come to such a remote tower?"

"I..."

Before Margo could say anything, the villagers behind her turned their eyes subconsciously.

"Sir, it's Tacodo!"

"Huh? Where's Tacodo? Didn't he come with us?"

"Yeah, is he lost?!"

"Quiet!"

Margo spoke up, interrupting the villagers, her expression growing increasingly worse as her brown eyes quickly scanned the crowd.

"This... Lord Li En, we... it was indeed Takodo who told us the whereabouts of the murderer, but now he..."

"Human, tell me, what does he look like!?"

Vega in mid-air interrupted Margo with a sharp voice. The dark magic surging around him was enough to prove his current anger.

"He looks..."

Margot spoke subconsciously but couldn't help frowning. It was the other party who came to her not long ago and said that he had found the murderer's trace, but now she couldn't remember the other person's face at all.

"Sir, Takodo..."

"Yeah, what does Tacodo look like!?"

"Is he...from our village?"

...

Like Margot, the villagers also discovered that something was wrong at this moment.

"Damn it, these stupid mortals were fooled by that guy!!"

"Please be patient, Mr. Vega. I think I found a clue."

After Li En finished speaking, he waved his hand towards the villagers.

"Hoo~!"

A breeze blew over them, and almost transparent silk threads were swept from their bodies and flew towards Li En.

"This is..."

"That guy is very cunning. He manipulated these villagers with these strange strings like a puppet."

"Neheeheehee~!"

Seeing this cunning trick, Vega laughed excitedly.

"That's right, that's it, only such a cunning and evil being is worthy of dying at the hands of the great lord of evil, Lord Vega!!

Li En, give it to me quickly!"

“Of course, but Lord Vega, can you let me go with you?”

“No problem. I allow you to come with me and see Master Vega’s methods for yourself!”

“Thank you for your generosity.”

"Neheeheehee~!"

Veigar laughed with satisfaction, and an obscure magic circle appeared on the iron gauntlet holding the 'silk thread'.

"Om~!"

"Found it, Li En, let's go!"

"Okay, Mr. Vega."

Li En casually set up a magic circle to protect these reckless and pitiful villagers, and followed Vega towards the mountains.
