Runeterra: I really know a little bit about everything

Chapter 263 The disappeared Thor, a way to seal the void!
As night falls, the battlefield has been completely cleared.

Mountains of corpses of void creatures were turned to ashes in the flames of Zuochi, and the snowfield was once again covered with white snow.

Standing alone in the snow, Zuo Chi looked up at the sky. His body was gradually becoming transparent, as if it contained a universe, and many stars were emerging from his body.

The stars shone brightly, and Zuo Chi's body gradually disappeared in place.

When he reappeared, he once again returned to the highest point in Runeterra - the Peak of Targon!

Looking around, compared to the last time we left, the summit of Titan Peak has regained some of its vitality. At least the buildings where the protoss live have been built again.

When they noticed Zuo Chi's appearance, almost instantly, the entire Titan Peak became as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Almost all the star spirits rushed out of their residences and rushed towards Zuo Chi.

During this period of time, since Zuo Chi killed the Titan of Justice and shattered the only gateway between Runeterra and Heaven, the stars on Titan Peak have never received any messages from Heaven.

They have no way of knowing what happened in Heaven, nor what decisions Heaven has made.

Speaking of which, compared with the confusion of other star spirits and heavenly beings, the two of them were considered to be the few star spirits who could exchange a few words with Zuo Chi.

Leona's breath was suffocated, then she adjusted her mood and said:
"I have ordered adjustments to the internal policies of the Burning Sun Sect. Now the Burning Sun Sect will no longer rashly interfere with the beliefs of the people of Mount Targon, and will no longer even conflict with the Bright Moon Sect."

They can just stay at the top of Titan Peak very passively, waiting for the edict from heaven.

Although he and Belvis had killed five monitors, Zuo Chi also knew how difficult it was.

"I see."

Soon, Leona and Tariq appeared in front of Zuo Chi.

Turning to look at the surrounding star spirits and heavenly creatures, Zuo Chi waved his hand gently: "Let's all leave. I'm not here for you."

If the five monitors were like this, what about the dozens of others after that.

"If you don't have the ability to escape the rules of Runeterra, you will be forced to give up a lot of things when you want to enter Runeterra again."

After that, Zuo Chi ignored the gazes of the surrounding stars and rose into the sky under the gaze of the stars, turning into a starlight and shooting straight into the sky.

Zuo Chi knew this very well, so he wanted to leave Runeterra at this point, find Thor, and ask for his help.

Due to the extremely fast flight, a fiery red stream of light appeared in front of Zuo Chi's body, and the temperature on his arms was rising rapidly.

"You want to leave?"

The void rift at that time was the second one to appear after the rift in the Howling Abyss in the north, and Thor was also dispatched by the previous war protoss to enter Runeterra to suppress the void.

The surrounding light gradually dimmed, as if he once again appeared among the stars.

Facing Zuo Chi's burning eyes, Leona thought for a short time, and then she said slowly:

Searching for memories, the ancient Shurima Empire with thousands of Ascended Ones could not compete with the Void.

Even in the process, Thor's overflowing aura of power also turned the previous generation of war protoss into ashes.

Hearing this, Zuo Chi just smiled and nodded.

Zuo Chi came to his senses and nodded slightly to Leona.

That was the predecessor of the Void Crack in Icasia, probably several thousand years earlier than the First Void War.

Thor soared above the sky. He felt the evil aura hidden in another dimension, and even felt the provocation of the monitors!
The angry dragon's breath across the sky destroyed everything in its path, and even the crack in the void where many monitors existed was destroyed in an instant.

Just when Zuo Chi was stunned, Leona's voice sounded again:

Zuo Chi's eyes moved slightly, and he could naturally understand what Leona meant by "getting rid of the rules of Runeterra".

It seems that Thor is the only one in the world who has the ability to completely destroy the void rift.

This rule has existed since the birth of Runeterra, and has protected Runeterra from countless invasions from outside.

In Zuo Chi's memory, it seems that the only person in the known universe who has truly destroyed the Void Crack is one person.

Zuo Chi shook his head: "It's just that there are some things that require us to leave temporarily."

In order to win the subsequent war with the Void, Zuo Chi seems to have to find strong enough foreign aid.

Can he really compete with dozens of void monitors just now?

Just like when the Titan of Justice came to Runeterra with the body of Kyle, who had climbed to the top of the God Level, if you want to come to Runeterra as a true god from outside the world, you must find ways to break through the rules of Runeterra.

Originally, the top of Titan Peak was already approaching the top of Runeterra infinitely. At this time, as Zuochi continued to move upward, he could very clearly feel the changes in the rules of power around him.

After this seal, thousands of years passed before Icathia's mages once again discovered the existence of this void deep underground. As a result, Icathia and the Ancient Shurima Empire fell into an eternal nightmare. among.

Zuo Chi looked at the stars in front of him and asked:
"Leona, if my body goes outside Runeterra, can I still return safely?"

just
Zuo Chi looked up at the boundless sky, his eyes were extremely deep.

Hearing this, a look of surprise flashed across Leona's face.

Zuo Chi has now advanced to the level of True God. Due to his identity as a native creature of Rune Land, he can move freely on Rune Land without being restricted by rules. However, once his body leaves Rune Land, he will be the same as those giant gods. There is no way to return to Runeterra easily.

As if he thought of something, Zuo Chi said to Leona: "How is the Burning Sun Sect doing now?"

That is the Star-Forging Dragon King—Aurelion Thor!

"What's the matter, Your Excellency?" Leona took a step forward and asked in a deep voice.

"If you are not fully prepared, you'd better not leave Runeterra easily. Otherwise, when you return, you may become like Soraka and be forced to give up your godhood and most of your divine power."

However, Zuo Chi could feel that he was still in Rune Land, but he was already infinitely close to the barrier between Rune Land and the sky.

Finally, Zuo Chi's rising figure slowly stopped, and he raised his hand to touch forward.

At this point, Zuo Chi could clearly sense that the constant pressure around him had become extremely powerful, and even beings at the demigod level might not be able to withstand this pressure.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, Zuo Chi's hand lightly touched a barrier made up of many mysterious runes, and a heartbreaking burning pain came from his fingertips.

Zuo Chi endured the severe pain and raised his other hand, trying to forcefully tear open the rune barrier in front of him with both hands.

However, as Zuo Chi gradually exerted his strength, he discovered that he could not break through this barrier with his own strength alone.

You must know that Zuo Chi now has true god-level combat power, but even so, he still seems so powerless when facing this barrier.

Perhaps this is the reason why even powerful beings like the Titan Clan cannot easily enter and leave Runeterra.

In the end, after trying in every possible way, Zuo Chi had no choice but to give up.

However, Zuo Chi has reached the highest point of the Rune Land after all, and the only thing left between him and the sky is the barrier in front of him.

How could he be willing to leave like this?

His body was gradually wrapped in golden flames, Zuo Chi began to grow taller, and many stars in his body shone brightly at the same time.

next moment.

"Roar!"

The dragon's roar suddenly resounded across the sky, and many ripples suddenly appeared on the barrier in front of Zuo Chi.

With the appearance of these ripples, the other side of the barrier also transmitted power fluctuations to the distant starry sky.

Realizing this, Zuo Chi once again increased his power output, slamming a breath of dragon's breath onto the barrier. While the barrier was vibrating, it was also transmitting information to the starry sky on the other side.

Messages were sent out one after another by Zuo Chi using this special method, and he was also waiting for Sol's response.

Therefore, it is almost certain that with Thor's power level, he will be able to detect the message he is sending almost instantly.

However, as time went by, although Zuo Chi kept trying without sparing any effort, he never got the slightest response. Zuo Chi even once doubted whether there was something wrong with his approach.

The starry sky outside Runeterra seemed empty and lonely at this time.

The huge figure that had always surrounded Runeterra had disappeared at this time, leaving only many stars rotating forever.

Perhaps Zuo Chi's method was not wrong, but he subconsciously ignored one thing, that is, Thor would not always stay outside Runeterra.

If it were in the past, when the Titans had already opened up a majestic empire across the star field, they would not need Thor to do anything else. They would only need to be on standby outside Runeterra at any time.

But now, after what happened to the Titan of Justice, the Titan clan seems to be making some preparations.

And Saul's departure may be precisely because of this reason.

In the silent deep sky, Zuo Chi was suspended quietly, breathing heavily.

After a long period of tilting his power, he didn't get the desired result. Zuo Chi couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Because this is not just a simple matter of not finding Thor, it is also about the subsequent war with the void.

However, even if he knew the stakes, what could he do if he could not break through the barrier in front of him?

He stood in the deep sky for a long time, and finally with a long sigh, Zuo Chi's figure slowly disappeared from the spot.

Runeterra's extraterritorial barrier once again returned to calm, as if nothing happened.

Zuochi, who failed to find any foreign aid, returned to the top of Mount Targon and headed towards the Shurima Empire. Apart from Thor, the Shurima Empire seems to be the only force that has briefly defeated the Void. Perhaps there, I can get some of the information I want.

Soon, Zuo Chi appeared in the Royal Capital of Shurima, and it was at this time that he discovered the lively atmosphere in the Imperial Capital.

Looking down from the sky, Zuo Chi saw the Ascended Legion, who were greeted by the people of Shurima and returned in triumph wearing golden armor!
Aatrox, wearing golden holy armor and holding a blue-gold sword, walked at the front of the team, followed by Varus, Kayn and the former members of Aatrox's Darkin Legion.

Obviously, Piltover and Zaun are now owned by Shurima, and Shurima has once again shown its fangs to the empire on the Valoran continent after being dormant for thousands of years.

On the other side, Aatrox and others who were walking on the Imperial City Avenue looked up at the sky in the distance as if they had something in their hearts. At this time, the eyes of Zuo Chi and others who had not seen each other for a long time intertwined. Come together.

"Zuo Chi!?"

Aatrox's voice was full of joy and surprise. He even rubbed his eyes in disbelief, fearing that he had seen wrongly.

The other ascendants were also looking at Zuo Chi, with smiles on everyone's faces.

Once upon a time, when they were despised by the world, the only one who could stand unswervingly by their side seemed to be Zuo Chi in front of them.

They have gone through too much together. Whether it was the Second Darkin War or Shurima's Restoration War, Zuo Chi has brought them back from the brink of death more than once.

Zuo Chi is now their general, but he is also their best friend.

Zuo Chi was also laughing. He fell from the sky and came to Aatrox and the Ascended Ones amidst the salutes of the Shurima people around him.

After a brief exchange of greetings, Zuochi and the Ascended Legion went to the palace of Shurima together.

Reunited with old friends, Zuo Chi chatted with Aatrox and everyone in the Ascended Legion. Here, he didn't need to have any scruples.

The members of the Ascension Legion also noticed the anxiety in Zuo Chi's eyes. They did not take the initiative to mention it, but they were all waiting.

When Azir also came to the hall, Zuo Chi expressed his worries with a heavy expression.

"A void rift also appeared in the northern border of Valoran, and its scale is much larger than the void in Icathia."

Hearing Zuo Chi's words, Aatrox and others showed a look of surprise on their faces.

Zuo Chi continued:

"I temporarily sealed the crack in the void, but it was only a temporary seal. Maybe it won't take long before the seal will be broken and the void will appear again."

"When I come back this time, I also want to ask you how to permanently seal the Void Crack and prevent it from appearing again!"

After Zuo Chi finished speaking, the hall fell into a brief silence.

After a moment, Aatrox asked: "Zuo Chi, is the crack in the void that you mentioned the same place under the abyss?"

When Aatrox briefly stayed in Zuo Chi's arms, he had gone to the Howling Abyss with Zuo Chi, so when he heard Zuo Chi's words, he instantly remembered this experience.

Zuo Chi nodded: "Yes, that's right there."

"Then do you still remember the method I told you at the beginning?"

Aatrox said softly: "When we were in Icathia, in order to seal the underground void, it was Horok who went deep into the void and destroyed the heart of the void protected by many void creatures. This allowed us to succeed in the outside world. Seal the void.”

"Heart of Void"

Hearing this name again, Zuo Chi couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Just as Zuo Chi was pondering, Aatrox's voice came again, and this time it had an obvious warning tone:
"Zuo Chi, the danger of entering the void is extremely high, and the possibility of being infected by the void is almost 100%. Horlock is the most obvious example."

"After he successfully destroyed the Heart of the Underworld, he ultimately failed to withstand the backlash of Void energy and became the first among us to die. So, if you want to seal the Void by destroying the Heart of the Void , then you must be fully prepared!”

Having said this, Aatrox slowly stood up and came to Zuo Chi.

He slowly put his hand on Zuo Chi's shoulder, and his eyes met with his:

"When you leave this time, I will go with you!"

Zuo Chi shook his head without hesitation: "Absolutely not. The Shurima Empire has just begun. You must not have any more accidents. Otherwise, who can help His Majesty?"

Seeing that Aatrox was still ready to persist, Zuo Chi immediately asked again:
"Besides destroying the Heart of the Void, is there any other way?"

Aatrox shook his head: "Even the method of the Heart of the Void was experimented by us at the expense of countless compatriots. As for other methods, if they really exist, it may still require a huge price to discover. "

"Is this so"

Zuo Chi murmured in a low voice.

Everyone in the hall said nothing. They looked at Zuo Chi quietly, with violent fluctuations in everyone's eyes.

After a long time, Zuo Chi grinned at everyone and said easily:
"Relax, it may take a long time before the seal is broken again. I still have a lot of time to prepare, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Okay, I still have my wife and children waiting for me at home, so I will withdraw first. You have been out on the field for so long, so please report to His Majesty what has happened during this time."

After Zuo Chi said this, he slightly arched his hand towards Azir, and then waved to Aatrox and others.

"I'll come back to you in a while, and I'll have a good drink with you then. Now I need to go home to make sure I'm safe, bye!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zuo Chi's figure slowly disappeared from the spot. When he reappeared, he was already in the vast snowfield outside the Howling Abyss.

When he was truly alone, Zuo Chi's originally relaxed and carefree eyes completely dimmed.

Looking at his hands godlessly, Zuo Chi knew that there seemed to be no more suitable candidate than himself to enter the void and destroy the void heart.

After all, who can enter the void under the protection of dozens of void monitors and go to the heart of the void?
In fact, others may not even know what the Heart of the Void is.

However, recalling Aatrox's warning to him, and thinking about the girls who were still waiting for him to return, Zuo Chi couldn't help but feel extremely heavy.

"What are you thinking?"

Suddenly, just as Zuo Chi was looking at the snowy field in front of him absentmindedly, a cold voice of a royal sister sounded behind him.

Turning his head to look, Lissandra, wearing an ice blue dress, was looking at him quietly from behind.

"Have you found a way to seal the void?" Lissandra asked again.

Zuo Chi spread his hands: "How come you know everything?"

Lissandra snorted: "You have been standing there for two hours. If you say that you have not brought back any news, do you think I will believe it? Moreover, have you forgotten who opened the void and who Who guarded the Howling Abyss for ten thousand years?"

Zuo Chi's eyes moved slightly, he tilted his head and asked:
"Do you know the Heart of the Void?"

"Heart of Void?"

Lissandra paused slightly: "Do you have any specific information?"

Zuo Chi shook his head: "I only know that destroying the Heart of the Void can seal the Void. As for what the Heart of the Void looks like and where it is in the Void, we still need time to find out."

"Your news is really unreliable." Lissandra couldn't help complaining.

Zuo Chi rolled his eyes: "Just take care of your frost guards."

After Zuo Chi said that, he turned around and walked towards the Frost Guard Fortress in the distance. After running around for so long, it was time to take a rest.

Behind Zuo Chi, Lissandra looked at Zuo Chi's back, and she suddenly asked:
"Are there any conditions for destroying the Heart of the Void?"

Zuo Chi paused for a moment, recalling Aatrox's description of Horok's process of destroying the Heart of the Void, and finally he said:

"It should be enough as long as the strength is strong enough. There doesn't seem to be any conditions."

"It seems! It seems! It seems like you are the same size!"

Lissandra said dissatisfied: "You are indeed unreliable."

Ignoring him anymore, Zuo Chi walked towards Frost Guard Fortress.

He knew very well that it was completely meaningless to say this now. If he could not defeat dozens of Void Monitors, what would happen even if the Void Cracks were sealed?
There is absolutely no difference between leaving dozens of true god-level monitors in the material realm and sending them to death.

The source of all the problems has been found, but the process of getting to the source is the most difficult!

Just as Zuo Chi was gradually moving away, Lissandra's eyes, standing in the snow, were shining with a strange ice-blue light in the snowy night.

Snowflakes fell, and Lissandra's murmur gradually faded away with the cold wind.

"Heart of Void."
-
At the same time, Runeterra is adjacent to the starry sky.

"Buzz!"

Not long after Zuo Chi left, the world barrier made of many runes suddenly became rippled again, and the ripples were getting bigger and bigger, almost spreading into a stormy sea!

Before, Zuo Chi almost tried his best, but in the end he only made ripples on this barrier, and used this to send his message to the starry sky.

But now, this barrier that Zuo Chi had tried his best to fail to shake was tumbling violently.

"Click! Click! Click!"

A few breaths later, a harsh tearing sound suddenly sounded, and many dense cracks appeared out of thin air on the barrier.

The crack gradually expanded and a huge crack was torn open!

Immediately afterwards, a figure with a golden stream of light all over his body, a flute on his waist, and a strange three-hole mask on his face slowly walked out of the crack. Then, without being affected by any rules at all, he headed towards a certain place in Runeterra. Sweeping in one direction.
