Legends of Runeterra

'No, God, what did I do wrong? Why do so many bad things happen to me!

Professor Lemire, give me some strength!'

With his arms twisted by two figures in black robes, Lao Zhali's face, which was blown by the biting cold wind, looked pale and desolate at this moment, because half of his foot was hanging outside the bridge.

Old Chali tried hard to twist his stiff neck and looked at Lemuel who was still groping and studying in front of the door.

He wanted to shout loudly, asking Lemuel to rescue him quickly, but he didn't dare to make a sound, for fear of interrupting the other person's train of thought and letting the hope of survival slip away.

"Tick~!"

The crisp sound of a clock echoed in everyone's ears. Lemire paused anxiously and slowly turned to look at Zewen.

Lemire's face, which was still covered in sweat even in the chilly wind, looked at the other person pleadingly.

Meeting his gaze, Zewen showed a hint of regret on his face.

"What a shame, Professor Lemire, you didn't fulfill our agreement on time~!"

"No! Give me some more time, I'll almost crack it!"

"Haha~! Really?"

"Yes, that's it. Please, Zewen, for the sake of..."

Under Lemire's gaze, Zevin raised his right hand and waved it gently.

"Don't!!!"

"屮!"

Lao Zhali only had time to utter a curse before he was pushed into the pitch-black abyss.

"Om~!"

There was a flash of light, and Lao Zhali felt his arm being tightly grasped by a hand.

“Ezreal!?”

"Hey~! Hello, Lao Zhali~!"

Ezreal raised the corner of his mouth, and the gem on his gauntlet lit up again.

"Om~!"

"Click~!"

Feeling his feet on solid ground, Old Chali found himself next to Lemuel, with Ezreal standing between them.

"Good day, everyone."

“Kala~!”

When everyone's eyes were on the young man who suddenly appeared, before Zewen and his gang launched an attack, the sound of machinery turning was heard behind everyone.

"Hehe~! Sewer kebab~!"

"Get down!"

Ezreal pressed the two men's shoulders and threw them to the ground.

“Swish~swish~swish~!”

The crossbow arrows covered with alchemical poison and wrapped in a layer of green mist made continuous whistling sounds in the air.

“Puff~Puff~!”

The crossbow arrow was so powerful that it could tear directly out of the body of the person who was hit and shoot towards the next person in its path.

"Ding~ding~ding~!"

The arrow collided with the metal door, accompanied by a sharp sound and sparks.

Fortunately, Ezreal and the other two had already laid down, thus avoiding the fate of being skewered.

After five breaths, the screams and Twitch's laughter stopped, and Ezreal and the others raised their heads.

Li En was seen standing next to Tuqi, giving him a strange look.

"Tuch, your laughter just now..."

"Hehe~! Brother Li En, this is what the big sister taught me. She said it would make me look more imposing this way!"

"Oh, it seems that Baobao is not only the boss, there are many 'things' I don't know about."

"Hehe~!"

Tucci put away the alchemical-powered crossbow and scratched the furry head with his claws.

Although he always felt that what Boss Li En said was not as simple as it seemed, Tucci did not think much about it.

After all, the most that this rat can think about right now is the delicious cheese.

Seeing this, Li En just smiled slightly, took Twitch past the corpses, and walked towards Ezreal and others.

"You're so awesome, Tuqi, you're the strongest rat I've ever seen!"

The knowledgeable Ezreal walked over the pool of blood on the ground without a care in the world, praising the other party profusely.

And Lemuel, who helped old Zhali up, had a somewhat tense expression on his face.

Only Lao Zhali, the oldest man present, looked at the corpses on the ground with a pale face, but for the sake of face, he forced himself to suppress the urge to vomit.

"Hehe~! I'm the number one scout under Big Sister Jinx, so a few scumbags are definitely not a problem!"

"Shua~!"

A black shadow crawled up from the ground, and in front of everyone's gaze, he directly knocked Tuqi away, and then the sharp blade with a flashing cold light was pressed against Li En's throat.

"Don't move, raise your hands!"

Zewen held Li En hostage and roared with a ferocious face.

However, under his vicious gaze, only Lemuel quickly raised his hand, while the other two and the rat all looked at him with strange expressions.

"What are you looking at? Put your hands up quickly, or I'll send him to see Kindred!"

"Uh... Mr. Zewen, is it possible that the Li En you held hostage is the strongest among us?"

"Fuck, you little yellow-haired boy are still trying to bluff me, right? Fine, I'll satisfy you!"

Zewen grinned grimly and slightly applied force to the sharp blade against Li En's throat.

"Um!?"

Zewen's face paused and he quickly increased the strength of his hands.

"Squeak~!"

Realizing that Zewen was about to start sawing at the throat, Li En was too lazy to tease him anymore and simply held down his right hand.

“Kala~!”

"Well!"

Zewen groaned at the sharp pain in his wrist, and then his vision began to turn upside down.

"Bang~!"

With a dull thud, Zewen flew nearly ten meters and fell directly and accurately in front of Lemuel.

"The only magic item he had just now was used to resist Tucci's attack. He is no longer a threat now."

As Li En spoke, he walked towards Ezreal and the others.

"Cough cough cough~!"

There was a little blood at the corner of Zewen's mouth, his left hand was grasping his right wrist, and his pale face was covered with sweat.

"Mr. Li En, my name is Lemire. Thank you for saving my life!"

"You saved me again, Lord Li En!"

"Haha~! You're welcome, both of you."

Lemire glanced at Ezreal, resisted the urge to hit the child, and then looked down at Zevin on the ground.

"Alas! Zewen, I didn't expect you to go down this wrong path."

"Mr. Lemire, is this kidnapper an old acquaintance of yours?"

"Yes, Mr. Li En. He was once my exploration partner. However, during one of our explorations, a landslide occurred. I thought he had already...but I didn't expect that he was still alive."

Lemuel's expression was complicated. There were obviously many stories between the two of them, but Li En didn't want to find out.

"You two have suffered a lot these past few days, why don't we leave here first."

"Okay, okay, Master Li En is right, let's go!"

Lao Zhali, the oldest one and the one who could not stand the corpses on the ground the most, quickly spoke up in agreement.

"Well, that's right. As for Zevin, Ezreal, please help me take him away and hand him over to the police.

Ezreal, Ezreal?"

Lemuel shouted a few times but there was no response, then everyone turned to look.

Ezreal was seen holding the strange "key" in his right hand that Lemire had dropped when he was lying on the ground, and the gem of the Nezuk gauntlet in his left hand illuminated the metal door.

"Buzz~~!"

Under the horrified gaze of Lao Zhali, after moving to a certain position, the gem and the 'key' suddenly lit up together.

Then the 'key' turned into a ray of light and merged into the door.

“Boom~!”

When the first breath of vibration came, the solid and old bridge shattered and broke instantly.

Feeling an acute sense of weightlessness, Lao Zhali stretched his hands feebly in the air a few times, and then fell downwards as expected.

"E-Z-R-EL! F***!!!"

The heart-wrenching sound could not be covered up even by the huge noise of boulders breaking, rolling and crashing.
