Legends of Runeterra

Katarina attacked, and the dagger shot towards the mage Rey at all kinds of tricky angles.

This forced him to temporarily stop targeting Li En and concentrate on dealing with the assassin.

Without any interference, Li En felt much more relaxed instantly. With the enhanced strength of [Survival of the Fittest] and the Noxian battle axe, the two of them fought on equal terms.

"Dang~!"

The greatsword and the greataxe collided, and the sparks from the bursting of their sharp blades reflected the black mask and bronze visor.

The tree trunk, which was as thick as a thigh, was easily broken like weeds on the roadside as the two men swung their weapons.

The battlefield was like a raging beast, making it impossible for the soldiers coming to support to get close, and they could only choose to provide long-range support.

But the inferior crossbows in their hands posed no threat to Li En at all.

With Li En's deliberate pulling, the two of them broke directly into the soldiers' formation.

Suddenly, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and wailing filled the night sky.

"Asshole! All you can do is run away!"

Demeter's dull voice came out from his helmet, full of anger.

"Who told these people to be as disgusting as mosquitoes?"

Li En shook off the bloody pieces of flesh on his axe and said jokingly, "How come you, as a famous Fearless Vanguard, came here? And mixed with the mage?"

"Humph, you talkative boy, this has nothing to do with you!"

The unbearable memories were brought back again, and Demeter's eyes were filled with anger.

The speed of swinging the greatsword became faster and faster, but a smile appeared on Li En's face under the mask.

...

In the distance, Rey, as a self-awakened mage who controls the earth element, his talent is actually not that strong.

It was precisely because of his lack of talent that he was able to escape back to the countryside when the demon hunter was momentarily negligent.

Also because he was not strong enough, he was unable to protect his family when facing the pursuing soldiers and could only watch them fall in a pool of blood.

The pain of the tragic death of his relatives has always tormented Rey, and the abilities he developed as a result tend to be support and defensive.

While on high alert, facing an agile assassin like Catalina, although he couldn't quickly defeat her, Catalina's attacks couldn't pose a fatal threat to him.

For a moment, the battle between the two was at a stalemate.

...

Seeing that there was no way to pose a threat to Li En, no one was stupid enough to rush into the battle that was like a meat grinder.

Led by the deputy commander of the army, the soldiers came to Rei's side one after another.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Support this mage and kill this assassin!"

The shield soldiers advanced forward, and the crossbowmen hid in the back and shot. Katarina, who was only wearing leather armor, had to devote her energy to dodging the arrows.

"Go to hell, slow field!"

Seeing the opportunity, Rey shouted loudly, and a pale yellow light enveloped the area within a radius of ten meters around Katarina.

As the range expanded, the feeling of heaviness also weakened a lot, but the sudden increase in weight caused Katarina's movements to be deformed, and the sharp arrow was right in front of her.

"what!"

Realizing that Rey was about to capture the assassin, Demeter's attacks became more frantic, vowing to hold Li En back.

Li En let go of the axe, triggering the void power in his body, and a familiar tingling sensation came from his left eye.

With inspiration from the treatment of Orianna, and with the help of the vitality continuously provided by the True Dragon's Reverse Scale, he can perform Voidization to a limited extent.

This state has the power of voidization while avoiding a surge in erosion.

Li En named it - Void Mode.

Void mode, activated!

Void energy spread to his left arm, and the skin was deformed into hideous armor.

Countless whispers rang in my ears, and all the noise turned into one sentence - tear apart and devour everything in front of me!

Next second,

"Boom!"

Demeter's breastplate was dented and he was thrown around like a sandbag until he hit a big tree with a diameter of five or six meters, leaving a human-shaped mark.

"puff!"

Blood spurted out with fragments of internal organs, bounced back and stuck to Demeter's face, with a little bit flowing out from the gap.

Lee En threw a punch without paying attention to Demeter who was flying away. He locked onto Katarina's direction and protected himself with his left arm.

Flash step, start!

“Crack, puff!”

Under Li En's conscious control, everything between the two of them was torn to pieces.

Catalina curled up in the air to minimize her attack area, and felt herself falling into a warm but slightly prickly embrace. A familiar smell came to her nose.

"Dang Dang Dang!"

The sound of arrows colliding with armor was heard, and Catalina's heart tightened. She immediately looked up at him.

"Lee...Eh!?"

The black mask had long since shattered and disappeared, revealing a familiar face in front of Catalina. Even from her current death perspective of looking up, the other person was still so handsome.

But at this moment, Li En's left eye completely turned into a deep purple, revealing his undisguised malice towards everything in the world, as well as his crazy desire to devour.

Catalina felt her heart was tightened. The assassin's intuition and life instinct made her subconsciously want to stab the opponent with the dagger. Fortunately, Catalina reacted the moment she made the move.

"Ok?"

Li En immediately noticed Katarina's abnormality. Worried that the void would have a bad influence on her, Li En quickly turned his head away.

The next moment, the Void Instant Step was activated, and the two appeared on a big tree three hundred meters away.

"Sorry to scare you, wait a moment!"

After Li En finished speaking, he activated the instant step and returned to the battlefield.

Before Lei Yi and the others could react to the shock, they saw Li En appear in front of them again.

"Crystal Shield!"

Lei Yi put on shields for the dozen or so sword and shield warriors in front of him and called out, "I've added shields for you, come on!"

The soldiers looked at each other for a few seconds. Perhaps the earth elemental shields on their bodies gave them courage, and they formed a formation again and slowly moved forward.

...

After twisting the last man's neck, Li En came to Demeter's side.

There was a dent in the other person's chest that was deeper than his wrist, his upper body was leaning against the tree trunk, and extremely weak breathing sounds came from inside the helmet.

Reaching out to take off his helmet, a resolute face of a man in his thirties appeared in front of Li En.

The other party opened his bloodshot eyes with difficulty and spoke to himself: "Secret Silver City... Atas Cemetery, Tombstone No. 6097..., help me... bury it... next to it!"

As he spoke, he tremblingly took off a broken necklace from his neck and slowly held it in front of Li En.

Li En tilted his head, saw the other person's eyes, and inexplicably reached out to take it.

"The sword... is for you!"

After saying this, Demeter lowered his head and fell silent.

"Strange guy, even if you die, the sword will still be mine!"

As Li En said this, he put the necklace into his arms.

Picking up the greatsword made of rune steel, void energy surged into the soles of his feet, and a crack appeared under Demeter.

Watching the other person's body fall into the crack, Li En manipulated it to close again.

After taking a quick glance at the battlefield and confirming that there was no remaining void breath and no other clues, Li En released the void mode.

Use instant step to leave the scene.

...

When Catalina came to her senses, she felt happy, worried and guilty.

She was happy that Li En came back safely, but she was worried that something was obviously wrong with Li En's condition. The power was so terrifying that it was beyond her imagination!

The guilt was that when facing Li En who had just saved him, he almost stabbed him with a dagger.

Even if he realized it later, how could Li En, who had also received training, not see it!

For a moment, she didn't know how to face Li En. Looking at the rapidly decreasing fire in the distance, Katarina actually had the urge to escape.
