Legends of Runeterra

"Ouch~~!!"

"Hoo~~!!"

Listening to the increasingly loud roars outside the temple, Alune knew very well that this was because Aphelios rushed into the black fog.

But despite her deep concern for Aphelios' safety, Alune couldn't get up or even move at all.

She had to keep praying for the "power of the bright moon". Otherwise, even if Aphelios could break through the black fog and enter the Guihai Maru Temple, without the protection of the holy temple, the brother and sister would still be doomed.

“Hiss~Ahhhh!!!”

The shrill screams never stopped, but Aphelios did not hesitate at all.

After pouring all the 'Essence of Night' into his mouth at once, Aphelios gained unprecedented magic power.

At this moment, Aphelios was constantly using 'Tongbi' and 'Duanpo' in rotation, and he was killing indiscriminately in the black fog as if he was in an empty space.

'Faster! Faster! ! '

Aphelios kept urging himself in his heart.

Although the faint, blood-thicker-than-water connection has never been severed, Aphelios dared not slack off. He had to reach Alune as quickly as possible to ensure the safety of his only relative.

After all, for the ideals of the Lunari Cult, Alune chose to enter the spiritual realm with the Guihai Maru Temple, which only allowed one person to exist.

She endured the endless loneliness alone, just to provide herself with the 'Moonstone Weapon' she made herself to kill those evil spirits.

No matter what, Aphelios would never allow the evil to harm Alune.

“Tear it up~!”

The limbs that attacked rapidly in the black fog were torn apart by the scarlet "Soul Breaker", but this time it was not as smooth as before, but inevitably there was a slight delay.

Feeling the wear and tear of the weapon in his hand, Aphelios' heart sank slightly.

At this time of the day, Alune would always promptly hand over a new 'Moonstone Weapon', but now the connection between the two had already been severely disrupted.

Not to mention delivering weapons, he couldn't even communicate with Alune.

“Tear it up~!”

"Click~!"

The sound of evil spirits being torn apart and the sound of the shattered soul rang out simultaneously.

Aphelios turned his left hand to 'Tongbi'.

"Shua~!"

The emerald green bullets cut through the black fog and accurately hit the monster attacking from the side.

The killing continued, but without a weapon, Aphelios' efficiency inevitably dropped sharply.

...

"Bang~!"

"Click~!"

The fist wrapped in magic power was swung out, and the sharp claws with countless barbs shattered under this punch.

Despite gaining the advantage in the fight, Aphelios involuntarily took a few steps back.

"Huhuhu~!"

Gasping heavily, Aphelios stared at the black fog that was constantly rolling around him.

If it weren't for that faint connection, Aphelios would have been lost in the black fog long ago.

But even with the guidance, Aphelios was still firmly held back by the almost endless evil.

Having lost his two 'moonstone weapons', he was trapped in the last section and could not move forward.

“Hiss~Ahhh~~!!”

As if sensing that Aphelios was at the end of his strength, countless sharp whistles were heard in the surrounding black fog.

As if their numbers had not been reduced by Aphelios's frenzied killing spree, there were still astonishing numbers of monsters hidden in the thick black fog.

"Huhuhu~!"

The foul smell of air mixed with evil blood rushed into Aphelios' nose, but at this moment he could no longer distinguish the smell.

The magic brought by the 'Essence of Night' has gradually faded at this moment, replaced by increasingly clear and endless pain.

Staring closely at the rolling black fog, Aphelios' sight, which had turned black due to an overdose of poison, seemed to cross the black fog and pass through the ancient and mysterious Guihaimalu Temple. He saw a slender figure kneeling quietly in front of the statue.

'I'm sorry, Laluen, I...'

"Buzz~~!!"

A spatial rift opened up in front of Aphelios, and two figures emerged from it.

'This is...'

Staring intently at the figure in silver armor that looked like the 'Moon Goddess', the poison erupted and Aphelios' eyes went dark.

"Crack~!"

Grabbing the man who was about to fall to the ground covered in blood with one hand, Li En turned to look at Diana beside him.

"Diana, this person seems to be from the Bright Moon Cult?"

"Well, although it's faint, I can sense the breath of 'the moon' in him."

"Well, I'll treat him first. These evil spirits..."

"give it to me!"

Diana accepted the task of destroying the evil spirit without any hesitation. The magical power of the 'Astral Body' allowed her to easily recover most of her condition after just a short teleportation.

These evil spirits in front of her at this moment are terrifying to mortals, but to Diana, they are just a bunch of chickens and dogs.

Li En nodded, then turned his attention to the man in his left hand.

With a slight force of his arms, the seriously injured man was lifted up by an invisible force and lay flat in the air half a meter above the ground.

Looking at the other person's face which was obviously poisoned and covered with dark blood vessels, as well as his behavior when he appeared around Guihai Maru Temple, Li En vaguely understood the other person's identity.

"Aphelios was in trouble because he didn't expect the evil spirit to come and snipe him."

Seeing Aphelios's bad condition, Li En did not hesitate, and the golden and red aura, along with the bond talent [Absolution] from Morgana, rushed towards the opponent's body.

The deadly poison of the Night Blooming Flower was purified without any resistance under the effect of [Absolution].

Then, the vigorous vitality brought by the golden and red aura quickly replenished Aphelios' almost exhausted organs.

"Sniff~ Exhale~! Sniff~ Exhale~!"

A strong breathing sound was heard.

At the same time, Diana, who was not far away, also locked onto the source of the evil behind the black fog.

"Om~!"

A cool, crystal-clear, bright light emerged around her.

The next moment.

"Buzz~~!!!"

An unprecedentedly intense light suddenly appeared, and the black fog and the monsters hidden in it were completely annihilated without even a trace being uttered.

The night sky, which was originally exceptionally bright due to the "moon conjunction" night, now seemed a little dim in this endless light.

After dozens of seconds, the bright light slowly went out.

"Hoo~!"

It didn't take much effort to kill these evil spirits, but it took some effort to track down the source hiding in the spiritual realm. Diana breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Li En.

"Don't worry, this Bright Moon Cult believer is fine."

"Well, thank you. Those evil spirits have been completely eliminated."

Staring into Lee En's dark and gentle eyes, Diana felt a sense of relief.

Although she is a 'Star Spirit', she is currently capable of destruction and killing, but to be honest, she is not very confident in manipulating the 'Power of the Star Spirit' to heal the seriously injured and dying.
