Legends of Runeterra

Shurima scones are baked very dry from the beginning in order to facilitate long-term carrying.

Coupled with the extremely dry environment of Shurima,

After trying to bite the extremely dry and hard scones, Akshan gave up the idea, picked up a small bowl beside him, poured some water into it, and then threw the scones into it.

"I just don't know what those so-called 'Ascendants' are."

While waiting for the pancakes to soften, Akshan was thinking about the rumors about the "Ascendants" that were spreading more and more across the yellow sand as the merchants moved around.

On one side is Azir, the last emperor of Shurima, and on the other side is Xerath, an ancient wizard who is rumored to have mastered the secrets of the ascension ritual.

Even people in the remote city of Marvi, far to the east of Shurima, have heard this mythical news.

Akshan's left hand moved under his cloak, and as the cloak swayed slightly, a weapon of strange shape flashed by.

Feeling the texture on the holy stone weapon named 'The Merciful One', Akshan felt a slight sense of security in his heart.

This is the weapon passed down to Akshan by his teacher Shatia. It is extremely powerful, precise and swift. In addition, it also contains an extremely amazing power...

"Boom~!"

Suddenly, above the clear sky and scorching sun, there was a loud noise like thunder.

The people who were originally resting peacefully, as well as the Shurima's unique pack animals called 'Skarash', became restless and hid away.

Only after that did the brave guys cautiously look up at the sky.

In the sky with the sun hanging high in the sky, a golden meteor streaked across the sky at high speed and fell rapidly towards a special terrain in the distance called Thousand Snake Scale Road.

"Wow~!"

"That is..."

Akshan stood up suddenly, and although he accidentally knocked over the small bowl in front of him, and the flatbread and the more precious water spilled onto the sand, he did not care about these trivial matters at all at this moment, but stared at the golden meteor in the sky.

He frowned and thought for a moment, and the next moment, Akshan stepped out of the shadows.

"Akshan!!"

An anxious cry came from behind. Akshan turned around and saw the man who had distributed scones to him earlier quickly gesturing to him, indicating that he should hide over there.

"Casker, please tell Brother Baiyi that you two can leave first. I have to go over and take a look!"

"Ake..."

Before the dark-skinned man could finish his words, Akshan squatted down and disappeared silently from his sight.

...

"Huhuhu~!"

Running in the winding and complex Thousand Snake Scales Road, the black-skinned man could clearly feel every breath. The hot air brought a faint smell of blood when passing through his nostrils.

"Ouch~!!"

"Boom~!!"

The black-skinned man rolled over to avoid the large and small stones that were raining down, and continued running with a face full of dust.

Although the expression on his face remained firm, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he had been careless.

Indeed, the complex terrain of the Thousand Snake Scale Road blocked the actions of this kind of 'Bake', but it also caused certain obstacles for him who was also unfamiliar with the terrain.

This increase and decrease directly resulted in the original expectation not being realized, and instead he and the three-headed lizard were caught in a chase that tested physical strength.

However, the 'Bakay', with a size that could take him ten steps at a time and a body filled with creepy dark magic, was destined to be the final winner in this chase.

"You can't keep running like this!"

This thought suddenly arose in my mind, and then spread rapidly like a wildfire in autumn.

He continued running forward, but the black-skinned man began to look back from time to time to check the situation of the three-headed lizard.

The axe, which had regrown a black shell during the pursuit, was now held in his hands. The heavy axe was attached to the back of his arms, ready to be swung at any time.

Finally, after a while of running, usable terrain appeared ahead.

The black-skinned man deliberately slowed down his pace, which stimulated 'Bake' behind him to speed up even more excitedly, and the fishy smell became stronger.

next second.

"Wow~!"

A slide passed through the hole, and the three-headed lizard, unable to stop, fell into it.

The other two heads, which were originally advantages, now became burdens that prevented it from struggling out.

"Roar~!"

“Crack! Crack! Crack!”

The sharp claws dug at the rock wall frantically, and the holes weathered by sand and dust suddenly flew with gravel.

"Woo~!"

The pitch-black axe whistled in the air.

"Boom~!"

"Ouch~~!!!"

The scales cracked and blood gushed out, but the three-headed lizard just let out an angry and shrill howl, and its claws dug faster and faster, without showing any sign of being hurt by the attack.

Obviously, for this 'Bakay' covered in scales, the effect of blunt force attacks is far from enough.

"For Nazumang!!"

The dark-skinned man shouted loudly, and the two pitch-black axes collided heavily with each other.

“Dang! Crack!”

The black shell shattered, revealing the sharp obsidian blade once again.

The black-skinned man jumped high and landed on the head of the largest of the three lizards.

"Roar~!"

The three-headed lizard struggled and shook violently, and the man swung his left arm.

"Pfft~!"

The obsidian blade pierced through the scales and firmly penetrated into the flesh.

Then the man's right arm and the obsidian blade turned into dark light and shadow, and began to cut the three-headed lizard's head frantically.

“Crack~Swish~!!”

Scales and flesh flew everywhere, and a white skull could be vaguely seen in the constantly gushing smelly blood.

"Ouch~~!!"

The intense pain and rage devoured the three-headed lizard's already limited sanity. It shook its head wildly and desperately, and for a moment, the shattered scales were more than those destroyed by the man.

The next moment, the black-skinned man pulled out the blade used to fix Bake as he struggled violently, kicked his feet hard, and rushed towards the other head.

"Pfft~!"

The sharp blade pierced deeply into the other head's eye, and the translucent gelatinous liquid in the eyeball flowed down the man's arm and soaked most of his chest.

"Ouch~~!!"

“BOOM~~!!”

After a violent struggle, the weathered hole that trapped the three-headed lizard collapsed directly.

"Hoo~~!!"

The other two heads bit forward with such ferocity that they seemed to want to tear the injured head off as well.

Without having time to draw out his axe, the dark-skinned man simply pulled out his arm to dodge, but after avoiding one sharp mouth, another one came to bite him.

"Dang~!"

The sharp teeth collided violently with the axe. Although the man blocked the bite, he turned into a black shadow and flew out.

"Bang~!"

“Crack~!”

Rolling to the ground like a sack, the man felt that every part of his body was in pain.
