In the alliance, the more they attack me, the stronger I become!

After countless centuries, the Void Watchers have gradually shown signs of awakening.

Their single eye watches the world from beneath the ice, ready to greedily devour everything as soon as the dream is awakened.

Lissandra constantly uses other people's dreams to lull monsters into sleep, but this balance is not stable.

Once someone violently overturns the cradle of the watchers...

The consequences could be disastrous.

That would be a catastrophe far beyond the Freljord... Even a demigod like the Volibear would be powerless before the Void. When that happens, all the grudges and hatreds of Runeterra will pale into insignificance—in the moment of annihilation of everyone and everything, nothing will matter.

The research on the black rose, the love-hate relationship between the three sisters, the feud between the Frost Witch and Volibear... none of it matters anymore.

Even LeBlanc's greatest fear, her former "king" Mordekaiser, would pale into insignificance.

I hope that crazy woman doesn't release hungry lions just to stop a vicious dog...

"We have to hurry...faster."

Cheng Xiao looked towards the north vigilantly, while the mammoth under him was running at full speed.

The only three mammoths of the Dalwalli tribe were ridden away by him, Ashe and Sejuani. Each mammoth even carried a well-fed Juvask boar.

As soon as the giant elephants are exhausted, they will immediately switch to the Juvask boars.

After the Juvask boar falls, they will run on their own two legs again.

I didn't dare to stop for a moment.

The journey, which originally took at least two days, had to be compressed into one night.

Although... even if we arrive overnight, it will probably be too late.

Now we can only hope that the crazy woman won't do anything wrong.

"LeBlanc..."

---------------------------------------------

-------------------------

Compared to the hard journey of Cheng Xiao and the other two, Queen Lissandra of Freljord seemed much more relaxed.

It's also much faster.

In just a few hours, she returned to her Frost Castle from the distant Nelzayag.

It was as quiet outside the door as ever.

The deep corridor inside... is different from usual.

At least, there aren't usually any corpses lying here.

A feeling of unease spread in Lissandra's heart, and a chill that she hadn't felt in many years climbed up her spine and rushed to her head.

She had long lost her sight, and there was no one alive in the castle, so the candlelight in the corridor she walked through was extinguished.

The stranger she hated so much no longer hid his magic power, and the cunning breath of magic came from the depths of the castle.

The further Lisan Zhuoyue walked inside, the heavier her mood became.

She became more and more convinced that the damned woman had discovered the secret she had hidden for countless centuries.

Even... there has been some contact.

Exiting the deep east-west corridor, the magnificent castle was left behind. Lisanjue passed the last door that had long been opened and felt the dilapidated stone bridge for the first time in a long time.

This bridge has many names: Trial Ground, Murder Bridge, and others. But others simply call it Keep Bridge, or the Howling Vault. If it had a name in the time of the Three Sisters, it has been lost.

Within the Frostguard, it's often called the Bridge of Sorrow. After all, thousands of Iceborn have perished here.

And now... Lissandra, the mistress of the Frostguard, may also meet her end here.

"If only this were just a stolen nightmare..."

Lissandra stretched out her hand, and a winding ice path immediately extended from the edge of the broken stone bridge.

She began to walk down.

With every step she took, the aura of the void grew thicker. After thousands of years, she once again felt its presence.

Her former "teacher"...

She wasn't sure if the damned outsider was releasing them, but the only consolation now was that they hadn't broken the seal yet - for now.

Perhaps when she reaches the deepest part, those monsters will just wake up with their fangs and claws bared.

The surrounding environment is getting colder and colder, and the light from the outside can no longer shine into this bottomless abyss.

Lissandra knew she had to hurry... get there as quickly as possible, but her body wasn't listening. Every fiber of her being fought, a voice deep inside her screaming, warning her to get out of here.

Finally, after countless inner struggles, her next step did not step into nothingness.

Instead, he stepped on solid ice.

The pure ice obtained by the entire snowman tribe.

At the same time, she also heard the disgusted voice: "You are finally here, respected Frost Witch. I have been waiting here for a long time, and I almost couldn't wait any longer."

Lissandra's heart sank.

Waiting for a long time... means this damn woman has extra time.

This means that she has already understood the secret beneath the ice.

"You damned Noxian... what do you want?"

"doing what?"

LeBlanc smiled charmingly, and her white fingertips stroked the True Ice Wall in the darkness - the materialized entity that sealed the world's passage.

"Of course I want to play a game with everyone~"

As she spoke, the fingertips she placed on the ice wall glowed with magical light.

Lissandra was horrified and quickly raised her hand to summon ice.

But the next moment, she stopped in time - she knew that she could not be faster than the other party.

She couldn't kill LeBlanc instantly before she released her magic.

The consequence of acting rashly...is that the observer's sweet dreams are disturbed.

Then I was woken up.

"You're a smart person." Leblanc chuckled again, "That's why we need to be smart so that our game can continue~"

"You bastard..." Lissandra gritted her teeth, but was helpless.

Leblanc followed the magic light and admired the huge single eye under the ice again.

Even though that ancient being had been dormant for tens of millions of years, she could still feel the surging magical power... so powerful, so terrifying.

That is definitely a power that can destroy the world.

So, what should we do now?

LeBlanc is no fool, but she's very good at role-playing games.

She can play a fool who knows nothing.

"Welcome, respected Frost Witch. Now, the game begins~"

LeBlanc snapped her fingers lightly, and a massive ball of dark magic began to circle back and forth beside the ice wall.

"Let me announce the first item of the game~"

"Mission one, I need you to help me capture Cheng Xiao—use your strongest magic to freeze him. Then I'll take him away to my loving little home with him, and I won't bother you any more."

"Completing the mission is like winning the game, and everyone is happy and congratulating~"

"But if you don't do your job well... well..."

LeBlanc looked embarrassed again.

After a moment, she smiled brightly.

"The punishment for losing the game is that I will open your Pandora's Box~"

Chapter 57 This is a big gamble

Faster, faster...

There is no time to stop, you must do everything possible to get there...

Before the void arrives.

Boom——!

Faced with the closed door, Cheng Xiao did not hesitate at all and blew it up with a thunderbolt.

Such behavior naturally attracted the attention of the Frostguard. The Drakrons on the city walls raised their staffs or drew their bows, as if ready to execute the troublemakers on the spot.

But just as they were about to launch their attack, a voice mingled with the whistling wind beside them... a cold and commanding voice, commanding them to stop.

The troublemaker jumped up from the ground, and his terrifying strength allowed him to leap over the high city wall like Superman.

The other two behind him also rushed into the castle through the gap in the dilapidated and burning gate.

"They..." The Drakrons hesitated. On the one hand, they wanted to fulfill their duties, but on the other hand, they were not sure whether the voice they just heard was the order of the Frost Witch.

Cheng Xiao was too lazy to waste time with them.

While the crowd was hesitating at the edge of the corridor, he rushed forward, his whole body covered with lightning.

Anyone who touches his body will be struck by lightning. Although it is not fatal, the sour feeling will definitely make them lie down for the whole day.

"Get out of here if you don't want to die!"

Cheng Xiao's words are a double entendre.

Of course, the Drakrons didn't understand at this moment.

The only ones who could understand were Ashe and Sejuani.

It took them a whole night... They set out at dawn and didn't arrive at Frost Castle until sunrise the next day. If what Cheng Xiao said was true, then they were too late.

It's too late.

That cunning and terrifying Noxian woman must have touched upon the crisis of world destruction.

Even Cheng Xiao may not be able to prevent the world-destroying crisis from happening now, but it will definitely happen if Cheng Xiao can't get through it.

"Sejuani, get ready!"

Ashe had already taken off her longbow as she caught up, blue magic condensing between her white fingers.

Sejuani nodded and held the chain hammer firmly in her hand.

During the night's journey, they had already learned from Cheng Xiao about the existence of the Void, and they also knew what terrible things would happen if the Noxian woman released the Void.

They have even vaguely guessed some secrets about the three sisters... Through association, they can feel that the secrets under the Frost Castle and everything Lissandra has done may be closely related to that buried history.

"This way."

Passing through the magnificent main castle, Cheng Xiao saw a dilapidated stone bridge full of traces of time - the Bridge of Sorrow.

And right below the bridge is the endless abyss.

Howling Abyss

Lissandra's buried secrets lie beneath. This is where the Void Watchers first glimpsed the material realm.

Cheng Xiao jumped down from the stone bridge without hesitation and landed on a gap. While he was thinking about how to quickly dive to the bottom of the abyss, Ashe, with his excellent eyesight, discovered that many solid ice blocks were protruding from both sides of the cliff.

It's like a staircase made of solid ice.

Leading to the deepest part of the world.

"It's the path left by the Frost Witch," Ashe guessed. "She's waiting for us to pass by."

"It seems we are thinking alike."

Cheng Xiao nodded and rushed down the long ice crystal steps.
