Chapter 914 Lissandra
"Is this... Frostguard Fortress?"
After the initial shock of teleportation, Ashe and Sejuani both noticed the magnificent fortress in front of them and said in unison.
Then their eyes naturally met. Ashe's slender figure flickered slightly in her bright eyes, while Sejuani, who was relatively strong and more resolute, showed a hint of disgust.
The two were playmates when they were young. Ashe's mother, Glenna, was once Sejuani's idol, but because of Sejuani's grandmother and the conflicts in the tribe, they had to stop contacting each other when they were 10 years old.
Later, they each became war mothers, and their different ideas brought them greater differences. Ashe advocated unity, Sejuani advocated conquest, and was very annoyed that Ashe failed to inherit Glenna's will, so the two sides gradually became enemies.
In simple terms, it can be compared to the first generation of Hokage and Uchiha Madara in Naruto. Ashe's personality is more like the first generation, while Sejuani is more like Madara.
However, even Sejuani couldn't get angry at the moment, not only because of Ji Xing, but also because the Frost Guard tribe was their common enemy.
She turned and nodded to Volibear, and Ashe greeted Anivia. The two demigods were allies of the two tribes and their greatest military support, otherwise they would not have the qualifications to stand side by side with the Frost Witch.
"Volibear, Anivia, we three haven't been together for thousands of years, right? I didn't expect to meet again in this way." The goat-headed giant Ornn said in a humming voice: "Human mage Sewell, your power is more extensive than that of the true god, why did you summon us here?"
"For the void." Ji Xing said concisely.
"Is it really the void?" Ornn stared at the fortress in front of him: "Is the disaster left by the witch finally going to erupt again?"
"The legend... is really true." Sejuani said coldly: "The Frost Witch attracted the void and killed her sisters."
"Heh!" Volibear suddenly snorted coldly.
Its body, which looks like a bear, is as big as a small mountain. It doesn't suppress its voice like Ornn, but its cold snort is like thunder. If it is on the edge of a snowy mountain, it would be enough to cause an avalanche.
Sejuani looked at it in confusion, and Ji Xing said, "Legends are always incomplete. I have no intention of explaining Lissandra, whom I have never met. I just hope that you can look at that ancient history dialectically."
Sejuani frowned, and Olaf, who fell to the ground as she let go, pulled up his pants, thinking that the mage was going to start talking about something difficult to understand again.
"In the past few years, I have specially collected some records about that time. That was the history long before Shurima was swallowed by the yellow sand and the Shurima Empire was established. It belonged to the era of gods.
Demigods walked in the world one by one, and even true gods would often appear in the world. Humans could only survive in the cracks and live humbly.
The three sisters Lissandra, Serilda, and Avarosa were the hope that appeared in that dark era. They saved many people from death, and these people may include your ancestors. The ice people must at least remember this kindness."
"Maybe she was a hero." Ashe said, "But what she did over the years... If you want to make peace for us, even if it is because of the void, please forgive me for not being able to accept it!"
Her mother Glenna was killed by the Frost Guard because she investigated that period of history. Her tribe was almost slaughtered by the Frost Guard. The current Avarosa tribe was rebuilt by her bit by bit!
She will not let go of such hatred.
"I didn't say peace, nor did I ask you to let go of your hatred." Ji Xing said, "I just want you and everyone to know more about Lissandra. She is a piece of history that is worth knowing."
The gate of the fortress creaked open, and dozens of powerful frost guards escorted Lissandra out. Lissandra, who has lived for tens of thousands of years, was full of the aura of a queen, and said coldly: "Know me better? Go on, I want to hear your evaluation."
If it were other people, they would be frozen into ice when they mentioned that history, but Ji Xing was different. Ji Xing... was very strong.
So strong that even if she used the forbidden magic prepared for the void, she was not completely sure. After feeling this fact, she was fully prepared mentally, with all kinds of meanings.
In her heart, Ji Xing was an existence of the same or even higher level as her, and it was naturally not offensive to evaluate her. She just hoped that Ji Xing would not hear some myths from hearsay and let her go back disappointed.
Ashe and others cast a suppressed look at Lissandra, and Ji Xing nodded to her.
"Cerilda tried to master the power of the heavens and lost her voice to the nascent Twilight Aspects. Avarosa was deprived of her hearing in the face of the Everhunters who were taking shape in the darkness. You were blinded in the battle with the demigod."
Ji Xing glanced at Volibear, who thundered, "Mortals who despise the gods should be punished accordingly!"
It was Volibear who blinded Lissandra, but Lissandra had no intention of revenge. Ji Xing ignored it and continued, "The power of you three sisters was the pinnacle of mortals at that time, but there was still an essential gap with true gods and demigods. The successive defeats made you watch the people you protected die in natural disasters and divine disasters, and the feeling of powerlessness filled your heart with darkness in your eyes.
So you were taken advantage of by the Void."
No, this is not right. I took the initiative... Lissandra thought, and was suddenly stunned.
"The Void has been watching you for a long time, and took the opportunity to tempt you. You really regarded it as a life-saving straw, deeply attracted by the god-like power of the Void Watcher, and accepted the power of the Void with your two sisters.
You have become stronger, and you can protect more people, but conflicts are also growing among the three sisters. Because you are the only one tempted by the Void, Serilda and Avarosa gradually don't understand your idea of serving the Void as the Lord - what is the difference between that and submitting to demigods and true gods?"
Ji Xing's voice echoed in the ice field, like a cold wind blowing into Lissandra's heart: "You turned against each other, and they brought tribal warriors to stop you from opening the Void channel, but you insisted on your own way until the moment the channel was opened. You saw the truth of the destruction of the Void, and finally awakened, activated the forbidden magic, and buried the Void channel and your two sisters in the ice."
I was... tempted by the Void?
No, no! This is just a superfluous explanation!
That was my active choice, and the final result was perfect. Although there were sacrifices, the ice field finally became the territory of humans!
Lissandra's mind was full of mixed thoughts.
As for Ashe and Sejuani, they had also heard of this legend. Except for the fact that Lissandra was tempted by the void, it was exactly the same as what they knew.
But the difference between them... is as big as heaven and earth.
"Was she influenced by the void? No, even if that was the case, she later..."
"Up to that time, in my eyes, Lissandra's merits and demerits were probably equal. I think if Serilda and Avarosa knew the strangeness of the power of the void, they would forgive you, their sister.
At that time, you were still a hero who protected Runeterra and the tribe. It can even be said that if it weren't for your awakening, the void chose to seduce other people, and Runeterra might have no future long after that.
But the guilt of killing your sister tortured you day and night, making you continue to slide into the abyss.
The influence of the void on you became deeper and deeper, and you began to "break the jar and break the pot", thinking that as long as you hide this history, you can completely forget it.
You established the Frost Guard tribe, killed all those who knew about it, and even hunted down the reincarnations of Serilda and Avarosa."
Ji Xing looked at Lissandra and said, "As for the evaluation after that, I don't need to say it, right?"
Heh, fallen?
Lissandra "looked" at Ashe and Sejuani.
They are the reincarnations of Avarosa and Serilda. The comrades and sisters who were once as close to her have now become the culprits who tortured her. No matter how cruel she is, no matter how hard she tries, that history will always be dug out from the corner of the iceberg and hurt her heart!
Is it the void?
I thought I froze the void watcher, but it never let me go?
No, that's not right, this is just Sewell's conjecture! Rather than being tempted by the void without realizing it, Lissandra feels that she has always acted out of her own will! There is not so much background, not so many conspiracies and intrigues, this is me, the frost witch, Lissandra!
Unlike her, Ashe and Sejuani believed most of it, because they didn't understand part of the legend. Why did one of the three ice sisters who led the tribe to fight for a piece of heaven and earth in the age of gods become so evil?
It turns out that everything is the pot of the void.
But... why did Sewell say this? Still hoping that we can unite with the Frostguard tribe and work together to fight against the void?
Ashe couldn't accept it, and Sejuani was even unhappy about cooperating with Ashe.
"I thought you would say something different, Sewell." At this time, Lissandra said in a gloomy voice: "It turns out that it was just hearsay, plus your own conjecture."
"Maybe." Ji Xing smiled: "This is indeed just the biggest possibility in my understanding. No one can go back in time. The truth has been filled in the ice and snow forever."
"Then what do you mean today?"
"Give you, the human guardian ten thousand years ago, the hero who stopped a void invasion, the last bit of respect, and..." He looked at Ashe and Sejuani: "End the era of chaos among the three tribes in the ice field, and end the feud between you three sisters of ice that spanned ten thousand years of reincarnation."
Woo——
A cold air spread out from Lissandra's body, and her words were just as cold.
"What do you mean?"
"Your achievements and power were enough to be deified, and even death will not bring an end." Ji Xing said calmly: "And your two sisters have been waiting for you for ten thousand years, you should go to accompany them."
Ashe, Sejuani and others were shocked.
They understood Ji Xing's slightly concealed words. He wanted to kill the Frost Witch? !
This shocked them more than his words for them, because the reason why Piltover Islands can now become the core of the world is not only because Sewell is so powerful that he is above the entire world, but also because he... doesn't mind his own business.
He has never had a record of forcing other countries by force. Even Sejuani, who complained in her heart, had to admit that the ascension potion Ji Xing gave after Demacia was really good.
Only when the strongest person who does not take action can deter the world, can the world be convinced. When he shows off his strength, he can only arouse everyone's fear and defense!
Why? Is it because of the approaching void?
Or is it because the Frost Witch is special?
"Hehe." Lissandra suddenly laughed softly: "Is this a judgment?"
The extreme frost suddenly expanded from under her feet, and the surface of the land, which was originally an ice field, was covered with deep blue ice.
The frost guards around her turned into ice sculptures in an instant, and the ice above absolute zero slowed down time!
Ji Xing raised his hand, and a hint of blue appeared.
"I didn't say it accurately enough. The three ice sisters who guarded the ice field all died in the void disaster ten thousand years ago. Today I am here to bury a walking corpse that has lived for ten thousand years."
The magic energy echoed!
Buzz——
The space-time within a radius of one kilometer trembled, and the rules of magic were rudely rewritten by Ji Xing! Lissandra's ice suddenly lost control!
Her face, which had been expressionless for ten thousand years, flashed a trace of astonishment, and the ice that rolled back first bound her legs and then climbed up.
Cold.
She didn't know how many years she hadn't felt this kind of thing, which made her memory go back to ten thousand years ago in an instant, when the two girls were wrapped in short animal skins that couldn't cover too much of their bodies, shivering and hugging each other.
"Li, Lissandra, aren't you cold?"
"Of course! I have awakened the strongest iceborn bloodline on this land and have magic. Not only will I not be cold, I will also make everyone in the ice field no longer afraid of the cold! Serilda, Avarosa, you two idiots, follow me!"
Seven or eight-year-old Lissandra lay in the ice cave with her back to them, her snot was frozen into ice ridges, but she responded so stubbornly.
Despicable, ridiculous. Memories faded, Lissandra gave the first evaluation to Ji Xing, and the second evaluation to herself.
It doesn't matter whether she was tempted by the void or not.
What matters is that Lissandra hopes that what Ji Xing said is true, which is a relief for her.
The nightmare that tormented her for ten thousand years will be mostly gone, she really... doesn't want to kill them!
"Freeze!!"
The majestic shout echoed in her throat, and it seemed to resound throughout the ice field. The magic energy in her body gushed out, regardless of Ji Xing's twisting of the magic rules, and she exerted all her strength.
Layers of frost swirled and formed a dazzling sphere, which expanded the world.
When she was completely buried in the frost, Lissandra had a final thought in her mind: Can I also reincarnate like Avarosa and Serilda? No, it's better not to. Ashe and Sejuani are already so old, and I'm just starting to reincarnate now, so can I only be their daughter? That's worse than being a sister...
The wind and snow fell suddenly.
The continent of Freljord seemed to be shaking for the death of the Frost Witch, and the biting cold wind cut everyone's face like a knife!
The great enemy died just like this, and the Frost Witch used ice as her grave, but Ashe and Sejuani didn't see joy on their faces, but a depressed look.
Maybe I am really the reincarnation of Avarosa (Cerilda)? Such thoughts flashed through their minds at the same time, Sejuani snorted unhappily, and Ashe clenched her fists with a firm expression.
As the demigod of the Freljord Guardian, Anivia felt a little sad, Volibear was only shocked by Ji Xing's power, and Ornn closed his eyes, as if to see off the Frost Witch.
Dealing with a fallen hero is always more difficult than dealing with a pure enemy.
Ji Xing wiped the frost off his cheeks and said, "Okay, everyone, let's go to the Howling Abyss."
I didn't expect that many book friends would have a lot of opinions about not asking for leave in the future. I thought that asking for leave would always make everyone come with high hopes and leave disappointed, so I didn't post it. Anyway, there are only a few days of no updates every month, and it won't make everyone wait too much in vain.
But I didn't think much. Some book friends are right. This is a matter of respect. Then if I ask for leave for something in the future, I will still deduct a single chapter for everyone... Well, there are still a lot of things to do in April. Siyang also plans to plant a post in the middle of the month. Don't be annoyed, just wait and see.
