he came from the void

Seeing that Anivia had been moved to a safe place, Kahn's tension eased slightly, but his suspicion of Lissandra would not be reduced by half.

"No, just put it here, don't touch anyone, get out."

Karn watched Lissandra closely until she walked out of the ice room with them.

Taking advantage of Lissandra's inattention, the moment before the ice room was sealed, he took out a piece of armor and threw it into the crack of the door.

Chapter 722 Arrow of Ice

Taking advantage of Lissandra's inattention, the moment before the ice room was sealed, Kahn took out a piece of armor and threw it into the crack of the door.

The armor slipped into the darkness, and when the three of them walked away, they suddenly grew insect feet, crawled to the corner and fixed themselves on the ceiling, and then opened a single eye to point at the ice egg, staring at the ice egg silently and secretly. Everything that happened in the ice room.

This is Kahn's backhand. He will check the "monitoring" from time to time. If he finds that someone is plotting against Anivia, he will immediately control the Cyclops to shoot a cracking ray to penetrate it. Tear open the wormhole and find it yourself.

If possible, Kahn didn't want to put Anivia here hastily.Putting her here was a last resort, as they were trying to convince Volibear next, and it was too late to transport the eggs from Frostguard Hold to Rakstark.

"Anivia said that in the shortest winter, ten or eight years at the most, the watcher will be able to break the seal. Aren't you worried?" Kahn suddenly said while walking on the streets of the main castle.

Lissandra knew it was meant for her, and Kahn was dissatisfied that she hadn't done anything, so she asked back, "What's the use of worrying?"

"Then wait for death?" Kahn asked again, this time Lissandra had nothing to say.

Anyone who dared to talk to her like that was frozen into ice sculptures.But she couldn't move him, and she had to count on him to make up for the mistakes she had made.

"I know you're looking for a way around. If you don't tell me, maybe I can help you," Lissandra said.

"No, just don't get in our way."

As she expected, Kahn just whined and didn't let her know what they were trying to do.They were not walking aimlessly, Kahn was leading them to the gate of Frostguard Fortress, and it seemed that they were about to leave.

"Can you still enter the Overseer dream?" Kai'Sa asked.

"It's already awakened, and it resists my entry." Lissandra replied, because she could no longer enter the dreamland to affect the watchers, so she had time to take a walk with Kahn and the others in the main castle.

Kai'Sa lowered her head in thought, and the two sides agreed tacitly not to mention the Frostguard attack.

Lissandra asked the Frostguard to take Nunu away because he wanted the Ice Gem, and Kahn enlisted the help of the Ice Crystal Phoenix, so the Ice Gem was no longer needed, but this would never be the case.Just like Lissandra summoned the Watcher and later sealed it, can this matter be forgotten?

There wasn't much to say, but when they came to the gate of the fortress to say goodbye to Lissandra, Kahn and Kai'Sa walked into the snowstorm without looking back.

Back in Rakstark, Karn and Anne Nunu met them, but Nunu complained that Ashe was very busy recently, they brought back a group of people for Avarosa, and Ashe didn't have time to welcome them them.

"I heard that the war in the north is getting tight again." Annie stopped playing games with Tibbers, and said to Kahn with frowning eyebrows.

Born in Noxus, even though she grew up on the edge of the empire, she understood what war was.

"It's because of something again this time." Kahn sat down and was ready to listen to her.

"It seems to be because of the bear man, I don't know anything else."

"Okay, I see." Kahn touched Annie's little head, and it was too demanding to expect a child to tell the reason.

He and Kaisha glanced at each other, and the latter understood his intentions. After sitting for a while, the two went out to find Ashe.

Ashe was not in the city, but they saw the ice eagle and followed it to the woods outside the city, where they found Ashe.

From a distance, they saw Ashe squatting on a dead tree, holding an ice bow in her hand, facing the statue of Avarosa, the cloak behind her flapping in the wind.

She seemed to be engrossed, and kept a motionless posture for a long time, but as soon as Kahn stepped within a hundred feet, Ashe immediately stood up and turned around vigilantly, drawing the bow and aiming in one go.

"Who!"

She put her face close to the bow of Avarosa, closed one eye to aim better, and a crystal arrow formed of pure cold air began to emerge, which was born under the magic summon contained in the longbow.

Kahn, who was targeted, knew that the cedar in front of him couldn't stop Ashe's sharp arrow, so he and Kai'Sa came out from behind the bunker, and appeared in Ashe's vision openly.

After seeing the two of them, Ashe was taken aback, and one of her closed eyes opened in surprise.But in the moment of stupefaction, the ice crystal arrow continued to form, the temperature around her plummeted, frost spread from her feet, and the dead tree she was standing on was gradually frozen, and ice flowers grew.

When the cold air threatened to take her away, she finally let go and let the arrow fly out.But the moment before she let go, she slightly changed the shooting angle, allowing the arrow to pass through the gap between the two.

Kahn's actions surprised her. In that one-hundredth of a second, she saw Kahn's eyes and head actually follow the passing arrow and turn, and his gaze completely tracked the arrow's body. .

It's not hard to see where the arrows go, as her arrows glow with magic and leave trails in the air like shooting stars.But tracking the body of the arrow with the naked eye is terrifying, at least she has never seen anyone who can do this.

A ridiculous idea popped up in her mind, she thought if he wanted to, would he be able to catch her arrow?

It's just that Kahn didn't do this. He watched the arrow fall behind him and hit a cedar, which produced a deafening explosion at the same time.A deadly frost spreads, freezing everything it touches.Kahn looked at the frosty hillside behind him, the chill seemed to linger on his face.

Ashe is so much stronger than other Iceborn warmothers, not only because of the divine bow in her hand, but also because she can fully exert the power in her blood.

"Why are you guys? Are you okay?" When Kahn came back to his senses, Ashe jumped down from the tree and walked towards them.

Kaisha shook her head and said it was okay."What are you doing?" she asked.

"Get away from the busy business, and be alone for a while." Ashe turned her head to look at the statue of Avarosa, suddenly lowered her head sadly, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "You can also think that I am escaping .”

"Then we won't bother you." Kaisha held Kahn's hand and returned the same way, leaving Ashe a space to be alone, but was stopped by Ashe after walking a few steps.

"Wait." Ashe said: "It's useless to escape, whoever told them to regard me as the reincarnation of Avarosa. Let's talk about it here."

Kai'Sa didn't understand the meaning of Ashe's words, she asked, "Don't you?"

Ashe just shook her head and said nothing.

Chapter 723 The Eagle and the Rosary

Over the years, when everyone thought Ashe was the reincarnation of Avarosa, only she didn't think so.

In order to find Avarosa's inheritance, her mother and oath father died in the pursuit of the Frost Guards, and she was the only one left in the whole tribe who came to Gushuangkou, but all she found there was a lonely grave and A longbow, and endless disappointment.

In the beginning, she saved those helpless furnace households from the hands of Winter's Claw, just out of loneliness and responsibility.

Her mother thought they were no different from domestic animals and led them to a dead end, while her sisters regarded them as moths and wanted to kill them.

These are all what she has seen and heard. She feels that these furnace households are human beings and should not be treated like this.

Perhaps because of her kindness and the ice bow behind her, people associate her with the benevolent and wise Avarosa, but in fact these are actions Ashe made out of her own will, and she never Guided by Avarosa.

Maybe she really has a connection with Avarosa somewhere, and in order to achieve the peaceful unification of the Freljord, she needs this respected status.She needed to pretend to believe in fate so that even her own blood, Tryndamere, felt that she was really a divine incarnation of Avarosa himself.

Tiredness is inevitable, maybe she didn't realize it herself, but under the arrangement of fate she pretended to believe, she embarked on a great road.

"Do you come here alone when you encounter troubles?" Kaisha asked.

"more or less."

"This time because of the war?"

Ashe put the ice bow back behind her back, and couldn't help sighing: "The addition of the bear man has made Winter's Claw unstoppable, even the giant bear who has suffered thousands of swords and guns has appeared on the battlefield, and the mammoth colossus has not We can shake him. How can we be the opponents of those monsters, the defense line was broken one after another, Avarosa lost many soldiers, and retreated steadily..."

This time Ai Xi failed to appear on the front line, but listening to the battle report from the front line, Ai Xi felt the miserable death of those soldiers.The bears don't just dismember corpses, they use them in some kind of sinister ritual, sacrificing battles and their dead to make Volibear stronger.

As the battlemother of these warriors, Ashe was extremely sad and angry, but this did not allow her to defeat the Winter's Claw.

"Have you thought about peace talks?" Kai'Sa asked.

In her opinion, Avarosa has grown through continuous alliances. Isn't peace talks just a kind of alliance?As long as you can offer conditions that make the opponent's heart beat, it's not impossible to make the enemy put down their arms.

"Peace talks are absolutely impossible. Winter's Claw regards us as moths and weaklings. Peace talks are nothing but humiliation. Only by fighting can we live with dignity."

Ashe knew in her heart that the hope of peace talks was extremely slim, so she never considered it. There were also some unknown factors, her own reasons.

She and Winter's Claw's war mother Sejuani were originally sisters in robes, but she did not hesitate to turn against Sejuani in order to save a group of furnace households, so Sejuani swore that she would kill her next time they met.Later, they led their own tribes, and this personal grievance gradually escalated into a confrontation between two large tribes, and reconciliation was almost impossible.

"The question is why Winter's Claw will fight with the bears. Are they not afraid of being backlashed?"

"This is not the worst, because the bears joined the war and made Avarosa panic. Some people heard that Ornn appeared in the Wyvernback Mountains, and fled there as deserters in order to avoid the bears. The war was originally It's tight, there are so many deserters..." Ashe's eyes are haggard, many people believe that she can lead them to prosperity and power, but they are unwilling to follow her to take risks.

People are greedy for life and afraid of death, the identity of the reincarnated goddess is nothing in front of overwhelming power, nothing is more important than one's own life.

"I see that there are a lot fewer people in the city than before. Is it because of this incident?"

Ashe replied: "There are many furnace households who believe in Ornn. They spontaneously went to the Feilongbei Mountains to pay homage to the miracles and help Ornn dig mines. In order to protect them, I had to allocate some troops to protect them. You see It is also because of this reason that there are fewer people.”

"When the front line is tight, we need to draw troops." Kai'Sa frowned: "Your real intention is to ask Aoun to help you win this war, right?"

"I was really lucky. Now I have no choice but to watch the Winter's Claw invade our home." Ash forced a smile.The alliance she has carefully maintained is no longer sustainable, and when the hearts of the people are gone, maybe this alliance will disintegrate.

"It's useless. He will no longer intervene in wars between mortals. What he is doing now is far more important than war." Kahn said.Ashe didn't know why Ornn appeared on the back of the flying dragon, but Kaisha and the others knew it very well, because they were the initiators of all this.

"I have to try it anyway."

At this moment, the battle mother of Avarosa seemed so helpless.

"Don't bother Ornn, he doesn't like to be disturbed. As for Volibear, maybe we can help you out."

Hearing Kahn's words, Ashe frowned suspiciously: "You really...can you...?"

"It's okay, we have no choice." Kaisha said, seeing Ashe's eyes staring at the sky suddenly, it seemed that there was something ominous.

She followed Ashe's gaze and found an ice eagle hovering over the woods above them, and it wasn't the one Ashe had raised.The latter frowned deeper and deeper, as if confirming something, then drew his bow and arrow, and aimed at the ice eagle.

If it's just an ice eagle, does it need to be so vigilant?

"Is there anything unusual?" Kai'Sa asked.

Ashe didn't answer Kai'Sa, her attention was always on the ice eagle, and her arrow tip kept aiming at the ice eagle, but she didn't shoot out.

And the eagle didn't leave either, it fell to the ground, lying on the ground in a strange posture, only then did Kai'Sa see a string of rosary beads hanging around the ice eagle's neck.

With a strange hiss, under the gaze of the three, the body of the ice eagle began to stretch.

Its legs began to elongate and thicken, the hooks at the tips of its claws retracted into its flesh, and its feathers began to retract into its body.Its head was also getting bigger and flatter, its sharp beak retracted, and a thick beard grew.

They watched as the ice eagle continued to grow in size, first becoming half-human, half-eagle, and finally fully transformed into a strong man.

Ashe revealed the shapeshifter's identity and questioned his origins.

"Beast Spirit Walker, who are you? Why are you here?"

Chapter 724 Beast Spirit Walker

"Warmother Ashe, allow me to introduce myself."

The burly man transformed from an ice eagle knelt down on one knee in front of Ashe. He had a beard all over his face, and his upper body was naked, with only a string of rosary beads straddling his shoulders diagonally.

"I am Udyr, Spirit Walker, Great Shaman of Winter's Claw, Sworn Father of Sejuani."

Ashe was very surprised by the identity of the visitor, Sejuani is now her number one mortal enemy, and her father dared to appear in front of her!

"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you? Or arrest you and threaten Sejuani." After being surprised, she became vigilant. Ashe kept her face cold, and her bow hand never let go. the chill.

Udyr shook his head: "Warmother Ashe, I came here to ask for your help. Winter's Claw has encountered an unprecedented disaster."

"Are you kidding, the current Winter's Claw can be said to be invincible." Ashe laughed angrily, and Winter's Claw is now advancing triumphantly, and it might not take long to kill her. This person is To show off and mock?

"That's where the problem lies. It's not an easy matter. Warmother Ashe, please allow me to tell you before you decide whether to help. For Avarosa, and for Winter's Claw .”

"Did Sejuani send you here?" Listening to Udyr's request, Ashe confirmed again for the last time.

"No, I wanted to come by myself, and Sejuani didn't know about it."

……

Ashe put away the ice bow, and the tense atmosphere eased.

She lit the bonfire, and the four of them sat down around the bonfire in the forest, and then she spoke first, with the emotion of recalling her childhood.

Once upon a time, the relationship between her and Sejuani was so good that I could give you half of the food I had. They gossiped and hunted together, and they were always full of happiness together.

"I've never heard Sejuani talk about her sworn father," Ashe said.

As a matriarchal society in the Freljord, women's social status has always been superior to that of men.

Warmothers talk about their mothers or grandmothers to others, but rarely about their fathers.If he's an Iceborn, it's a bit of a talking point, but in most cases a warmother has multiple bloodlines, and her daughter has multiple sworn fathers.

And the only thing is the best to remember, so the war mothers only talk about their mothers to others, and generally ignore their fathers.But if the oath father is a beast spirit walker, then it can still be put on the table more or less.

"This is my problem. I left her early to pursue the road of noise. I didn't fulfill my duties as a father. She didn't even know I existed until I heard the call of the beast spirit and returned to this land again. The land, returned to her again."

Udyr replied guiltily that he had a relationship with Sejuani's mother, Kokiya, but he only found out later that he gave birth to a daughter for himself, otherwise he would never have abandoned their mother and child easily, Obsessed with the pursuit of the beast spirit walker.

Strictly speaking, he is not considered Sejuani's sworn father, because he did not form a blood alliance with Kokiya.Even though he is Sejuani's biological father in blood, he is just a wild man in identity.He remains with Sejuani now as a shaman, not as a father.

"Have you ever left the Freljord before?" Ashe asked.

Before Udyr could answer, Kahn pointed to the rosary on his body and said, "This rosary comes from Ionia, obviously he went to the east."

"I have a good eye. This rosary was given to me by a friend of a holy monk in Ionia. It can soothe the restless beast spirit in my body. I always carry it." Udyr replied holding the rosary.

He practiced in the Freljord, met Li Qing, a blind monk, followed him to Ionia for further training, and participated in the war to protect Ionia. recognize each other.
