The Glory of Noxus

The vast desert.

Two severely desertified mountains stand alone between the sand sea, silently enduring the ruthless baking of the scorching sun.

Shortly after Huo Jixing and others entered the Emperor's Tomb, the two mountains suddenly welcomed two uninvited guests.

The leader was a blood-haired noble youth in a red robe.

The falling blood-red hair wrapped in the robe fluttered in the strong wind, like flowing blood.

There was a sharp and crazy touch in the deep blood-red eyes, giving people an unruly feeling.

The other was a seductive woman in a black tights.

The black tights outlined a graceful figure, like a queen in the night, bringing a cold color.

The appearance of these two uninvited guests injected a hint of unusual breath into this lonely sand dune.

They were suspended in the air, looking at the two mountains in front of them, as if looking for something.

"Vladimir, are you sure the lost tomb is here?"

Iris narrowed her eyes and looked at the scorching sun in the sky. She was not used to being active in the sun.

She was used to waiting for her prey to fall into the trap in the darkness of the castle.

"It's here, that's right, the location provided by Cassiopeia." Vladimir nodded gently, looking straight at the mountain in front of him.

Earlier, Cassiopeia recorded the specific location of the lost tomb in the mission information of the Black Rose.

"Then what are we waiting for? Go find the trace of that guy and dig out some treasures and secrets of the Shurima Empire." Iris covered her mouth and chuckled, with excitement in her eyes.

Before becoming a believer of the Spider God, Despicable Throat, she found a captain who was heavily in debt and desperate. He took risks for money and took her and a group of devout followers to the cursed city of Helia.

They landed on a gray-white death beach, searching for the lost treasure, just to wait for the favor of the pale lady.

The search for the lake in front of them was somewhat similar to the adventure in memory.

After saying that, Iris couldn't wait to go to the desertified mountain, and Vladimir followed closely behind.

From time to time, they would stop at the foot of the mountain to observe the surrounding traces and look for traces of people who had been here.

But the wind and sand were too severe, covering up the traces of the past.

As Vladimir and Iris went deeper, they soon found a hidden mountain road.

In the dark environment, they could only vaguely see the twists and turns of the mountain road, but could not know more clues.

The two did not hesitate at all, and were very confident in their own strength, and stepped straight onto the mountain road.

It only took a moment.

They came to the bottom of the mountain road and saw the bright yellow flames burning on the walls on both sides, and the tightly closed stone door.

"Things are interesting. Someone came here earlier than us." Iris stretched out her hand and brushed the stone door, frowning.

"Could it be that guy?"

"It can only be him." Vladimir looked around and said with a determined look.

"Get ready to open the tomb door."

"No." Iris shook her head slowly.

She retracted her palm, leaving a dark spider mark on the solid yellow sand stone door.

"Something is wrong with this ancient tomb."

Vladimir looked at the dark mark on the stone door and paused.

"Let me try."

He walked slowly to the yellow sand stone door, stretched out his white palm, covered with a rich blood-red light, and slowly pressed against the stone door.

Bang!

The blood-red light shattered, and a dull thunder-like sound echoed in the mountain road.

However, the yellow sand stone door did not move at all, but there was a light layer of blood-red marks on it.

A trace of doubt flashed in Vladimir's blood-red eyes, as if he didn't believe in evil, and was ready to make another move.

He took a deep breath, and the blood-red robe he was wearing fluttered. In the distance, a long river of blood appeared on the mountain road, surging against the stone gate.

The winding mountain road was gradually flattened under the scouring of the long river of blood, but the stone gate still stood firm.

Boom! Boom!

The long river of blood became more and more violent, causing the mountain to shake, and rolling sand and rocks fell and hit the mountain road.

Seeing this, Iris looked at Vladimir in front of her, frowning slightly.

"Enough, if you continue, this place will be submerged by rocks."

Vladimir seemed not to have heard it, the blood waves became more and more agitated, and the sound of rocks became more and more dense.

Just when Iris was angry.

Vladimir stopped his hand, and the surrounding long river of blood dimmed and finally dissipated in the air.

He focused on the stone door of the ancient tomb in front of him, and a feeling of unwillingness surged in his heart.

He knew that the target was in the ancient tomb, but he couldn't get in.

"Cassiopeia's information may be correct. This lost ancient tomb should be a mysterious ascender."

Vladimir suppressed his irritability and unwillingness, and his face looked a little ugly.

As the most loyal subordinate of the Darkin, he had heard a lot of secret rumors about the Shurima Empire in the conversations between the Darkin.

For example, some ancient tombs in the Shurima Empire were affected by the blood of the owner of the tomb, and only direct bloodlines could enter.

The lost ancient tomb in front of him may require blood power to open it as rumored.

After listening to Vladimir's analysis, Iris glanced at the yellow sand stone door and spoke faintly.

"Then what should we do now? Return to the capital without success?"

"No, we can wait." Vladimir said in a serious voice.

He didn't want to miss the opportunity in front of him. Huo Jixing's growth rate was too fast, beyond imagination.

He was afraid that next time, he would not have such a golden opportunity.

Or even lose the opportunity completely.

"The entrance to the ancient tomb is here. If they find Katarina, they will return from here."

"Okay, then I will wait with you." Iris said helplessly.

"But the sacrifice agreed upon must be increased by 30%."

"Okay." Vladimir replied.

The atmosphere of silence was pervasive, and the figures of the two people were reflected by the fire, stretching straight and falling on the surface of the yellow sand stone door.

Tick!

In the silence, the golden red blood bloomed quietly on the ancient stone surface of the palace's giant gate like a solidified flame.

Then it meandered down along the complex and mysterious patterns of the giant gate.

Instantly!

The light golden glow lit up, like a rising sun, causing the palace's giant gate to tremble,

The invisible wave swept over everyone, as if to cover this emperor's tomb.

In a trance, a magnificent scene appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

The desert split open, the wind and sand poured, the ancient city of Shurima rose from the grave, and the huge golden disc shone with the sacred sunlight, crowning the capital.

"Azir?"

Huo Jixing noticed the coronation scene and spoke in surprise.

According to historical records, Desert Emperor Azir was the last crowned emperor of the Shurima Empire.

Nasus narrowed his eyes, staring at the rising golden disc, and noticed the star tracks depicted on it.

"The prophecy of Azir's rebirth is not false, it is happening!"
