Lux's Farewell

The long-range shooting dealt a heavy blow to the first wave of void worms that flew out of the Howling Abyss.

However, the coalition archers did not feel the slightest excitement.

Because just as these void bugs fell into the abyss and were shattered to pieces, more bugs flew out. They formed a tight formation, and the sound of their wings vibrating together made people feel dizzy and sick.

Although such a tight front line can increase the lethality of arrows, it also increases the pressure on the coalition forces by more than a little.

Even veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles often lose their sense of proportion and lose concentration when facing these enemies they have never seen before.

Moreover, the spreading void energy is also eroding the battlefield environment. Although the ice and snow will not melt easily, and there is no need to worry about the erosion of void energy in the Malphite combat unit, the surrounding world seems to be melting. In a deep purple, this is still enough to make people feel scared.

What is even more frightening is that even if the void worms that took off fell like raindrops, the number of void worms that flew out afterwards did not decrease but increased. They did not attack immediately, but on the Howling Abyss, against the Astonishing casualties continued to accumulate, and it seemed that they were determined to accumulate enough numbers before clearing the area in one wave.

This gesture will undoubtedly put tremendous pressure on the coalition forces. Under the gaze of so many flying void insects, even the bravest warriors can't help but feel their hearts beat at this time.

Many Avarosan warriors couldn't help but roar in low voices to cheer themselves up. They were looking forward to the void worms starting to swoop, and then the sharp blades in their hands would kill them. Unfortunately, the void worms just kept holding on. In a gathering posture, they had no intention of starting a dive battle.

The coalition forces are suppressed by long-range firepower, and the number of void worms is always limited. However, around Ornn, Volibear, and Anivia, the number of void worms continues to increase visibly to the naked eye.

Although for ordinary people, these void bugs are already very large and are very easy to target, to these three people, the void bugs are indeed no different from mosquitoes.

In this case, although it is obviously impossible for the void bugs to cause any harm to them, they often have trouble dealing with these nasty void bugs.

Although they were still gathering, they looked like they were dying when faced with the arrows, but if Volibear stretched out his claws to grab them, it wouldn't be too difficult for them to dodge.

It wasn't until Volibear roared in dissatisfaction, activating the power of thunder, and saw the densely arranged void bugs electrifying into a string in mid-air, that his efficiency in cleaning up the void bugs increased.

This state of silence lasted for nearly an hour.

........................

An hour later, when the assembled void bugs had completely covered the sky, they finally launched their first active attack.

The void insects arranged in a tight formation gathered into a huge wave. After slightly raising the height, they suddenly started to dive downwards.

In the Malphite combat unit, the first row of heavily armored warriors immediately activated their weapons and raised their shields.

The next moment, there was a dull crashing sound, and countless void bugs showed the thorns under their carapace and rushed towards the first warriors, as if they wanted to completely submerge them - and then they hit the kite shield head-on. After knocking himself into a pile, he got stuck on the shield.

After a void insect knocked him to death, the second and third ones followed...

Although the first warriors were heavy enough, in the face of continuous collisions, their bodies were inevitably pushed back - as if they were pushed hard by a huge wave, and their feet often Leaves two deep marks.

Even with the protection of heavy armor, as the void worms dived and exploded desperately, the warriors who arrived first were covered in purple mucus from the explosion. They didn't feel anything when the mucus first adhered to their bodies, but as the It gradually penetrated into the armor, and the soldiers in the Xianden camp who came into direct contact with it soon developed various symptoms of discomfort.

At the same time, Kalya's rotation order also arrived at the front line - under the cover of the wall of fire raised by the law-enforcers, the first three rows of warriors who entered the camp quickly retreated, and rotated with the ones behind, while he went to the back to be relatively safe. area receives a simple cleansing treatment.

The wall of fire was quickly extinguished by the sacrifice of the void worms. After a brief gathering, the wave-like dive officially began again, and under the attack of this wave, the coalition's formation was once again moved back a few feet.

Then change shifts and defend again...

When the coalition's formation was finally some distance away from the Howling Abyss, the reptiles under the abyss finally came to the ground for the first time.

Compared with the slender flying void bugs, these void bugs climbing up along the plank roads and partition walls undoubtedly look much stronger. Their bodies are also covered with chitin armor, but no matter the thickness, Its solidity is far superior to that of void insects flying in the sky.

After having a little positional space, they began to rush out of the Howling Abyss and rushed towards the coalition's line.

Behind them, there are many one-eyed ones floating in the air. Their eyes are full of undisguised curiosity and doubt, and they seem to be full of condescending contempt. And behind these one-eyed ones, their tentacles are He was waving around excitedly, as if he had found something he was very interested in, and he looked full of anticipation.

Anyone who is stared at by them and chooses to look at them will have all the past events flash through their minds like a revolving lantern.

"Don't look at those one-eyes, attack directly!" Almost at the same time as these one-eyes appeared, Kalya's order also spread to the coalition forces, "All archers and spear throwers, regard those one-eyes as the first target!"

With Kalya's order, except for a few unlucky ones whose minds were read the first time they met, most people avoided this fatal gaze in time, and the archers and spear throwers also quickly focused their fire. , and the sound of popping eyeballs being popped popped up one after another.

Such a direct attack seemed to offend these large floating eyes. They quickly locked onto the archers with their bows and arrows ready, and their single eyes lit up with dangerous disintegration rays.

Anyone who is exposed to this kind of ray for a long time will be completely transformed into a pile of pure organic matter. In the end, both the body and the memory will become the nourishment of the void.

However, before they started to take action, Kalya's order once again arrived at the forefront.

So, when the disintegration ray lit up, the Archon quickly propped up the special energy shield specially prepared by Kalya.

Although these energy shields were quickly disintegrated, a confused look soon appeared in the one-eye that had broken down the shield, and then they began to self-destruct one after another, exploding into a series of inhumane objects in mid-air. Heart palpitating fireworks.

For these void one-eyed people who like to analyze Runeterra through disintegration rays, the special energy shield carefully prepared by Kalya is absolutely redundant information and a fatal spam attack. Anyone who tries to analyze this spell The one-eyed Void will analyze itself to the point of collapse.

It is precisely for this reason that those unlucky ones who have broken down the special energy shield will self-destruct in mid-air.

Two consecutive successful responses finally stabilized the coalition forces that were still somewhat panicked.

Judging from the current situation, Kalya does have a good understanding of void creatures, and he is quite familiar with the opponent's attack methods. As soon as the void insects made some moves, Kalya arranged countermeasures in advance. , which made most of the soldiers of the coalition gradually feel confident when facing unknown enemies.

As long as the battle continues like this, even if the number of enemies is too many, victory will only belong to the coalition forces!

Then, before they could take a breath, after One-Eye, more void insects began to rush out of the Howling Abyss and attacked the coalition position. Before the joy of dealing with it could well up in their hearts, the coalition forces The soldiers fell into a bitter battle. ……………………

Void worms, endless void worms.

Several hours have passed since Lissandra sealed herself, but the rate of void worms pouring out of the Howling Abyss has never slowed down. Instead, it has increased in number.

It's as if the number of void insects below is truly endless.

No one knows whether the number of void worms is infinite.

But one thing that everyone knows is that the coalition's physical strength is not infinite.

Even though the coalition commanders have been working hard to maintain scheduling so that the coalition soldiers can take turns as much as possible, as it gets darker, the coalition soldiers participating in the battle inevitably fall into fatigue.

It's inevitable that people will get tired.

But the void worms will not get tired. They are not afraid of exhaustion or death, and it seems that they will continue to struggle with the coalition forces like this.

If this continues, the coalition's front will collapse sooner or later.

They need a break!

However, in this situation, where can they rest?

The coalition's original camp was on the other side of the Howling Abyss. Since it was not the focus of the void worm's attack and there were a sufficient number of defenders, it was considered a safe place now.

But the problem is that if the main force of the coalition forces wants to withdraw now, they have to pass through the Frost Bridge on the Howling Abyss - now the bridge is almost completely occupied by void bugs. Besides bugs, there are still bugs on the bridge. There are even bugs that have begun to prepare to build nests. It is not easy at all to cross the bridge!

Fortunately, Kalya had already anticipated the current situation. When they occupied the Frost Bridge, the coalition forces had already left almost all the ignition fuel and unused combustibles on the bridge. Now is the time to use it!

With Kalya doing it himself, it didn't take much effort, and the entire Frost Bridge was already ablaze.

These void worms in Freljord have obviously not seen the power of fire attacks in the past. Although they are very resistant to frost magic, they are quite fragile when faced with fire.

As the flames opened the way, under the cover of the Malphite combat unit, the coalition forces passed the Frost Bridge quite smoothly, returned to their camp, and began to rest in batches.

But the three Freljord demigods on the other side were not so lucky.

They don't have a camp.

Although night is gradually spreading, Anivia, Volibear, and Ornn are still fighting hard to eliminate the insects.

The void worms have little impact on them, and they do not have the physical limitations of mortals. Even if they fight like this for ten days and a half, there is no pressure, but this kind of fighting posture in the dark night seems like It's really a bit embarrassing.

Even many soldiers of the coalition have doubts about whether these three people can survive - if they are swallowed up by the swarm, it will cause a heavy blow to both the battle situation and morale.

To this end, Kalya gave assurance.

"They won't have any problem. Even though there are a lot of these void worms, in the final analysis they are just an appetizer. Before the earth cracks and the monitor doesn't show up, no matter how many void worms there are, it's just foreplay. "

Hearing what Kalya said, the expressions of the coalition commanders were a little complicated.

The good news is that the three Freljord demigods are not in danger, and these void worms are not a big problem.

Bad news, this level of insect swarm is just foreplay, there are even more terrifying existences under the abyss.

........................

The insect attack lasted for nearly three days.

In the past three days, first flying insects, then reptiles, the number of void insects that emerged from the Howling Abyss was staggering, but their combat effectiveness was very limited.

Except for those special one-eyed monsters, most void worms are at most as dangerous as hungry direwolves - very dangerous, but not dangerous enough for the coalition forces.

Even as the soldiers of the coalition forces gradually became familiar with the battle rhythm of the Void Insects under the command of Kalya, many people even had a vague idea of ​​"nothing more than that".

It’s not that the coalition is proud, it’s that their commander seems to know the Void Worms too well. All the Void Worms’ actions are within Kalya’s expectations. Although there are certain casualties in this kind of battle where you know yourself and the enemy, overall, Morale is gradually improving.

The state of the three Freljord demigods is somewhat similar to that of the coalition forces. Although they are extremely impatient with the void bugs, these bugs cannot cause any harm to them. Even if Kalya hadn't communicated repeatedly, they would have been killed. I'm afraid we can't help but jump into the abyss.

Amid this swarm of insects, the only one that suffered was the Frostguard Fortress.

Although the Frost Guard Fortress is majestic and dangerous, after their witches sealed themselves in the Ice Tomb, they still performed in a rather awkward manner when faced with a swarm of mainly flying insects.

In the absence of long-range firepower and the spellcasters all using ice magic, their ability to limit the insect tide was very insufficient. For three days, they could only rely on the city wall to barely support them.

Then, just when most people thought that the battle would become protracted, in the early morning of the fourth day, a heart-stopping tremor came from the earth beneath the Howling Abyss.

Kalya, who has been paying close attention to this, immediately issued an emergency gathering order.

"Everyone get up!"

"Ready to fight!"

"Follow the previous rhythm, we must guard the camp and leave the monitor to us!"

The Void Watcher makes his grand appearance!
