Chapter 142 The Silent Soul of Thousand Years

[You have killed Cassiopeia (hero), Embrace of the Demon Snake, the level has been increased by 1, and you have obtained 200 blue essence, 20 orange essence, and 2 skill points. 】

【Congratulations!Your level has been raised to level 19, gaining 1 skill point. 】

[Remaining skill points: 18]

[Fortune: 1400 Blue Essence, 170 Orange Essence]

【…】

Huh?This time I killed Cassiopeia and why did I get so few rewards?
Noticing the prompt from the system in his mind, Li Lin was stunned.

The last time I killed Tucci, I was able to upgrade by 4 levels. I got 1000 blue essences and 100 orange essences, and I also gave 5 skill points.

Is it because Cassiopeia has not broken away from the mortal level now, and has not reached the strength of the future, so this situation occurs?
Or, the rewards given by the system are based on the strength of the "heroes" at their peak, regardless of their current strength?

Probably.

But this has to be verified later to be sure...

Just as Li Lin was meditating, Kassadin's soft call brought him back to reality: "Li Lin..."

There was a hint of hesitation in his voice, as if he was hesitating whether to speak or not.

"If you have any questions, just ask directly. I don't think there is anything to hide between us." Li Lin switched to the storm mode and said at the same time.

Kassadin thought for a while, but couldn't help asking: "Just now, you said that this Noxian woman was cursed by a god warrior..."

"Oh, what are you talking about? According to Shurima's records, during the Darkin War, wasn't there a snake-headed Darkin who harmed all directions?"

"Well... there is such a person, a dark descendant from Zureta, Naganika who ascended to the form of a snake head, who is good at using secret techniques and poison."

"That's it." Li Lin pointed to where Cassiopeia was just now, "You should be able to see that she was poisoned, and her legs are twisting into a long tail shape..."

Kassadin froze for a moment. He had just been fully alert to the five Noxus soldiers, and he didn't even notice what Cassiopeia had become.

However, Li Lin had no reason to lie to himself in this regard, so he still believed what he said.

Afterwards, he raised a new question: "But what does astral magic... refer to?"

"There are actually many types of magic. For example, the power of the 'sun' injected into the Ascended Warriors by the sun disk refers to astral magic..."

Li Lin briefly introduced Kassadin to the types of Runeterra magic he knew.

Of course, he learned part of this through his background, and more from the descriptions of the books collected by Gilaman's house.

While talking, they continued to walk towards the depths of the mausoleum, and deliberately slowed down their pace.

With Cassiopeia in this state, she definitely backstabbed Sivir.

And her royal blood will awaken Azir's 3000-year-old soul.

Li Lin will not help rescue Sivir, which needs to be done by Azir, putting him in the fountain of life, which can only revive one person.

This selfless act will allow Azir to reactivate the Ascension Ritual, reshaping his husk into what an Ascended being should be.

But the premise of all this is the opening of the last huge tomb door leading to the ancient tomb...

Just as Li Lin and Kassadin continued to sneak in the gradually narrowing passage, the entire ancient tomb gradually trembled.

The yellow sand leaked down, and the broken gravel hit the storm and their power armor, making a crisp sound.

"Damn! What did these Noxians do?!" Kassadin's heart sank, and he grabbed Li Lin who was still about to move forward and shouted: "This tomb is about to collapse, let's run away quickly!" Come on, before it's too late!"

"Don't worry..." Li Lin tried his best to keep calm and was not affected by the eager Kassadin.

At this stage, the gate of the tomb should be opening...

This idea just flashed in his mind, only to hear an extremely angry roar from the far depths of the tomb, obviously a roar that can only be made by non-human beings.

Immediately afterwards, there was a series of excited wild laughter, "Hahahaha... 3000 years, 3000 years! Renekton, Nasus, you can't hold me!"

Li Lin and Kassadin felt a sour taste in their mouths at the same time, which was a normal physiological reaction when someone was casting magic.

Accompanied by the last violent tremor and loud noise of the ancient tomb, it seemed as if a huge boulder had fallen to the ground ahead.

The deep and wild laughter gradually faded away, as did the inhuman roars and growls.

The sourness in Kassadin's mouth that Monk Li Lin was in shock faded away, indicating that the two terrifying guys who escaped from the ancient tomb had already left.

Relieved, Kassadin guessed the owner of the two voices, "It was just now... the god warrior Renekton and the traitor Xerath?! What you said turned out to be true..."

"Since they have escaped and the mausoleum is no longer trembling, the last gate should be completely opened."

Li Lin glanced sideways at Kassadin beside him, "There is a high probability that there will be no more danger ahead, let's hurry up."

……

……

Endless flames and huge celestial magic instantly incinerated the body.

Pain, and then complete silence.

Can't feel space, even the meaning of time no longer exists.

But an inexplicable throbbing that was connected by blood, awakened a man's soul that had been silent for thousands of years from the depths of the ancient tomb.

"What the hell happened?" His weak voice sounded in the endless darkness, "Am I... dead?"

He seemed at a loss for his current situation.

pain……

As soon as he tried to recall what happened in the ascension ceremony that day, the man would feel the pain of being torn apart in his soul.

"I am...Azir...why...the ascension ceremony failed...it's impossible..."

As a translucent figure gradually condensed, Azir gradually recovered his rudimentary form before death.

Now, however, he is not whole, just a visible soul held together by a cloud of tangible dust, held together by what little remains of his unyielding will.

Azir staggered, wandering aimlessly among the ruins of the ancient tomb.

"My empire... Shurima... has collapsed..."

He could feel the grief deep in his soul, but no tears could be squeezed from the corners of his eyes.

"No... there is still a chance..."

Suddenly, Azir's eyes turned to a direction, which was where the Dawn Oasis used to be.

He could feel that after he recovered, the collapsed sun disc responded to his will, and the last trace of water of life flowed out again.

Although it was pitifully small, it was enough for him to reshape his physical body and return to the human world.

As long as it can be completely revived, rebuilding the Shurima Empire is not a difficult task!
A gleam of hope flashed in Azir's eyes, and he couldn't help speeding up his pace to the Dawn Oasis.

Under the flow of the magic power of the ancient tomb, the yellow sand on the ground gathered, as if to crown the long-fallen emperor again, and gradually condensed into the original shape of his physical body to form his temporary body.

However, when Azir just walked out of the gate of the ancient tomb, a girl lying in a pool of blood not far away immediately attracted his attention.

A feeling of blood connection...

But soon, his eyes turned to the distance, the narrow passage leading to this hall.

Two people in strange precision metal armor ran out, followed by two strange objects floating in the air.

Azir's brows made of quicksand frowned slightly, and asked in a hoarse voice, "... who are you?"
