LOL: I'm a bad prince in Demacia

Chapter 489 Nayafili
A rocky crypt located in the desert.

Due to people's long-term mining, the space in the cave is very large, but there are not many useful resources left.

And deep in the cave, rapid breathing sounded, and a figure took anxious steps, as if avoiding some terrifying existence.

He looked back from time to time with fear in his eyes. Even though his body was scarred, he did not dare to stop even one step.

The only thing he regrets now is that he shouldn't have been greedy and accepted an escort order, but was caught by that monster.

That monster is completely unstoppable to humans.

He escaped by pretending to be faint, and now he just wants to escape from here.

With a "click" sound, the man who was running for his life in terror suddenly slipped and fell heavily to the ground. The torch used for lighting also fell to the ground. He ignored the pain in his body and quickly got up. However, the next second, his body froze and his eyes became extremely frightened.

In the darkness ahead, a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly lit up, followed by a second pair and a third pair.
The dense eyes stared at him with a human light.

At this moment, deep despair arose in the man's heart.

From the darkness, I saw a desert hill dog on all fours, with a slender body and sharp blades on its shoulders, slowly walked into the visible light of the torch.

It was at least one meter tall, with brighter hair, like a fox, and a pair of eyes that revealed some intelligence.

On its left and right sides, smaller Desert Hill Dogs with sharp blades on their heads followed closely behind.

They were completely different from the desert hill dogs in the man's impression. It was more like they had experienced some kind of terrible mutation.

He crawled back with a look of horror on his face, but his trembling legs were already unable to get up.

"Have you ever seen a creature that uses this kind of magic like me?"

What frightened him even more was that the leading Qiu Dog actually opened his mouth and spat out human language, low and hoarse, like a woman.

As he spoke, Qiu Quan's eyes became as red as blood, and blood magic was cast, and scarlet blood flowed towards the human.

The man's eyes had given him away. He had never seen such forbidden magic.

That means he has never seen anyone using this kind of magic.

"Wait a minute. I've seen it, I really have."

Seeing the murderous intent in Qiu Quan's eyes, the man knelt on the ground in horror, trying to find a chance to survive.

"The smell of lies."

Qiu Quan didn't give him a chance, he just pounced forward and bit his neck, causing blood to splash everywhere.

The next moment, the dogs behind him also pounced on him, and in less than a minute, they devoured the man without leaving a single bone.

Qiu Quan looked outside the burrow, knowing that he had to start a new hunt, otherwise he would not be able to satisfy the hunger of the expanded tribe.

It's a pity that in recent times, it has captured so many humans, but it has not found out the whereabouts of beings like it.

"Is there anything else you need to prepare before departure?"

Taliyah looked at Lu Qi and asked.

"No need, we are fully prepared." Lu Qi shook his head slightly and said, "What about you?"

"Me too, I have all my luggage with me." Taliyah replied immediately.

Lu Qi nodded and said: "Then let's go."

The three of them were not familiar, but the atmosphere was not so silent.

Taliyah was more cheerful and enthusiastic, so she said, "My name is Taliyah, what do you call me?"

Lu Qi replied: "Lucci, this is Morgana."

Taliyah continued: "According to my observation, you are not locals, right?"

Lu Qi couldn't help but ask: "Why do you say that?"

Taliyah looked at the two of them, sizing them up and said, "Most people who often stay in the desert have rough skin like mine. But you two have white and rosy skin, and you rarely blow sand."

"That's true." Lu Qi nodded and said with a smile, "We are from Demacia."

"Demacia?" Taliyah couldn't help but take another look at the two of them and said, "That place has been very lively recently. I can hear things about Demacia everywhere. Are you short of money? Did you just I’ve also seen that this bounty is recognized as dangerous.”

"We were just interested in that particular group of desert hill dogs."

Lu Qi replied casually.

The main reason why he wanted to get involved was because of Taliyah.

Although Taliyah did not know him, he knew her well.

Taliyah has a master, the swordsman Yasuo of Ionia.

Luqi and Yasuo had only met once, but they had fought side by side, and in a sense, they were from the same sect.

Now that I know that Taliyah is likely to be in a lot of trouble next, I naturally want to help.

With his current strength, he wouldn't have to go around the corner when he sees trouble.

"That's it." Taliyah nodded. From the chat, she could feel that Lu Qi was definitely not simple.

At this time, Lu Qi also asked: "What about you? Is it because you are short of money?"

"Yes." Taliyah answered readily. She sighed and said, "I have spent all my money along the way. If I don't make some money, I will starve to death."

Speaking of being hungry, she then remembered that she hadn't even eaten, so she opened the package she had brought with her and took out three pieces of black bread.

These brown breads are air-dried food and can be stored for a long time, but they are very hard and taste average, but they are filling.

There were not many things in her package, which was enough to show her financial difficulties. Even so, she still shared two of them.

"Do you want to eat? You will have strength only if you fill your stomach, right?"

She smiled very innocently.

"No need, but I think it's better to eat some food that can replenish your strength before dealing with those desert hill dogs."

Luqi admired Taliyah's enthusiasm and generosity, and he took out the food he brought.

On this trip, if there is one thing that I need to take with me, it is water and food.

Enough to feed him for half a year.

The storage space that comes with the Devil's Power has different time flow rates, making it extremely convenient to store food.

Lu Qi responded generously and took out two pieces of yellow and white bread with dried beef in them and handed them to Taliyah.

"How embarrassing." Taliya was a little flattered. She looked at the food that was obviously several grades higher than the black stone in her hand, and she also saw that Lu Qi and the two were indeed not short of money.

She had never seen anyone eating such good-looking food in Shurima.

"You're welcome, we still have plenty of food."

Lu Qi forced it on her.

"Thank you very much." Taliyah couldn't refuse anymore and didn't guard against the two of them. She took the bread and took a bite of the bread.

There was a smell of malt mixed with milk. She had never tasted such delicious bread, and beef jerky was also rich in fragrance. After just a few mouthfuls, her body was filled with strength.

In this way, while walking, eating, and occasionally chatting, the three of them had left the city and set foot on the road often used by caravans.

According to the information given by the reward, the group of desert hill dogs will often ambush in places where humans often pass. If this is the case, then follow their wishes and actively lure them out.

Not long after, the three of them walked along the road for a while.

Taliyah, who had eaten and drank enough, felt that she had to protect Lu Qi and the two no matter what. She activated the magic power in her body and felt the connection with the land beneath her feet.

At this time, no one could be seen on the road. It was surrounded by rock formations and not a single green plant. From time to time, the wind carried sand and soil, making it look very desolate.

There is also an eerie quietness that makes people feel particularly flustered.

"Do you think the group of Qiu dogs will be ambushing here?"

Taliyah looked around and couldn't find any trace of Qiu Hun activity.

She thought, maybe they were ambushed elsewhere?

"No, it's almost here."

Lu Qi had already sensed it at this time, and he noticed an unusual aura approaching.

"where is it?"

Taliyah immediately became alert, but did not hear any movement. Just when she was about to speak again, she finally heard the sound of footsteps, which were obviously trampled by animals on all fours.

Immediately afterwards, silhouettes of desert hill dogs appeared on nearby rocks.

They were different from the Qiu dogs in Taliyah's impression. The sharp blades on their foreheads were obviously extremely abnormal, and the weird atmosphere was also very wrong.

Ordinary Qiu dogs also move in groups, but when they see people, they will grin and bark to frighten the enemy.

But the group of mound dogs did not do this, but stared at them with a frightening look.

When Lu Qi saw the appearance of this group of Qiu dogs, he had already confirmed his suspicion.

Indeed it is.

Naya Feli, the hundred-cracked hell dog, is also a dark descendant.

Darkin have always been extremely dangerous in the history of Runeterra, and are known as symbols of cruelty and ferocity. Even a long time ago, they were the warriors of the gods who protected the Rune Land and were respected by everyone.

Naya Feili is one of the dark descendants, and he is also a relatively powerful one.

It's just that such a powerful dark descendant has now turned into a pack of dogs, which is a bit intimidating to people.

Even so, Lu Qi also knew that he should not be careless. He warned: "Be careful, these dogs are very strong."

"I can feel"

Taliyah took a deep breath. It was not difficult for her to deal with ordinary groups of desert hill dogs, but the feeling given to her by the group of hill dogs in front of her at this moment was extremely different.

The magical energy in her body was extremely restless, as if she sensed some danger.

At this time, on a high rock, a large, slender, and more impressive-looking mountain dog walked out, looking down at the three people below.

As the red light flashed in its eyes, barking sounds were heard one after another, and the dogs immediately pounced on it.

"Be careful."

Lu Qi took out his long sword, and as soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared from the spot.

There was a trace of doubt in Nayafili's eyes, as if he realized that humans were different this time, and then a strong sense of crisis suddenly emerged.

Luqi's extremely fast slash had already landed, but Nayafeli's reaction was even more astonishing. He started to dodge almost as soon as Luqi teleported towards him.

Nayafili was once almost able to unify all the dark descendants. His strength is naturally not weak, and his strong fighting instinct has not slowed down at all even if he is now turned into a pack of dogs.

At the same time, she also realized that the humans in front of her were different from any other ones she had encountered since becoming a pack of dogs.

She actually felt danger from him.

Taliyah was very surprised when she saw Lu Qi disappear in an instant, but she didn't care so much. When she raised her hand, rocks suddenly protruded from the ground and pushed away the group of attacking Qiu dogs.

Morgana also raised her hand to release magic, and a powerful wave of magic suddenly fell from the sky, smashing all the Qiu dogs rushing towards her into the sand.

Although she was deprived of the power of flying wings, she was an extremely powerful mage in her own right, and she did not panic at all when facing the Qiu Dogs, who were obviously thick-skinned and thick-skinned.

Taliyah finally felt relieved after seeing the strength of the two, because she realized that in the current battle, she could only protect herself.

The defense of this group of mound dogs is amazing. No matter how hard they are hit, they can stand up again in the blink of an eye and bark energetically.

She even pierced the body of a mountain dog with a raised rock thorn. Normally, it would have died, but she saw with her own eyes that the mountain dog recovered in an instant.

"Boom!"

There was a loud noise, and Taliyah found that the battle on Luqi's side was more intense, and the rock walls collapsed. She couldn't help but feel frightened.

In the dust that splashed on the ground, Lu Qi slashed out his sword very quickly, and a huge wind roared out, forming a huge tornado of sand and dust, which stunned Taliya again.

Is this wind-controlling swordsmanship?

Nayafili directly released the bleeding magic, forming a barrier to withstand the blow. At the same time, she raised her head and let out a wolf-like roar.

The blood-red aura suddenly surged through her body, and from all directions, scarlet rays of light flew at extremely fast speeds, rushing towards Lu Qi. It turned out to be a head-shaped dog.

These were her combat forces scattered everywhere in order to capture the living people more efficiently, but she had to call them all back at this moment.

She never expected that not long after she recovered from these sand dogs, she would encounter such a powerful human being.

She had been acting cautiously for a while.

There was more than one red light, and Lu Qi immediately dodged away, but was still hit by two of the Qiu dogs. He immediately felt a huge burst of power, and his body flew backwards.

He fell in mid-air, but disappeared again in an instant.

In the blink of an eye, his top-down sword fell again, and the terrifying sword intent exploded instantly. It directly broke through the defense formed by blood magic, followed closely by another sword.

The sword light flashed sharply, exuding a terrifying sense of oppression, and the powerful sword intent rushed towards his face. Nayafili immediately controlled several Qiu dogs to step forward and block the blow.

In just an instant, those Qiu dogs whose bodies she had strengthened were cut in half.

The next moment, Lu Qi's attack had penetrated these Qiu dogs and struck again.

Nayafili suddenly threw out the Darkin blade, and scarlet blood burst out, colliding with Lu Qi's blade, and a huge sound wave erupted.

At the same time, Qiu Dog, who was killed by Lu Qi, resurrected again and attacked from all directions.

Lu Qi took one step forward, and the air waves formed by the strong wind spread like a full moon, and the unstoppable sword energy flew away the surrounding dogs.

His eyes were solemn, and he knew that Naya Feli's body or mastermind should be the one that was obviously different.

Although the sense of oppression brought by Naya Feili was not as good as Zolani's, Lu Qi knew that her strength was not weak.

The Darklings are basically all proficient in blood magic. If they don't find a way to kill the main body, the battle will probably just repeat themselves endlessly.
