Two Cities: I am building a mecha in Pi City - #526 - Chapter 524 Well of Death
Several other generals resigned, and Swain led Li Lin through the Immortal Fortress.
The empty and dark corridor echoed with the sound of footsteps. Compared to the Castle of Dawn in the capital of Demacia, there were not many people in the depths of the Immortal Fortress. There were not even a few guards along the way.
It was dark and desolate, completely devoid of the breath of the living.
This was supposed to be the place where those in power lived, but the Noxian emperors of all generations knew the origins of this place and what kind of existence was sealed under the Immortal Fortress, so they all had their own mansions.
This also resulted in the fact that there were almost no guards patrolling the interior of the core castle of the Immortal Fortress.
Thanks to the secrets unearthed from the depths of the Immortal Fortress, Swain is the first leader to dare to live here.
Just as Li Lin looked around curiously, Swain, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke: “There are many dangerous items inherited from ancient times in the Immortal Fortress. Even I don’t dare to investigate.”
“Besides the power of Mordekaiser, is there anything else in this world that demons can fear?”
Swain turned half of his body, looked back at Li Lin, and the corners of his mouth curved in a vague way, “Shouldn’t you know this question better than me?”
The scarlet left arm hidden in the shadow of the hem of the coat was revealed, and the middle-aged man walking in front shook his head slightly.
There are many things that can make demons afraid. As long as they are not the top ten demons in ancient times, knowing the demon’s true name can make their weaknesses exposed in the material realm.
Of course, with a magic powerful enough to defeat the Eyes of the Void like Ryze, you can also easily defeat them simply by relying on strength.
After all, among the currently known ordinary demons, only Eternal Nightmare Nocturne is good at fighting.
Tam Kenzie, the demon of desire, and Evelyn, the demon of pain, are not a big threat to humans, as long as they can restrain their emotions and not be tempted by them.
After walking in silence for a while, Li Lin found that they were going all the way down.
The rancidity of heavy metals appeared in the mouth, and a strong smell of death, like an old man dying, hit his face.
Li Lin had already guessed where Swain wanted to take him, “Shall we go to the Well of Death?”
“That’s right.” He didn’t look back, “I once dug for the buried truth deep in the Immortal Fortress, and found this place.”
The two of them walked up the elevator. Swain stretched out his hand and pulled the lever. The chain rubbed against the metal gears, and the simple elevator that had existed for an unknown number of years slowly descended.
Not long after, they finally came to an underground hall with a circular gap in the center.
The huge space was very dark, with only a few scattered pillars imprinted with “bright” rune imprints, and then countless chains hanging from different corners, extending together to the central circular pit – imprinted with various seals. The metal of the runes can hardly cover up the dark green color of death that shines through inside.
It has a similar aura to Shadow Island, but is fundamentally different.
A curse of immortality, a magic that belongs entirely to death.
Swain stood on the edge of the recessed position of the central ring without taking a step inside, but Li Lin didn’t have this taboo.
The Infinity Armor changed from clothes to style in the blink of an eye. The metal armor covered the whole body, and a translucent blue energy barrier appeared outside the body, completely blocking the influence of the Death Seal Technique on itself.
Li Lin walked towards the thickest cylindrical support column in the center and stopped at a distance of seven or eight meters. Going forward, he would activate the anti-gravity device to suspend it.
He lowered his head and looked down, and there was an inexplicable whisper in his ear. It seemed that the combination of thousands of emotionless voices was enough to easily drive an ordinary adult crazy.
This is a language that the living cannot understand and belongs exclusively to the dead – Ouchen language.
A group of forbidden necromancers specialize in this magical language. They will pray to the dead in exchange for certain items, and provide a medium with the breath of death for them to descend into the material realm to help them fight.
The Necromancer disappeared as early as the start of the Rune War a thousand years ago. Mainly because some stupid guys recalled the soul of Sarn U’zul after his death, but they could not use the powerful magic contained in his real name. Scatter him, for he has long since been renamed Mordekaiser in the Ochen language.
The Iron Armor Wraith massacred almost a generation of people, especially the Necromancers who were wandering in the Valoran continent, and were his primary targets.
With the anti-demon device and the Banshee Veil’s immunity to interference at the level of spiritual magic, Li Lin was completely unaffected by the words of the dead, and his attention was attracted by the deep pit with the flickering green light.
The chains extending from all directions in this hall are all locked on the bottomless black iron plate armor and a hammer in front of you, as if leading to the center of another dimension.
It is about four to five meters tall, and the length of the hammer is easily comparable to that of a strong adult.
Even though his body was wrapped in dense chains of green and blue runes, he couldn’t resist the aura of death emanating from them.
Of course, such strong death magic is partly due to the fact that the well of death itself can connect to the realm of the dead.
“In the beginning, that group of stupid necromancers communicated with the realm of the dead here and recalled Mordekaiser.” Swain’s voice was low.
However, deep in this dead underground, even if a thin needle falls to the ground, the sound it makes can be easily heard.
“So far, no conventional means can destroy this set of black iron plate armor and Nightfall Mace that once belonged to Mordekaiser… I think that with your skills, you should be able to destroy it.”
“That’s fine, but are you ready to face Mordekaiser?”
Li Lin withdrew his gaze from the depths of the Well of Death, took a slow breath, and retreated to Swain’s side.
After all, it is made of matter combined with magic. He does not need cosmic ray gamma beams at all. He can easily disintegrate the armor containing Mordekaiser’s soul with only matter-splitting beams.
Even if Li Lin doesn’t have this level of laser rays, with his current space travel technology, he can carry them to outer space.
The Realm of the Dead is only a part of Runeterra. No matter how powerful Mordekaiser is, he cannot use magic to affect the outside world.
but……
“This set of magical plate armor is not the key to Mordekaiser’s return to the physical realm, but the Well of Death can connect him to the realm of the dead.
“If Mordekaiser senses that his weapons and armor that should not have been destroyed are severed from him, will he lead the army of death in the Realm of the Dead to return early?”
Swain was silent for a moment, “I have considered what you said, but Ramo once revealed to me Noxus… no, it is the future of Runeland. This place will definitely become a paradise for the dead…”
“But the predicted future is only a part of many timeline branches.”
Li Lin chuckled, took off his armor, and showed off the watch transformed from the enlightenment rune fragments on his left wrist.
“You can use Ramo’s ability again to see if you can detect my future?”
Swain’s dark red eyes stared at Li Lin, and there was another brief silence. Then he laughed loudly, “It seems that I still underestimated you by a long way, Li Lin.”
“Mordekaiser’s return is inevitable, but we can choose to nip his plans in the bud.”
Li Lin glanced back at the well of death that sealed the black iron plate armor and Ye Yun. “Don’t rush now. We will have plenty of time after we deal with the black rose.”
