Two Cities: I am building a mecha in Pi City - #540 - Chapter 538 Frost Witch
Due to the seal, Gregory could not move too far away from his frozen body. It was precisely because of this that he was bounced back when he tried to fly to the Frostguard Fortress.
This arcane sealing magic derived from the world’s runes has completely imprisoned it here. If the magic is used to tear it apart, Gregor’s soul may be annihilated.
Even Li Lin has no choice but to go to Demacia to get the world runes.
After careful consideration, or due to his insistence on his duty, Gregor gave up the idea of facing Lissandra directly, and asked Ashe, Sejuani and Li Lin to take their share and kill the traitor.
His soul returned to the frozen stone pillars, and the six rune stone tablets sank into the underground platform and were soon covered by the falling ice and snow.
The anti-gravity device and engine were started, and Li Lin, Ashe and Sejuani flew straight towards the bridge built by Orn.
This bridge has many names, including “Place of Trial”, “Murder Bridge”, “Bridge of the Keep”, “Howling Vault” and so on.
But Sejuani, who has been in contact with the Frost Guards, knows that inside the Frost Guards, it is often called the “Bridge of Sorrow” because thousands of Iceborn once died here, just to fight against the Frost Watchers.
Of course, the history they know is only what the Frost Witch deliberately spread. Li Lin knows that the truth of past history, the only true record of the manuscript, was written by Lissandra’s most trusted subordinate, and is now sealed in the Frostguard Fortress. deep.
The bridge above the rift is not the only Bridge of Sorrow, but this bridge is the main bridge at the top.
From north to south, more than a dozen bridges span the chasm, many of which are well below the cliffs and connect to buildings built within the glacier.
The thick fog spreading from the abyss engulfed most areas. These bridges were basically blocked by the Frost Guards themselves, and seemed to be used to restrict access to the Ice Guard Fortress.
There is only one open bridge, which is two to three hundred meters away from the Bridge of Sorrow.
Although Li Lin’s mechanical army could easily crush Lissandra and her Iceborn army, he still chose to stay at the bridge instead of confronting them.
Even the ultimate in elemental magic, the perfect ice created by Anivia, the demigod in charge of winter, and the Ornn Bridge as a sealing node, cannot completely seal the Void Monitor.
Thousands of years have passed, and the ice under the Howling Abyss has been almost eroded by the power of corruption. If Lissandra hadn’t been collecting dreams to maintain the sleeper state of the monitor, they would have broken out of the ice long ago.
She is the top priority in maintaining the seal. If it is not necessary, Li Lin does not want to fall out with her for the time being.
The reason why he came to the door in advance was that he wanted to negotiate with Lissandra and implement the “Great Wall Plan” near the Howling Abyss and Ice Guard Fortress to establish the first line of defense.
Before the three of them landed on the bridge, their battle armor transformed into ordinary clothes.
Guarding the main bridge were two male Iceborn men. They were bare-chested and expressionless, holding spears with Zhenbing tips in their hands. Their strong muscles were covered with scars, like veterans who had experienced countless battles.
When they saw the three strange intruders, Li Lin, Ashe, and Sejuani, they were not nervous, and they did not even raise their weapons, as if they had anticipated the arrival of the three of them.
Li Lin gave Ai Xi a look, but before she could introduce herself, one of the Iceborn took a step forward and quickly looked at the three of them with cold eyes.
“She’s already waiting for you.” The man just said casually, turning half sideways with the guards around him to make way for them.
Not only Ashe and Sejuani, but also Li Lin were slightly confused, but they were soon relieved.
He cracked the magic used by Lissandra to seal the stone tablet and tamper with Gregor’s memory. This guy will definitely have a back-up plan on it.
Gregor’s case was revealed, not to mention that Ashe is currently eager to unify the Freljord. It is only a matter of time before she comes to her door, and Lissandra has already been prepared.
Unlike Ashe and Sejuani who started to hesitate when they arrived at the entrance of the Frost Guard Fortress, Li Lin, who was not likely to be worried at all, strode forward and passed the two Frost Guards.
The two war mothers hurriedly followed his footsteps, shoulder level with him, and stepped onto the Bridge of Sorrow.
Along the way, the three of them met many frost guards. They all stuck to their posts and turned a blind eye to the three uninvited guests.
Crossing the Bridge of Sorrow hundreds of meters away, dozens of thick chains were dragged through the magic stone pillars emitting cold light on both sides, pulling up the gate that blocked the bridge head, which was made of melted metal and boulders and sealed with a layer of perfect ice. , revealing the magic teleportation array behind.
Under the guidance of the guide, Li Lin, Ashe and Sejuani stood in the center of the arcane circle engraved with runes. After a moment of spinning and trance, the vision in front of them suddenly changed. Entering the interior of the Frostguard Fortress among the glaciers.
The temperature here is extremely cold, far lower than the harsh weather outside when the wind howls and the snow falls. The hall of the Frost Guard Fortress is seventy or eighty meters high, always showing a dim ice blue color, without any light.
On the frozen ground stand countless criss-crossed icy granite blades, only half of which is exposed to the outside world. They exude an aggressive edge. Beside each giant blade, there is a frost priest wearing a sacrificial robe waiting.
This is a weapon that Lissandra has spent thousands of years forging. It is the last resort used to fight against the Void Watcher. All Frost Priests must be prepared at all times, so that they will respond immediately as soon as they hear the alarm.
This is a magical miracle constructed purely by human power, which is completely different from the mechanical “miracle” created by Li Lin.
Sejuani was shocked, and Ashe had seen the live video of Li Lin piloting a mecha to fight against the void. Although he was not as shocked as his robed sisters, he was equally moved.
At this time, a man wearing a strange inverted triangle-shaped hood and an ice-blue floor-length robe stepped forward and saluted the three of them respectfully.
“My name is Draklon Blizzard. Our matriarch, Lady Ice and Darkness, is waiting for you. I will lead the way for you.” After saying that, Drakron turned around and said, “President Li Lin, Ashe, Se Zhuang Ni Zhan’s mother, please come with me.”
The name Dracron was very familiar to Li Lin, but he had not paid much attention to it in the past. As a result, even after strengthening his intelligence, he never recalled the name.
When he was leading the way for the three of them, Li Lin finally learned the identity of this guy through “digital thinking”:
He turned out to be one of the highest clergy in the Frostguard Fortress, directly taking orders from the Frost Witch’s priests!
Lissandra actually sent her confidants to greet us, and it seems that she attaches great importance to us…
Li Lin thought about it in his heart.
The Frostguard Fortress is very large, much larger than it appears from the outside. Because it is built on glaciers and mountains, there are countless expandable spaces inside.
After passing through several teleportation magic circles, they finally arrived at the core hall of the fortress – a huge Frozen Throne facing the entrance door. The man was wearing a gorgeous ice blue robe and a hood similar to Dracron, but A woman who looked even more majestic and cold was sitting on the throne.
Her right arm was leaning on the armrest of the throne, and she stretched out her hand to drag her chin. The cuffs of her sleeves slid down, and her sickly ice-blue skin seemed to be covered with a layer of perfect ice armor. Just by scanning her big eyes, she could feel the coldness that touched her soul. .
Ashe and Sejuani felt nervous at the same time, while Li Lin narrowed his eyes and stared at the woman across the dim hall from a distance, looking at the empty pair of eyes under the hood.
At this time, Lissandra spoke, her voice sounded cold and lazy, as if she had just woken up from an endless sleep:
“Welcome to my main castle, the descendants of Avarosa and Serelda, and… the darling of our world, Li Lin.”
