He snapped his fingers, and Nasus fell from the sky and landed in the desert. He landed on the ground, causing the earth to tremble. The dog-headed man roared furiously, raised the scepter in his hand, and looked around, looking for someone.

Maisha's figure.

"Stop, Nasus. She's gone." He Shenyan said to him.

After confirming that he no longer felt the aura of the cousin, Nasus dispersed the flames and yellow sand that were spinning around him and returned to his original shape. He said somewhat dullly: "She threw me away

Entering between two portals that were constantly teleporting each other, I just kept going back and forth in the door..."

"Ah, it's okay. A person I once knew had a similar experience to you. He was kept in the sky using a portal for twenty minutes without interruption."

"Really? What happened next?"

"Later he was beaten half to death by a purple sweet potato with a furrowed chin. Now he is missing a leg and is paralyzed. He is dragged around by his brother."

Nasus didn't know how to evaluate it, so he changed the subject: "Where's Maisha?"

"They were thrown back to the star realm by me. I will visit them after a while. As for now... it is time to release our friend trapped in the giant sword."

"Do you know how to remove the seal?" Nasus asked in surprise, but as soon as he said the words, he knew he had asked a stupid question.

Unexpectedly, He Shenyan didn't say anything else. He just said lightly: "Yes."

He walked into the giant sword and stretched out his hand to place it on the sword.

The giant sword began to vibrate and make a strange buzzing sound.

----------------------------------------

He screamed in the dark, as always.

Aatrox refused to think of the scene he had just recalled. He had just recalled his past appearance again. The resentment in his heart almost overwhelmed him. I once touched the stars... but now... I am...

Lock it here! Lock it in your own weapons!

He was crying and laughing as if he were a madman. Or maybe he already was.

Aatrox roared crazily in the darkness: "Maisa! You—"

He uttered a long list of ancient Shurima curse words that could not be translated, and then repeated hundreds of words that he wanted to cut her up, cut her into pieces, and so on. The last sentence was even close to babble, as if he was talking to himself.

say.

"Yes...I'm going to chop you up, cut you up, mince you..."

"Well, it sounds inhumane, but considering what you've been through and who you're trying to do it to, it's not so bad."

A strange voice sounded in the darkness, and Aatrox didn't respond. He was still mumbling to himself, as if he didn't hear He Shenyan's voice at all. Even if the wizard greeted him again, it was the same.

.

He Shenyan's mental body shrugged, and he directly shattered the darkness surrounding Aatrox and took him out of this special prison.

"ah--!"

Looking at the sun, Aatrox screamed. He took a few steps forward and fell to his knees weakly. He looked not like an ascended person at all, but a stray dog ​​on the roadside. He shook his hands

Covering his face, the sunlight almost drove him crazy: How could I see the sunlight? Did I come out? Or was I dreaming again?

He was crying and laughing as he knelt down and said something that no one could hear clearly. That look made Jax scratch his head again.

Nasus looked at his predecessor with complicated eyes. This leader of the Ascended Ones, who held a high status in the ancient Shurima Empire, still looked noble today. He was three meters tall when he knelt on the ground, with a golden faceplate and wings behind his back.

Shining brightly in the sun. Nasus knew that this was He Shenyan's handiwork.

Aatrox's noble form should have been destroyed long ago, but his current appearance matches all people's imaginations of him. That majestic and divine appearance is the model of the Ascended thousands of years ago.

Unfortunately, he did nothing but kneel on the ground and cry and scream.

Nasus turned his head and whispered to He Shenyan, "What's wrong with him?"

The mage gave Nasus a strange look: "I thought you knew this - he's crazy, otherwise?"

"Think about it, if you are thrown into a prison where you cannot move or even breathe for a thousand years. You will have to recall your past glory every moment, because this is the only way you can pass the time. But

Every time you recall it, the reality and darkness will hit you harder and harder."

"To be honest, he's just a little crazy. I'm starting to be surprised." He Shenyan shrugged and said.

Jax put the lamppost on his shoulders and said casually: "So, what are we going to do next? It looks like my old rival has gone crazy - oh, he stood up."

Hearing Jax's voice, Aatrox seemed to recall something. He turned his head and watched Jax slowly stand up, reaching out and holding the giant sword next to him. The next moment, he appeared in

In front of Jax, the contrast between the two was extremely strong. One was only 1.9 meters tall, but the other was a giant standing five meters tall.

"It's you! Icathian! Come! Meet me in death!"

The giant sword came down with a crash, but the ground shook and the mountains shook, but it was not able to hurt Jax at all. He calculated the distance, turned slightly sideways and jumped back to avoid the blow. Aatrox was now completely helpless.

Zhang Fa's attack was full of flaws in his eyes, but he did not choose to swing the lamppost.

He looked helplessly at the mage and the dog-headed man: "Hey, aren't you going to help?"

Just as he was speaking, Aatrox roared crazily, and the wings behind him flapped, stirring up strong winds: "Look at me! Come! Fight! You long-dead ghost! Come and make me feel pain! Like this

I’ll send you on your way!”

"It seems that he feels that he has gone completely crazy now and is fighting the opponent in his memory." Nasus said faintly. He couldn't help but feel sad for Aatrox. For any ascended person, this is not a good idea.

The ending it should be.

Even if they had a civil war that affected the entire continent, after all, they had fought against the void and protected the world. This is not the treatment that heroes deserve.

Jax once again dodged the blade of the giant sword. His shoulders dropped, he jumped slightly, and aligned his eyes with Aatrox. While his old strength was still there, he rounded the lamp post in his hand, and fiercely

Hit Aatrox hard in the face.

This powerful and heavy blow stunned the warrior with golden wings holding the giant sword. He stood there blankly. Jax landed lightly, carrying the lamp post, and asked casually: "Hey, what are you doing?

Do you still want to fight? Why are you standing there?"

Aatrox's hands began to tremble uncontrollably. He fell to his knees again, making strange noises from his throat, and his whole body was twitching as if he was suffering from epilepsy.

Jax wanted to step aside in disgust, but he blocked his way. Jax quickly raised the lamppost, but Aatrox looked at him like he was seeing a lover, which made him shudder.

"You, do you really exist?" Aatrox asked cautiously.

"...Oh, let me say, man. Are you being locked up stupid? Of course I am serious!" Jax replied impatiently: "Do you still want to fight...

?Wait, what do you mean?"

Aatrox pointed at his face: "Come on! Hit me again!"

"......ah?"

Jax even thought that he heard it wrong for a moment, but Aatrox said again: "Didn't you hear it clearly?! You damn purple bug, hurry up and hit me with the toothpick-like weapon in your hand.

!hurry up!"

He roared again at the end, and Jax's face under the mask was full of disgust. His lamppost lit up with golden light: "Well, you asked for this, you lunatic...

..”

"boom!"

Jax hit Aatrox on the head with the 'toothpick-like weapon' in his hand. The golden energy was obviously not a showpiece. This hit made Aatrox lie down, and he

I stared blankly at the blue sky, feeling the real temperature, and didn't move for a long time.

Should I beat him to death?

Just when Jax began to doubt this, Aatrox, who was lying on the ground, burst into laughter without any image, and the empty laughter spread far across the desert.

----------------------------------------

"My sincerest gratitude to you, Your Excellency."

"It's just a little effort."

"When we return to the Sun Disk! You will become the most distinguished guest of the empire! I swear by my sword, the yellow sand and the scorching sun will be witnesses!" Aatrox lowered his head and raised the giant in his hand.

Jian said solemnly.

His body was too big, and his voice was like a bell. The mage shook his head helplessly. After Aatrox realized that he was really out of trouble, things started to develop in a strange direction.

.

He first spent half an hour praising Queen Setaka, and then spent another half hour frantically thanking He Shenyan, selectively ignoring Nasus and Jax. But if that was all, it was him who

He likes to quote scriptures when talking, and he especially likes to write a long poem from time to time. He is more like a philosopher and poet than a warrior.

Looking at the sky of Shurima, Aatrox would spread his wings behind him, then raise his hands and start praising the sky: "Even after so many years, the sky of Shurima is still so dazzling!"

When walking through the sand dunes on the road, he would look at the cactus, then get closer and touch them gently. He would not even let go of the yellow sand under his feet. Along the way, he wrote thirteen long poems, eight of which were about the yellow sand.

, He Shenyan's refined words made He Shenyan click his tongue several times. Even Nasus couldn't stand him anymore and quietly distanced himself from him.

As for Jax…

He now regrets very much why he didn't hit him more harshly.

Seeing him like this, Nasus seemed to finally feel that he couldn't wait any longer. He walked up to Aatrox and said, "General——"

Aatrox interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "Which unit are you from? Who leads it?"
