"I'm not going to perform the duty of the **** of death, I just want to enter the underworld safely, not to be a **** of death."

"I understand." Yang Ling said, "Then go see you."

Lothar didn't expect the sheep spirit to talk so well, maybe for her, hesitation is simply a bad root that mortals have.

Yang Ling raised his bow and arrow and shot an arrow at the empty place.

Then a torii appeared where the arrow fell.

"In the past, you can see your mother." Yang Ling said, "But whether she will give you a mask, I can't guarantee that mother always has her own ideas."

"I see, thank you." Lothar looked at Lamb.

"Why haven't you left yet?" Yang Ling asked.

"I want to... see you again..." Lothar sighed, "I think I may never see you again in the future."

The Lamb Spirit and the Wolf Spirit seemed unable to understand Lothar's feelings. The Lamb Spirit stood on tiptoe and gently touched Lothar's head: "You will die, and when you die, we will meet again."

"I'll bite you to death then!" the wolf spirit shouted, "Stronger than anyone else!"

"Then hope that day will never come." In the end, Lothar hugged the Lamb Spirit hard.

Sheepling was expressionless from beginning to end.

"A **** of death..." Lothar gave Qian Jue one last look, then turned and walked into the torii.

The moment Lothar disappeared into the torii, Kindred's form changed.

The snow-white wolf spirit turned into a pure black wolf with a sheep mask, eyes without pupils and fangs like shadows.

The girl Lamb Spirit has turned into a gray-white humanoid creature with a wolf mask. It is difficult to describe her posture, but no one will associate it with "people".

Because Lothar left, no one looked at Qian Jue. In this unique place, Qian Jue returned to her original Konoha Maru.

The wolf spirit growled: "Lamb! He will fail! He can't wear a mask! The vultures will find him!"

"Don't worry, dear wolf." Yang Ling said quietly, "He is no longer the child who needs to be cared for."

Chapter seven hundred and seventy-six to the underworld

The girls stood beside the dead Lothar, silent.

Ashe closed her eyes and prayed to Qian Jue for her husband's rebirth, while Syndra sat on a dark orb, staring at Diana.

Diana held the moonstone regenerator in her hand, only to hear a "ding", a jade with moonlight circulating in the moonstone regenerator was completed.

"Okay." Diana took out the moonstone, and after many days of collecting moonlight, the complete moonstone was finally made.

Nami took the moonstone with a trembling hand, she couldn't help crying with excitement, the merman's tears turned into pearls and rolled down the ground: "Great, great, I found the moonstone within the time limit! I The clansmen are saved!"

Diana showed a rare faint smile, perhaps because of the character of the merman girl, Diana also liked it very much: "This is an agreement between the Moonlight Sect and the merpeople from generation to generation, in fact, I should apologize for giving you the moonstone so late. , it is because something happened to the Bright Moon Sect, so it violated the agreement..."

Nami shook her head: "It's okay, I should be grateful that you don't have the light of the moonstone, my clan has long been swallowed by the darkness of the abyss of the sea."

Diana saw Nami's sincere thanks, so she stopped being polite: "When are you going to go back to Merman Village?"

"As fast as possible." Nami returned her heart like an arrow, "My clansmen are looking forward to the news of the moonstone every day. Although the last moonstone can last for a year or two, I still hope that they can see it sooner. To the new moonstone, no more worrying all day."

Syndra floated over at this time and hugged Nami from behind: "Are you going?"

"Miss Syndra..." Nami held Syndra's hand, "I'm just leaving for a while, I'm a Tidecaller, I will travel faster than flying on the sea, wait until I send the moonstone back Village, I will come back and I want to continue the adventure with you."

Syndra's lips trembled. She was a little reluctant to let the girl who had been with her all the time, but Syndra was no longer the reckless her she used to be. Although she was still willful, she would not force Nami to stay. : "I see... go and come back..."

Ashe opened his eyes at this time and said, "Then at least wait until you say goodbye to Lothar before leaving."

"Well, that's what I thought too." Nami readily agreed, "But Mr. Lothar has been dead all day. When will he wake up?"

Neither Ashe and Syndra could tell, they could only turn their attention to Diana.

"I don't know either." Diana said, "I know very little about this aspect of him [Lothar], and I don't know what power he has in life and death."

"But you know the other side of Lothar very well, right?" Syndra said.

Diana nodded: "Luo Thirty... In my nation, this name symbolizes the sun and the moon. This is also the power of Luo Thirty. He conquered the sun and the moon."

"Conquered the sun and the moon?" Ashe, Syndra, and Nami looked at each other, completely incomprehensible, but they always felt very powerful.

"It's literally conquest." Diana looked up at the sky, "Beyond that day, there are many gods from outside the realm who don't live in Runeterra. We call them giant gods. Every star in the sky symbolizes a giant god. . And the Titans of the Sun and the Moon are the closest to Runeterra, and we are all bathed in their light."

"They?" Syndra frowned, just about to ask more clearly, only to hear Nami exclaimed.

"Lothar has come to live first!" Nami took the moonstone and rushed over to hug Lothar, "Mr. Lothar, look at you! Miss Diana gave me the moonstone!"

Lothar smiled and patted Nami's head. I don't know if she just came back to life. Lothar looked very weak: "It seems that we have all gained something."

Ashe approached with concern: "Are you all right? How is your body?"

"It's okay, but it looks like it will take a while to cultivate." Rosa said.

Syndra carefully checked whether Lothar's body was injured: "By the way, have you seen the **** of death?"

Lothar smiled: "I saw it, and it's Qian Jue."

"Qian Jue!" Ashe exclaimed, "Have you really seen Qian Jue? Twin sheep and wolves?"

"Why am I lying to you?" Lothar briefly recounted what he had experienced after his death.

Of course, skipped the part of having **** with three half-human, half-beast girls in the fountain of life and death.

"So you are really the child of Kindred." Ashe already believed it completely. If it wasn't the son of the **** of death, Ashe couldn't imagine anyone else who could come back to life like Lothar said.

"It's not really appropriate to say that it's a mother and a child." Lothar thought for a while, "I should be considered a kind of ... made by Qian Jue. Mother."

Nami patted Lothar's head: "It's so complicated... But don't be sad, Mr. Lothar."

"I'm not sad, after all, Qian Jue is a god, so it's hard to restrain a **** with human thoughts... Help me get up." Lothar got up with the help of the girls, "But the purpose of this trip is considered a successful completion, see you successfully. When I got to the Mother of Masks, I got what I wanted."

"What did you get from that Mother of Masks?" Ashe asked.

Lothar spread out his hands, a wisp of black mist emerged from his palm, and then a wolf-head mask appeared from the black mist, but it was not hideous at all, because the image of the mask was a little wolf cub.

"It's so cute." Ashe couldn't help laughing, "It seems that the mother of masks has such an opinion on you."

Lothar was a little embarrassed: "I don't know why the mother of masks gave me this mask."

Diana suddenly interjected: "You got this mask that can freely enter and exit the underworld, at what cost?"

The girls were awe-inspiring, they all knew that Lothar could not get this kind of thing without paying anything.

"I have a promise with the Mother of Masks." Lothar said, "I must return all the souls of Shadow Island to the Underworld within my lifespan, and completely cut off the passage between Shadow Island and the Underworld."

"What if you don't?" Ash was worried.

"The Mother of Masks didn't say what would happen if I didn't do it." Lothar touched his beloved wife's hair to reassure her, "Don't use people's thoughts to speculate on God, even if I fail the appointment, the Mother of Masks will not treat me. How, she won't even be angry."

Syndra's eyes lit up: "Then didn't you make a profit?"

"What do you earn? I originally wanted to solve the matter of Shadow Island." Lothar said, "A gathering place for a large number of undead in the material realm is too dangerous. Don't you think we encountered undead in the Silver Mountains?

If some of the people who died in the material realm are stranded on the Shadow Island every day, the number of undead in the Shadow Island will increase over time, and I am afraid it will evolve into a disaster for the entire Runeterra. "

Ashe expressed support for Lothar: "Do what you want, and I'll be with you no matter what."

"By the way, there is only one mask, can we accompany you to the underworld?" Syndra curiously poked the mask in Lothar's hand, not feeling anything special about it.

"There's no problem with this, I can take you to the underworld with me." Lothar looked at Nami, "But what are you going to do? Go to the underworld with us or go back to your hometown?"

Nami looked very tangled, she really wanted to see what the underworld was like, but when she looked at the moonstone in her hand, she couldn't help but think of the clansmen in her hometown: "I... I'd better go back first... "

"Alright." Lothar respected Nami's choice. "You don't need to look for us after you bring the moonstone back. You can go directly to Avarosa. If nothing else happens, we'll go back after we've dealt with the underworld."

"Yeah!" Nami finally hugged everyone reluctantly, then jumped into the river and flew away quickly.

Syndra looked at Nami's back as she left, feeling lost.

"It's not that I'll never see you again, don't be like this." Lothar hugged Syndra.

"I'm not sad..." Syndra buried her face in Lothar's arms.

Ashe looked at Syndra understandingly, and she knew that the separation was the saddest thing.

"Where are we going next?" Diana asked after putting away the moonstone regenerator.

"Go to Shadow Island." Lothar's eyes were looking at the sea to the south, "Although it is not the time to solve the problem of Shadow Island, the problem of Shadow Island is too complicated and cannot be solved overnight. But since we are going to the underworld, we will go to the shadows. The island is undoubtedly the fastest way."

"Is there anything I need to pay attention to?" Ashe has never faced an undead before, and asked cautiously, "Next, don't think about going into battle alone, I'm not just here to accompany you for sightseeing, I'll also contribute. "

"It's natural." Lothar thought for a while, "Why don't you try it out and see how it feels to die?"

...

Underworld.

Chaos, nothingness, only the wandering dead souls, making meaningless wailing and moaning, waiting for the existence of their souls to melt into the black mist, just like the body that they once had returned to the dust.

But this is the underworld of the past.

Today's underworld has order.

And the name of the order is Mordekaiser.

In the middle of the vast land of the underworld, a huge fortress was built here. This fortress is even bigger than the immortal fortress of Noxus. It was built purely with the hard underworld soil of the underworld. Build this fortress as magnificent as a mountain.

At the top of the fortress, a huge dark iron armor stood there.

The inside of the armor is burning with a raging fire, which is a highly condensed underworld energy, and its power is so strong that his existence itself can affect the operation of the entire underworld.

"Hehehe..." The armor laughed out loud, "There are some guests... here."

In the entire underworld, because of the good mood of the armor, the black mist began to become active.

All souls of the underworld, listen to my orders!

Kill the invaders!

- Order of the Underworld

Chapter 777 Welcome to the Underworld

As soon as Lothar and the others entered the underworld, their attention was taken away by the desolation and silence here.

Ashe had never thought that there was a colder place in the world than the Freljord in the winter.

Today, she saw it.

The girls approached Lothar involuntarily. They were all soul bodies at this time. Lothar took out their souls, because the body of the underworld cannot enter, and forcing it in will only destroy the body, but everyone can still bring their weapons and equipment. Come, they are not counted as "life".

This is also the reason why Lothar did not bring the pure white hunting bow with him. The pure white hunting bow is a living weapon, and Lothar cannot bring it into the underworld.

The flesh of everyone is now placed in the air fortress, which hovers over the Shadow Island and is guarded by Kalista, Hecarim, and their Wraith Warriors and Necromancers, so there is no need to worry about the physical experience. No matter what happened, Lothar could immediately get the news from Kalista and Hecarim.

Lothar wears a wolf mask on his face. This symbol of death allows him to come to the underworld, but Lothar is actually the first time he has come to the underworld. The dark fog here is so thick that it is hard to imagine that Lothar and others are not real The souls of the dead, but the souls of the living. Excessive black mist will damage their souls. Lothar had to use his body to protect the three daughters, and took out the Book of the Dead to search for the magic spell to protect everyone.

"Found, [frozen corpse, frozen soul]." Lothar sang.

The trembling three female souls slowly returned to normal.

Ashe also smiled bitterly: "There is really a place in this world that is more desolate and colder than Freljord. To be honest, I even start to miss the winter in Freljord."

"I hope this trip goes well." Lothar hugged the three daughters, "Remember, our purpose in the underworld is not to defeat Mordekaiser. Mordekaiser is basically invincible in the underworld, and the entire underworld is under his control. Down,

Fighting him is tantamount to fighting a shark in the deep sea, the odds are slim, you know? "

Syndra was a little unconvinced: "No matter how strong it is, it is still possible to be defeated. We are not weak, little Vega, don't you think?"

"Don't call me that!" Vega, the young yordle standing next to Syndra, was furious.

The yordles are indeed a kind of magical creatures. Veiga does not even need Lothar to help extract his soul, and he can stay in the underworld directly and unharmed. Lothar can only be attributed to the special physique of Veiga, which is an energy body, so to do this.

"Okay, let's go." Lothar looked into the distance. On the vast and flat land of the underworld, a huge mountain-like fortress stood in the distance.
