The Ancient Water Dragon

When people first saw a large number of dragons appearing, they took up weapons to fight. It was not until the void monsters invaded that they realized that the dragons were helping them, so they began to flee. ♙♜ ❻9 🐙👽

Eight Ancient Dragon are scattered across various regions, guiding humanity in different ways while simultaneously blocking the invasion of the void.

This canyon is the closest human settlement to Icathia, and every evening at dusk, large numbers of monsters attack it. It must be protected with all efforts before the people evacuate.

Besides the Earth Dragon Ers, the Water Dragon Morren is also nearby. He created a large river in the Icathia Mountains, greatly hindering the monsters' progress, but after so many days, it's estimated that he's about to give up.

After learning about the situation here, we said goodbye to Ers and continued south, preparing to go to the front lines to help Morren.

The further south we went, the stronger the fluctuations in the void energy became. Jax's body had adapted to this energy, and I could tolerate it, but Poppy seemed to be having a lot of trouble.

I was worried something might happen to her, so I sent her back to the Grand Canyon to help Ers.

As dusk approached, Jax and I chose to take cover. At this time, the Void Creatures were stronger than usual, so there was no need for a direct confrontation.

We took Hextech Motorcycle and flew high into the sky, planning to continue our journey after nightfall. Of course, the sky wasn't necessarily safe either, but there were relatively fewer monsters there.

As night fell, we continued our groping journey. We could no longer see any humans, only various monsters crawling around. After daybreak, we finally reached the Icathia Mountains.

Before the Void Rift opened, this was a beautiful place, with a vibrant landscape no less than the primeval forests of Ionia.

But now the ground is completely black, the sky is obscured by purple light, and demons are dancing wildly everywhere.

At the foot of the mountain, a great river surged with tremendous force, its waters polluted to a purplish-black. It seemed this was the barrier created by the Water Dragon, Morren.

Jax stood gazing at the scene of his homeland for a moment, his face showing no trace of sorrow. His mask had long since been shattered by the Vastaya, and his terrifying face could not possibly convey any more grief.

"They say that peaceful times fly by, while suffering is excruciating. Why do I feel like time is passing so quickly even though I'm tormented by the energy of the void every day? Thinking back to that war more than two thousand years ago, it seems like it was just a short while ago."

"The war is over two thousand years old, but the subjective feelings are different. As long as the pain is clear enough, if you think about it yesterday, it's as if it just happened yesterday, not two thousand years ago."

"Hahaha... Your words are very interesting, Yasuo. Let's go find the Water Dragon."

This great river flows along the mountain range, connecting the ocean on both sides, directly separating the Icathia Peninsula from the Shurima Continent.

Following the riverbank, we quickly found Morren. He was broad and stout, but his movements were swift and efficient. He managed to maintain the towering waves while also dealing with the monsters.

He was delighted to see me arrive. "You're here, Yasuo! Hurry up and help me clear out these monsters. I need to rest for a bit; I'm exhausted!"

"Okay, leave it to me!"

I immediately conjured a powerful gust of wind to protect Morren, allowing him to recover his strength. As he withdrew his power, the water level also calmed down.

Only then did I see that countless monsters had gathered in the water. With the resistance decreasing, they were struggling to climb upwards.

"Senior Morren, there are less than 10,000 men left in the Grand Canyon behind us. If we hold out for two more days, we should be able to retreat."

"Stop talking big, Yasuo. Forget two days, at this rate, we'll be lucky if we can even last until nightfall!"

"Haven't you been holding out for several days already?"

"That's because there were fewer monsters before, and they were weaker. Now that the void rift is fully open, the monsters have fully awakened and have become very difficult to deal with since yesterday. We need to be careful tonight, and if things get too dangerous, we should run."

"But the rear can't be evacuated that quickly, can it?"

"It's not that they don't have enough time, it's that they're too slow! Too many people are attached to their hometown, so let them stay and stay with this land forever!"

"... Then let's do our best!"

Morren is right. It's not that there isn't enough time, but that people are too attached to their hometowns. I saw this clearly in the Grand Canyon.

If the invasion of the Void is truly unstoppable, then we have no choice but to retreat. Let's hope people can evacuate as much as possible!

As darkness fell, the monsters' attacks intensified. Morren acted once more, summoning waves to halt the monsters' advance.

Jax and I had been busy all day, and now we were so engrossed in our work that we didn't care about being tired. Instead, we worked even harder. Just as the battle was in full swing, a Giant Monster appeared.

Its shape resembles a carnivorous plant, with a huge mouth filled with black sharp teeth when it opens, and a tongue that spews out green sap like a jet sprayer, which is extremely corrosive.

In addition to these features, it also has eyes and limbs, making it clearly more advanced in form. Most surprisingly, it can actually speak!

"It's lunchtime!"

No wonder it looked familiar; it's Kog'Maw! I didn't recognize it at first glance when it suddenly grew so big. It's even more disgusting in person than in the game.

"This monster has some history, be careful!" I quickly reminded Morren and Jax.

"Watch me tear it to shreds!"

Morren roared and transformed into a giant dragon, its azure-blue appearance quite beautiful, and it attacked without mercy!

The attack methods of Water Element force are quite similar to those of Wind Element; both can be condensed into various shapes for thrusting attacks.

The difference is that water power is not as strong as Wind Force, and it is more about control than offense, which is why he was left here to block the monsters.

Kog'Maw kept spewing out its juices to fight against Morren, and the two attacks corroded and evaporated in mid-air after they collided.

I didn't have time to observe closely; I continued hacking away at the monsters around me. Besides Kog'Maw, there were many powerful aliens nearby, and I had to deal with them as soon as possible.

Even with his unparalleled bravery, Jax could only ensure his own survival; he couldn't stop too many monsters.

My widest attack range is the Janna style, but its effect is only a few thousand meters in radius, making it completely incapable of blocking attacks over a large area like Morren's.

"Think of something, Senior Morren! We can't stop so many monsters!"

"There's nothing we can do! Many people go out every evening around dusk. Don't worry about it, just do your best!"

Even the ancient Water Dragon has said so, so it seems there's no other way. We can't stop all the monsters, and at the current rate, we can only hold out until nightfall before we have to leave.

At first, I was afraid of being surrounded by these monsters. In fact, they weren't interested in us. Only a few would occasionally pounce, but most of them kept running away, I don't know why.
