All Doing Their Part

Garr is stationed on a major road in central Shurima, a place densely populated and frequently teeming with Void Creatures. ஜ۩۞۩ஜ ஜ۩۞۩ஜ

Seeing Morren's injuries, he was heartbroken and immediately Power of Light to heal him. The less infected areas recovered quickly, but his back, wings, and legs could not be healed.

In particular, the left leg bone was already exposed, and the mucus was still working, relentlessly eroding the upper body.

This is the kind of massive blobs of slime that Kog'Maw spews out; it completely corroded even Hextech Motorcycle, making it even more terrifying than the Void Infestation!

"Go ahead, Brother Garr, my leg is beyond saving, and if this continues, it will spread to my whole body." Morren was extremely weak.

"Let me think of another way!"

Garr continued to increase the Power of Light, but he could not eliminate the effects of the slime. If he continued to increase the power, the healing light would turn into the light of destruction.

In the end, he gave up treatment. His hands trembled uncontrollably. Even after living for countless years, he still couldn't bring himself to harm his own brother.

I couldn't bear to see him like this, so I silently drew my Gale Sword: "Let me do it Garr, Senior Gar!"

He didn't speak, and slowly withdrew his hand. I conjured Wind Slash, instantly severing Morren's left leg.

"Good job, kid! That's what you call decisive!" Morren gritted his teeth and forced out the words.

The erosion problem has been solved, but the infection on the back and wings cannot be eliminated.

Morren said he felt no discomfort, whether to avoid worrying us or because it wasn't affecting him yet, his injury had stabilized, and we began to discuss our next steps.

At the current rate, Shurima Continent is no longer defensible. Its terrain is flat and lacks mountains and valleys, making it impossible to create a defensive line like the Heart of the Land.

The only solution now is to urge people to leave as soon as possible, gather everyone in Valoran, expand the two lines of defense, the Heart of the Land and the Victory Barrier, surround the human settlements, and then study these Void Creatures carefully and find a way to eliminate them.

We currently know too little about the void, which prevents us from effectively eliminating it, and this is a huge problem.

If the situation worsens, we'll need to move to Ionia, the only place without Void Rifts.

However, this also means that we will have to give up two continents, which basically signifies humanity's defeat, and it seems impossible to take them back.

"Don't think that far ahead. You guys recover your strength first. I'll ask the other brothers how things are going."

Ers told us to rest well, and then contacted several other places in a unique way among the Ancient Dragon.

I also took this opportunity to ask about Sivir's situation, "Why Khopesh in your hands?"

Is Khopesh your biggest concern?

"Um... so how are you and the child?"

"Pfft! You're usually so decisive, but it turns out you have a clumsy side too. Don't worry, we're fine..." Sivir said slowly.

That day on the western battlefield, they were assigned to different roles based on the enemy's situation:

Kled, Jax, Djis, Oken, and Renekton were tasked with dealing with the Vastaya army, Varus, skilled in aerial combat, was tasked with dealing with Xerath, and Sivir was to face Azir.

She was no match for Azir at first, but they fought to a standstill. At first, she thought Khopesh was too strong, but later she realized that Azir was deliberately letting her win.

Sure enough, not long after, Azir secretly told Sivir that he wanted to join forces with her to deal with Xerath, but they needed to find a suitable opportunity.

The ferocity of the battle goes without saying. As many Vastaya were eliminated one after another, Renekton and several other Ascended also perished, leaving only Sivir, Jax, Azir, and Xerath.

At this moment, Azir deliberately allowed himself to be cut by Khopesh, pretending to withdraw from the battlefield. Xerath had just killed Varus, immediately turned his attention to him upon seeing this.

Sivir was no match for this Archmage and was soon suppressed by the strong magic. In the midst of the crisis, Azir seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, Jax also joined the fray.

Although they succeeded, Xerath was not killed and even launched a fierce counterattack against three opponents.

Sivir is unsure of the final outcome, as she was knocked unconscious midway through the fight. It now appears that Shetaka saved her, while Azir and Xerath perished together.

When Sivir woke up, Shetaka was burying Rebeca. They grieved together for a while, and then they talked about the war.

Shetaka didn't want her to continue participating in the upcoming war, but Sivir insisted on fighting alongside me, so a conflict inevitably arose.

In the end, neither of them could convince the other, so they decided to let Khopesh make the choice.

There are now two Ascended Empress, but only one Khopesh. Whoever can wield this divine weapon will be in charge.

This was an unfair contest for Sivir, because Khopesh was Shetaka's weapon, and yet she lost this time.

There's no doubt that Shetaka was more skilled, more versatile, and more powerful, but Khopesh ultimately chose Sivir.

Seeing Shetaka's dejected look, Sivir knew she meant well, or rather, cared about her own bloodline, so she told her about our child and asked her to help take care of him.

Sure enough, Shetaka was overjoyed to hear this and agreed. Together they found Calista, handed over the child, and then rushed to Shurima.

"Since Khopesh has chosen me, it means I am the true master of Shurima, and I am responsible for this vast land!"

"You're similar to Irelia in this respect, but what I want to say is that this war is not about 'you' or 'me'; we're all in this together!"

After our conversation, Ers also obtained information from other regions, which he then shared:

Wood Dragon Sean is located on the easternmost coastal area of the continent. There are still many people there. In addition to fleeing to the Valoran Continent, many others have taken ships to Bilgewater. Overall, it is relatively safe.

The Fire Dragon Glad was located near Sun City. Because Azir rebuilt the capital, many merchants and tourists gathered there, but now most of them have left.

Ice Dragon Toller is located in the southwest corner of the continent, very close to the beautiful Garden City. Some people who retired there were unwilling to travel and chose to live and die with their homeland, while the young people all fled.

The rock dragon Strucker is not far from us. He guards the main road from the Shurima Continent to Valoran, and has built many rock bridges to help people cross the sea, saving countless lives.

Wind Dragon Qifu's reach is much wider. Like me, he is skilled at manipulating Wind Element and is extremely fast. These past few days, he has been traveling around, helping wherever there is trouble.

Having learned the details, Ers decided to take Morren to Valoran to recuperate, and also to continue expanding the defenses with Ornn.

A few of us will go north to meet up with Strucker, and once the number of refugees decreases, we'll also retreat back to Valoran.
