[0797] The Corrupted Merfolk Pearl

Swept into the reservoir, Renekton had no chance to fight back for the moment. The force of the current left even an Ascended disoriented, tumbling him upside down and around until he could no longer tell left from right.

Unless the current in the reservoir completely died down, Renekton had no hope of escaping.

While he had the chance, Nasus needed to seal him away temporarily.

Sealing an Ascended wasn't simple. Even though Nasus knew over a hundred different kinds of sealing techniques, only a handful could be used on an Ascended.

Considering that he also had to ensure Renekton's safety, the most reliable method would be an Elemental Seal.

An Elemental Seal was cumbersome, and drawing the Magic Array was troublesome. Fortunately, this was the site of an old underground waterway, and the walls in many places could be dismantled and used as sealing materials. All Nasus had to do was use them to build a sealing platform, then prop Renekton up on it and encase him in mud and sand. That would be enough to restrain him temporarily.

Knowing that Renekton would be free again once the current stopped, Nasus searched for walls he could dismantle and put to use, while also seeking out Nami.

He needed a few assistants for the sealing.

They were not eager to get involved in anything more.

However, after a moment's thought, Nami agreed to Nasus's request—though she had a condition of her own.

She asked Nasus to take a look at these Vastaya.

Nami didn't
