Runeterra: I actually know a little bit about everything

Zuo Chi surveyed the bustling Avarosa tribe ahead, pondering what he should do.

How about we go hunting?

Although the Avarosa tribe does not currently have to worry about food, no one can predict how long this cold winter will last.

In this cold weather, the meat and fat of large prey are extremely important strategic resources.

With his current strength, dealing with those large prey shouldn't be a problem. He can also take advantage of the fact that there are still prey around to accumulate more supplies.

However, just as Zuo Chi made up his mind to ask someone where there were large prey, Aisha's slaying machine, Sigra, ran towards him.

"Blood Pact."

Upon approaching, Sigra bowed slightly to Zuo Chi: "Where is the War Mother? We just received intelligence from the southern part of the tribe."

"Hmm?" Zuo Chi frowned.

Was there a battle?

However, given Aisha's current condition, Zuo Chi could only say, "War Mother is still resting and may not wake up for a while."

Upon hearing Zuo Chi's words, a distinct look of astonishment flashed across Sigra's eyes.

In her memory, Aisha would get up early almost every day to handle tribal affairs, and sometimes she would even stay up all night.

Why today?

Suddenly, Sigra seemed to have thought of something, and then her eyes gleamed as she looked at Zuo Chi with great certainty.

She then said, "The Blood Alliance is the same as telling you. Please convey this to the War Mother later."

Zuo Chi nodded.

Seeing that Zuo Chi had agreed, Xigra quickly said:

"Just this morning, the Winter's Claws suddenly crossed the southern border of the Avarosan tribe, and their force was enormous, with nearly a thousand warriors. This is practically the entire Winter's Claws!"

Chapter 110 Summoning the Bearmen!

After handing the intelligence over to Zuo Chi, Sigra left quickly, seemingly to gather manpower.

Zuo Chi temporarily abandoned the idea of ​​going hunting and turned back to his room.

"Mmm~~"

Awakened by the sound of the door opening and closing, Aisha lazily stretched in bed.

"Zuo Chi, what's wrong?"

Zuo Chi came to the bedside and helped Ai Xi tidy up her somewhat messy hair.

The matter was of great importance, and Zuo Chi did not delay, saying directly:

"Sigra just sent over intelligence from the southern part of the tribe, which is related to the Claw of Winter."

"Hmm?" Upon hearing Zuo Chi's words, Ai Xi rubbed her sleepy eyes, instantly losing all sleepiness.

Sitting up from the covers, Aisha looked at Zuo Chi: "What's wrong?"

Zuo Chi repeated what Sigra had just said to Aisha, who fell into a brief silence after listening.

After a moment's hesitation, Ashe said softly, "Is Winter's Claw going to attack the Avarosan tribe? But why haven't they raided any villages along the way?"

Zuo Chi slowly shook his head: "Could it be that their target isn't the Avarosa tribe, but someone else?"

Ashe nodded slightly: "Since she swept through the southern part of the Avarosan tribe, her targets are only two: the Frost Guardians and Noxus!"

“If Sejuani’s target is both of them, the Avarosan tribe can ignore it, but if her target is the Avarosan tribe, then we have to go and see.”

Currently, the most important issue is that Ashe and Zuochi are unable to determine the true purpose of Winter's Claw.

If it's Noxus or the Frost Guardians, that's fine, but if their crossing of the Avarosan tribe's southern border is just a ruse, and they're actually still secretly preparing to attack them, then it'll be more troublesome.

However, although Zuo Chi couldn't determine Sejuani's purpose, he could vaguely guess that Sejuani was going to fight to the death.

They must take advantage of the relatively abundant supplies and seize as much food as possible.

If that's really the case, then it's related to Zuo Chi, because Zuo Chi also needs to help Sejuani fulfill her wish!

Their eyes met, and Zuo Chi asked with a smile, "Shall we go take a look?"

“Hmm,” Aisha nodded, “Just to be on the safe side, let’s go check it out.”

"If what the intelligence says is true, and Sejuani has indeed deployed all her mammoth hunters, berserkers, and blood warriors, then the southern part of the Avarosan tribe will be in great danger. Under Sejuani's leadership, this force could easily destroy many tribes."

Zuo Chi extended his hand to Ai Xi: "Shall we go together?"

"I need to get dressed first!"

Aisha stomped her foot, pushed Zuo Chi by the back and shoved him to the door, then transformed into a streak of white light and darted back to the bed.

After waiting at the door for a while, the door creaked open, and Aisha, who had changed back into her old outfit suitable for hunting and fighting, appeared in front of Zuo Chi.

After giving instructions to Sigra and the others, Zuo Chi put his arm around Aisha's waist and, under the watchful eyes of the tribe members, soared into the sky.

The message came in the morning, and now it's almost afternoon, so Zuo Chi and Ai Xi need to speed things up.

On the other side, southeast of Freljord.

"Roar!"

The roar of the Juvask wild boar was deep and deafening. Led by two Juvask wild boars, a large herd cut through the dense snow, leaving a long black line across the snowfield.

At this moment, Sejuani, the Warmother of Winter's Claw, and Fryna, the Scarred Mother, personally led all the tribe members out of the snowfields where they used to hunt, heading south.

Behind Sejuani, Olaf, wielding two axes, was discussing something with the middle-aged man beside him.

"Lord Udyr, is that Ionia really as magical as you say? Are there many powerful people there?"

Beside Olaf stood a figure wearing a dark gray animal skin coat, a gray wolf skin hat, and a full beard. He was Udyr, the Beast Walker who had just returned from training in Ionia!

In the cruel land of Freljord, there exists a group of people born with a unique connection to mental magic. They can communicate with the spirit beasts within them, thereby transforming into various animal forms and gaining immense power.

These people were then known as "Beast Spirit Walkers".

Typically, a Beast Spirit Walker has only one Beast Spirit within him, and he can only communicate with that one Beast Spirit and transform into its form.

But Udyr is different.

From a very young age, Udyr discovered that countless beast spirits existed within him!

Every day, countless voices echoed in Udir's mind, and the chaotic thoughts of too many other beings filled his brain, almost driving him to madness.

In order to stabilize his mind and successfully control these strange powers, Udyr chose to travel to the Land of the Firstborn to find a solution to the problem.

There, he met a monk who possessed the spirit of a divine dragon—Li Qing!

Along with Lee Sin, Udyr trained at the Hilana Monastery, learning how to communicate with and control the complex and violent power within him, and how to keep his mind unharmed under the influence of the beast spirits.

Finally, some time ago, Udyr, having completed his training, returned to Winter's Claw and became Sejuani's power.

After mastering all the beast spirits within him, Udyr's power far surpasses that of ordinary Iceborn. With him around, Sejuani has more confidence in whatever she does.

Udyr nodded calmly as he listened to Olaf's words.

"That's a magical land. If possible, I'd like to visit it in the future."

Udyr's words made Olaf extremely excited, and he swung his double-bladed axes rapidly.

Udyr, meanwhile, watched Sejuani's retreating figure, his eyes filled with emotion.

Once, Udyr was wiped out and had nowhere to go, but Winter's Claw took him in.

Now that he possesses immense power, he will naturally spare no effort to protect everything related to the Claws of Winter.

He will help Sejuani accomplish anything she wants and protect her from harm!

Heading southeast, Sejuani's pace gradually slowed after passing through several arches made of dark rock.

These black stone arches are a unique symbol of Noxus. Whenever their army conquers a place, Noxian war stonemasons would quickly build these black market arches on the conquered land to announce the ownership of the place to the outside world.

Slowly raising her head to look ahead, Sejuani's gaze pierced through the snow curtain, revealing the enormous shadow hidden behind the wind and snow.

Sejuani knew that it was a steel city, the junction of Noxus and Freljord, and the purpose of their trip!

Unlike Winter's Claw, located in the far north, Noxus, situated in the heart of Valoran, has far more land to plunder. They possess an inexhaustible supply of strategic resources and countless steels to forge swords and armor.

If Winter's Claw can breach this city, she will obtain a massive amount of supplies, which will allow her to survive the winter.

However, Noxus did not build its city here without any considerations.

Because right in front of this city, a vast river, shrouded in icy mist, stretches for thousands of miles, blocking the path of Winter's Claw.

For the cities of Noxus, this great river is like a natural barrier, which can greatly reduce the pressure faced by the cities.

But for the Claws of Winter, this great river is nothing short of an insurmountable barrier!

"spread!"

On Steelmane's back, Sejuani raised the True Ice Flail high in her hand. The warriors who had been marching in a line behind her scattered and formed several small teams behind Sejuani.

Ahead, the surging river water kept crashing against the riverbank, and amidst the splashing water, figures seemed to begin to move on the distant city walls.

As Noxian soldiers, every soldier in the city was a well-trained warrior, and the scouts spotted them almost the instant Winter's Claw appeared.

At this moment, they drew their swords and nocked their longbows, eyeing the Claws of Winter across the river with predatory intent.
