Runeterra: I actually know a little bit about everything

Foygo raised his sword and charged straight at Karma. Karma, seeing Foygo rapidly approaching her, released one hand that was covering her head and gathered the last bit of blue mantra in her hand.

Behind her are countless citizens of Ionia. As the Soul of Ionia and the guardian of Ionia, she must not back down or be infected unless she dies.

The tip of the Blade of Ruin grew larger and larger in Karma's pupils, and Karma was ready to commit suicide.

But it was at this moment that Karma suddenly felt a violent energy fluctuation coming from behind her.

The next instant, a long sword, its entire body a deep purple and exuding a terrifying aura, seemed to pierce through space and time, grazing Karma's cheek and thrusting straight towards Foygo in front of her!

Faced with this sudden turn of events, Foygo quickly withdrew his King's Sword and used the blade to parry the flying longsword.

"Qiang!"

In an instant, the blade of the Broken King curved upwards, and Fawkes' body flew backwards.

After spinning rapidly in the air several times, the longsword was plunged straight into Karma's face.

But that wasn't all. In the next instant, to Karma's incredulous gaze, the dark fortress she had seen before descended from the sky and landed heavily beside her.

Countless dark orbs flew out from the fortress, heading straight for Folyago.

"Sindra!?"

Karma couldn't believe it. She had imagined anyone coming to save her, but she never thought Syndra would come back.

After all, Karma knew better than anyone who had sealed Syndra in the Dream Pool, and who had joined forces with the Starchildren to seal Syndra away a second time.

But all of this actually happened right in front of her.

A figure flew out from above the fortress, raised his hand, and the longsword in front of Karma flew out, straight into the man's hand.

After grasping the Star Iron Longsword, Zuo Chi was enveloped in a dense aura of ascension power, which rushed straight towards Foyego.

If we can kill Fryego here, everything after that will be much easier.

When Foyego saw Zuo Chi suddenly appear, a deep sense of shock appeared in his eyes.

"It's you!"

Back when Fryego was resurrected by Planck, Fryego had already met Zuochi, but the Zuochi of that time was incomparable to the Zuochi of today.

Foygo couldn't imagine what Zuo Chi had gone through to cause such a qualitative leap in his power in such a short time.

However, since they had already come knocking on his door, Fojego naturally had no reason to stand there and take the beating.

Wielding the Broken King's Sword, Foygo launched the first attack, enveloped in black mist.

"boom!"

The golden longsword clashed with the eerie green longsword, and the violent energy fluctuations even annihilated all the surrounding undead.

Meanwhile, on the other side, as Zuochi and Foyego were engaged in a fierce battle, Kalma...

She barely suppressed the sharp pain in her head and looked at Syndra beside her with a puzzled expression.

"Why are you here?"

Syndra glanced at the Ionian Soul who had sealed her away twice, then proudly raised her head.

"I'm just doing this for someone else, I'm not here to help you."

"Entrusted by someone?"

Karma paused for a moment, then looked at Zuo Chi, who was pressing down on Foygo.

"Did he send you?"

“You asked me to come, not summoned me. You need to understand that!” Syndra said indifferently.

"Forehead"

Karma was speechless for a moment.

The atmosphere between the two cooled down again. After a long while, Karma said softly, "Syndra, thank you."

"Humph!"

Syndra snorted coldly and didn't reply.

On the other side, the battle between Zuo Chi and Foyego had completely torn the earth apart, and countless undead died under Zuo Chi's ascension power.

Once again, Zuo Chi swung Foygo away and suddenly raised his left hand. At this moment, several marks on his forehead began to flash with golden light.

Large swaths of thunderstorms were gathering in the sky, and beneath the cracked earth, a blazing red light began to emanate.

Immediately afterwards, thick bolts of lightning descended from the sky, and rolling lava surged onto the earth, sweeping towards Foygo.

This sudden scene stunned everyone present. Whether it was Foygo, Syndra, or Karma, they all stared blankly at Zuo Chi.

However, Foygo quickly reacted, holding the Broken King's Sword horizontally in front of his chest, and billowing black mist swept forward rapidly, with countless undead protecting him from Zuo Chi's attacks.

Foygo looked up at the sky behind him and roared with all his might:

"Vigus!"

"Okay, okay, stop yelling!"

A mournful voice came, followed by a teleportation portal emitting a faint blue light.

The moment the portal appeared, Foygo rushed into it, followed closely by a cloud of black mist.

Foygo had already realized that with Zuo Chi around, he had no chance of destroying Karma today, so he might as well give up early.

Although his IQ drops sharply when facing Ysuld, it doesn't mean he's a fool when facing enemies. After all, before Ysuld died, he was a wise ruler for a period of time.

A good ruler must have the ability to assess the situation and make sound judgments.

Soon after Foygo left, the black mist that had invaded Ionia for the second time also disappeared in front of Zuochi, leaving behind only a desolate land that had been invaded by the black mist.

Gazing at the land ahead, Zuo Chi sighed softly and turned to walk towards Karma's direction.

He knew that everything he had planned had to be implemented immediately, otherwise all his efforts might be in vain.

When they arrived in front of Karma, Karma had already stood up and was standing side by side with Syndra, looking at the left pool.

"Thank you."

Kalma bowed respectfully to Zuo Chi: "If you hadn't arrived in time, I might..."

Zuo Chi waved his hand: "My name is Zuo Chi."

"Zuo Chi."

Karma's eyes flickered: "You're the person Kennen was talking about?"

Zuo Chi raised an eyebrow: "It seems you already recognize me."

Karma nodded. "Kennan has mentioned you to me more than once. Zuo Chi, thank you."

Zuo Chi stopped being polite with Karma and looked directly at Syndra beside her.

"Syndra, let's go, time is running out."

Syndra withdrew the dark orbs surrounding her and flew back to the rock fortress without looking back, seemingly unwilling to stay with Karma any longer.

Karma was slightly taken aback when she heard Zuo Chi's words: "Zuo Chi, what are you going to do? Do you need my help?"

Looking at Karma's current state, Zuo Chi couldn't help but shake his head:

“Your aura is very off right now, so you should stay in Ionia. However, with the help of Master Kennen and Lord Thousand Tail, it should be enough to clear away the black mist.”

"!?"

Upon hearing Zuo Chi's words, Karma's face was filled with utter astonishment.

Whether it's Zuo Chi saying he's going to find the source of the black mist, or Zuo Chi saying he has the help of Kennen and Thousand Tail Ningran, these are enough to shock Karma.

So, among all the demigods in Ionia, I'm the only one who hasn't even had contact with Zuo Chi yet!?

Looking at Zuo Chi's back, Karma quickly raised her arm.

"Wait, Zuo Chi, please let me travel with you!"

In the end, Karma boarded Syndra's floating fortress, and the three of them flew together toward Bilgewater.

Unwittingly, the demigod forces tasked with conquering the Shadow Isles have expanded to an extremely exaggerated extent.

At the same time, the brothers Volibear and Orn had already left the border of Ixtal and were heading towards Bilgewater.

Throughout the journey, Volibear kept whispering sarcastic remarks in Ornn's ear:

"Who's cleaning up whose mess? Is your brain made of stone? Sure enough, getting old makes you forget your brain! When I meet Zuo Chi, I'm going to have a good talk with him about what that person has done all this way."

Ornn: "."

The brothers traveled through several countries on their journey from Freljord to Ixtal. Volibear was quite well-behaved, as he didn't encounter anything of interest along the way.

On the contrary, Ornn could attract the attention of almost every creation in every place, and he caused chaos in the countries and cities along the way.

It was precisely because of this that the honest Ornn chose to swallow his anger when faced with Volibear's sarcastic remarks.

Finally, Volibear's incessant chatter came to an end when the brothers reached the waters off Bilgewater.

On the boundless sea, Volibear's voice abruptly ceased. He stood on the water, his eyes beginning to crackle with restless arcs of electricity, while endless thunderstorms began to gather overhead.

"Ornn, can you feel it?"

Ornn nodded: "The native god is much stronger than that wind spirit from before!"
