Runeterra: I actually know a little bit about everything

The Darkin Greatscythe - Rhaast!

Who says Darkin aren't Ascended?

It could even be said that the Darkin who survived from the first Darkin War to the present day and recently returned to the world by possessing a physical body were all incredibly powerful Ascended beings!

After all, those ascendants without great strength would have died in the Void War long ago.

While Rhaast is somewhat weaker than the top Darkin, he is still more than capable.

Despite having become a Darkborn, Zuo Chi believes that he must still have an unparalleled understanding of the Ascended form.

In conclusion, Zuo Chi plans to go directly to Shadowstream to find Kayn and see if he can get some useful information from Rhaast.

Starting from the southern edge of the Omicaiaran Forest, Zuochi sped eastward toward the continent of Ionia.

Just as Zuo Chi left the Omica Yalan Forest, the blue notification box he had been waiting for reappeared in front of him.

[Host has successfully helped Ahri fulfill her dream! Dream Fulfillment Level: S!]

Please choose one of the following four rewards!

It's here, it's finally here.

From Vary to Presidium, from Presidium to the Order of the Balance, and from the Order of the Balance to Bilgewater.

Zuo Chi has been working tirelessly for far too long to help Ah Li unravel the mystery of her origins.

And now, the reward has finally arrived.

Eagerly looking down, four lines of blue prompts slowly appeared in front of Zuo Chi.

[Charm Spell! Uses powerful mental energy to charm enemies, rendering them defenseless. Increases attractiveness to both the opposite and same sex.]

[The Orb of Deception! By harnessing spiritual power, a soul orb can be condensed and freely controlled by the host. It can attack enemies while simultaneously healing one's own injuries.]

[Mental Peeping! Briefly gains the ability to peer into the mental world and can also see through low-level illusions.]

[High-tier legendary forging material - Cosmic Star Iron! Excess material shed from the cooled core of a planet. Its power is identical to the core, but it can only be used to forge weapons and cannot be used as a seed to nurture a planet.]

"This"

Looking at the four options in front of him, Zuo Chi's expression was somewhat strange.

Without a doubt, the first two must be Ahri's abilities, as they are Ahri's E and Q skills in the game.

The latter two items surprised Zuo Chi more.

The system had previously suggested that if Zuo Chi could help Ah Li fulfill her dream, he could choose one of Ah Li's and Ning Ran's abilities and traits.

Now it seems that the latter two items should come from the demigod Thousand-Tailed Ningran.

Compared to Ahri's two skills, these latter two are obviously much more overpowered!

Mental prying allowed Zuo Chi to briefly glimpse the mental world, an ability possessed only by a few demigods in Ionia.

As for the fourth item, it surprised Zuo Chi even more.

Qianwei Ningran even obtained cosmic star iron!?

Having had a cheat system for so long, this is the first time I've seen an option that isn't an ability or skill, but a real, tangible object!

"Cosmic Star Iron, High-Rank Legendary".

Zuo Chi was a little confused about whether this legendary level was high or low.

However, just as this thought arose in Zuo Chi's mind, a line of blue text appeared in front of him again.

[Dream Fulfillment Level S: Weapon and Material Identification System Opens Ahead of Schedule!]

[Materials and Weapon Ratings: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Epic, Legendary, Mythical]

"Ok?"

This surprised Zuo Chi quite a bit.

The weapon identification system, which was supposed to be activated only to help Maokai fulfill his dream, was activated ahead of schedule?

He touched his body with both hands, then gripped the Ascended Dagger tucked at his waist. His gaze shifted downwards, and the Ascended Dagger's identification information appeared before his eyes.

Ascended Dagger!

Rank: Mid-tier Epic!

Special Note: This fine iron dagger, imbued with the power of ascension, once slew dozens of void creatures during the Void War. Its original owner perished in the Void War.

"!!"

Zuo Chi's heart skipped a beat.

Having used the Ascended Dagger for so long, Zuo Chi still highly approves of its power.

But this weapon, imbued with the power of ascension, is only a mid-tier epic-level weapon?

Just how powerful must this high-level legendary level be?

With his gaze fixed on the four options, Zuo Chi, who had been hesitating about which one to choose, now had an answer in his heart.

Although the third ability, mental prying, is powerful, it is not a necessity for Zuo Chi at the moment, and he has no need to pry into the mental realm.

As for the first item, the bewitching spell...

"Huh~~"

The thought of a grown man like himself using charm on an enemy sent shivers down Zuo Chi's spine.

What grown man has skills that involve charm?

No, that's not right either; it seems there really is.

Finally, Zuo Chi slowly pointed to the fourth option.

The four options turned blue and gradually dissipated, then converged in Zuo Chi's hand. When the light faded, Zuo Chi had a black ore about the size of a human head in his hand.

The cosmic star iron is blackish-purple in color, but it is also as transparent as crystal. Inside the star iron, the endless stars seem to have transformed into an independent galaxy.

The material was extremely heavy; even after his body had received the blessing of the goddess Na, Zuo Chi still felt it was quite heavy when he held it.

Weighing the cosmic iron in his hand, Zuo Chi slowly turned his gaze toward the western part of the Ionia continent.

All you need to do is cross the Sea of ​​Watchers to reach that land that is covered in ice and snow all year round.

And there, there lived a god who controlled fire and forging.

People say that this god is eccentric, dislikes contact with outsiders, and is only devoted to forging.

But Zuo Chi wondered, if he could produce a high-level legendary forging material from outside Runeterra, how would he respond?

Taking off his coat, Zuo Chi wrapped the Rune Star Iron around his back and carried it on his shoulder. Without further hesitation, he quickly flew eastward.

Having already visited Shadow Stream and the Order of Balance, Zuo Chi had no more reservations this time and went all out, heading straight for Shadow Stream.

It took Zuochi about two days to travel from the northwest corner of the Ionia continent to the center of Ionia.

During this time, Zuo Chi also passed by the Order of Balance, but neither Kennen nor Shen were in the order; there were only a few scattered new disciples.

As Zuo Chi ventured deeper into the mountains where the Shadow Stream Cult resided, he suddenly heard the sound of wind breaking through the air.

With his mental strength, which was many times stronger than before, Zuo Chi could sense that many guardians were hidden in the shadows within this mountain forest.

Without hesitation, Zuo Chi stepped into the forest.

Chapter 82 Let's do something big!

"boom!"

A deafening roar echoed through the mountains and forests, and more than a dozen dark figures that had come before Zuo Chi were blasted away by the violent force of ascension.

Standing still and waiting quietly, a dark blue ball of light suddenly appeared in the mountainside on the left side of the pool.

The next instant, the Darkin giant scythe, gleaming with blood-red light, pierced through the mountain and hurtled straight towards Zuo Chi!

"when!"

The Ascended Dagger and the Darkin Greatscythe collided violently, the immense force generating a violent shockwave that caused the surrounding trees to shake violently.

"Zuo Chi, it's you!"

Their eyes met, and Kayn recognized the newcomer's face, his heart skipping a beat.

When Zuo Chi came to Shadowstream last time, Kayn also clashed with him.

However, compared to last time, Kayn could clearly sense that Zuo Chi's power seemed to have increased by an immense amount!

Faced with his full-force attack, Zuo Chi simply stood still, without even swaying.

Zuo Chi sheathed the Ascended Dagger in his hand and smiled gently at Kayn: "Kayn, long time no see."

Kayn retreated, hoisting the Darkin Greatscythe onto his shoulder, his gaze sweeping over Zuo Chi.

"You're getting stronger again!"

Zuo Chi swayed the cosmic iron he was carrying on his shoulder and said with a smile, "Aren't you the same? Your fusion with Rhaast seems to be even higher?"

"Hmm?" Kayn's brow twitched, and his gaze toward Zuo Chi changed slightly.

But before he could speak, Laaste's hoarse voice came through.
