LOL: Let me touch your steel

Sarah covered her mouth lightly, trying to suppress her inner discomfort and asked:

"What the hell is this?"

She asked the question that everyone present was thinking. They had never heard of such a hideous and terrifying monster before. Even Ryze, who had lived for thousands of years and traveled extensively in Runeland, showed a puzzled look.

Ryze couldn't help but look at Zhang Xu, hoping to get an answer from him.

Although he didn't know why, Ryze was certain that Zhang Xu might know more than he thought.

Under the gaze of everyone, Zhang Xu frowned and said slowly:

"It's the Spider God... Mean Maw!"

Chapter 202: Despicable Throat

"Spider God, Vile Maw?"

After hearing this name, Ryze also frowned. This name, without a doubt, it is also a god.

It was the first time that Ryze felt such an evil aura and power from a demigod.

“Well... I don’t know much about the Maw of the Vile. But what is certain is that it should not be a newborn god of Runeterra like Naga Kaboros, Ornn, and Volibear.”

Zhang Xu analyzed the Spider God's strength based on his limited knowledge of it and his judgment of its energy.

"Among the demigods, the Vile Maw should be one of the weaker ones. But... I sense a sense of decay from it."

"Aura of ruin? Curse of ruin?"

Ryze raised his eyebrows in doubt. "The Curse of Ruin can actually affect demigods?"

Look, look, this is why you are so ignorant, right?

The status of Ruined King is not weak at all, it depends on what you compare it with. If you compare Ruined King with the power of Nothingness and Dragon King, then Ruined King is indeed far inferior. But if you compare it with other powers, Ruined King is still very terrifying.

At the very least, ruin can affect almost any existence indiscriminately.

Maokai, the nature spirit who almost created the Blessed Isles, was nearly killed by the Ruin. The life-giving waters of the Blessed Isles were infused into his core, saving him from undeath. But even so, Maokai was transformed into a vengeful force full of rage by the Ruin.

Karma, the guardian god of Ionia. Although there is no clear evidence, it is conservatively estimated that Karma is also a demigod. Even such a being can still be bewitched by the Ruined King.

The most terrifying thing is that the power of destruction can even affect the Protoss.

If it weren't for the nothingness that isolated the devastation that permeated the island, at least two people in their team would have been affected by the devastation and turned into puppet-like beings.

......

"Iris, this time the sacrifice is much less than last time."

The gigantic spider opened its mouth, and its voice sounded a little hoarse, as if there was a mouthful of thick phlegm stuck in its mouth, and the drawn-out sound cavity caused intense discomfort.

But after hearing the voice of the Despicable Throat, Iris showed some panic.

Although she was bitten by the spider in front of her and received a dangerous gift, mastering a way to safely travel between Noxus and the Shadow Isles, and was appreciated by the Pale Lady, Elise knew in her heart that the spider in front of her was the one that truly controlled her life.

Iris knew very well that all the intrigues she had used in the family were useless in front of it, and only sincerity was the only thing that mattered.

"Dear Spider God, I failed in my duty this time. Next time, I will offer you more delicious sacrifices. I, your faithful believer, will serve you forever."

The Despicable Throat was silent for a moment, and there seemed to be more emotions revealed in his many eyes, but Iris could not understand these emotions, nor did she want to understand them.

She only hopes to obtain an ageless appearance and a long life through the Despicable Throat, so it is enough to just satisfy its needs. As for what it is thinking in its heart...

Perhaps the Pale Lady would be more interested.

After a moment of silence, Vile Throat spoke again:

"The number of offerings is wrong, so this time, you can't take anything from here. Also, you don't have to come here again for the next few days."

"for..."

Iris turned back into her charming human form. After hearing the words of the Despicable Throat, she subconsciously wanted to ask a question, but she restrained herself after the first word.

But her heart was still full of confusion.

Spider God, what does this mean?

Also, there is no way to take anything away from here...how can this be possible?

Elise thought of the deal she had made with the Pale Lady, in which the Black Rose would provide her with a steady supply of foolish sacrifices to feed the Vicious Maw, but in exchange, she would bring back any object of power from that dark, forbidden shore.

In Elise's heart, the one thing she revered the most was the Spider God, the Despicable Maw. But if she was to say who she revered the most, it must be the Pale Lady.

Besides, Elise didn't want to disappoint the Pale Lady.

The Despicable Throat looked Iris up and down with his many eyes, but he had no intention of answering her questions.

The reason why it asked Elise not to go to the Shadow Isles for the next period of time was very simple. It felt the surge of black fog on the Shadow Isles, and could also feel the increasingly intense atmosphere of desolation.

If nothing unexpected happens, Shadow Island will be in a turbulent situation for some time to come, and this kind of turbulence makes it quite wary.

Although the Ruin would not spread here through the Twisted Jungle and would not affect it, if it really happened as it thought, Iris would most likely die if she rashly broke in.

The Despicable Throat vaguely remembered that it seemed to have bitten many people. The venom attached to it was enough to kill them on the spot. Even if they were lucky enough to get medical treatment, in the end, the poison would spread and no medicine could cure them.

But Elise is an exception.

After so much time, only Iris survived her poison and gained the form of a spider. Moreover, Iris was very sensible and would bring her a lot of sacrifices every time, just to exchange for some useless gadgets.

It was very satisfied with Iris's service.

But when it comes to the Black Mist on the Shadow Isles and the guy it fears so much, the Vicious Throat is destined not to say this to her.

"Leave, wait until everything is settled, then come back here with your offerings."

The Spider God seemed to have no interest in continuing the conversation. His huge body displayed unusual flexibility and shrank back into the depths of the cave in an instant.

The densely packed little spiders also gradually retreated like the ebb tide as it moved. They lay dormant again, waiting for the next call from the Spider God.

Soon, Iris was the only one left standing in the cave.

In the dim cave, Iris looked particularly lonely.

Iris's expression flickered, as if she was thinking about something.

After a moment, she exhaled heavily, glanced behind her, and the charming voice that was enough to make one's bones numb rang out again:

"You... have followed me all the way, and you're not going to show up?"

Chapter 203 Excuse Me

Hearing Iris's voice, Zhang Xu frowned, but he had no intention of hiding it and simply walked out of the shadows.

He was very curious. Even the Spider God, Vicious Throat, did not notice their arrival, so why could Iris detect their existence and be so sure of it?

After seeing six people coming out at once, Iris's expression froze slightly, but soon returned to normal, and a beautiful smile bloomed on her face again.

As if she could see the doubt in Zhang Xu's heart, Iris smiled and said, "I am very sensitive to men's aura, so I had already discovered you when you caught up with me."

Iris's gaze paused at Zhang Xu and Ruiz, and then she said:

"I have answered a question for you, so can you also answer a question for me?"

The smile on her face seemed to be even brighter, and her whole body exuded a unique charm that bewitched people all the time.

But neither Zhang Xu nor Ryze could be charmed by her.

As someone who received aristocratic education since childhood, Iris indeed exudes an elegant and attractive temperament. Coupled with her charming face, it is indeed difficult for ordinary men to resist this temptation.

but...

Zhang Xu had just witnessed the entire process of Iris turning into a spider, so it was impossible for him to be confused by the performance Iris was showing now.

Beneath this delicate skin lies a hideous and deadly soul.

As for Ryze...

A thousand-year-old bachelor who is dedicated to collecting runes to protect Runeland, do you expect him to have any bad intentions towards a woman with outstanding appearance?

Seeing that Zhang Xu didn't react at all, Iris shrank her eyes slightly, but she was not discouraged and continued to talk to herself:

"I think you are not native residents of Shadow Island, right? I haven't seen you for a long time. You, like me, come from the outside world."

Although it was speculation, Iris's tone was particularly firm:

"If I'm not mistaken, you should be from Bilgewater... or rather, you came here from Bilgewater."

"what do you want to say?"

"I just want to discuss a cooperation with you."

Iris smiled, pursed her beautiful red lips gently, and blinked twice at Zhang Xu, as if she was telling some obscure hints. Her every move was full of the charm of a mature woman.

She did not immediately say what she wanted to cooperate with. As a lady who once mingled in the Noxian aristocratic circle, Iris was well versed in the skills of negotiation and cooperation.

First of all, you need to arouse the other person’s curiosity.

Only when curiosity arises will there be a need to continue the conversation.

Iris had beautiful thoughts, but the reality was not as she expected.

Although she had tried her best to show her charm and try to arouse Zhang Xu's interest, Zhang Xu still had no interest in the cooperation that Iris mentioned.

Compared to Iris, Zhang Xu was more interested in the big spider in the cave.

There are indeed many demigods in Runeland, but they are rare. After coming to this world for such a long time, apart from the heroes in the game, the only demigod-level existence Zhang Xu encountered was Naga Kaboros.

Now add the vile throat.

I finally met a demigod, why shouldn't I get close to him and give him a good fight?

Iris's all-powerful charm failed in front of Zhang Xu. This feeling made her very unhappy, but she still made a final attempt:

"Are you really not going to listen to this cooperation?"

The voice was sexy and magnetic. If it were the three men who were just eaten by the spider, they would have already become Iris's slaves, but Zhang Xu...

Sigma men are never tempted!

"Sorry, I'm not interested. To me, you're not even as good as that giant spider."

Zhang Xu retorted bluntly. Although he didn't hate Elise as much as Hecarim did, he definitely didn't like her at all.

"If you say one more word, I'll kill you!"
