Thirsting for…blood!

“Aatrox!”

A loud shout pulled Aatrox back from his tormented emotions. Looking up at the source of the voice, he suddenly saw a group of figures.

A bunch of guys.

There were two people standing at the head, with two very familiar auras of power…

Aatrox nodded slightly and then paused suddenly, because he found that the people standing behind the two guys also had an aura that made him feel very familiar!

This aura belongs to…the Ascendant!

Chapter 335 I will make Shurima great again!

“You are…”

Aatrox stared at the guy standing in the front, and an inexplicable excitement rose in his heart. Although he knew that his idea might be a little weird, the long-term torture made him unable to help but think so.

“General!”

Another call attracted Aatrox’s attention, and this name was the one he was most familiar with.

Aatrox looked at Naganeka, who was standing one step behind Zhang Xu, with some suspicion, a hint of doubt and hesitation on his face: “Are you… Naganeka?”

“It’s me, General! I finally found you again!”

Naganeka was very excited and seemed very excited.

As if she had noticed the confused look on Aatrox’s face when he looked at Zhang Xu just now, Naganeka opened her mouth to explain something, but after noticing Zhang Xu’s gesture, she wisely closed her mouth.

This kind of surprise should be revealed to the general by the Sun Priest himself, right?

Well, as a subordinate, he must not interfere in other people’s affairs.

“Aatrox, I really didn’t expect you to be like this now.”

Zhang Xu sighed quietly, a bit of loneliness revealed on his face, and his voice became particularly low: “I really didn’t expect that Aatrox, the general who was once full of glory and the leader of the God Army, would fall to this state now.”

“Aatrox, my great general, you have suffered!”

“you…”

Aatrox subconsciously took two steps back, his expression seemed to be moved: “Who are you?”

Even Aatrox himself didn’t notice that his words seemed to have a slight tremor, and a faint expectation arose in his heart.

Seeing Zhang Xu getting better and better, Kaisa and Sarah looked at each other, pulled Janna and others beside them to the side. Even Riven, who had just joined the team not long ago and didn’t know Zhang Xu very well, followed their actions and retreated.

Only Kled was left standing there in a daze, staring at the scene with wide eyes.

Zhang Xu sighed heavily, his arms shaking uncontrollably, and took out two things from his arms – the emblem symbolizing the identity of the Sun Priest, and the seal of the general that could mobilize all the god warriors.

“This is…”

Aatrox’s pupils suddenly shrank, and even Anaca and others standing behind Aatrox widened their eyes in shock.

The general’s seal!

In the thousands of years of Shurima’s history, there is only this one General’s Order!

And in thousands of years, the only person who has received the order of Grand General and this honor is Aatrox!

This is the only thing that carries all the glory and status of Aatrox!

How did it end up in his hands?

Aatrox’s sight shifted slightly, and he finally saw the other object in Zhang Xu’s hand.

Sun Priest…

“Are you a Sun Priest!?”

Aatrox couldn’t help but exclaim.

“General Aatrox, the Shurima Empire has now reappeared in the world. Your Majesty Azir, the Wise Nasus, General Renekton, and I are doing our utmost to restore Shurima to its former glory.”

“His Majesty Azir has not forgotten the great contributions you Darkin have made to the Empire, so he sent me to leave Shurima and go to various parts of Runeterra to look for traces of the Darkin.”

“So far, I have found Ibalos, Balkux, Varus, Nayafil, Laast, and Naganeka.”

“Except for Balkux who could not return to Shurima for some reason, the rest of the Darkin accepted my invitation and returned to the place that once gave them so much glory.”

“And now, I have found you, General Aatrox.”

“I know that you will never forget the glory of being an ascender, and you will never forget how respected and loved you were. You are the great general of the empire, and the backbone of Shurima!”

As he spoke, Zhang Xu sighed deeply, holding the general seal that represented the glory of Aatrox’s life, and slowly walked in front of him.

Zhang Xu raised his head, looked at Aatrox’s ferocious face, and said solemnly: “His Majesty Azir told me before he left that I must hand this to you personally.”

Aatrox opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but no sound came out.

He took the golden seal in silence, rubbing it with his rough fingers, feeling a myriad of emotions in his heart.

Shurima has been restored, and its former glory is now in his hands.

“General Aatrox, come back, come back to Shurima with me. Accept the ascension ceremony again, reforge your ascended body, become the great general of Shurima again, and let the glory of Shurima shine on the earth again!”

“Not only me, Your Majesty Azir, Nasus… Varus, everyone is looking forward to your return.”

“Hahahahahaha!”

Aatrox laughed uncontrollably. Thousands of years had passed, and he had never felt so happy as he did today!

The laughter was sharp, piercing, and a little hysterical.

But Zhang Xu’s expression did not waver at all. He knew that this was Aatrox venting the negative emotions in his heart.

He understands.

It was definitely not a pleasant feeling to be imprisoned for thousands of years and finally escape, only to suddenly find that one’s body could never be restored to its original state. More importantly, in Aatrox’s own opinion, even if he escaped from the seal, he would only be transferred to a larger prison.

Aatrox has endured this kind of pain for thousands of years.

Now that I suddenly see the light, it is normal to have emotional fluctuations.

……

Soon, the laughter gradually died down.

Aatrox’s expression gradually returned to normal, his slightly ferocious face stiffened slightly, and he suddenly became serious.

He took a step forward, slightly bent his proud body, and half-knelt on the ground, half-kneeling in front of Zhang Xu, and at the same time half-kneeling under the sun that always rose in his heart.

“I am Aatrox! I am… a Shuriman God! I am… the Ascended!”

“Sun, I! Aatrox!”

“I will make Shurima great again! I swear in the name of the sun that the glory of Shurima will be eternal and immortal, and will always stand on the earth!”

Aatrox half-knelt on the ground, holding the bloody giant sword in both hands, with his head slightly raised.

From this angle, Zhang Xu could clearly see the piety in Aatrox’s eyes.

Zhang Xu was not surprised at all.

Almost all Darkin have an inseparable bond with Shurima. As the leader of the Darkin, Aatrox, who once controlled the army of the gods, will only be more loyal to Shurima, never less.

Chapter 336 No One Can Scold Us

Aatrox half-knelt down, and the three Darkin behind him did the same without any hesitation. They half-knelt on the ground and swore solemnly like Aatrox.

Return to Shurima, regain your former glory, and take back your own ascended body…

This is something they dare not even think about.

Now it has become a reality.

Until now, Anaika and the others were a little bit unbelievable. This feeling was like being in a huge bubble. But even if it was a dream bubble, they would never wake up.

This is the sense of belonging and identity that Shurima brings them!

Looking at the row of people kneeling down in front of him, Zhang Xu couldn’t help but curl up the corners of his mouth slightly, forming a satisfied arc.

That’s it…so cool!

If you count Aatrox and the others in front of him, he has brought back a total of ten Darkin from various corners of Runeterra, ten god-warriors with high-end combat power.

Add to that the talented talents that he had brought back from various places, such as Yasuo, Sett, Kayn, Sheng and so on, if you add them all together, there are now nearly thirty god-warriors in Shurima!

Although the nearly thirty god-warriors are still far inferior to the heyday of Shurima led by Empress Wu, if placed in the current Rune Continent, they are already a powerful force that is enough to sweep away everything!

Except for the Freljord, where there are a lot of demigods, and the mysterious Mount Targon, there is no place that can stop the Shurima cavalry.

Of course, there may not be anywhere worth Shurima’s military deployment now.

Under his lobbying, neighboring Ixtal became a solid ally again, the neighboring Piltover and Zaun almost became transit stations for Shurima’s foreign trade, Bilgewater Bay became Shurima’s back garden, and even the distant Ionia and the inaccessible City of Bandle have now become Shurima’s allies.

He did all of these things personally!

This is the charm of cultivation games!

Zhang Xu felt that as long as he didn’t shit on Azir’s head, no matter what he did, he would just smile and praise him for doing a good job.

Zhang Xu shook his head, interrupting his own thoughts, and his gaze naturally fell on Aatrox.

After seeing Aatrox pledge allegiance to him, Zhang Xu always felt that this guy’s ferocious face became much more pleasing to the eye.

At this moment, he could not hide his excitement, his eyes were full of desire, and he wished he could go back to Shurima to undergo the ascension ceremony in the next second.

Looking at everything happening in front of him, Kled took two steps back and finally came to his senses.

So, Naganeka is going back to Shurima with Zhang Xu?

So what’s the purpose of me coming here with you guys?

If you just leave like this, then I came here for nothing! ?

“Hey! You’re leaving just like that? Just leaving like that? I thought you would follow me back after you finished your work! You damned guy! You despicable thing! Why didn’t you tell me earlier!”

Kelie had already suffered a lot at the hands of Zhang Xu, so naturally he didn’t dare to direct his anger at Zhang Xu again.

But fortunately, there is still a target for him to vent his anger – Naganeka, who has been his friend for thousands of years.
