151 CHAPTER 151 - Who Can beat the Dog's Infinite Q?

Indeed!

I knew it, when Sivir, and Taliyah, gathered together at Vekaura, trouble ensued...

Oh well, now even the demigods are getting involved.

Li Lin's face couldn't help but change.

He even wanted Nasus to hurry and take Sivir back to the Sun City.

At the very least, Xerath couldn't possibly be bold enough to fight against two god warriors blessed by the Sun Disc, especially under the Sun Disc itself.

It's just a pity that thinking about this now is already too late.

"Why didn't I think about that jerk Xerath earlier..." Li Lin couldn't help muttering.

Nasus, with acute hearing, turned to him. "You know Xerath quite well?"

"We witnessed the revival and ascension of the Emperorin the Sun City. At that time, he used magic to recreate the scene of the empire's destruction."

The light in Nasus's eyes flickered, then he let out a heavy sigh, seeming to recall everything that happened back then.

After a brief pause, he continued, "Considering Azir's temperament, he would certainly have tried to persuade you to stay. Why did you leave the Sun City? And why are you carrying weapons of other god warriors?"

Taliyah had been staring blankly by this time, showing little reaction to Nasus' words.

Ever since she found out that Sivir was of royal blood, the descendant of the Sky King Azir, nothing seemed too absurd or exaggerated anymore.

"I wield the weapon of the great god warrior Horok." Kassadin's voice was heavy. "We are preparing to confront the Void in the Valley of Song."

"The Void?!" Nasus's tone faltered.

"A man known as the 'Prophet' brought the Void back from Icathia, causing it to devour Kassadin's village. We're going to deal with that guy."

Li Lin thought for a moment, then added, "This was agreed upon by the Sky King himself."

The crimson light in Nasus's eyes flickered faster. "How could Azir agree to such a thing? Letting mortals resist the Void, isn't that absurd?"

Before Kassadin could respond, Nasus planted the end of his battle axe on the ground and shook his head slightly as he continued, "Forget it. If you have godly weapons, it shouldn't be a problem for you to kill that 'Prophet' who has acquired the power of the Void... However, she cannot go with you."

"Why?" Sivir saw Nasus's sharp clawed fingers pointing at herself and frowned.

"Xerath wants to sever Azir's bloodline, and you are likely the only one with a pure royal lineage now. I cannot allow Xerath to harm you."

"So... you plan to take me back to the Sun City?"

Nasus nodded. "Only Azir, and the Sun Disc in the capital, can protect you."

Upon hearing this, Sivir couldn't help but chuckle. "And what about you? Aren't you a god warrior too? Logically, if Azir can defeat Xerath, so can you, right?"

Defeat Xerath...

Nasus fell silent for a while, his mind involuntarily recalling the scene of him and his brother Renekton fighting Xerath together thousands of years ago.

The battle atop the ruins of the Sun City, where he and his brother were evenly matched against Xerath.

If it weren't for Renekton forcibly dragging him into the Emperor's Tomb and begging him to seal the door...

Nasus shook his head, his voice like that of an old man on his deathbed, hoarse and low, "Even among god warriors, there are strong and weak... and Xerath, who has stolen the power of ascension, belongs to the top tier."

"Then why do you want to take me back to the Sun City? Isn't that suicidal?"

Taken aback by Sivir's sudden rebuke, Nasus paused for a moment, his mind not quite catching up.

"We are in the eastern part of Dacia, Magister. Since you said Xerath is here, wouldn't it be just right to meet him on the way back to the Sun City?"

Sivir's demeanor was cold, her sudden display of authority making even Li Lin pause.

"This..."

"Do you plan to take us across the 'Sea of Bones,' Sai Kahleek, and then face Xer'Saiand their queen Rek'Sai?"

"Of course, I don't deny that you can kill that huge monster corrupted by the power of the Void, but have you considered that I am still just an ordinary person?

"I reckon you'll have quite a fight with Rek'Sai when the time comes. By then, I'll probably have been devoured by a bunch of his monsters long before that.

"What's more, you're not afraid of those burrowing beasts, and Xerath won't be afraid of them either... I don't need to say more, you should be able to figure it out."

Nasus fell silent.

Sivir's words were reasonable and well-founded, and he couldn't think of how to refute them.

Inside the tavern, silence fell like a heavy blanket.

The few daring patrons who remained, after hearing their conversation, exchanged uneasy glances, fear written plainly on their faces.

A demigod who once betrayed the Sky King was coming, aiming to kill the sole descendant of the royal bloodline.

If this woman didn't leave, the whole of Vekaura would become her grave...

The thought sent shivers down their spines, and they hurriedly rushed out of the tavern, preparing to go home and pack their things to flee.

"Why does Xerath want her dead?" Taliyah, who had been holding back her questions for too long, asked at an inappropriate time.

Seeing everyone's gaze converge on her, her heart skipped a beat, her face visibly reddening as she feared she had spoken out of turn.

Nasus hesitated for a moment.

"The royal bloodline has the power to resurrect Azir and the empire. If used cunningly, it could also bury the empire once again beneath the sands... Ordinary wizards and god warriors couldn't do it, but Xerath definitely can."

Sivir's eyelid twitched, and she instinctively glanced down at the veins on her arm.

She had never realized that the blood flowing through her veins possessed such power.

A hint of panic appeared on Taliyah's face. "What do we do now? We can't just sit and wait for our doom, we have to fight..."

"This is not a battle for mortals."

Nasus glanced at Li Lin and Kassadin.

"Even with such sophisticated armor, with the weapons of god warriors, it's still not enough... The gap between mortals and gods is insurmountable."

But Jax was able to led an elite team to kill an Ascended being...

Although he wasn't exactly human.

Li Lin couldn't help but grumble inwardly, but his mind was also quickly considering various plans.

Firstly, relying on that dog's head Q was definitely not an option.

Xerath wasn't like in the games, just a remote turret for assassins; he could hold his own in melee combat against Nasus and Renekton.

Moreover, in Li Lin's impression, Nasus almost got killed by Xerath when facing him alone in Vekaura.

But the escape plan wasn't very feasible either.

Leaving aside whether Nasus could hold off Xerath, just the group of Sand People following him was an obstacle.

Although those people were no problem compared to Li Lin, Kassadin, and even Sivir, it was still quite easy to delay them for a while.

Li Lin knew that Nasus had a magical amulet that could keep Sivir from being sensed by Xerath.

It's just that there's a huge Sea of Bones to the west, and they could only run north to Kenethet, the Marrowmark in the south, or continue eastward into the tropical jungle of Ixtal...

But these were all theoretical. In practice, it was completely unattainable.

In the midst of Xerath's siege of the Sand People, they were like "turtles in a jar".

No matter where they escaped to, Xerath could easily come and deal with them after resolving Nasus.

In the original timeline, Nasus alone held off Xerath and his followers, while the heavily wounded Sivir escaped with Taliyah's help.

But that was in the battle in Vekaura, paid for with the lives of the vast majority of innocent people.

After much thought, Li Lin's mind suddenly lit up. "Magister, can you contact the Sky King?"

Nasus frowned. "If there's a medium, it's not a problem... But my journey this time was quite hasty, and I haven't had the chance to go to the Imperial City."

"A medium, huh..." Li Lin couldn't help but feel a surge of joy. "Would the Sand Soldiers of the Emperor count?"
