803 Water-Curtain Cave in Flower-Fruit Mountain, Stay Tuned?! (1/2)
After the magic spell was removed, Demon Dragon Gulth instantly changed back into the huge black dragon with a trace of confusion and puzzlement in its golden eyes.
It looked left and right and then abruptly widened its eyes. ”How come the great Gulth is back?!”
”It seems like someone punched me…?
”No. No… how could a human defeat the great Gulth?!”
”No… the great Gulth was once defeated by a human. Who was that human…?” In its dragon form, Gulth scratched its head with its huge claws and mumbled to itself while spitting flames, ”How come I can't remember…?”
Slowly, it got up from the ruined castle and murmured, ”Is it because too many years have passed…? Forget it. The great Gulth has League of Legends World Championship Series to attend, and there's no time to waste on these weak humans… It's not because I, the great Gulth, can't defeat him, but I must attend the competition… Yeah, that's it…”
It instantly flapped its huge wings and flew away.
The dwarf who had been knocked out got up dizzily and looked around the ruined library. ”…”
”Our castle!”
”Damn it! This damn dragon! One day, we'll make you into barbecued dragon meat!” The dwarves stomped their feet angrily.
…
- In the new shop at the East Continent -
At this moment, more and more customers came into the shop.
”You must have sensed it.” The Xiaoyao Ancestral Master said in a low voice, ”If I didn't need teammates to enter the shop's competition, I wouldn't have told you about it.”
Li Wuchen stretched his arms with a deep look in his eyes. ”You're right. The skills that we can practice in the battles here are indeed not as simple as they look.”
”Very interesting.” The grey-robed middle-aged man named Dugu Yi said, ”We can control champions who understand the laws of nature. Even the simplest move or skill contains the use of the laws of nature. It means that when we truly understand them in the real world, we will have gained proficiency with these skills in this mystical realm already.”
”But…” Dugu Yi said, ”The problem remains that we can't find proper champions.”
At this moment, they received a new message. [League of Legends's online update is completed, and new champions and new skins are unlocked. To know more about the new content, enter the Summoner's Lobby and read about it in the Update Channel.]
”Update Channel…?”
At this moment, there were many League of Legends players in the shop, and many of them had received this message.
…
Undoubtedly, the game streamers were the people who were most sensitive to the new messages. As a big streamer in the Canglan City Shop, Mr. Dirk was the first player to open the Update Channel.
In the West Continent, the players were not limited in the shop.
There were many cloud players who watched livestreams from other places.
Since not everyone could make the long journey to Canglan City just to play games, there had been hundreds of thousands of 'cloud players' watching Mr. Dirk's Spiritual Spell Visual Projection.
[TL Note: Cloud players or cloud gamers in China refer to those only watch livestreams of games and various other content without purchasing hardware or software to play themselves.]
After the battle with the Shadow Legion, the number grew to almost one million.
The cloud players of 'Dark Sword' had grown to about one million as well, but today's livestream wasn't about the 'Dark Sword'.
In the Canglan City Shop, a dog-headed man sitting in a corner opened the Update Channel.
”Which one should I watch…” Instantly, he saw a group of new champions and new skins with introduction videos.
As a streamer who usually played the dog-headed champion in the game, he soon turned his gaze to the champion standing in a vast yellow desert and wearing golden armor.
Above the figure were the words about this video, [Shurima: Rise of the Ascended.]
”We'll watch this first.”
Previously in League of Legends, players had seen several ascendants who were the Magus Ascendant Xerath, the Curator of the Sands Nasus, and the Butcher of the Sands Renekton.
Of course, 'ascendant' was a translated word and was not the same as the cultivator's ascendance, but they were somewhat similar.
The ascendants in League of Legends came from an ancient nation - Shurima.
Regretfully, Xerath stole this ascension ritual and took horrifying power from it, turning the whole nation into dust.
Their emperor, the Emperor of the Sands Azir, was also buried under the vast desert.
At this moment, Mr. Dirk was leading a group of people to watch the video.
They watched as the blood of Shurima's descendants seeped deep into the ancient sands underground and freed a deep and ancient magic spell.
