Yasuo showed his strength, but Maokai was not only not happy, but also a little worried - so he startled everyone with his fierce voice.

However, Yasuo, who knew Maokai quite well, knew the history of this ancient tree very well and understood Maokai's concerns quite well.

After all... As the former natural spirit of Blessed Light Island, Maokai and the former "Emperor Willow" of Ionia are almost the same existence.

Similarly, just like the Emperor Willow was cut down by Ivern the Heartless, and its seeds were scattered throughout the physical and spiritual worlds of Ionia, becoming the current Spirit Willow and Dream Tree, Maokai was not able to survive peacefully.

Walk through life.

When the Curse of Destruction came and the Holy Water of Life was contaminated, Maokai, who had been drinking from the spring water, cut off his roots in time, but still suffered from the influence of the Curse of Destruction.

The mist that once shrouded the island has now become a black mist of death, and Maokai has changed from a blessed tree spirit to his current distorted appearance.

All the plants that once accompanied Maokai died in the black mist. Only Maokai is still persisting, fighting the black mist and the undead in the final struggle. On the huge Blessed Island, Maokai has almost no one.

Comrades.

Waving his branches and vines, Maokai can dispel part of the fog and its evil spirits, keeping them away from a forest or bush.

Although there has been no new life in this cursed land for many years, Maokai spared no effort to create a temporary shelter.

Although each refuge does not last long, at least for a while, Maokai can be free from sorrow and decay.

As long as Maokai continues to fight, there is hope - because his core is still soaked with the pure water of life, which is the ultimate hope to restore the islands to their original appearance.

If this land can return to its former lush scene, then Maokai will also lose its distorted appearance. This ancient spirit of nature once brought life to the islands a long time ago, and now... he will bring life to the islands again.

Bloom and fight endlessly.

And it is precisely because of understanding the ruined curse that Maokai is extremely wary of spellcasters. Although Yasuo showed amazing power, he still cheered up immediately, hoping to figure himself out.

The origin of the person in front of you.

Is it for purification or because of greed?

……………………

Looking at Maokai, who was so angry that he seemed to be torturing him, Yasuo put Aashiri back into the scabbard.

"I'm not an abuser of magic." Yasuo waved his hand, "If I have to put it into words... I should be considered a [swordsman who has a good relationship with the Wind Spirit]."

"A swordsman who has a good relationship with the Wind Spirit?" Maokai obviously didn't expect Yasuo's self-introduction to be so unique, "Hmm... wait, I think I understand."

After realizing it, Maokai was stunned for a moment, and finally realized the source of the violent wind just now - it was not a magical method, but the action of the elemental spirit itself.

Although the spirit of life and the spirit of wind are not the same, they are still somewhat related. After thinking about the breeze just now, Maokai finally felt relieved.

Although... these wind spirits seem to be "taken away", but at least Yasuo is not a mage.

Raising his "arm" high, Maokai revealed his few branches and leaves. While feeling the rare breeze blowing through the leaves, the Twisted Dryad generously extended his invitation.

"So, Swordsman." Maokai omitted the awkward title, "Would you like to come and sit in my forest garden? I just packed it-"

"The visit will take a while." Yasuo waved his hand, "Let's get rid of that big spider first."

"...That bug?" Maokai hesitated for a moment, but finally did not say anything to stop him, "Okay, but I won't interfere."

With that said, Maokai took heavy steps, turned around and left the spider lair - as he left, the twisted vines quickly dispersed, while the spiders that were hesitant to move around in the periphery got up.

I gained courage and took steps forward.

Seeing Maokai leave, Lucian was a little anxious - but after so many times, he finally no longer had any doubts about Yasuo's decision.

This time, Lucian could finally see that Yasuo had his own ideas from beginning to end, and now he is more like a tool responsible for leading the way and providing logistics.

Hmm...then why did Yasuo bring him with him?

Lucian subconsciously felt that Yasuo seemed to have another purpose, but for a moment he couldn't grasp the point. And just as he was stunned, the spiders around him had already surrounded him.

On the contrary, Drizzt and Graves had already been clasping their legs and lying down to earn commissions, and they immediately started to get angry with the spider.

Senna and Lucian quickly joined the battle after being stunned for a moment.

The roar of spiders, the roar of shotguns, and the roar of cards intertwined into a symphony of battle.

As the protagonist, Yasuo is silently watching the direction of the spider lair, silently waiting for the arrival of his target...

A moment later, the black mist enveloped again, and along with the black mist, this time Yasuo's target finally appeared on the edge of the spider lair.

The Maw of Despicableness...is here.

……………………

Although he couldn't speak and could only utter a low hiss, when the Maw of Despicableness finally appeared, Yasuo still felt the anger in his compound eyes - obviously, the escape of the team last time angered this primitive god.

The sharp mouthparts were clicking open and closed, and deadly venom was dripping from the mouth of the Despicable Maw.

"Relax, big spider." Yasuo started with the Iai Slash, and began to say something inappropriate again, "I promise, I won't cause you too much pain..."

"Hiss-ha-"

There was a tremor in the abdomen, and the Despicable Throat let out a cry that made goosebumps all over the body. The eight slender and powerful legs worked together, and the huge body rushed in front of Yasuo at an unreasonable speed!

"You really can't speak..." He drew his sword and slashed it mercilessly. After realizing that the Despicable Maw could understand his own Hylian language, Yasuo began to taunt him habitually, "Seriously.

Yes, the Maw of Despicableness is the spider god in legend, a god who cannot speak. Do you think this is funny?"

"Buzz——"

When Yasuo's long sword slashed out, the Maw of Despicableness did not stupidly use his legs to block them. Instead, he raised his belly three steps away from Yasuo without any warning.

Spider silk is originally a viscous silk slurry, which will quickly solidify into spider silk after being sprayed out. However, what the Despicable Throat sprayed out this time was not the continuous spider silk under normal circumstances - when it sprayed out the spider silk, it

The abdomen contracts at a high frequency, causing the silk slurry to spurt out intermittently, forcibly spraying the spider silk into granules.
