Watching Elise leave, and seeing her turn into a big spider and disappear into the distance, Yasuo finally couldn't suppress the smile on his lips and burst into laughter.

The others were confused, neither understanding what Yasuo and Elise said, nor what Yasuo was laughing at. Only Riven and Ryze seemed to have a guess, but they couldn't confirm it for the moment.

Fortunately, Yasuo didn't stop laughing. After laughing enough, he finally let out a breath and happily took out the suona.

The song "Good Luck" made Maokai appear in front of everyone again.

"Where is your forest garden?" After putting away the suona, Yasuo looked very interested, "Let me see what saplings you have nurtured -"

"Where's that big spider?" Looking at the mess on the ground, Maokai lifted everyone up to his body and asked, "He is very cautious..."

"He should be finished." Yasuo grinned, "But it's not my fault - during the battle, he left when he saw that the situation was not going well, but ended up falling halfway. His followers,

The spider who left just now wants to change his family."

When Maokai heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. The Twisted Dryad felt a little complicated for a while, and finally couldn't help but sigh.

"He still didn't get over it."

"Didn't make it through?" Yasuo scratched his head strangely, "What do you mean?"

"Literally." Maokai's voice was a little low, "He used to be my partner, but when the mist turned into black mist, the god who maintained nature became a greedy and vicious evil god... The Despicable Throat

It was also a title that came into existence after that.”

"..."

Yasuo silently - like Senna, he originally thought that the Maw of Despicableness was the "experimental product" of the Blessed Island, but he never expected that the big spider with a hideous face and a villain no matter how he looked at it, actually used to be the official Eight Classics

Guardian of nature!

"He is different from me." The vines on Maokai's body hang down low, swaying with his footsteps, "If you lose your faith in natural creatures, you have to face the erosion of the black mist all day long. Although the godhead is still there, it is still there.

He has long since turned from a guardian to a fallen one... In the beginning, he would only prey on the alien undead that brought ruin."

"..."

"Then, probably more than three hundred years later, He slowly began to prey on all the undead - including the former forest ranger of Fuguang Island. I had hoped that he could survive until the day when Fuguang Island was restored."

Everyone was silent - although no one except Yasuo, Ryze and Senna could fully understand Maokai's words, this kind of substantive sadness still infected everyone.

"That time, we almost took action." Maokai continued his story without stopping, "But on this terrible island, we didn't have the strength to take action... Every battle is a waste."

"..."

"Then, a group of foreign lost people appeared on the island." Maokai's tone was a bit sad, "He didn't prey on those people. I thought he had changed for the better, and he was happy for a while.

time."

"What a pity, is that the bait He left behind?"

"That's right, that's just his bait, his believer." Maokai was extremely sad, "I have seen some people believe in him. At that time, people would carve spider-shaped amulets and make spider statues to pray that the crops would not grow.

Suffering from pests and diseases - especially in that part of the North Bay."

Talking about the past of Blessed Light Island, Maokai stretched out a thick branch and pointed to the north.

"That's where you came from." The Twisted Tree Spirit added, "It was once the most fertile place on Blessed Light Island, but it was not very suitable for my children to take root... After the arrival of humans, many weak trees were planted there.

Little seedling."

"..."

"At that time, He and His descendants will protect humans and help them protect those little seedlings from pests. If you can dispel the black fog and find the former great library, you will definitely be able to see many books about Him. People

He wrote a lot of interesting things, and would go to the spider lair to read them on harvest day... He always told me that he disliked these people very much, but he was very happy every harvest day."

"..."

"It's a pity that He still couldn't survive." Maokai finally collected his emotions - after experiencing the degradation and departure of too many former friends, he had gradually become numb. "I think when He left, he must have

Are you injured?"

"...Yes." Yasuo nodded, "I'm sorry..."

"You don't need to be sorry." Maokai's tone completely calmed down, "I also know that he is no longer the same person he used to be. After all, there are no more mischievous little guys on the entire island. He can survive until today.

, He has tried his best.”

"If I knew all this, I might have a chance." Yasuo felt really sorry, "I thought he..."

"You think he is an evil god who devours life, right?" Maokai seemed to have seen through everything, "That's right. Now he has become what you thought he was. He can persevere on this dead island.

Yes, how many are there?"

Having said this, Maokai finally stopped talking.

The surrounding area also became quiet.

Between heaven and earth, there seemed to be only a few faint lights left in the hands of outsiders, Lucian's brush strokes recording the path, and the sound of tree roots pressing on the ground.

……………………

After half a day, the twisted tree spirit finally stopped.

The destination of this trip has arrived.

Lowering his body, Maokai sent several people back to the ground, then collected his emotions, and then slowly stood up.

A huge leaf grew on Maokai's branch, and then opened suddenly.

As the giant leaves fanned by, the surrounding black fog was dispersed a little - as if he had rehearsed it a thousand times, Maokai turned around, and the cracks in the bark of the tree slightly curved into a pleasant arc.

Behind Maokai, a "forest" completely different from anywhere else appeared in front of everyone.

Although it is still deathly silent here, although it is still filled with black mist, and although it is still scary, the trees here are no longer the long-dead dead wood elsewhere on the island, but real, living saplings!

In this land sandwiched between life and death, Maokai single-handedly created an amazing miracle of life!

Seeing everyone's surprise, Maokai's tone finally became cheerful.
Chapter completed!
