"Ah, the great Son of the Desert, the Gatekeeper of the Empire, the Mobile Library, the Keeper of Knowledge, the Guardian of the Empire, the Guardian of Vakola, the Great Scholar, the Teacher, the Protector of the Empire, the Protector of the Light, the wisest and most knowledgeable of the Celestial Warriors, the Gemini of the Empire, the Chosen of the Gods, the Protector of the Underworld …"
As soon as the priest saw Nasus, he began to recite many titles that Nasus remembered or did not remember in an excited tone, and it had its own reason and pattern. However, to Nasus, a Celestial Warrior who had been in charge of everything for thousands of years, the priest's thoughts when he recited the titles made him want to vomit.
That was why he frowned and glared at the man who didn't have the slightest trace of the Ascended's bloodline, but claimed to be one.
"Stop."
He gave a short order, and when the priest stopped in shock, he said something that frightened the people around him.
"I don't have the time to care about your thoughts, but the titles of the Gods should be placed in front. You can choose not to believe in the Gods, because the Shurima people are a people with infinite possibilities and creativity. However, we can't forget that during our most difficult times, it was the Gods who gave us the power to survive and the possibility of survival. "
Of course, he knew why his personal title was placed in front. It was to remind him that he was an Ascended who swore allegiance to the Ascended's bloodline.
However, this kind of abandonment of the past and disrespect to the development of their culture and history infuriated him.
His staff slammed heavily on the ground, instantly causing a layer of dust to fall from the surrounding buildings. Not only were the guards and nobles wearing inferior armor unable to stand firmly on this high platform, but the sun disk that was hung up by several ropes also began to sway.
He couldn't say that he was standing in the present because most of his power was still locked up with his brother and Zelas. And the day Azir fell. Even though he had begun to adjust after meeting Sivir, he was still used to looking at humans with the standards of the past.
However, even if he showed such power, the Priest Da Ren still did not change his face. He still felt that this was nothing. The huge war behemoth was just like this. His guards could completely deal with a crazy war beast.
Therefore, even though his guards all had expressions of fear and shock on their faces, he still looked as if he had a card up his sleeve. Moreover, Nassus' reprimanding of his manners and not directly saying that he didn't have the bloodline of an ascender was a test to assist him.
"Ah, mighty warrior of the gods. Of course, I wouldn't forget the glory of the Heavenly Gods. However, what I'm going to do today is related to the honor of the Ascended Bloodline. "
His face was fanatical and holy, but Nasus suddenly didn't understand what he was doing. But just as he was puzzled, the priest spoke again.
"Although the Holy Bloodline of the Empire is no longer as prosperous as it used to be, our Holy Bloodline has been passed on without any damage due to our perseverance and bravery in battle."
His words were too comical in Nasus' ears, so he didn't know what to say for a moment. However, when faced with this person who openly tainted the Ascended Bloodline in front of him, he clawed at the linen wrapped around his axe.
But the Priest Da Ren didn't notice at all.
"However, there will always be thieves who admire the Holy Bloodline of my family and want to steal this honor. There are too many of them. As a result, in the city ruled by me, the son of the Eagle King, the only legitimate successor of the Ascended Bloodline, there are also such thieves and fanatics. "
Nasus couldn't help but feel smug. After all, when Nasus appeared, it wasn't a good thing for someone who claimed to have the Ascended Bloodline to appear. However, he successfully turned a bad thing into a good thing.
"That's why, under the witness of the ancient Heavenly God warrior Nasus and our honorable Grand Scholar, my guard captain will capture the fanatic named Sivir and his accomplices who spread the rumors. We will use their blood to wash away their sins! Their blood will become the blood of the gods … "
He spoke passionately to the officials, nobles, friendly emissaries, and wealthy merchants in his city. He planned to directly confirm the identity of the legitimate successor of the Ascended Bloodline. But before he could finish, the angry Nasus grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up like a chick.
"Who do you want to kill?!"
Nasus tore his robe and straightened his back, revealing his height of more than three meters. Moreover, as if he was walking on grass, he knocked away the guards in front of the priest and directly interrupted the madman's speech. Without waiting for a reply, he dragged the priest who screamed because of his actions to the clumsy replica.
In the original timeline, the young priest had a similar experience when he reached middle age and lost his ambition. But because of Li Ke, he was able to experience this process nearly ten years in advance.
He ignored the attacks of the guards. The weathered golden armor on his body could ignore their weapons. Even if he didn't care, these ordinary people with ordinary martial arts skills and weapons would not be able to break through his skin. Therefore, Nassus pressed the screaming clergy's face fiercely onto the replica disc that was scalding under the sun, making his screams even more shrill.
This was a desert with temperatures above 40 degrees all year round. Moreover, the sun disc was a large copper plate that had been under the sun for an entire morning.
"Even if this sun disc is just a replica without a single bit of gold, even if you're a stupid and useless piece of trash. But as long as it's under the sun, as long as you have the slightest bit of ascended bloodline in your blood, there will be some reaction! "
The sharp claws directly scratched the shaman's face, but his bright red blood only quickly condensed on the sun disk. There wasn't the slightest bit of abnormality, or rather, there wasn't the slightest bit of reaction.
The young shaman seemed to have realized something. He struggled even harder, but Nasus grabbed his head and lifted him up once again. Then, he gave the final verdict.
"But it's a pity that you don't have the ascended bloodline. You even tried to murder a true ascended bloodline."
Nasus looked at the frightened young man, but there was no mercy in his eyes. If he had even the slightest bit of misgivings toward Sivir, or if he had even the slightest awareness of the situation he was in, or if he hadn't been in such a hurry to kill Sivir, then he would've only suffered a little, but his life wouldn't be in danger.
But it was a pity that he chose the wrong path.
Nasus waved his hand and summoned a sandstorm that engulfed half of the city. Not only did the clear sky darken, but the guards who wanted to attack Nasus were also blown up by the sandstorm and fell heavily to the ground.
"So I sentence you …"
Nasus clenched his claws as the priest stared at him in horror.
"Death penalty!"
