Geno and the other two came to the edge of the soul well. When they saw the true face of the well, the three of them couldn't help but take a breath.

The shaft in front of me penetrated deeply into the bedrock underground in Noxus, with a depth far exceeding the size of the fortress itself. It seemed that the three huge monoliths above the head seemed to be digging deep from this well.

The cold blue and suspicious green blended into a rolling miasma in the well, spinning far below, reflecting the three bridges spanning above the gorge.

Below the bridge, a huge, terrifying human-shaped black shadow hung in the air, and no one in Noxus could admit his mistake. A lifeless armor would inevitably be mentioned in every history book. There were thousands of statues of it in the old city, all of which were smashed off their faces.

The iron armored soul of Mordecais, but there is only iron armor in front of Geno, and the soul of the underworld has not returned yet. The connection between Mordecais' armor and soul has been cut off and sealed here.

"What did you bring us here for?" Riven murmured to herself, her voice trembling constantly.

"As you can see, this huge well connects the underworld of Maudkesar. As long as I unseal and open this well, the immortal undead legion will massacre all the people in the city in an instant. What's terrible is that these dead will be assimilated into a member of the undead army in the underworld. In the end, the undead legion will only grow stronger and stronger, bringing catastrophes to the entire empire and even the entire world."

As Jeno tells, Riven seems to see blood blowing from the wounds of the empire.

"It sounds like you are trying to create a Soul Erosion Night in the Immortal Fortress." The few words are not enough to describe the horror of Mordecaesar, so Shiville compared it with the phenomenon he knew and came to this conclusion.

"This is much more terrifying than Soul Erosion Night, because the undead killed by you will immediately return to the underworld and will crawl out of the well in the next moment. In theory, the undead army will not be defeated this time. They will launch endless attacks on the living, like an unsolved cycle until this world becomes another underworld."

The birthplace of Soul Erosion Night is Shadow Island, but it is far away from the world and lasts only for one night, so the threat to the world of the living is not too great. But Mordecais's invasion of the world of the living is different. His starting point is in the immortal fortress with the explosion of population, and he comes without any defense, and does not have enough time for people to escape like Soul Erosion Night.

Just like the Resident Evil triggered in Raccoon City, even if humans do their best to stop it, it will inevitably spread to the whole world.

"Is the underworld you are talking about the world where people go after death? If it has been occupied by Mordecaisar, it would be terrible." Shiver vaguely realized the seriousness of the matter. If what she said was true, then wasn't Mordecaisar the only real god-like existence in the world after death?

"No, it was just a post-death transfer station for souls who had the same dark faith as Mordecaesar, but those dead souls who died under his tyrannical rule were enough to deal a devastating blow to the empire."

Geno's explanation gave Shiville a little relief. If this well connects the afterlife, they will face the deceased that has been in the thousands of years.

Fortunately, the underworld is just an unpopular space in countless after-death worlds, but this threat cannot be underestimated.

Where the soul will go after death is related to the beliefs during his lifetime. Different beliefs will determine that the soul will go to different transit stations, but in the end they will disappear with different paths.

In fact, from the perspective of energy flow, after death, life in the material world will dissipate to fill the deficit of the spiritual world and maintain the balance between the two worlds.

But Mordecais’s behavior is tantamount to cutting off this cycle and putting the energy stripped out of the spiritual world into the material realm, causing the balance to tilt.

Once the balance between matter and spirit is unbalanced, the barriers of the two worlds will become weak, and the underworld's penetration of the living world will become easier.

It is precisely because of Mordecais's massive killing and soul-hiding robbery during his lifetime that the spiritual world cannot be replenished, and the corresponding vast land of Noxus lost its spiritual energy and became barren.

These spiritual auras were transformed and blackened by Mordecaisar and robbed him of his underworld, making the underworld full of dark energy and began to penetrate outward through the connection points of the two worlds.

This is also the reason why the land in the capital is barren, but the dark energy of the immortal fortress in the center is so abundant.

The dark energy here was not so strong at the beginning. Under the thousand-year infiltration of Mordecaisar, the dark energy has now overflowed from the immortal fortress, and it will spread to the entire city in another hundred years.

This power will affect people's minds. Ou Chenyu subtly influences people in places that cannot be seen, and those with weak will unknowingly become puppets of tyrants.

Even if Lefran tried his best to stop it, one day, the dark energy that permeated the city center would eventually control the weak-willed chess piece to open the seal and release the tyrant.

Lephlan chose to build a city in the Immortal Fortress to personally guard the seal and prevent Mordecais from returning to the world, but unexpectedly, a time bomb was buried under his nose, which became the biggest disaster for the empire.

This is the shadow shrouded over the immortal fortress, and this is just one of the actions Maudkes did to return to the world. Before being sealed, he actually left many backs in the material world, and one of them was controlled by Geno.

...

Geno's terrible guess was already vividly revealed, which made Riven begin to doubt him.

Is he really trying to lift the seal just to get the Noxus soldiers out of Ionia, rather than being driven by the Iron Armored Soul, to bring destruction to all living beings?

Could he have been controlled and his behavior deviated from the initial goal?

Once this terrible idea came into being, it took root and sprouted uncontrollably. She even had the idea of ​​pushing Geno into a huge well to drown it so as to protect the world.

But before that, she finally questioned Geno:

"You want to create a tyrant to check and balance Noxus, but aren't you afraid that it will be difficult to collect the water in the end?"

Riven looked at Jeno and pressed her step by step. The depths of her eyes had turned into a dark vortex, which was a manifestation of the erosion of the mind by dark energy.
