Chapter 240: Fuguang Island and Shadow Island

Kar'thus, messenger of annihilation, immortal spirit.
Before seeing him, first hear the ghostly elegy.
...
Looking at the remarks made to Karthus at the top, Sarah's eyes stretched slightly.
Under Ye Feng's gaze, she continued to read the text below.
...
Karthus had lived in the slums at the bottom of the walls of the capital city of Noxus since he was a child, and he was dependent on his father and three sisters.
The dilapidated almshouse was home to several other families with the same background as his, and it was filled with the stench of dead rats and garbage.
He relies on smelly water and pests to fill his stomach all day long, and he is the best foraging among children. He often finds leftovers from the rich for his sisters, but he eats pests and dead mice.
In his sleep, he often heard the cry of people who died of freezing, starvation, or disease in the slums.
He has become accustomed to the deaths of people around him. In the initial fear, to the later numbness, he forced himself to look at the death of others with appreciative eyes.
Finally, his nightmare came. The sisters fell ill one after another, but the father abandoned them. But this didn't break him, he took good care of his sisters.
Although he was very diligent, his sisters eventually passed away under the multiple tribulations of hunger, cold and serious illness because they had no money to hire a doctor.
Distraught, he was so eager to understand death for the first time. He thought naively, if he could understand the true meaning of death, would his sisters survive?
Driven by the desire for death, he joined the Order of the Thousands of Beasts that specializes in collecting corpses in Noxus.
From digging graves and collecting firewood for cremation, to storing the dead bodies. He gradually became a mourner in the cult, singing his own requiem for the dead.
His eulogy was sad and beautiful, full of beautiful illusions about the world after death, and prayed that the world after death would be a sacred place that people yearn for. The grief-stricken relatives of the deceased will also find a trace of solace in his requiem so that they can live strong.
But even so, he still couldn't understand the world after death, and the living couldn't tell him all this.
In order to understand the true meaning of death, Karthus went to Bilgewater, and then entered the black mist of the Night of Eating Soul.
In the black mist, he gradually lost his way and was taken to the eternally lonely island in the northwest corner of the mainland-Shadow Island.
On the coast, he was dying. Before he died, he took a photo of him and his sisters from his arms.
Staring at the photo, he was full of expectations for death. He knew that his sisters had come to pick him up.
Uncontrollably, he sang a requiem with his increasingly faint voice. The Requiem let the pain caused by death dissipate, and under the twisted magic power of Shadow Island, it reshapes him into an undead between life and death.
As everyone knows, the undead on the island were all disturbed by his Requiem, and they came to witness the rebirth of Karthus.
The newly born Karthus intends to bring the beauty in his eyes to the living, so that they can witness the forgotten world after death.
...
Listening to Sarah's words, Ye Feng's eyes lit up: "Sister, he used to be a human!"
"Well, it's time to hammer."
Nodding, Sarah held the torch and came to the next stone tablet.
...
In an age that was dark and remote enough to be forgotten by history, Thresh was once a place of well-being—Fukuguang Island, a member of a cult dedicated to suppressing evil. He guards the evil magic weapons sealed by the cult in the underground prison, which seems to him to be a sacred duty.
His will is as strong as a rock, and his sense of justice and honor drive him.
But after spending a long time in underground prison, his complexion became paler and paler, and other members of the order gradually began to alienate him.
Gradually, his character became weird and withdrawn. He was no longer the guardian who was dedicated to his duties before, but he didn't realize that he was slowly stepping into the abyss.
The dark magic weapons in the prison feed on his loneliness and emptiness, eroding the goodness in his heart little by little.
Under the influence of dark magic, Thresh began to learn to play with those magic weapons that were alive. Whenever he was about to finish a spell that summoned evil spirits and demons, he would stop abruptly, mocking the monsters who wanted to seduce him.
Time passed continuously, and even most members of the cult on the ground had forgotten his existence and this underground prison.
He began to become more and more violent under the invisibility of dark magic weapons, until he captured the first cult member into an underground prison to play.
Under the horrified gaze of the members of the Order, Thresh scraped off the skin and flesh of the members with the hook on the iron chain. After the cult members died, he frantically whipped the corpses of the cult members with only bones.
After trying again and again, he gradually fell in love with this torturous gameplay.
Although he often felt guilty in his heart, he stepped into the abyss step by step.
When the undead magic called the Curse of Immortality by the people on the ground exploded in this peaceful sacred land, the entire island of Fuguang was filled with the breath of death and fear.
Everyone was distorted by this terrible wave of magic power into immortal wraiths and ghosts, Thresh is no exception.
The lantern that accompanied him through the days and nights underground became a tool for his soul, and the chain with an iron hook turned into a weapon for his soul.
Since then, he no longer has to worry about his torturous hobby being discovered.
From this moment on, he finally released the twisted dark side of his heart, torturing the soul imprisoned in the lantern forever.
...
After hearing the story of Thresh, Ye Feng said with palpitations: "If this is caught by him, there will be no escape from death."
Sarah did not speak, but came to Elise's stele.
Looking at the above text, her red lips opened slightly, which was interpreted by everyone.
...
Elise was originally a girl from an ordinary family in Noxus. After a ridiculous bet with a friend, she and a few friends traveled across the ocean to explore the Shadow Island.
The waves of the sea swallowed their boats, and when Elise woke up, she was already on the shore of Shadow Island.
Walking towards the depths of the island, her vitality gradually attracted the demons and undead creatures on the island. A giant black magical spider drove away other shadow creatures, wanting to enjoy Elise alone.
However, just when she thought she was going to be eaten by a spider, the spider turned into a pool of blood and submerged in Elise.
Inexplicable power ran wildly in her body, and Elise's body was gradually transformed into an inhumane monster under the influence of black magic. Her heart also gradually became eager to devour human bodies.
Elise, who was completely distorted by black magic into a combination of shadow spiders and humans, returned to Noxus and established a sect that believed in the of spiders.
In the name of serving the spider god, she tempts those loyal believers to follow her across the oceans to make pilgrimages to the Shadow Island every once in a while.
When believers come to her throne of coiled silk covered with giant spider webs, they will turn into delicious prey in her mouth.
Feeding on humans and supplemented by evil magic, she enjoys the endless temptation of longevity and beauty.
...
"Hi...This Spider Queen is really insidious!"
Ye Feng had lingering fears, but he had seen Elise on the boat. Elise also said that he was her believer. He didn't believe it at the time, but he believes a bit now.
Believers are the food in her mouth!
Sarah opened her mouth and said, "Her methods are very brilliant, I think she must enjoy this process."
After speaking, Sarah took the torch and walked to the next stone tablet.
...
Mordekaiser, once the king of the eastern part of the Valoran continent. Long before Demacia and Noxus, he began to rule his own land.
Because of his dictatorship and brutality, people from many other tribes united to attack his empire.
Before his death, Mordekaiser was wearing silver armor, wielding his hammer "Yemei" and threatened that he would come back for revenge.
The enemies threw his body into the fire with sparks, but they did not turn him to ashes. His armor was burnt yellow, and his body turned into coke-like bones.
When the enemy left, a group of wizards took Mordekaiser's armor and bones.
Placed on a stone slab engraved with runes, the wizards used evil magic to awaken Mordekaiser on a moonless night.
The resurrected Mordekaiser used vicious magic to enslave these mages, turning them into liches. Whenever he is killed by the enemy, he can always come back to life on them.
However, his enemies finally understood his secret after his multiple rebirths. They secretly sent someone to sneak into the magnificent fortress built by Mordekaiser and steal his skull, preventing him from resurrecting.
After success, they killed Mordekaiser and ended his dark reign.
His skull was taken away by the wise men of Fuguang Island and sealed in an underground prison.
Although his servants of the undead lich were looking for his skull day and night, they never fell.
A few hundred years later, a king from the mainland came to Fuguang Island. He released the terrifying black magic and turned Fuguang Island into a distorted realm of immortality-Shadow Island.
The magical blast exploded the seal, and the witches who sensed the master's breath frantically pursued their breath and came to this unrecognizable paradise for the undead.
Mordekaiser did not resurrect his adult body this time, but became an immortal resentful spirit.
He enslaved the newly born undead on the island and turned them into his army of undead.
Even if he became an undead, his ambition and cruelty to conquer everything did not stop, instead he became even more violent.
His gaze crossed the endless sea, and then across the continent of Valoran, to the immortal fortress he once built.
Through the notification of the liches, the civilization on the mainland is prosperous, and there are many countries. And his former fortress became the capital of a country called Noxus.
He is quietly accumulating strength, and a new dark era has arrived.
...
Listening to Sarah's words carefully, Fiona sighed and said with emotion: "Unexpectedly, the ancient family classics only mentioned the place of well-being—Fuguang Island, which turned out to be the land of shadow—Shadow Island. "
Sarah got up and walked to Calista's stele. She thought she would read it, but she went to Hecarim's stele and looked at it for a while.
This time, she still didn't read it, but walked to the last stone of Yorick.
After looking at Yorick’s stele, Sarah said: "The relationship between Calista and Hecarim is more complicated, I will talk about it later; let me talk about Yorick's life experience first. "
After a pause, Sarah began to read the words on the stele.
...
Yorick, originally a member of a sacred group of Fukuoka Island.
Everything on the island was peaceful, until a king with the corpse of the queen led his army here.
The arrival of the king broke the peace and tranquility here. After the king's request to resurrect the dead queen was rejected by the elders on the island, the king ordered his cavalry to start killing all the residents on the island.
Yorick only knew that he would fight to the death against the king's cavalry. Before he died, his ears were filled with sadness and sorrow that the residents of the island had never had before.
When he woke up again, he had turned into an undead undead.
Looking at the past paradise turned into hell, Yorick suddenly felt that the memory of mortal dust was not important to him. Now he wants to continue to guard this island, just guarding it as the dead.
All humans who strayed into the Shadow Island will be brutally killed by him and become his servants, "guarding" here with him.
Just as he did before his death.
...
When Sarah finished talking about Yorick's life experience, Ye Feng said in a daze: "The demons of Shadow Island are really psychologically distorted perverts. They used to be humans. How could they be like this after death?"
Fiona shook her head and said: "I don't know, whether they were human before or not, they are now heinous demons!"
"There are two steles left, Miss Doom, go ahead!" Olaf urged Sarah, but he really wanted to know the relationship between the remaining two demons, and even let Sarah jump away.
At the urging of Olaf, Sarah stopped looking at the stele, but walked to the crowd with a torch in her hand.
Under everyone's gaze, Sarah slowly combed through the description of Calista and Hecarim that she had seen from the stone tablet.
After sorting it out, Sarah took a breath and said: "Next, I will tell you the story of the betrayer and the betrayed."
