Chapter 2251 Shurima, Your Emperor Is Here

As expected, he was in the Shurima Desert, home of the empire that once dominated Runeterra. The Shurima Empire was created by the Ascended armies of god-warriors, uniting the desperate southerners and bringing lasting peace among them.

Few dared to resist. Those who rebelled, such as the cursed nation of Icathia, were ruthlessly trampled. However, after thousands of years of growth and prosperity, the Ascension ritual of the last Shurima emperor failed, leaving the entire empire in ruins, and the last of Shurima's former glory was left as a myth.

Today, most nomadic residents of the Shurima Desert must scavenge for basic supplies in this unforgiving land. Some maintain small outposts around a few oases, while others dive into long-lost tombs in search of priceless treasures that should never be excavated. Some people also became mercenaries, and in order to survive, they died in the wild desert and returned to dust.

It is normal for Lin Jiu to be teleported here. From the Shurima Empire's creation of the Sun Disc, it can be seen that this Ascendant Empire is more or less involved with the Sun Camp, and the former core city of Shurima is located at the foot of the Targon Peak. There is a solar force on the Targon Peak, the Church of the Blazing Sun.

Then it is reasonable for Lin Jiu, the son of the sun, to be teleported to the Shurima Desert instead of the Twin Cities he had been to. There is also a saying about the location of the Shurima Desert.

The Shurima Desert is located in the southern part of Rune Continent, adjacent to the Targon Peak in the west, Ixtal in the east, and separated from Noxus by a bay in the north. There are also transactions with the Twin Cities, and many nobles in Piltover have mineral resources in Shurima.

After the fall of the Shurima Empire, the environment here became increasingly harsh, with yellow sand as the main landform feature. The tide of yellow sand carved out passages between rocks, forming magnificent sand waterfalls. The sand dunes in the desert are rolling, like golden waves, constantly changing their shapes under the wind.

There are also many monsters in the desert that adapt to the harsh environment, such as giant beasts such as Skarash, which can survive and reproduce under extreme conditions.

Despite the harsh environment of the Shurima Desert, there are still a few oases, which are valuable resources for nomads and scavengers to survive.

The existence of oases is still because there is a narrow water vein running through the desert from east to west, providing valuable survival resources for the people here, but even so, most of Shurima is still covered by vast deserts.

As a derivative world of a game, although Lin Jiu can roughly understand the background, it is really hard to say the combat power of the heroes known in this world. After all, the extraordinary system of this world is very complicated, unlike the Holy Soul system of Yanling Star.

Lin Jiu roughly divided it into several echelons. The first echelon is naturally the Star-Forging Dragon King and his kind who created the various planets and continents after the birth of the universe (mainly based on the new version of the background). The Star-Forging Dragon King is also the strongest among his kind. There are also the ancient fire phoenix, the Weiyin Holy Dragon who created destiny, and the Qixin Henglong who instilled knowledge. The Star-Forging Dragon King is the ceiling-level existence of this world. According to the upper limit of this world, it belongs to the ninth-level combat power.

The second echelon is those star spirits, each of which symbolizes a constellation. The stars were created by the Star-Forging Dragon King, and the star spirits were born from the stars. Naturally, they are very humble in front of the Star-Forging Dragon King. But compared with other creatures, they are high above.

The interesting part of the derivative world is here, because it is a "derived" world, affected by the background, the "omniscient and omnipotent" Star-Forging Dragon King was actually designed by the star spirits, trapped in one place, and stealing knowledge and power. If it is in the original world, this world is ninth-level, then the ceiling may be extremely strong, not the ninth-level that will be calculated like the Star-Forging Dragon King. Arceus, the creator god of the Pokémon world, has not broken through the constraints of the world rank.

The third echelon is naturally the demigods headed by Ornn and Volibear of Freljord. They are naturally gods, but they are called demigods because they were originally natural spirits born before humans. After the emergence of humans, they gradually gathered faith and condensed the godhood, which is the so-called "source of God" and became gods.

The fourth echelon is the ascenders of the Shurima Empire, and later the Darkin, etc. Their source is the Star Forger Dragon King who was calculated by the Protoss. By stealing the power and knowledge of the Star Forger Dragon King, the Sun Disc, a core item that can gather the power of the sun star and enhance the strength of the warriors, was created, and the Ascendant Army was established.

The fifth echelon is the peak of humanity, similar to Ryze and Blademaster, who have reached the pinnacle in their own practice.

The sixth echelon is ordinary extraordinary people, whose strength is far beyond that of ordinary people, but they cannot resist the power of the army. Lux, Jinx, Wei, and a certain councilor are all at this level.

This echelon division only refers to the majority of members of these groups, and those outstanding individuals are not included. For example, the mechanically ascended Viktor, the future Viktor mentioned in the background story, wants to pull the entire planet to mechanically ascend, and his strength is at least at the level of demigod. The sword demon among the darkin is not inferior to the demigod, and some powerful demigods are not necessarily crushed by the Protoss.

All in all, the derivative world of Rune Continent has a wide range of levels. The fifth and sixth echelons basically cover the second to sixth levels of combat power; the fourth echelon is from the sixth to the seventh level, and the third echelon is Level seven to level eight, and the second echelon is level eight to level nine. The first echelon is basically the ninth level of strong people.

At the same level, it does not mean that the characters in the derivative world are weaker than those in the native world, but that the contractor has enough information and understanding of the characters in the derivative world to make targeted calculations. For those characters in the native world, it would be nice not to be plotted by those old yinbi.

However, pure numerical monsters like the Casting Star Dragon King are not very good at combat. After all, their race was born as the strongest group in the world. They had no combat experience at all and had always been condescending to crush them. Lin Jiu was certain that even if he had just entered the ninth level, he would be sure to defeat the Star Casting Dragon King. Anyway, his so-called "omniscience and omnipotence" was like a joke.

Lin Jiu stood on the sand dune and looked into the distance. In his sight, he seemed to see the incomplete sun disk that was left of the once glorious Shurima Empire. He wore the title of Son of the Sun and said with a smile: "Shurima, your emperor." Coming!"

Although he hasn’t seen what the main mission is yet, there is no doubt that gathering the remnants of Shurima will be very helpful for his actions in this world. In the desert, there is a mixture of fish and dragons. It has long been no longer the overlord of the continent, but there are still a few people who dream of recreating the grand scene of the past. What Lin Jiu has to do is to spread the news and gather this power.

Of course, there are also tasks to be dealt with on Mount Targon. Mount Targon is located on the west side of the Shurima Desert. It is the top of the world in Rune Land. This towering mountain is entirely made of hard rocks. It is bathed in the scorching sun all year round and always overlooks the mountains at its feet. It is majestic and majestic. Unparalleled in the world.

Under Mount Targon was also the former capital of the Shurima Empire, so Lin Jiu naturally wanted to rebuild the Sun Empire there.
