Chapter 188: Evil Will Know What Pain Is
Even though the Protoss had taught mortals how to seal the Darkin, they still paid a huge price for it!

It is really difficult for the audience to evaluate the Protoss group.

On the bright side, they did stop the Darkin War and wiped them out.

But on the other hand, this annihilation is only temporary. Although the Darkin are sealed, they can only be regarded as existing in this world in another way!
And when these Darkin weapons appear again, they will surely cause a bloody storm in the world!
The most difficult thing to evaluate is that to seal these dark descendants, mortals have to do it themselves!

For example, the Valoran Queen in the picture, she is not an ascender, but the audience seems to see the style of Setaka in her!
That was the War Queen of the Ascendants, who died on the battlefield fighting to stop the invasion of the Void!
But now, none of these crazy darkspawn who were being chased and blocked by mortals could get close to Setaka's shadow.

However, this mortal Queen of Valoran knew the corrupting power of the Darkin weapon, but in order to reduce the casualties of her troops, she still picked up the weapon that sealed Varus!
When her will is strong enough to counter the power of the darkin weapon, the weapon will be hers!
Just like Kayn and Rhaast.

And this bow, which can be named "Vairus", is used by the Queen of Valoran to deal with other Darkin!

She resolutely sacrificed herself for the great victory.

Several months later, Empress Wu brought Varus to the New Land, which people later called Ionia.

She decided to seal herself away completely along with Varus. At this time, the power of the bow had made her horrible. Her last order was for her followers to bury her alive at the bottom of a lightless well, deep in the mountain temple overlooking Pallas.

This is why there are those mysterious legends related to the Temple of Pallas!
Varus was bound by the natural magic of Ionia and the rituals of the temple guards, while the darkin sword demon Aatrox broke free and killed in the world.

The bow and arrow still remained quietly at the bottom of the well.

Varus has nowhere to use his great power, and can only use the power of the Darkin to corrupt and influence the surrounding environment.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will continue to be sealed in this deep well for hundreds of years.

The longbow lay hidden for centuries, unknown, untouched, and forgotten, until the Noxians invaded the First Lands.

……

——"Damn! It's all the fault of that damn Noxus!"

——"If they hadn't invaded Ionia, Varus would have remained sealed!"

——"Alas! What a pity for Valmao and Kai."

——"They resisted the Noxians, but died at the hands of Varus!"

——"That's not the case. Even without Noxus, Varus will be freed from the seal sooner or later!"

——"I can only say that Protoss's method has too many loopholes!"

——"In a way, Varus saved Kai. At least he is still conscious now."

Varus lifted the seal, and the consciousness of the three people stayed in the body composed of two people.

After thousands of years of waiting, Varus was reborn.

But the audience in front of the screen realized another thing. Even Varus, who was requested by the Valoran Queen and imprisoned by the natural magic of Ionia and the rituals of the temple guards, can reappear in the world!
What about the other Darkin?

Sooner or later, they will be reborn in this world, so what is the use of the mortals' seal on the darkin? This looks like a prank deliberately made by the Protoss!
The greatest pain that Sealing the Darkin brings to them is locking them in a cage made of their weapons from which they can never leave.

This cannot really destroy them, but it can torture them!

Just like Aatrox, when he realized this, he was left with only endless anger and hatred towards this world!

In the end, the ones who suffer are still the mortals in the world, and they will still be slaughtered by the Darkspawn.

Only those with strong wills can resist the corruption of the darkin power, just like Kayn.

But Kayn is always in danger. Once he becomes weak, Rhaast will take his body away.

The misfortune of Valmao and Kai is actually the luck of mortals. In the same body, the two of them can resist the corruption of Varus together!
Within this imperfect body, the spirits of humans and darkin rise and fall, each side briefly gaining the upper hand before being overwhelmed by the other.

Varus wanted nothing more than to silence the souls of the two mortals forever, and then to avenge his fellow men.

At the same time, Kai and Valmao struggled to resist Varus's malice, hoping that their love for each other would eventually conquer the hatred of the Darkin.

No one can be sure how long they can compete with Varus.

But if this sadistic, megalomaniacal killer were to gain complete control of the body, he would seek to reunite with his people, before reducing Runeterra to an ash-strewn wasteland.

No one doubts this.

An example is the Darkin Sword Demon Aatrox, who has long controlled the Sword Demon's greatsword to kill people in the world!
Varus was already cruel and ruthless when he was still a mortal, and after becoming an ascender, he has been on the road of revenge!
It was not the void that distorted him, but the hatred brought by the void!
And now Varus not only continues to look for the enemies who destroyed his hometown in the world, but also looks for those who imprisoned him. He is eager to take revenge, but the two souls in his body are obstructing his every step.

……

Varus' story is very short, and it is indeed an easter egg, the aftermath of the Darkin War and the Shurima Empire.

But his story reveals many problems!

That is when the Darkin will finally return to the world! Not only is Varus sealed in his longbow, he is even buried at the bottom of a well, deep in a mountain temple overlooking Pallas.

The natural magic of Ionia and the rituals of the temple guards have doubly confined him!
Even so, he was reborn!
"It seems that the final fate of these dark weapons is that they require someone with a strong will to possess them!"

During the commentary program, Jiang Wen and Guo Fan both frowned and fell into deep thought.

The Star Spirits have given everyone a difficult problem.

Kayn and Rhaast are an answer, and Varus is an incomplete answer.

However, in the case of Rhaast, only Kayn is needed to suppress him, while in the case of Varus, it becomes Kai and Valmaw, who can only barely resist Varus' will.

What if it was Aatrox? Is there anyone in the world who can control this sword?
Maybe Atreus can, his will can even be transformed into a Protoss.

But there is only one Atreus in this world, but there is more than one Darkin!
When these Darkin are reborn into the world again, how can we prevent the next Darkin War?
