Because of the seal, Gregory couldn't get too far away from his frozen body. That was why he was bounced back when he tried to fly to Frostguard Fortress just now.
This arcane sealing magic derived from the world runes has completely imprisoned him here. If magic is forcibly used to tear it apart, Gregor's soul may be annihilated.
Even Li Lin had no way unless he went to Demacia to get the World Rune.
After careful consideration, or perhaps out of adherence to his duties, Gregor gave up the idea of ​​confronting Lissandra head-on, and asked Ashe, Sejuani, and Li Lin to take their share and kill the traitor.
His soul returned to the frozen stone pillar, and the six rune tablets sank into the underground platform and were soon covered by the falling ice and snow.
The anti-gravity device and engine started, and Li Lin, Ashe and Sejuani flew straight to the bridge built by Ornn.
This bridge has many names, including "Trial Ground", "Murder Bridge", "King's Bridge", and "Howling Vault".
But Sejuani, who had come into contact with the Frostguard, knew that within the Frostguard, it was often called the "Bridge of Sorrow" because thousands of Iceborn had fallen here just to fight against the Frost Watchers.
Of course, the history they knew was only the history that the Frost Witch intentionally spread. Li Lin knew that the truth of the past history, and the only true record of the manuscript, was written by Lissandra's most trusted subordinates and is now sealed deep in the Frostguard Fortress.
The Bridge of Sorrow is not the only bridge over the chasm, but it is the main bridge at the top.
From north to south, more than ten bridges span the chasm, many of which are far below the cliffs and connect to buildings built inside the glacier.
The thick fog spreading from the abyss engulfed most areas, and these bridges were basically blocked by the Frost Guards themselves, apparently to restrict access to the Ice Guard Fortress.
There is only one open bridge, which is two or three hundred meters away from the Bridge of Sorrow.
Although Li Lin's mechanical army could easily crush Lissandra and her Iceborn army, he chose to land at the bridge head and did not intend to confront them head-on.
Even the pinnacle of elemental magic, the True Ice created by Anivia, the demigod of winter, combined with the Ornn Bridge as a sealing node, could not completely seal the Void Watcher.
Thousands of years passed, and the True Ice beneath the Howling Abyss was almost eroded by the power of corruption. If Lissandra had not been collecting dreams and maintaining the Watchers' slumber, they would have broken out of the ice long ago.
She is the top priority in maintaining the seal, and Li Lin doesn't want to fall out with her for the time being unless it is absolutely necessary.
The reason why he came early was mainly because he wanted to negotiate with Lissandra and implement the "Great Wall Project" near Howling Abyss and Iceguard Fortress to establish the first line of defense.
The three of them landed in front of the bridge, and their armor changed into ordinary clothes.
Guarding the main bridge were two male Iceborn men. They were shirtless, expressionless, and held spears with Zhenbing tips. Their strong and muscular bodies were covered with scars, making them look like veterans who had experienced countless battles.
They saw that the three strange invaders, Li Lin, Ashe and Sejuani, were not nervous at all, and did not even raise their weapons, as if they had already anticipated their arrival.
Li Lin gave Ashe a look, but before she could introduce herself, one of the Iceborn took a step forward and quickly looked at the three of them with cold eyes.
"She's been waiting for you." The man just said casually, and he and the guard beside him turned half to the side to make way for them to pass.
Not only Ashe and Sejuani, but even Li Lin felt a little confused, but they were soon relieved.
He cracked the magic that Lissandra used to seal the stone tablet and tamper with Gregor's memory. This guy must have a backup plan.
Gregor's conspiracy has been exposed, and Ashe is currently eager to unify Freljord. It is only a matter of time before she comes to the door, and Lissandra has already made preparations.
Unlike Ashe and Sejuani, who hesitated when they arrived at the gate of Frostguard Fortress, Li Lin, who had no fear at all, strode forward and passed by the two Frostguards.
The two War Mothers hurried after him, stepping onto the Bridge of Sorrow at shoulder level with him.
Along the way, the three of them met many Frost Guards, all of whom stayed at their posts and ignored the three uninvited guests.
Across the Bridge of Sorrow, which was hundreds of meters long, dozens of thick chains were dragged through the magical stone pillars on both sides that emitted a cold and icy light, pulling up the gate that was made of molten metal and boulders and was covered with a layer of ice at the bridge head, revealing the magic teleportation array behind it.
Under the guidance of the guide, Li Lin, Ashe and Sejuani stood in the center of the arcane array engraved with runes. After a dizzying moment, they came to their senses and their vision suddenly changed. They entered the interior of the Frostguard Fortress in the glacier.
The temperature here is extremely cold, much lower than the severe weather outside with howling wind and falling snow. The hall of the Frost Guard Fortress is seventy or eighty meters high, and is always a dark ice-blue color, shining without any light.
Countless crisscrossing frozen granite blades stand on the frozen ground, with only half of them exposed to the outside world, emitting an aggressive edge. Beside each giant blade there is a frost priest wearing a sacrificial robe waiting.
This is the weapon that Lissandra has spent thousands of years to forge. It is the last resort to fight against the Void Watchers. All Frost Priests must be prepared at all times so that they will respond immediately as soon as they hear the alarm.
This is a magical miracle constructed purely by human power, which feels completely different from the mechanical "miracle" created by Li Lin.
Sejuani was stunned, and Ashe had seen the actual footage of Li Lin driving a mecha to fight the Void. Although she was not as shocked as her sisters in robes, she was also moved.
