he came from the void

Tides welled up in his eyes, beating against the edge of the abyss.

The flame quieted down, and was immediately absorbed by the skin armor.

Following Kane's thoughts, black flames gushed out from the skin armor again, igniting the entire forearm.

He put down his upside-down legs, swooped across the seven-section carapace, and smashed his fists down, his hands burning with black flames melted holes in the monster's carapace.He extinguished the flame, stuck a claw into the weird flesh, and precisely pulled out the faintly pulsating heart.

Half an hour later, Kane managed to remove the huge head of the stitched monster.

Seeing the results of his hard work for a long time, he took off his helmet and sprayed a white mist in the cold and dry air, talking to himself.

"Isn't this head big enough to be scary? There are scary things, but how to transport them to the surface is another problem..."

Chapter 42 Clumsy as hell

In order to expel the human settlement above the abyss, the two temporarily made such a rough plan.

With his powerful detection ability, Kane monitors and hunts the void creatures in the surrounding area to prevent them from spreading to the surface.

But Keisha volunteered, went stealthily to the settlement to find a way to create some supernatural events to shake people's hearts and bring panic.

That's what I said, but in the actual implementation, the mental gap between the two is reflected.

Not only did Cairne fight back the horde of smaller beasts and stop the void from spreading, but he also used their devouring properties to create a monstrous monster.Unable to find a giant beast, he made one himself.

As long as the skull of this monster is placed in the territory of these humans, it can serve as a warning to a certain extent.

A monster skull that cannot be formed naturally is more convincing than any other invisible monsters and ghosts.

In addition, in order to send this skull to the ground, he controlled a ground-boring worm, trying to open a tunnel to the rock group outside the settlement.

Moreover, in addition to serving as a transportation channel, this tunnel also allows Kane to freely enter and exit the ground and underground, so that he can observe the situation on the ground.He was worried that Keisha couldn't handle the people on the ground alone, so he had better come up and take a look.

But Keisha, the girl is so clumsy that she can't keep her mind on anything other than fighting.

She had heard that before an earthquake, animals would give omens and perform a series of abnormal behaviors.

Kesha came to the market through the low tunnel again. She first quietly put the gold coins into the basket where she had taken the comb, and then went to the sheepfold.

The smell from her body immediately startled the sheep, and they bleated and ran wildly in the sheep pen.

This smell will make all creatures feel instinctive fear, but human beings are not sensitive enough to it, and they lack awe of invisible things.Because of ignorance, there is no fear.

"Is everyone fucking mad with mad sheep disease? Serve delicious food and drink, how can I sell you for money if you are so crazy?" The sheep dealer cursed and entered the sheep pen to appease the restless flock.

Hearing his words, Kesha softened her heart and gave up the idea of ​​opening the sheepfold and letting the flock go.

Then she passed the butcher's shop, saw the bucket of blood, and suddenly thought about it.

Kesha came to the door of the butcher's shop, kicked down the bucket of sheep blood while the butcher was not paying attention.The blood that had been placed for a long time poured out, and the originally clean street was suddenly stained with a dark red, which was extremely dazzling.

Passers-by screamed strangely, and the butcher noticed something unusual at the door.

"You son of a bitch, how can I do business if you make your store like this?"

The butcher was furious and yelled at his own children who were playing at the door.Just because he was the closest and the soles of his feet were soaked in blood.

After a loving education, the child was beaten into a trick under the force of the stick, and cried aggrievedly.Then the butcher asked the child to watch the shop, and he carried the bucket to the river to fetch buckets of water to wash the street.

Keisha looked at the child crying, and felt a little sorry for him.But this is all to save them, there is no other way to do it.

Flies came in after smelling the smell and danced on the pool of blood. Under the scorching sun, a puff of breath began to disperse, and people avoided the butcher shop one after another.

Seeing this, Keisha finally felt something was wrong.

Why... there is no trace of fear at all?Is there no one to be afraid?

Not admitting defeat, she walked directly into the pool of blood, and drew a big "Danger" in the pool of blood with her foot.

A trace of fear floated into her nose, and the blamed child looked at the words that appeared out of thin air, frightened by the unknown horror.

So Kesha jumped out of the pool of blood in satisfaction and left the butcher shop.

As for the body becoming visible when stained with blood, or leaving bloody footprints when walking on the street, there is no need to worry at all, the skin armor will naturally swallow the blood on the surface.

The butcher came back from the river with a bucket of muddy water, and when he saw the writing in the pool of blood, he became furious again.

He put down the bucket cursingly and ran straight to his own child, and when he was grabbed, he was beaten violently.

There was crackling, the sound of pounding meatballs from the door of the butcher shop, and the sound of children crying.

A brace.

Keisha came to a booth after going around several times.

This was a special stall, stocked with the repulsed desert pests—scorpions, poisonous snakes, lizards, and dangerous giant insects like the milos and gramis.

Keisha remembered that Kane kept saying that he wanted to find a pair of reliable wings devoured by insects, so when he saw this stall, he couldn't move his feet immediately.

Sensing her presence, the poisonous insects became very agitated and began to gnaw on the cage.

Kemi Mole is a kind of social insect that burrows into the ground. It can't fly, so don't look at it.The Milos worm looks like a beetle, but its body is several times larger than a human head, so she couldn't take it away in public.

So Kaisha thought of releasing poisonous insects to disperse the crowd, which can create panic and drive away pedestrians so that she can take away the insects.

Just doing what she said, Kesha quickly opened a few bamboo baskets in front of the hawkers and released the pests, relying on others not being able to see her.

Because Keisha was nearby, these pests who would fight to the death when they met on weekdays did not dare to do anything wrong, and fled in all directions as soon as they escaped from the cage.

Finding that the situation was wrong, the hawker was the first to run away, someone screamed, and then the whole street was in chaos.

Keisha had no time to worry about this anymore, and with her incredible speed, easily caught up with the flying Milos beetle, reaching out and grabbing its claws from below.

The hordes of Milos are fierce insects that dare to attack even camel convoys, but they dare not even fart in front of Keisha. Fei could not escape her clutches.

In this way, like flying a kite, Keisha pulled Milos back to the entrance of the tunnel with the claws.Pedestrians on the side of the road ran away in fear when they saw the insect, so no one noticed her.

Back underground, Keisha gave Milos to Kane as if asking for credit, full of joy.

"Here, you give me a comb, and I'll give you something nice too."

In her logic, although she went up to "buy" the comb, as long as it was paid by Kane, it would be the same as what he gave.

"This..." Kane was dumbfounded: "Didn't you go to make trouble on it? Why did you catch a big beetle and come back?"

Milos struggled violently in Keisha's hands. It bit its jaws, waved its claws, and flapped its wings.Seeing that it was too noisy, Kane directly pierced its brainstem with a bone spur and nailed it to the rock wall as a specimen.

This subconscious behavior made him feel very strange... This is an extremely rare life in the underground world, why did he kill it so eagerly?

Moreover, he remembered that he was originally afraid of bugs, but now he didn't feel any fear when he pressed it...

He felt a burst of hunger in his mind, pulling his rationality and making him devour Milos quickly.

Kane suddenly woke up, was it the hunger of this layer of skin that dominated him just now?

Feeling the sting of dissatisfaction from the skin armor, Kane felt that he should be more careful, and don't do wrong things impulsively.

Chapter 43 Milos Beetle

After listening to Kesha's detailed report on the "good deeds" he did today, Kane suddenly burst out laughing.

Girl, you think making doomsday prophecies too simple, don't you?

In his mind, everything Kesha does is an everyday accident.What's the use of forgetting in a blink of an eye if it can't cause panic?

If Kane were to go up, then he would directly demolish the house violently, first knock down a few houses that were unoccupied, and then leave some scary marks with a warning meaning, which made people suspicious.

Although Keisha made no progress on the main quest, she did nothing. At least she completed the side quest and brought Milos back.

Even though the worm was already in front of him, Kane still felt unbelievable - such a big goal could be brought back?Won't be discovered?

In any case, he could not refuse the offer.

Milos had already been nailed through the head with a bone spur, hanging on the rock wall motionless.

Even if it is dead, you can still see its horror from its hideous appearance.

The jaws of the Milos beetle are so big that they can directly pinch off a person's neck, and the combined force of the two claws can grab a person into the sky. The hard carapace can't even be pierced by a bow and arrow... People generally use fire to drive them away. But this approach does not necessarily work.

The hordes of Milos are the most feared predators of the desert, and one of the last disasters a caravan wants to encounter.

If Keisha was just an ordinary 12-year-old girl, she might be the one who was taken.

"It's big, black and hard, and only the dragon tortoise will eat this kind of bug." Kane muttered, pressing his palm on the sleek back of the giant beetle, and began to devour it.

In his opinion, Milos is very strong, but even if he fights against the weakest Void Spirit, he has no chance of winning at all—the top predators will also be reduced to food in front of the Void.

During the devouring process, he glanced at his threaded bone spurs, it was very troublesome that this thing couldn't be swung sometimes.

For example, when he broke off the head of the suture giant, if the bone spur had a cutting effect, it wouldn't make him so hard - it got into the mouth, devoured and separated the part connecting the head, and then tore it off with strange force.

But even so, Kane doesn't think there is anything unreasonable about the bone spur.

In this narrow underground space, the sword may not be able to be used, or the blade may be rolled over due to cutting the hard exoskeleton.On the contrary, the short and thin bone spurs are very useful, and can more easily pierce the heart of void creatures.

Devouring Milos, Kane doesn't want the jaws, the big claws, but the pair of elytra.

His back suddenly arched, the dark armor split from the midline, and the armor plate bounced to reveal a pair of membranous triangular wings. pulled by the muscles.

The sudden spread of the wings and the high-raised elytra kicked off the airflow, making Kane a lot bigger all of a sudden, and he was as fierce as a catastrophe.

Keisha was taken aback, and then she was sincerely happy for Kane, after all, she also had part of the credit for it.

"How about giving it a try? If it doesn't work, I'll catch a few more desert locusts for you." She said excitedly, expecting more than Kane herself.

Keisha never felt that there was anything wrong with her void skin armor being devoured but not evolving, because Kane said a long time ago that no two void creatures are exactly the same, just like no two leaves are the same in the world. totally consistent.

Besides, she has never seen the structure of the shoulder pod from any other void creature, and it is unique to her.

"Kessa, step back a little."

Kane is going to fly in the cave and ask Keisha to make room for him.

The strong airflow from the vibrating wings sent sand and rocks flying on the ground, and Kane immediately frowned.

He just let the skin armor vibrate the wings, and before his feet left the ground, he made a very loud noise.

This noise cannot be avoided, because he has to flap his wings hundreds of times a second to generate enough lift to lift him off the ground.

When he was flying, the noise became even louder, like the propellers of a helicopter hovering in his ears, the roaring sound he could only reduce by putting down his helmet.

Alas, regardless of the noise, the flying movement is the most important thing.

There is no problem with floating in the air, but you need to keep the frequency of flapping wings at a certain value to hover stably in the air. Once you slow down, you will fall down and cannot glide.

Moving in the air is very unskilled, but the sense of balance of the body is too poor, and it takes more practice to move freely.

There wasn't much space in the cave, and Kane flew crookedly at a height of several meters, and came down after finding no fatal problems.

A pair of membranous wings were taken off and discarded, and the carapace was healed by muscle contraction, and it returned to the original dark armor.

"It's really taken off!" Kaisha saw that Kane was flying without any pressure, and thought that it shouldn't be a big problem to take her own double flight.

"It feels good, but the consumption is a bit high..."

In the test flight, in addition to the problem of noise, Kane also found another big problem.

In the law of the void, energy and matter can be transformed into each other.Although he doesn't use much matter to generate wings, he consumes a lot of energy when flapping his wings, which is completely opposite to wings.

It vibrates hundreds of times per second, so it's no wonder that it doesn't consume much.This is determined by the structure, and he cannot change it.

"Then eat more and clear all the nearby monsters!"

Keisha was very touched. Recently, due to her long-term invisibility, her food intake has increased a lot, and the time spent on hunting has greatly increased.

However, the void creatures were killed as many as possible. Even if their hunting frequency doubled, the nearby monsters did not decrease significantly.

Speaking of monsters, Kane remembered the giant beast he had killed, so he asked Keisha to help him move the head to the surface together, and by the way, let her familiarize himself with the newly dug tunnel.

When they came to the edge of the abyss, Keisha found that it was really a huge head, and the two half-grown children could be stuffed in its mouth.

"It's not easy to move..." Keisha felt a little hard just looking at it, and she didn't even know how Kane hunted such a huge monster alone.

"Eat off the meat to lose weight, and the remaining skull is easy to carry."

Seeing Kane's playful smile, Kesha's expression suddenly collapsed.

If you don't look for me if you devour the heart, let me clean up the leftovers!

snort!

Generally speaking, the two hunted only for the heart. Compared with the heart full of essence energy, the remaining parts of the void creature are a bit tasteless.

It takes too much time to devour, the nutrition you get is limited, and it's disgusting to handle.
