he came from the void

Chapter 74 manuscript

Kassadin stepped aside, and through the lens on the helmet, he saw Kane spread his hand, a mass of purple viscous energy gushing out from his palm.

Under his control, this mass of energy began to swell like fermented dough, turning into a disgusting substance that palely reflected the luster of the fetal membrane.

The mass of matter stretched and deformed, giving birth to swollen limbs, showing an ugly prototype.

Then it reacted with the air, and the outer layer gradually darkened and hardened, forming a chitinous carapace.

In the monster's body, a part of the energy is not used to form the body, and it stays in the body, serving as the heart to light up the monster's three long and narrow eyes.

It is a Void Spirit the size of a domestic dog!

The newly born Void Spirit's viciousness remained undiminished, and it was about to pounce on Kane by manipulating the blade foot that had not yet fully hardened.

Kassadin was stunned watching the birth process of Kane creating the ethereal just now, and now he came back to his senses and immediately popped out the blade of the underworld and swung it at the monster.

Unexpectedly, Kane raised his hand again to resist his wrist.

"Shh! Uncle, if you cut it, we'll be finished!" Kane warned in a low voice.

Kassadin glanced at the ethereal, and it was mentally controlled by Kane. Not far away, the ethereal swarm began to stir up, looking for the source of the inexplicable magic.

He quickly retracted the blade of the underworld, silently watching what Kane was trying to do.

"How did you do it?" Keisha threw herself on Kane's back and asked in a low voice.

"Kesha, you can't control them after you learn it."

"No, since you can create ethereal spirits, why do you have to come out and look for things?"

"Why don't you eat yourself when the void is hungry, you are so stupid!"

"Hmph! I've got my revenge, I'm going to eat you!" Kesha bit Kane's ear directly, but it didn't affect his operation.

Under his control, the hideous Void Spirit turned around and crawled towards the Void Spirit swarm.

Void Spirit came all the way to the edge of the swarm, and the swarm did not reject it, nor did it find any abnormalities in it.

It crawled towards the center of the swarm, and some smaller ethereals moved a few steps to make way for it.

Just like that, the Void Spirit came to the middle of the insect swarm, and then lowered its body, purple highlights bloomed from its body.

Boom!The light of the explosion devoured everything within a radius of several meters.

Looking at the huge crater corroded after the explosion, and the broken and sticky limbs inside, Kassadin was shocked at first, and then felt a chill down his spine.

He was glad that he didn't kill the void spirit created by Kane, otherwise they would be the ones who died in the explosion right now.

"After the performance, clean up the scene and we'll go back."

Kane didn't lower his voice, because the bug swarm had been taken over in one go, and what he had to do now was to pick up those hearts and absorb them.

Back at the tower, Keisha curiously asked Kane to tell her everything, what happened to the self-destructing ethereal.

"The body structure of that Void Spirit is no different from the normal one, but I have made some changes in its heart. This thing is originally an energy core, and it will become extremely unstable if you move it a little bit. Then Control it to rush towards the target, and with a bang, bring annihilation to the enemy."

Kane knew that Keisha could also manipulate void energy, and she might have researched it herself after watching his demonstration.

So he explained in advance that she was forbidden to try to create void creatures.Just because she can't control what she creates is very dangerous.

Being backlashed by the creatures you created is really stupid.

Because there are not many creatures swallowed by the skin armor, there is very little genetic information stored in the gene pool, and there are very few creatures that Kane can create.

The larger the size of ethereals, strange birds, and beetles, the more difficult they are to create. Kane, who has just mastered this ability, is not enough to create those big guys he has devoured before.

And the limitations of void creations are also very large. The bite of fangs and claws is very weak in the face of void creatures. They all have hard carapace protection, and creations that cannot hurt the heart have no value in being created.

And Kane can't keep distracted to micro-manipulate the creation of the void, so when hunting, the most convenient way is to use self-detonation to solve everything.

Explosions are art, after all.

The development of void energy has not made much progress for the time being, so Kane returned to the book and re-immersed in the world of magic.

Even if only Kassadin is eating the food in the tower, there will be a day when it will be eaten up. At that time, they will have to leave Icacia and return to human society.

Kane can't take these books with him, so he has to work harder to convert the contents of the books into his own knowledge, so that this trip is worthwhile.

His life is of the utmost importance. Kane didn't realize how dangerous this place was until he came to Icacia. After he left, he had no intention of coming back for a short time.

One day, as usual, Kane was leaning against the window to concentrate on studying an ancient magic book by the flashing light of thunder.

Although the helmet allows Kane to see things in the dark, it is mainly used to distinguish between living and dead things, and to see the outlines of the two clearly.The dark vision of the helmet is of no help to the ink that is written on the page.

It can't tell the difference in color on a dead object, so Kane can only read books with the naked eye.The naked eye needs light to see things, so Kane can only read the book momentarily in the light of thunder outside the window at night.

Keisha hasn't read all the words yet, sitting next to Kane to meditate.Two people will basically not meditate at the same time, otherwise they will compete with each other for resources, which will lead to lower efficiency.

In fact, Keisha is not stupid, and her progress in literacy is not slow, but compared with Kane, who has almost no memory, it is far behind.

And Kane is more diligent and focused than her, unlike her who is distracted after learning, always thinking about teasing Kane.

That's what puberty is all about. Once the hormones hit the brain, you always want the attention of the opposite sex.

Kane can read a book without looking at her for a long time, so she can't help but do some small tricks to attract him, such as secretly reaching out and pulling under the table, deliberately dropping things under the other person's feet, or whispering something, so the learning progress was pulled far away.

Halfway through Kane's reading, Kassadin came back with the only candlestick in the tower.

Because time is frozen, this candlestick emits a weak but steady light forever, and the flame on the candle will never flicker, nor can it ignite other objects.

Kassadin took the candlestick just now for convenience. When he came back, he put the candlestick in front of Kane, and then continued to search for information about the eternal flame on the huge bookshelf from the corner of his eye.

In order to prevent his family from being swallowed by the void again, Kassadin took this matter very seriously.

But after half a year, he went through all the books in the tower one by one, but he couldn't find a way to create this kind of flame.

But this time, he still couldn't find the information.

However, when flipping through the bookshelves, a stack of hidden manuscripts accidentally fell off.

Kassadin thought it was the information of Eternal Flame, and happily opened it to check, then his expression gradually lost.

But he is still ready to read it responsibly.

But it was terrible to look at it, the mysterious technique made him dizzy, as if a lot of knowledge poured into his brain at the same time, forming a vortex.

This is the first time he has encountered such a situation, and he flipped through it at a glance, just to retrieve information about the eternal flame.

But even such mindless reading is still influenced by what is recorded in the manuscript.

Kassadin knew that the manuscript was not simple, so he brought it to Kane.

Chapter 75 The Gaze of the Void Eye

"Kane, take a look at this thing."

Kassadin doesn't talk much on weekdays, except for some necessary words, he rarely chats with Kane.

So as soon as Kane heard his voice, he immediately looked away from the book and looked at Kassadin who was walking towards him.

"Look at this, I'm getting dizzy just looking at it."

Kane took the manuscript and glanced at it a few times. He was stunned at first, and then showed fanaticism.

This manuscript is worth more than all the books in the entire tower!

Although very excited, Kane patiently read through the manuscript first.

Kassadin saw that he did not appear dizzy, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly that Kane's ability to digest information is really high.

"This is a mage's essay on the law of time." After reading the manuscript, Kane concluded.

"The law of time? No wonder it makes people dizzy at a glance. The thoughts of those master mages are really crazy." Kassadin rubbed his temples, trying to get rid of the dizziness from his mind.

"Those mages dare to even touch the void, what else are they afraid of?" Kesha took the topic, and it was time to find a chance to escape from the boring meditation.

Kane smiled mischievously. The owner of this manuscript was one of the few mages who opposed the release of the Void by the Law Enforcement Council, and maybe he was watching him at this moment. He didn't want to make a bad impression by speaking ill of others in person.

"Uncle, thank you for finding this manuscript, it is very useful." Kane smiled sincerely.

The owner of this manuscript is the person who is closest to success in studying the law of time since ancient times. If Kane can get any inspiration from it, it will allow him to achieve an unprecedented improvement in this field.

Kane continued to look at the manuscript, but Kassadin did not intend to end the conversation.

He paused for a while, then said in a deep voice: "Kain, I think there may be no information about Eternal Flame in the tower."

Kane looked up, puzzled.

"I've looked through all the books, and none of them explained its source, nor did they tell us how to obtain this flame." Kassadin said with a sense of loss, it was a life-saving thing for the family. .

If he knew which ancient tomb this thing was in, he would go down to check it out no matter how dangerous it was.

"Thank you, Uncle." Kane told Kassadin to sit down: "This tower is only the private property of a certain parliamentary mage, not the country's privy library. It is normal that some things are not recorded. You don't need to blame yourself. .”

Kassadin nodded silently, but he did not give up his plan.

If you can find a magic relic like the blade of the underworld that has killed countless void creatures, maybe you can restrain the erosion of the void

He didn't know Kane had an alternative.

When Kassadin was sleeping, Kane was still studying the manuscript, and he was fascinated by this sight, and couldn't put it down.

He didn't let go of the manuscript until Keisha pushed Kane down to sleep on a mattress.

But even with his eyes closed, he was still reminiscing about the contents of the manuscript, watching how the author deduced the essence step by step.

Occasionally, absurd ideas will pop up, such as an ordinary candle, which has been given the magic of stopping time, can it be called an eternal flame?

Obviously not.There is a candlestick in the tower to verify that it cannot pose any threat to the void skin armor.

After living a comfortable life for too long, it is easy to ignore the coming of the crisis.

As long as you stay in the tower, you don't have to be afraid of being discovered by void creatures.Coupled with Kane's original meditation method, the two have completely turned into nerds and nerds, ruthless learning machines that live by "photosynthesis".

Kassadin seldom goes out, because Kesha told him that the real void cannot be killed, nor is it something they can seal.So his daily routine has become exercising and reading in the tower, taking into account the observation of the outside world.

On this day, Kassadin leaned against the window and stared into the distance as usual.

The dark clouds cover the sun, and the tide in the abyss rises and falls forever, making people confused about what kind of dimension is beyond the realm.

Although curious, no one really dared to try it.

Just when Kassadin was distracted, a strange light came into his eyes.

Not a flash of thunder, but a constant light.

This strange light made his eyes sore and teary, and the capillaries congested and expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, prominently appearing on the whites of his eyes.

And he didn't even see what the light source was.

"Kane!" Kassadin had to close his eyes and called out to Kane.

Kane was reading a book in one hand and holding a mirror in the other, acting as a vanity mirror for Kesha who was combing her hair. Hearing Kassadin's eager voice, he hurried over without putting down his things.

"What happened?" Kane saw Kassadin's tearful face and approached him.

When he walked to the window, he suddenly felt a warm purple light shining on his face, and his skin immediately felt a splitting tingling pain.

He immediately leaned his back against the wall to avoid the purple light coming in from the window, then picked up the mirror and stretched it into the light from the sky, adjusting the direction little by little to reflect the scene outside the window.

He was stunned by what was reflected in the mirror.

It was a huge, bulging one-eyed eye, constantly jumping out arcs of annihilation.It twitched suddenly, and its long and narrow vertical pupils shrank and shrank, revealing a thoughtful look.

Even through a mirror, Kane could feel a hunger beyond imagination.

This hunger is not a thirst for flesh, but something deeper.

It is thirsty for knowledge!

"Be careful! It's Vel'Koz!"

"Vel'Koz?!" Kassadin, whose eyes were stung by tears, was terrified when he heard the name.

Anyone who has a little knowledge of the ancient legends of Shurima will know the meaning of the name Vel'Koz.

While the name doesn't translate exactly into modern languages, it roughly equates to "understanding by breaking down."

That is, "knowledge comes from decomposition"

It is a monster that existed long before the dawn of Shurima, the earliest void creature ever recorded.

And now, it's watching them!
