LOL: Let me touch your steel

Hearing this, Kassa's expression suddenly became strange.

Of course she remembered, because the protagonist of this story was herself!

The story Zhang Xu told was exactly the same as her experience!

Feeling Kasa's gaze, Zhang Xu coughed twice and explained:

"I actually met a member of a cult in the underground world. He tried to attack me by surprise, but I killed him. The magic I know was stolen from him."

"Stealing the power of your enemies... what a remarkable ability! In that case, you also have a miracle."

As she spoke, Kassa suddenly laughed.

Also.

Being able to survive in a place like the void for such a long time is a miracle in itself.

Kasha didn't ask any further questions, she already knew what she wanted to know.

"Well now, we should move on, Zhang Xu."

......

Zhang Xu discovered that Kasa seemed to be in a low mood in recent days.

After he told Kassa about his own story, their relationship had become much closer, and Kassa talked a lot more than before.

But in recent days, Kaisa has become silent again.

Even throughout the whole day today, Kassa didn't say a word.

After hunting several void creatures, Zhang Xu finally asked a question:

"Kasha, what happened? I feel like... your mood seems a little off."

Something is extremely wrong.

Even during the battle, Kaisa seemed a little absent-minded.

Although her performance in the battle could still be described as perfect, Zhang Xu could clearly feel that Kassadin's mind seemed to be focused elsewhere.

It's impossible that I'm always in a bad mood for a few days every month, right?

Kai'Sa, who already lives in symbiosis with the void creatures, should not have this kind of physiological problem, right?

Hearing the concerned voice beside her, Kassa raised her head, and a trace of sadness flashed in her lavender eyes.

"We have arrived at the southern desert of the original world above ground. We should be very close to the entrance to the void."

Zhang Xu didn't quite understand.

Isn't this a good thing?

Getting closer to the entrance to the void land means they are getting closer to leaving this damn place.

Zhang Xu suddenly noticed the dense skin armor on Kassa's body, and a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.

Maybe he's afraid that after returning to the outside world, he'll be mistaken for a monster by people outside, right?

Zhang Xu was just about to open his mouth to comfort Kasa when he heard Kasa whisper in a deeper tone than ever before: "We are very close to the entrance to the Void Land, and even closer to my hometown."

"Of course, my hometown, that once quiet and peaceful village, should have become a ruin now."

Hearing this, Zhang Xu was stunned.

After being plundered by the void and taken into the void land, he struggled to survive and returned to the surface after seven years, and saw his former home again.

Even though it has become a ruin swallowed by the void, it is inevitable that there will be waves of emotion in my heart.

Zhang Xu, who was always eloquent, couldn't find any words to comfort Kasa at this moment. He could only sigh and said softly:

"Why don't you go back and take a look? I'll accompany you. Maybe we can find something memorable there?"

Chapter 14 Kassadin

“My home is not far ahead.”

Kassadin subconsciously clenched his fists. This warrior who had never retreated in the face of the terrifying void creatures actually seemed a little hesitant at this moment.

Taking advantage of the dim light here, Zhang Xu looked in the direction of Kasa's finger.

The purple light in his eyes seemed to be able to break through all darkness and see any scene ahead.

But Zhang Xu saw nothing.

There was nothing in the direction of Kassa's finger.

There were no remains of buildings, no signs of past human habitation, no signs of any village ever having existed.

Some are just quicksand and gravel.

Zhang Xu opened his mouth and asked cautiously:

"Are you sure it's in this direction? Maybe you remembered the wrong location?"

"No, right there."

Kasa shook her head, her eyes full of determination.

In the dark underground world, Kassadin may have forgotten the passage of time, forgotten what the sun in the outside world looks like, and even some memories of her childhood have become gradually blurred...

But she will never forget where her home is.

"From here, there is a large area, which is the tribe I once belonged to. And my small village is right here. I will definitely not remember it wrong."

Kassa took a deep breath and finally started walking again.

She knew that there might be nothing left of her former home, and even if she found the location of the village, all she would see would probably be desolation.

But she still wanted to go back and take a look.

Even just a glance would be enough.

Looking at Kassa's slow but firm steps, Zhang Xu followed behind helplessly:

"Be careful. Although I didn't see any traces of void creatures, we still need to be careful."

Kassa walked to a pile of rubble and slowly squatted down.

The pair of lavender eyes quickly noticed a mark on the ground, and the hand subconsciously reached out and placed it on the mark, where it was no longer clear what was drawn, and gently rubbed it.

This trace...

Kasa thought of her father.

Her father was a caravan guide, so he often led the caravan through the harsh desert environment to every corner of the continent.

Every time she came back, her father would bring her a lot of new and interesting gadgets from outside.

On her eighth birthday, her father gave her an exquisite dagger.

It was a finely crafted dagger produced by Piltover. Although she didn't know where Piltover was, she knew that the dagger must be very valuable.

In remote tribes like the southern desert, all the children looked at this finely crafted dagger with envy.

Kaisa remembers being very proud.

At that time, the thing she did most was to carry this dagger and show it off in front of her friends.

Later, a friend whose appearance he had long forgotten made a suggestion.

They used this exquisite dagger to carve their names outside the village gate.

Too much time has passed...

It's so old that these names are now nothing but scratches with unrecognizable contents.

And these remaining scratches will completely disappear in this lost land as time goes by.

Realizing that Zhang Xu had walked up to her, Kasa came back to her senses and her expression returned to normal.

"Let's go, my home is a little further ahead."

Looking in the direction of Kasa's finger, Zhang Xu's expression changed slightly.

He actually saw a figure in that direction!

Another void creature?

What really surprised Zhang Xu was not the sudden appearance of the void creature. He was surprised that he had not noticed this void creature just now!

His eyes underwent a qualitative change after he acquired the power from the virtual spirit.

Even in the darkness without any light, he could clearly see everything around him.

At the same time, you can see things farther away and capture details that ordinary people find difficult to notice.

But just now, he did not notice this void creature.

This void creature...seems to have appeared out of thin air!

And the strangest thing is that even Kassadin himself did not receive any warning.

The Void Skin Armor that coexists with Kaisa can send a warning to Kaisa the moment it discovers a void creature, allowing Kaisa to develop an instinct that is almost like that of a hunter.

But this time, Kassa didn't notice anything at all!

The void creature in front seems a little weird...

Zhang Xu grabbed Kassa, who also looked stunned, and winked at her.

The perfect cooperation over the past few days allowed Kassa to instantly understand Zhang Xu's intentions.

The void creature, whose face could not be seen clearly at the moment, did not seem to have noticed them.

If you make any noise rashly, you might wake it up!

After a brief eye contact, Kassa made a judgment.

Kill it!

Kill this void creature!

When she was young, she was powerless to stop the void from swallowing her. She could only watch her home fall and she was dragged into the underground world.

But now, even though her home has become a ruin, she still wants to protect it!
