LOL: Let me touch your steel

Seeing the ground hernia seemed to prove that the two of them had indeed left the underground cave world and were very close to the surface. As long as they continued to move up along this high slope, they should be able to reach the surface soon.

Of course, the outside world is now completely shrouded in darkness, swallowed by the void and becoming a part of it.

In the past, all residents of the villages would die without exception.

They had to travel a long distance above the surface before they could reach the entrance to the real void.

"This thing should be a hernia. It has existed since the ancient Shurima period. Icathia probably wanted to use it to borrow the power of the void to complete her armed uprising, but she didn't expect it to be a move to invite a wolf into the house. The void invaded the surface from the underground world and eroded this land. The hernia also became the proof that the void broke out of the ground."

Hearing this, Kassa was slightly stunned.

Is this how the invasion of the void begins?

Although she was somewhat surprised by this matter, Kasa was even more surprised that Zhang Xu knew so much about it.

This story, which even she, a native of a corner of the Shurima continent, had never heard of, was understood so thoroughly by Zhang Xu, an outsider.

Kassa shook her head and didn't dwell on this issue anymore, but took another step forward.

The hands wrapped in the scales slowly raised up, as if wanting to touch the 'roots' in front of him.

But Zhang Xu was startled by Kasa's actions.

Even if the hernia is not so easily awakened, there is no need for me to be so bold, right?

Once the hernia is really awakened, the two of them will definitely be in trouble!

Although he had some confidence in his own strength and was able to deal with most void creatures, Zhang Xu was not arrogant enough to deal with such things.

An ancient thing like the ground hernia is definitely not something he can handle now.

Kassa's hand did not touch the 'roots', but was retracted in time.

"Since we have already seen the hernia, it proves that we are getting closer and closer to the surface, right?" Kasa muttered to herself, "It also means that the real danger is about to come."

Since the void has invaded the surface from the underground world and completed the erosion and devouring of the entire Icathia, then those void creatures that originally lived in the underground world should have invaded the surface along with the void.

The dangers existing on the surface of the earth at this moment might be far beyond her imagination.

Compared to the void spirits in the underground world, the void creatures above the surface are likely to be more powerful and more terrifying.

"Probably. If we go up a little further, we should be able to reach the surface. However, it's probably still a long way to the entrance to the void."

"Let's go on."

Kassa's expression became firm again, and the helmet appeared on her head again, covering her face and isolating her expression.

No matter what kind of threats exist on the surface, no matter how dangerous the void creatures there are, she will go to the surface!

Even if there are numerous difficulties and dangers ahead, she must find the entrance to the void land!

Leave the void and return to the outside world!

Returning to the real world from the void, fighting for the dead who were swallowed by the void, and protecting the people of Runeland from the harm of void creatures, this is the mission she gave herself!

I come back for those who can't come back!

Chapter 11 Void Team Building

"boom--"

The corpse of the void creature fell to the ground with a loud bang, raising a cloud of dust and making a low sound.

Kaisa shook her head, her attention not focused on the Void creature that had been killed.

Kasa's gaze passed through the endless shadows and looked into the distance.

After seeing the hernia, they continued to move forward for a few more days and finally returned to the surface.

And here, as expected, was shrouded in a shadow.

Almost everything from the past has turned into ruins, and it is difficult to find any hope of life.

The void creatures here are rampant everywhere.

This void creature that they were hunting together was already the twenty-fifth one that had set foot on the surface.

That may not sound like a large number, but they’ve only just begun to scratch the surface!

Although Kassadin was becoming less and less sensitive to the passage of time in the dark land of the void, she could clearly feel that it would take them no more than a day to reach the surface.

In just one day, they had encountered twenty-five void creatures.

This shows how dense the void creatures are here.

Taking advantage of the fact that no other void creatures had discovered them yet, Zhang Xu leaned against a rock wall with a worried look on his face:

"It's not a good idea to keep hunting like this! The aura of the two of us is like a light bulb in the dark in a place like this. There will always be an endless stream of spirits rushing towards us."

"It's been almost a day, and we haven't advanced very far... If this continues, we will be dragged to death here sooner or later."

Although these successive virtual spirits did not pose any threat to the two of them for the time being, and instead allowed Zhang Xu to stack steel to his heart's content, people always get tired.

If these phantom spirits continue to attack them, sooner or later they will not be able to hold on and will fall here.

Although Kasa didn't quite understand what Zhang Xu meant by the light bulb, she could guess its general meaning from the previous and subsequent sentences.

She also agreed with Zhang Xu's words.

There are simply too many void creatures here, and they will never be able to hunt them all down.

Kasa did not answer Zhang Xu because she herself did not know how to solve this problem.

There seemed to be only one road before them.

That is to do as we are doing now, killing all the way to the entrance of the void.

"Kasha."

"Hmm? Have you found any traces of void creatures again?"

Several near-perfect hunts gradually allowed Kassadin to adapt to Zhang Xu's peculiarities. Almost every time a void creature appeared, Zhang Xu would give a warning before her skin armor did.

As soon as the words fell, Kassa's face suddenly changed.

The helmet appeared on Kassadin's head almost instantly, and the armor wings behind her quickly opened. Kassadin's sight fell on a pit behind her.

A not-so-big virtual spirit silently crawled out of the pit, with a faint purple light flickering quietly on its body. Through the purple light, one could clearly see the greed and cruelty in the eyes of the virtual spirit.

If it was just a Void, Kassadin certainly wouldn't have such a horrified reaction.

The second phantom quickly climbed out of the pit. Its shell had very obvious bulges and its body was larger than the previous one.

Then, the third one... the fourth one...

"Shit... so many Hollow Spirits? What are they trying to do?"

Zhang Xu's mouth couldn't help but twitch twice.

This number of void spirits... void team building, right?

The prizes for the team-building event are two strangers, him and Kassa?

In the blink of an eye, dense swarms of phantom spirits appeared in Zhang Xu and Kassa’s sight!

One after another, purple lights intertwined and converged together, forming an evil purple ocean.

Not a ghost...

But it’s a group of virtual spirits!

The strength of any one of these void spirits is not that terrible, and they are small characters that Zhang Xu and Kaisa can easily deal with, but the problem is that the number of these void spirits is really terrifying!

"What should we do in this situation?"

Zhang Xu did not ask, but just looked at Kasa beside him.

After so many days of cooperation, Kassa instantly understood what Zhang Xu meant.

It's up to her to decide whether to fight or flee.

Kassa didn't hesitate at all and hugged Zhang Xu in her arms. The armor wings behind her flashed a strange purple light in an instant.

Spread your wings and escape!

If she still wants to hunt this number of phantom spirits, she would be a complete idiot!

The numbers are so terrifying that if we choose to stay and fight, the identities of hunter and prey will probably be reversed in an instant.

Seeing Kassadin's actions, the Void Spirits' eyes suddenly flashed with ferocity, and they rushed towards the two of them like a herd of beasts.

If she were alone, Kaisa was confident that she could avoid the pursuit of these void spirits with her high mobility.

But the problem is that there is Zhang Xu in Kassa's arms.

Although Kassadin could easily bear Zhang Xu's weight, his speed was inevitably reduced a lot.

Following this trend, the group of virtual spirits behind them will probably catch up with them soon.

Zhang Xu, who was held in Kassadin's arms, did not feel any charming atmosphere. One reason was because of the group of phantoms chasing him from behind, and the other was because of the skin armor on Kassadin's body.

The hard skin and armor made it impossible for him to have any strange thoughts.

Noticing the virtual spirit getting closer and closer behind him, Zhang Xu slowly opened his palm.

A hint of purple flashed in Zhang Xu's eyes, as if a flash of light was fleeting, and then a dazzling purple light appeared on the palm of Zhang Xu.

An explosive energy aura surged in the palm of his hand!

This surge of energy made Kassadin couldn't help but look sideways.

This energy...

It's somewhat similar to the energy released from the 'dorsal fin' of the burrowing beast before!

However, one of them was flashing an inky black light, while the light flashing on Zhang Xu's palm was lavender.

Faced with Zhang Xu's abnormality, this group of virtual spirits driven by instinct did not react at all, as if they could not feel fear. They still had murderous gleams in their eyes and swept over like a tide.

This is true of most void entities.

Once they sense the breath of the living, they will be driven by insatiable hunger, their hearts beating violently, and they will move forward endlessly.

They cannot feel fear, nor do they have any thoughts or intelligence.

They can only rely on instinct and try to devour everything they see.
