he came from the void

It is said that offense is the best defense. On the other hand, when you are attacking, your defense is the weakest.

Kahn picked this moment, taking advantage of Vel'Koz's thought that he had hit him, he used the lock to escape into the void to forcibly escape, passing through the cracking ray and appearing behind Vel'Koz.

Like Vel'Koz's penchant for sticking tentacles into his victims' eyes, Karn returned the favor, burying his arm blade deep into Vel'Koz's eyes.

It felt like putting his hand into a furnace filled with red-hot molten iron. Kahn's arm was burned by the crazy electric shock, and there was an extremely severe burning pain.

His attack made Vel'Koz violently twitch, struggling and writhing, stretching three tentacles towards Karn.He reluctantly stirred the arm blade vigorously until he felt that his arm no longer belonged to him. The twitching Vel'Koz finally stopped struggling and fell to the ground completely dead.

Vel'Koz's huge body fell on the open space, and the swollen eyeballs seemed to have lost their adhesion to the broken shell. After being impacted by the landing, they fell off and rolled to the side, and the highlights on the edges of the pupils gradually dimmed.

Kai'Sa immediately leaned over, and after some inspection, it was confirmed that Vel'Koz was dead.Through the wound caused by Kahn, it can be seen that the real core contained behind the pupil has been completely destroyed.

"It's dead."

Hearing the sound of Kahn landing, Kaisha said with lingering fear.She saw Kahn's desperate fight this time, and in an extremely thrilling battle, if she made a wrong step, she would be doomed.

"Cough cough, cough cough..." Kahn's abnormal cough made Kaisa turn her head, and she saw that the armor covering Kahn's arm buried deep in Vel'Koz's eyes had been corroded into a piece of scorched black. It crumbles into powder at the slightest touch.

"Inside too..." Kaisha hesitated to speak, a strong sense of suffocation enveloped her, making her unable to stand still.

"The inside has been eroded." Kahn smiled wryly. He didn't expect such a result. Although he killed Vel'Koz, the skin armor on his right arm was also corrupted because it was soaked in its blood, and the void energy invaded the body.

This erosion is very rapid, and the black blood vessels have spread to the neck, which is almost hopeless.

"It's okay, it's just a matter of killing it again." Kahn comforted her, and then took out the Z-drive again, biting the switch with his mouth and pulling it away forcefully.

Back in time before Vel'Koz was killed, Kahn once again rushed towards Vel'Koz brazenly, tricked it without accident, appeared behind it, slashed open its carapace like a storm, and then used his initial The weapon—a bone spur, pierced into Vel'Koz's body.

The length of the bone spur was a bit longer than the arm blade, but more importantly, Kahn found the right position this time, and accurately pierced the bone spur into Vel'Koz's core.

This made it die more quickly, and it died after a few struggles.

Without the support of energy, the huge body crashed down, setting off a gust of wind.

"What are we going to do with this thing? We don't really have to cut it into pieces with a knife, do we?" Kai'Sa leaned over and asked, pointing at Vel'Koz's body.He had heard Kahn say that he would dissect Vel'Koz before, but now he wondered if it was true.

"Just treat it as an ordinary void creature, and do whatever you want."

Kahn had long thought about how to deal with Vel'Koz, that is, devour it, and analyze its structure through devouring.

……

In a hidden cave in Tokugul, Karn finally devoured Vel'Koz.

Because they were worried about being disturbed by the local aborigines or Noxus soldiers on the border who saw the movement, they dragged the corpse into the cave and began to devour it.

This step was very prescient. It took a long time to devour Vel'Koz, during which time both groups had visited the ruins of the outpost.The defenders sent by the Turkugul camp were very angry and sad after seeing the scene, thinking that Noxus was testing biological and chemical weapons on them.

In devouring Vel'Koz, Karn discovered something special about it.

Its intelligence is not produced by constantly devouring flesh and blood like other void creatures, accumulating small amounts into large amounts, and causing qualitative changes through quantitative changes.Moreover, it devours flesh and blood just to survive, not to eat.

Kahn discovered that from the moment it was born, it possessed not weak intelligence.This is like the monitors. Before this group of behemoths invaded Runeterra, they were already a huge spirit body floating in the boundless void.When they later invaded Runeterra, the consciousness body and the material of Runeterra produced and reacted violently, creating their current bodies.

Vel'Koz is just like the Watchers, having a consciousness first and then a body.

Therefore, there are only two possibilities for the source of its intelligence.

Either it was born from a small part of the Watcher's own consciousness split off.Or it was originally a monitor, but because it hadn't grown up yet and was too small compared to its kind, it was transformed into a void creation by them and thrown to the other end of the void, the base of the material world.

Vel'Koz's is special in that it can perform many tasks that other voidcraft cannot.

For the Overseer, its greatest role is to monitor the rise, ossification, and decline of various civilizations in Runeterra, and provide them with a channel to learn and understand the enemy.

"How's it going?" In the cave, Kai'Sa, who came back from the wind, saw that Kahn had opened his eyes, and hurriedly asked how it was going.

"I found the weakness of Vel'Koz and the Overseers." Kahn got up and said.

Kai'Sa didn't understand what Karn meant at first, and she didn't quite understand the connection between Vel'Koz and the Watchers. "Didn't you already find it? You pierced Vel'Koz's heart, that's why you killed it."

"That's different. That inner core shouldn't be called the heart. That thing carries Vel'Koz's memories and thoughts, and is where his consciousness is stored. It should be called the brain."

With a rigorous attitude, Kahn called the part that provides energy the heart, and the part used for thinking the brain, in order to better distinguish Vel'Koz from other void creatures.

"and then?"

"As long as they hurt there, their consciousness will collapse. Although the will of the void is immortal, this can make these conscious bodies return to the state of chaos and nothingness. Simply put, it is to let them roll back to the void and sleep. .”

"Anything is fine, anyway, that's their weakness, right?" Kai'Sa squeezed her chin, inadvertently showing a thoughtful look: "The Eternal Flame has been proven to be unworkable, we have to find a way to find a weapon that can threaten surveillance." The weaker weapon will do."

Chapter 693 Void Wormhole

The Overseer is as large as a mountain, and to threaten their weakness, this weapon needs to be not only sharp, but also large enough.

When it comes to giant weapons, the first thing Kai'Sa thinks of is the God Warrior.

But this idea was rejected by Kai'Sa as soon as it came out, because even the Celestial Warrior in the ascension posture pales in comparison to the Monitor.

As for why magic is not used, because void creatures can also absorb nutrients from magic. If it is not used properly, it is like giving the watcher a strong dose of medicine, which will only have the opposite effect.

If it is the pure elemental power of the world rune, it may be able to cause the most direct damage to the monitor.

"Where do we have to go to find a giant weapon capable of killing the Overseer and its user?" Kai'Sa felt stuck in a predicament of thinking and couldn't get out.

"Isn't there in the Freljord? There are the best blacksmiths and the most fearless fighters in the world." Karn said.

"Who?" Kaisha thought for a long time but didn't know who it was. Suddenly, she realized that Kahn was not referring to people, but gods. "You're not talking about Ornn and Volibear, are you?"

"Hmm, it's these two great gods."

After Kahn was affirmed, Kai'Sa couldn't help but think of some legends about them: "Aren't these two on good terms? Volibear asked Aoun to help him build armor to go to war, but Aoun refused, and then the two brothers died. Fighting, the battle spread to Furnace, destroying the top of Furnace Mountain. Since that incident, Ornn has not been seen again, and Volibear has taken off his armor, only in the original wild and pure instinct to fight."

"Yeah, the conflict between them is really deep. But there is no rush. It is not easy to make weapons or talk to these two ancient gods. Let's go back to Lissandra and discuss it in the long run. Maybe she has something any solution."

"I hope they can let go of their prejudices in the face of right and wrong." Kai'Sa prayed.I just heard Kahn continue to say: "Besides, killing the watcher is not the end of the matter. We have to find a way to close the passage between the two worlds, and finally we will slowly purify the pollution left by the void."

"Listen to you, go back to the Freljord first and then talk slowly." Kai'Sa turned and walked out of the cave, but was immediately held by Kahn's arm.

"Where are you going?"

"Get out of here, aren't we going to the Freljord?" Kai'Sa asked back.

"Do you still want to go back again?" Facing Kahn's suspicious gaze, Kaisha replied naturally: "Leave here and go to the nearest village first. There are horses and horses, cars and cars, and boats and boats."

"No, you just wait here for me to take you there."

"Ok?"

Kaisha didn't know what Kahn was going to do again, she folded her arms and waited patiently, only to see Kahn stretching out his hand to grab something in front of him, his right arm was trembling due to the force, suddenly a dazzling light appeared from his palm. Electric arcs, these arcs instantly penetrated the air, forming an ever-expanding cavity, which seemed to open an abyss leading to the void.

This void that appeared out of thin air continued to expand until it was large enough to allow a person to pass through, and then stopped spreading. The edges that glowed like a liquid surface ebbed and flowed, indicating that the void was resisting the pressure of the world barrier.

Kai'Sa quickly realized that this was Karn's new ability after devouring Vel'Koz, and she was no longer surprised by it.

"This... Is it okay for us to go in?" She wondered.

"It shouldn't be a problem for us to cover the void skin armor to go in, but we don't know if it is another unprotected creature." Kahn looked at his five fingers. The first time he used the wormhole made his right hand tremble. The electric current seems to be constantly stimulating his nerves.

Seeing his strange appearance, Kaisha turned to ask with concern: "Are you alright?"

"It's okay, it's just a little cramp, just twist it and it'll be fine." Kahn said while breaking his hands, stretching himself could make him feel more comfortable. "By the way, let's go in quickly, the wormhole can't last long."

"Wait, I want to try."

"Try what?" This time it was Kahn's turn to wonder.

"I want to know what happened to the creatures other than us that strayed into the wormhole." She said, turned her head and looked around, walked to the grass a few steps away and grabbed a small frog.

Kaisha came to the wormhole with the frog's hind legs, and said to Kahn, "Is it okay if I throw it in?"

"..." Kahn hesitated to speak, but finally did not stop: "Throw it away, what's the problem?"

Seeing that he agreed, Kai'Sa threw the frog into the wormhole.The moment he let go, the frog escaped gravity and flew straight into the depths of the wormhole, as if being sucked in.The distance seemed to be stretched extremely far, and Kai'Sa couldn't see the frog for a moment.

"Let's go in too." As he said, Kahn demonstrated and entered the wormhole first.

By the time they got down to earth again, the ground under their feet had changed from green grass to white snow.

At this moment, they were standing on a snow-capped mountain. There was heavy snow falling in the sky, and the cold wind whizzed past the top of the mountain.With such a cold environment, there is no doubt that they have come to the Freljord.

The wormhole closed and disappeared behind them, making a buzzing electrical sound.

Kaisha took out her pocket watch to check the time, and sighed in disbelief: "I can't believe that we went from one end of the world to the other in the blink of an eye."

"This is like a god-like power. There is no teleportation magic that can move such a long distance so accurately and quickly."

The power of the void once again shocked Kahn. He had seen Ryze's zigzag path and Lissandra's portal, but none of them were as convenient as wormholes.Either the distance is short, or it is troublesome to prepare in advance, or the position is already fixed.

"In the future, we can go wherever we want, and distance is no longer a problem."

Kaisha thought happily, for example, she will sit in front of the fire in the Freljord for dinner today, eating seafood from Bilgewater, drinking mead from Shurima, and dessert of Io Nia's sweet cakes.

It's a pity that only the two of them can go through this wormhole, and they can't take others with them. If she wants to have dinner with her father, she still has to go back to the small valley in Shurima.

"By the way, where's the frog?" Kai'Sa suddenly remembered.

"Let me look for it." Kahn blinked, scanned the surroundings with void vision, and then swept away the snow at his feet, and took out the frog that had been frozen into an ice sculpture.

I also want to know that this kind of temperature-changing animal with high water content in the body cannot maintain a constant temperature in the body. Of course, the Freljord has to be frozen quickly when it is below zero.

Kaisha took the frozen frog from Karn's hand and observed it carefully, and immediately noticed some changes in it.

(

Chapter 694 Emergency Alert

Although the frog has turned into an ice sculpture, through the ice crystals, it can be seen that its skin has turned purple after being eroded, and the skin is also covered with sharp protrusions. The original smooth appearance has become angular.

However, even with the changes, it still failed to withstand the severe cold.

"Poor little guy, it's impossible to send you back." Just as Kaisha put down the frog, Kahn stomped it to pieces. She closed her eyes and didn't see what happened to it.

Although the frog just fell into a deep sleep and did not die, how could the eroded creature let it return to nature, and it was impossible for Kahn to open a wormhole and throw it back.

"Let's go, it's just a frog, we should go to Frostguard Fortress." Saying that, Kahn took out the black ice pendant and let the one-eyed guide the direction.

After that, they followed the rugged mountain road and came to the Frostguard Fortress again.

The steeples of Frostguard Fortress rose from the ice field.The magical aurora is a riot of colour, with waves of green, pink and blue dancing across the almost nightly sky.The stars here are always twinkling through the coldest and cleanest air.

The night sky here is still so beautiful, but the wound here is also the most secretive.

The guards at the city gate knew them and let them in directly after meeting them.Walking on the long and wide stairs, Kahn felt a strange feeling deep in his heart.

"I always feel weird here." Kai'Sa said suddenly.

"You feel it too?" Kahn looked at her in surprise.Under the cold ice, he heard some kind of rustling sound, like talking in sleep, or chewing.

"Yeah." Kai'Sa looked at the high battlements and said, "The number of people patrolling the city walls has decreased a lot. Was Lissandra assassinated or sent someone out to fight?"

"I don't know." Kahn shook his head: "But it shouldn't be Lissandra being assassinated, so we should strengthen our defenses. We came a bit late, Lissandra should be asleep, and we will go to her when she wakes up tomorrow."

They returned to the minaret where they lived before. Kaisha and Kahn were walking and chatting. When they opened the door, they unexpectedly found that the ice-born female warrior Hara Hanbingo was also inside the tower.

"Hara?" Kaisha greeted immediately after closing the door: "I didn't expect you to still live here after we left."

Hara gave her a surprised look, because it sounded weird, as if she lived here to spy on them.

"When did you get back?" she asked.

"Just arrived." Kai'Sa said with a smile: "We were still discussing the previous bedding and didn't keep it for us."

"They're all here, no one touched them." Hara walked to the hanger, then tore off his cloak and hung it up.Kaisha noticed that her movements were a little rough, and when she turned sideways, what Kaisha saw made her gasp.

"Your hand...what's wrong?" Kaisha realized that one of Hara's sleeves was empty, and one arm was missing from the last meeting.

"It was cut off." Hara replied calmly, as if a broken arm was as insignificant as being cut off.

"Who cut it off? Did you fight someone else?"

Hala shook his head and said, "There was no war, I was the one who cut it down."

"This..." Kai'Sa didn't know what to say, and the matter seemed much more complicated than she imagined.

"Some things happened while you were away." Hara lowered his head, holding the wound of his severed arm with his right hand, and looked at his only remaining Ice Ax with a heavy expression, which was originally a pair of mandarin duck axes.She said: "The seal, melted, and what lives below is throbbing."

It turned out that when Kaisha and the others left, Hara was selected by the church as a member of the annual expedition to go to the bottom of the abyss to check the status of the seal.

She is partnered with an old hero, Olar Stonefist, who has nine expeditions, and a recruit, Sigvar Half Arrow, who has no experience.And Halla himself was sandwiched between them, with no more than three experiences.Because the ice blood is stronger in women, Hara became the captain of this expedition.

They climbed all the way down, arrived at the destination without any risk, and came to the Hall of Nine Gods without casualties.But when they were checking the seal, they were attacked by black tentacles coming out of the ice, and Stonefist was killed by the tentacles in order to save them.
