Legends of Runeterra

The Void believers had been secretly stalking them since they entered the ruins. They had originally planned to kill them, but unexpectedly they discovered an excellent Void carrier, whose adaptability was almost comparable to that of the 'prophet'.

As long as the other party takes this 'egg' and it hatches successfully, the void will bestow it with more blessings, and even bring it into the embrace of the void - into the dimension where the void exists!

Thinking of this, the Void believers' tentacles began to tremble slightly with excitement.

Looking at the struggling boy in front of it, it was full of confidence.

It was born from a human body. Although it does not possess anything of its own, it understands human emotions and knows the subtle atmosphere between Li En and Samira.

Now that Samira is held hostage, it is difficult for a human teenager of this age to cause any more trouble.

Either the other party is a 'qualified person' with very strong mental resistance, and the 'egg' requires the other party to give up resistance before it can be successfully implanted, otherwise it would have been forcibly implanted into the other party's body.

...

"System, scan this thing!"

"Ding! Scanning...Scan completed!"

-----------------

【Name】Void Egg

【grade】?

[Evaluation] Swallow this, and the void will bless you, and you will be exposed to extremely high-level power. At the same time, a brand new you that belongs to the void will be nurtured in your body, and when the time is right, he will replace you and become Li En!

-----------------

"Fuck, isn't this just taking over someone else's body? Help me, System Boss!"

Li En looked at Samira and the other person who were held hostage by the infected. Even if he could escape, Samira and Safet would be doomed.

Moreover, it is obvious that we are being targeted by the other party now. Without being sure whether the other party has other people in secret, we can only run for a while, and we will be caught up by the other party sooner or later.

"Ding! Checking... Check completed! The host can accept it. The talent [Survival of the Fittest] can help the host fight against the erosion of the void!"

“Is this talent so strong?”

"Ding! System calculation, no problem! However, during the adaptation period, the host's body will continue to be damaged, and the strength will be reduced to a certain extent!"

“These are all minor issues!”

Li En's heart was very hot. Think about what was eroded by the void before - the Ascendants! These beings are guaranteed to be legendary, the strongest beings with the combat power of demigods!

Even such an existence could not withstand the erosion of the void, and eventually turned into a darkspawn after a series of calculations.

And now that his talent [Survival of the Fittest] can counter the void, to be honest, Li En has the urge to just lie down, find a place to hide, and let [Survival of the Fittest] take him flying.

It’s a pity that the Rune Continent is full of disasters, and Li En, who has great late-stage talent, does not have the time to develop.

In any other world, Li En would be able to fly happily and directly transform into "I don't eat beef".

...

"How? Have you thought about it?"

A few minutes later, the Void believer asked.

"I...Okay, I agree! But you have to let them go first!"

Li En did his best to portray an angry, unwilling and helpless teenager.

"of course can!"

The Void believers let out a roar, and the infected let go of the two.

Samira and the other girl, who had already regained their ability to move, turned around immediately and exclaimed when they saw Li En standing next to the Void believer.

"Leen!"

"grown ups!"

"Don't worry, I'm fine! You guys go back first, I...I have some things to do with this gentleman, I will go back to Uzeris on my own after I finish!"

"But..."

"Okay, trust me, okay? Don't waste my kindness!"

Listening to these farewell-like words, Samira felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife. It was clearly her fault for recommending the Bianca ruins to Li En, which led to encountering this strange existence.

Obviously, he just wanted to have a wonderful night and not have any regrets, but Li En, this naive and somewhat foolish noble, was willing to sacrifice his life for him.

What do you mean by 'something to deal with'? Such a weird and inhuman existence, is he inviting people to afternoon tea?

Tears blurred Samira's vision, and her breathing trembled slightly. She was overwhelmed by the feeling of powerlessness and dejection. The desire for power in her heart reached its peak at this moment.

...

In the end, Samira and Safet left. Without looking back, they ran towards Uzeris as fast as they could.

"please!"

"How do I use it?"

"Stick it to your forehead!"

Li En held the [Void Egg], which was the size of a pigeon egg, felt hot and slightly bouncy.

Take a deep breath and do as the Void Follower says.

[Void Egg] melted instantly and penetrated into Li En's body.

Along with a slight tingling sensation, Li En suddenly heard noisy voices in his ears, which became louder and louder!

My head feels like it’s going to explode and my brain feels like it’s being turned into a paste by this sound!

"Ahhh!"

Li En covered his ears and screamed in pain.

Maybe it's a minute, maybe a whole day, or even longer.

Suddenly, the sound disappeared in an instant, and before he could catch his breath, it was as if a piece of burning charcoal was stuffed into his left eye. The intense pain made him feel as if his eye was about to explode.

"Puch~!"

A warm and sticky liquid flowed out from between the fingers covering the eyes and quickly dried up in the breeze.

Li En was shocked and almost reached his limit, and then he fainted.

-----------------

Li En slowly woke up and looked at the familiar giant rock. His sweat-soaked clothes and the cool environment made his limbs slightly stiff.

"Is this...back to the ruins again? Oh, right! My eyes!" Li En sat up suddenly, "No! Why is it that my left eye is fine, but my right eye can't see!"

Pulling out the dagger from his waist, Li En was shocked to find that the pupil of his left eye had turned into a void purple, while his right eye was still black. It was only because there was no light around that Li En had the illusion of blindness.

After taking another look at the face and checking the body, Li En breathed a sigh of relief after finding that no horrible deformation had occurred.

"You're awake. You merged very quickly!"

"It's good, I'm not dead yet!"

Li En responded perfunctorily, but was slightly stunned when he saw the Void believers.

"Are you surprised by my appearance?"

The purple-white, spiked maggot twisted its body slightly, and its lamprey-like mouthparts made a hoarse sound.

"One thing, are we the only ones here? Where are the other companions?"

"I'm the only one here right now. The sect originally asked me to come here to set up a node. Now that I have you, I don't have to worry about such boring things anymore!"

The Void believers easily revealed their mission, not for any other reason. No matter how much they hated the Void before, once they were transformed by the Void, they would worship the Void as a god!

Li En looked at the other person's twisting body. From the perspective of the Eye of the Void, he could clearly see the slightly glowing light spot in the middle of the other person's body.

All of the other person's energy was gathered there, and there was a strong desire in his eyes.

Li En scratched his chin and asked curiously, "What is the light spot in your body? It seems to attract me!"

"That's my [Void Core], which is full of void energy. You have just fused the 'egg' and need enough nutrition! When we return to Icathia, there will be enough energy there to allow you to become your true self!"

"So that means that's the vital point, and if you lose the energy, you'll die?"

"Yes, after you form the [Void Core], remember to protect it!"

"Okay, thanks for the reminder, can you let me take a closer look?"

The Void Believer twisted his body, but finally agreed to Li En's request.

The laws of the void are engraved into their souls. Unless they are facing a strong enemy and need to replenish the energy of a powerful individual, or their companions have died and need to recycle their bodies, they have no intention of attacking other creatures of the void.

So even though Li En's request was a little strange, it still agreed.
