Two Cities, I build mecha in Picheng

Chapter 161 The beating Void Stone

The Valley of Songs is located in the mountains in the southeast of Shurima.

In this remote mountain road, there are many hollow rocks formed for unknown reasons.

When the desert heat waves during the day and the strong wind howling at night blow, these rocks will make a choking sound, hence the name.

But remoteness is not a good thing, especially in such an extremely harsh environment, one should never trust humanity too much.

According to Kassadin, travelers who trek in the Valley of Songs need to be particularly careful, especially at night.

Although there are no gangs of robbers like Dasai, there are still quite a few robbers in groups of twos and threes.

It's just that, because they roamed such places all year round, most of them have long been deaf in both ears, and a small number of them have also suffered severe hearing loss.

Therefore, as long as there is no open fire at night and you hide in a remote place, the probability of encountering robbers will not be too high.

Of course, these are not problems for Li Lin, Kassadin and Sivir.

The mountain road was rugged, and the three of them left Scarash and the camel at the Suyin Bazaar, and each of them took the necessary basic materials and set off on the road.

When passing through the middle part of the most noisy part of Songgu Valley, the three of them put on earplugs in advance, and there was almost no communication along the way.

It took three or four full days before they finally arrived at the outskirts of Kassadin's original village.

"Since my village was swallowed by the void, there are not many robbers left on this road." Kassadin looked at the towering black stone pillars in the distance, and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.

Since the bedrock of the earth was torn apart by the void and the village sank underground, these twisted stone pillars have become the iconic landmarks of this place.

After almost three years, the place has been completely swallowed by yellow sand, leaving no trace of the original ruins.

Li Lin and Sivir remained silent, standing two steps behind Kassadin.

Listening to his rather sad tone, I don't know what to say.

"Okay, now we're going to face those corrupted and twisted monsters, are you ready?"

Kassadin left all the supplies he was carrying in the camp.

It would be bad if the water and dry food without any protection were polluted by the space in that area.

Although Chenguang also has supplies that can feed and drink three people for almost a month...

Sivir took off the Charikal on his back, "What are you prepared for? When you meet those monsters, just kill them right away? Fighting is commonplace for me."

Li Lin glanced at her, "Then can you withstand the erosion of the void?"

She subconsciously touched the emerald green barrier pendant Nasus gave her, "Uh... if you have this, it should be fine, right?"

"It can only resist magic, but the power of the void is not magic."

"How do you even know this?" Sivir raised her head slightly, surprised by Li Lin's words.

"I've said it many times, read more books, and you will be as knowledgeable as I am."

"It's also recorded in the book?"

Sivir had an unbelievable expression, but Li Lin didn't speak anymore, and just sorted out the supplies carried in Chenguang by himself.

Why do I always have the urge to hit someone...

She glanced at the power armor on Li Lin, clenched her fist, and gave up the bold idea in her mind.

Forget it, I don't know your general knowledge.

Just as Sivir was thinking, Li Lin took out a suitcase from the morning light and handed it to her, "Put this on."

"Your power armor is not suitable for me." Sivir shook his head and declined politely, "It's too big."

Li Lin forced the foldable power armor into her hand, "We don't even know what's going on underground, protection is better than nothing."

After thinking about it for a while, Sivir still took the suitcase and put on the power armor with Li Lin's help.

Immediately afterwards, Kassadin hid the supplies in a secret place, with only a little dry food and two water bottles on him.

However, what attracted the attention of Li Lin and Sivir was the exquisite small box engraved with mysterious runes in his hand.

Kassadin showed it to Azir when he was in the City of the Sun, and it contained a void stone, which could prevent corruption and erosion when entering the void.

"Azir said before that as long as it doesn't touch the core area of ​​the void fissure, it won't be corroded immediately when it comes into contact with the void."

He looked at Li Lin and Sivir, and raised the small box in his hand, "I don't know how big the protection range of this stone is, we can try it in the outer area first, if it can only protect me, you don't want to protect me." It goes too deep."

Both of them nodded at the same time, agreeing with Kassadin's point of view.

Afterwards, Kassadin directly opened the box, and a small stone with a purple-black light and uneven surface appeared in front of them.

At the same time, the mouths of the three of them had a rancid taste of metal, and there was a faint atmosphere of ancient magic in the air.

As Kassadin took the stone out of the sealed box, an unexplained chill swept over his body.

This kind of trembling feeling from the depths of the soul, even Kassadin had never experienced those ferocious man-eating monsters in the desert.

Sivir stared at the Void Stone, and suddenly felt as if her gaze had sunk deeply into it, forcing her to quickly look away.

"This thing gives me a weird feeling..." She gasped and said with lingering fear.

Fortunately, this is a magic item, and the emerald green barrier Nasus gave her has blocked most of the effects.

So her feeling is not as strong as that of Li Lin and Kassadin.

Especially for Kassadin.

Time passed minute by minute.

After he first came into contact with this void stone, time seemed to be infinitely stretched, stagnating at this moment.

This feeling came and went quickly, and after just a few seconds, Kassadin returned to normal.

But at this moment, the Void Stone was already throbbing, along with his heartbeat, as if it had become a part of him.

Sivir glanced worriedly at the purple-black stone in Kassadin's hand, then quickly looked away, "Is this... normal?"

Of course not normal...

But it won't affect Kassadin for years to come.

Li Lin shook his head and said silently in his heart.

"It doesn't matter, I just hope that it will allow me to kill more void monsters before it completely devours me, as well as that 'Void Prophet' Malzahar." Kassadin's voice did not contain any emotion.

"..."

Sivir opened his mouth, but still could not utter a word.

Comforting people this kind of thing...

It's good that she doesn't make others more sad and angry.

"Okay, judging from the current situation, the Nether Stone can cover a wide range, at least a few meters. If it is closer to me, it should also protect you from being eroded by the void."

Kassadin paused, and looked sideways in the direction of his home again, "Now...it's time to escape into the void."
