He Comes From the Void

Chapter 23: Hunter

   The ugly prototype gradually took shape, the pale substance became transparent, revealing the huge skeleton in it, and the amniotic fluid-like membrane bubble shrank and wrapped tightly on the surface of the skeleton, slowly turning black and hardening into a black fascia.

   The claws popped out, and the fangs appeared. A void heart lit up the empty shell, and the hollow eye sockets flashed with purple malice, making it a deadly hunter.

   Black Flame's tentacles put down the monster and retracted into the abyss, the hunter roared with hunger, and the abyss behind him stretched out several tentacles again, grabbing the surviving goat from the ruins and began to transform.

   At the same time, countless eyes emerged from the abyss, and phantom spirits were descending on this world.

  The predator looks like a tiger bone covered only by a membrane, but the spine is short, with only a chest cavity and no abdominal cavity. It is empty and only wrapped with a heart, and only the limbs have unusually strong muscles.

   It is against the legendary devilish sheep head, and two rows of densely combed needles, each of which is enough to nail through the bone. The translucent film showed a vicious purple light, and he bent his forelimbs closer to Keisha.

   "Is this the same goat before?"

   Keisha's teeth trembled, and the behemoth with twice her shoulder height in front of her made her feel fear instinctively.

   But Kesha is not a little girl who can't walk because of fear.

   As she backed away, she raised her hand to summon a fist blade.

   The tip of the fist blade aimed at the hunter's chest at an elevation angle, and the gleaming pulsating heart was beating in it, and waves of evil light surged through the ribs.

   The purple plasma bomb pierced the dim space, and the plasma tore the fascia, but it was re-stitched in a light woven net and became harder than before.

   "Is this the reason why the ascenders who have been eroded by the void all have blood magic?"

   Seeing here, Kane realized that he must never fight these hunters in a place where Ethereals are crowded, otherwise it will absorb the flesh and blood of nearby weak creatures. Not only can it not die, but it also gets stronger.

   seemed to prove Kane's guess, the monster noticed the goat at his feet.

   The thick claws easily peeled off the boulder, leaned over and swallowed it in one bite. The flesh, muscles and bones were corrupted by the void energy into a weird slurry, which became a part of the hunter and strengthened its torso.

  The strange land in front of her shocked Kesha's three views. The void monster turned into a goat actually ate another goat, which was something she could not imagine.

   The tentacles in the abyss turned other live sheep into huge hunters, and the Ethereal Insect swarms climbed onto the shore, and flocked among the ruins to eat the corpses of goats.

   Wherever they reach, there is a daunting stench, with sharp teeth tearing the knots, the carapace is absorbing splashing blood, and even the bones are not let go.

   Keisha began to understand the nature of the void.

   The scene before her reminded her of the scene where the Kimi group hunted and killed Skarlosh. Although she was crying for the death of the meek beast, she would not hate the hunter for it.

   Animals on the ground are fighting because of hunger, not evil; the reason for the killing of void creatures is purely because you are a living creature.

   Void is the uncompromising enemy of all creatures!

   The carapace mask came down, covering Kesha's face.

   She hurried to Kane's side and said, "Sorry, our lamb feast has soured..."

   Keisha is very unwilling to give up, although the mask will swallow her tears, but now she seldom cries.

   To her surprise, Kane could understand her distorted pronunciation, or guess what she said directly.

   "What other lamb feast do you want, it's important to escape!"

   Kane watched the approaching hunters prancing on the ruins, each step spanning more than ten steps of his short legs, so anxious that he knocked down Keisha's helmet hard.

   Keisha bent her knees and lifted Kane on her back, and the armor pieces from her legs bounced away, limiting the speed at which the horror erupted, and fleeing the abyss.

   She ran up the slope, and the air was squeezed away in front of her, forming a purple hemispherical gas mask and rushing into the tunnel, dragging a long glimpse behind her.

   Those hunters were stretched far away in a few breaths, and even Kane’s web of consciousness could not even notice.

   After running for a few minutes, Keisha's speed gradually slowed down. The long sprint would overheat her body, as if she was in a high-temperature oven.

   Void Skin Armor is not a panacea. Although most of the heat can be absorbed by the second skin through sweat, if the remaining small part of the heat is not discharged in time, it may still burn her internal organs.

   "Don't goats eat grass? Why did they become such a ferocious hunter..." Kesha couldn't help but be puzzled, and asked as she ran.

   "I taught you that being infused with void energy that far exceeds the limit of the physical body will make the creature lose consciousness instantly, and the body will be dominated by the void transformation. Not to mention the habits, even the gender is gone."

   Kane patted Keisha on the shoulder and asked her to pay attention to his next words: "But these are not the main points now. The main point is that I discovered the relationship between the sacrifice of living animals and the abyss."

   "What is it?" Keisha looked surprised, and part of her mind was thinking about how to make mutton better. Those small details are hard to relate to a little girl who notices.

   The growth environment has a great influence on a person. The education Kesha received did not develop her logical thinking.

   "The goats did not accidentally fall on the edge of the abyss, but because the cultists deliberately chose the place of sacrifice on the top of the abyss."

   Kane mentioned that, Kesha was also impressed. She began to think about this idea, the more she thought about it, the more she thought it was possible.

   "It seems like this... The first abyss we saw, the dome also broke a closed sinkhole... Ah! I know-those people are paying tribute to the void and using live bait to lead out monsters on the other side of the abyss."

   Man-made monsters caused the end of the natural disaster. The evil degree of this cult is far beyond Kesha's imagination. Fortunately, she thought before that those cult members were really sacrificing to help them in exchange for peace.

   This kind of crazy behavior can only be done by ball rapes! Spurned! tui~

   Kane looked up, his eyes seemed to pass through the layers of the earth, and he saw the precarious world on the ground.

   People dance under the crescent moon and tie animals to piles... They don't know what they have to face. Their intention is to get rid of monsters, but everything they do is ringing the bells for cooking.

   "You are right, Keisha."

   "The cult uses this method to increase the power of the void. If the number of void creatures in the ground increases to a certain level, they will spread upward and get closer and closer to the surface."

   "In the end, they will be attracted by the people on the ground, and they will break out of the ground to swallow scattered villages and even towns in the desert."

   "Repeat the same mistakes."
