Chen Ce.
"No, I just happened to wake up..." Kasha rubbed her "sleep eyes" that were not actually sleepy, and then sat up from the rickety bed. "Well...you are really back."
"Of course, I said I would come back." Chen Ce smiled slightly, "It's just that I was delayed by some things and it was a bit late... I hope I didn't disturb your rest."
"No..." Kasha yawned forcefully again and pointed to the other side of the room. "You can sleep over there, it's cleaner there... I don't know why it's cleaner there, maybe it's just that the wind blew away the sand there."
"Okay, thank you." Chen Ce sat on the bed that had obviously been cleaned - it was still full of yellow sand this morning.
"It's nothing to be polite about, but you might not be able to sleep well tonight - there are clean hotels in the city, but you insist on coming back here... I really don't understand you."
Kasha put on an expression of helplessness and indifference, as if she wouldn't have any emotional fluctuations whether the other party came back or not.
After a moment, she asked again: "What happened to you in the city? Is it dangerous?"
"It's not dangerous, it just took me a little longer to find something." Chen Ce smiled and took out something from the bag.
"Looking for what?"
"candy."
"Ok?"
"The candy I bought for you." Chen Ce stretched out a hand, and there was a delicate candy lying in his palm. "This thing doesn't seem to be easy to buy in Shurima. I searched all over Uzeris before I found a store owned by a Noxian that sells it."
"..." Kasha was silent and did not pick up the candy she had not eaten for a long time.
At first she was surprised that the other party wasted his time for such a thing...candy and the like were not necessities of life, so why spend so much energy and time searching all over the city for them?
Secondly... this kind of thing is a very precious luxury product to her - it is expensive and not filling. Only wealthy businessmen in Shurima would buy some for their children.
The last time she had one was when her father brought one back when she was a guide for outsiders when she was a child.
The one she gave to Chen Ce before... the reason why she only had one piece of candy left in her body to eat was because she was never willing to eat it.
"It's such a waste of money to buy this kind of thing. It's better to buy more dry food... I really don't understand you." The girl shook her head helplessly, but the joy in her eyes could not be deceived.
"It's good to be pragmatic, but life occasionally needs a little sweetener." Chen Ce smiled.
But just when Kasha was about to take the candy from his hand, he held the candy again and retracted his arm.
Kasha tilted her head in confusion.
Chen Ce smiled and took out his other hand.
"I have one candy and three candies hidden in my two hands respectively. Guess which hand contains the three candies? If you guess correctly, I'll give them all to you."
"..." Kasha is not blind. She just watched Chen Ce clearly take back the left hand holding a candy.
But after hesitating for a moment, she pointed to the other person's left hand.
"This hand has three."
This answer was of course wrong, and of course she knew it.
It's not that she was deliberately stupid, it was just...she didn't want to take away all Chen Ce's candies.
Such a valuable thing... She gave Chen Ce one before, and it would be nice to get one back now. She couldn't be greedy.
It's not that she's "careful" or anything like that, it's just...she wants Chen Ce to eat candy too.
"Well..." Chen Ce looked at his left hand, which told the other party that there was only one candy.
Then he smiled and said: "Congratulations, you guessed it right!"
"...Eh?" Kasha stared blankly at the other person opening his left hand.
There was clearly only one candy inside.
But Chen Ce just continued to smile, stuffed all four candies in his left and right hands to each other, and then said:
"I owe you two. I'll give it to you next time."
"..." Kasha was stunned again.
Her beautiful eyes, which had seen countless monsters, at this moment when she saw candy...
There was a hint of throbbing.
Chapter 115 Void Bug: I am a sliding shovel
When the scorching sun on the desert shone on his face, Chen Ce was so stung that he opened his eyes.
Then, as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a flawless and pretty face.
Of course it’s Kasha.
"Huh? Are you awake?" Seeing the other party's eyes open, Kasha took half a step back - only now could Chen Ce see her entire upper body.
The distance between them just now was less than thirty centimeters.
Kasha was almost lying next to the bed board.
"Hmm..." Such a sudden close contact made Chen Ce feel a little embarrassed even though he was so thick-skinned. "Are you up so early?"
"No, I didn't sleep last night." Kasha replied.
"Ok?"
"I don't need sleep, and I can't sleep."
"Then you spent the whole night last night..."
"Staying next to you."
"..." When Chen Ce thought about the beautiful girl in front of him staring at him all night, he felt embarrassed and a little... scared.
There is always a feeling that my waist is about to be pinched...
"I didn't know you didn't need to sleep...then you don't need to close your eyes to rest your mind?"
"Generally speaking, yes, but I want to completely ensure your safety." Kaisha's answer was still calm, as if it was a matter of course. "You are my employer, of course I have to be by your side 24 hours a day."
"Well...it doesn't have to be so detailed..."
"Did I make you uncomfortable like this?"
"It's not really...but it's too troublesome to raise it, right?"
"No trouble, there is no difference to me between lying in bed in a daze and squatting next to you watching you."
"This... well..."
Chen Zhizhi sat up from the bed in embarrassment and finished washing under the watch of the girl.
The other party really stared at me the whole time.
Not a word was spoken, and no movement was made.
"Ahem...Um...Miss Kasha, don't you need to wash up?"
"Wash? No, my second layer of skin can remove all stains for me." Kasha pinched her tender and white skin, and then looked at the precious pure water aside. "We won't waste precious water resources."
Hearing this, Chen Ce carefully looked at the girl in front of him.
Needless to say, her skin is hydrated and there is not a single flaw on her face. Her bright eyes and white teeth are even more beautiful than that of an aristocratic lady who takes care of herself every day... Well, this "second skin" is really convenient.
"Where are we going today?" Kasha asked again, "How should I complete my protection mission today?"
"Well... these are two questions." Chen Ce answered, "The first question, today we are going to find the nest of the void; the second question, you don't need to protect me today, but you have to protect... mine Supplies.”
"what?"
"I will go underground to explore alone, and you need to guard our things outside to prevent others from stealing them."
"Underground? The lair of those monsters?" Upon hearing this, Kasha quickly shook her head. "You will die if you go down alone. The danger there is far greater than you imagine... Although I want to stop you, since you are my employer... at least let me follow."
"No, Miss Kasha." Chen Ce showed another confident smile, and then patted the girl's little hand wrapped in a void carapace under her puzzled gaze.
"You can always trust Ionian explorers."
When Chen Ce first came to Shurima, he spent several days trying to find void creatures.
Icathia has fallen for hundreds of years, and the void cracks there have been squeezed to a minimum through the efforts of Queen Setaka and a group of celestial warriors. Although void creatures still appear from time to time, the number has become extremely small.
Naturally, there are not that many void creature nests in the desert of Shurima.
They lurk under the yellow sand, lurking in the shadows... They will break out of the ground at the most opportune opportunity, devour the passing pedestrians and goods together, and then use their deformed and twisted power to transform them into their own kind.
You may be attacked by them when crossing the desert, but it is not easy to find them actively.
It was a bit of luck that Chen Ce took a few days to find it.
If you are unlucky, you may not be able to find it even after wandering around the desert for ten and a half days.
At this time, the role of "Miss Bodyguard" comes into play - Kai'Sa's second layer of skin - the living void carapace, is itself a void creature and is naturally extremely sensitive to the same kind of induction.
It only took Kaisha half a day to accurately locate the void creature nest that was difficult for others to find.
Then it took another half day to see the entrance to the abyss buried under the quicksand.
"Can you enter the void creature's lair from here?" Chen Ce used his long sword to push aside some quicksand and looked down from a short distance.
The entrance of the quicksand is extremely small, and the flow rate is not very fast, just like most quicksands that are usually seen.
Apart from the ability to eat people, there doesn't seem to be anything special about it.
But Kasha's judgment is not wrong: "Well, about a hundred meters underground... a void creature nest, which is considered a relatively small one."
"Small? That's really a pity..."
"It's such a pity. I found this small nest specially for your safety."
"Oh, I mean it's cute even though it's small, but Miss Kasa has a good eye for it - unfortunately, I mean the entrance is too small, so I can only go in this time."
"Glib talk..." Kasha rolled her eyes at the other party, "If you are really willing to let me go in with you, it's not like we can't take turns entering."
"Haha, then all the supplies above us will be stolen." Chen Ce casually took some food and water and pretended to jump into the quicksand.
"You did it on purpose..." Kasha shook her head helplessly and looked a little worried: "You really don't need me to go down with you? Those monsters are very dangerous."
"Don't worry, I have my own means."
"But in case..."
"If nothing happens, I will come up regularly to replenish food and let you know that everything is safe."
"...Then if you don't come up for more than six hours, I will take the initiative to go down to find you." Kasha's tone became a little tough, "Whether you agree or not, you must agree to this condition."
"Okay, okay, I promise you." Chen Ce smiled, "Miss Kasha is so kind to me, she is so worried about me."
"Don't think too much, it's just because of our employment relationship - I have to ensure your safety." What Kasha said was a bit inhumane, but she is really not suitable for lying - as long as she says something that goes against her will, she will Subconsciously avoid the other person's sight.
Chen Ce stopped "teasing" this girl with a cold appearance and a hot heart, grabbed some necessities and jumped into the quicksand.
These "traps" that are deadly in the desert can sometimes be the "door" to another world.
As the yellow sand reached his head, Chen Ce first felt a strong sense of oppression and suffocation, and then a feeling of weightlessness that was almost like falling freely.
He couldn't tell how high or how long he had fallen. He only knew that the clothes on his back were almost worn into crumbs by the yellow sand.
When the feeling under the feet became solid, a disgusting stench immediately came from the surrounding darkness - like the saliva of those monsters, their corpses and the corrosive blood that had long been dried.
"Unsettling feeling..."
Chen Ce tightened his damaged clothes, and the chill down his spine made him think for a moment that he was in the Howling Abyss of Freljord.
The surroundings were dark, and the Seraph Blade almost ignited a bright holy flame on its own.
Chen Ce clenched the hilt of the sword and used the holy sword as a torch to move forward slowly in this strange underground cave.
As he went deeper, the stench in the air became more obvious, and the silence in the darkness was broken by some weird scratching sound.
crunch... crunch...
Like the sound of a large spider walking across a glass floor.
Then, the sound of the friction of objects gradually evolved into the roar of the monster... one after another, coming out from the throat that was like a liquid...
Creepy.
Chen Ce gradually stopped, and the Seraph Blade in his hand gradually lost its light.
He used the power of the devil and glimpsed a twisted black shadow in the endless darkness... It opened its terrifying mouth and greedily gnawed everything it saw.
