Even if he completely escaped, the lingering feeling of fear still made him uncomfortable.
"Can you actually encounter it in a place like this..."
Chen Ce leaned against the solid rock wall to take a rest, his eyes still staring in the direction in which he escaped.
Yes... It's definitely that thing... It's exactly the same as the aura I sensed in Freljord...
It's really unlucky... You can encounter monsters of that level just by looking for a meal in a void creature lair...
"Chen Ce, what did you see?" Kasha on the side was not sure what was hidden under the ground, but she could guess from Chen Ce's horrified look that it was definitely some kind of terrifying existence.
"A void creature? A large one?"
"Bigger than the big ones..." Chen Ce smacked his lips and slowly slid down the rock wall - now only this solid feeling could bring him a sense of security.
"That's not an ordinary void creature... that's... the creator of void creatures..."
"Creator?" Kasha frowned, still not understanding.
"Void Monitor..." Chen Ce said the name directly, "The 'Creator' of all void creatures... they are the ones who created the monsters that destroyed Icacia..."
"So... the guy named 'Void Monitor' is very strong?" Kasha touched the void carapace on her arm, and the plasma energy contained in it immediately emerged.
She has hunted many, many void creatures and has enough knowledge and understanding of those guys, but she has never heard of the name "Void Monitor".
But she didn't think how powerful an independent void creature could be - what was truly terrifying about that damn monster was its countless numbers, not a single individual.
"More than just being strong..." Chen Ce shook his head, finally feeling calmer. "They have the ability to destroy the world. Even the god warriors of ancient Shurima are no match for them."
"Celestial Warrior?" Kaisha knew this name—all Shuriman knew it.
These four words almost represent the strongest combat power in the world, and are the basis for the ancient Shurima Empire to rule the world. According to ancient books and stone tablets, any god warrior has the super power to move mountains and reclaim seas.
If even the celestial warriors are no match for the Void Monitor...
"Are they really that strong?" Kasha's tone expressed doubt - not that she thought Chen Ce was lying, but that she thought the other party was overly frightened.
"Yes, you haven't seen them, so you don't understand..." Chen Ce showed a bitter smile, "Except for the most powerful gods warriors, everyone else can be devoured in just one turn by them. food."
"..." Kasha pursed her lips and wanted to question but held back - she had indeed never seen any void monitors and didn't understand them, so there was no point in continuing to argue on this topic.
After a moment of silence, she turned to ask: "Then do we want to go back and get the supplies we left there?"
"Between money and life, I will definitely choose the latter." Chen Ce shook his head.
Hearing this, Kasha said nothing more.
But just when they were about to take a rest before talking, the ground beneath their feet suddenly trembled.
It was just a slight kick at first.
then……
It is becoming more and more obvious and dense.
The entire land was shaking, as if there had been an earthquake that only happened once in Shurima in a hundred years.
"Are they going to come out so soon... Damn it...!"
Chen Ce cursed secretly, quickly closed his left eye and looked into the distance with the help of the devil's power.
He did not dare to hold back at all, and he used the devil's power to the extreme in just a moment, and his scarlet eye sockets even began to bleed - but correspondingly, he also achieved the ultimate vision that could see thousands of miles away.
In this way, he easily "saw" the void creature's nest that he destroyed.
The earth trembled, the yellow sand sank... A monster as huge as a continental plate opened its huge mouth and swallowed everything...
Sand dunes that were tens of meters or even tens of meters high turned into flat ground in an instant, and the surrounding rock walls began to collapse, and all the animals and plants that stood on the desert were involved...
A wisp of dark purple energy swirled and flowed in the earthquake, like a big hand controlling all things...
This terrible "earthquake" lasted for more than half an hour.
In the end, everything was calm.
Everything in the desert was annihilated.
Looking around, it has returned to its previous lifeless appearance of only yellow sand.
It seems like everything is over, and it seems like it never started at all...
Chen Ce gently wiped the blood from the corner of his eyes, and stopped looking into the distance when he felt a strong sting. In order to be able to clearly see every grain of yellow sand over there, his demonic power was already somewhat overloaded.
"What happened? Why are your eyes bleeding?" Kasha still didn't know the specific situation. She only felt that the two things in front of her were too weird.
"It seems to have come out...and it seems not to have come out..." Chen Ce covered his eyes and was a little unsure for a moment.
The earthquake just now was definitely caused by the void, but... nothing really came out of the ground.
Theoretically, the Void Monitor cannot now pass through the world barrier and reach the material realm...
It's just that their energy passed through the world barrier...?
Chen Ce thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure out the reason.
In desperation, he had to adopt the stupidest method: "Let's stay here for a while... I hope they are not coming."
"Oh..." Kasha nodded, feeling a little uneasy.
The two of them sat on the ground, preparing to stay here until nothing major happened again.
Chen Ce closed his eyes to relieve the discomfort caused by the overload of demonic power.
In the darkness, he recalled everything he had just experienced in the underground cave.
That terrifying aura... is very similar to the feeling when facing the Void Watcher in the Howling Abyss of Freljord...
but……
It seems a little different...?
The Grand Maester wakes up in his loft.
The surrounding darkness could not block his sight, and the stars in the sky could be seen twinkling above the hollow eaves.
He sat up calmly, moving briskly and stiffly—as if unconsciously.His hand touched the weapon beside the bed, but he didn't grip it.
As a great scholar respected by everyone in the ancient Shurima Empire, he still prefers books to weapons... This has been the case for thousands of years.
Even he is known as "Shurima's greatest warrior".
Both civil and military?Maybe so...a great maester with profound knowledge and the strength to match any powerful opponent.
Such a combination, surely any one person would have a halo and become world-famous, right?
But this great bachelor...he didn't think so.
He got out of bed. The large but not spacious room was filled with books, making it difficult for him to get down.It took him a while to find a way through the pile of books - well, it wasn't this "path" he took yesterday.
He was slightly stooped, but it was not because of any physical flaw in his body, nor was it because the design of the room was too short for humanity.
It's because he's too tall.It's just too high.
He was two or three heads taller than the strongest warriors in Shurima, and he had to bend down to walk through doors that ordinary people could pass through at will.
He walked slowly to a polished bronze mirror and looked at his face again.
As a Grand Maester...a Grand Maester of the Shurima Empire...
He is as ugly as a monster...
His body is covered with beast-like hair, and his stature is too tall to be human... He obviously walks on two feet and holds objects with both hands like a normal person, but his head is...
Jackal's head.
His name is Nasus.
The desert people now also call him Nasus, the Lost Son.
Because he has not set foot in the human world for hundreds of years... and his hiding place has never been discovered by humans.
He stayed in this secret room filled with books from the ancient Shurima Library for hundreds of years.
He is guarding some secrets here... and is also waiting for something... In more ancient times, there were former fellow warriors of the gods who came to look for them, but he turned away most of them. Outside - because he found that they had changed.
The blood of the god warriors became no longer holy in their bodies...the golden blood was stained with indelible stains.They become irritable, evil and murderous.
And it turned out that his guess was right - for a long time afterwards, these former companions each became kings, killed each other, and even launched one horrific bloody war after another... They ruined everything. .
They also destroy themselves.
The protoss on Mount Targon sealed them away, but Nasus was not sad.
He just felt that it was all destined.
He has been making horoscope predictions for hundreds of years, and the same results every time made him feel both happy and worried - he saw the hope and future of Shurima's re-emergence among the bright stars, but he also saw the hope and future of Shurima in the gray sky. In the dark clouds, he glimpsed the most painful thing...
He wasn't sure what the latter was, but it would definitely make him miserable - the prediction so far, although there was no detail, was destined to happen.
Nasus looked at himself in the mirror, painful memories flooding back to him.He even felt disgusted with himself.
He doesn't want to look in the mirror - and generally doesn't.But today was different, he had to do this.
Because his awakening tonight was not a natural awakening.
But something woke him up.
He felt a terrible aura in the endless night... It couldn't be said to be evil in the true sense, but it was extremely greedy.He wasn't sure what it was, but he caught a whiff of something "familiar."
【Disaster of Icathia】
Those terrifying existences that led to the complete destruction of Icathia...those alien beings that made the blood of the god warriors no longer pure...
Nasus recognized them.
He had a premonition that something was going to happen.
So he woke up from his dream, and he looked at himself in the mirror.
He began to do astrology, and also picked up the weapons that had been lying dormant for hundreds of years.
"Shurima's time has not yet come..."
Under the red light of the blood moon, Sivir walked along the long-abandoned deer, holding the golden cross blade tightly in one hand, and any slight sound made her muscles twitch.
She was followed by her employer, and a whole troop of guardsmen—noxians who tended to travel in groups, as if doing things alone would cost them their lives.
But to be honest, her employer, a girl named Cassiopeia du Cecchio, was indeed a noble lady who needed protection at first glance. She was so beautiful and elegant.There is no such person in Shurima.
I really don’t know how such a noble lady could be interested in exploring... and come here in person?I really hope she won't take two steps before she starts to scream for a rest.
Hmm...Okay, even if she has good physical strength, what happens after entering the tomb?The rotten smell and pungent dust and sawdust there are not something ordinary people can tolerate. She will probably hold her nose and shed tears, right?
Oh, the look of a noble lady crying... I haven't seen it before, so I'm looking forward to it.
Although it is a bit troublesome...
But anyway, as long as you have money.
As long as enough gold coins can be given, let alone taking care of a noble lady, it is no problem to bring her whole family over.
"Hey, we're about to enter the tomb."
Sivir tilted his head and said to the people behind him.
"This is a lost ancient tomb, but we found it after digging for a long time."
"Don't worry, I will give you a generous reward." The dignified and beautiful girl bowed slightly, with a gentle smile on her lips - she always looked like this.
Cassiopeia, a somewhat convoluted name.
But it sounds pretty good, right?
"I don't mean to raise the price." Sivir also smiled, "But if you are willing to pay more gold coins, I will naturally be happy to accept it."
"No more words, let's go in." Cassiopeia smiled and nodded, and with the help of the guards beside her, she carefully walked through the fragile and broken stone stairs.
This look made Sivir even more disdainful - she even had to be helped down the stairs, she was really a noble lady.
"No problem, but we have to be more careful." Sivir said with a smile, "I don't know what happened to the 'earthquake' this morning, but it is very likely that it has affected the structure of this underground tomb."
"Yeah." Cassiopeia nodded in agreement.
"I'm not sure how the air in this catacomb is. Don't take the torch down yet. I'll check the situation first."
