He Comes From the Void

"Kane, take a look at this thing."

Kassadin doesn't talk much on weekdays, except for some necessary words, he rarely chats with Kane.

So as soon as Kane heard his voice, he immediately looked away from the book and looked at Kassadin who was walking towards him.

"Look at this, I'm getting dizzy just looking at it."

Kane took the manuscript and glanced at it a few times. He was stunned at first, and then showed fanaticism.

This manuscript is worth more than all the books in the entire tower!

Although very excited, Kane patiently read through the manuscript first.

Kassadin saw that he did not appear dizzy, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly that Kane's ability to digest information is really high.

"This is a mage's essay on the law of time." After reading the manuscript, Kane concluded.

"The law of time? No wonder one looks dizzy at a glance. The thoughts of those mages are so crazy..." Kassadin rubbed his temples, trying to get rid of the dizziness from his mind.

"Those mages dare to even touch the void, what else are they afraid of?" Kesha took the topic, and it was time to find a chance to escape from the boring meditation.

Kane smiled mischievously. The owner of this manuscript was one of the few mages who opposed the release of the Void by the Law Enforcement Council, and he might be watching him at this moment. He didn't want to make a bad impression by speaking ill of others in person.

"Uncle, thank you for finding this manuscript, it is very useful." Kane smiled sincerely.

The owner of this manuscript is the person who is closest to success in studying the law of time since ancient times. If Kane can get any inspiration from it, it will allow him to achieve an unprecedented improvement in this field.

Kane continued to look at the manuscript, but Kassadin did not intend to end the conversation.

He paused for a while, then said in a deep voice: "Kain, I think there may be no information about Eternal Flame in the tower."

Kane looked up, puzzled.

"I've looked through all the books, and none of them explained its source, nor did they tell us how to obtain this flame." Kassadin said with a sense of loss, it was a life-saving thing for the family. .

If he knew which ancient tomb this thing was in, he would go down to check it out no matter how dangerous it was.

"Thank you, Uncle." Kane told Kassadin to sit down: "This tower is just the private library of a certain parliamentary mage, not the national privy library. It is normal that some things are not recorded. You don't need to responsibility."

Kassadin nodded silently, but he did not give up his plan.

If you can find a magical holy object like the blade of the underworld that has killed countless void creatures, maybe you can restrain the erosion of the void...

He didn't know Kane had an alternative.

When Kassadin was sleeping, Kane was still studying the manuscript, and he was fascinated by this sight, and couldn't put it down.

He didn't let go of the manuscript until Keisha pushed Kane down to sleep on a mattress.

But even with his eyes closed, he was still reminiscing about the contents of the manuscript, watching how the author deduced the essence step by step.

Occasionally, absurd ideas will pop up, such as an ordinary candle, which has been given the magic of stopping time, can it be called an eternal flame?

Obviously not. There is a candlestick in the tower to verify that it cannot pose any threat to the void skin armor.

After living a comfortable life for too long, it is easy to ignore the coming of the crisis.

As long as you stay in the tower, you don't have to be afraid of being discovered by void creatures. Coupled with Kane's original meditation method, the two have completely turned into nerds and nerds, ruthless learning machines that live by "photosynthesis".

Kassadin seldom goes out, because Kesha told him that the real void cannot be killed, nor is it something they can seal. So his daily routine has become exercising and reading in the tower, taking into account the observation of the outside world.

On this day, Kassadin leaned against the window and stared into the distance as usual.

The dark clouds cover the sun, and the tide in the abyss rises and falls forever, making people confused about what kind of dimension is beyond the realm.

Although curious, no one really dared to try it.

Just when Kassadin was distracted, a strange light came into his eyes.

Not a flash of thunder, but a constant light.

This strange light made his eyes sore and teary, and the capillaries congested and expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, prominently appearing on the whites of his eyes.

And he didn't even see what the light source was.

"Kane!" Kassadin had to close his eyes and called out to Kane.

Kane was reading a book in one hand and holding a mirror in the other, acting as a vanity mirror for Kesha who was combing her hair. Hearing Kassadin's eager voice, he hurried over without putting down his things.

"What happened?" Kane saw Kassadin's tearful face and approached him.

When he walked to the window, he suddenly felt a warm purple light shining on his face, and his skin immediately felt a splitting tingling pain.

He immediately leaned his back against the wall to avoid the purple light coming in from the window, then picked up the mirror and stretched it into the light from the sky, adjusting the direction little by little to reflect the scene outside the window.

He was stunned by what was reflected in the mirror.

It was a huge, bulging one-eyed eye, constantly jumping out arcs of annihilation. It twitched suddenly, and its long and narrow vertical pupils shrank and shrank, revealing a thoughtful look.

Even through a mirror, Kane could feel a hunger beyond imagination.

This hunger is not a thirst for flesh, but something deeper.

It is thirsty for knowledge!

"Be careful! It's Vel'Koz!"

"Vel'Koz?!" Kassadin, whose eyes were stung by tears, was terrified when he heard the name.

Anyone who has a little knowledge of the ancient legends of Shurima will know the meaning of the name Vel'Koz.

While the name doesn't translate exactly into modern languages, it roughly equates to "understanding by breaking down."

That is - "knowledge comes from decomposition"

It is a monster that existed long before the birth of civilization in Shurima, and is the earliest void creature in recorded history.

And now, it's watching them!

Vel'Koz was looking at the ruins in front of him.

Although there is not a single living thing in this space, it does feel the throbbing of life in front of its eyes.

It just made a routine trip back to Icacia, bringing the knowledge gained through splitting over the years back to the big rift in the material base of Runeterra, and handing it over to the watchers in the void.

But unexpectedly, he unexpectedly felt the throbbing of life in the ancient city that had been destroyed for many years.

As if separated by frosted glass, he vaguely felt something moving in front of him, which aroused Vel'Koz's curiosity.

And the curiosity from the eyes of the void is extremely deadly.
