He Comes From the Void

Chapter 61: The Sheepskin Scroll

After waking up, Keisha opened her eyes and found that her vision had recovered. She looked up and saw that Kane was staring at her, and she was in a good mood.

"Hee~ I'm so glad to see you again, I hope it will be like this every day in the future." She said.

"I don't want to be in Icacia every day. Are your eyes okay?" Kane could still feel some dark shadows moving with the eyeballs in front of him, which were the afterimages left by lightning in his eyes.

However, the eyes have generally recovered in sevens and eighties, and normal use will not be affected, and they will fully recover after a period of time.

"Well, I can even see the hair curling up." She moved aside, took off the helmet, took out the mirror and comb that she carried with her, and combed her hair in front of the mirror.

"Then I'll go to another room, you wait for me here."

Kane has seen this scene many times in the past six months, smiled and walked to other rooms.

There are no traces of any corpses or void creatures entering the house. It seems that when the void struck the town, the residents had already evacuated, so no traces of conflict were found.

There is no study room, but Kane found an envelope on the floor of the bedroom. He happily picked it up and blew off the ashes to take a look, but found that he couldn't understand the words on it at all.

Only then did he realize that not only did he not know the ancient characters, but even the modern Shurima characters only knew some of the commonly used ones in daily life.

He threw away the letter paper, turned his head to the kitchen, and found that there was still food on the dining table, but it was covered with dust that had hardened into clods.

This is already a cultural relic...

Finding nothing, he went back to the room where Keisha was, suggesting to go out and search.

Keisha was trying to tie her hair up like Gemma's so it wouldn't be messed up when she slept. But she didn't have the tools, and then gave up.

"I'll go too!" She followed without hesitation.

As soon as she went out and saw the sky still thundering, Keisha's enthusiasm immediately subsided a lot. She put on the helmet and became heavy and cautious.

In Icathia, any misstep could spell ruin.

The temple has collapsed, and after searching for ordinary houses to no avail, the two turned their targets to those special buildings.

For example, a tower.

Icacia is the kingdom of mages, and the mage tower is the symbol of mages. Maybe you can find something about magic in it.

After confirming that there was no threat inside, the two pushed open the dusty door. They cracked the palm armor and shot beams of light from it to illuminate the surroundings.

It was just that the next scene disappointed him—the entire tower was emptied, the bookshelves embedded in the walls were empty, and there were only broken pages all over the floor, which contained incomplete information.

"I thought I could find magic items." Kane walked around and found that there were no items exuding magic fluctuations, which was a pity.

He couldn't read the broken pages on the ground, and couldn't tell whether they were useful or useless. And magic will attract Void's attention, and normally, if there is any, it will be swallowed up long ago.

But on the table at the top of the tower, Kane found a sheepskin scroll that had been sealed with wax.

He swept away the dust and saw a familiar sign at a glance, which made him very, very concerned.

The center of the logo is a distorted regular triangle, each corner of the triangle extends a hook-like arc, and the center of the hook is a point.

These three respectively imply fangs and claws, twisted tentacles, and all-knowing eyes, representing the triadic nature of the void.

He will not be mistaken, this is the sign of the void!

Kane skipped the incomprehensible explanatory text, and shifted his gaze to the next pattern.

The unknowable magic circle generated elemental flames, and this flames suppressed the expansion of the void...

"This seems to be some kind of research material about the void!" The rest of the sheepskin scroll is only text, but this does not affect Kane's association.

According to legend, Icacia first discovered the deep underground void during an earthquake. In order to bring this dark and powerful thing back to the ruling council, they used a special elemental flame to barely contain it.

This kind of flame is called Eternal Flame, which will never go out and can prolong the life of the holder.

One of the most famous examples is Jax the Weapon Master, who uses a lamppost as a weapon, and the eternal flame burns inside the lamppost.

Jax's lifespan was extended by the Eternal Flame to exceed the limit of his long-lived race. He is still active in a corner of Runeterra, looking for common people who can fight side by side with him while peeling his favorite boiled eggs. A warrior who faces the void.

But this is not enough to explain the magic of the eternal flame. The reason why this kind of flame can contain the power of the void is because it can harm the void and pose a threat to the void.

And this effect is very important to the existence of Kane.

When he saw the sign, he thought, if he mastered this elemental flame, would he be able to curb the erosion of the void?

With this in mind, he solemnly put away the scroll, and prepared to read it after studying ancient Chinese or meeting someone who knew it, hoping that it could provide some clues about the Eternal Flame.

Kesha looked up at Kane who was coming down the stairs, and saw that he was in a happy mood with a smile on his face, so she walked over to grab the scroll in his hand: "Let me see what treasure you found!"

Kane didn't use much force, and was easily snatched by Keisha. She opened it, and then question marks appeared in her head like reading a book from heaven.

"What is it all about? I can't understand it at all!"

"It's a ghost if you understand it." Kane took the sheepskin scroll and rolled it up again: "This describes a kind of flame that can restrain the void. It's best to plan early. If we master this kind of flame, we may can handle the worst of the worst.”

"Worst case scenario? What's that?" Keisha wondered.

"Maybe one day, we may be eaten back by the Void Skin Armor," Kane said.

As soon as the words fell, some kind of tingling pain came from the skin armor immediately, the pain made the two knees go limp, and they fell forward and hugged each other.

Keisha quickly got used to the pain, but through two layers of skin armor, she felt the squeeze from her chest, which made her feel strange emotions.

With the beginning of breast development and Gemma's reminder, Keisha is no longer the girl who doesn't understand anything.

After being silent for a while, seeing that Kane still didn't move his hand away, she joked to mediate the atmosphere: "Isn't it too embarrassing to conspire so loudly in person? People are angry, so let's say less of this kind of thing in the future."

However, Kane was not amused by her, nor did he move his hand away.

Kesha found that he was stunned with his eyes open, his facial features were slightly distorted and could not be flattened, his eyes were slack, and his thinking seemed to have entered a strange and unknowable state.

This is definitely not a normal behavior when eating tofu, and Keisha knows what happened to Kane.

When Kane tries to peel off the skin armor, he will use most of his consciousness to communicate with the skin armor. In this case, his control over the body will become weak, and his control over the skin armor will increase.

Looking at it now, he obviously entered a deep state of synaesthesia.

Just when Keisha was hesitating whether to wake Kane up, his slack eyes suddenly became focused, and he ignored the embarrassment that happened just now, and said directly:

"Not good! There is a big guy coming towards us!"
