He Comes From the Void

Chapter 16 Encountering the Burrowing Worm

"Is this the 'lake' you told me the other day? It might be more appropriate to describe it as an abyss."

The abyss in front of him is the junction of the two worlds, and the gateway from the void to the material realm.

The shape looks exactly the same as Kane's mutated eyes, like a single eye spying on the world underground.

Kane was startled when he saw the abyss.

And after hearing Kesha's words, he wondered whether his eyes had become the door to the void.

But he quickly suppressed this crazy idea. If that's the case, it's impossible for my own body to bear such a majestic energy.

Just as Kane wiped his eyes vigorously, a strong sense of crisis enveloped him.

In the abyss, countless soulless black pupils condense out of thin air, looking up.

Spirals of pale matter took loathsome shapes, fixed into hideous rudimentary creatures.

The rickety spine stretched and flattened, the swollen limbs straightened and elongated, the hooked claws were formed from the liquid mad sea, and the frenzied evolution woven into translucent monsters, endowing them with sharp and ear-piercing nascent cries.

He only felt threatened now because these monsters were just born!

Witnessing the birth of the Void Spirit made Kane feel as hot as an oven. Kesha beside her trembled slightly, and she couldn't feel any better.

Thousands of rustling monsters emerged from the sea of ​​madness, trying hard to get close to the two of them.

They come from the depths of the earth's core, or from the deeper end, travel in groups between the two worlds, and crawl up to the surface. With an insatiable urge to kill, they never stop walking on the road of disintegrating the world.

"Go!"

This time it was Kane who took Keisha away, and started running without taking two steps, trying to stay away from this dangerous abyss.

After staring into the abyss, Kane suddenly understood that the ethereal spirits he had encountered before were not completely still.

Their existence is endowed with meaning.

It is their deep digging that makes the underground world full of holes, and the maze-like tunnels and caves they walk in are their masterpieces.

The underground world is far more dangerous than they have seen!

The sound of rock scraping gradually came, but those monsters still caught up.

Kane looked back, fixed them with eye waves that only he could see, then turned his head and started running again.

But Kane's brain wave control has a range, as long as the distance is opened, the monster out of control will immediately move into action and chase after him.

They scrambled into several sideways, but the monsters always found their way correctly.

He didn't feel it when he used the radar to locate the prey before, but when he appeared on the radar of the predator, he felt that this ability was so lingering.

Another fork appeared in the darkness, and the two prayed as they ran that this fork would allow them to throw off the swarm.

Kesha is dominated by Kane, and he always chooses which way to go. His perception will prevent them from going to a dead end where monsters lurk.

But there are exceptions to everything. For example, this time, he didn't feel the threat under his feet until he walked onto the trap.

Kane does something Kesha doesn't expect.

While running, Kane suddenly shook off the tightly held hands of the two like crazy, then pushed Keisha away forcefully, and threw himself to the other side by the reaction force.

As long as there is a moment of inadvertence, it is deadly enough.

A monster several times the size of the two of them drilled out of the rock under their feet, biting heavily into the air between the two of them.

If Kane hadn't foreseen the danger in advance and pushed away in time, then at least one of them would be buried in the worm's mouth.

Keisha lost her balance and fell to the ground, and was hit by flying stones and injured her shoulder, but such a minor injury was nothing compared to the worst outcome.

She got up quickly, and furiously swiped her claws towards the monster's carapace.

The claws left deep scratches in the chitinous shell, but it wasn't enough to destroy its heart!

Kane saw that Keisha's claws couldn't open the carapace of the earth borer, so he immediately retracted his claws.

Kesha's claws had an extra layer of dark armor than his, and if even that couldn't destroy the shell, then he didn't need to try.

He asked Kaisha to bypass the earth borer and come to him quickly, because the ethereal worm swarm had already arrived on the battlefield.

But as soon as Keisha moved closer, the burrower bent its head to face her. On its eyeless head, there was only a huge mouth stretched wide, revealing a deep esophagus full of fangs, and a scorpion that was looking for the entrance. Hose tongue.

The huge mouth snapped together, and Kaisha was forced to fall backwards, narrowly avoiding the fangs.

But this delay, the terrifying number of ethereal swarms have surrounded her heavily.

"No!"

Kane's eyes widened with anger, and ripples appeared in his abyss-like left eye. The invisible ripples spread above the swarm's heads, stopping the berserk swarm that almost devoured Kesha.

Hunger made them restless, and he reassured them while turning some of the ethereals to attack the burrowers instead.

Kane can control the ethereal, but the stronger earth worms can't do it at all. Its huge, well-defined body blocked the middle of the tunnel, and if it wasn't killed, the two couldn't get close to each other.

The violently darting Void Spirit threw itself on the earth-boring worm, leaving a series of marks on the carapace with its mouth full of fangs. Drilling into the ground, he frantically twisted his limbs, and tried his best to shake off the Void Spirit that was hooked on his body.

good chance!

Taking advantage of the ground worm's attention being attracted by the ethereal, Kaisha seized the opportunity Kane created for her, trying to stick to the rock wall to bypass the earth worm and return to Kane.

But at the moment when it was about to succeed, the carapace of the earth borer suddenly popped open, and rows of slender but sharp stitches emerged, piercing into the rock walls on both sides like comb teeth, as if a bolt had popped out, directly Locked up Kesha's way back!

It wasn't until this time that she discovered that the monster's feet were embedded in the carapace, and it not only had feet, but also eyes...

Those black pupils were distributed on both sides of its torso, with a pair at each segment, staring at her and Kane respectively from the very beginning, and as soon as the two showed their intention to approach, it would immediately launch a lightning attack.

There were more and more difficulties and obstacles between the two, and Kesha was so anxious that she shed tears.

Suddenly, she found that those stitches were slender and seemed to be very fragile, and she wanted to tear them apart and break through the obstacles to return to Kane.

But she just stretched out her claws, but Kane told her not to.

"Don't do something stupid! It's dangerous!"

The ethereal spirit he controlled couldn't kill the earth-boring worm with a thick shell. This stumbling block had become an insurmountable obstacle between the two of them, so he could only reluctantly order.

"Kesha, you run. Run into another side road first, I will hold the swarm here, and when you are safe, I will take another side road to leave. Don't worry, I will find you again through my ability. "

As soon as the words fell, the dense swarm of insects around Kaisha opened a path.

His energy is rapidly depleting, and if he doesn't make a quick decision, neither of them will be able to survive.

"But this way you can't get rid of the swarm!"

Keisha is not that stupid, she knows that Kane's actions will lead him into an endless pursuit, maybe he didn't think so, but judging from the predictable results, his decision is already in the direction of sacrificing himself for her moved closer.

"This is the best way! You can escape smoothly, and I may not be caught up."

Tears dripped from his tired eyes, and Kane felt that his eyelids were so heavy that they might close at any moment.

But he dared not let it close, not at all...

He was afraid that in the blink of an eye, Kesha would be torn apart by the out-of-control insect swarm.

At the moment of fate, Kesha, who was only ten years old, followed her instinct and made her own choice.

"I don't want us to be separated! I want to be with you!"
