He Comes From the Void

After chatting for a while, the family of three set off again. They had to rush to the next settlement before sunset, so it was inconvenient to stay longer.

"It's finally gone." Kane watched the caravan disappear into the horizon, and began to pick and choose on the ground, devouring the remains of the Milos beetle.

"What? Don't you like getting along with humans?" Kesha couldn't help asking when he heard his complaint.

"No, it's just that the skin armor is hungry. I can't disregard my image and devour it in front of outsiders." Kane tore off Milos' furry limbs, and then stabbed the bone spurs into his full abdomen to suck the sticky body fluid.

He really didn't want to crush the bugs and see a sticky and disgusting organ all over the place, so using a straw would make his nausea less.

"That's right, we came out to hunt." Under Kane's horrified gaze, Keisha casually inserted her claws into the full belly of the insect, and watched it dry up quickly.

After more than a hundred Milos were dealt with, it was not too early. The fiery red sunset hovered over the horizon, and the eastern half of the sky was soaked in night, covered with stars.

While there was still light, Kane opened his pocket watch to check the time.

It was an exquisite mechanical watch, but Kane smelled a hint of magic in it.

He turned the pocket watch to the back, and the Eye of the Abyss saw a magic core the size of a grain of rice through the metal back cover, showing a blue pattern in his vision.

"A technology driven by hex crystals, this should be something from Piltover."

Kane believes that only Piltover and Zaun, who are mutually superior to each other, should have the technology to manufacture such a mechanical pocket watch. Zaun's alchemy technology generally uses alchemy potions to be driven by chemical reactions, and the energy core in the pocket watch is obviously a crystal. rather than liquid.

Then it exudes magical energy, which is obviously Hex Technology.

"Hex crystal? What's that?"

Keisha opened the lid of the perfume and smelled it, and was immediately intoxicated by it. She suddenly felt that she was so happy to be born as a human. Then she heard Kane talking to herself, and she closed the lid and leaned over, fearing that the fragrance would be dissipated.

It is impossible for her to spray perfume on herself now, wouldn't that be exposing her position to the void creatures?

If you want to use it, wait until you return to human society, and use perfume to cover up the terrible smell of the skin armor, although this may not be useful...

"A crystal containing magic power. The original sample was collected from the Odin Valley in Shurima. It is the life core of a magical creature, just like the 'heart' for void creatures... This thing is very powerful, don't look at it There is only a crystal the size of a grain of rice inside, but it is enough to keep this pocket watch running for decades."

Kane closed the pocket watch and found that the magic breath was no longer dissipating, so he was relieved.

If this thing "leaks air", it can't be taken underground.

Void creatures would flock to a single tear of fear, let alone a magic crystal.

"Oh." Keisha nodded half-understanding: "It must be very expensive, right?"

"The whole crystal will be very expensive, but the leftovers the size of a grain of rice should be better, otherwise I'm sorry little brother, such an expensive thing."

Kane remembered that he was attracted by the magic breath just now and forgot to check the time, so he opened the pocket watch again.

"Sunset at 7:15, so it's summer now..." Kane thought thoughtfully, his location should be near the equator of Runeterra, and he had never been to a similar area in his previous life.

In a daze, Keisha handed the mirror to him and said to him, "Take it, I'm afraid I can't help but look in the mirror."

"Why not take a picture?" Kane picked it up and took a picture of his own face. This was the first time he saw himself.

His skin looked very white at first glance, but it always had some loess color. His dark purple hair had grown to cover his ears, and his bangs covering his eyes were pulled up to the top of his head. Except that the bridge of the nose is not as straight as expected, other places feel okay. Hairstyle is a deduction item. She is still young and her face shape still has room to grow.

Kane glanced at himself and Keisha, and found that he had Keisha's same pattern of facial lines on his cheeks and forehead, but there was no pupil in his left eye, only a deep abyss that kept flowing, as if connecting to different people. Space, looks a little scary.

"Aren't you really going to take a picture? Look at the changes in yourself." Kane raised the mirror at Kesha, and she was so scared that she stretched out her hand to cover her eyes.

"I don't dare..." Kesha said worriedly, "I'm afraid I will be disappointed after reading it."

"Oh? Are you worried about being ugly?"

"Hmm..." Kesha squatted down, staring at the sand on the ground in a daze.

Since scaring people away that time, she has doubted her appearance and is no longer confident. He didn't even dare to look in the mirror, for fear that Kane's affirmation of her over the years was perfunctory and deceiving her.

"This silly girl." Kane couldn't help swearing in his heart that adolescent girls are always too sensitive.

"Do you think Gemma is pretty?"

"It looks good." Kesha was noncommittal. Gemma was the older sister in a family of three. Kesha kept staring at her face while chatting with her.

"Then you don't have to worry, you're actually prettier than her." Kane smiled and threw the mirror over, Kesha had to pick it up for fear that it would break, and then saw her own face unprepared.

She stared at herself in the mirror and was stunned. After a while, she put down the mirror with relief.

"Haha, it's not beyond the scope of human beings, right? Do you think your face is covered with scales?" Kane came over and pinched her cheek, the more he looked at it, the more amusing he became.

"Hmm..." Keisha didn't comment on her appearance, but it could be seen from the upturned corners of her mouth that she was satisfied.

The boundary line between day and night quickly swept across the earth, announcing the coming of night.

Keisha recalled what happened today, with a smile on her lips, and suddenly remembered what Gemma had said, which encouraged her. With the mentality of giving it a try, she kissed Kane's lips expectantly.

Then Keisha found out she had been duped.

The lips parted, and Kesha met Kane's puzzled eyes. She was also confused: "It's strange, why doesn't it feel the electric shock that Gemma said?"

"Idiot, how can I have a special feeling without that kind of mood..." Kane was speechless, he had already skipped the stage of passionate love and entered the stage of old couple. Of course it's useless to make pies.

"Is that so?" Keisha followed behind Kane thoughtfully and set off again.

God knows what's going on in her little head.
