After returning to a safe place and making sure that there were no monsters in the tunnel he was in, Kane pulled Kesa in front of him.

"What's wrong with you?"

"My hands hurt."

"Is it just a pain in your hand?"

"Wow, I'm feeling uncomfortable......"

For a moment, sadness stained her face.

In fact, she also knows that this kind of emotion should not be there, and she must be restrained in this environment, but how strong can a child be?

She trusts Kane, which is why she shows her weak side in front of him.

"Don't cry, don't cry, I want to cry if you cry." Kane also faked crying a few times, which made Keisha feel better.

Then, wait quietly for her to say everything.

Keisha wouldn't hide it from Kane, she had been waiting, and whenever he asked her about it, she would shake it all out.

"My hands have become horrible, and they hurt like they have been licked by a fine needleboard like a cat's tongue." Keisha clenched her fists, the pain was not unbearable, but it was so clear that it would never go away.

"Pain can be relieved, but you have to get used to it, and gaining strength comes at a cost. Pain is proof that you are alive and that you still have the ability to feel good. Kane's eyes swept over Kesha's arm, quieting the skin.

"I don't feel the same thing when I touch it, my hands ...... It seems to have become a tool for killing. Keisha threw an angry punch, and the rubble flew and left a fist mark on the rock wall.

You know, this is a ten-year-old girl.

Kane sighed and reached out to crack her fist. Ten fingers clasped together, allowing her to remember how she used her hands in the first place.

He hugged the lost Keisha and whispered in her ear:

"I heard the voice of the carapace whispering in my head, and it confided in me as it grew to cover my entire body."

"It's crazy! You're going to go crazy! ”

Keisha's attention was drawn to Kane's eyes.

She stared into the abyss, and the abyss, playfully winked at her.

"Can't be crazy because I'm not alone."

The claws of the monster were clenched, and Keisha realized that there was more to this skin than just pain.

Those good feelings will not be blocked by an ugly skin.

What really rejects the beautiful is the cold and desperate heart......

Needless to say, she hugged Kane tightly, greedily taking in his body heat.

The Void has become a lingering shadow, but when you think about it from another angle, it just shows that they are never alone.

The cramped darkness squeezed them together, and the biting cold forced them to cling to each other, but it seemed that as long as there was each other, nothing could be overcome.

Is that really the case?

The Voidlands are not just what they are currently experiencing.

And can this belief withstand a more severe test?

We don't know.

"Are you hungry?"

After counseling Keisha, Kane removed the bag he was carrying over his shoulder.

Watching him take out some of the remaining jerky from it, as well as the hydration bag, Keisha just shook her head.

"I'm not hungry."

"Really? Don't lie to me. ”

"I didn't lie to you, or I would have beaten you in the ass."

Hearing Keisha defend this, Kane chuckled, wondering if she thought she had some special obsession with her ass.

"Then eat it as a snack."

"If you don't eat it, it's not something delicious, it's dry and hard. After eating, I will want to poop ......"

Keisha blushed suddenly, she was usually punished by her mother to sweep the sheepfold because she was naughty, and her attitude towards things like, pee, and fart was not as disgusting and resistant as the squeamish little princess.

But!

But......

It is absolutely unacceptable for her to do that kind of thing in front of Kane!!

It's so much that I can't even think about it!

Moreover, there is not even straw paper underground, how can this be dealt with.

So, after thinking about it, Keisha still decided not to eat, as long as she didn't eat, there would be so many things.

"Oh~ So you're worried about that."

Kane smiled narrowly, in exchange for a glare.

I thought that the little girl's family was thinking about some inconsequential little details all day long.

After coexisting with the Void Skin Armor, in fact, the two are not related to each other in the digestive system, and the digestion process of the host and the skin armor is independent of each other.

Just like a piece of meat, after the host eats it, it will be broken down into nutrients and waste materials in the digestive system. Nutrients are absorbed by the body and waste products are metabolized, but the conversion rate is very low.

If the meat is given to the skin armor to be devoured, it will completely decompose the organic matter and then reconstitute the nutrients and energy needed for growth.

There is no metabolic waste generated in the whole process, 100% completely transformed, and there is no waste at all!

This is also the reason why void creatures do not need to breathe, do not need to excrete, even if they are thrown into space, these creatures that violate the common sense of nature can live unharmed.

Kane had never heard of any void creatures that died of old age, and the complete absorption and transformation of matter was also the cornerstone of their rapid growth and evolution! It is also the capital of eternal life!

It takes hundreds of millions of years for normal organisms to evolve their morphological structures, and they only take a few years, or even minutes, to evolve.

As long as the outside world gives enough thrust, as long as the nutrition is sufficient...... In order to devour, they will evolve all kinds of grotesque forms and functions, and destroy everything in a crushing manner.

Everything is driven by an insatiable hunger.

Hunger is the primordial motivation for the Void Clan's life.

They represent a scourge of hunger, and their presence can be devastating to the original ecology of the Runeterras, which is why native life hates the Void so much.

But then again, in the symbiosis mode, the skin armor can't selfishly live just to satisfy his appetite.

If the host dies, they will also become inactive.

In order to ensure the health and survival of the host, they will feed back some of the nutrients they have ingested to the host when the host needs it, so as to meet the needs of growth and daily activities.

This is a symbiotic relationship of one prosperity and one loss. If the host refuses to feed, they will in turn absorb the host's nutrients.

The reason why Keisha was able to survive underground without eating or drinking for ten years was precisely because of this relationship.

As long as she keeps killing and feeds the Void Skin Armor with her heart, this layer of skin can support her to live in the place for a long time.

And Kane wants to become a monster precisely in order to replace the digestive system with skin armor to obtain survival nutrients.

However, this does not mean that the various organs of the human body will be discarded because they will be replaced by more efficient skin armor.

They are still well nourished and will not degrade after a long period of use. When the need arises, they can still play their original role and reinvigorate their strength.

After all, there are some parts that cannot be replaced by skin armor.

Seeing that Keisha didn't eat, Kane poured a sip of water and nibbled on the jerky.

"Chew Chew Chew ......"

In just a few days, he had almost forgotten the taste of meat, and the thought that he would not see any meat in the next few years suddenly made him feel that the dry and hard jerky in his hand had become a huge fragrance.

He didn't understand before, and he once missed many delicacies because of stomach problems, and prayed to God to give him an iron stomach that would never be broken.

At that time, he understood how happy it was to be able to eat.

And in this environment where he can't eat if he wants to, he has a deeper understanding of this matter.

Seeing that Kane chewed so deliciously, Keisha couldn't help but want to taste it.

But she frowned after a few bites.

"Wow, it's still so salty!"

"Hmph, young! If you want to taste the salt in a few days, you can only lick the sweat stains on your body. ”
