Chapter 660: Eyes from the Void
It had been several days since they left the most prosperous city in the Shurima Desert, and although Ye Feng and Sivir often went out in disguise to inquire about the two Nasus brothers in various small towns, they still did not achieve anything.
Sivir's mood was slightly heavy these days, and there was no news of the two Nasus brothers, and she felt that it was all caused to save her.
Since she didn't hear from the two Nasus brothers, she wouldn't be completely immersed in the emotions of loss. These days, she has not forgotten the mission given to her by Soraka, to go to various small towns and desert villages to find out about the guardians of the Void Gate.
Unfortunately, the Guardians of the Void Gate are like a legend passed down by word of mouth, and no one knows exactly where the Void Gate is, or what those two Guardians look like.
However, this did not discourage Sivir, and she searched for some anecdotes about the Shurima Desert, trying to find clues related to the Void Gate.
Crystal-covered monsters guard the mysterious dungeon ruins; sandstorms and oases that never go away; The Void Diggers, a terrifying creature that hates humans disturbing its slumber; The mysterious creatures sealed in the Emperor's Tomb......
Many of the many strange rumors that have been unearthed from the natives of the desert have been known to Sivir before. After some deliberation, she focused on the sandstorms and oases that never dissipated.
It is important to know that Shurima is now all deserts, and although there are occasional desert oases, these oases will quickly dry up and be desertified, and they will not survive forever, let alone the oases that accompany sandstorms.
However, since there is such a rumor, it is obviously not groundless. In order to verify the authenticity of the rumors, Sivir and Ye Feng visited many ancient desert cities, and finally confirmed that there may really be sandstorms and oases that will never dissipate.
And she found out that the rumored survivors were all found in the oasis by mistake in the sandstorm. Later, these survivors came out of the desert oasis, and only then did the rumors of sandstorms and oases that never dissipated.
However, what baffles Sivir is that the locations of the never-ending sandstorms that these oral survivors have encountered are not uniform, and even have a large geographical deviation.
But she was glad that although the various rumored sandstorms that never dissipated were geographically inconsistent, they were all located in the southwestern border area of the Shurima Desert, bordering the Florn Plains and the Kumang Ancient Forest.
This not only greatly narrows the scope of their search, but also indirectly increases the credibility of the rumors. Close to the Flon Plains and the ancient forests of Kumang, the possibility of an oasis is indeed much greater than in the central area of the desert.
With a clear search target, Xiwei led Ye Feng and the three out of the city where they had recently stayed early the next morning.
Without the pursuit of Zelas, the Shadow Isle Demons, and the Crystal Pioneer, she chose to walk to the southwest area bordering the Florn Plains and the Ancient Forest of Kumang in order to prevent the quicksand from sinking.
On the way, Xiao Lulu was holding Xiwei's cowhide bag in her arms, and Amumu happily shared the candy that Ye Feng took to please the two Fionas, and Ye Feng felt a pain in her flesh.
He wanted to warn the two little ones to eat less, but Sivir was by his side, and he was too embarrassed to tell Sivir, who he thought was given to her, that he had bought it for Fiona.
Sivir, who was walking in front, suddenly remembered that she hadn't told Ye Feng where they were going next, she turned around and smiled: "Ye Feng, we are going to the southwest border area of Shurima at the junction with the Florn Plain and the Kumang Ancient Forest, where there are rumors of deserts and oases that will never dissipate, and according to my speculation, it is very likely to be related to the guardian of the Void Gate."
Kumang Ancient Forest? As soon as he heard these four words, Ye Feng couldn't help but think back to the adventure when he and his childhood friend Fiona followed Avina into the Kumang Ancient Forest when he was a child.
If he remembered correctly, there was still a female human big sister named Nedri, who could transform into a cheetah, and the big sister named Nedri had the kind enough to take them out of the Lost Forest the size of a country in Demacia.
There was a feeling of affection and nostalgia in his heart that he hadn't seen for a long time, Ye Feng said excitedly: "Sivir, I've been to the Kumang Ancient Forest before, and there is still a human who can transform into a beast living in it, if the sandstorm that never dissipates is really related to the guardian of the Void Gate, she should know something!"
……
Deep in the southwestern frontier of the Shurima Desert, there is an oasis hidden by a sandstorm. This is the residence of Marzaha and Cassadine, who guard the Void Gate, and Ye Feng's sister Rui Wen also came here to practice some time ago.
The sandstorm formed by magic blocked the view of the outside world, and no one would have thought that inside this sandstorm would be an oasis of clear water and blue sky.
On the shore of the lake, Rui Wen was summoned by Cassadine, her demeanor was neither humble nor arrogant, but she also showed her due respect for the demigods. If it weren't for the nectar of time that Cassadine gave her nineteen years ago, she wouldn't have survived the poison gas released by Sinjid.
"Cassadine, I'm almost a demigod, do you have any urgency to summon me back from the Void?" She bowed slightly and said respectfully.
Standing above the lake, Cassadine had his back to the distorted dark purple Void Gate, and he stared at Rui Wen in a black silk scarf veil with a complicated expression, and his mouth let out a lamenting sigh of regret.
With a wave of his right hand, a breeze blew off the black veil on Rui Wen's face, and then Rui Wen's terrifying face densely covered with dark purple turbid energy was revealed.
"Are you really ready to be a monster that doesn't mean anything?" Cassadine's expression was solemn, and he looked at Rui Wen seriously.
With a hint of remembrance in her eyes, Rui Wen stroked the terrifying dark purple energy on her cheeks, and then nodded firmly with her eyes.
"Actually, with your talent, you can take another path to become a demigod, you don't have to be like us two old guys." Cassadine said again, obviously wanting to give Rui Wen a chance to regret it.
"I'm here to protect the Void Gate against the Void Visitors, even if I don't get infected with this Void power now, I will definitely be infected in the future, and it doesn't matter what kind of power I use to become a demigod!"
Shaking her head firmly, Riven rejected Cassadine's kind suggestion.
Cassadine saw that Rui Wen was so persistent, and he still couldn't stop it. Just as he was about to signal Rui Wen to go to the Void Land through the Void Gate behind him to accept the final trial, Cassadine felt a palpitating pressure seep through from outside the oasis.
Rui Wen also felt the terrifying magic, her expression froze, and Cassadine entered a state of high alert.
"Here...... Is it the Void Gate that connects to the Void Land? ”
As a terrifying magic sound came from outside the sandstorm, the oasis inside the sandstorm began to tremble. The tremor of the space became more and more violent, and then a huge spatial crack collapsed in mid-air, and a huge eye also appeared in the huge spatial crack at the right time.
The evil aura continued to seep into this oasis from the spatial cracks, and the huge eyes were also carefully observing the scene of this oasis.
The moment it saw Cassadine and Riven, its eyelidless eyes shrank suddenly, and out of nowhere, it emitted a magical sound containing evil power.
"It's the two of you who have been guarding this gate to prevent people from my clan from coming?"
