Chapter 188: Crisis

On the Valoran continent, in the remote land of Acacia, two humanoid creatures separated by tens of thousands of miles from each other stared solemnly at outer space beyond their sight.

One of them was named Cassadine.

There is such a place in many latitudes and worlds. Some say it's an outland, others call it an unknown space. In fact, those who know about it call this place the Void.

Despite its name, it's not a barren place. It is inhabited by indescribable creatures that are shrouded in fears unimaginable to humans.

Although this knowledge has now been lost, someone has inadvertently discovered the story behind it. Cassadine is one of them.

He had been forced to see the face of the Void Visitor, and had changed himself forever because of it. As a seeker of forbidden knowledge, Cassadine found that what he was looking for was something else entirely. He was one of the few people who found the forgotten Acacia and lived to tell the myth, including the few words hidden in the ancient texts.

In the decaying city of Boulder, Cassadine discovers a secret that he will never share with anyone else. The secret he was forced to keep made him tremble with fear of what was about to happen.

The Void threatens to occupy Cassadine's life forever, but Cassadine, in order to survive, chooses the only way out, and he lets the Void into his body.

Miraculously, he overcame the desires of the alien creature and took on a non-human form. Although some parts of his body died that day, he knew he had to protect the Valoran continent from the monsters that grinned outside the door, waiting to break in. They are only one step away, as evidenced by the appearance of the hated Kogas.

And the other is the one who has been infused with the name of the ancestor, Marzahar.

Most of them had gone insane in the glare of Shurima's scorching sun, but Marzaha had lost his mind in the embrace of the night.

Marzaha was born a prophet. Although his talent has not yet reached the realm of perfection, his ability is the greatest boon of the Land of Runeterra.

Because he has a strong sense of the complexity and changeability of fate, some undesirable things take advantage of the void and gradually erode his subconscious.

In his dreams, in the weakest place of the veil of isolation, an evil spirit was calling him. At first, Marzadhan was able to resist the intense temptation, but as time passed, the call grew stronger until Marzaha could no longer resist.

Lured by some kind of enchanting talisman, Marzaha ventured into the desert without any supplies. His destination was a place in the East that was described in ancient books as Aecasia, a declining civilization.

Few people believe that this place ever existed, and those who believe in its existence believe that Acacia must have been swallowed up by the sand.

Just when Marzahar's legs could no longer hold him, he found himself kneeling in front of a strange obelisk that had collapsed. The obelisk is surrounded by ruined alien cities and the colossus of corrupted dark spirits.

His eyes saw things that ordinary people shouldn't see, and they filled the void. Once, his visions of foreknowledge of the future fluctuated, but now he clearly saw the scene where Valoran would be besieged by the creatures of the Void.

At this time, the uninvited guests in outer space who were staring at the Valoran Continent were naturally Void visitors.

One of the void creatures, covered in spikes, with cold fangs in its mouth, resembled a praying mantis that had grown countless times in size, and would definitely be recognizable if Yang Fan was present.

Because this creature is, Kazik.

A vicious predator from the Void, known as Ka'Zik, has infiltrated Valoran, ready to devour the continent's most promising creatures. After each hunt, he absorbs the power of his prey and evolves himself to become more powerful. Ka'zik's most eager object to conquer and devour is Rengar, a beast that rivals his strength.

When Ka'Zik first crossed into this world, he was very vulnerable and hungry. The first animals he encountered were too weak to feed his rapid evolution.

So Ka'zik turned his attention to the most dangerous creatures he could find, even at the risk of his life, to meet the provisions needed for evolution.

Each kill gives him a feast, a new look, and a stronger and faster predator. Soon, Ka'Zik began to hunt down his prey with an insatiable appetite, believing that he was unstoppable.

One day, while he was feasting on fresh prey, he was unfortunately left behind by a yellow finch. A creature with fangs and iron tools sprang out from behind the shelter and slammed him to the ground. It roared, tore and scratched in his face, and for the first time Ka'Zik felt his blood spurt out.

With a roar of rage, he sliced through one of the beast's eyes in return. They fought from sunset to sunrise. In the end, they reluctantly parted when they were dying.

After his wounds healed, Ka'zik began to agonize with the idea of devouring the prey of a creature as powerful as a Void creature. He redoubled his efforts to study the mighty prey. One day, Ka'Zik will dismantle Rengar and taste it.

But at this time, the Void Marauder, Kazik, did not have the slightest so-called weak and decadent appearance, on the contrary, he was actually aggressive in blood, like a demon who had just crawled out of hell.

There was also a void creature beside Kazik that was even more murderous, looking at the Valoran continent in front of him with indifferent eyes and without the slightest emotion.

This four-horned Void creature is named the Void Retreat, Lexie.

Rexey was the largest and most grumpy of her group. She is a ruthless predator who can dig tunnels underground to ambush and devour her prey. Her insatiable hunger and thirst had left the Shurima Empire at its peak in ruins. Merchants, traders, and armed caravans travel hundreds of miles to avoid these vast areas, but cunning bandits lure the unwary into the killing fields of Lexey. Once Lexus detects you, your fate is sealed. There is no hope of escape; She is death from under the sand.

Let's not talk about anything else, just these two murderous void creatures, if they come to the Valoran continent, this will be a hero.

Behind Kazik the Void Marauder and Rykton the Void Retreat, it seems that an army of Void creatures can be seen as dense as a tide.

Ready to fly.
