Chapter Fifty-Six: Jax, the Master of Weapons

The strange man in a cloak turned around, who else could it be if it wasn't the master of weapons. Now Jax is no longer the strong man with pockmarks on his head and a big beard in the time of Acacia. After wrapping himself in a cloak and mask, he has become the master of weapons we are most familiar with.

"I didn't expect to see you here?" Lan Bing and Lan Yu stepped forward and greeted each other.

Under the mask, the weapon master grinned, and the sight of the old man in the former enemy's capital also made the weapon master extremely emotional. After the destruction of Acacia, he thought that all of his compatriots had died.

After escaping from Acacia, the Master of Weapons struggled to find his compatriots who might have escaped from Acacia, most concerned about his comrades who had faced the Ascended Ones together, but without exception, to no avail, making Jax think that they had fallen to Acacia and had become a meal for the Void Monsters.

"Thank goodness you guys got out too."

Lan Yu looked at the weapon master, but found no trace of Kougelin, and sighed in his heart, and an ominous premonition emerged. Perhaps Jax's close comrades-in-arms have been killed. But he still tried to think on the bright side, and maybe Coughlin happened to be not here, but left for a while.

Jax noticed his gaze and was conjured with painful memories. This weapon master, who stood up to the sky, couldn't help but bow his head. When the two of them saw the weaponmaster's movements, they understood in their hearts. Lan Yu still asked with a one-ten-thousandth chance of luck, "Kou Green...... He...... How's it going. ”

The Master of Weapons sighed as he recounted their escape in Acacia.

It happened that after encountering the wave of Void Worms in the giant pit of the Shurima Floating Battleship, the story of the Weapon Master and Cogelin staying behind and breaking off, zigzag forward with the team underground, fiercely fighting the Canyon Vanguard, obtaining the Blue World Rune, and then encountering Vikz is a parallel story.

After repelling the group of evolutions, Jax and Cogelin wanted to enter the underground cavern to catch up with them, but Cogelin's injured arm was not completely healed, and it emitted a strong smell of blood, which would make the Void Worms sniff the smell of blood and find them in the dark and confined underground environment. So the two had to flee Acacia through the ground.

At that time, Void Evolvers were rare, and Jax and Coughlin were able to quickly advance north, escaping the Void's flashpoint, encountering large and small Void swarms along the way, all of which were repelled by Jax and Korgelin with their amazing martial arts.

Something bad happens, and Jax and Coughlin get Vikz's attention. Vikz was watching the four of them with interest from underground, after they were pulled back. Vikz had no choice but to turn his attention to the two Weapon Masters on the ground.

Just as it did when it intercepted the Darkstar, a steady stream of Void creatures was sent in pursuit of them, including molted evolutions, newly born Void creatures, and some terrifying Calours and Mourning Beasts.

Along the way, the Master of Weapons and Korglin see the devastation wrought by the Void and truly recognize its destructive power, and they hate their own folly. They feel guilty that they have pushed the world to the brink of destruction with their own hands. As the high-ranking commanders on Acacia's side, the heavens have given them countless opportunities to stop the Void from erupting, but they have been ignored due to luck and hatred of their country.

Korgelin hated that he should have voted against releasing the Void, and when he got angry, he even threatened to live and die with Acacia, let the weapon master let go of him and run away on his own, fight the Void himself, and atone for his own sins, Jax complained that he should have killed the mages who discovered the Void immediately. Erase the possibility of a Void eruption from the root.

Complaining is complaining, and the attitude of the two running away is by no means ambiguous. They can't die, and their strategy and martial arts are still useful. The only force in the world that can resist the Void is the Shurima Empire.

Under the common threat, no matter how reluctant they were in their hearts, reason also made the two of them determined to join Shurima's army to resist the Void.

They were the only ones who had ever confronted the Void at the time, and they had a deep understanding of it, and such important information had to be passed on to Shurima. But they weren't the only ones who thought of this layer, Vikz also thought of this layer.

At first, there were ethereal spirits, and there was a constant stream of them, forcing Jax and Cogelin to fight and run. Then the evolution of the void was wrapped in a large number of void spirits, and finally the two of them used all their strength to fight.

In the fierce battles, Jax and Coughlin had one wound after another. Thankfully, the Master of Weapons carries the Eternal Flame Torch and is able to burn his wounds with flames after each injury, thus avoiding being infected by the Void.

Vicz is particularly shrewd and well versed in persimmons' picks and soft pinching, and orders the void creatures to attack the weaker and badly wounded Kogelin. Trying to open a breakthrough in him.

The reason is obvious, it is psychologically difficult for a soldier to run away alone without his companions, not to mention the small pair of Weapon Master and Golin - the Void Eye has analyzed the psychology of humans. If one person is slowed down, the other will inevitably be slowed down.

At that time, the Void will be able to rush up, surround the prey, and unload it in pieces.

Jax and Cogelin saw through the Void's plans and began to speculate that there was an intelligent being behind the Void. At first, he tried to find out the existence of Vikz and tried to kill him, but it turned out that it was completely futile.

Vikz used their psychology to lead the two into the encirclement. In that battle, there were thousands of Void creatures enveloping the Mourning Beasts, Woe Lin, and Flying Void Creatures to attack.

Not even the Celestial warriors could resist the attack for long, let alone the flesh and blood Jax and Cogelin. After a brief battle, Golin resolutely stayed behind to break off as a weapon master, leaving alone to fight the Void to the end, using fire crystals to die with the Void at the moment before being knocked down by the Void creatures. He will not leave a trace of flesh in the void.

Jax endured the grief of losing his comrades and headed north, finally leaving the void creatures behind.

Hearing this, Lan Yu let out a long sigh.

He patted the master of weapons on the shoulder: "The dead are gone, what we have to do is to avenge the dead people and warriors of Acacia." ”
