Chapter 7 I came back for those who can't!

On a windless night, Zuo Chi turned into a black shadow, jumping quickly between the buildings.

Soon, he was infinitely closer to the west of the village.

It was also at this time that Zuo Chi slowly stopped.

Not far in front of him was a very dilapidated hut.

As night fell, the hut was lit up by candlelight.

But for some reason, the candle was dim, as if it could be extinguished at any moment.

Zuo Chi knew that it should be the utility room mentioned by the village chief, for the 'girl cursed by the void'.

Although the hut is located in the western part of the village, it is far away from the houses where the villagers live.

Not only that, but even in the direction of the hut that the villagers were facing, a fence full of spikes had been erected!

The fence that exists in the village can't be protected against Void creatures.

There's only one thing to guard against.

That cottage!

Seeing this, Zuo Chi's brows couldn't help but furrow slightly.

Crossing the fence in front of him, Zuo Chi strode towards the hut.

......

On the other side, inside a dilapidated hut.

A figure wrapped in a dark purple carapace was sitting hunched over the bed.

The carapace of her head slowly parted to the sides, revealing the face hidden beneath the carapace.

It was a girl with purple hair, and a pair of exoskeletons that constantly emitted purple light on her back.

The girl's facial features are extremely delicate, and her figure wrapped in a carapace is also tall and slender.

At this time, her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and the eyes that had been firm in the past also carried a deep pain at this time.

Under the light of the candlelight, the carapace around her waist slowly parted, and the hideous wound was slowly revealed.

If it weren't for the protection of the carapace, the wound would have almost cut her back!

Not only that, but around the wound, a purple light filled with an evil aura was constantly eroding her flesh and blood, making it impossible for it to heal itself.

The girl looked at the wound on her waist, and her purple eyes were full of helplessness.

She didn't know what she had to do to repair her injuries.

She didn't know who in this world was willing to help her.

Do you want to go to the villagers outside for help?

I'm afraid she had just walked out of the house when the villagers pointed their bows and spears at her.

But how would she have repaired the almost fatal wound without the help of others?

Perhaps, from the moment she walked out of the void wearing this carapace, she was destined for today's end.

Alone, dying to fight the void.

I went out tonight to find a cure for myself, but nothing came of it.

Instead, she was once again confronted with a large number of Void Bugs, which also made her already badly injured body even more unable to make ends meet.

The severe pain in the lower back and the feeling of weakness due to ischemia caused the carapace on the surface of the body to gradually shrink.

What followed was a pinprick pain on the skin.

It also doesn't want to die.

In a trance, the girl's thoughts flew to the years when she had not become like this.

At that time, she was also like her peers, a little girl with a happy family.

But it wasn't long before the Void Prophet Marzahar summoned the Void underground, engulfing her entire village entirely.

At that time, she was only ten years old!

In the endless darkness, she could only listen desperately to the voices of the villagers around her as they dimmed little by little.

It was also since then that she embarked on the road of survival alone, in the vast darkness.

She didn't know how long she had been walking in the darkness before a glowing purple light appeared in front of her.

This purple light is undoubtedly hope for a survivor who has been walking in the dark for an unknown amount of time!

She ran as hard as she could towards where the purple light was.

But when she came nearer, she was horrified to find that there was a ray of hope.

It was clearly a Void Lair made of countless Void Bugs!

That purple light is the light of annihilation that represents the end of all things!

Because of the girl's arrival, countless void bugs rushed towards her, wanting to devour her completely.

It was also in this existential moment that she raised the dagger her father gave her.

With a violent tumbling, she plunged her dagger into the heart of the Void Bug, pulling it into the depths of the Void.

After that, she was completely unconscious, having no idea what was going on.

By the time she woke up again, the eerie carapace of the Void Bug had completely attached itself to her body, becoming her second skin.

In this dangerous void, this strange carapace gives her the ability to live!

Since then, she has lived every moment in battle against the creatures of the void, and at the same time, looking for her way home!

Finally, after an unknown number of years, she finally set foot on the land of Acacia again, shining in the sun.

It's just that although the Void Carapace on her body gives her the ability to kill the Void, it also deprives her of the right to live normally with humans.

She became a monster that everyone shouted at her.

Her portrait was even painted on the walls as a reminder to passers-by to be wary of the monster.

And when she is facing everything, her eyes are always so flat.

She wouldn't give up on killing Void creatures because of people's hostility, and she wouldn't turn her against them because of people's rejection!

Just like now.

Although the people of this village treat her like a monster and watch out for her.

But when the little girl in the village is about to be devoured by the void creatures, she still chooses to save the little girl.

Although he will be impaled by the bone spurs of the top void creature Kogas because of this!

She always remembered that she didn't come back for herself!

She came back for those who couldn't!

From the beginning to the end, she never turned her back on this belief.

It's just that now, her confrontation with the Void may be coming to an end.

The hideous wound on her waist couldn't be repaired on its own, and she couldn't find anyone willing to help her.

She could only feel it quietly, feeling the void breath at the wound wear out her vitality little by little.

Gradually, the girl lay on her back on the not-so-large wooden bed, her purple eyes glowing with a little water.

"Finally...... Can you rest......"

"Knock knock!"

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door that caused the girl to sit up from her bed.

She could clearly perceive that there was a person standing in front of her door at this time!

In the past, this situation simply could not have happened.

After all, who would come looking for a void monster!

And now, it has appeared, and it is at this special moment!

In this regard, there is almost only one thought in the girl's mind.

'Do you want to kill me while I'm seriously injured...'

A sad wry smile crossed her lips as she stood up and walked to the door.

Perhaps, it's time to leave the village.

At the very least, die in the battle with the Void creatures.

"Squeak!"

The door was slowly opened, and Zuo Chi at the door also looked at the girl.

And what Zuo Chi said next made the girl stunned.

"Do you need help, our family is a single old Chinese medicine doctor."
