Capítulo 159: CHAPTER 159 - Voidspawn - Frenzied Void
Upon hearing Kassadin's vengeful words, Anseil's face betrayed a hint of fear, instinctively stepping back.
"I see, your name is Anseil?" Kassadin's voice was as cold and deep as ancient ice that could never melt.
Taking a step forward, Kassadin's demeanor intensified Anseil's fear, causing him to retreat further, almost pressing against the wall made of stone bricks.
"Are you afraid? I can feel your fear."
With a grim expression, Kassadin raised his right arm, reaching towards Anseil.
The next moment, he gripped the purple veins on his own face with his withered hands, letting out a scream of terror and agony, "Aaaah!"
"Kassadin, is this necessary?"
Holerytus's expression showed some discomfort. Anseil, despite now being part of the cult, was still considered an old friend.
Although their relationship was not as close as his with Kassadin, any conflict between them, especially if it escalated to bloodshed, would tarnish his long-standing good reputation.
"Don't stop me, Holerytus, I think you know the reason."
Kassadin glanced back at Holerytus, his bloodshot red eyes making him swallow the words he was about to say.
Two years ago, Holerytus had heard about the disaster at the Valley of Songs, where an entire village was swallowed by a purple abyssal crevice.
He knew it was the home of his old friend Kassadin and even sent people to investigate the situation.
As expected, the small village had become a ruin...
In the two years that followed, Holerytus had not seen Kassadin again, assuming he had perished with his family under the earth, which was quite regrettable.
Unexpectedly, today he saw him again, armed to the teeth with Hextech technology purchased from Piltover.
Holerytus was shrewd; upon recognizing Kassadin earlier, he immediately understood the reason for his attention.
However, what surprised Holerytus was that Kassadin chose to confront him directly.
"Yes, yes..." Kassadin stared at Anseil's dark purple eyes, laughing coldly, "You can feel their presence, can't you?"
Anseil retreated to the wall, his yellowed sharp nails already scratching the purple veins on his face, but what flowed out was not the red liquid commonly associated with blood...
The purple-black blood, faintly glowing, slowly trickled down his nails and cheeks, dripping onto the ground with a corrosive "sizzle" upon contact.
"What is this thing?!" Holerytus exclaimed in horror, taking a cold breath.
Even Sivir, who had been silent, couldn't help but murmur, "Is this the aftermath of humans being infected and corrupted by the Void?"
Even Li Lin, who knew about the Void beforehand, couldn't help but shiver as he looked at the dripping and corrosive blood.
The corruption of the Void on the human body was not limited to the flesh; it wouldn't spare the soul either.
This guy had become a breeding ground for Void creatures...
Anseil dared not look at Kassadin, his voice hoarse with fear, "I... I don't understand what you're saying..."
"To the Void within you, you are insignificant." Kassadin clenched his right hand into a fist, a purple blade of light manifesting from his wrist.
Everyone present could feel a metallic, sour taste in their mouths.
Holerytus was even more shocked; his trembling finger pointed at Kassadin's glowing blade, stuttering, "Th-th-this... is a magical item?!"
"The Netherblade of Horok, the weapon of a divine warrior." Sivir stepped forward, explaining beside Holerytus, "Speaking of which, this is also the first time I've seen another divine warrior's weapon."
To be safe, she drew the Crossblade from her leather scabbard on her back, looking at the now completely insane Anseil with vigilance.
As the Netherblade and Chalicar were drawn together, his reaction became even more pronounced.
He clasped his head with both hands, purple veins bulging all over his body, his two eyes, filled with purple-black bloodshot veins, almost bulging out of their sockets, his entire body writhing in agony, unable to help but slam his head violently against the brick wall, emitting a dull "thud".
Holerytus, with keen eyesight, noticed that something was simultaneously protruding from Anseil's withered skin, wriggling underneath him, gradually converging in one place.
"Damn! What the hell is this?!"
Holerytus panicked, quickly pulling out a slightly old but well-maintained revolver from his waist, pointing it at Anseil.
"Is this guy... still human?"
None of the three present paid attention to him, all on high alert.
Li Lin activated the armor of his right palm cannon, initiating Data Mind, and Anseil's condition appeared on his panel.
[Name: Anseil (Void Biological Parasite)]
[Personal Status: Fanatical follower of the Void Cult, Void Missionary, Void Corruption, Star Corrupted Illusion, Void Seedbed, Void Parasitism, Void Spirit Activation...]
"This guy is no longer human!" Li Lin reminded Kassadin sharply, but before his words could fully sink in, Kassadin had swiftly seized the opportunity, taking a quick step forward, simultaneously swinging his right arm.
A purple energy blade cut through the air in a semicircular arc, effortlessly slicing through Anseil's neck.
The look of terror on Anseil's face froze from the previous moment.
The next moment, his head and both half-arms slipped off and fell to the ground, a pair of eyes now dull and lifeless.
With a muffled thud, Anseil's headless body collapsed to the ground.
But strangely, his body didn't spew out large amounts of blood as expected; instead, it rapidly shriveled, as if something had drained it of all its nutrients.
[Void Spirit Activation: Premature incubation due to insufficient nutrients, entering a frenzied state.]
Even though the host had died, this Void Spirit could still hatch directly?!
Li Lin's face changed drastically, loudly warning, "Be careful! Kassadin, quickly get away!"
He didn't intend to give this Void Spirit any chance, immediately raising his hand and launching an energy sphere at Anseil's corpse.
However, seemingly anticipating the danger, as Li Lin raised his hand, Anseil's body swelled.
As the energy sphere was about to be launched, a creature, about half a meter in size, with crab-like legs and three eyes burning with yellowish light, and a bizarre insect-like shape, burst out of his shriveled corpse.
Its entire body was a dark purple color, tightly wrapped in chitinous armor, with a throat full of sharp teeth extending from its mouth, emitting a creepy "sizzle" sound.
The Void Spirit noticed the energy sphere shooting towards it and reacted swiftly, pushing off the ground with all four legs and leaping up, landing steadily on the stone wall behind it.
Then, its "head" twisted in a strange manner, roaring angrily at the crowd, especially at Kassadin and Sivir, who held divine weapons.
But Li Lin keenly noticed that its three eyes quickly scanned different positions inside the room.
"It's trying to escape!" Sivir hastily shouted, tossing her Chalicar.
The spinning crossblade bounced off the bricks several times, seeming to have a life of its own, and flew straight towards the Void Spirit at an angle that no ordinary person could anticipate.
At the same time, Li Lin activated the cannon armor on his left hand, locking onto the target with a semi-intelligent chip, and both hands simultaneously fired energy blasts.
Holerytus, not idle, quickly reacted and fired several shots at the Void Spirit.
However, the agility of this frenzied Void Spirit far exceeded everyone's imagination.
Its four chitinous legs slightly bent, and then it leaped forward, skillfully avoiding the attacks from Sivir and Li Lin, which posed the greatest threat.
As for the bullets from Horleriths' revolver...
These kinetic ammunition only hit the hardest part of the Void Spirit, not even breaking through its chitinous armor.
Leaping over the heads of everyone, the Void Spirit landed steadily and, without looking back, rushed towards the door.
"Not good!"
Kassadin's eyes narrowed, using the Blade of the Abyss to tear through the material realm in front of him, disappearing in an instant from the sight of everyone, ready to intercept the Void Spirit's escape route outside.
Sivir also rushed outside, reaching back with her right hand, and the Chalicar, which had just bounced off the wall, flew back into her hand.
Holerytus, who was reloading his revolver, followed closely behind, muttering curses under his breath, "Damn it, damn it, damn it! If this monster runs outside, it will cause a lot of chaos!"
However, just in case, Li Lin had already secretly switched the mode of the three Storm Robots outside.
As soon as the Void Spirit fled from the doorway, the intense gunfire echoed in the corridor outside, causing a commotion.
"Squeal---!!"
Accompanied by a piercing, inhuman scream, a notification flashed across Li Lin's system panel:
[You have killed the Voidspawn - Frenzied Void for the first time, gaining 2 skill points and 200 blue essences.]
