The skirmish before Life and Death Fortress lasted less than eighteen hours.
Both sides exercised restraint on top of their existing caution and did not fly into a rage over their losses.
The Void's patience, in particular, somewhat exceeded Xiao Tianyang's expectations.
Given their temperament, they should at least have come looking for trouble with him by now.
Yet the anticipated great battle never came.
As an observer of the battle, no change on the battlefield could escape Xiao Tianyang's eyes.
The lineup sent by the Void consisted of far more than Master Yi, Xin Zhao, and Trundle.
Afterward, Xiao Tianyang also discovered Lee Sin, Tailong, and others joining the battlefield.
Even with their skill and speed, ordinary people would have found it difficult to catch sight of them.
However, Xiao Tianyang had fought them before and was familiar with their combat styles, so recognizing their identities was not difficult.
Moreover, what surprised Xiao Tianyang most was the Void lineup they had deployed.
Besides Kassadin, who had appeared from the start, Kog'Maw, Vel'Koz, Malzahar, and Rek'Sai had clearly arrived one after another.
Xiao Tianyang also discovered the nature of their reinforcements this time.
Simply put, they prioritized quality, with quantity as a secondary concern.
The former meant that their numbers were limited, while the latter was somewhat contradictory because they had brought Malzahar.
That fellow's abilities faced few restrictions in reality.
The Void Swarm was the siege weapon he had cultivated.
Perhaps the Void Swarm itself was not truly physical, but rather creatures native to the Void, known as Voidlings.
Of course, regardless of what the Void Swarm actually was, the destruction and impact it brought could not be ignored on the battlefield.
On the surface, the Void Swarm merely made up for the Void's shortage of basic combat troops.
