The Voidwalker

The newly appeared giant didn't attack me; instead, it fought with the troll!

It was considerably smaller than the troll, its body a dark purple-blue, with a pair of enormous claws and a long tail, resembling a giant scorpion. ♢🐚 😳♖

In addition, the crystals on its giant claws and tail are very dazzling, emitting a clear blue-green light; these are Primal Crystal!

Could this be one of those Primal Scorpion I encountered before? Its head is enormous!

Now that I know the Primal Crystal is a type of World Rune, it must be incredibly powerful to have such a large piece of World Rune on it!

At the same time, a name came to mind: Crystal Vanguard Skarner.

I don't know if this scorpion is Skarner, but as long as it deals with the Void Creatures, that's fine. With it holding off the giant monsters, I can go find Amumu without worry.

I searched the area for ages and finally found him among a group of monsters.

Although Amumu can kill monsters, it doesn't mean he's immune to injury. At this moment, many of his bandages have cracked and are covered in a dark purple liquid.

Of course, the monsters weren't faring much better; a large number of them had already died, all having their life Power of Death.

I immediately rushed over, knocked the monster away, and stood protectively in front of him. "Are you alright, Mumu?"

"I was so scared! I thought they were going to eat me!"

"We can't travel slowly any longer; they're too powerful at dusk. Let me use the Wind Force to carry you away."

"Are you going to fly into the sky?"

"Yes! Don't worry, you won't fall!"

I had just gathered my Wind Force and hadn't even had a chance to rise into the air when suddenly a purple beam of light suppressed me.

The power of this beam of light was extremely strong; I struggled several times but couldn't break free!

Since gaining immense power, only the Celestial Chain and the Void Lord have ever exerted such overwhelming pressure on me. Who is this other?

Amumu looked at me in horror. "What's wrong, Yasuo? What happened?"

"I'm not quite sure either. Anyway, I can't move right now. Can you check if there are any powerful enemies around?"

"Hmm?" Amumu looked a little confused, as if he didn't know what to do.

"No need. You stay by my side and protect me. I'll break free from these constraints!"

Although the suppressive force is strong, it dissipates quickly; breaking free with all one's might should be no problem.

Just then, a magic orb came hurtling towards me. Amumu tried to block it, but it was too fast and he couldn't.

However, the magic orb wasn't aimed at me; instead, it struck the pillar of light on me. When the pillar of light was blocked by the magic orb, I successfully escaped!

Someone here is actually helping me. Who could it be?

Because it's nighttime, I can't see anything, but I can hear people talking:

"You always appear just in time! If it weren't for this desert creature's help, you would all be dead here today!"

"Stop sneaking around and launching ambushes! If you've got the guts, come out and fight me!"

"Hahaha... Don't worry, I will definitely appear after your daughter is assimilated."

"You traitor to humanity, I will personally kill you sooner or later!"

The conversation between the two was brief. After they finished speaking, the person called the "traitor" left, and the number of monsters around them decreased significantly.

Judging from their conversation, they seemed to be enemies, and one of them had even had his daughter kidnapped; the "traitor" wanted to assimilate her into Void Creatures.

Meanwhile, the Giant Scorpion was very powerful, quickly tearing the burrowing beast to shreds before turning its attention to the surrounding monsters.

I joined the fight, gradually clearing out the nearby monsters until the sandstorm subsided and the moonlight arrived.

The person who helped me break the suppression was nearby. Seeing him about to leave, I quickly went over to thank him, only to find that it was an acquaintance: Kassadin.

"Thank you for your help. My name is Yasuo, and I'm a member of the Human Alliance in Valoran."

"Stay away from here in the future. This is not a place you can easily set foot in."

Kassadin wasn't very friendly, but he didn't say anything offensive. Ultimately, he was just afraid we'd die here for no reason.

"The void is our common enemy; why fight it alone?"

"All I want is to save my daughter; everything else is none of my business."

Kassadin has a daughter? I didn't know that, but I do know something about his enemy, Malzahar.

"The power of many is always greater than the power of one person. Join us!"

"I've already said this is my own business; other things and other people have nothing to do with me."

"How about exchanging information? That would benefit both of us."

"I don't need your information, and I don't want to waste my time here with you."

"Hey, you're so stubborn. You're not the only one who's lost family members. Why don't you help others?"

Kassadin is stubborn, but I don't intend to give up, because I know he went to the Void and survived, and perhaps his experiences can be helpful to us.

Just then, a Hunchbacked Old Man walked over. He was wearing two wristbands on his arms, and the Primal Crystal on the wristbands were sparkling.

It seems this is the human form that the Giant Scorpion from before transformed into, probably a spirit like Tam:

"I didn't expect there to be humans living on this continent. Since you are all human, why do you still have to fight? Heh."

"I'm sorry, I was a bit too eager for revenge, and I spoke too rashly just now."

Kassadin remained silent for a while, then his attitude softened, perhaps touched by the old man's words, "We are all human."

"Tell me what you know about the void; we desperately need this information!"

"Actually, I don't have much to tell you, my memory isn't complete..." Kassadin revealed some of the things he knew:

It turns out he wasn't a modern person, but a mage from ancient Icathia, an ordinary citizen under the leadership of the Mage King.

The Kingdom of Icathia opened a rift in the void to fight the Shurima Empire, and the entire city was quickly swallowed up.

Kassadin was shopping on the street with his daughter when the sudden turn of events forced him to flee. However, he was struck by the energy of the void and lost consciousness shortly afterward.

When he woke up, he found himself in a terrifying world teeming with monsters. He himself was enveloped in a disgusting organization, and his daughter lay unconscious beside him.

Kassadin tried to break free of his restraints, but he couldn't. Soon, a familiar face appeared before him: Malzahar, the son of the Mage King.

Kassadin saw that Malzahar could move freely and hurriedly begged him for help, but he didn't expect that Malzahar would cut off the tissues attached to his daughter and take her away.

Before leaving, he said that he had become Void Prophet and would guide the Void to destroy humanity.

As for Kassadin's daughter, she will also become part of the Void.
