Runeterra: I really know a little bit about everything

Chapter 7 I come back for those who can’t come back!

On a windless night, Zuo Chi transformed into a black shadow, leaping rapidly between buildings.

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

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

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

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

But for some unknown reason, the candlelight was very dim, as if it might go out at any time.

Zuo Chi knew that it should be the utility room where the 'girl cursed by the void' lived as the village chief mentioned.

Although this hut is located in the west of the village, it is far away from the houses where the villagers live here.

Not only that, in the direction where these villagers faced the hut, a fence full of spikes was actually erected!
The fence that exists in the village cannot be used to prevent void creatures.

There is only one thing to guard against.

That cabin!

Seeing this, Zuo Chi couldn't help but frown slightly.

After crossing the fence in front of him, Zuo Chi walked toward the hut.

On the other side, inside the dilapidated hut.

A figure wrapped in a dark purple carapace was sitting in front of the bed with a hunched body.

The carapace on her head slowly parted toward both sides, and the face hidden under the carapace was revealed.

It was a girl with purple hair, and behind her was a pair of exoskeletons that continuously emitted purple light.

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

At this time, her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and her usually determined eyes now took on a look of deep pain.

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

If it weren't for the protection of the carapace, the wound would have almost severed her waist!
Not only that, around the wound, the purple light filled with 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, her purple eyes full of helplessness.

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

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

Go to the villagers outside for help?

I'm afraid that as soon as she walked out of the house, the villagers aimed their bows, arrows and spears at her.

However, how could she repair this almost fatal injury without the help of others.

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

Alone, he died fighting against the void.

I went out to look for a way to heal myself tonight, but found nothing.

On the contrary, she once again encountered a large number of void insects, which also made her already seriously injured body even more exhausted.

The severe pain coming from his waist and the feeling of weakness caused by ischemia caused the carapace on the body to gradually shrink.

What followed was a pain like pinpricks on the skin.

It doesn't want to die just yet.

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

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

But not long after, Malzahar, the Prophet of the Void, summoned the void beneath the ground and swallowed her entire village completely.

At that time, she was only ten years old!

In the endless darkness, she could only listen desperately as the voices of the surrounding villagers dimmed little by little.

From that moment on, she embarked on the road of survival alone in the vast darkness.

She didn't know how long she had been walking hard in the darkness, but finally a glistening purple light appeared in front of her.This purple light is undoubtedly hope for a survivor who has been walking in the darkness for an unknown length of time!
She ran with all her strength towards the place where the purple light was.

But when she came closer, she discovered to her horror that the light of hope was there.

It was clearly a void nest made of countless void bugs piled together!

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, trying to devour her completely.

It was also at this moment of life and death that she raised the dagger given to her by her father.

After a violent roll, she stabbed the dagger into the heart of the void bug and at the same time pulled it to roll towards the depths of the void.

After that, she completely lost consciousness and had no idea what happened next.

When she woke up again, the strange carapace of the Void Bug had completely attached to her body, becoming her second layer of skin.

In this dangerous void, this strange carapace gave her the ability to survive!
From that moment on, she spent every moment fighting against void creatures while looking for a way home!

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

However, although the void carapace on her body gave her the ability to kill the void, it also deprived her of the right to interact normally with humans.

She turned into a monster that everyone shouted to beat.

People even painted her portrait on the walls to remind passersby to be wary of this monster.

And when she faced everything, her eyes were always so plain.

She will not give up killing void creatures because of people's hostility, nor will she become an enemy of them because of people's rejection!

Just like now.

Although the people in this village treat her like a monster and be wary of her.

But when the little girl in the village was about to be swallowed by void creatures, she would still choose to save the little girl.

Although he will be pierced by the bone spurs of the top void creature Korgas!

She always remembered that she came back not for herself!

She came back for those who can't come back!

From beginning to end, she never betrayed this belief.

But now, her confrontation with the void may be coming to an end.

The hideous wound on her waist could not be repaired by herself, and she could not find anyone willing to help her.

She could only feel it quietly, feeling the breath of void at the wound slowly drain away her vitality.

Gradually, the girl lay on her back on the small wooden bed, her purple eyes filled with a little water.

"Finally, can you rest?"

"Boom boom boom!"

Suddenly, a knock on the door made the girl sit up suddenly from the bed.

She could clearly sense that there was a person standing in front of her door!
This situation would have been impossible to happen before.

After all, who would come looking for a void monster!
But now, it happened, and it was at this special moment!
In this regard, the girl almost only had one thought in her mind.

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

A sad, bitter smile appeared on her lips, and she stood up and walked towards the door.

Maybe it's time to leave this village.

At least, he will die in the battle with the void creatures.

"Squeak!"

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

But what Zuo Chi said next made the girl stunned.

"Let me help you heal, okay?"
