Chapter 76 Curiosity
Kaisha saw a strange light coming from outside the window, as if it was from outside the sky.
The light hit the ground to form a purple spot, and Kane and Casardine hid against the wall.
"What's coming out?"
Just as Kesha was about to stand up, he heard Kane shouting in a nearly trembling voice: "Kesha, don't move!"
"You can make a sound, but you must close your eyes and don't move anytime you move!"
Kesha was stunned by the fear in Kane's voice, then suddenly closed her eyes and even put on her helmet.
Kane looked at the monster in the mirror.
It slapped the distinct tentacles, making a burst sound like a long whip, approaching the tower at a constant speed.
The huge one-eye without eyelids rested in front of the tower, and it seemed to want to squeeze its eyes in, but the narrow window could not accommodate its pupils.
Boom... Boom!
The lightning flashed, illuminating the outline of the huge black shadow outside the building.
Its main body is a huge purple one-eyed eye, wrapped in a carapace, stretching out three tentacles that are constantly slapping, moving constantly.
The eyeless eye cast an unknown gaze into the tower. Just looking at each other in a flash through the mirror made Kane almost crazy. His reason was like a spool thrown into the dark night, being scattered by the crazy thread and trying to shout out.
But he didn't dare to shout, he suppressed his anger between his teeth, afraid that a little movement would make Vikz's blurred vision find focus.
By studying that strange manuscript, Kane knew that as long as they did not move, Vickz would not be able to truly "see" them.
This ancient creation in the void has collected huge and vast knowledge for nearly ten thousand years, but time has not been included in it.
This is a knowledge that only the owner of the tower understands, and he is no longer there, and Vikz has no way of knowing it.
But even so, Kane couldn't be fearless.
If Vikz is convinced that there is life here, then they may still be exposed.
And when exposed to the Eye of Void, there is only the ending of annihilation.
Vickz's pupils moved instantly, slowly scanning the ruins in front of him.
What is reflected in the tower is the spot of light moving around the tower, searching for traces of life.
Then, Vickz's pupils stopped, and the light spots enveloped Kesha, who was closed with his eyes and motionless.
Intuition tells Vikz that there seems to be something in the void it sees.
It was a very wonderful sensing, as if it was far away in the sky and close to the eyes.
Seeing this scene, Kane said in a crying voice: "Don't move, don't move, please..."
Kesha couldn't hear Kane's voice, she could only feel a strange gaze covering her.
At this moment, she felt the same fear as Kane.
Her soul was shaking on such a far-reaching edge, and the monster's ruthless hunger was dragging her.
If it weren't for the whole body covering her skin armor, the moment she was in contact with her eyes, she would have become a soulless body.
At the critical moment of life and death, Kesha believed in Kane. Even though she felt that she had been targeted by annihilation, she did not move for a moment, like a sculpture.
However, Vikz's temptation did not stop, and his endless desire for knowledge drove it to clarify the mystery in front of him.
Why do life throbbing in an empty place? Will it also have hallucinations?
It wanted to find out, and it stretched out its tentacle of seeking knowledge towards the nothingness in front of it.
The tentacles that were crackling with electricity reached towards the tower. At the moment when everything was about to darkness, Kane closed his eyes in despair, and waited for annihilation in his fate.
But unexpectedly, Vikz's tentacles passed through the tower and touched nothing.
Really just an illusion?
Vikz looked at his tentacle tip with his bulging eyes, thinking, trying to explain his feelings with his vast knowledge reserves.
Finally, it got two answers.
Mirage - It has seen mirages in the desert more than once, and it knows that this is a virtual image formed by the light reflected from a distant place refracted by the sky.
Photographing of electric light - Some inorganic substances in the ruins have the ability to store and release images. Under certain conditions, lightning once recorded certain scenes, but now they are released in lightning.
Looking at the lightning that never stopped in the sky, although I felt that these two answers were not close enough to the truth, Vickz could not find a closer one.
The throbbing of life that I sensed before was no longer moved, like a dead object.
In the end, Vickz regarded this as a natural phenomenon he had seen for the first time, and turned around and drifted to the distance with a dwindling interest.
After Vikz really left through the mirror, Kane's tense muscles relaxed, and his whole body suddenly fell to the ground with force.
Everything I experienced just now was so terrible. The horror that I would be discovered as long as I moved was deeply embedded in his fear, making his legs and feet weak.
Kasadin was not much better, so he knelt down and supported his hands on the ground, his godless eyes wide open, and his vicissitudes of face were dripping with water. I don’t know if it was tears or sweat.
Then Kane helped Kasardin up, staggered towards Kasard, and asked as he walked, "Kesard, are you okay?"
"I... can I move..." Hearing the movements around him, Kesha made a cowardly and suspicious voice.
She didn't know that the danger was over.
"It's okay." Kane touched Kaisha's exposed hair, and barely squeezed out a smile.
The latter was still unclear, and he hugged Kane silly because of the fear left in his heart.
After a while, Kasardin walked over with his sore eyes, and he sighed: "Even Viks can't see through the magic here, it seems that the tower is safe for the time being."
"But we still have to be more alert. God knows when it will come back." Kane and Kesha separated and walked to the window again.
Yes, why can't Vikz see through? It has obviously discovered it and has reached in with its tentacles, so why did it just pass through it?
It seems that the magic on this tower is even more powerful than he thought.
After this emergency of Vikz's "visiting", the three of them became more concerned about the outside world. Kane felt the pressure and his research on the manuscript became even more crazy.
Finally, a month later, he understood the meaning of each symbol of the basic formula in the technique, and in theory, he could accelerate or slow down the time in local areas!
Don't be too happy too early, it's just a theory. Kane is still the same, and he will kneel as soon as he fights.
After leaving Akasia, sooner or later he will find that he cannot release his magic but lacks the necessary conditions.
But here, he could only continue to rely on books to numb himself - if he brought out ancient magic and carried forward it, it would be considered a great merit.
