Chapter 703 Breakthrough
After saying this, Kasha fell silent and Julian's eyes were filled with uncertainty. Seeing this scene, Malzahar curled up his lips and stopped talking, calmly waiting for the two of them to make their choice.
Eternal life is an eternal topic in the human world.
Because he was once a human being, and because he had seen too many people, Malzahar knew more clearly what kind of temptation "eternal life" had for him.
Even the humblest beggar can dream of eternal life;
Even a powerful leader such as Noxus still cannot shake off his desire for immortality.
Its meaning is clear even to Julian, who has lost most of his memory.
So Malzahar was not worried that his persuasion would not be effective - what's more, in order to persuade the couple, he also deliberately added a second important ingredient, love.
For Malzahar, who has a pair of eyes that can see the truth of the world, love is just one of human desires, even the most boring desire.
But if he could get two powerful thugs in exchange, he wouldn't mind packaging them up and putting them on the table.
If you want to ask about the power of the combination of the two, perhaps you only need to take a look at Julian's eyes full of fascination.
He knows very well what human weaknesses are.
In his early career of prophecy and divination, he had seen too many people, ranging from powerful people to traffickers and pawns. No one could escape the control of desire.
Desire means weakness,
Weakness means it can be defeated, exploited, and manipulated.
For Julian and Kai'Sa, just saying that they value them very much is not enough to show their importance.
One of them is the Daughter of the Void, who is unique among all, and the other is the Son of Destiny whose fate even the Void cannot predict. If they can get help from these two people at one stroke, the time before final annihilation will come will be greatly shortened.
Eight years ago, feeling disappointed and empty of humanity, Malzahar abandoned everything outside of him and left the Shurima city of Amakra. Following the 'sacred revelation' of the void, he came to the ruined city of Aika, which fell to the ancient war.
West Asia.
There, staring into the depths of the rugged abyss, he opened his mind to wavering thoughts, desperate for enlightenment.
Void responded to him, gave him great power, and allowed him to see the way to end all earthly suffering. Since then, he has become Void's most devout and fanatical believer.
After returning to Shurima, Malzahar developed followers in this desert kingdom.
In eight years, from Antasil at the southern tip of the continent to Nashrame and Belgun in the north, even the invading Noxians knew the reputation of the 'Prophet'.
Even the toughest villagers in the most remote wilderness will obediently sacrifice livestock as sacrifices to satisfy the hunger of the void.
However, this speed never satisfied Malzahar.
Although there are thousands of believers, in Malzahar's eyes, he is still a lonely traveler.
Most of the people who believe in the 'prophet' are ignorant, poor and endlessly greedy.
Most of the people who join the team of followers are out of fear of the illusion of the void, or are profiteers trying to make profits from it.
In the eyes of Malzahar, these people are no different from animal sacrifices. Are they still trying to get more, even eternal life?
Oh!
When the day of divine annihilation arrives, these people will be the first to present themselves on the altar.
Only a perfect warrior like Kai'Sa, who is favored by the void, and a perfect person like Julian, who even the void desires, are qualified to be his companions on the road to great redemption.
For this reason, Malzahar was far more patient and tolerant of the two men's wariness and offense than ordinary people.
However, a mocking voice still made him feel angry.
"Ha...Have you finally been exposed?"
Suddenly raising her head, Kasha's lips showed undisguised sarcasm:
"The reason why you came to us is probably for Julian, right?"
Narrowing his eyes, Malzahar remained silent and did not answer.
Julian on the side turned to look at Kasha blankly, his face full of confusion: "For... me!?"
"Don't let him fool you Julian!"
A slight scolding interrupted Julian's fantasy, and Kasha's eyes were full of coldness and calm:
"Even gods can't promise eternal life, right? Just by saying something, you want us to abandon our identity as humans and turn our backs to the embrace of the void. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
"Think about it, I've been in this hellish place for eight years and I've never seen a single human being. But less than three days after you showed up here, this guy came to the door on his own. What's the purpose? Why do you still need me?"
Say more?"
Catching Julian's gaze, Kasha said with great certainty: "It's you, or rather the power contained in your body!"
"strength?"
Malzahar's eyes turned cold after his attempt was revealed, but Julian, who was looking at Kaisha, still looked confused: "Do I have any power?"
"Haven't you noticed yet? Where's your alertness!?"
"Your memory has recovered a bit. You should be able to feel the difference between you and others, right? Not talking about others, it's just you and me."
Kasha was a little dissatisfied with Julian's stupidity, but she still explained:
"My power comes from the void, from this living coat on my body. But what about you? No matter in terms of physical strength, energy or speed, you are far superior to ordinary people! Especially the speed, you took me to avoid the other side
The speed displayed by the big monster when chasing it cannot be matched even by stimulating the power of the void with all my strength. Isn't this speed enough to show how special you are?"
Seeing Julian's face full of confusion, Kasha said: "Do you still remember what happened when you fell off the cliff just now? Aren't you surprised why my power recovered so suddenly?"
"Yeah." Julian had always been full of doubts about this matter. Seeing Kasha suddenly mention it, he nodded unconsciously.
"It's because of you."
"Me?" Julian's eyes widened, and he looked at Kaisha's purple eyes in surprise. If he was talking about Superman's strength and speed alone, he could understand it. But Kaisha also added the reason for his recovery of physical strength.
It was beyond his understanding.
"Yes, it's you." Taking a deep breath, Kasha looked into those gray gem eyes, a hint of helplessness flashed across her eyes: "You may not know how tempting you are to me... No
As for what you are thinking, put away your dirty thoughts! Sooner or later, I will pay you back for your slap!"
Seeing Julian's face turn red instantly, Kasha seemed to see through what he was thinking, and couldn't help but scold him,
It wasn't until the look on Julian's face was replaced by anger that she regained her composure, reached out and stroked Julian's cheek and said:
"You know, the reason why I have been able to live in this place without water or food for eight years is because of the living skin on my body. It provides the power of the void and also provides enough energy for me to survive.
energy."
