Chapter 249: Void Visitor
When Vicz, with one eye and three tentacles, "squeezes out" himself from the portal, both Rod and Hammerstone's expressions are ...... Subtle.
Well, to be exact, the expressions of both men were as painful as if they had swallowed some very unpleasant substance.
For Hammerstone, although Rhodes had interrupted in time for the last moment, the summoning ritual had been completed, and the "bloodthirsty king who existed in the endless shadows and darkness" had answered the call.
This is undoubtedly good news - but just now, the "king" was inexplicably killed and thrown straight out of the portal, and the initiator was this big-eyed ballball with tentacles.
(Rhodes had guessed wrong, the guy who was killed and thrown out wasn't some Void creature, it was just an unlucky shadow creature that had been hit by the pond fish...... )
What the hell?
This big eyeball with three tentacles is not something that Hammerstone wants to summon at all!
You must know that the reason why Hammerstone chose to summon this "king" with a big name is mainly because the weakness of this "king" has been mastered, and according to the classics of the True Knowledge Sect, Hammerstone can completely command and control him.
But now it's okay, the "king" died unexpectedly, this ruthless character who calls himself Viktz...... The devil knows what weakness he (it) has, friend or foe?
And for Rod, the arrival of Vikz was more troublesome.
Hammerstone doesn't know this Void Eye, but Rhodes does—this is the famous Void Eye, even among the countless Void creatures, this guy is the kind with a lot of cards!
And because of Vikz's special nature, Rod's fear of him is far beyond that of ordinary void creatures - compared with the simple and crude devouring evolution of the void predator Kazik, Vikz's understanding of decomposition is obviously more "high-end" and has more infinite possibilities.
What's more, as far as Rhodes knew, Vikz seemed to have a more or less connection with the past of Acacia, and Acacia's horror no longer needs to be repeated, so it seems that this big eye ...... I'm afraid I can't handle it myself.
All in all, Vikz's presence made the scene look a little awkward.
Although Karthas was still entangled with Mokai and Yorick, as the central area of the battle, Hammerstone and Rod were both wary and looked at Vikz very indifferently.
Especially Rod, he extinguished the flame in his hand as soon as possible, as if the guy who was still throwing fireballs into the portal just now was not himself.
Vikz, on the other hand, had no such unwelcome feeling of disturbing the fight—likewise, he didn't care about the attacks he had received before.
Vikz, who dragged himself out of the portal, did not enter the battle state for the first time, he just rolled his big eyes, looked around the situation, and made the most basic judgment.
"The Valoran main plane, an unknown confined space, full of energy, can be explored."
Everywhere the eye swept, even the ground was peeled off.
Vikz enjoyed the process of this analysis, and his three tentacles writhed happily as if some indescribably wonderful event was going on.
For Vikz, breaking down and analyzing everything he sees and scans with his eyes is the most wonderful thing – there is nothing more beautiful than acquiring this pure knowledge!
What Vikz didn't realize was that his actions directly ended the fight.
Karthas and Yorick and Mokai stopped fighting for the time being, Hammerstone and Rhodes stopped fighting, and everyone immediately focused on Vikz.
Without him, it was really Vikz's methods that were too terrible to completely frighten everyone.
Combined with his self-introduction, no matter how you look at it, you feel that this is a big fish from the endless void!
Vicz apparently didn't care about this, and he continued his quest, his big eyes wandering around, disassembling and analyzing everything in his sight.
Soon, Vikz completed a preliminary analysis of the entire guard hall.
"The structure of cold inorganic matter, the overall form is stable."
"Unknown patterns, unknown energy flows, may be a concrete manifestation of some kind of knowledge."
"Organisms with unknown combat effectiveness, 5 units to watch out for."
Vicz was analyzing the entire guard hall in Valoran's lingua franca, while also commenting on Rhodes and his party.
……………………
Looking at Vikz in front of him, Rod finally frowned tightly.
An existence that is beyond plan.
And there's a good chance that this guy himself can't afford to mess with.
Rhodes knew very well that Vikz was definitely not the one summoned by the hammerstone telemoning spell - after discovering the bloody gas on the corpse of the unlucky guy, Rod immediately confirmed that it was the demon that Rod wanted to summon.
But for some reason, Vikz came out halfway, appeared behind the portal, and then came to Valoran.
Thinking of all the descriptions and inferences about the creatures of the void, Rhodes was almost at a loss now.
Because according to the records of the last magical era (or the previous one, which generation Rod can't verify), Vikz is a very special existence among the void creatures.
He is not the vanguard of the Endless Void's erosion of Valoran, but more like a rigorous "scientist", feeling everything in his own unique way.
Decompose and analyze to turn physical existence into stored knowledge.
At first glance, it doesn't seem like it's dead anything.
But this analysis, unlike cleavage, is also effective against living things, which makes Vikz, whose goal is to "gain knowledge", "inadvertently" cause extremely horrific killings.
Vikz can analyze everything in order to get the knowledge he wants, and everything he analyzes will disappear into the light emitted by his eyeballs, which means that Vikz will shoot light at everything he is interested in and destroy them.
This kind of killing that "does not involve good or evil" is often more horrific than those with a clear purpose, so much so that the vast majority of those present trembled after figuring it out.
Then, just as Rhodes was trying to analyze what exactly this guy wanted to do, the lingua franca of the Vikz machine reappeared.
"Analysis of organic matter, energy analysis of energy body——"
With Vikz's words, a huge amount of energy began to gather in front of Vikz's eyes, and now it seems that his target is the most capable being in the eyes - Rod.
