Void Beetle Evolution Guide

"You'd better stay away from me now, otherwise if I lose my concentration for a moment, the swarm will devour you."

Kasha originally wanted to speak in a nice way, but as soon as she opened her mouth, her words turned into a harsh warning. She really couldn't like this kind of woman who lacked reverence and made her worry at all.

"Actually, what I want to say is that when Delia counted the supplies, she found that there was not enough food. The attack by the Sand Gang caused us considerable losses. If you could leave a sand tiger's tail for us, that would be a great help." Cassiopeia explained.

"Go back and wait."

Kashado said nothing, but silently dug out a sand tiger tail that was more than a meter tall from the sand, and threw it heavily into the crowd from a distance of more than ten meters.

Her extraordinary strength left the Noxian soldiers dumbfounded. They pretended not to see anything and quickened their work.

Kassa didn't care about their opinions. She stretched out her hand and an eyeless bee landed on her hand, leaving a gold coin and flew away.

"I found it on the bandit leader, so it's a bargain for you." Wild Hunter said, "You can get money after enjoying the massage. You have stumbled upon all the good things in the world."

"You can't eat metal, so it's mine. I'll use the money to get you a massage later, it's worth it."

"You are stuck here!"

Kassa shrugged and laughed with her back to the crowd, showing a completely different attitude from before.

Cassiopeia saw all of this and gave a meaningful smile in the shadow of the canyon.

After a while, the only two remaining carriages were dug out of the sand, and the group packed up and continued on their way.

Chapter 42 I'm Not a Tsundere

====================================

In order to avoid feeling uncomfortable when together, Kassa chose to sit alone on top of the carriage, regardless of the wind and sun, and monitor Cassiopeia's movements.

From dawn to dusk, she passed the time in ways other than watching Delia carve a piece of wood with her knife, observing Cassiopeia feeding her pets, listening to the two women chatting, and then exchanging her own views on these things with the Wild Hunt.

She heard that there were merchants in Noxus who searched the world for all kinds of rare and exotic animals and brought them to their capital, the Immortal Fortress. Well-tamed ones were sold to nobles as pets, and wild and untamable ones were thrown into the Colosseum, making a fortune.

Kai'Sa was no longer the little girl who would cry uncontrollably when she saw a K'mi-Lorra preying on a Skarlosh. She just thought that the money these Noxians made was too easy to earn. The Wild Hunt was thinking about how to get all these rare and exotic animals. With so many species, he would definitely be able to evolve some new abilities.

At nightfall, the convoy arrived at a desert salt mine for rest.

The ground here is made of hard and rugged white ore, like broken glass all over the ground, arranged in vortexes and gathered into many tall salt towers. These salt towers look like giant umbrella mushrooms and are natural shelters that can be used to block the strong sunlight during the day or the strong wind at night.

"What a strange thing, is this also caused by wind erosion?" Kassa couldn't understand how an inanimate object could grow into this shape.

“It doesn’t look like it,” said the Wild Hunt.

As they finished talking, they heard their guide Delia explaining to the expedition team: "These are all the work of rock bears. The salt tower was originally cylindrical, but the rock bears ate all the bottom layer and could not reach the top layer, so over time it formed a mushroom shape."

After knowing the truth, Kasa suddenly lost interest in the Salt Tower, but the unsolved mysteries can still arouse people's curiosity.

The Noxians lit a bonfire and set up a barbecue under the salt tower. They were grilling the sand tiger tail that Kassadin left for them. They sprinkled spices from all over the world on it. Waves of aroma mixed with oil wafted over, tempting Kassadin's long-dormant taste buds.

Seeing Kassa alone and away from the crowd, Cassiopeia put the first batch of roasted meat on a plate and brought it to her personally.

"Thank you for keeping watch for us. Come, Miss Kasa, have some too. The meat is roasted just right."

Kassa was stunned for a moment. She just subconsciously paid attention to the movements around her and did not do anything special to keep watch. She stayed alone just because she didn't fit in. She didn't expect Cassiopeia to find excuses to exonerate her.

She took the barbecue but didn't eat it immediately. Seeing this, Cassiopeia was about to leave and let Kassa stay alone, but she stopped her.

"Come here with me."

Kasa said without question, and then walked towards the center of the salt mine. Cassiopeia was delighted and stepped onto the rough road in her high heels.

They came to a salt tower, and Kasa pointed at the mushroom-shaped white pillar in front of her and asked, "What do you see?"

Cassiopeia squinted her eyes and looked carefully, but found no difference between the salt tower in front of her and the others.

She wondered, could it be that Kasa was hinting at something? But what else could she associate with this shape of salt tower?

"I told you. Those who don't know how to fear the desert don't know the desert at all."

Kasa ridiculed Cassiopeia's ignorance, snatched the water bag from her waist, walked to the salt tower, opened the cork, and sprinkled some on it.

The water poured onto the salt tower, quickly seeped into the cracks and was quickly absorbed.

Click.

A semicircular crack suddenly appeared at the base of the salt tower, and it looked like it was about to collapse.

Cassiopeia opened her eyes wide and watched the broken fragments roll and turn a little bit, revealing the brown scales hidden under the white salt mine, and then stretched out a thick arm.

The thing continued to turn around, and its body as huge as a giant bear stood up. Its thick limbs were covered with brown scales, and its back was covered with many rough and sharp salt crystal cones like a hedgehog. It was roaring angrily at the group of humans who disturbed its sleep.

"Back off, this is Rock Bear!"

Delia, who had been keeping an eye on the two of them, rushed over immediately after hearing the rock bear's roar. She brought two dragon dogs with her, and protected Cassiopeia on her left and right.

"I'm sorry, it was my negligence. I didn't notice that there was a rock bear hiding here." Delia held the sword with both hands. She was not only a desert guide, but also a swordsman. However, this time she did not do her job well.

Some rock bears hibernate in salt towers and wake up automatically when they have enough water. The salt crystal armor on their backs blends in with the salt towers so well that it is difficult to distinguish them with the naked eye.

Delia was fooled by the rock bear's disguise, and even Kassa only noticed the living creature hiding here with her void vision. She couldn't imagine how serious the consequences would be if the rock bear attacked the camp in the middle of the night.

Although hibernating rock bears are not easy to wake up, there is no guarantee that some soldier will get up at night and run to the salt tower to urinate, causing the rock bear to go crazy and destroy everything. Even if they are lucky enough to escape, where can they run without a carriage?

"Step aside."

As Kasa spoke, her shoulder pods lifted up and began to accumulate light. Feeling the burning temperature, Delia stepped aside tactfully, and the two dragon dogs also tucked their finned tails and jumped aside.

Under the threat of death, the rock bear who had just woken up suddenly woke up, his eyes suddenly became much clearer, he roared, lay down, and ran away in shame.

Watching the rock bear escape, Kassadin put away the pod and the blazing light dimmed.

She sighed silently in her heart.

Poor rock bear! If Cassiopeia hadn't suddenly said that she was helping to keep watch, she wouldn't have had the time to prove her discovery and come and disturb the rock bear's hibernation.

If anyone is to blame, blame Cassiopeia. She always comes up to her to flatter her, and she feels uncomfortable listening to that, so she takes this opportunity to warn that woman.

However, her actions seemed to have no effect. Cassiopeia did not reflect on herself afterwards, but came up to her with a smile on her face.

"Thank you Miss Kasa for your help again. I don't know what I would have done without you along the way. The meat in your hands has gotten cold. I'll go and bake you a new batch."

"No, it's still warm."

Kassa still had an attitude of "no strangers allowed". She climbed to the top of the salt tower with the barbecue and refused to talk to anyone.

After Cassiopeia and the others returned to the camp, Kassadin took off her helmet and chewed the meat hard, venting her inner dissatisfaction.

"Doesn't she understand what I'm saying? I told her not to get close to me, why is she still coming closer to me?"

"Didn't you ask her to please you?" Wild Hunter asked gloatingly, "Birthday celebrations are just a bunch of people surrounding one person. I think that's fine."

"Can't you please others in a way that they like? I just don't like the way she pretends to be close to you but actually has a purpose to get close to you. Also, the way she talks and interacts with others is not natural at all."

The Wild Hunter was silent for a while, then suddenly said bluntly: "You act like that tsundere."

"Proud?"

"He usually speaks with a sharp tongue and has a tough and arrogant attitude, but he always responds to requests and sometimes even offers to help... He is the type of person who appears cold on the outside but is warm on the inside."

"I'm not a tsundere!" Kaisa's face turned red after hearing his description, "I really don't like her."

She is indeed the type of person who appears cold on the outside but is warm on the inside, but that is to keep others at a safe distance from her. She generally does not deliberately target others.

If she hadn't heard about Cassiopeia from the Wild Hunt, Kassa would have thought she just had no sense of boundaries. But after learning that Cassiopeia's gestures of kindness were all for a purpose, she was like an allergy and could no longer remain calm with her.

She subconsciously viewed Cassiopeia as an enemy.

"Then don't try to be sour-looking. That's just a waste of energy. Just be perfunctory and the other person will stop being sour over time."

"Is this okay?"

Wild Hunt is an understatement, Kaisa always feels unreliable. Then,

She was indeed right.

"Of course not." Wild Hunter changed the subject, "She is clearly interested in you. She will definitely test you more frequently in the future. It has nothing to do with whether you are a tsundere or not."

"I told you I'm not a tsundere!"

It was late at night, and Kassadin was awakened from her sleep by the tingling sensation from her skin armor.

She heard the sound of gentle footsteps approaching her cautiously.

"Who's here?" Kasa asked in a low voice.

"It's Cassiopeia." The Wild Hunt replied: "Just keep pretending to sleep, I'll keep an eye on her."

Kasha wondered what she wanted to do, and remained motionless in her sleeping position. She did not take off her mask, and was not worried about being discovered that she was taking a nap.Mei is here, there is no Kong Yong, there is no Lin You Yong...

Then she felt something covering her. It was a blanket of very good quality, made of the fur of some creature.

After doing all this, Cassiopeia returned to the car without any unnecessary movements and without waking up Kassa.

"She stayed up late at night just to cover me with a blanket?" Touching the thick blanket, Kasa thought, "It's probably another way to win people's hearts."

"Even if you know that she is trying to buy people's hearts, but if this happens too often, can you still resist changing your opinion of her?" asked the Wild Hunter.

"I won't let my guard down."

Testimonials

==================

This book is about to be put on the shelves, and the paid chapters will be updated after 12 o'clock tonight.Mei is here, Lin Kongyong is not here, Lin Youyong is not here...

First of all, I would like to thank editor Wuxin for his rescue, and all the readers for their great support.

I originally planned to start a LOL fanfiction to take advantage of the popularity of Twin Cities, but I found that my content has little connection with Twin Cities, so I am afraid it will not get much popularity. It happened that the editor recommended me to try this site, and the scale of the site is more suitable for the theme.

After thinking about it, let’s do it.

Then, because I was not familiar with the pace of the site's release, I put the cool and astringent points at the end, which led to a significant drop in the number of readers. (I will make up for it as soon as it is released!)

But dear readers, please rest assured that if nothing unexpected happens, this book will be updated and completed normally.

If it is updated, 1 words will be updated on the first day of the release, and 5 words will be updated every day thereafter. (The manuscript in stock is only words.)

In fact, it is better to have some drafts saved, because I have minor health problems from time to time, and I am afraid that it will affect the normal updates.

Finally, I would like to ask all readers to vote for me more monthly. Your support is my greatest motivation!

Chapter 43: Golden Centaur

===============================

Three days later, the convoy arrived at its destination.

A tall rock pillar that was narrow at the top and wide at the bottom suddenly protruded from the endless desert, and obvious carving marks could be seen from afar. The sheepskin map in Delia's hand was marked with a similar pattern.

"This should be it." After carefully comparing it, she put on her equipment and asked others to get out of the car and follow.

Because most of the convoy was destroyed during the attack by sand bandits, only seven people got off the remaining two vehicles. Apart from the guides Delia, Cassiopeia and Kassadin, there were only four Noxians left.Mei is here. I miss Lin Kongyong but not Lin Youyong...

However, they were well-equipped, wearing armor, and carrying enchanted engineering shovels in addition to crossbows and gunpowder, so they did not look too shabby.

Kassa watched Delia walk under the rock pillar while vigilantly observing the surrounding environment to make sure there were no attackers lurking under the gravel. Cassiopeia followed her wisely. She didn't have to do anything. She hired the entire team with her money. She only needed to sit back and enjoy the success in the safest position.

"This should be a tomb, the entrance is here!" Delia walked around the rock pillar and deduced the location of the entrance through the carvings on it.

The entrance she was talking about was a triangular stone gate, most of which was covered under the yellow sand, with only a tiny tip at the top left exposed. Fortunately she observed carefully, otherwise she would not have known how to start.

Several soldiers took shovels and dug under the leadership of Delia. As the employer, Cassiopeia naturally did not have to participate in such physical work. She came to Kasa and handed her a beautifully shaped dagger. Noxus's craftsmanship looked expensive.

"Ms. Kasha, if there is no gift for your birthday, it always feels like something is missing. But this happened suddenly and there is no time to prepare. Please accept this dagger as a gift."

Another dagger. Kasa was stunned for a moment when she saw the dagger handed to her by Cassiopeia. She remembered that her father had given her a dagger as a birthday gift before, but it was lost on the day of the sacrifice. When she came to her senses, she had unknowingly reached out to take the dagger.

Kassadin actually didn't want this gift. The dagger was lost, and it couldn't be replaced by another one. She didn't lack weapons. These metal objects couldn't be swallowed by her skin armor, and they were inconvenient to carry. They were a burden to her.

"Tsk, this dagger is not as simple as it looks." Just as she was thinking about how to refuse, the Wild Hunter suddenly reminded her. He remembered that when Cassiopeia backstabbed Sivir in the future, she used a dagger.

Doesn't look simple? Then smell it. A strange smell came from the dagger. It looked new, but there was a lingering smell of rust.

"There's a smell on it," Kassa said bluntly.

"After all, I carry it close to my body, so it's inevitable that it's stained with sweat." Kassadin was talking about the scent of magic, but Cassiopeia mistakenly thought it was her own body odor and couldn't help but explain.

"It must be an important item that you carry with you. Miss Cassiopeia, you don't have to give it to me with such pain."

The dagger was stuffed back by Kassadin without any explanation. Cassiopeia smiled to hide her embarrassment. Her good manners prevented her from saying much, but she slightly increased the strength of her hand holding the black-bellied viper.
