Void Beetle Evolution Guide

Planck heard Viego's cries echoing in his mind, as if the place had turned into endless and boundless black fog, wailing endlessly on the vast scorched earth.

"I remember, she sank into the water... and then... and then..."

"I will snatch her back from the jaws of death. No one can defy fate. Gangplank, even if you are the one destined by fate, don't try to stop us from meeting again!"

Without the support of its magic power, the Dark Abyss crashed heavily into the sea, causing huge waves.

Fortunately, her chassis was broad and she used the wide deck to hold Planck firmly against her chest.

Gangplank stuck his greatsword into the deck and struggled to stand up using the support of the hilt.

Viego's love for Isolde suffocated him.

This love is so cruel, yet it conquers everything.

He was a qualified person and thought his will was strong enough, but it was still not as strong as Viego's infatuation.

——For love, Viego can really destroy the world.

He lost, completely.

Gradually, Planck could no longer stand up, and his hands were grabbing for the amulet uncontrollably.

Even though he resisted, the amulet was torn off and thrown aside.

The seal was lifted, and a black mist emerged from the amulet, transforming into a pale figure with eyes full of resentment.

He walked towards Planck, took a step, and the next moment he appeared in front of the latter, as if he had shrunk the distance into an inch.

"Do you think I'm a weak ghost? I've said it before, this amulet can't trap me! Love makes me invincible!"

Planck felt that he had regained control of his body, but along with it came the cold touch of the black mist passing through his skin.

Without the protection of the amulet, the mist was sucking the life out of this broken body. The ghosts hiding in it were roaring in hunger. Groups of zombies were ready to fight, waiting for the order from the Ruined King to come forward and devour its flesh and drink its blood.

"Stop." Viego raised a hand.

Thick fog, evil spirits, terrifying creatures - everything seemed to be frozen under the command of the Ruined King.

He half-knelt down, gently brushed away Planck's hand that was on the hilt of the sword, then put his own hand on it, tapping his knuckles as if playing distant memories on the piano keys.

Then he said: "As a leader and a warrior with great martial arts skills, if you are willing to submit to me, you can become a more powerful minister, rather than a ghost controlled only by hunger."

"Viago, you still don't understand the style of Bilgewater... Even if you are the one, you can't shit on my head. I, Gangplank, will never become someone else's vassal!" Gangplank laughed out loud, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I would rather die than be king."

"Then you go die."

Viego seemed disappointed. He drew out his giant sword, said something coldly, and went to find his queen, leaving Gangplank to be eaten by the evil spirits.

"I won't die here easily!"

Ghouls, Mist Walkers and Wraiths all rushed over to attack him. Gangplank was unwilling to let his fate end here, so he raised his weapon and prepared to fight to the death.

The thick fog was like a muddy swamp. He lifted his legs, which were as heavy as lead, and rushed towards the direction of the amulet.

Viego did not take the amulet away. It was not known whether he was so obsessed with his queen that he ignored other things, or he felt that the amulet was no longer a threat and could be ignored.

In short, the Heart of Baru became Gangplank's lifeline at this time. The only way to survive in this vast fog was to get the amulet back.

A demon with blood-red eyes pounced towards Planck. He used his arm to block the bite. The cold curse was injected into his blood vessels, and black veins spread out in a moment.

He didn't feel much pain, but more of a chill that went through his body. He put the muzzle of the gun close to the head and shot it in the head. There was no blood splattering, only a blue-green glow coming out of the blown-off skull.

Gangplank hardly paused for a moment, drew the Bilgewater scimitar from his waist, and chopped the neck of another Mist Walker. When he hit the undead, he felt a familiar sense of reality in his hand.

After hacking his way through, he finally found the amulet emitting emerald green light in the sticky fog. This amulet could protect him from surviving in the black fog.

However, just when Gangplank was a few steps away from the amulet, a sharp claw grabbed the amulet before him.

"Poor miserable soul, how does betrayal feel?"

The green light of the lantern illuminated his stunned face, and Gangplank raised his head and looked at Thresh's ruined face.

A ghostly fire was burning in the crook of his neck, and his pair of empty eye sockets were like black holes leading to nothingness - no sympathy, no mercy, and even less humanity.

Thresh's presence made the undead retreat, as if even they were afraid of Thresh's methods of torture.

"Are you here to laugh at me? Evil spirit."

“Maybe. Do you want it?” Thresh handed the amulet to Gangplank, but the latter just looked at it indifferently.

"It seems you have accepted your fate."

Gangplank knew that he was at the end of his rope, and the cunning Thresh was not as easy to fool as Viego.

"You have been deceiving me from the beginning. It is impossible for anyone to surpass Viego in willpower."

"Viogo is not invincible. His only weakness is his love for the queen. But you are too arrogant and you don't leave any way out. Failure is natural." Thresh's voice was still cold. He didn't seem angry, or perhaps this was within his expectations.

"Oh, when you get everything ready, I won't have a chance."

"You made my plan that I had been preparing for many years fail, but I didn't bet everything on you."

"Viego will not let you go."

“Then I’ll just stay out of their way.” Thresh grinned sinisterly. “Once I’ve collected my share of the reward, I’ll naturally leave. The world is so big, there’s no place I can’t go.”

Thresh raised the amulet high in his hand, and crushed it with force.

The emerald green teeth shattered and stretched out countless tentacles of black mist, pouring all the power it had absorbed from the black mist during this period into Thresh's body.

As if he was in a whirlpool, Thresh's desolate and dilapidated appearance changed drastically. His body, which had long been worn away by flesh and bones, began to grow, his withered skin became full and plump again, his rustled and tattered robes became whole and fit well again, and the lines of his abdominal muscles flowed with an evil blue-green glow.

Even the lost lantern and sickle reappeared in his hands.

He raised his head half an inch, and Planck saw the flames covering a pale human face on the evil skull, with a wicked smile that completely inherited the original charm.

"Finally! I can break free from the shackles of the curse and move freely out of the black fog."

Thresh laughed inwardly, and like a pervert, he reached out and stroked his neck. His head was finally not a mask floating on his neck. He had forgotten how good it felt to have flesh and blood...

"Is this what you want? To become a human again?" When Planck saw him like this, his mouth felt dry and his palms were wet with sweat.

Hiding evil thoughts under human skin makes this evil spirit even more terrifying. If he were to blend into the crowd, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"My pursuit is always an endless torture, and now the souls in the distance are waiting for me to harvest." Thresh showed an expectant smile: "I can see it, the souls on the other side of the sea are waving to me."

The Curse of Ruin prolonged and distorted his life and trapped him on the Shadow Island. He could only travel far away with the black fog during the Haunted Night, preventing him from displaying his skills.

In order to remove this restriction, he planned to let Gangplank control the power of the Ruined King, and wait for Gangplank to become weak so as to take over his body.

In this way, he can control the black fog and harvest the souls of the entire world.

Yet Planck failed.

In this situation, what Thresh needs to consider is to protect himself.

He had already betrayed Viego, and continuing to serve the mad king would be tantamount to walking into a trap, so he chose to leave after reaping the fruits of all his careful efforts.

Although it is impossible to harvest the souls of the entire world, being able to leave the Shadow Isles and move freely is already a great progress.

"Planck, I can see that you are unwilling to give up, so I will keep your soul until the next time we meet. Just struggle to live in order to welcome my arrival. Don't worry, if you help me, I will help you too..."

The fruit in front of you is not yet ripe, not sweet enough, and it is not time to harvest it.

Thresh repelled the undead who were eyeing him eagerly, leaving Gangplank alone on the Abyss.

Watching the vicious figure being swallowed by the thick fog, Planck finally fell down due to exhaustion and his eyelids drooped closed.

Chapter 159: The Ruined King

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

The black fog formed a huge inverted vortex in the air, which was so large that it covered the entire island, making people feel like they would be sucked into the sky in the next second.

And in the center of the vortex, a pale figure floated in the air, tentacles of black mist extending from his chest, controlling this unnatural storm.

"This is the enemy we are going to face..." Several people looked up at the Ruined King in the sky, looking more solemn than ever before.

Viego floated down from above and landed directly on the deck of the Palazzo Reggia, ignoring the Holy Mist.

His cold eyes swept through the crowd and finally fell on Senna.

This look made her feel violated. Senna immediately took out the Holy Stone Cannon from the black mist and raised it towards him, "You are not welcome here!"

Viego didn't pay attention to Senna's every move. He just said something and then stretched out his hand towards Senna.

"I have traversed death's marshes and tattered veils to find her. My queen, return her to me!"

Senna was about to pull the trigger, but Ahri held out her hand to signal her to stop.

She said to Viego, "I can see that you love your queen very much, but can you explain what this is?"

Ahri was holding a pair of strange stone beads, and under her magic, the sunstone released a curtain of white light, clearly revealing the queen's memories to the public.

"You're my queen! You should act like a queen!"Mei I Lin is not in the air, there is no Lin Yong...

"This is the best arrangement."

"Don't let you taint my memory of her!"

Viego roared and pushed out his palms. The tentacles of the black mist encroached and separated them from the darkness and coldness.

The next moment, the Ruined King broke out of the fog like a hungry black shadow and knocked Ahri away.

"Don't live in the hypocritical memories you made up!" Ahri swung her tail, changed her posture in the air and landed gracefully, baring her fangs and issuing a sharp warning, but Viego turned a blind eye to it.

"I have remembered...I have remembered everything. Don't try to deceive me again."

After saying that, the Sword of the King slowly appeared in his hand.

Ahri threw a spirit orb at Viego.

He raised one hand high, and the thick fog rushed forward.

The magic ball was corrupted instantly and turned into billowing black smoke.

The holy mist was completely devoured, and darkness enveloped everyone like a shroud. All that could be heard were the cries of the undead and the howling of the black fog.

Senna's eyes burned with green flames, and she searched the fog with a serious gaze. In the blink of an eye - a pale ghost figure was already in front of her!

Before she could pull the trigger, a feeling of powerlessness came over her.

Viego raised one hand, and Senna felt a huge force pulling at her soul. A white ball of light appeared in her chest and was pulled out of her body bit by bit.

"Senna!"

Isolde's scream came from the ball of light. Senna was powerless to stop her, but the sound made Viego more excited.

"Don't worry, my queen, my love," he comforted her. "I have been searching for you, and now I finally see you!"

Suddenly, a plasma bomb hit the back of Viego's hand, and the burning pain interrupted the looting ceremony.

The ball of light drilled back into Senna's body. The Ruined King was shocked and angry, and turned to look at Kaisa who attacked him.

The strange shell prevented the penetration of black fog and isolated the Curse of Ruin from outside.

"hiss......"

During this distraction, Senna inserted her hand into the hole in Viego's chest.

The source of the black fog was in Viego's chest. Endless dark power was drawn into Senna's body and then injected into the cannon.

The holy stone cannons unfolded into a sacred array, and the two opposite forces of holy light and shadow merged perfectly in her body. The intertwined power of light and darkness emanated from Viego's body, clearing away all the black fog behind him.

Viego fell to his knees as if he had been hit hard, his eyes wide open in shock, as if he could no longer find the meaning of sadness.

Others seized the opportunity to suppress him. Elise shot out spider silk to entangle his limbs, Ahri threw out fox fire to burn his body, and Sarah shot out bullets to shatter his knees...

As the chaotic attacks fell on him, Viego's body was instantly riddled with holes and it seemed that he was at the end of his rope.

After a brief pause, his shoulders began to tremble the next moment, as if he was a volcano about to erupt, filled with endless rage.

"How dare you come between me and my love? No one can stop me!"

The Ruined King's Sword disappeared from his hand, then reappeared above his head, falling like the sword of Damocles and nailing deeply into the deck under his feet.

A blinding corpse-green light gushed out from the cracks and a powerful energy burst radiated from it, drowning everyone.

Coming back to her senses from the intense shock, Sarah felt as if the whole world was spinning, and her head and stomach were filled with a strong feeling of nausea.

She propped up her upper body with her elbows and saw the only figure standing on the field. The dizziness stretched it out and divided it into several overlapping shadows.

Viego's body had been restored to its original state by the black mist. At this moment, he stretched out a hand towards Senna, who was lying on her back, and peeled off the ball of light representing the fragment of Isolder's soul from her chest.

Senna was completely powerless to resist, and her facial features were twisted in pain.
